Precisely! And yet!
Alucard returned from his watch last month looking like he needed to go back to sleep for a few decades, and he was fucking ceaseless with his sneezing and coffin.
They say that geniuses are always underappreciated in their own lifetime.
I can't believe I am even asking, because I don't actually care, but how did you usually pass the time? When you weren't planning the genocide of all humans, I mean. Obviously.
Any of that would involve you actually going out to do something, you know. Can't picture it.
I suppose you'll need new hobbies. Like dusting. Laundry. Can you even manage that?
Or you can stop haunting the place and prove me wrong by actually making yourself useful. You may as well help clear some of your former neighbors out of the woods the next time I head through.
At the very least, you might confuse them witless for a moment by judging the cadence of their growls or something like that, which could perhaps help slightly speed up the 'mindless slaughter'.
If you ever did go outside, you absolutely seem like the type who would kidnap virgins and convince them it was for their own good. So I assume you danced around batting your eyelashes, convincing stupid vampires to think that your ideas were their ideas all along.
You probably used the really pretty words so they wouldn't notice that you were saying how foolish you thought they actually were.
That's a job you could have managed, right? Spewing cow shit and calling it conversation.
It's called diplomacy. I'm actually quite nice compared to most vampires, I'd say. I see the value in discussion and communication whereas others do not.
Except for his dream team, but they bonded through mutual violence against vampires. ]
For someone who's supposed to excel at diplomacy, you're terrible at humoring your host, who was only attempting to keep you from glooming up the place.

No more boredom.
For a little while.

I never had to dust or do laundry, even before I was a vampire. And as a vampire, I've never much enjoyed mindless slaughter.
But I suppose a walk in the woods now and then would break up the monotony here. And if I am attacked, I'll have no choice but to defend myself.

Brilliant.

Look at that, you may be useful, after all.
