[freshtilapia]

Have you ever given yourself a new name?
Or maybe a nickname?
How did you choose it?
Does it have any meaning for you?

[inabluemoon]

You could say that.

[freshtilapia]

And in what way, if you don't mind me asking?

[inabluemoon]

When most vampires hear my name they attack me immediately~

[freshtilapia]

That kind of infamy, huh? That is honestly impressive.

[inabluemoon]

I know, isn't it~?

[freshtilapia]

It truly is. What made them want to attack you on mere mention? Were you a slayer of them?

[inabluemoon]

They all hate the vampire whose name I took, so stating that I'm associated with him naturally upsets them a little bit.

[freshtilapia]

Amazing... well, what name is it?

[inabluemoon]

Vanitas.

[freshtilapia]

Vanitas, huh. I suppose some merfolk performer like me isn't worth knowing for someone as infamous as you.

[inabluemoon]

Well here past reputation doesn't really matter much, does it? At least without people from our respective worlds to back it up. After all, for all you know I could be lying.

[freshtilapia]

Even if you were lying, it's a memorable story. It makes you stand out.

[inabluemoon]

True, I guess it does.

[freshtilapia]

Anyway, for what it's worth, I'm Fish.

[inabluemoon]

Did you pick that yourself?

[freshtilapia]

Not at all. It was an old nickname given to me by those I worked with.

[inabluemoon]

Then you liked it enough to keep it around, I take it?

[freshtilapia]

That is pretty much it, yes. It's simple and snappy. And makes easy recall.
