Top 5 Vampire Monologues from vamp_monologues

[thenewbuzwuzz]

I found this gem of a ficlet collection last November while discussing rarepairs in the Elysian Fields shoutbox. I said, "What if there was a *nice* Turok-Han," and boom: Irishrose, who modded the vamp_monologues challenge back in 2004, happened to be right there. She went, "funny you should ask," and linked me to the first item on this rec list. Then I snooped around some of the rest of the comm and had a fantastic time, because minor character POVs and soulless vampires are two of my favorite things.

Ultimate Evil...or you know, not. by Irishrose (ETA: AO3 link)
Vampire: an Ubervamp
1135 words, PG-13
What if there was a nice Turok-Han!!!

Sheila by sadbhyl
Vampire: Sheila (from School Hard)
1090 words, M
Sheila's POV on the episode and on the line of Aurelius is priceless.

Fearful Symmetry by pepperlandgirl4
Vampire: Darla
1041 words, R
I tried to stick to episodic characters, but this is just plain good writing. (Or, possibly, I have a bit of a soft spot for Darla.)

Prince of Lies - A Path Less Followed by denny_dc
Vampire: Prince of Lies (from Why We Fight)
1236 words, R
An interesting format to match the character and a surprise special guest. :)

Wheels' Musings in the Almighty by timshel_by_love
Vampire: 80s vamp from Fool For Love
659 words, not rated (brief violence, vampire take on religion)
A masterpiece of comedy, you guys.
