Alright there, lads and lasses?

[Brightly, followed by a brief slosh of liquid as he slurps something from a bottle.]

Been thinkin' a bit, taxin' as that is on me brain meats. Bout lots of things, really, but uh...

Tomorrow is me big One Twenty-- not as good as the oul Four Twenty but gotta wait another three hundred years for that one, like, so this'll have to do 'til then. I'll be acceptin' donations of the alcoholic and controlled substance variety, or money will do if you're underaged. Might even buy you a pint in return if y'find yourself around Maurtia Falls tomorrow.

Thought it might also be time to get some more poorly planned ink in the process, and I figured. Well. Maybe it'd be less poorly planned if I asked for suggestions from folks first. I'm acceptin' any and all ideas, even the truly shite ones. I mean, Christ, if you've seen me, you'd know I already got a whole lotta bad decisions inked out, doubt you lot could come up with worse. In before someone suggests a knob tat.

I slap my stick most days, with or without the Three Stooges around.

... Heh. Three spooges.

[slightlyoffchilt]

You're really getting into the thrust of this, aren't you?

[crassidy]

Ah, I see what you did there. You should be a comedian. Quit your day job and just do stand up.

[slightlyoffchilt]

I've often been called a stand-up fellow. Perhaps you're onto something.

[crassidy]

People love a smart dressed fella crackin' wise, you'd be a hit. See, when fellas like me do it, they just think we're off our bleedin' rocker. Get a tattooed Irishman bein' smart and he's kicked outta every bar he goes near, but a bloke like you'd, they'd be throwin' money at.

[slightlyoffchilt]

I feel as though you might be leading me astray, Cassidy. Kindly words or no.

[crassidy]

Mate. Mate, I would never do a thing like that.

[THIS IS A VERY INNOCENT VAMPIRE!]

[slightlyoffchilt]

Now I know, for certain, that my instinct is correct.

[crassidy]

If only you had the protection of somethin' like a vampire when you went out to these sorta places, eh?

[slightlyoffchilt]

If only I had the protection of being a vampire, yes. Exactly.

[crassidy]

Ah, I see what y'did there. Very sneaky. Nice try.

[slightlyoffchilt]

I thought you liked sneaky?

[crassidy]

I admire it when it ain't tryna manipulate me.

[slightlyoffchilt]

That seems a bit fair-weather.

[crassidy]

Everythin' about me is fair-weather, should know that by now.

[slightlyoffchilt]

And you wonder why I ask for the additional protection.

[crassidy]

Should get yourself a bodyguard or five.

[slightlyoffchilt]

If only I had some sort of... Immortal one...

[crassidy]

Never trust a fella who eats people.

Oh, wait.

[slightlyoffchilt]

You admit that I cannot trust you?

[crassidy]

Can't trust any one, mate. Way of the world.

[slightlyoffchilt]

You trust people. You're shockingly trusting, aren't you? Given your rhetoric.

[crassidy]

I dunno 'bout "shockingly trusting", but I 'spose I can afford to be a little less guarded 'round folk, what with me lack of dyin' and all.

[slightlyoffchilt]

And you would deny me the same!

[crassidy]

I would. You seem to be doin' just fine as you are. Well respected and well protected.
