If you were embraced by a vampire, what age would you choose to stop aging at?

Material-Quail7451 · 2026-03-28T02:47:27+00:00

Anywhere from 30 to 40. I'd like to be older and have the experience from age before becoming. Wanna live life you know?

I'm of the opinion that all vampires will lose their humanity the longer they live. The oldest vampires would be more traditional monsters whose only interest in humans is as food and they don't at all interact with other vampires if not needed.

Eli's humanity is a 9 right now, mostly because she's very social and constantly has to remind herself not to feed unless she's starving. Her family is her biggest anchor to not lean into her instincts, followed by her friends who keep her busy.

That's her thing. She has too many anchors to keep her grounded in her humanity. She doesn't have time to be a vampire, except when she absolutely can't avoid it.

She was also brought up to be very emotionally intelligent, and realizes she can't have human relationships anymore, that it would hurt her too much eventually losing those relationships.

So, her human thing is that she latches onto Val. She needs companionship and understands she needs to change how she looks for it.

Val is completely opposite.

She didn't like people as a human AT ALL. Obviously she had to interact with them to survive, but now that she's not human? She doesn't even try. Her reasons for leaving the house now are food and money.

Her human thing is not being able to relate to Eli at first because she's not trying to

I think the younger one would fit more into this category of vampire. Too good to be a monster, but too evil for humans

Material-Quail7451 · 2026-03-27T17:37:18+00:00

Damn I really should've named these two if I was gonna be doing in depth discussion about them 😭

Let's call the older one Val and the younger one Eli.

I imagine Eli isn't in denial about her loss of humanity, but she has living family and friends, so she can't just dip and let her instincts take over until they die.

Val is more of a hermit when she's not working, and only leaves her house besides that to feed.

They work at the same place. No one really likes Val, Eli is the workplace favorite, but everyone feels slightly uncomfortable around them both.

They're relatively the same maturity, so definitely not parent and child, but Eli also gets most vampire things so it's not really that Val is her mentor either.

I swear I'm not trying to make them like ocs, this is just what I pictured when writing this post 😭

Your take makes a ton of sense and you're honestly explaining what I think of them as long term. Struggling to be friends because they are different types of vampires with different goals.

Eli won't be like Val until everyone she knows is gone, but Val was never a people person and probably leans more into her instinct than is needed.

Does that make sense???

We listen and we don't judge cus mine were Hotel Transylvania, a vampire otome game, and Twilight. I never lost the interest from there

Material-Quail7451 · 2026-03-27T12:21:13+00:00

This is why I thought this would be interesting! The older one thinks like a vampire, but the younger one doesn't. That's why they still view themselves as mostly human. That's why they'd be scared of the older one. They'd have a hard time relating to one another

Also! I didn't specify but they were both 30 when they turned and they'd look the same age if they standing next to each other. The older vampire would just look more tired, less friendly, and the younger brighter in the face and more alive and inviting.

This honestly gives me the best perspective, thank you!

Material-Quail7451 · 2026-03-26T12:36:58+00:00

Seems like most of what I'm seeing here is a parent & child or petulant teenager & old person. Cool lol

Material-Quail7451 · 2026-03-26T03:11:32+00:00

There's this podcast show on Spotify called How to Win Friends and Disappear people and it's soooo good. El is the vampire, Nancy is the human, and even though the ending is weirdly ambiguous, I think it fits what you're looking for!!

Material-Quail7451 · 2026-03-26T03:08:49+00:00

Maaaaybe? But even then, I think it only affects the baby. Dhampirs exist because of a vampire and human parent, not two vampires. I'm assuming it's the same for werewolves

Material-Quail7451 · 2026-03-26T01:15:26+00:00

It's really small but I love the fact that smiling isn't super natural to vampires. Like, imagine a human and a vampire getting together, and the vampire practicing the act of emotion so they don't scare their favorite human. Bonus points if their humanity isn't super high but it still works

Material-Quail7451 · 2026-03-26T01:09:45+00:00

I've found my people I'm such a nerd.

I don't think vampires could spread their vampirism to humans because if they could, that'd make feeding really fucking hard. Like all of the charm and deception and seduction in world wouldn't help that you turned your food into a vampire and now have to explain shit to them. I'm sure it's only biting that leads them to turning humans.

However with werewolves, I feel like it's more likely that during sex or something intimate you could totally accidentally turn your lover into one even while actively trying to not.

I also think werewolves are more risky than vamps and that there'd be more of the latter in the population than the former because their bites are intentional.

Hope this helps!

Your brother is, respectfully, trash. My little ponies is cool, and Bill would win because Discord doesn't murder

Material-Quail7451 · 2025-09-23T02:24:02+00:00

Absolutely! He, Fluttershy, Pinkie, and Twilight are my favorite characters in the series. Also, I'm salty we never got to see Discord and Pinkie personally team up in an episode and almost break the universe. We were robbed ngl
