Virgin Killer is literally the worst and so are modern vampires (regardless of hairstyle).

The mythology around hopping vampires is pretty stiff, tbh. It'll be pretty inconvenient for her. I'm gonna go with keyhole/batty.

Results so far:

Keyhole - Batty has 5 votes.

Chinese Dress - Hopping has 2 votes.

Victorian Dress - Nosferatu has 0 votes.

Virgin Killer - Modern has 2 votes.

Please correct me if these are wrong. Also, I put this in spoilers, just to prevent Lavender from saying them out loud.

Happy to be of service. Bid adieu!

I'm still concerned about catering for this dinner. We have desserts, but what about a main course? Matilda's stockpile is, well, a stockpile, using it all up in one go is unwise! Does Audrey grow fresh vegetables? Do monsters eat vegetables? Ach, we're so unprepared we don't even have a place to set up tables!

> Jerry looks over his shoulder at Lavender, debating as tospeak on something or not, before tentatively beginning to voice their thoughts.

[JERRY] : The... Black Market is where humans purchase illicit goods. Whether obtained fraudulently, illegal, or needed in a secretive manner, all of these can be purchased at the black market. I personally used the internet to access this. ...It's often the only way humans and monsters can interact. Viewing something through a screen makes the Monsterification process not work, So video chatting and viewing monsters in recordings is safe for humans. It's why 8Bit is even able to HAVE a following on the deep web; They wouldn't be able to view his videos otherwise.
