BRYNIE:
Hi, I’m Brynie. I wanted to be the first one to say hi to you.
You're pretty. What's your name?
ESMODONTI:
Hi, my what a sweet little elf boy, I'm Esmodonti,
but if that's too much for ya - just call me Es.
BRYNIE:
Yikes! You have fangs!
ESMODONTI:
'Course cherie, I wouldn’t be the famous vampir-ES if I didn’t have
the teeth to prove it. You are a cutie - how old are ya anyway?
BRYNIE:
I ... ummm ...
GRACE:
Brynie - you're a cheater - cutting me off like that…
Oh hi, I'm Grace. Welcome to my house.
ESMODONTI:
Another kid?
GRACE:
And here comes my sister Daprima. She knew you were coming. She
knows everything, but lately her gift has been going in and
out, that’s what she says anyway, whatever that means.
DAPRIMA:
Hello, I’m Daprima and this is Fin. You must be Esmodonti.
ESMODONTI:
This one said you were expecting me. How’s that possible?
BRYNIE:
whispering
Fin, she’s a vampire.
FIN:
Is she? Well, I'm sure you have nothing to worry about.
BRYNIE:
And that's not all. Do you know what she did?
She pinched my butt.
FIN:
What? You must be mistaken. She must've
touched you, accidentally.
ESMODONTI:
A psychic huh? That’s cool. Great to meet ya. And you,
little chic, why ya staring at me?
GRACE:
I was thinking that you must've been in a big hurry to get here.
ESMODONTI:
Oh yeah - why?
GRACE:
You forgot to put on your pants.
DAPRIMA:
Grace – hush!
GRACE:
But she did, just look at her - walking around in her undies.
You wouldn’t let me do that, no you wouldn't.
DAPRIMA:
Why don’t you and Brynie go get some ice cream in the kitchen?
GRACE:
OK. Hey Brynie, they want us to leave now. We can have ice cream..
ESMODONTI:
Ooh-la-la, and just who are you?
DAPRIMA:
This is Fin, Brynie's brother.
ESMODONTI:
Ain't you pretty – are there any more like you here?
FIN:
I ... well, there’s my brother, not Brynie, I have another ...
ESMODONTI:
You may be just what I’m looking for ...
DAPRIMA:
Keep looking sister – this one’s mine.
ESMODONTI:
Sorry, can’t blame a gal for trying, can ya?
FIN:
I‘m going to go check on you know who.
Nice meeting you Es. G'night
DAPRIMA:
Come in you two. Es, this is Cammeo and my brother Mez.
You mind keeping her company while I check on Grace and Brynie?
CAMMEO:
whispering
Oh my - look at her Mez, she's a vampire!
Promise me, you won't leave me alone with her.
MEZ:
I won’t. Just remember, Daprima wouldn’t let her
move in if she was dangerous.
CAMMEO:
Right.
CAMMEO:
… Hullo Esmodonti. What an unusual name you have.
ESMODONTI:
Thanks, it's short for Desmodontidae - you know, vampire bats.
Pretty cool huh?
CAMMEO:
V-vampire bats? How ... lovely for you.
ESMODONTI:
How do ya get your hair so silky, hon. It’s just fab!
CAMMEO:
Thank you. Uh ... if you’ll pardon me, I must be going.
But Mez, you can stay and keep Esmodonti company.
MEZ:
Uh thanks.
ESMODONTI:
Shy little thing. Guess that leaves you and me, cherie. Hey - can we chill on sofa?
MEZ:
OK.
ESMODONTI:
So Mez - who do ya belong to?
MEZ:
huh?
ESMODONTI:
No girlfriend?
MEZ:
Well, me and Cam … Would you take your hand off my leg?
ESMODONTI:
Where would ya rather I put it? Ya know, Mez,
you're the reason I'm here.
MEZ:
I am?
ESMODONTI:
I read all about you in that magazine - FDQ. Decided to track ya down. You’ve got talent. I have talents too. Want me to read your palm?
MEZ:
I don't believe in that stuff. Look, I just remembered I have to ...
ESMODONTI:
You wouldn't leave me here all by my lonesome, would ya?
NOLI:
Hi! Me Noli.
MEZ:
Am I glad to see you.
ESMODONTI:
More kids? How many of ‘em live here?
SYRRAH:
Greetings. Mez, would you do us the honor of a proper introduction?
MEZ:
I guess. Es this is Vanni and Syrrah.
And now - I really have to go.
VANNI:
Hello Es, welcome to our home. I hope you don't
mind, but I need to get going too ... Hey wait up Mez.
SYRRAH:
We are to be room-mates. Perhaps you would
like to unpack your things? I can assist you…
MEZ:
Vanni, promise me you won’t leave me alone with her.
