Episode 1: Sageing While Aging

[teetheyes]

If you're just tuning in, let me congratulate you on being one of the few people who can still operate a radio without help from an adult. [laugh] But don't count yourself lucky yet, you're only lucky if you didn't get hit. For others it's not an option, they were never young and they'll never get old. That's fun stuff there, living in limbo. I hear that immortality's not all it's cracked up to be. Ask your nearest mortal neighbor what's on the horizon after they've gone over the hill; death. Ask your nearest vampire and the only thing they can count on is boredom after death. That's a pretty shitty deal, because sageing while aging turns into a stale act after the first couple centuries.

Not that the rest of you ephemeral bastards have it any easier. Every now and then I see a kid who's got potential and he throws it away for shit that goes obsolete the next week. I guess in this dump we'd call it a soul [heh]. He's got everything but the world, it's his right to be unhappy [puff of smoke]. Everyone's too wrapped up in their own personal story to consider perspective. You'd think with a colorful population somebody'd give her a call.

Hey maybe that's what this curse is about. Unless you're a programmed machine, you do most of your learning in those early formative years. Do you think the City is trying to drop a hint? [pause] No, it's just fucking with you as usual, but you know the whole thing about lemons. Have some fun while you're at it, play hero to those kidnappings, play victim to the corruption of innocence. The network will feel the weight of your shame in the morning.

[ooc: Mod-approved! Songs are played between bits of dialogue. As far as the radio host is concerned, Cori's speaking anonymously and that applies to the written transcriptions on his LJ. It's just easier and more efficient to put them here instead of creating a 'ghost' account. So please consider Radio Entries as anonymous and any spam here will be answered by anonymous. Thanks guys ♥]

Dyed your hair did you? Or is it bleach?

[ooc: He's careful not to give his own identity away too lulz.]

[pitfallen.livejournal.com]

W-What? No, you get kicked out of school for that!

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

The former or the latter?

[pitfallen.livejournal.com]

I-I don't dye my hair! It's always been like this!

[beer-over-blood.livejournal.com]

You're preaching to the bloody choir.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

Chorus of one, two, maybe three or four.

[one-of-heaven.livejournal.com]

...hah. How the media bites.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

Tell me what it's like, being a nanny.

[one-of-heaven.livejournal.com]

No erotic scandal to report yet?

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

Several children seem to have gone missing. The resident homunculus Greed would be a suspect, but he's also succumbed to this curse. Perhaps it's an underages orgy. What are your thoughts?

[venomouselle.livejournal.com]

Can we get some Duran Duran on this or something?

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

Old school or new school?

[venomouselle.livejournal.com]

Old? The hell are you talking about? They really aren't that old.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

My mistake, how does "Rio" sound?

[ex-janvalent852.livejournal.com]

Hey I've been anything but fuckin bored after dyin!!

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

Well either you've found a new lease on unlife or you're a fledgling.

Vampires are not entirely immortal.. Quite the opposite, really. And not all of us are dead.

[ooc; this is haggard!mommy!Subby taking a moment to say hello xD Paprika would join but i figure her young=atsuko young=nonexistent:D;;;]

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

Enlighten me, guest.

[ooc: Aww still Paprika rabu.]

[gemini-running.livejournal.com]

For myself, if I lose a great deal of blood, I will die like any other. I've heard some Vampires being allergic to daylight or silver. An acquaintance of mine, for a time, was only partially a vampire and thus could only feed off of one person... We aren't really dead because we haven't truly died. It's more of.. a transition?

I'm not quite sure why I'm speaking to you about this.. I'm sorry to trouble you with it.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

You keep saying whatever you want, I won't tell.

[glock30.livejournal.com]

None of that sounds fun at all.

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

What's your idea then?

[glock30.livejournal.com]

Being with all our friends. Isn't that yours?

[bitingnightmare.livejournal.com]

That depends on whether I know who my real friends are, right?
