Ugh, I'm so glad that's over and done with. He freakin' deserved to be kicked in the balls after what he did too.

Sorry, guys, but I'm not going to be able to be on the Quidditch team this year. Things got...complicated over summer. Let's just say I won't be seeing any sunlight soon and leave it at that, 'kay?

You and me both.

In any case, I didn't know if I had to keep it a secret or not. I know prejudice is a thing but I wanted to let my housemates and friends know somehow.

[rule_britannia]

I suppose keeping it a secret is your own prerogative, but do be careful. Some people won't be terribly understanding.

[Filtered]

[nomorals]

I know, I know. That's why I only gave a hint.

[Dot dot dot.. he's tapping his quill on the page]

How is it, anyway? Er. Being like that.

[Filtered]

[nomorals]

Honestly? It sucked at first, no pun intended. I'm not sure if that's because Ash was a bad teacher or what.

I mean, take it this way. I'm going to live longer than most of my friends, I can't go out in strong sunlight, can't eat garlic, can't look at myself in a mirror. I need either blood or a blood potion to survive.

There's not really many positives to this, Artie.

That pun was terrible

I wouldn't have thought that there were. Is the school making allowances for your classes?

[Filtered]

[nomorals]

I'm not sure yet. Dumbledore said he'd see about what's going to happen with my classes when school gets back. Obviously I can't take Care of Magical Creatures, but other than that I don't know.

[Filtered]

[rule_britannia]

I suppose you might be able to attend some classes... but it's definitely going to draw suspicion if you only come out at night.

I'll have to keep my fingers crossed for you, then.

[Filtered]

[nomorals]

Well the school is pretty much wall-to-wall bricks, so I'd really only have to avoid the occasional window. Robes will come in handy.

Thanks. I know it sounds like I'm complaining but it's not so bad. Just kind of a shock.

[Filtered]

[rule_britannia]

Maybe one of the professors can help. It's not as if vampirism is a new thing. There must be something.

You're not complaining, Marce. I'd be going off my nut, I don't know how you're so calm.

Professor Rhydderch is going to help me out with being able to play Quidditch. Maybe we can work something out.

I've kind of had a few days to get used to the idea. You didn't want to be there in the beginning. Trust me.

[Filtered]

[rule_britannia]

Oh, great! That's good news.
I thought of applying for the team but I don't think I have the stamina.

Hah, I don't doubt that. Facing down a furious fledgling vampire isn't exactly high on my bucket list.

[Filtered]

[nomorals]

You should try out anyway. You might surprise yourself!

I think I flipped all of Ash's tables. All of them. Maybe broke a bookcase. I can't remember really, it's kind of hazy.

[Filtered]

[rule_britannia]

I don't know.. I'm not exactly athletically inclined.

Wow. The wanker deserved it, though. That and more.

[Filtered]

[nomorals]

What's so athletic about sitting around on a stick and playing with balls?

Yep. I think that, the three kicks to his balls and the one to the teeth will make him hesitate to take advantage of an innocent little girl again.

[rule_britannia]

... You really need to mind your phrasing. I just choked on my tea.

Have you reported him? I mean, it is a crime, isn't it?

[Filtered]

[nomorals]

Maybe you should stop drinking so much tea then.

Tried. Apparently wizard laws don't apply to vampires.

[Filtered]

[rule_britannia]

How dare you speak such blasphemy.

... Seriously? What kind of bullshit is that?!

[Filtered]

[nomorals]

Your guess is as good as mine. That was the impression I got when I "filed a complaint" with the Ministry anyway.

[Filtered]

[rule_britannia]

I've half a mind to bring this up to father, though I'm not entirely sure he'll listen.

[Filtered]

[nomorals]

Dads rarely do.

[Filtered]

[rule_britannia]

Tell me about it.

[Filtered]

[nomorals]

You don't want to hear about my dad, dude. Trust me.

[Filtered]

[rule_britannia]

It's a figure of speech.

I'm sure you want to tell me about your father as much as I want to talk about mine.
