They seemed scattered, disoriented. Certainly done with mocking his ability to bring visitors of his own to their abode. Was it that the vampiress in their midst made them as uneasy as he? The doctor tried to reason it out as he walked to intercept her, decided he didn't know why that would be. Something else, then. What kinds of things caused a ghost alarm?
He stopped himself from following that question down a path that would steal his focus from the room around him. He needed his wits in the present moment, rather than rushing toward a book to research answers. Dahlia looked coldly regal as always; Alrec really wasn't sure why he'd decided to brave her path. Because she'd definitely heard the commotion and was heading right for the music room. He was careful to stand in a different line of sight. A ploy to try to redirect her attention. "Good evening, milady!" the doctor greeted. All at once, his mind seemed to overthink the words, as right on their heels came a bemused: "Morning? Evening? Evening."
So much for wits. He blamed the lack of sleep and a rather long day to boot, but really. Ghosts were his forte. A particular field of study that he felt vastly more comfortable with than standing in front of a vampire. Ghosts, at least the ones he'd met so far, didn't drink blood. Not that Alrec wasn't quite, quite comfortable in the knowledge that the rest of the supernatural world was not mere legend. The rules, though, he hadn't studied near enough of them to gather information on all the nuances of the peoples that typically strode through the shadows of Valesport.
He heard voices coming from the music room. In an effort to keep her attention, he strode closer. "There was another tour today. It went..." He couldn't really say 'well', now, could he? "It was boring. I'd like to spice them up."
The voices pitched a little louder, and if he, a mere human, could hear them murmured, Lady Dahlia could probably hear them far better. Alrec tugged at his hair, then gestured broadly toward the opposite side of the manor. "What do you think of cobwebs?" he asked. "Over there."
Away from the music room.
"Just a section of our home, a little more spooky for visitors to get a good...feeling...for..."
He trailed off as a rustling of ghosts began to smoosh themselves around the music room door. To spy on the newcomers? To annoy them? They weren't quiet about it, either. And a handful of them had pulsed their energy strongly enough Alrec's curse let him begin to see hazy outlines. "You must be joking."
"We have guests," he said with a roll of blue-gray eyes toward the music room door. "I don't suppose they're yours?" As soon as he asked the question, Alrec's brain hopped forward again. Why would they be hers? Were they more vampires? Had she risen to order...delivery? Was that even a thing? Curiosity yanked on his tongue. "Are there places you just ring up for a midnight snack?"

Dreams come in a size too big so we can grow into them.
