ooc: Putting the post under a cut again just to be safe when it comes to spoilers.

Still not entirely happy about this whole thing, but you know what? All things considered I think we might be able to get along you and me.

[ It helped a lot that Katie showed up. And that he's been getting to have a lot of fun in general. ]

Might even be all right to try one of those games out, as was pointed out to me it would only be temporary anyway.

[ He could bear to be parted from his mate for a while in the name of discovery. It wouldn't be easy, but neither is giving up the drinking of human blood. He likes a challenge. ]

My, someone is having an amiable day.

[suresomething]

I usually am, unless someone pisses me off.

[verserak]

Doesn't happen a lot?

[suresomething]

Oh, I wouldn't say that.

What about yourself?

[verserak]

I am always calm and collected. Honestly.

[suresomething]

And here I thought djinni were fiery.

[verserak]

If you are bound to serve some ridiculous human or other for however long they manage to hold you, you end up finding a way to either control or conceal your temper. Trust me.

Besides, not all djinn have fire for their main element, but that is an entirely different matter.

[suresomething]

I'll just go ahead and take your word for that.

So what are you, really?

[verserak]

Where to start, where to start...

[ Better sit down, you enabled Verserak's nerd mode. ]

Every djinn has a 'main' element - either fire, air, earth, or water. This determines their primary strengths, some magical abilities, though that is a question of practice, and certain 'comfort zones' as well as weaknesses.

Since that would be too easy and not enough variety for the magicians of old, each djinn also has a 'secondary' element. That one may not contradict with the main element and has a lesser effect on powers and so on than the main one.

Say you have a djinn whose main element is water. Their secondary element would subsequently be either earth or air, their main weakness fire.

It's quite simple, actually.

The best combination is, of course, air and fire, as you can see right in front of you.

[ Actually, they are all mostly equal and it depends on where one orders them to go and for what purpose, but allow him the arrogance. ]

[suresomething]

[ Good thing about being a vampire? You can stay still and wait for a very long time. ]

So what's your main weakness?

[verserak]

Go figure.

[suresomething]

If your main element is air I'd go with earth.

[donerunning]

My mun doesn't have any interest in putting me in a game, thankfully. It's hard enough getting her to finish my story, I can't imagine the hassle trying to get her to keep up with anything else.

[Besides, Kiara's content with what she has, anyway. Normal life for the first time in a hundred and eleven years? Best thing ever.]

Getting out to talk to others here is enough for me.

[verserak]

Correct. If you try to bury me alive, we'll figure out whether you are edible in the nastiest way.

[suresomething]

Well, we'll see what actually happens. Apparently she's pretty lousy at the game stuff.

[suresomething]

We really should find some nasty vampire for you to eat so we can find that one out.

I even have one or three in mind.

[verserak]

I am morbidly curious about the results, to be honest. One a one to ten scale, how alive are you?

[donerunning]

Good luck if she does send you somewhere. Some of them sound pretty horrifying.

[Which she can do without, thank you very much.]

I'm Kiara.

[suresomething]

I don't have a heartbeat, I don't need to breathe and all my bodily fluids have been replaced with venom. Oh, and I never sleep.

On the other hand I walk, talk, think, drink blood and have sex, and as has been proven I can technically make a baby with a human if she survives the sex bit.

I'd give myself something like... maybe a three to a five.

[suresomething]

They do, but it'd be an adventure. I'm rather fond of those.

I'm Garrett, nice to meet you.

[verserak]

So either you are like an energy bar or not meant to be djinn food. No middle ground, apparently.

How much blood do you drink?

[donerunning]

I had enough of that when I was younger. Looking after my little ones is all the adventure I need now.

[Which sounds pretty weird coming from a girl who only looks fifteen or so.]

Likewise. So what were things like for you before you ended up here?

[suresomething]

Guess it really boils down to "can you digest venom" and if you can bite through vampire tissue. We're very hard.

Depends on how hungry I am. The vampire who accidentally made me attacked the group of ten soldiers I was in. It drained all the other nine but didn't drink much from me. Left me for dead and three days later you got yourself a newborn vampire.

[suresomething]

[ He's hung out with eternal teen parents Bella and Edward, and also he was born in the seventeen hundreds, so it's not so weird to him. ]

Thought most people started later these days.

And that's an awfully big question there. Mind cutting it down to size a little?

[verserak]

I don't bite.

[ He said that with the nastiest smile, but it's true. ]

We are more alike than I first thought, then. Aside from the hungry bit, I do not do that, per se.

Your venom creates new vampires? Now, I wonder what that would do...
