[Layla's been careful to wait until the disorientation has worn off before making a post on her NV. The Greeter has explained some of the basics, and while it's all a little hard to swallow, she's aware that she's not being lied to.

When she turns on her NV, the network gets to see a teenage girl with red eyes, dark hair, and an odd skull hairpin that's matching her facial expressions, if one is watching closely enough. Another detail the more observant denizens might pick up on is her long incisor teeth, but only if they look carefully. She's not showing her fangs off.]

Hello, Siren's Port. My name is Layla Delacroix. I'm not from around here and I've got a few questions for you. First things first: have any of you seen my little sister, Nina? She's got green eyes, purple and black hair, she's tiny, friendly, and she loves chocolate. She'll probably be totally freaking out, so if you find her, give her some chocolate and let her know that Layla's going to come and find her, all right? Also, if anyone's seen people named Tiffany Winters, Diodore Renoir, or Kade Whiteclaw, let me know.

[Even with just the limited information she's managed to learn so far, Layla really doesn't like the idea of her innocent little sister running around here unattended.]

Second: I need blood. I'm ah...severely anemic. I also get very bad sunburns, so it would be better if we met after dark. Help a girl out? I can't exactly go and get a job if I'm too out of it to work.

[No one will figure out that she's a vampire, right? Of course not.]

Third: Cute clothes. Anyone know where I can find some in this city? As nice as my dress is, wearing it every single day is all kinds of tacky.

[She makes a face. Whether it's the idea of wearing the same thing every day or her next question that she finds distasteful is anyone's guess.]

Oh. And my fourth and last question - is anyone hiring for later shifts? I'm kind of a night person.

Bad sunburns, huh? Meeting at night might be a problem. Has no one told you about the Darkness?

[There's a suspicious face. But aversion to sunlight means a different thing to this guy.]

How bad are the Darkness monsters? I've heard a little about them and that it's safer to be inside at night, but I am a pretty fast runner.

Well, generally it's not too bad, but the rule of thumb is, however strong you are, however fast you are, however tough you are, there's always something stronger, or faster, or tougher. And they'll be drawn to you. I ran into one the very night I got here.

For that reason, there aren't many people who work night shifts. You'd be stuck inside until dawn.

Oh, that's really unfortunate. I'll have to get a full length trenchcoat, a big hat and some sunscreen. It's just a shame to cover up this much sexy.

You're anemic and get bad sunburns... [Also hello red eyes and pointy teeth. You might notice the same with Seras, Layla.]

Can't you go to a hospital?

[She does notice that.]

Can you tell me how to get there with as little time in the sun as possible?

[A very short time, she can stand. Anything more than that, and it will get painful and eventually vampire flambee.]

Uh... I don't suppose you'll have any of the local currency on you, else I'd suggest hailing a cab.

How bad is it for you, exactly? I could fetch you a brolly to borrow.
