So give them

Give them all that they can drink and it will never be enough.[/color][/size]

So give them [/size]blood, blood, blood.
Grab a glass because there's going to be a flood![/color][/b]

Valko frowned at her assessment of the situation. Part of him considered simply shape shifting into a bat and vanishing into the mist he had created. Sadly he was nervous, for the first since his own death Dracula was nervous of the way things were panning out from him. What if he shifted into a bat and she took it as his returning to whoever this Maleficent was and shatter him. Quite inclined to being semi-alive, if you could call it that anymore, he decided to simply have another sip of tea and to smile politely at the mad woman.

She was starting to grow on him. How could she not. Despite the fact the woman was madder than a rabid dog. He liked her. She had spunk and was not afraid, despite his infamous reputation which had somehow survived the ages, of a vampire. It was strange he had yet to run across the book that had sparked his existence, in fact he truly thought his home must exist somewhere still, in ruin perhaps but it must exist. In spite of all of that this woman was gaining his interest.

”A tea cup you say?” He asked lazily as if it did not put him on edge. In fact he was quite put off. Even if he could use his healing powers, if she didn’t burn the fragments mind you, and he could put himself back together. He would still have to spend the rest of his days as a teacup. Valko didn’t like that think much at all. In fact he took that moment to blatantly analyze his tea cup considering it for how it must live. ”You would condemn an eternal creature to life as scraps of a cup?” He asked trying to put on a pout. The look was not accustomed to the vampires face and it left him looking nothing more than mildly pathetic.

He shrugged however and finished his glass of tea then, unsure what to do with the cup, held it back out to the woman with a quirked brow. Honestly he wanted to see if she would make it disappear as quickly as it appeared. For if a woman of her power, her… well she was one hell of an attractive woman, he could easily use her to-. He stopped the thought dead in its tracks. He could already see the fatal flaw in his plan. If she was as powerful as he thought he would have to a. make her think he was madly in love with her as she seemed to think, or B. convince her they were on the same side. As paranoid as she was he doubted either would work. Then again the woman was mad as a hatter.

He frowned to himself then put back on his dashing smile and caught her eyes, ”I would like to see more of your magic Fauna.” He called her by her name this time trying his best to be polite to someone threatening him, but he was too nervous of the consequences to act otherwise, ”Would you care to walk with me and show me more? I can get rid of this horrid mist and we may alight along the path together as…” He groped for the word then smiling added, ”Friends?”

[FAUNA ROGERS]

Sipping her own cup of tea demurely, Fauna watched the dear Valko think. Oh, it was such a wondrous sight to behold. She loved watching people think about what implications stepping out of line could potentially hold for them. It was like....it was like... watching someone finally, for the first time in their lives understand the consequences to their actions. It was like someone making the very first decision to reform, lest their future be filled with far too much pottery for their liking. The sight always made her feel like she was doing at least SOME good in the world.

Oh, but he did seem SO very friendly. He was suave and debonair and kind and lovely to look at, JUST the combination of traits in a man that Fauna had been deprived from in her other life. She was sure that, if Sarah still had a say in the matter, even SHE would have to admit that the man was simply the best possible creature for the pair of them.

"If he's another one of YOUR kind, I don't want anything to do with hi-"

"I don't need any of your input, you little brat. Don't forget exactly who's in charge here." Fauna hissed internally. She really had gotten the whole "mental scream" thing down to a pat. She could remember those atrociously awkward moments back in Disneyworld where people would giive her strange looks when she let Sarah slip just the TINIEST bit and she would start screaming for help and yelling about her stupid husband and child and- well, whatever. Long story short, it wasn't that hard to keep the girl under her tumb nowadays.

”You would condemn an eternal creature to life as scraps of a cup?”

Fauna absolutely ROARED with laughter. Oh, how naive the poor gentleman was! It was greatly amusing to hear him fret about having to experience life as a little teacup. She hardly had time to come off her giggling fit befrore she tried to explain to the poor dear what exactly she had meant by that.

"OH, sweetheart, sweetheart, listen! First of all, I could NEVER turn YOUR darling little body into a teacup! You're just so absolutely cutesywutesy! Second of all, I very much doubt it would be considered much of a life after the first few cracks. "

Oh, that silly wittle vampire. He had looked so nervous for a moment! Wasn't that jhust the most adorabibble thing EVER? YES! IT WAS!

I would like to see more of your magic Fauna.”

Fauna outright gasped. Oh, goodness! Lordy be! It was all happening so fast, it was all so sudden! He was asking to see more of her magic! Did that mean that he liked her?! Was that a euphemism for a dirty act of unspeakable atrociousness? Or did it mean that he wanted to get married, so hat they could live happily ever after?!? She couldn't breathe! She was so overcome with pure joy and thoughts of potential futures!

”Would you care to walk with me and show me more? I can get rid of this horrid mist and we may alight along the path together as…Friends?”

Strolling up to him and forcefully linking her elbow with his, she smiled her most hopeful, excited smile up to him.

"Happily!" she chirped up to him, grinning like an absolute buffoon. Oh, lord, she couldn't wait to find out exactly what he had in mind.
