“I will reluctantly admit that they do carry a certain appeal,” agreed Sir Reginald, taking another bite of his fifth corn dog, “but if you ever tell anybody I’ll have you…well, I’m not really sure. But I’ll have it done nonetheless.”
“If my parents could see this—”
“Your parents died three-hundred years ago.”

“Yes, well, we should expect that sort of thing. I’m British and dressed properly, with well-groomed hair and clean skin and you’re…well, you’re an African vampire.”
