birthright_rpgMaybe Holly's right. Maybe I'm stuck when I don't have to be.
Vampires get trapped pretty easily. Trapped in time, the era they were turned, the habits they had at the time their human selves died. They didn't have career day where I was living before I was turned, and so I never had the option of developing job skills. The best you could hope for was a meal and maybe a place to sleep, and I only looked for that in between getting high.
Maybe it can be different now. I'm immortal. Even if I'll always look like a teenager, there's no reason I can't change. I was telling the truth, I don't enjoy what I'm doing now. Being used to something isn't the same thing as liking it. I'm not sure what I'd do if I did get off the streets, but it'd at least be a change.
I need to think this over.
