It was a regular day for Manuel. In other words, he had nowhere to be, nothing to do, and no motivation to do anything other than wander around aimlessly.

The anniversary of his sister’s death had come and gone. The emotional turmoil had faded away, but he felt curiously flat, like it had taken the rest of his emotions with it.

He’d had a quick breakfast before he left his flat, but hadn’t even thought about eating anything since then. He didn’t know how long it had been. He wasn’t keeping track of time. He barely felt hungry, and more importantly, he didn’t care.

He walked around, considered stealing something from a convenience store he passed, just because he could, but there wasn’t anything appealing enough to be stolen even for no reason. Eventually he came to a bench, sat, and watched traffic passing by until it was making him feel irritable instead of just empty.

He stood, and that was when the lack of food finally caught up with him. The sudden change in position made his head swim, and he staggered just enough to put himself in the path of someone who’d been about to walk by.

“Sorry,” he said, once his head had cleared enough for him to realise what had happened.

While it wasn't the best reason not to fuck people over, it was at least a reassuring one. Him being unable to. If he was telling the truth, of course. "But you're vamper bait like the fullbloods."

It would certainly explained the vampire's reaction, way back when.

"Apparently," Dutch agreed, briefly wondering if she could make use of that to reveal the existence of vampires to the world. Too complicated, and dealing with fairies was just as dangerous as dealing with vamps. "So, what else? Any more pros and cons to this whole changeling thing?"

"Sweet deal," Dutch remarked.

Dutch frowned slightly, then admitted, "I can't tell if that's a pro or a con."

"Yeah, exactly," Dutch agreed.

"Now that's definitely in the pro column," Dutch remarked. She'd had more than her fair share of those lately.

"What, like a vampire?" she asked with a surprised frown. She'd never heard of nocturnal fairies.

"They burn up in direct sunlight," Dutch stated, figuring that was what he meant. "So yeah, they have to be nocturnal."

"What are you like?" Dutch shot back, rather predictably.

"And you don't give a shit about vitamin D, I'm guessing," Dutch supplied.

"Are you... adapted to night life?" Dutch asked, thinking of nocturnal animals and the many ways they had adapted to life in obscurity.

It definitely was. "Is that it?"

"Is there a - community - of changelings?" Dutch asked. She was as curious about supernatural society as she was about supernatural creatures, yes.
