Okay... But why? We don't really have to worry about vampires here.

[aiwillneversmile]

It's just in case. You never know what will come up. There's already were-animals, shapeshifters, mages, and so on.

[adorabrawler]

And what do you plan on doing if a dangerous one shows up?

[aiwillneversmile]

Nothing. That's for everyone else to figure out, but I really doubt one will show. What's more likely is that we'll get turned into some variation of a vampire at some point.

[adorabrawler]

In that case, you should be more worried about werewolves instead.

[aiwillneversmile]

I already read about them. Including the materials everyone put together.

[adorabrawler]

I guess that's something. Now that's a threat I'm actually worried about.

[aiwillneversmile]

Naturally, since you have to fight them. That's requires a different set of research.

[adorabrawler]

Well, at least most of them aren't so tough. And I've got my wolf-melting pipe, so that's another thing in my favor.

[aiwillneversmile]

Mm, you guys did well when you went into the forest before. It's good that you're still wary of them, though.

[adorabrawler]

With certain definitions of "well"...

[aiwillneversmile]

What do you think didn't go well?

[adorabrawler]

We were trying not to be caught by that wolf... and then we were. And it turns out we're still no match for him.

[aiwillneversmile]

Did you go in prepared to fight and win against him?

[adorabrawler]

Not really. We already knew we wouldn't be able to win.

[aiwillneversmile]

So, I don't see what turned out poorly. You knew your limitations and were able to get out with minimal injury.

[adorabrawler]

[ ... ]

Maybe. The more time passes, the more I start to wonder if bringing back that body was a good idea...

[aiwillneversmile]

Because you don't think he's going to give up on it?

[adorabrawler]

Well... that's one reason. When we broke into his mansion to rescue Leviathan and Sonata, a really bad ritual followed it.

[aiwillneversmile]

And the other reasons?

[adorabrawler]

Blossom's been missing this whole time, and I'm like... what if that's our fault?

[aiwillneversmile]

It is, but I don't think it's as sinister as you think.

[adorabrawler]

I wasn’t thinking sinister… Meh, I don’t know. If it wasn’t us, someone else would’ve done it anyway.

[aiwillneversmile]

They definitely would have. I'm just curious what the missing piece is.

[one pen twirl, thinking]

[adorabrawler]

Missing piece? Of what?
