I have noticed something very interesting happening to me quite often lately!! At Hogsmeade, the people at Honeydukes kept offering to sell me blood pops, and it is very nice that they try to sell me things and make money, I do not understand why they want to sell me such items?? I was just there to buy chocolate frogs and licorice wands and Also, just the other day, I was outside enjoying lovely sun and nice cool weather and someone offered umbrella to me? I do not need umbrella it is not raining? It was very sunny not single cloud in sky!

And then last night, one of my roommates made comment about how difficult it must be to brush my teeth and how they must be sensitive? Perhaps my gums were red or something? I do not understand but these have been happening more and more.

Does it mean anything, or am I simply paranoid?

Placeholder, if that's fine with you?

Just ignore them Vlad. It's nothing you need to worry about.

With skin as pale and sickly looking as yours, you need the sunlight!

[za_rodina]

Maybe it's a bit of both.

I think...people are mistaking you for a vampire...

[lefilschanceux]

... You know, now that it's been brought up, people thinking you're a vampire does seem likely.

Oh, no! The blood pops are really popular this time of year! It's close to Halloween, all the shops in England sell them. My own family's shop back in Liverpool makes a mint off them around this time of year. It's not actually blood in them, it's cherry! You don't have to worry.

The parasol? They probably just didn't want you to get a sunburn.

And if you're eating a lot of candy, your teeth get sensitive and they tend to bleed a little. That'll make them look red.

I learnt that one the hard way from my mum! She had to take me to a Healer to get my mouth looked at. That wasn't very fun at all, I couldn't have candy for a full week after that!

Why wouldn't you use an umbrella? Why would you want to get tan?

People who think you look like a vampire must not have seen very many.
