Day 220 Action | Video Open
[Evening falls, finding Eric at the Blood Shack as per usual. There's a bit of a subdued manner about the entire place as well as it's host. There are hurricane lanterns lit and scattered about the room. In preparation for 'what if' there are large tubs with ice in them. Bottles of beer, soda, water and even liquor are sunk down into the ice. There's a chalkboard menu behind the bar advertising Hurricanes, Blood Hurricanes and a small assortment of bar food: pizza, buffalo wings, cheese sticks and something called a Blooming Onion that Spike seemed to have an affinity for. It's all takeout, purchased and arranged for ahead of time rather than anything remotely fresh. Few people know how to prepare for a disaster like residents of Louisiana ~~or thousand year old vampires~~.

He addresses the video screen with a charming smile and a dry tone.]

The Blood Shack is, of course, open for business. I've taken the liberty of preparing for the worst. Do come by and have a hurricane or a bloody hurricane with us. [If you can't guess what a bloody hurricane is, you don't want to ask] To borrow a famous British motto during a disaster: Keep calm and carry on.

	Thank you. [An old fashioned half sort of bow.] Of course. You are my guest and are allowed to be here at any time you wish whether I'm here or not. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	...I am? [That kind of invitation isn't what she expected. Not that she really knows what she was expecting, but not this. Maybe she shouldn't be, but she is. Everything about Eric surprises her.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Of course. [he gives her a bit of a confused look.] Do you live by yourself, Klara? And do you manage all right? [Because he suspects she does, but he could be wrong.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I manage fine. [Meaning yes she lives on her own.] It's not like it takes much to pick up after yourself. The robots do the laundry. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He nods. He suspected as much.] If you need something, or simply someone to talk with, I'm always available. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[There's a pause. She's been received these offers left and right since she arrived. Of them, Eric seems to be the one she can speak more candidly with. He knows she's a vampire. He doesn't see her as a monster because he understands.] I know. Thank you. But I'm okay. [As okay as she can be so far.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He nods.] Very well then. Be careful during whatever it is that's going on here. [He won't push, nor will he underestimate her because she looks like a child. Once upon a time, child vampires were fairly 'normal' in his world. It was a practice that died out because child vampires never worked out well. ] (Reply to this) (Parent)
