36th Blood | Day late and a dollar short

[tsukihime]

[Arcueid Brunestud, white princess of the true ancestors, with sharpened killer instincts and always completely on top of things picks up the phone today.

She is likely about to address the fellow residents of Mayfield with something important, something to think about, something that will stimulate the mind and show that she truly is a superior being. Take heed, Mayfield.]

[Phone | Unfiltered]

Hey...did anyone else get a weird letter in the mail? I haven't really been awake for a while. Did I miss something?

[Oh, wait, it's Arcueid Brunestud. Airhead vampire.]

[tsukihime]

What that letter said about portals and mementos and stuff, right?

[infourbooks]

It started before the letter. I think that's about how to fix it.

[tsukihime]

So they're gonna make us fix the town for them?

[infourbooks]

I guess it's more for... people don't like falling through the floor very much.

[tsukihime]

Huh...I guess I did kinda miss a lot.

Well, none of you all go into any of those portals, it's probably really dangerous.

[infourbooks]

Shouldn't... someone do something, though?

[tsukihime]

Of course.

I'm gonna jump into one and see what all the fuss is about.

[infourbooks]

You're not planning to go at it alone, are you?

[tsukihime]

Of course I am!

Didn't I already tell you about being, like, impossible to really hurt?

[infourbooks]

...

No, that's never come up.

[tsukihime]

Oh, well, I'm pretty much an immortal vampire that can do whatever she wants because I can't really die.

[infourbooks]

...

That might have been useful to know earlier.

[tsukihime]

I could have sworn I'd mentioned it...

[infourbooks]

I don't think so... my memory can be pretty rubbish but something like that...

[tsukihime]

Oh...well...that's the truth!

So if anything happens I'll protect the house, okay?

[infourbooks]

I can put some protective charms on the house... are there any that would cause more trouble?

[tsukihime]

Oh, you can do that kind of stuff?

Um...I really don't think any would cause me a problem...unless you're one of those churchies.

You aren't...right? Because I actually like you and that might be a deal-breaker.

[infourbooks]

I'm a wizard. The Hufflepuff ghost is a friar, but that's about as close as we get to a church at school.

[tsukihime]

Uh...I'm not even sure what any of that meant.

Still...this place is full of magi, isn't it?

[infourbooks]

Yeah... there's a lot of different kinds of magic, too. It's really different from home.

[tsukihime]

Where I come from it's really dangerous.

So...just don't go throwing it around and getting yourself hurt ok?

[infourbooks]

I try to be careful. At least I know what I don't know.

[tsukihime]

Wait you know...what you...what?

[infourbooks]

I'm still in school, I know there's a lot I can't do yet.

[tsukihime]

Oh...OH!

I get it! You know that you don't know a lot of stuff.

Huh...that's more than more people would admit.
