Greetings one who has stumbled up this!

So this has been developing for some time (since July of 2015 actually). It started off from writing prompts for WattVampires' summer contest of that year and later the idea came of "What if I do something revolving around the many tropes and reoccurring themes in vampire fiction?" Thus was born "Let's Go For A Pint".

Some things to point out:

  - Your Mileage May Vary: What appears as a chunky piece of text on your mobile device may be a perfectly, normal-sized paragraph on the web version.  

- (Edited June 11, 2017) The first season consists of 10 Episodes, each with six parts. It's up to you whether you want to treat each part as individual chapters or the episodes as a whole chapters split into parts.  If time and creativity permit I may add some shorts stories to expand a bit on the characters.

- Each episode will address a trope or more of some sort. You won't find an overarching plot but each episode will have their own plots and may be referred to in other episodes. Best to approach this not as a whole novel but a set of interconnected stories.

- Stories are told in somewhat of a flashback narrated from Lena's perspective. If the tenses do mix at times, it's because she's telling the story from the present and the events in her stories happen in the past. I am aware this isn't a popular choice as it may confuse people, but it's something to mention as you read through. (If there are spelling errors that I overlooked, missing words, or my numbers don't agree for example, feel free to point those out but I don't need it mentioned twice if someone has mentioned it once)

- This is my attempt at a satire or something humourous. My sense of humour may not jive with yours (and the best satire is the the kind that's not recognized as satire, so I hear). Not all satire is lighthearted in nature. The same goes for humour.  If you think it sucks let me know and where I can improve.

- The story (stories) should be safe for PG-13, but I'll make sure to put warnings if certain things are too much (whether you have PTSD or if you find content that's not suitable for your individual teen when the content is safe). Also, these warnings are not part of the narrative. If you read this and then complain about something that doesn't jive well with you (strong language, violence, some drug and alcohol use, partial or implied nudity, I mean who takes a shower in a wetsuit?) you've been warned. Also when dealing with vampires there's bound to be some blood involved. This isn't Sesame Street. 

- If you seen this posted elsewhere other than Wattpad, it should be on my fictionpress account as far as things go (even though I have creative commons listed for this).

- Lastly this is a work of fiction. Even if I do bring in some real elements the universe created is still fictional. Characters may express views that the author doesn't hold. Good guys don't always have to have righteous views. Bad examples exist for everyone to not follow.

Without further ado, onward with the story. Like what you read? Feel free to hit that star. Have something to say? Leave a comment!

It doesn't matter if you're approaching this from reading a story about vampires, a work of humor/satire, or a combination of both.

Enjoy :-)

Season one is complete but will be undergoing some further edits as suggestions come along.
