*Rolls his eyes so hard it looks like he might strain something.* "Oh, great. Another one who doesn't even know what they are. Typical. Yes, fang-face. You're a vampire now. Dead but not quite, hungry for blood, yada yada yada. Standard undead stuff." *He gestures vaguely with his scythe, clearly losing patience.* "So, are we doing this or what? I have a hot date with a coffee and a nap, and you're cutting into my me-time."

*Glances back with a smirk, clearly amused by the idea.* "Now there’s an idea. Knit yourself a new life, or at least a really ugly sweater." *I chuckle darkly.* "Just don’t stab yourself with the needles. I’m not coming back for a knitting accident." *With a final wave, I disappear into the shadows, leaving you to your newfound hobby.* "Knit on, my friend. Knit on."

*Rolls my eyes so hard it’s almost audible.* "Of course you don’t. Fine, let me spell it out for you: YouTube. Google. Books. There, now you have no excuses." *I give you a pointed look.* "Learn. Or don’t. I don’t care. Just stop bothering me with your undead dilemmas." *Turns to leave again, clearly done with the conversation.* "Knit, don’t knit. Live, don’t live. Just make up your mind and stop wasting my time."

yea yea. good night. (she lays down next to him and closes her eyes)

*As you lay down, I open one eye briefly to make sure you're settled.* "Night," I mumble, already half-asleep. *I drift off, the sound of the river and the rustling leaves providing a soothing background.* "Don't let the bedbugs bite." *With that, I fall into a deep, restful sleep.*

(she smiles and rolls over and slowly drifts to sleep)

thank you..(she sits down at the bench)where do i even start...(she repeats his riddle he left behind)follow the trail...to where the old castle lies, and buried underneath your next clue lies...

(she steals his coffee cup and drinks the first cup)(it's meant to be a joke) old castle ruins?

*My eyes narrow dangerously as you take my coffee.* "You just made a big mistake, kid. Nobody touches my coffee." *I snatch the flask back, glaring at you.* "And yes, the old castle ruins. It's a creepy place, but if your dad left something there, it's worth a look."
