[i]"[color=0076a3]Sometimes I forget that I'm dead,[/color]" he explained in a strangely joyous way. "[color=0076a3]I'm a vampire, Sierra.[/color]"[/i]

Alder went on to say much more, flipping from one subject to another in his nonchalant way. Meanwhile, one of Sierra's ears stopped hearing, and started to ring. She didn't hear all that much of what he said after that, and it wasn't until a good ten seconds of staring blankly in silence that Sierra even realized he'd finished. 

Suddenly, her awareness rushed back, and all of Alder's words from the moment before snapped into her mind - loads of overwhelming and confusing information. Fitting, she supposed, to the overwhelming and confusing atmosphere of the whole damn place. 

[color=brown]"Uh,"[/color] she gasped stupidly, blinking several times as if just waking up from a nap, [color=brown]"Uh, wow, okay. Yeah."[/color] She looked up at Alder, scrutinizing, for a moment, the movements of his face. Maybe she was a poor judge, but he seemed pretty damn alive to her.

[color=brown]"Okay!"[/color] she repeated, more enthusiastically this time. An uncomfortable grin split her face, and she clasped her hands together in front of her. [color=brown]"That, that was a lot of information right there,"[/color] she chuckled, glancing down and then up again, [color=brown]"But you know, I'd be happy to tell you about my, uh... Species, I guess, and hear about yours."[/color]

She smiled again, as if that would somehow negate the fact that her every subtle move exuded discomfort and confusion. However, she really did want to hear about Alder's... [i]condition[/i], and she really did want to exchange some information herself. She did come here to broaden her horizons, after all. Risked a great deal for it, in fact. Plus, she decided she liked Alder, goofy and dead as he was. She hoped to talk with him more. 

Just then, a group of people shuffled by, nudging Sierra and Alder out of their way in the process. [color=brown]"Maybe this isn't the best place to talk about this stuff,"[/color] she noted, looking around, [color=brown]"Do you know if there's anywhere a little more chill we can go?"[/color]
