"Well, obviously Brock, you've got something supernatural about you.  Something buried deep in your genes.  Otherwise, I suspect the One Night Stand would have stayed invisible to you.  Given your Catholic upbringing, I would have suggested holy powers, but somehow you don't strike me as an angel.  But if you're a good Catholic, then you already believe in magic and angels and demons.  So why should you suddenly become skeptical now?"<br/><br/>Colin gave Brock a smirk.  To him this was all so obvious.  But granted, it wouldn't have been so obvious if some bloodsucker hadn't bitten into his neck in 1815.  He believed in even less than Brock did back then.  All he believed in was money and gold and the pirate code.  Why he and Jean Lafitte had hitched their fates to General Jackson, he had no clue.  And if he had to do it over again, he wouldn't have.  It was in battle that he found out there were vampires.  But only after it was too late for him.<br/><br/>"Another Tom Collins, Hazel?"  Colin was beginning to realize he was doing too much talking.  A point emphasized by how quiet the girl was.  He was not normally this talkative.<br/><br/>Another question to ponder.  If Brock had something supernatural in him, and if he was a long-time resident of the city who had passed this way before, why did he only now discover the One Night Stand?  Why not sooner?<br/><br/><a class="username" data-user-id="634" data-username="@Villains" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" href="https://blackdahliaroleplaying.com/members/634/">@Villains</a><a class="username" data-user-id="3031" data-username="@One Wing" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" href="https://blackdahliaroleplaying.com/members/3031/">@One Wing</a><br/><a class="username" data-user-id="2200" data-username="@FridayWolf13" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" href="https://blackdahliaroleplaying.com/members/2200/">@FridayWolf13</a><a class="username" data-user-id="2986" data-username="@GMO" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" href="https://blackdahliaroleplaying.com/members/2986/">@GMO</a><br/><a class="username" data-user-id="2093" data-username="@Sandman" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" href="https://blackdahliaroleplaying.com/members/2093/">@Sandman</a><a class="username" data-user-id="2079" data-username="@Sanity43217" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" href="https://blackdahliaroleplaying.com/members/2079/">@Sanity43217</a><br/><br/>((OOC:  Is Sanity still with us?))
