The Lost Boys: A Vampire Wanders into Their Territory
- first to notice, since he is a major gossip
- The rumor mill is his favorite place to visit!
- He LOVES that he the first to know too
- It makes him feel important
- His info comes from both human and supernatural sources
- Though humans are less observant
- There is an instinctual part of their brain that can tell something is off
- But they wouldn’t be able to put a word to it
- supernaturals on the other hand can pick each other out from a mile away
Random girl: “did you hear about Jessica?”
Random girl 2: “no, why?”
Random girl: “she got grounded for a month! She went out with that new guy, didn’t come home for two days, claims she has no memory of it all.”
- This information on its own is odd, but coupled with the hot tea he just got from the siren that lives in the bay?
Siren: “hello Paul” *seductive eyes*
Paul: “hello sugar, notice anything interesting recently?”
Siren: “nothing I would share for free, Pauly….”
Paul: “don’t you worry sweet thing, I’ll make sure you are well rewarded.” *he winks, licking his lips*
Siren: *grabbing Paul’s jacket, she pulls him closer to the water. Her lips inches from his own* “bodies have been washing to shore….there not from me, I don’t waste left overs.”
- Paul has frequent runs in with this siren and they have on again off again thing.
- It’s SUPeR dangerous since sirens can turn on a dime, and just decide that Paul looks more like dinner then dessert that night
- Marko knows, but he is sworn to secrecy since if David or Dwayne found out they would put a end to it
- And Paul likes his special time with his special fishy friend, and he doesn’t want to give that up
- When Paul’s put the pieces together he would report to David immediately
- Unless he runs into Max first by chance, then he has fork that info over to him
- He’s knows David won’t be happy about it
- But when Max asks, you have to answer
- When non pack vampires wander in he gets to have a little fun
- If Max doesn’t care or has clocked the new vamp as a nobody
- And Marko is ready to play
- He follows them around all night, not to gather information or to find where they’re sleeping
- But to get into the guys very psyche
- Humans can’t always tell when someone is following them, but a vampire can
- And thats when the true entertainment starts
- The dude knows he’s being followed, but he can’t do jack about it
- The ball is in Marko’s court
- Right where he wants the guy to be
- likes to play the tough guy
- Cool as a cucumber, ready to enforce Max and David’s calls in an instant
- He’s definitely not a cucumber
- He is on edge until the vampire is gone
- Like he needs them to leave NOW
- Poor man can’t even sleep until it’s taken care of
- How can he protect his brothers, if there is some random hanging around with unknown intentions
- If he had it his way, he would grab the vampire by the scruff of their neck and drag them out himself
- When their allowed to fuck with the guy a little, Dwayne has been known to join forces with Marko and partake in the physiological warfare
- But he can’t always do that
- Sometimes they have to be more delicate, more diplomatic
- territory is law, and in his mind if they were too stupid to obey in the first place, then they will do it again
- understands in the grand scheme of things he know very little about immortals
- So he frustratingly has to rely on Max for clarification and decisions on this
- Any vampire who enters Santa Carla, would be dead before sunrise
- He sees them as an active threat to his pack
- New people, bring new ideas, which threatens his control
- Outsiders also don’t care about covering up their bodies tracks the same way local vampires do
- So they draw attention from the wrong people, which in turn draws attention to them
- In these situations, Max calls the shots because he is head vampire
- The boys know next to nothing concerning the larger vampire world
- And of course that is done on purpose, Max loves to gate keep information
- But if he is out of town, David does have the go ahead to handle it if needed
- Traditionally, strangers just passing through are obligated to make themselves known
- From there it is up to the local vampires to decide if they can pass through the area or not
- And of course this is only if the unknown does things correctly
- Because technically speaking, if they don’t follow the guidelines they forfeit protection under the “law”
- When it comes to Santa Carla though, Max tends to be more lenient
- He wants to play the political game, and that requires more tact
- So the vampires that just wander in typically get a second chance to declare themselves
- If their smart, they take it
- Well, along as they are no one important, Max has no problem dropping reigns and turning them over to the boys
