Library [02/21]

Coffee in one hand and laptop tucked under the other, Bridge does some creative juggling in order to fish out the keys to the library from his pocket.

The library is open.

"Magic's... not exactly common where I'm from, but not unheard of either." Bridge admits.

"Magic really only exists in fairy tales on my world. I am not certain about other worlds." Though there was that time on the station... "Are you familiar with a tale about a king and a group of knights that he created?"

"King Arthur?" Bridge ventures a guess.

"Yes. I once met a man claiming to be him."

"Isn't he kind of dead?" Bridge blinks. "...He wasn't a vampire, was he?"

"This man was very much alive. And no, he was not a vampire." The station command staff eventually discovered who he really was. And that was a near shame. "But I did provide him with some assistance. We talked late into the evening and he told me I was worthy to be one of his knights." G'Kar purposefully did not mention the amount of alcohol he'd consumed that night. And the subsequent passing out.

"Cool," Bridge says enthusiastically. "Um, about the knight thing. Also about how he wasn't a vampire, because vampires are very rarely good people. I only know of two of those, and I've run in to plenty more of the not-good kind," he wrinkles his nose.

"I don't believe I've encountered a vampire before. They steal a person's life force, do they not? The closest I've come to that is a SoulHunter."

"If by steal you mean drink their blood, yeah," Bridge makes a face. "With a name like SoulHunters... they don't sound like very pleasant people."

"Sounds like the definition of vampire to me." G'Kar grimaced. "SoulHunters are not pleasant. They do not merely steal one's life, they take the soul. They claim they are 'saving it for prosperity' when they are really depriving the soul of it's natural order."

He frowned even further. "They also only take particular souls. Those they consider 'important'. As if one being is of greater value than another. All life is precious. So the Minbari say. I happen to agree."

Bridge frowns as well. "Me too," he says firmly. "I am a fan of life. And of souls being where they belong."

G'Kar simply nodded. "They are shunned by all worlds. Yet still they persist. One of them tried to take a friend of mine. Fortunately, he did not suceed."
