You are the brat Prince, correct? Any advice for one newly gifted with the darkest of gifts?

♛I am indeed. You’ve found me, ma jeunesse.

So much advice to give, and yet, when others have given me advice it often fails to sink in until I’ve learned it the hard way… that’s why the “brat” part was wedged into my title *sighs* 

There’s too much to tell, and I’d rather not bother with the obvious things your maker should have taught you, or if you lacked one as I did, things you learned yourself in the first few nights (for your sanity: try to keep to a diet of evildoers only, try to cover up your kills, try not to kill in your home, spare no expense on lair security, etc.)…

But I’ll give you a few other choice pieces that I’ve picked up along the way, which can apply to mortals as well:

What if you bite me and keep me with you for all the eternity?

♛Satisfaction is not guaranteed, ma petite. In every sense of the phrase.

You do know that there’s more involved than simply a bite? I have to actually kill you first. It’s extremely erotic, but extremely painful. I have to actually forcibly pull your life away entirely – and you’ll fight me through it if you want to survive – and then feed a demon, a kind of cancer, into your body and soul. We still don’t know if it’s contamination or evolution. And it doesn’t always work.

There are worse things than death.

Every time the Dark Gift is given, a soul might be condemned for eternity. Some might say anyone I “keep with me” is condemned to the torment of my presence, or the desperation for me in my absence. Admittedly, monogamy has never been a strong suit for me. Not everyone is “tall enough to ride this ride,” if you get my meaning.

Reconsider your request.
