[door opens]
{vampire; jokingly}
I want to suck your blood. Bleh!
*listener chuckles*
{vampire; ruffled}
Hey, donāt laugh at me! My vampire costume is very convincing and very scary! These might even be real blood stains, you donāt know!
*listener comments*
Okay fine! Itās just ketchup! But thatās only because I donāt want to waste any blood! Now invite me inside, itās freezing out here!
*listener invites*
Thank you. So what are you supposed to be? Cause all I see is a tasty snack.
*listener questions*
{vampire; denial}
No! That wasnāt flirting! I was just playing into the vampire bit! Donāt read into it. So what are you supposed to be?!
*listener responds*
{vampire; cavalier}
A werewolf? Whatās up with the red belt?
*listener responds*
āItās supposed to look like bloodā? It looks like laziness to me.
*listener accuses*
{vampire; annoyed}
Yeah, I dress up as a vampire every year! Itās not because Iām lazy, itās because Iām efficient. I already have the fangs, the skin, and the eyes. I just pull out my old cape and boom, scary vampire!
*small pause*
And you donāt get to talk! Werewolf costumes are just an excuse to wear torn clothes and fluffy ears!
*listener combats*
Oh, itās a full moon tonight? Iām ~so~ scared! Please werewolf! Youāre so big and strong, please donāt give in to your animal urges andā¦
(suppresses laugh)
ā¦eat me!
(laughs)
{vampire; happy}
Iām sorry, I just canāt do that with a straight face. Iām like a foot taller than you. When you try to look menacing itās so cute! I just want to pet those fluffy ears and rub your belly!
{vampire; puppy talk}
Would you like that? Would you like to be my good, little puppy?
*listener objects*
{vampire; contented}
Oh, you donāt like it when I call you that? Well, maybe that will teach you to wear a better costume, puppy. Anyways, I just came by to pick up my little doggie for the fae party. They're doing a hedge maze this year and I want to be the first to make it to the center. So hurry up and letās go!
[door closes]
*time skip*
[outdoor sfx]
Just in time! You're a terrible driver you know that? You had us so lost!
*listener objects*
{vampire; defensive}
It doesnāt matter if Iām the one with the map, youāve lived here youāre whole life you should know your way around!
{vampire; changing the subject}
Hurry up! You walk ~so~ slow,~puppy~ and we only have a few minutes before they open up the maze!
*short pause*
{vampire; excited}
Thereās the crowd! I think theyāre about to open it! Letās get to the front, we need every advantage we can get! Iām going to run as soon as they open the doors. I know you wonāt be able to keep up, but Iāll scratch the ground whenever I hit a dead end. That way you can follow after me.
*listener begins to speak*
Donāt worry about little details, puppy! Iāll share the prize with you once ~I~ win it. Itāll be like-
[air horn]
{vampire; cutting themself off}
Weāve got to go! See you at the cenā¦ ter?
{vampire; confused}
Iām not zooming!
{vampire; annoyed}
(miffed sigh)
The fae must have some magic on the maze to level the playing field.
*small pause*
Come on then. Weāll have to try twice as hard to make it!
[jogging sfx]
{vampire; confidently}
Left here. You can see people turning around to the right, obvious dead end. Donāt stop for any of the scares, we have a race to win!
*listener comments*
Donāt give me any of that āmissing the forest for the treesā stuff. Iām not here for kiddie scares, I want whatever prize the fae would deem maze worthy! Itās got to be something amazing likeā¦ well something! I donāt know! What matters is that weāre going to find out!
*pause*
Split path coming up. And weāre too far ahead to cheat off others. Weāll have to split up. Iāll take the left. Rush back if itās a dead end. See you at the finish!
*duo splits up*
{vampire; thinking to themself}
I havenāt hit a stop yet, so the right turn must have been the dead end. I canāt stop so I guess theyāll just have to catch up.
[wolf howls]
See, thatās what Iām talking about! Everyone always picks werewolf. But itās kinda impressive someone could howl that loud. Maybe itās a costume with a speaker or something.
*pause*
Puppy knew Iād just take lefts until I hit a dead-end, right? Thatās just maze strategy so they must know. Iām sure theyāll catch up soon.
*small pause*
Come to think of it, this is my sixth left turn. The maze must do some weird spiral thing. Iām going to be so mad if after all this running, left was wrong.
(huffs)
{vampire; angry, out loud}
[jogging stops]
All this and itās a dead-end! Iāve wasted so much time! Now I have to turn around andā¦
*path backward is gone*
Ugh! The fae must have some weird maze magic in here to cover up the path I took!
*small pause*
If I turn around and the path forward is revealed, Iām going to be pissed!
