[In retrospect, Alucard is immensely tall by comparison. Despite his exhaustion and slow recovery, he maintains a grace about him, even as he stands from a desk he'd been organizing.

In return, he offers the bow of his head.] It is good to meet you in person, Revan.

Please, I understand. Seat yourself, and I will answer any questions you have. I suppose I should begin by explaining what I will do.

[He gestures Revan to a chair, if he chooses.]

Vampires typically will bite the neck of their ... choice, then drink the blood that comes to the surface. We have the fangs for it. It will feel like a pinch, but after that it should be painless.

In better circumstances, I would draw with a needle, but we have nothing like that here. So this is, unfortunately, what I must do.

I will not take more than agreed upon.

[No matter how terribly tempting.]

I can answer any other questions you may have.
