I'd like to gauge the feelings of the general populace here on a matter very near and dear to my heart, so please bear with me here. I know that I'm not the only person this affects, so perhaps we ought to have this discussion.

After all, 'tis the season, I suppose; we all got that message a while back about getting our fair share of "Dracula dick."

If there's no decomposition or loss of mental faculties, would you still be averse to bedding any manner of undead?

Vampires tend to be rather lucky in that regard.

[im_gonna_heal_u]

I guess they are!

Are you not so lucky?

[necroyalty]

I'm lucky enough that there's been no decomposition as of yet, although my body typically requires a steady routine of alchemical and magical maintenance to keep it that way.

A vampire, on the other hand, can keep their bodies in pristine condition without any such effort.

[im_gonna_heal_u]

Ah, I see.

[ She's... probably heard about such beings before. An undead who's not a vampire, isn't rotting but has to upkeep their body a lot... it narrows down the possibilities quite a bit. ]

Does that make you... a lich? Just a guess, don't have to answer.

[necroyalty]

I had tried to be just a bit more subtle, you know.

[im_gonna_heal_u]

[ Konoka giggled at that. ]

I studied pretty hard at 'mage' school, so that just stuck out to me.

[necroyalty]

Well...

Alright, perhaps I ought to let my paranoia down and be more open about this.

[im_gonna_heal_u]

There's all sorts of people here, so I don't think too many will care?

[necroyalty]

My concern lies not with the fact that I am dead, but what people may do if they knew what it took to get here.

Surely you know at least some of what lichdom demands.

[im_gonna_heal_u]

[ Konoka pursed her lips, almost as if she were trying to control her frown.

Sacrifices. ]

Yeah.

I take it you dirtied your hands to acheive this state... but without really knowing you, I can't judge you for it.

[ Kinda like Eva-chan, really. ]

[necroyalty]

It wasn't something I particularly reveled in, but what's done is done.

[im_gonna_heal_u]

I guess.

My answer still stands.
