Drac is getting his dining room ready and tending to the last of the meal he’s preparing for the party.

Drac: "I'm sitting eyes wide open and I got one thing stuck in my mind." And it's love. Me! Silly me. My entire life - alive and dead - has been "wondering if I dodged a bullet" since I never loved. Not really. Flings. Love lust. That sort of thing. Only once did I think maybe I "just lost the love of my life." Well it turns out she turned, but she went to Nos for that. Still don't know what everyone sees in him. 

This feeling is different. Oh "baby, baby, I feel crazy!" I don't like this feeling one bit. What do I do? I'm "up all night" and "all night and every day." There's no rest for a vampire. The afterlife is a weird place when you get stuck among everyone else. Wolfie and I were talking about this the other day. And we still don't agree if Werewolves are alive or undead at this point. It's like "I gave you something" world, my life, my mortality, and my immortality and it feels like "you gave me nothing" in return. 

I'm usually not this hung up on a topic, but I'm hoping this blooming love works or I will be miserable for the rest of time. 

"What is happening to me?" Why am I so sappy? Why does love do this?!

If this doesn't work then "I don't wanna live forever." It won't be worth it and "I know I'll be living in vain." It won't be worth it cause "I don't wanna fit wherever" now. I want to fit in with you.

"I just wanna keep calling your name until you come back home." This is your home and I hope you know that.

There are multiple loud knocks.

Drac: It’s too early.

Drac goes to open the door and Mrs. Frankenstein comes in happy and with a suitcase.

Drac: You're here!
Mrs. Frankenstein: The world is ours to do what we want.
Drac: First, dinner and the party. Then, the world.
