[ he really hates doing this . . . but alucard knows he needs to commit to it. the feed turns on with him looking . . . not quite sheepish, but a tinge of irritation layered with contriteness. ]

Last month, I had the unfortunate issue of losing control of my vampiric nature and lashed out onto a number of people here. I hope you would be willing to accept my apology and if not, direct me in ways where I can make amends. I . . . do not usually need or require blood as sustenance so it took me by surprise.

My apologies. If it helps, it seems I've lost my sense of taste. Perhaps that is penance in a way.

Multiple people...?!

[ananym]

[ what is so surprising about that . . . ]

Yes, unfortunately.

[siriusly]

Jeez...

[well what if Manabu felt kind of hopeful that he'd ditched you and you...y'know...stopped.............]

What the heck was that all about anyway? Is that gonna happen again?

[What a way to be introduced to the son of Dracula...]

Wait, you're a vampire? Like, one that was a vampire before arriving here?

[ananym]

I have been a vampire since birth.

You're a vampire... but you don't gotta drink blood?

[ananym]

My human half does not require me to do so.

( Frisk doesn't even question how unique this vampire seems to be... They're well-aware that stories aren't always really accurate to how things actually are at this point. )

A lot of people have hurt others without meaning to here.

[ananym]

It does sound like a common issue.

Was it corruption? There are other people who've lost control here because of that.

[ananym]

. . . I do not believe so. The effects faded soon enough.

It's not like you chose to be affected by the pthumerian of the month so it'd be stupid to hold it against you but, yeah, sure, apology accepted. I won't even make you pay me back.

[ananym]

Regardless, I think it is still right to take ownership of my actions.

But thank you.

Not dead, though it did "tickle" a little.

[Mistress of understatement here. Hurt like a beast.]

You aren't the first person I've seen go nuts like that.
So, I can handle putting gauze on my shoulder and taking it easy for a day or two.
but the thank you's nice.

Time honored tradition of Trench.
Get your head messed with so you do something awful.
Apologize on the network.

[ananym]

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised.

.. wait.

[ Though Ange mostly keeps her usual tone of voice, there's definitely a hint of surprise in there now that she can't quite suppress. ]

Does this have anything to do with what was going on with you when I saw you that time? [ He didn't seem particularly vampiric back then. .. Not more so than usually, anyway. ] Or is this something else entirely?

[ Does Alucard just have terrible luck or what. ]

[ananym]

Partially. I was assaulted by two different effects. One enhanced my vampiric and the other . . . You're familiar with.

You're a vampire?

[ Yup, not even sugarcoating it. He thought they were only in stories... ]

[ananym]

Half vampire.

Can we bookmark this post somehow as an example on how to do an open apology for Trench weirdness without making it full of drama?

Hope you are feeling more yourself, Alucard.

[ananym]

Is it that strenuous?

[martyrofduty]

Hmm. No one died, and they've recovered. Good.

Now you know it can happen. It's how you handle things in the future. This and any other issues you can foresee.

[ananym]

[ that sounds . . . cryptic. ]

Have I not handled them appropriately?
