dreams and wings ;; intro

[BLUEBERG]

Ichor smiled back. Xe hated to see a fellow vampire so glum, like xe’d been when xe first joined. But after a week of living amongst the vampiric mammals, xe learned to appreciate their fewer numbers and large territory. Xe’d learned adjusting to living in a smaller group meant forging even tighter friendships, and, well, Ichor loved cheering up friends.

“Exaaaaaaactly!” Ichor drew out the word, accidentally pronouncing the middle vowel in a higher pitch in xyr excitement. “Er, sorry. But I don’t like hunting alone!”

Ichor widened the loop xe flew in. Xe looked over the rooftop, thinking of the various areas offered in the territory and which ones suited a hunting party of two. “I don’t require much! Two tablespoons of fresh blood! But I like deer, bovines, and birds. Tasty!”

If xe were hunting alone or with fellow bats, xe wouldn’t mind the open space of the graveyard. Being so small, prey usually didn’t see xem. But a winged jackal wouldn’t have much cover. “How about the forest?”
