First Teaser of the Day: A Change is Gonna Come by Sarifina85
I gave a frustrated sigh. "Would you two nock the attitudes off?" I turned to
Eric and exaggeratedly gestured towards Robert, "Eric, this is Robert."
Turning to Robert, I gestured back to Eric, "And Robert this is Eric." I moved
away from them so they were standing beside each other facing me. Looking them
both in the eye, I folded my arms over the top of my belly and continued,
"It's not Norseman, or Caras, or him, or that vampire, or anything else you
two can come up with. If the two of you can't treat each other in a more
civilized manner, I'll leave ya'll standing here grunting and glaring at each
other like bulls in mating season and I'll go look for Barry alone. You're
both important to me, but I will not keep riding this testosterone train," I
threatened pointing at the both of them accusingly.
Eric's eyes narrowed at me, but Robert started laughing, startling Eric. "Only
you, lígo mitéra, would so admonish two vampires, each with more than a
millennia of age on you. But you are right my dear. Though neither of us has
been fond of the other in the past, I think we can put that aside in the
interest of more pressing matters," Robert chuckled. With a mirthful look, he
turned to Eric and held out his hand. "I believe, Eric, that this is how
humans in this age put their differences behind them."
Eric looked disdainfully at Robert's extended hand, and then turned to me,
"Only for you do I do this, lover," and then he turned back towards Robert and
gripped his forearm. They both reached their other arms across and grasped the
other vampire's elbow as well while they shook hands. Eric simply said,
"Robert." Their faces were still carefully blank, but it was a start. It
wasn't quite how humans shook hands these days, but I could appreciate that
they were both from very different times and I considered it a miracle that
they were shaking hands at all. It reminded me that I need to ask one or both
of my vampires at some point what their history was, but now wasn't the time.
I nodded, satisfied. "That's better. Thank you. I suppose you can both at
least come with to the parking lot again," I said with a smirk.
Eric sighed, and shook his head. "There is no guarantee that you can find the
information you are looking for. Let—" he paused and sighed, "Robert and I
go in. We can glamor the humans to find what we're looking for," he insisted.
"You wouldn't know what humans to glamor though. You could spend all night
glamoring and not find the right information or not ask the humans the right
questions. Humans are easy for me; I can see their thoughts and know just what
to ask and who to ask. I just go in, ask to talk to someone at the top, and
sift through their memories," I rationalized.

You are so on top of things! Can I lick your brain now?
Haha! Thanks Missie. :)
Blog Edit: One thing I just found out on Twitter is that the new Fang Fics blog recommends "Fics with Fangs" only. So lovers of canon and Vamp only stories ... have at it!!
