Good afternoon, this is Mitsuru Kirijo.

For those who don't already know, I have just opened a new establishment, House of Leaves. It's a combination of tea shop and book store.

I was considering hosting a book club at the shop. It will be held on a fortnightly basis, in the evenings, after closing time.

There will, of course, be refreshments for those concerned about that.

Please let me know if you are interested. I will also gladly accept suggestions for reading material.

that's not a bad idea. i think its supposed to be a classic.

its not quite the same, but its pretty close. another vampire story.

Vampires are popular as subjects of literature across worlds it seems.

Perhaps I will look out for your version too. It would be interesting to compare the two.

[solitarysoul]

yeah, i guess they are. i don't think they were real back where i came from, but who knows.

tell me what you think about it.

Logic dictates that I should dismiss them as mere works of fiction and myth.

However, certain events in my own world plus some of the residents I've heard about here mean that I'm a little more... open to the possibility of them not being a work of imagination entirely I suppose.

[ More than a year on and it's still a little weird for everyone's... abilities to mostly be out in the open like this. Her own included, still there's no sense in being secretive about it. ]

logic doesn't work the same in your world as it does in others. i've stopped trying to expect things make sense in any other world. but things like magic and vampires were supposed to be fake back home too but i found out magic was real.

it seems like in some places its just normal for people. so why not vampires or werewolves or whatever.
