Description The title I was really going for on this one was 'The Prince of Darkness' Granddaughter.' As I have mentioned before, Melissa is Dracula's great-great-great granddaughter, but I wasn't too sure how one addresses their great-great-great grandfather, so I just settled with 'grandfather.'
The conversation was meant to be in Romanian, and what I wrote on the drawing was obtained using the google translator, so I'm certain there are grammatical errors. What I meant to say (in Romanian) is this:

Melissa: Grandfather, how do I look?
Dracula: As beautiful as your mother did.

This scene was meant to depict an anxious Melissa primping in preparation to be wed to the Son of the Demon King. A proud Prince of Darkness decides to pay a visit to his great-great-great granddaughter to calm her down and reassure her that she looks beautiful. Melissa and Dracula must have reconciled at some point before the wedding; prior to the wedding, those two didn't quite see eye-to-eye with one another.

If anybody out there speaks Romanian, please feel free to send me the correct translation. Thank you kindly in advance.

There was a whole dialog between these two during this scene; this is how the conversation was supposed to go:

-Melissa: *anxious groaning, fixing the geisha crown*
Hrrrr! I hope I got it right.

(Dracula walks into the room, admiring)

-Melissa: *gasps* Grandfather! You made it!

-Dracula: I wouldn't miss my granddaughter's wedding for anything; not even for my brides.

-Melissa: *hugs Dracula* I'm so glad you could be here.

-Dracula: You seem anxious, child.

-Melissa: I picked out the dress, but I'm not sure if I'm pulling it off right. *anxious groan* Grandfather, how do I look?

-Dracula: *lightly grabbing Melissa's chin* As beautiful as your mother did.

-Melissa: *unsatisfied* No, really! How do I look?

-Dracula: Méhfű! You're worrying about nothing! You look stunning. Your groom cannot resist.

-Melissa: *excited bouncing, squealing* Really?

-Dracula: Da.

-Melissa: *sated smile*

-Dracula: Although I do have to question your selection of dress...

-Melissa: Grandfather, the reason I chose this is because your future son-in-law is Nihonjin. You do know what a kimono is, right?

-Dracula: I KNOW what a kimono is; I've been to the orient 72 times already. I was hoping for something more...Romanian.

-Melissa: But it was MY decision to wear a kimono for this occasion.

-Dracula: And, of all colors...why violet?

-Melissa: But I like violet.

-Dracula: There were plenty of other colors to choose from...

-Melissa: I LIKE violet.

-Dracula: I'm only saying...

-Melissa: *raises hand, as if pausing Dracula's sentence* Grandfather, you're referring to the flag of the Oda?

-Dracula: *stands erect, raising eyebrow* You are most perceptive, my child.

-Melissa: Grandfather, I know you hate Koji...

-Dracula: I don't hate...Koji; I don't hate him. But there is something about him that irritates me.

-Melissa: What is it about him that you can't stand?

-Dracula: *hesitates*

-Melissa: Wait. You're not angry at Koji simply because of who he is, but what he is. You're angry at him because he is the son of Nobunaga.

-Dracula: *low growl*

-Melissa: You're actually more angry at Nobunaga than Koji; you're just taking it out on him simply because of the association.

-Dracula: *hesitant* Yes.

-Melissa: Grandfather, whatever past dealings you had with Nobunaga, you're going to have to get it past you. Whatever happened in the past, it is exactly that: in the past. Let it go, grandfather.

-Dracula: *makes eye contact, warm smile* You're right, Méhfű. It is exactly that, in the past.

-Melissa: You do know that Nobunaga will be here tonight?

-Dracula: Ugh, don't remind me.

-Melissa: Just try to get along with him, just for this one night. Ok?

-Dracula: I will try, princess. But only because it was you who asked me; because I cannot resist nor say no to these beautiful green eyes. They hold the most influence over me.

-Melissa: 'Ha-ha' grandfather.

-Dracula: *pausing*
Yes, well, in any case, I must be going now; let you finish your dress.

-Melissa: Yes!

-Dracula: *hugs Melissa* I am proud of you. You are as beautiful as a violet and much wiser than I am.

-Melissa: Aww, thanks, grandfather.

-Dracula: Noroc.

-Melissa: Thank you.

-Dracula: *walking out*
Oh look, speak of the devil. The Demon King is within sights. I suppose I'll have a few words with him.

-Melissa: Be nice!

-Dracula: *turns to look at Melissa one last time* I will, princess. *walks out to address Nobunaga*

-Melissa: *turns to look at the mirror* Wow, grandfather had a whole conversation in front of a mirror, and he failed to notice it. I guess things are looking up now.

If I didn't know any better that Dracula reminds me of Ra's Al Ghul from Batman.

It's a combination of Ra's al Ghul and Dracula from Monster Force.

Thanks.
I tried my best with what the google translator could do with dialog translated into Romanian. I would love it if someone who really did speak Romanian evaluate the quote (and it wouldn't hurt if he/she could translate the entire dialog).
