Here We Are

More and more vamps, sprites, and merms were born and created in Europe and the American Union. Now, in 2085, we make up a sizable chunk of the world’s population. Imminent doom hasn’t disintegrated our atmosphere yet, the sun hasn’t destroyed us all, and the oceans are still pretty much confined to where they were in the 2050’s.

There are still hate crimes against the Numans (New Humans, get it? Hardeehar), especially the vamps. The sprites get picked on a lot, due to their size and coloration, but they’ve got a well-established community in most of the world, especially the Asian countries. We have the right to marry (so long as we don’t marry “real people”. Ouch, right?), and the right to vote. We’re almost like real people or something.

I am Sylvia Marie Falkete, and I am 20 years old. I live in Dorado, formerly eastern California, in what was once the desert. My boyfriend’s name is Alphonse Bryan deClair. We’re a couple of gutterpunks, in college, and pretty damn awesome, if I may say so myself.
