The Vampires
March 4, 2010 | 10:07 am, by radiomaru

When approaching Vampires, many readers are confused by the fact that it seems to be about werewolves. The story begins in a village of vampires who are destroying their homes setting out into the world because humans are moving into their valley, but these “vampires” do not drink blood, nor are they immortal. Instead they all transform into animals, ranging from wolves and bats to snakes and crocodiles, the transformations being triggered by different stimuli for each vampire. For example, the main vampire, Toppei, turns into a wolf when he sees the moon or when he is scared. His little brother Chippei transforms whenever he sees anything round. Others transform at the smell of onions, the sight of a telephone pole, or a variety of other stimuli.

(small smile)
Actually, boys, I have a hot date
tonight.
SCOTT
A hot date with a collage you’re doing?
STILLS
A hot date with a 2000-piece puzzle depicting the
Bluenose II?
KIM
(frowning)
Did it ever occur to you that I might
actually be seeing someone?
Scott and Stills exchange a look. Then:
SCOTT
Kim, you’re a hell of a catch.
STILLS
You’re a damn fine woman, Kim. Damn fine.
KIM
(cranky)
Let’s just play the setlist again, assholes.

SCOTT
Okay…
(the following is presented in one huge burst of exposition)
Envy was Julie’s nerdy roommate and we thought she was a loser at first but then it turned out she was kind of nice and we liked each other and we sort of started dating and she joined our band but then she started getting less nerdy and more bitchy and she kind of took over the band and all her new friends started to join and I got kicked off the drums and we almost signed to a label but I kind of made a big scene and maybe kicked the label rep so hard he saw the curvature of the earth and then we had a big fight on new year’s and broke up.
