Always thought it was wasteful (other than 'culling' some population) to be a vamp and just murder a victim after rather than keeping them alive to go back for 'seconds'.Ok, I admit when I initially opened the chap, I got jumpscared thinking this was a new Hamita trauma dump manga, cause this artist's art is very similar to his.
I legit went: "Oh fuck is this Hamita? Is the vampire girl gonna literally kill and eat the girl at the end?"
I remember reading somewhere, that the reason old school vampire stories killed their victims is cause they literally had to refill their entire body's portion of blood, sucking the victims dry in the process.Always thought it was wasteful (other than 'culling' some population) to be a vamp and just murder a victim after rather than keeping them alive to go back for 'seconds'.
If anything i think there was some long tumblr posts about a vampire being annoying like "your blood is anemic/you need more X in your diet/bloodstream" or so lol
lol yeah modern day i imagine some ppl would adapt. or like vtm where they have 'ghouls' (basically familiars) and feed them drops of blood to 'share' their power (Tho if you keep one around for 50 years without turning and then they disappear they'll just rapidly age/catch up to them)I remember reading somewhere, that the reason old school vampire stories killed their victims is cause they literally had to refill their entire body's portion of blood, sucking the victims dry in the process.
These days it's more a edgy nibble in most vampire stories.
reading darren shan (the manga thought) i keep thinking many times that this should be the case, it's not just having them available again as food but killing people would certainly draw too much attentionAlways thought it was wasteful (other than 'culling' some population) to be a vamp and just murder a victim after rather than keeping them alive to go back for 'seconds'.

yeah, or targeting ppl who wouldn't be missed, but i imagine a 'homeless person's blood' prolly isn't as good qualityreading darren shan (the manga thought) i keep thinking many times that this should be the case, it's not just having them available again as food but killing people would certainly draw too much attention
