HERITA:
'ow could I 'ave let 'er out of me sight?
HERITA:
… Everything was going according to me plan. Es slopped up me potion. All I 'ad to do was keep a watch on 'er and wait. Where could she 'ave gotten to?
HERITA:
… I 'ave to be by 'er side when the First Blood takes effect.
Then she'll bring me over.
HERITA:
… Ahhh, to be a vampire again… To be strong, fast, immortal, invincible.
HERITA:
… I must’ve gone daft! Of course - she went to work!
Now, ‘ow am I to get there? I 'ave an idea…
Meanwhile ...
NEVE:
Uh-oh…
JESSE:
Neve? Get over here!
JESSE:
… What are you doing out of bed? You’re supposed to be asleep.
NEVE:
I not tired.
JESSE:
I don’t care. Get back to bed right now.
NEVE:
Don't want to.
JESSE:
Don't care.
NEVE:
Read me a story?
JESSE:
Don't want to.
NEVE:
Read me a story, then I go to sleep. Promise.
JESSE:
Liar.
NEVE:
Please? You be my favorite brother.
JESSE:
You think I'm gonna fall for that?
NEVE:
I love you Jesse.
JESSE:
sigh
One story.
Later ...
HERITA:
Ya ain't messin' up me kitchen are ya?
JESSE:
What? No. Why is there never anything to drink around here?
HERITA:
We’re outa beer if that’s what ya mean.
JESSE:
Figures, and after Neve put me through hell.
HERITA:
Gave ya trouble goin’ to bed did she?
JESSE:
Yeah. She wanted the light on so she could see the monsters before they got too close to her so she’d have time to could scream for help.
HERITA:
She’s a clever girl she is.
JESSE:
Then she had to go to the bathroom. Then she couldn't sleep ‘cause
the light was so bright that when she closed her little eyes she
saw dancing spots that hurt inside her head.
HERITA:
Right. Eva ‘eard of a night light?
JESSE:
It went out, took me fifteen minutes to find a new bulb.
Then she conned me into reading her a story. She finally fell asleep.
Man, I need a drink.
HERITA:
I wouldn’t mind a pint. What do ya say we go out?
JESSE:
You and me?
HERITA:
Why not? Let's go to that place where Es works. Do ya know it?
JESSE:
'Course I do. Hey, since when are you hanging out with Es?
HERITA:
Didn't say I was goin’ to see 'er. Just want to see where
she works. Innit a pub or something?
JESSE:
A restaurant that doubles as a comedy club.
HERITA:
We could go together like mates - eh?
JESSE:
Sure. What the hell? Got nothing better to do.
HERITA:
Is that your way of chatting me up?
JESSE:
You know what I meant.
HERITA:
Just for that - you’re buying the first round. C’mon, let's be off.
JESSE:
Hey did you see Racolo this morning – doing the walk of shame out of Usagi's room?
HERITA:
I know all about them two. She's 'is new bit of stuff.
JESSE:
I knew it! He's been into her since she got here.
