[she sits cross-legged on the floor of the Plane; it would seem a vulnerable position to one who didn't know how fast, how agile she is

she's dressed in a simple black tank top, baring both the muscles and scars of her arms, and tattered old pants, streaked here and there with stains that never quite came out

in her hands, she tosses a stake back and forth, eyes following it as she speaks]

Anyone else here have some kind of destiny? Special powers for the fight against evil? That sort of thing?

[sighs] The Time Lords were at war with the Great Vampires a long time ago. Rassilon, one of our Founders, ensured that every Time Lord would be able to sense them afterward. We've sort of got it embedded in our system to kill them on sight - it's an urge we've got to struggle with here on the Plane.

Good idea. [frowns, brow furrowing] It works with all kinds of vampires, then? ...And if that's bad, I'm guessing you don't want to kill the ones here. [how much of a foreign concept this is shows plainly on her face]

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

[nods] Seems to work with all sorts, yeah. But the ones here...they're different than the vampires from our universe. I've even met one who's relatively...well. Not completely evil. [he is clearly struggling with this concept himself :|]

...You sure about that? Some of them are...really good at pretending.

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm sure. Sort of [pause] -ish. He...danced with me. And I helped him. I created a security system that would protect everyone who lived with him without killing everyone else, and he seemed happy about that. I wouldn't have helped him if I didn't think he had potential to do good.

And you tend to be a good judge of character? [not sceptical now, just curious]

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

[shrugs] Sort of. I try to be, anyway. Sometimes people surprise me, though.

[borntostand.livejournal.com]

[distantly] Yeah, they'll do that. [shakes her head] Well, I can promise not to stake any vampire on sight, at least.
