(( Dr. Jar ))
One day Ru had to do some day driving. He drew the shortest straw and needed to attend a daytime sale on some lighting supplies, then drive by the church to drop them off. Mostly it was driving in straight lines until he got back to the abbey, which was more disconcerting. Maybe stay at the church til nightfall? No, those naughty boys would draw things on him, no question.
The sale went off without a hitch, but he felt the need to corpse out for a little while, parked in an alley not far from the cathedral film set. He woke up to a crunching sound and looked across the street and saw a hobo breaking into an SUV. Time to drive on... He reached the set, and hauled all the goods inside.
It took three trips. On the second, he noticed someone across the street eyeing the car surreptitiously. Hobos. Whatever, he was going to be in and out quick enough to not give them much time. On the third trip, the hobo was closer, having crossed to the cathedral side of the street. And as he was hustling to get back to the car, the hobo attacked! 
Karl Random-
"You really are Ru Knight, aren't you?"

 Ru- "What are you doing here? I...I um... Yes." Ru seemed surprised enough he kind of wanted to draw his hands back. After all, dressing in costume made him feel MORE IN CHARACTER, but he also felt more awkward out of his element too. "... Really, was that you breaking into cars?"  |

Karl Random-
"Breaking into cars, what..?"
 
Karl Random-
"No, I just... Why did you all fake your deaths? Where did
you get those human teeth? I'm not going to tell, your friend in
the spikes made that clear, but ... I need to know what's going on."
He cast about nervously. The cold daylight streamed through holes in the building like laser beams.

  Ru- "I didn't fake anything, I am actually dead, and a vampire." Ru uses his SPOOKIEST hands, but his most serious voice. Dead serious. Also unamused. This was both the best and the worst prank. "The vampire society is real, and if the secret gets out, they will kill anyone who spreads the word. I am but a cog in the great machine of their gothic empire." |

Karl Random-
"Wh-what? No! It can't be real! ...and yet,
somehow... Somehow coming from you, I believe it."
 
Karl Random-
"I must know everything, no matter the risk... Would you...
Could you... Would you consent to a secret interview with
an inquiring soul?"

 Ru- "I don't see why not, though the threat of death is real. And also not from me, I'm a pacifist." Ru sounded oddly confident in this moment of being caught relatively unawares.

He winced at the thought of dying, but kept on.
Karl Random-
"Yeah... So, uh... should we go somewhere else?
Should we take your car, or... what do you think?"

  Ru- "Well, hm, do you have anything you can invite me to?" He wasn't sure why he was entertaining the delusions of this scorned critic, but he couldn't see the harm in it either. He imagined others would take it as the ramblings of a madman. |

Karl Random-
"Alright. I'll tell my taxi to bug off and ride with
you. Maybe we should go where vampires are
unlikely to be. Do you know where they don't
hang out? How about the west side? It's pretty
dull over there."
Ru thought it possible there'd be Crowboys on the west side,
but he theoretically was in a peace deal with them, and they
wouldn't even be able to recognize him as a vampire in the
daytime, assuming they were awake.

Ru- "It'll be fine. I know just the place." He honestly hoped the Crowboys were still asleep, all things considered. Even if there was a peace deal, they could still decide to be jerks. |

Ru would drive to a suitable place that he would not be uninvited....

There was a cruddy chain diner on the west side where he used
to eat fries with Babette on the rare occasions they visited the area
as humans. Being a vampire in the day this much really reminded
him of being human, though sick. Very sick. He walked in with Random.
Karl Random-
"Yeah... You don't seem well. Should we
get a booth away from the windows?"

 Ru- Ru nodded. "Away from the windows is better..." He eyed it. It was cruddy but he would be darned if he couldn't see his former kindred lurking in their alternative haircuts, enjoying slightly overcooked sweet potato fries while thinking that their 12 rubber band bracelets looked cool. "Alright. Here." |

They took the booth, being tailed by a waitress. 
Karl Random-
"I think I came here once in high school."
Waitress-
"What'll it be today, then?"

 Ru- "I'd like the Sweet potato fries." He was pretty sure he couldn't eat them, but maybe he could give them to the ghoulboys.
