Mr. Wyndam-Pryce, I believe. I would have a word with you concerning a most delicate matter. Please contact me before this 'situation' escalates further.

I would have no problem with your studying this, Carl. Although she might object to having you around... I wonder if she would allow it if I asked?

It's worth trying. I prefer to think of the vampires I've encountered as I would any new species with their own requirements and ways of behaving... knowledge is the only way of properly dealing with any possible mishaps.

Of course she'll object to having me around. I was involved with her demise, as well as that of her sisters and master. It's actually a very long and tedious story...

It is, of course, but you're oddly nonchalant about the matter for a man who has had no prior experience with vampires. They're not a new species by any means, and your lack of caution where Marishka is involved is inviting mishap, if you ask me. God knows how many innocents she's seen fit to murder, and she certainly hasn't acted kindly towards humans in the past. I would appreciate it if you practiced more caution.

Please try to work towards some semblance of a civil relationship with the hunters? I don't agree with their methods or their collective inability to listen to sound advice, but their intentions are good.

Should I start referring to you as 'mother'? The way you're worrying about me... Ah, don't worry Carl! Everything will work out fine, I'm sure of it. I just can't help my excitement to see a creature from legend step out of the books! Surely you can appreciate that from a scientific standpoint...

And yes, I'd rather be on good terms with the hunters. So long as they stop kidnapping my friends. Even now, I hold no grudges... although I think it unlikely that they will feel the same about me for taking her side.

Still, many wars have been averted over a nice cup of tea... I wonder if they'd be willing to shake hands once this whole mess is over with...

Not unless you habitually shoved your mother in closets when she became a nuisance.

Worrying happens to be one of my many talents, and I believe it's warranted in this situation. As exciting as the opportunity to interact with a supposedly mythological creature might be, forgetting that Marishka is a very real threat to your continued existence isn't recommended.

They did what they thought was right, however misguided their actions were. Perhaps some kind of peace isn't impossible.

I can only hope for peace after this...

And... no, I have never shoved my mother into any sorts of closets. But don't mothers always bring up the past at the most inopportune moments?

I'll be careful, Carl. Thank you for worrying about my well being.

I wouldn't know, but my former partner would happily tell you that I bring up the past--and everything else--at the most inopportune moments.

Well, someone should.
