Bulk Ponchos
Published on by LegolianM.
Panel 1: Taylor, holding a short glass full of something dark and looking surprised: “Really? She’s a dauor too?”
Panel 2: All three of them stare in the direction of the woman. It’s only slightly subtle.
Tacitus: “Mhmm.”
Taylor: “How can you tell? We don’t exactly look different.”
Panel 3: A short ways away stands the woman, holding her beer and smiling as she engages in conversation. Around her is a faint haze of color, various shades of red that seem as if they might shift and swirl.
Jillian, voice only: “There’s an aura about her.”
Panel 4: Back over to the bar, Tacitus tells Taylor: “You have one too, although yours is very small still.”
Taylor: “Huh. How come I can’t see them?”
Panel 5: Tacitus: “It takes some time to learn. You’re very young still, Taylor, there’s a lot we can teach you with time.”
Taylor: “Ooo, vampire powers.”
Panel 6: Taylor: “Is one of those things some special power to get more blood in your mouth than on your clothes?”
Tacitus: “That just takes practice, I’m afraid.”
Taylor, muttering quietly to himself: “Ponchos. Bulk, disposable ponchos.”
