The Vampire shudders slightly "Yes well"

She pats Earl's arm, affectionately. "He is a physical creature. Very loyal."

"Dawww" Earl says and looksat her like a very smitten piece of meat loaf

The Vampire shakes his head "Yes, well, please, do go."

"Aye, indeed." A squeeze of Earl's arm, silently urging haste.

And they slip away...

Earl mutters "My upper left pocket. While you can"

Zara checks the pocket.

There's a pen there

An affectionate pat and she puts it back. "Good job. Now - home."

And to home they go, for it is not wise to linger in the gaze of the ... 🎼 Artful Dead
