002 In Which Vampires are Silly

[eternallyoutrageous]

Who: Akeldama and you!
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Planet side and Iskaulit
When: throughout December

Iskaulit library - actually more in late November shh
[What was Lord Akeldama to do with himself when he didn't have the life he normally lived at home? No drones, no going out to the see the latest show at the theater. None of it. So he had headed to the library. True, he typically only read what appeared in the gossip rags now-a-days, but that didn't mean he was incapable of a good book.

Well... that's if he could find a good book...

Curiosity had compelled him to look at one of the books on Earth history, but he clearly hadn't gotten very far, sitting there, drumming his nails against the table as he stared at one section]

Planet side - shopping!
[At the first possible opportunity, Lord Akeldama was shopping! He was sadly lacking in clothes and he wanted so much to be able to burn those horrid jumpsuits that had been given to him. They were a travesty against all things fashion after all.

So he could easily be found in the formal section of a clothing store browsing different options that fit his taste... in as many colors as he could possibly afford. He didn't like not having funds to just do whatever he wanted.

He had also found a fabric store while he was there, browsing quietly. Not like he could do anything with it after all. An unfortunate side effect of metamorphosis, no more creativity.

That was until he had happened to find a blue paisley fabric. It was exactly his style!]

This would make the most perfect waistcoat! A shame though...

Open Broadcast
[Of course here is Lord Akeldama and he has to make this a post. Why? Because he's showing off in a way. So he'd seen all of this about "ugly Christmas sweaters" which why would someone do that to themselves. But he had found something else and he was playing this off as if it is completely normal.

So Lord Akeldama is dressed in dark brown trousers, a sage green jacket, a rose gold cravat, and this vest as if it were a waistcoat. Nothing odd to see here, just a vampire in an ugly Christmas vest...]

This truly is a remarkable place. It has been so long since I've had the chance to visit a city such as this.

So what have been your favorite things to do here? I would like to know what all I have missed thus far.

[Luckily he's already talked to a werewolf, so he has an idea what that is - and thanks to Warlocks, he knows what "vampiric" means. Extracting "vampire" from the adjective isn't hard, and his eyes widen a bit.]

That sounds really inconvenient for flying in spacecraft. Do you at least have some, I don't know, shielded armor or something?

[eternallyoutrageous]

The ship seems be protected from that at least. I do sleep during daylight hours, which was very difficult when first arriving, but with visiting the planet, is getting so much easier.

But there was no ill-effect for being awake during what are considered daylight on the ship, though I really was just not the thing.

[twosoul]

Huh. Why's that? Did you synch up with its orbit or something?

[And he nods.] Right, because it's not actual daylight.

[eternallyoutrageous]

Yes, I do believe so. I am now following what this planet says and I feel remarkably better for doing so.

Precisely. We are far enough from them that the light isn't causing any problems.

[twosoul]

It makes sense. [And then he laughs lightly.] As much as any of it makes sense, I guess. You did kinda get dumped into space without any preparation. No wonder things are a little crazy at first.

[eternallyoutrageous]

They are. Very much so. I never even dreamed being any closer to space than my roof would be possible.

Now... here we are.

[twosoul]

[He has to grin at that.] We sure are.

But hey, if it gets too weird? Feel free to drop me a line. Space is a second home to me.

[eternallyoutrageous]

Will do, darling. If I have any questions about this fabulous new experience, I will be sure reach out to you for advice.
