I am in need of a favor. A legitimate psychic, or someone with equivolent talent. One who can manage the inner workings of a vampire.

Payment is no object, but I would prefer someone who could meet with me soon. Tonight, would be optimal.

	I ain't never tried reading a vampire before. Don't suppose it'd be much different than reading anybody else. Have to say, you seem a bit more ... ~~human~~ people, than the vampires I'm used to. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I've been told by psychics of my world that it's more difficult. No biological synapses firing, or some medical... thing. So I've been told, here. I was a diplomat, in my world. Old habits, I suppose. But I assure you, if I meant you harm, I wouldn't be so forthcoming with what I was, or what I was after. Have you experience in reading dreams?

	Well biology's got nothing to do with the way it should be done. At least, not the way I learned it. I know you aren't going to try anything, can tell that even without reading you. Dreams is even easier than tea leaves and tarot, and I know both of those same as breathing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Then I would be in your debt, if you would be so kind as to meet with me. Before arriving in this... place, I had not dreamed for going on a century. At least not this sober. I would appreciate an attempt at arriving at an answer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sounds like something I might be able to help with. I've got a little old tea-and-readings shop [London address] Or if you aren't the traveling sort I can come to you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I am in based in London myself. I'm in Paris, currently, but I can make my way to you. Not to offend, but simply make myself prepared; do you accept cash, in payment, or should I gather something else? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	whapuwiffaspoon 2008-10-29 10:19 pm UTC (link)
	Cash'll be just fine, but only if it works, no sense paying me for a reading that didn't catch. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	volos 2008-10-29 10:21 pm UTC (link)
	I appreciate this, ma'am. And here, I've not so much as introduced myself. Malakai Chmelyk, head of Invidia House. I shall be to your shop within the hour. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I would like to think I know vampires well...Not a psychic, but I am a witch. Will that help? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	volos 2008-10-29 10:11 pm UTC (link)
	I can use whatever help I might be offered. I have to admit, this is a strange occurrance, even for me. What do you know of the interpretation of dreams? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Malakai thatwasnifty 2008-10-29 10:20 pm UTC (link)
	I don't know much, but I am a wiz at research... Quick question though. Do you still feed on humans? (Just curious and don't mean to be judgmental) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I would certainly appreciate the help in the matter. While I can read a few languages, Latin was never easy for me, and most of these things seem to be recorded as such.

In the world where I am from, there was a synthetic blood produced by our kind, that I had grown accustomed to. It does not exist here, and yes, that has forced me to drink from humans again- but only the willing. I mean you no harm, I assure you.

	Malakai thatwasnifty 2008-10-29 10:29 pm UTC (link)
	Have you tried pigs blood? I know it doesn't sound that enticing, but it works for some....two friends of mine depended on it. And I don't fear you, I can protect myself. I hate latin, but I can read it...sort of. Oh, I'm willow by the way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

When I'm forced. It was more viable when the pigs were raised in better conditions. It's rather the equivolent of fast food, for humans- very little nutritional value, not at all filling. Not to mention, for my house, we rather glean our humanity, from those we feed from. Those that have tried to live off animals, or even the synthetic I've mentioned, tend to go quite mad after a time. Seeing as I'm already there, it's probably not a good idea.

Good for you. Again, I'm not quite sure what direction to point you in. I'm not even supposed to be having the dreams. They're just there.

	Malakai thatwasnifty 2008-10-29 10:47 pm UTC (link)
	Much different than the vampires in my world. Like I said, I have two friends...loose term for one, who have to live off pigs blood. If you would like to meet I can use my laptop, for some of it, and convince Giles to let me use his books... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	'Have to' is probably relative. If you would be so kind? I will pay however you require. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You don't need to pay, I like research. And I also have access to all the texts that Oxford University has. That's where my office is. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	A startling number of the strange and unusual in London, isn't there? I suppose I underestimated it all. I will be in town for another stab at answers, tonight. I could meet with you in the morning, if that would suit you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ach, looks like the lady psychics got to you already and I missed the boat. That's what I get for looking the other way. Well, if you ever need a boy psychic, don't hesitate to come find me. I'm Jonas. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I am attempting to cover my bases. If you were certain about your offer of help. You wouldn't happen to be versed in the realm of dreams, would you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sir jonasjustjokes 2008-10-30 12:02 am UTC (link)
	Oh, well, in that case I rescind! Kidding. I don't know a ton about them, aside from the fact that alot of the time they involve nakedness in public and things. But I'm really good at learning as I go. Okay, on a more serious note. Are you looking more for an interpretation or a psychic dissection? What's the problem, exactly?

Please, it's Malakai. And there were not many psychics in my world, who so willingly chose to aid a vampire. I'm rather used to the serious side of your jest.

As for the problem, I'm not entirely sure. I had not had a dream for nearing on a century, before arriving here. At least, not one that I was rather sure wasn't brought on by drugs or alcohol.

I would like to know if it's founded- that is to say, if it is more than just a random firing of synapses. There were those that could communicate through such means, back home. But the one time I was lucid enough to approach the other, I awoke before I could ask what was going on.

I don't really care one way or the other. I've met some quite nice, well-bred vampires. Stereotypes are so harsh. You guys don't even run around in capes like the movies told me you would, so I generally ignore what other people say.

I'm more of a telepath than a witchcraft psychic, and from the little I know about the difference between the two, it might be a little more applicable to what you're talking about.

I mean...I'm thinking about this now. Theoretically speaking, the best way to figure out whether or not it was just a fluke would probably either be to go in and poke about, or for you to go to sleep and then wait until you dreamed. But who knows if you will again, so that one's a bit iffy. Unless this is becoming a regular occurrence?

If you'd like, I could dig the cape out of the closet? I have the muddled Russian accent to go with it, and everything.

There were some of each, in my world, but I would prefer your approach, than the others, to tell the truth. I don't imagine the books having much to say about this, anyhow. But... if you would not mind meeting with me, before you... did, whatever you choose to do? I would rather know you, before allowing you quite that much free reign in my mind. Also, to explain a few things before you see them, if you have to see them.

	Oh, jeez, yeah. I'm completely jumping ahead of myself. Sorry. I was just thinking out loud, sort of. I mean, in internet form. Anyway, that sounds great. I mean, for all you know I could be a scary obese guy in his seventies trying to lure you into a creepy internet plot. I don't blame you for wanting to say hi in person first. Sorry I jumped the gun there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jonas volos 2008-10-30 08:45 pm UTC (link)
	If you were some obese man in his seventies, I would have no issue handling you if you tried something. I don't blame you for being ahead of yourself. I appreciate the energy. It was simply a request. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Malakai jonasjustjokes 2008-10-30 11:22 pm UTC (link)
	Excellent point. Well, there's a coffee place near my house that I usually use for meeting people from the boards cause it's convenient. Sound alright? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jonas volos 2008-10-30 11:38 pm UTC (link)
	Again, in my world, psychic was just as much a career as accountant. I wasn't attempting to be rude, I just wanted to be sure to be prepared. I will consider this a person favor, in any case. I will be there within the hour. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Malakai jonasjustjokes 2008-10-30 11:41 pm UTC (link)
	No, I didn't think you were. It just weirds me out that people would charge for that. I mean it shouldn't--in a different capacity, it's sort of my day job. I work for a detective agency that deals with supernatural problems and things, but this just seems like a people helping people sort of a deal. Anyway. Then I'll do my best to beat you. ((log?))
