briefing ♔ we'll be the broken lovers with the poison cup

Vampire Smile - Kyla La Grange

WHO || Wynn, Rose, Dean, Ashley, Gus, Elijah [Closed]
WHAT || Carmilla Mission Briefing
WHERE || Round Table Room
WHEN || April 2016 (before Gar's kidnapping)
HOW || Actionspam. Single thread, don't worry about maintaining tagging order.

Just as before, accessing the secret room where the Round Table is housed requires using the Knight's keycard to open the glass case beside the mural of the War in Heaven, located across from the ballroom entrance. Using the fire extinguisher as a lever to activate the "door" mechanism reveals the long torch-lit hall plastered in artwork depicting the Knight's history. The tenants of the Knighthood hang large and foreboding over the doors at the end of the hall, which stand open to reveal the brightly lit Round Table, and the majestic crystalline dragon statue presiding over it.

Come in, find a seat, meet your teammates if you haven't already somehow.

[ ok but what the hell ]

How's that chair even hold her?

[druidisms]

Dwarves. [ like that is an explanation. ]

[ofmyword]

[Elijah is just gonna find his way in, take one look at the bear and find a seat as far from her as he can. Pls don't get bear fur on his suit.]

[littledhampir]

[Dragging her gaze away from the bear.]

Animals. Dhampir... It's a thing.

[bagsthem]

A damn what?

[Knowledge crit fail :')]

[littledhampir]

[Don't worry Ashley. They don't exist here as far as anyone knows.]

Peer? Half Human, half Vampire.

[ofmyword]

I wasn't aware such a thing was possible.

[Gonna speak up because he's interested.]

[littledhampir]

You and everyone else this side of the veil.

[Rose Hathaway. The least helpful.]

Not sure it even is here.

[bagsthem]

Oh.

[Ashley just goes a little quiet because, well, vampires are fucking weird in her canon okay.

Just gonna...let that one go.]

[druidisms]

[ boredly, as he fucks with his phone, ] It's not possible. Vampires can't reproduce.

[ofmyword]

Not all of them, no.

[That's how you get tribrids, kids.]

[littledhampir]

[From the look on Rose's face? She's... not used to agreeing with somebody on this subject so she... gapes a second before uselessly adding;]

What he said.

[likedillinger]

[ dean gives elijah a look for a moment at that last comment. ] You're not from this world either?

[ofmyword]

[You're welcome, Rose?? Elijah shakes his head.]

No. It's something of a miracle where I'm from, but it isn't unheard of.

[likedillinger]

[ with a crit fail, his racist ass can't help but snort

world's best boyfriend ] Interesting choice of words.

[littledhampir]

[Even a Nat 20 Will Save isn't going to stop Rose from giving Dean a harsh look like. Please. Stop the words that are coming out of your mouth right now.]

It's fairly common where I'm from. [Still staring at the boyfriend for a long moment before she forces her attention on Elijah.] We have more than one race of Vampire.

[ofmyword]

[A matching Nat 20 is more than enough for Elijah to just quirk his lips at Dean.]

It is what it is. [He turns his attention back to Rose because he's done with you, little boy.] We just have the one, with a few... minor variations.

[littledhampir]

[Rose for her part, at least appears to let it go.]

Variations? [Her own curiosity piqued.] What does that mean?

[likedillinger]

[ dean's all ears too tbh but keeps his smart mouth shut for now ]

[ofmyword]

The original vampires, the lesser vampires they created and the occasional hybrid.

[littledhampir]

[She can reason out what she thinks the first two mean at least.]

Hybrid... [Rose stiffens a little, eyes narrowing.]

And would a Dhampir fall into the Hybrid category?

[bagsthem]

Sounds like there's a whole lot of vampire weirdness going on in this room.

[A beat.]

Just saying.

[littledhampir]

[There appears to be some reply on the tip of her tongue but in the end she simply presses her lips together and sinks back into her chair with her arms folded across her chest, letting the subject alone before she gets herself worked up before the briefing even starts (WS 25).]

[wynn]

Considering I'm sending you off to parley with vampires, it did seem appropriate. [ just sayin'. oh look it's the boss man ]

[druidisms]

Vampires. [ :| gus looks super pleased. jk. ]
