Sofie here with two announcements!

First off, I'll be going on a brief but bodacious field trip with the old Mothership tomorrow morning (going to IKEA which is a damn heck of a distance away), and won't be home until tomorrow evening at the earliest. So this is me calling a tiny slowaitus.

Second and most important of all: Guess who has a new pup? I DO! :D


Okay, so, this is Mick St. John of Moonlight, which is yet another somewhat low key but delightful series that sadly was cancelled due to the writer's strike a few years ago.

However! You can find Mick's app oh gawd I'm horrible with html, here, and I'll be filling out his permissions meme shortly.

I do have some ideas for a teeny plot line to introduce him into the city proper and such. As I have stated very clearly in the application, Moonlight vamps can't survive on anything but human blood, emphasis on human - hence, hatched blood/Extra blood won't quite do the trick. It will stave off hunger, which is a Good Thing, but won't actually lend much in way of nutrition and healing capabilities and so on and so forth. In Moonlight, the need for blood is sometimes likened to a drug addiction - and I'll take that point of reference and run with it. In addition to that, the Taxon sun will be just as harmful as the sun of his own world.

One important note: Mick does only very rarely feed off living humans. 95% of his blood, he gets from a friend at the Los Angeles morgue.

So, while Mick will at first seem like a perfectly regular human being (if a touch sun sensitive), the lack of blood will take its toll. In a matter of weeks, he will get to a point where the hunger gets to be too much - the hatched blood isn't working, and Extra blood is just as worthless. He'll realize he's heading for disaster, hole himself up somewhere and issue a city wide red alert.

Yes. I am planning to put him in a rather sticky situation. >:3



Thoughts? Suggestions? Gifs?

I know you say he can't have anything but human blood but would he be willing to try things? Helen's made a 'medicine' for her vampire buddy which curbs the cravings/need for him. Even if it wouldn't work for Mick would he try?

(HELEN'S KEEPING HER EYE ON YOU VAMPIRES!)

Also. Enjoy the trip and hello :D

OH LOOK AT MY POOR NECK. ALL BARE AND TENDER AND EXPOSED.

...no, lol. Um. I still need to watch more canon but I AM EXCITE, Mick is looking to be a different sort of critter than Taxon is accustomed to.

By all means, Party is exposed and relatively defenseless since his laser gun doesn't work (not that he knows this yet). So it could be interesting for the both of them.

Sweet, a new kind of vampire. Very exciting! :3

I'm interested to see how this will play out! It's late and I'm not braining at full capacity right now, but I'd gladly get Katherine here involved - if only in a "let's poke at things a bit with a stick for my own amusement" kind of way. She's very curious about things that may potentially stir up some havoc, unfortunately. :/ So if nothing else, she'd probably at least keep an eye on him and see what happens?

Ooh, making the Taxon sun just as dangerous to him as the ordinary sun is a brilliant twist. And I really need to watch Moonlight.
