Mingle: Event Kick-Off
[ It was mid-morning. The sky was clear and it was a (not so) very blustery day. It was cool but it was always cool. It was neither too warm nor too hot.

Lukewarm.

And that was just how Bak preferred it. Especially since he had in hand his very important, extra special concoction of wonderful forgetfulness on hand! Bak could stand teasing, but even this was getting ridiculous.

Hefting the bag a little higher so it fit snug into the crook between elbow and shoulder, he stepped off into wild world of Marinanova and promptly had to grab onto his hat.

Opps. He always forgot about that step down.

Taking another step, he nearly tripped again, this time on a rock. Frowning, Bak starred at the offending piece of debris and then he kicked it.

And yelped.

And then held his foot, dropping his bag in a near blinding rush of ”Eeeek!” as he dived for the paper bag, watching as with a POOF half of the contents disappeared into the wind, leaving him sneezing and dazed on the ground wondering what the heck had just happened. Clearly, his own formula had been getting the best of him. It happens when one sneaky scientist messes with the formula and Bak spent the better part of the morning putting the final touches of the mixture together.

Heightened emotions indeed.

Bak will rue this day assuming he survived it. ]


((ooc: Consider this post an open mingle and the start of the Marina Feelings Roulette Event! Creating your own posts is, as always, highly encouraged. And, unless you got an extra hefty dose of it right off the bat (re: by being in proximity to Bak when it happened) feelings should gradually start to go haywire later in the day with strongest feelings in the afternoon and tapering off again as evening descends. For more info on the details, please go here. Have fun!))

Never think about how some looks are past their prime?

Though, honestly, not bad on you. As an eighties child, I dig 'em. [Dead, huh.

Rebecca's unfazed by that for the moment.]
If you're dead though, does your hair still grow or are you stuck with those lovely platinum locks for eternity?

If you're lookin' to apply for Grand Cheerleader Bitch, save your breath. I already got one of those. [ Eyeroll, but man if it isn't kind of fun to talk all casually about his lack of breath. ]

It doesn't grow out. [ Raking a hand back through those gelled locks. ] Suits me just fine though, seein' as I also don't have a reflection.

[That gets an audible snort.] Do I look the cheerleader type to you?

Wait a minute. You're kidding me, right? [You best not be.] ... Vampire?

[She blinks.] So who did do your hair? You put a lot of trust in your stylists.

God, that must suck. Can you take selfies with a camera at least?

Not every day I meet a supposed vampire older than Billy Idol and his grandparents combined.

[...] I gotta see the teeth though. You've gotta show me.

Hey, some of us have never seen bleach blond vampires before. Curiosity's totally warranted.

You get your blood in packs here though, right? I've heard that we have vampires running around, but I never actually met one. I probably should've asked for your name like ions ago.

I'm Rebecca. [YES THIS IS A FORMAL HANDSHAKE INVITATION.]

[ He gives that outstretched hand a long look of disbelief. Seriously? ]

Spike. And yeah, that's th' diet we're supposed to be on. Bloody travesty, if you ask me... bloke can't even get a square meal around here.

[Fingers wiggle. Only lamers leave people hanging.]

Well, how traditional is your meal plan. I mean, all the fiction I've read's only ever said vampires bleed their victims dry. I can see why that's not so cool around here.

[ Only morons use words like "lamers". Ain't gonna happen. ]

It's frowned upon elsewhere too, you know... and we don't have to drain 'em dry, it's just more satisfyin' that way. Hell, a grown man can last a good few days if you know how to ration him.

Can a grown man live if you don't munch more than once? [Slight frown; she's not big on the concept of death here or any possible "turning".]

I'm really glad you guys are on blood packs.

Sure he can. You've got blood donors, don't you? Same thing. As long as we don't make too big a meal out of him, he can be tapped repeatedly. [ Smirk. ]

You wouldn't say that if you had to drink th' stuff yourself.

What makes it different? [You're speaking to Rebecca, so apologies for all the fascination here that most sane, ordinary people may not have for the subject.]

Temperature? I wonder, blood probably loses some nutrition too, the longer its stored. Or is it the psychological factor you're lacking, hunt and feed type thing.

[ Eh, he doesn't mind. It's kind of refreshing actually. Something different than the usual "oh no you monster!" reactions he's been getting. ]

All of the above, I'd say. Sure, you can heat it up but it's not th' same as straight from th' tap... Weetabix helps with texture, but it's still pretty boring and don't get me started on the difference between animal and human. Not even worth comparin'.

We are predators, you know... nothing like a meal you had to chase first. Something about th' panic that gives it that lit'le extra...

[She frowns somewhat at the last part, not overly fond of the concept.] Not going to lie, bloody Weetabix sounds kinda gross.

I wonder where the blood stores here come from. For all you know you could be getting bottom grade human-rat mix. Tasty.

Believe me, I'd know if they mixed rodent into it. Have you ever even tasted rat? Pretty damn disgusting.

Nah, never had that pleasure. And thankfully, I never will.

[Thumbs point at herself.] Vegetarian.

--So wait, you can eat, right? Weetabix and all. But blood's the sustaining factor?

Of course. Th' one person not givin' me a hard time for my diet is also the only non-hypocrite around. [ Gawd. ]

Something like that. And before you ask, I can get drunk too.

You're ten times cooler sounding than any of those cheap chick-lit vampires, let me tell ya.

I feel obligated now to get you drunk sometime. [Snort, oh god.] Please tell me you drink Bloody Marys.

Please, it'd take way too long to get properly sloshed on that wank! [ Smirk. Good job Rebecca, he kind of likes your sassitude. ] Straight up whiskey or vodka usually does th' trick.

Duly noted. [Heh.]

A man of good taste, too. I'd give you a high five but I bet you'd leave me hangin'.

Oh wow, now I'm a frat boy?

Geez, flattering much. [Well intentioned eyeroll.]
