Fifth Vlog | Video | Daemon: hunterd

[bratpack]

[ Hey everyone, welcome to the party in the woods! Or at least, what you can see of it behind this close up of Wyatt's grinning face. There are glittering lights in the background and the weird, mismatched music of the party can be heard. Wyatt has to raise his voice to be heard over it. ]

What is up guys my name is Wyatt, you probably all know that. Unless you're new, in which case, hey! Welcome to the Apocalypse! It's pretty dope here, you probably noticed. I'm telling you, F.A.T.E.S is so cool that he - or she. Or they? I don't know, whatever: they're so cool that they threw a full on multiple-day spanning party just for my birthday. Hey, F.A.T.E.S. -

[ He lifts his glass, filled with an unholy mixture of frothy golden beer, and deep burgundy wine, and salutes the camera. ]

- thank you, my guy. Slash girl. Slash, whatever you are. Hey, you should join us at some point, so that we know what the fuck to call you. Anyways.

[ He takes a drink of his disgusting cocktail, then drops down to sit on a pile of cushions. It's now evident that he's opted not to wear a shirt, but he is wearing cutoff jean shorts. The camera, otherwise known as his daemon Hunterd, follows to keep him in focus. ]

I got a kind of serious thing to talk about. The whole birthday thing has me thinking about, like. Age. And getting older, and shit, which you know, is important when like most of the people you know don't actually do that. When all your friends are like, hundreds of years old and fucking immortal, it puts a new spin on how it feels to be nineteen. I have one year left of teenage dreaming, people. [ He holds up his finger. ] One. So I'm thinking, like. Okay, I'm just gonna ask you, cause that's the whole point of this vlog.

If you had the choice to just not get older, but live forever. Would you do it? Like, is there a con to this pro? I mean, there'd be the whole, 'must drink the blood of the living to survive', deal, but my friends seem to manage okay. Vamps ain't so bad from what I've seen. So, yeah. Your thoughts, please, Youtube-Lite. I'm listening.

and get stuck with you forever? hell no.

wyatt, i'd be over the moon if you turned. i shouldn't be telling you that, though, cause i shouldn't be influencing your decision.

i did change when i was super young, and i didn't really think about it. i wouldn't change my mind, i know that for sure. but i might have gone about it differently.

[bratpack]

if you're not gonna influence me who is? it's your family i want in on, man

but what does that mean anyways? i know you turned cause you loved rafa, you ain't gonna tell me you wouldn't still do that now.

[varou]

i didn't say i wouldn't still do it!!

i just mighta waited till after i had at least one brat the natural way.

[bratpack]

[ ... ]

you would've had kids?

like with a girl?

[varou]

like. surrogacy. or however they do it.

i mighta figured it out!!

[bratpack]

sure. cause people knew about that shit like 400 years ago or whatever.

for real though, you would've wanted kids?
i always wanted kids. figured i'd have them by now, you know, if i'd stayed with my pack

[varou]

i dunno. i didn't really think too hard about kids back then. didn't think about a lotta things, though. maybe if i slowed down i mighta thought about it before you.

but having you? like.... i like being a dad.

do you still want kids?

[bratpack]

wait so. i made you want more kids? me.

[ That's. Wyatt doesn't know what to think about that. ]

i didn't
shit, man. i mean can't you still do it? it ain't like there's just surrogacy, you could like. adopt, maybe
i'd like that.

and i do want kids. yeah. i just, you know, i'm with vex, and i don't know if he's even into that. he ain't super into like, formal commitment or anything

[varou]

right?? you. not sure how but right???

but yeah no. i can still look into other options. just can't make any kids of my own. me or henry. or rafa. i think koda still can, not that i know if he wants too.

i haven't actually talked about all of this with any of them yet..... so yeah. keep it low. lower than me posting it all out here but you get it.

but my point is, i have like a couple options tops now for kids. and it's cause my other ones are all gone. and i don't regret what i am but having more options is never a bad thing.


so like figure that stuff out with vex. find out if he wants kids. don't put the conversation off a few hundred years when your options get more limited.

[bratpack]

dude i won't tell anyone. i think you should, though. like if that's what you want, then you should

cause you're what, like, a thousand years old. you probably want to get moving on that whole thing. and if i have to talk to vex then you have to talk to rafa, okay, that's the deal here

[ God, how is talking to Vex even going to go. Wyatt's own nervousness about raising the subject tells him a lot about how positive he's not feeling. ]

like. i mean what would you do if rafa said no. hypothetically, like if he just didn't want kids and you still did?
