Writer's Block: Going for the throat

::re-reads question, giggles rather a lot::

Do I even need to write an answer out to this? A vampire, of course. And while my favorite quote from Those Who Hunt The Night (""...one of those women who sees immortality in terms of an unlimited wardrobe.") is slightly applicable, that's not the only reason. Nor is unlimited reading time, tho' that would be a nice perk, too.

Blah blah blah undead, possibly soulless, feeds off people, blah blah blah. Whatever. If I was a vampire, do you think I'd care? No, I'd be too busy having fun with my new-found existence, and deciding who I was going to turn.

Vampire hunters, bah. Borrr-rrring.

I saw today's question! I knew exactly how you would answer, too. ;-)

After spending my teen years reading way too much Anne Rice, I used to wonder about hypothetical vamping and so forth. I was always struck by how awful it'd be to get vamped if you hadn't shaved your legs beforehand. I mean, imagine rising at sunset for centuries of fabulous immortality, and having eternal leg stubble.

This is seriously my favorite reply to anything ever. This response made my day!

Heh, I just couldn't help it. Who was it Rice mentioned, had to cut their hair every night? Gabrielle maybe? Once I took that to logical conclusions... I couldn't un-see it!

When you mentioned leg hair regrowing, it reminded me of a Tru Blood episode with a young woman who was turned while she was a virgin. Yes it grew back. Every time.

you would turn all of your closest friends, of course. If for no other reason than vampires do not suffer from human diseases (you know... like fibro and migraines and arthritis...).

And such fun we would have!

Yeah, your answer was pretty obvious :)

That really is a bit of a "Huh?" question, isn't it?

Oh damn. You'd better hope that "vampires mate for eternity" idea is true because can you even IMAGINE the break-up process if you decided you no longer wanted to be with Homie-You-Turned-Vamp? You'd have an ex FOR ETERNITY, who might, quite literally, get bored enough to sit up at night thinking of ways to get revenge!!!

Easy to live as a vampire in the 21st century, the Gods of darknes send you an endless supply of drug dealers, telephone marketers, bank executives and other morally acceptable food.

Neonazis are a delicacy, having been hunted almost to extinction.
