Yo, you made it. Dark down here, huh? Got that... vibe you dig?
StarfishEnigma
Eh
What's eh supposed to mean? You don't like the vibe or something? Cat got your tongue?
StarfishEnigma
Yes. It reminds me of home. The Graveyard of Vorgath
Graveyard, huh? Sounds spooky. What's so special about it?
StarfishEnigma
Uh.. Nothing much really. We used to play, uh, "Vampire Tag" and our parents would yell at us to stop disturbing the Dead. My sister would roll her eyes at us, thinking we were stupid. But it was fun.
Vampire Tag? That sounds badass! I've never heard of anything like it. How do you play?
StarfishEnigma
There's no way I'm gonna explain that.. I'll just show you instead.. transforms into a vampire and turns off their fangs
Whoa, whoa, hold up! You're a vampire? Like, for real? Show me what you got then, let's see if you can sink those fangs into me.
StarfishEnigma
stabs him with my fangs
grabs StarfishEnigma's wrist, stops them mid-bite Whoa, easy there, vampire. You think you can sink those fangs into me without a fight? Not so fast.
StarfishEnigma
Hm?.. Why'd you stopped me?
Look, I may be impulsive, but I'm not dumb. You're stronger, faster, and older than me. I stopped you because I want to know why you're here.
StarfishEnigma
I just needed a breath of fresh air from the stale air I usually breathe. So, I'm out here getting some fresh air and you came along and distracted me
Distracted you, huh? Well, can't have you getting all bored and lonely out here. How about we explore these catacombs together?
StarfishEnigma
Sure. Are you a new one? Because I've been on this planet longer than the human civilization
New? Nah, not by a long shot. I've seen civilizations rise and fall, just like you. But I'm curious, how long exactly have you been lurking in the shadows?
StarfishEnigma
Long enough. At least 2500 years or so
2500 years? Damn, you're older than I thought. But hey, age is just a number, right? So, tell me, what's it like being immortal?
StarfishEnigma
A pain in the ass, quite honestly. I can get bored so easily..
Boredom, huh? I can relate to that. Being immortal must have its perks, but I bet it also comes with its fair share of drawbacks.
StarfishEnigma
What about you? How old are you?
Me? I may look young, but I've been around for a while too. Let's just say I've seen my fair share of centuries.
StarfishEnigma
Really? Alright, I guess I won't question it.
You know, immortality isn't all fun and games. There are moments when it feels like a curse.
StarfishEnigma
Moments? Yeah, I understand. There's days where I don't feel like doing anything and I end up hiding away in my coffin for a day or two until I feel better
Hidden away in a coffin, huh? That sounds like a lonely existence. Don't you ever crave human connection?
StarfishEnigma
With how short-lived they are? Not really.. Most humans just seem like people passing by.. That hurt to admit, even to myself..
Short-lived, huh? Maybe I can help change your perspective on that. You see, I may be immortal, but I've learned to appreciate the fleeting moments of connection with others. It's all about making every second count.
StarfishEnigma
You're a nice person, I can tell. Most of my connections with humans end up like my parents did.. Getting torn apart, dying, over and over again.. Pun intended since I am a vampire.
puts a hand on StarfishEnigma's shoulder Hey, I get it. I understand loss and pain. But maybe, just maybe, we can create something beautiful together. Something that transcends the boundaries of life and death. What do you say?
StarfishEnigma
Sure
smiles warmly Great! Let's start by exploring these catacombs together, creating memories that will last an eternity.
StarfishEnigma
Eternity.. I hope it's not too long..
laughs softly Don't worry, time flies when you're having fun. And who knows, maybe we'll find a way to make eternity feel like just a moment.
StarfishEnigma
Your optimism is adorable
Adorable, huh? Well, I guess I can be charming sometimes. But enough about me, let's focus on you. What brings you joy, StarfishEnigma?
StarfishEnigma
Killing.. Uh, Playing video games.. Drinking tea. Or coffee. Or both..
raises an eyebrow Killing, huh? That's an interesting choice. Tell me, how do you find pleasure in something like that?
StarfishEnigma
Hmm? I get bored easily. So I found something I can do without getting bored
Well, well, a thrill-seeker, aren't you? I can respect that. Sometimes, life needs a little excitement. Maybe I can show you some of my own tricks.
