S: Prepare to fight me if you think there could be an improvement, Internet! You know I will expect detailed studies, and diagrams. Line diagrams are my favorites, just saying.

S: Answers. The more you look into things, the more knowledge you gain. You can never have too much knowledge, if you ask me. Knowledge is power. I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time, it started with my dad writing quite a lot of crime articles when I was a teenager. He could only go and interview whoever was working on the case…or worse, look, describe, and assume. Intriguing, but not satisfying, at least not in my opinion. I love observing, looking for clues, reorganise everything I know until I can see a link. Like…isn’t it fascinating? You take all these tiny, random details, move them around, add some of your own knowledge…and suddenly they get you one step further. The feeling that you get when things suddenly start to line up…I couldn’t imagine my life without it. Every time I solve a case, I feel like I could do anything for a while. No detail would escape me, no mystery would remain uncovered. Of course, that’s not how it really works, but I do come pretty damn close. I guess you just need to think a certain way, and me, investigating is my life. Every asshole I take from the world is an asshole for me to study. I know, that sounds creepy, but…there is so much more behind all the crime than we think. The more I find out about different cases, motives and criminals, the more correlations I will see…hopefully. Patterns they follow. I want to get behind it, behind everything. I love mysteries, I can’t stand it when they stay mysteries. They’re just waiting to be uncovered, and I’m here to uncover. I watch, I take, I learn. It’s that simple.

F: *rolls eyes* Honestly? Load of crap. I don’t know what it is about humankind that they don’t accept anything that isn’t coated in sap and drama. As if real life didn’t suck enough without all the unneccessary extras. I’m telling you, 90% of this shit is made up. Vampires...aren’t a romantic subject in any way. The huge mass of them? Evil. Not in the ‘oooohhhh my thirst is so strong but I will bear it for you and let me slay all your enemies’ kind of way, but actually evil. Backstabbers. Trust me, you do not want to cross paths with them. Chances are pretty big you won’t even make it out alive. Fucking sugarcoating only makes things worse with all those stupid adventurers coming by the Hollow hoping to meet and greet some vamps. It’s a feast for all of them, except me I guess. Being a vampire isn’t all fun and games like they make it out to be. You’re powerful, sure, but what does that matter if you use it to make everyone else’s life hell? Or if you never even wanted it in the first place, if you’d be happy living a perfectly normal life, with a job, not having to hide from your own parents, not being chased by a cop who has no life? It always blows my mind just how many damn cliches they fit into these stories, most of them just make me want to laugh, really. But it stops being funny when applied to real life. I’ve lost count of the times Miracle’s asked me about yet another ridiculous stereotype. If I’m destined to live...or...I guess...die? this way, at least let me do it in peace.

S: Wow…where do I start? There is SO much about it that just…it’s overwhelming. To think about the universe, for a start…just consider how enormous it is in size, how little we’ve explored so far, even though aliens are just another part of our society now and no longer…special in a way that they’re unknown, there must be countless more species out there! All adapted to different climates, immune to different diseases, equipped with special feats, speaking different languages…and then take just Sweet Earth, which really isn’t big in comparison. How much diversity we get by only examining our own planet! Species, habitats…and what’s most fascinating is that it just doesn’t stop! We find out more, and with that knowledge we adapt and evolve so we can find out even more! Just…wow! Mind blown, right? And that endless knowledge…it can help us not only improve equipment, but also the quality of people’s lives. That’s why I decided on my specialisation. I get to explore, do research, experiment, and still, I save lives. It’s beautiful. And now I’ve held a speech and still it only scratched the surface...
