I hope so. I love children, don't get me wrong... but you're right. There's something a bit unsettling about them.

I thought it was just that I wasn't terribly used to being around children, but...there's something strange about these ones, even odder than hearing 'Mama' from a child that isn't mine.

Indeed. The way they act, it seems so... mechanical, I guess? It's hard to explain.

It doesn't help that they don't seem to listen to me when I tell them I'm not their real mama, or that I'm not really married to the man who lives here.

Mechanical is a good way to put it.

I've not tried telling them I'm not their real mother. I doubt it would be helpful at all.

Though they can be a bit concerning as long as they are taken care of and their needs met properly they are not too difficult to deal with. The most uneasy thing about them is when those you have come to know become them and stay that way.

...this could happen to those I know?

Yes, there is no telling when and where....

[Though she doesn't say it one could infer she has experienced this in a very personal manner.]

And there's no way to prevent it? Stop it? Bring them back?

[That isn't lost on her, but she needs to know.]

... Another vampire, then? There are several here, I believe.

Are most inclined to dismembering their prey, or merely acting as one normally would?

I haven't really interacted with any of them.

Funny, a friend of yours apparently introduced Meiling and Flandre to one of them...or so Meiling would have me believe.

Well, I'm not sure because I don't have kids... or any drones in my house, really, but um... Maybe, it can...?

If you ever need a break from them, though, I-I can babysit!

I'd appreciate that. I'll let you know!

[ a sigh ] I've learned that it's best just to ignore them at this point. ...Not just the children. Those drones in general.
