~Int- Chief of Police's Office- Day~

It's a bleak, foggy morning. The coos- no shrieks- of the low-res pigeons echo along the sepiatone streets, outside the office of one Atreo Atherstone, Chief of Police. His mood: morose. His appearance: grizzled and missing an eye for reasons. Mysterious, brooding reasons.

Old Atreo: "How long has it been, Watcher? How long since you forsook us? 100 sim days? 120?"

It's been 3 years, actually. Embarrassing, I know. Life was too hectic, and free time too scarce. Not that it's any better now, but damn it, I need a distraction again! Anyway, let's continue torturing Atreo.

T-posing Police Staff: "Remember, Atreo. Remember that you suck and are still cursed. Let the trauma inflict detailed flashbacks for storytelling purposes."

Old Atreo: "No Watcher, please! I have so many regrets. I've loved and lost. Survived gnome-a-geddon! Don't make me re-visit my past, filled with intrigue and drama."

I haven't talked to him in three years. I'm not planning to start now.

Old Atreo: "Please... I don't want to go back. My memories are just a graveyard of people who deserved better than to know me."

~102 sim days ago~

Arnessa: (in background) "Welp, I've stood and watched this fight for 2 days. I'm out. Let me just grab my favourite enemy urn and... bye!"

Atreo: "I can't watch any more of this! My eyes are stinging from all the dead vampire ash in the air."

Zehra: "Just hang on, I'm almost done with the slaying... I hope."

Vampire 56: "Gah! Y-you staked me in the stomach!?"

Zehra: "I'm tired, okay? Just die!"

Atreo: "You've got this, Zehra! I know you can do it. I'm not gonna lie, though, I got pretty worried between vampires 32 through 45. But once you chugged that 4th moodlet solver, you really rallied."

Zehra: "Ugh, my wrist is really freaking sore."

Vampire 57: "Y-you... s-should soak it for a few hours-" *becomes a pile of ash*

Vampire 58: "Although I have seen many, many, MANY of my kind die to your stakes, I have the self-assured trait, so I'm going to fly at you with full confidence! Bleh, bleh, bleh!"

Zehra: *tackles* Aaaaarrrrggghhh!

Vampire 58: "Oof! I refuse to accept that this was an obvious mistake on my part!"

Atreo: "You'd think I'd be used to seeing all this violence after 2 whole days of it. Just like you'd think I'd remember how I got in this cage."

Vampire 58: "Erm... Is it too late to beg for my life?"

Zehra: "I mean, I won't stop you, but it is too late to cancel this action."

Vampire 58: "No, I get it. I was so confident before; it would be silly to start begging now. Ah, well. Vampire ghost it is. It's not like death has a meaning for us anymore."

Atreo: "Is it finally over? Can I go find a toilet and eat something other than popcorn? Oddly accommodating of them to put a popcorn machine and a comfy chair in the cage with me anyway... Are you okay, Zehra? By the Watcher that was... long."

Zehra: *coughs on copious vampire ashes* Yep... Give me a minute... I'll get you out... Should have asked the watcher to download a dust mask."

Zehra: *unlocks cage* "I am SO sorry for the wait, I'm usually faster at this, but I had some juice at Kiry's party, and it made me all sluggish."

Atreo: "You're... faster at this? There were at least 50 of them-"

Zehra: *coughs* "58."

Atreo: "Okay, gonna ignore those concerning implications- Oh my Watcher Zehra! Are you a young adult now?!"

Zehra: "Oh... yeah I am! I must have aged up during the fight, but my sad missed birthday moodlet got cancelled out by all the moodlet solvers."

Atreo: "You did drink a lot of moodlet solvers. I guess I didn't see the ageing up sparkles past all the dust... How many reward points did you have?!"

Zehra: "I've completed like 20 discovery quests. I think there was a glitch that kept making them regenerate over and over. Gave me a ton of points and potions though."

Atreo: "Well, I'm an hour away from ageing up too, and I just used my last moodlet solver to keep from wetting myself. I don't know what'll be sadder, growing up without a cake or dressed as Sims 2 Don Lothario."

Zehra: "OMW! I totally forgot about your birthday! That's unforgivable! I spent most of my life preparing for this moment. I feel dizzy from shame... And dust."

Atreo: "Also ignoring that, mostly because you just saved me from 50+ vampires."

Zehra: "58."

Atreo: "Yep. Also... I'm kinda getting terrified about what my generation rolls will be."

Zehra: "Ah! I just remembered I have a cake!"

Atreo: "Wha- Huh?! Where did you even get that? And it's fresh? How?!"

Zehra: "Oh, Atreo, don't ask questions you don't want the answers to. I'm quirky! Or erratic. Tomato tomato."

Atreo: "I am grateful. You saved my life... I think? Not sure what they were going to do with me if their plan had worked and they'd 'eliminated' you?"

Zehra: "Probably turned you into a vampire. Don't fret about that; it's over now. I massacred them. Let me quickly conjure some candles so you can age up content and appreciated."
