Video 001 | Lancer of Black

[erasemymyth]

[Now that the nasty business of Moonblessings and transformations are done, Lancer's ready to talk more publicly. So he appears on video to ask this question rather than texting this evening. The pale, dark eyed man greets the camera with a glass of dark red wine and a desire for distractions.]

This place, or the moons above, seem hell bent on drawing out compulsions we never even had.

[Not going to think on that too hard. Lancer just finishes the glass of red wine he's holding.]

Please humor me if you are not from this world and tell me what you used to indulge in back home. Are you still drawn to it here? Can it even be found here?

Do the moons increase that for you or has it all changed now?

[A lot of questions but he really doesn't plan to investigate this too much. He just wants to hear what other people do for fun.]

Oh, that’s a good point. That would just make it worse, wouldn’t it?

[She envisions someone in the throes of Sanguis’s bloodlust in a full-on fight, and shudders.]

Well, I hope your plan keeps working, for everyone’s sake.

[erasemymyth]

As at the moment I wish not to cause more strife to those stranded, I agree.

[That could change! He barely knows them all.]

Until then I will save my vices for when the moons are more agreeable.

[princessascended]

[Please stick to the “no strife” approach for as long as possible, Uncle Vlad.]

I hope things don’t push on that urge too much. Moon aside.

[erasemymyth]

We can hope. Until then, thank you for answering my questions.

[He's pretty sure everyone is either okay with, or at least not as angry about, the whole Moonblessing thing as he is. So it is probably just him. That doesn't make it any better.]

[princessascended]

You’re welcome. Have... as good of a day as you can.

[Since an actual good day sounds unlikely.]