*turns*
Oh sure enough! Real clever making me waste that time for a jumpscare gag! Get out of my way scarecrow, I have a prize to win!
[jogging starts]
[wolf howls]
{vampire; thinking again}
There goes some moron howling again. That better not be my puppy goofing off when they should be running.
*small pause*
Actually, if this maze is all magic and stuff, I probably wonāt see them again for a while. I doubt theyāll be able to retrace my steps.
*small pause*
Oh well, still more ground covered. I guess it doesnāt matter too much.
[nearby growling]
Another scare trap! I bet they put those on the correct path to ward people off. Iāll just turn this corner and match right through!
(yelp)
[jogging stops]
{vampire; impressed, thinking still}
Wow, thatās kinda spooky! Pretty impressive werewolf costume, it even kinda moves when they breathe! Weird that they have the belt too! I guess it must be popular.
{vampire; outloud}
Alright Fido, thatās a nice outfit but you need to move! Iāve got to get past you.
[growls]
Yeah, yeah. Youāre terrifying. Now move out of the way. Iām trying to get a move on and you practically take up the whole path.
*small pause*
Here, just come over this way and we can use the crossroads for me to get past you. Come on doggy, come here.
(whistles)
This way buddy, just keep walking.
{vampire; thinking}
They even made the blood smell real! Those fae went above and beyond, this thing absolutely reeks!
{vampire; outloud}
Okay, pal, youāve done a great job, now move andā¦
*speaker turns*
{vampire; annoyed}
Oh great! The way back is gone! So how am I going to get around you-!
{vampire; surprised}
Oh! Youāre gone too. I suppose thatās convenient. Iāll just run this way andā¦
[plastic snaps]
Whatād did I just break?
*small pause*
Itās a pair of wolf ears? Must be Puppy trying to leave me a trail!
[jogging starts]
{vampire; hyped}
Finally, theyāre getting their head in the game! Alright, so that means itās a right at this turn then, Oh! Thatās their clip-on tail! They're really stripping out here, arenāt they? I wonder if Iāll get to catch a peakā¦
{vampire; catching themself}
Ah! I canāt think like that. Weāre just friends. And I already dragged them into this maze. I justā¦
(sniffs)
{vampire; worried}
This tail has blood on it. And I think itās theirāsā¦
{howl}
Okay, that sounded really close. Fido?! Is that you again?
{vampire; thinking}
The wolf is nowhere to be found, and the trail is running cold. I think the ambiance is actually starting to get to me. I just need to calm down and keep-.
[jogging stops]
{vampire; startled, out loud}
Fido! Youāre back! And you covered in bloodā¦ and you smell just like... Puppy? Is that you?!
[snarls]
Woah, alright! No more puppy talk! Just calm down! What happened to you? Youāre actually a werewolf! How did this happen?! Did the fae do something?
[growls]
Woah, stay calm buddy! The faeās magic has me all weak and mortal, so I need you to stay docile! Iām sure youāre hungry or maybe other emotionsā¦ but just stay back!
*werewolf approaches*
This isnāt funny! Donāt hurt me! Just stay back and-!
[roars]
Aahhh!
[monsotours laughter]
{vampire; confused}
Are you laughing at me!
*listener speaks*
āGotchaā? Was this a joke?!
*listener confirms*
Youāre working with the fae to scare people! Really?! You almost gave me a heart attack! I thought you were a monster!
*listener retorts*
No, you being menacing isnāt cute anymore! Youāre like ten feet tall and youāve got a mouth full of teeth! Itās terrifying!
*listener speaks*
{vampire; irate}
Yeah, I guess you got me! Good job! Is that what you wanted to hear?! You owe me for this one! In fact, I demand you help me find the treasure in this maze! Repay me for my emotional damage!
*listener informs*
Itās all candy! Thatās it?! But the fae had been praising the loot for days! Itās all just a treat for the kids?!
*listener confirms*
(annoyed sigh)
Of course! Thatās just typical! All this effort and what do I get? Nothing but-!
(yelps)
(kiss)
What was that?!
*listener explains*
I know it was a kiss, idiot! But you picked now?! Iāve been sending hints for months and you kiss me in the middle of the night, in a maze, while youāre transformed into a furball?! Really?! I just canāt with you sometimes!
*listener questions*
{vampire; happier}
Yeah, I liked it! Iām even kind of into the whole monster thing. I like you a lot, thatās why weāre friends. Iām just annoyed that you pulled this whole prank thing!
*listener apologizes*
{vampire; mischevous}
Itās okay. In fact, thereās something you can do to make it all better.
(kiss)
Come on, ~Puppy~. Letās get out of this maze.
