FTF XIII - Hunt for the Vampire

[Nickswitz]

Really, would it help now? In what way? I can't see a single way it could help at all. besides maybe being able to be in the dark, anyone I steal from stays alive, I don't kill people, just thieve their possessions.

[Lt. Staplic]

We've already seen, the vampire can unlock these doors at will.

[Nickswitz]

Are you saying because I have learned to open locks I must be a vampire, or a werewolf?

[Lt. Staplic]

I'm saying it's possible you are a Vampire, and your particular skills with locks are 'helped' by that power.

[Nickswitz]

Fair enough assumption, I accept your proposal, it's false, but I'll buy it as it could be a possibility if I were in your shoes.

[Lt. Staplic]

::as everyone else fills the room::

What about the rest of you, you've been pretty silent

[Abby]

Well, that bit about him being the only one without an honest job... neither does most everyone here.

We know practically nothing about Sophia, Mr. Lazar is a mobster, and Lady Foxx was raised around money and probably hasn't worked a day in her life. And while your line of reasoning is nice, it is flawed in its primary assumption.

Personally I don't think Nick is one. Not yet at least.

[Angharrad]

::Avoids looking at the mess that once was Glic::

Being born rich is not a crime, therefore while I may not have worked, you cannot say I have money by any dishonest means.

As for suspicions, its not ladylike to be suspicious.

[Abby]

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that you gained your wealth through dishonest means.
I was just pointing out that not everyone here as "honest jobs", in your case, no job.

[Sonic Glitch]

Now now Ms Foxx {leers appropriately} while it may not be ladylike to have suspicions, you no doubt do have them.

[Angharrad]

Very well Mr. Glitch, if we are to suspect Mr. Seaborne (Nick) because of his profession, should we not also suspect Mr. Lazer? His profession is not exactly honest.

But I am wondering, if there is a vampire and a vicious beast, why is there only one body? Shouldn't there be two? One killed by this beast and one by the vampire?

[Nickswitz]

Vampires don't just kill, they also bring people over, so I would suspect that now there are 2 of them, I have a feeling we don't have much of a chance of survival.

[Lazar]

I earned my money through good sense and good business - ya don't need vampire skills if you got a buona testa on your shoulders.

[Lt. Staplic]

There was only one body the first night too. I don't know what that means but...

[Angharrad]

Actually there were two, our host and his butler.

I don't know what it means either. I don't know what to do with a problem that can't be solved by throwing money at it.
