If you could pull it off, cycling through schools every few decades probably is s viable way to keep up to date with broad advances in sciences and the arts, and get exposed to enough current culture to blend in more effectively.
Although the opportunities to blow the masquerade are intense.
You’re nominally a 17 year old whose family relocated from Topeka for the labour market. You really should not be chastizing Mrs Finster’s history class with your strong, intensely personal feelings about Martin van Buren.
You play the 16 years old guy that look a bit older. Then enroll to a far away university. Move again and play the young looking 30 years old young active. Repeat every 50 years and you have on top of an extended education a background that would pass a check up.
Issue is getting yourself not flagged for being 300 years old when getting a new id thanks to finger prints being a part of your government id. It’s really tough being an immortal in today’s day and age
Of your living out of the system already, it would be easy to feet it false info as long as your stay under the radar.
To those who mention education: Don’t you think 300 years is enough to learn how to learn? Adult education is also a thing.
Also if you’re going to educate yourself who picks a high school in America? Enjoy reading the books that were picked by the Texas Board of Education and then the rest of us have to use for some reason Mr vampires.
To groom some high schoolers of course
This guy gets it
Downside of being permanently underage in appearance, constant harassment about why you’re not in school
Doesn’t get much better in your 20s, when old people harass you for not being at work in the middle of the day, assuming you are unemployed. And not just retirement age, I’ve had this happen with middle aged men that were also not at work
It’s been a while, but when I played hookie back in the day I found that nobody gave even a tiny bit of a shit.
300 years ago that was middle age and nobody cared!
As someone who hit puberty at 8 and could buy lotto tickets unchecked at 16, can’t relate. Really outside of the bags under my eyes and the filled out facial hair I look the fucking same as I did at 18.
Same. Co-worker gets annoyed and confused when I call him kid
I have never had my ID checked to confirm my age.
I mean if you were going to eat a sandwich. Wouldn’t you prefer that no one has fucked it first?
That’s puritanical propaganda. Innocent != virgin. Sex between consenting adults is not a sin, and therefore does not exclude someone from being an innocent blood sacrifice. In fact, I’d prefer my blood sacrifice to know a thing or two about how to use their body!
(no, I did not get whooshed, I’m familiar with the reference. I just disagree.)
EDIT: forgot the text in the OP while I was typing this. Highschool. Ew.
Yeah but I don’t think I’d want to have a family with my sandwich.
Which is probably why you generally don’t hang around underage bacon?
Vamires drink blood, they don’t eat people; no difference.
Something something about sandwiches needing dressing.
Your science knowledge won’t update itself.
Still haven’t seen a viable scientific explanation for having the ability to switch between human form and bat at will…
Keep taking senior year then.
One vict… er… donor at a time.
Victor
I was hinting that I stopped myself from saying “victim.” The “er” is kind of like saying “uh” when you’re trying to think while talking, except it implies that I kept myself from saying something I realized I probably shouldn’t say.
I was commenting Victor.
Well, then I’m lost - why would you say that?
Maybe they either forgot their high school education or they want to see what the current version of it is.
Gotta learn the new math!
Need fresh blood, and nobody’s more “fresh” than teenagers.
That’s the silicon valley logic!
Well, tech bros kinda are vampires in a sense…
Babies?
Probably showing my age here, but “fresh” is sometimes used to refer to someone who’s being a bit too forward in a sexual manner. See the third definition under “adjective” on Wiktionary.
Oh, eww.
Maybe it’s a cultural thing. Like vampires traditionally go to highschool at 300.
