It's pretty simple. This post is open. You can tag it with someone with a request or to be surprised, prompts optional (though if you leave it up to me it will probably be ridiculous), and let's have some fun. Muselist is HERE.

Have fun my dears.

Not everyone's got that sorta loyalty

[im_apimp]

It's one of the few good things Manticore taught us.

[cheeto]

At least they taught you. Back when I first got turned, well Bill didn't deal with me too much. Kinda had to learn things on my own.

[im_apimp]

Why didn't he want to help you?

[cheeto]

He didn't really wanna sire me to begin with.

[im_apimp]

So why did he?

[cheeto]

He didn't have a choice. It was punishment for killin' another vamp.

[im_apimp]

[Alec's face frowns a bit.]

So if you kill one, you have to replace them?

[cheeto]

Somethin' like that. Or you get killed in punishment.

There are exceptions, of course.

[im_apimp]

... Yikes. That sucks.

[he glances back to her.]

Did you get a say in this?

[cheeto]

Nope. I was kidnapped and forced into it.

[im_apimp]

I'm sorry.

[cheeto]

It ended up alright in the end. I mean, if I had stayed human and with my parents my life woulda sucked a lot more.

[im_apimp]

True. But if you're gonna be killed and turned into a vampire, you should probably at least have a choice in the matter.

[cheeto]

It woulda been nice, sure. But that wasn't in the cards for me. Bill needed to be punished and they figured makin' him turn a young teenage girl would be the perfect way.

[im_apimp]

Yeah, I guess so.

[still sucks.]

But hey. It all worked out. You're here now.

[cheeto]

Exactly. That's how I choose to look at it.

[im_apimp]

Good. That tends to be the way we look at it too.

[cheeto]

It's the best way, really.

[im_apimp]

Okay. So this is ops. Next we can move on to the barracks.

[cheeto]

Lead the way.

[im_apimp]

[They weave their way through the decaying buildings in a network of hallways and passages that wouldn't necessarily be easy to find if they weren't looking for it. Eventually they stop in front of what looks like an old office building.]

We're cleaning it out to make it a little more hospitable. But everyone gets their own room.

[cheeto]

That's nice. It's important to get your own space. [she used to just get holed up in Bill's house -- which wasn't always in the best of care.]

[im_apimp]

It is. We never really had that back at Manticore.

[cheeto]

Everyone had to stay in the same place?
