Quote #7

"We can't leave the poor guy here, Nina. He could choke on his own vomit or something. […] And what if the McKinnons come back? They'll kill him for sure."

"But he'd be in my house…" I said feebly, frightened at the thought of a domestic invasion. (15.113-114)

When Nina and Dave find the unconscious stranger in Father Ramon's house (who turns out to be Nefley), they debate what to do with him. Dave wins the argument, and they do bring him back to Nina's house… but she's not too happy about it. Who wants an unconscious stranger in their home, anyway?

Quote #8

And when, after thirty minutes, Casimir finally left the coffee shop, Nefley followed him home. As luck would have it, Casimir even checked his mailbox before disappearing inside—thus revealing his exact address. (16.10)

You'd think, for a centuries-old vampire, that Casimir would've been a little more careful about keeping the location of his home a secret. His lair should be like Batman's cave: protected, impenetrable, creepy in a good way. But instead, Casimir was careless and let Nefley trail him home. Is it any wonder dude wound up dead?

Quote #9

"Irresponsible?" Horace finally spluttered. "Irresponsible?" He put his hands on his hips. "I tell you what's irresponsible," he yelled after Sanford, "and that's bringing a complete stranger into this house!" (17.98)

Is it irresponsible to admit a stranger into your home? How well do you have to know someone to invite them in? On that note, we'll mention that vampires don't seem to need to be invited into someone's home in this world, so, um, be careful.
