A/N: Hi everyone! As usual, a million thanks for all of you taking the time to write me a review! So thank you fresh-BLOOD-was-drawn-2night, traceybuie, LaurelLeafSinger, UnicornYoda343, CoppertopJ and Guest!

A much lighter one this time! Hope you enjoy it! We're slowly coming to an end too with this little fic, maybe around a handful of chapters left.

So tell me what you think, pretty please! ;)

Volterra, November 11th, 8.03 am

Hi vampires! This blog is now read by more than a hundred vampires! I'm absolutely floored! So I wanted to thank you for reading my ramblings, and thank you for spreading its existence around you. It's truly astonishing, but wonderful. I'm happy to get all your emails and feedback, and see for myself that my family's vegetarian ways are not seen as weird or an aberration anymore. And congratulations for all of you trying to change your diet! You have all my support, like the rest of our expanding vegetarian family! And I'm always here to help as much as I can!

On a lighter note, I wanted to ask all of you about your experiments. Now that many of you have tried animal blood, I wanted to know if we all have the same tastes for animals. We all like carnivores, granted. But what about tasting the worst animals?

I already told you about my aversion to cows, closely followed by sheep. My family agrees with me on them. But after that, we all have our least favourite animals. For me it's rats. I tried one, on a dare, and it was horrendous. Thanks again, GrizzlyBear1915... Just thinking about it makes me shudder. So, my worst animals: cows, sheep, rats. What about you?

Take care, vampires!

Edward

From GrizzlyBear1915, 8.04 am: Very interesting topic, dear brother! And when I remember you drinking this old, shabby rat, and your face... well, I roll around laughing my head off! Now, to answer your question – although you already know the answer – I'd say bats. They taste awful. Sugary, but like tree bark. Disgusting.

From EdwardsMate87, 8.05 am: Good question, my love. I'd say cows and sheep, like you, but my third least favourite would be the crow. Stinking feathery thing.

From EdwardCullen, 8.06 am: When did you taste a crow?

From EdwardsMate87, 8.07 am: The last time you, GrizzlyBear1915 and ConfederatesNeverDie went on an all-boy hunt. The girls and I played truth or dare. I didn't want to choose truth, so BlondeVenus1915 came up with this...

From GrizzlyBear1915, 8.08 am: Interesting. So this is how you spend your time when your men are away?

From BlondeVenus1915, 8.09 am: You don't even know the half of it, GrizzlyBear1915. For me it's the cobra, without contest. Its venom makes its blood repulsive.

From ConfederatesNeverDie, 8.10 am: I remember. It was during our last trip in Egypt, back in the 1970s, wasn't it? I wouldn't have laid one fingertip on the scaly slimy thing. I'm still recoiling from the sight of snakes, even after all this time as a vampire. Now, my least favourite animal, aside from cows or sheep, is the turkey. Not an exotic one, but its blood is so acidic it makes me want to hurl.

From AlaskanWildfire, 8.11 am: Weird. I like turkey once a decade. It's special, granted, but I can appreciate it. The worst animal for me is the reindeer. I simply cannot swallow its blood. It makes me gag.

From EdwardsMate87, 8.12 am: I can relate, AlaskanWildfire. It's on my no-to-eat list too.

From GrizzlyBear1915, 8.12 am: I do hope for all your humans it's the only thing you can't swallow! ;)

From AlaskanWildfire, 8.13 am: You're an idiot and a pig, GrizzlyBear1915.

From BlondeVenus1915, 8.14 am: Don't worry, he'll be in the doghouse for this comment, AlaskanWildfire.

From GrizzlyBear1915, 8.15 am: Babe! It was a joke!

From HappyMumofSix, 8.16 am: A stupid joke, GrizzlyBear1915. Show some respect, please! My turn, I believe. I dislike pangolin intensely.

From GoldenDoc, 8.17 am: Wow, it was back in the thirties, during our year-round trip to Asia. I had almost forgotten. But for me it's the badger.

From SparkyMate, 8.18 am: You, GoldenDoc? You tried a badger? No way!

From GoldenDoc, 8.19 am: Unfortunately I did. Back in the 1900s. One night during a snowstorm. I hadn't found anything in a month, and I was desperate. Never again.

From SparkyMate, 8.20 am: That's harsh. Well, you know my bad experience. The cat. Same smell than soiled litter. Awful.

From SpaininAlaska, 8.21 am: I hate ducks. They probably taste like bread. Disgusting.

From DesertJackal, 8.22 am: I haven't tried many things yet, but I already know that my mate and I won't have any Nubian ibex anytime soon. They're foul-smelling and foul-tasting. Give me a sand cat or a striped hyena anytime!

From TexanNomadsMate, 8.23 am: The significance of our chosen animals seems to be deep and running to our very cores. I'm looking forward to knowing more about this! Sadly my mate and I haven't tasted enough animals to know our likes and dislikes yet, and what it means for us.

From EdwardCullen, 8.25 am: It takes a little time, and lots of trials and errors, but you'll know soon enough, TexanNomadsMate. It's wonderful you've become vegetarians too!

From IrishPride, 8.28 am: Well, we're trying different things here in India. And I can assure you that macaques aren't the best tasting animals. I prefer geckos, they're delicious, but so small :(

From IrishClover, 8.29 am: The wild donkeys aren't on my favourite list either, but I'd rather have one than a macaque, that's true.

From RedCoatsHater, 8.31 am: It's truly incredible, all these experiments! Well then, I must confess I tried a rattlesnake, by accident. It was going to bite the raccoon I had my eyes on, and I drank from both. Oddly enough the raccoon tasted much better.

From EdwardsMate87, 8.32 am: Makes me want to travel the world. But we're stuck here for the next ten years...

From FashionPixie, 8.33 am: Don't worry, EdwardsMate87, you'll be on your way sooner than that ;)

From GrizzlyBear1915, 8.34 am: You haven't told us about your least favourite animal, FashionPixie! We're waiting!

From FashionPixie, 8.35 am: It's the wart hog. No sense of fashion, and it stinks so much! And don't you dare go through what you're thinking, GrizzlyBear1915! I won't have any wart hogs here!

From GrizzlyBear1915, 8.36 am: You're no fun. I can't even plan pranks anymore...

From BlondeVenus1915, 8.37 am: Two days in the doghouse. Shame on you, wanting to play awful pranks on our locked-up, defenceless siblings.

From GrizzlyBear1915, 8.38 am: Dammit! No!
