PETER AND THE VAMPIRES is a horror/comedy web novel (and a free podcast!)about a normal, 10-year-old kid who moves into a sinister town filled with supernatural horribleness. The series is composed of different "monster of the week" stories - kind of like THE X-FILES crossed with THE SIMPSONS (if Mr. Burns were a ghoul and something terrifying lived in the town dump). "Peter And The Dead Men" is the first story in the collection. A new page is posted every day.

Dill is the sort of friend who gets you killed resisting your attempts to save him. They're lucky this is a story.
Speaking of getting killed, the suspense is killing me.
Peter get your bat! Me and you are having a bat-vention with Dill, Mafia style. The package includes two broken kneecaps and being dragged away while ultimately saving his life. Let's face it, sometimes Dill needs that kind of thing to show him that these boys aren't the ordinary, idiotic, drunken frat boys who beat up on nerds.
These ones are worst and Dill just doesn't seem to get it!
*Gets bat ready.*
I'm afraid Peter overlooked one little detail in Kyle's story - super hearing.
And yes Dill is making things difficult for Peter, but this is unfortunately completely in character for him. HE is the one that stumbles right into the den of the lion despite everyones warning.
I was kind of hoping Peter was just going to leave the house with Dill. They wouldn't get very far though. :\
I like his subtle hints though. Have Mercy Dill!
Oh, and I'm still waiting for Charlie to intervene. Maybe he'll get his power and then go crazy and save everyone?
Charlie strikes me as the geeky, quiet guy that everyone always picks on.
He doesn't fit in with the Frat-rats.
Hopefully he'll get his chance at revenge/redemption by saving the boys.

Haha! No respite for you, I'm afraid...
N7 -
Hahahaha! I think Todd will happily volunteer to join you.

Hmmmmm...
Welllll, I don't know...Dill is also usually the first one to want to run away when he sees real danger. You could call THAT good common sense, right?
Rai -
Hmmmm...
Yeah, I had fun with the hints!
Hmmmm...

Hmmmmm...
I'd say SEE is quite literal in this case. Dill has no qualms about climbing high trees at night, generally be outside at night, look for the swamp monster he has been warned from (all cases that are possibly quite dangerous and were rated right by Peter). Until he is sure that there is a real immediate danger, he follows his curiosity. Only in a few cases he was convinced by Peter of a specific danger, usually only after he recognized the existence of the danger (like the wood, the mannequins or the carnival).
