Yelp

Woke this morning with a yelp at about 5 am. Nathalie woke up too. I couldn't explain anything so I didn't try.

As I turned over to go back to sleep, I tried to understand myself. The yelp had come when I turned around in the bathroom where I was standing and saw at least one, possibly several, human bodies hanging in the shower. They'd been deboned, or perhaps deveined.

In any case, the blood had been completely drained from the bodies, and they were opened as if someone intended to use the skins as rugs.

Before I wandered into the bathroom, I'd been at some sort of debauched aristocratic party. They were trying to convince us to drink a sort of highly alcoholic, Eastern European sparkling ice wine. It's not clear whether I was there as a guest or as one of the servants. Some of the guys were definitely gangster types, wearing royal blue robes, very blue eyes.

It seemed they were vampires. My logic said they wanted people to get drunk because although they couldn't drink wine themselves, they could get drunk if the blood they drank had enough alcohol in it.
