It's not really something I go around broadcasting.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[donateblood]

Not to worry--I don't share others' secrets.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[amicustenebris]

Likewise.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[donateblood]

Iiiiii am also very curious and a bit nosy, though.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[amicustenebris]

I'm sure that advertisement didn't help.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[donateblood]

It really didn't. And now I'm torn between trying to be polite and respecting your privacy and just giving into my nosy tendencies.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[amicustenebris]

I will let you know when I think you are overstepping.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[donateblood]

Please do! And in the meantime, I might just keep asking questions until you tell me to stop.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[amicustenebris]

I don't mind.

[ And that's a little surprising. He doesn't totally trust it, but there's a lot less pressure for other things. ]

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[donateblood]

How old are you? Your profile said 40+, but 42 can be 40+ and so can 150.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[amicustenebris]

Older, in all examples given. I have not been the most forthcoming, but then I do not tend to cooperate with kidnappers. Personal rule.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[donateblood]

Oh, same--the age bit, at least. How often do you encounter kidnappers that you have a rule regarding them??

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[amicustenebris]

Far less than one would think but far too often recently.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[donateblood]

It's very unfortunate that I can understand THAT as well.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[amicustenebris]

What's the modern parlance? I'm over it.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[donateblood]

I feel that. I feel that so hard.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[amicustenebris]

[ And from context, he mostly understands that. ]

So does hosting take up much of your time?

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[donateblood]

Not particularly. The club isn't so popular that I'll be penalized for taking an evening off. And, being a vampire, I only do have evenings and nights.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[amicustenebris]

What do you do in your spare time, then?

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[donateblood]

I'm afraid I'm very much restricted to indoor spaces if I wake during the day. I spend a lot of my time on the Network. In the evenings, I visit friends or go to work. It's not a particularly exciting time, but I enjoy it.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[amicustenebris]

Not that the weather has permitted much else of late. I am presently in the process of securing employment, and I imagine that will take much of my time once it is done. Then there will be the matter of securing a more suitable residence, of course...

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[donateblood]

What sort of place are you looking for? Even public housing in the Up isn't bad.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[amicustenebris]

It's very much not me and so it doesn't feel like anyplace but a prison.

[ Hence one more reason why his first appearance on the network was him tearing the place apart ]

Anyway, modern luxury to me is just very stark and characterless, not to my tastes.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[donateblood]

Something warmer, then. Exposed wooden beams and white-washed walls? Or are you more of the luxe wallpaper and golden brocade type? ...Though I must admit, you seem to be more the type to prefer the former rather than the latter.

Re: text; un: mr.gold

[amicustenebris]

It's a good guess.
