some characters just don't understand being retired, canon is Dracula

[damngod]

Ah, look who has returned, the prodigal daughter, the woman behind the impressively advanced typewriter.

I must say you have disappointed me, dear girl, for all this terrible neglect. You must work very hard to make up for it, and do so with all haste. Let us find someplace new, shall we? I think my very presence livened up the old place, do you not?

A fast worker, if ever there was one.

[damngod]

My good man, you've not gotten any idea just yet.

Disappointing she may be, I did have the time of my life in the land of the dead.

[slaegr]

... The land of the dead.

[ There goes that eyebrow. ]

Forgive me, but somewhere so named seems a less than desirable place to make one's residence.

[urbanhero]

[Unnerved hero is unnerved.]

Uh...

[damngod]

[Not even going to dignify stammering with a response.]

Okay, just one before I run!

[shorthanded]

....it can't be...

yes, yes, flee before him, good, good, this is going well already

[damngod]

[Well, well, look who's...alive.

Someone's wives are getting a stern talking-to the moment he's back in Romania.]

Ah, Mister Harker! Here you are! I had begun to wonder—yes, wonder—how you were faring! Odd, truly, to come to London without the very best of its solicitors with me, but stranger things have happened than a solicitor ignoring his duties, have they not?

[esotericism]

I'm not certain that many places are entirely.. prepared for you.

[damngod]

You speak as though you know me.

[carriesparasol]

I would be careful not to rely on the mundanes for hard work too often.

[damngod]

Not all mundanes are the same, it should be stated.

[scarlet_discord]

Wow, it's classic Muse reawakening week. I'm now sharing headspace with a Phantom of the Opera and a Boromir.

I think it's pretty awesome, actually. Though I admit that I'm pretty biased.

[damngod]

[Wanda, sweetie. It's not even the twentieth century for him.]

I...must confess, my dear, that I do not follow.

[neverspring]

Some of them are the worst. To leave us behind in secluded, boring places when we wish to get out to play.~

[damngod]

My condolences for your misfortune.

[what_is_a_man]

The disappointment these mortals are capable of knows no bounds. They sit on their laurels more often than anything else. Sloth is indeed the primary of the deadly sins these days.

However, I do wish you well in your quest.

[damngod]

[Well, hello handsome man.]

I do believe the majority of the lunatics within this place represent sloth quite well. It involves far too much sitting for anyone with a sense of decency.

[rowena_ravenclaw]

Did you not return home when you were neglected?

[damngod]

Would there be an issue if I did not?

[aboloshisthedead]

[Oh snap son! Things are gonna get real here!]

And do you truly believe that your words will have any effect on the speed that your mun is able to find you a place to stay?

[damngod]

[HEY IT'S AN AMERICAN HERO]

Did I saw I longed to be in a game?

[companioning]

Oh. [See this? She's so not happy to see you, Vlad.] I had rather hoped you would have been left behind in that other place.

[damngod]

[Did you miss Daddy?]

In that other place, or in your dreams, never to return to your reality?

late as always but omg yay <3

[flipkicking]

"Livened up" is one term for it.

vlad is a patient not!man he can wait

[damngod]

Oh? Is there another turn of phrase you would prefer, Miss Valentine?
