[ After a couple weeks of sitting and thinking on this one, Junseo's decided to pose an important question to the network. ]

How do people become vampires?

[ A short pause where he remembers not to be so human biased here! ]

Or alien people too?

[ There we go, he feels way more inclusive now, as he stares intently at the screen and waits for endless fountains of knowledge to come to him that will in no way conflict. ]

It isn't just people and aliens—

[Oops. Has he already said too much about himself? Maybe.]

[dumbfound]

[ !!!!!

He's not actually suspicious at all, he's just curious. ]

... animals too?

[leonized]

... No, I wasn't thinking of animals.

[Uggggh.]

I don't.... ?

Maybe it's different in other worlds, but the traditional means back where I'm from is that vampires turn others with their bite. As for where that original vampire came from...

[His voice trails off since he doesn't know how they originally came about.]

[dumbfound]

[ That seems like a deep question to be pondered by someone who has a much, much greater attention span than Junseo does.

He's still caught up on the turning with your bite thing. ]

Yeah, Sasha said that too. Only I don't think that's right. Uhm... I mean...

[ Toby just said that's how it worked on his world, so who is Junseo to say it isn't right? He looked a bit flummoxed as he fails to find a good recovery. ]

voice forever!

[hisheartsdesire]

[Toby still remembers that time some months ago when Junseo made a network post and appeared to have blood all over his shirt while asking what he should do or something of the sort. Put two and two together, and maybe Junseo is a vampire. Buuuuuuuut maybe he also doesn't want to out himself. Because he didn't say anything like that just now, he's just not so inconspicuously asking about vampires. Of course.]

—Just because it works the same way in more than a few worlds doesn't mean it's the same in each and every one.

Why, how do you you think it happens?

[dumbfound]

[ Nods thoughtfully. Yes, yes, this is a good point. Though it still doesn't help him much at all. ]

Uhm, I don't really know... but not that way probably?

[huntergames]

[ SHE DIDN'T EXPECT THIS POST AT ALL. ]

A-ah... I was referencing movies mostly... haha! Silly me!

[whopperking]

Haven't you seen the movies?

[dumbfound]

Some of them...

[ Hey, this guy should definitely know a thing or two about vampires, right? ]

[whopperking]

[In theory...]

You'll notice some trends that keep coming up then, right? They can't all be coincidence.

[dumbfound]

[ Stopping to consider them. ]

I can't turn into a bat?

[dejerate]

How do you think people become vampires?

[How is this even a question? But then, not everyone could be expected to know. Not all the imPorts grew up with the vampires and all the way Yuu did, of course.

Which doesn't stop him being surprised at the question.]

You obviously know what a vampire is at least.

video;

[dumbfound]

Well... not like everyone is saying I'm pretty sure.

[ But he does nod in slow agreement at the statement, even going so far as to point to his own chest during that nodding.

What does that mean? Does that mean he agrees that he knows what a vampire is? That he maybe even knows a vampire personally? That he himself could be a vam--

It's the last one. He's a vampire. He's just a really, really sad excuse for one. ]

Uh-huh.

[dejerate]

Y-you're one?

[He's met one other aside from Mika thus far. But it is true that there are apparently different kinds of vampires. The way the ones back home work could be different to others.]

[dumbfound]

[ Nods again, looking oddly bright and cheerful about the fact.

Though the expression drops off his face. ]

I'm pretty sure anyway?

[ He doesn't sound certain, but that's... actually an incredibly common thing for him. ]

[marriedmedium]

Through the process of being vampired, obviously, darling.

video;

[dumbfound]

Right!

[ A sharp, decisive nod followed by an intent stare at the screen for a few seconds. Finally speaking again. ]

What does that mean?

video;

[marriedmedium]

Well, biting is certainly involved, but that doesn't make it permanent. I was once a vampire myself before my best friend Donna Henderson turned me back.

[dumbfound]

You can be turned back?

[ Holy shit this is news he never heard of!! ]

[valuemeal]

[ Okay, so he recognizes Junseo, and that vampire question definitely pings his interest too, but.. well, both of those facts are immediately ruined by the follow-up question that Hyunsoo can't help but question instead. ]

Do aliens and vampires have anything to do with each other?

video;

[dumbfound]

If they're alien vampires they do.

[ Obviously. ]

[valuemeal]

Do you know any alien vampires?

[ He's still sceptical. That has to be too ridiculous even for this place. Right? Right. ]

[dumbfound]

Yeah, but only one.

[ That's enough to count her in this listing though. ]
