The Devil's Nest [sunset]

Eric was unaware of any transformations to the island inhabitants until he arrived at the Devil's Nest and was assaulted by the greatest hits of the Wiggles and was told by Tiny that the alcohol had all turned into shave ice flavorings.

"This island," Eric grumbled, sitting down at the bar with a blood-flavored shave ice. Mmm.

Are you up after dark? Come in and tell Eric how grooooooss his shave ice flavor is.

The kitchen was offering chicken fingers and mac and cheese. The DJ was spinning the greatest hits of the Wiggles, Raffi, and the Disney musical genre.

Eric wanted to die.

No. Jumping. On. the. Chairs.

Teacup humans!

Or, he could happen to get the child who would mercilessly attempt sad eyes until he shared it.

Oops?

"I'm hungry," Maladicta informed him, not exactly cutting the most imposing figure when she looked like a child.

"How sad for you," Eric told her. "Go find your parents and make them get you a Happy Meal."

"They're not here." Obviously. Since she was slumming with poor people. "I want that," she said, pointing at his drink.

"I really doubt that," Eric replied. "It has blood in it."

Maladicta frowned. "I know that."

Eric frowned and peered more closely. "What sort of idiot turns a child?" he asked, shoving the shave ice at her.

"Ew, I'm not a stupid human." Which made perfect sense in Discworld. Kinda. Just go with it, Eric.

Eric blinked. "Didn't you used to be human?"

"Mother says it's a sign of bad breeding to turn a human," she said, taking a sip of the shave ice. "They're too dim to survive."

"So you were born a vampire?"

Eric tried not to have his head explode as he thought about that.

Yes, that was the normal reaction. "How else would I be one?"

"Being turned as a human," Eric replied. "The...tacky way."

If Kate wanted to go out after dark, then she would and there was no stopping her. Hey, she knew the town was dangerous, she wasn't a dummy: she'd brought protection with her!

... Okay so it was a plastic bronze knife, but it seemed much more impressive to her, and she brandished it at Eric with all her 7-year-old authority once she'd made her way to the bar. "The queen demands a soda!"

She was probably not supposed to have soda, actually. But Eric didn't know that, and she did have an actual (prom) queen's tiara on her head! That clearly meant he should do as she said.

"Snowcones?" Ramona asked as she raced into the bar, peeking up behind the bar. She was up past her bedtime, and pretty soon someone was gonna tell her to go to sleep, but they couldn't make her go yet if she had a snowcone! "You gots a snowcone. Can I have one? I want blue!

"The queen better say please," Eric replied, staring at the fake knife.

"Blue please," Eric prompted.

When did he become this guy? When?

"Can I have blue snowcones please mister?" Ramona asked seriously, struggling to get up on a barstool.

"Very tacky," Maladicta confirmed. "I don't think they know that we're better than them."

Yes. Thank you for the weetiny vampire version of genetic superiority.

She was totally a warrior queen. Yes.

"Nuh uh," Kate objected. "Thas not what a queen does at all!"

"If the queen is a really short one and the person she's talking to has big sharp teeth she does," Eric countered.

"Sure," Eric said. "What the hell."

He watched her struggle for a minute. "Need a boost, teacup human?"
