...Sorry. I don't mean to bother you but I just have... I mean. I can smell everything. Can you smell everything? I mean literally everything. And let me tell you, it's not exactly a boon in this setting.

This isn't drugs.

[littlestdeath]

[must resist urge to pet]

He already said that. But if it isn't then I don't know what it could be.

[bitingcynicism]

Something's changed.

[littlestdeath]

Is it bad?

[bitingcynicism]

I can't know for sure while I'm like this. It messes with things. But there's... traces.

[littlestdeath]

Should I be on the lookout for other things that are going funny?

[bitingcynicism]

Yeah. This probably isn't the only one.

We were right. The stupid thing just switched months.

[littlestdeath]

[thinking]

...Right about vampires going crazy?

[bitingcynicism]

If this is what I think it is, about something affecting thirst again.

[littlestdeath]

Can't we just talk to them and ask if they're being affected or not? That sounds like the easiest thing.

[bitingcynicism]

[Considers, fluffy tail moving back forth.]

... We'd need to get them all.

[littlestdeath]

Do you know where all of them are? Between a few of us I'm sure we can manage it. And if there's an exception, we'll just find out what's different about them. It might be the key to fixing it.

[bitingcynicism]

I know who they are. But I can't just announce that to the entire camp. It'd cause more problems than it'd solve.

[littlestdeath]

Are they trying to hide it?

[bitingcynicism]

Doesn't matter. People are too curious. You point out a vampire and they'll go straight to them.

[littlestdeath]

And that would be bad. Got it. We'll keep it quiet. How hard could it be to ask them discretely?
