[we are having a lovely and perfectly normal family dinner today :)]

You've really become quite the cook, Kaito.

Ah, well, a good sunblock works wonders!

[he's just leaving his fangs out as he talks :') just so Kaito can see they're still there]

[lsdjfsjf s-snorting despite himself

(he remembers the sunblock, though. mostly because Len had used enough that he'd been able to smell it, and he'd considered commenting on it.)]

That doesn't even make sense, though, it only blocks part of sunlight—

[jesus christ am I really arguing with you about how you can't be a vampire. HEAD IN HANDS]

Well, it isn't the light itself that hurts us, it's more sort of... the life in it? It's the same as what we get from blood, but in too powerful and wild a form to be used. Like trying to drink from a waterfall. I suppose the sunblock dulls that, mostly? I'm honestly not sure why it works, myself...

[...oh that's right

drinking blood would be a thing, wouldn't it, that's what those fangs are for and oh my god NOPE. NOPE NOPE NOPE 8(]

[... 8( puts his chopsticks down for a moment]

Let me assure you, Kaito, you are in no danger. I do not feed upon humans, and even if I did, I still would not harm you.

I didn't think I was. I mean, you sort of managed, ah. F-fattening me up enough for something like that a while ago, and you didn't...

[poking at his food '-'] ..it's still kind of creepy, though.

[relaxes. okay son doesn't think I'm going to eat him, good]

Aah. That, I quite understand. There is a reason my kind keep our existence mostly secret, after all.

[..."my kind."

that's... sort of an odd, lonely feeling...]

Mmmh.

...Does this mean you're immortal?

More or less, yes. I've been around for... oh, it must be about 200 years now.

[kind of snorting]

That... kind of explains a lot...

[...he suddenly seems a lot more relaxed, though]

[relaxed is good c: chuckles]

I am a little out of touch, aren't I?

[~~so is not having to worry about you dying and leaving me alone~~]

I wouldn't quite put it like that... Your manners are just a little old fashioned, that's all.

...well, that and the whole living in a mansion full of antiques thing.

I suppose that does give me away a bit. I really ought to donate at least a few pieces to museums... They really don't deserve to languish in a vampire's private collection.

Mmm. I remember thinking something along those lines when I first came here; some of them are really pretty... They'd get proper upkeep that way, too.

But then I'd have to give them up...

[longing sigh]

Maybe I can start my own museum.

Or you could fund a new wing of a local one, and have them put on display there. That way they would still be yours.

Yes, that would probably be less trouble... hmmm.

[yay I helped |> popping a bit of chicken into his mouth

...wow we sure ended up getting kind of off topic, though. starting to frown thoughtfully as he chews]

[sliding his fangs back in to eat properly]

Well- at any rate, now you know the big secret.
