"Because I am one." Eric smiled. "It doesn't sound crazy, even if we were in my world. That's why this bar exists. Except it used to be called Fangtasia and one half of it wasn't filled with horrible plaid-wearing morons. We vampires are only recently out in the open with ourselves, just the past maybe ten years. People still have issues thinking we're real."
He sat back some. "There are several species of vampires in the City. I should expect to run into a few more. Especially if you're going to frequent a vampire bar."
