[A CAR APPROACHES]
ALFIE
Ah, Neige!
[ALFIE HEADS OUTSIDE, THE CAR ENGINE BRIEFLY LOUDER BEFORE IT CUTS OUT. WAVES CRASH NEARBY]
ALFIE
Oh my god. You were so long, I thought you weren’t coming.
NEIGE
There were people outside. I had to wait to carry him out, non?
ALFIE
Yeah, that makes sense. Uh. Where is he?
NEIGE
In the car.
ALFIE
I can’t see— oh my god. Did you put him in the boot?!
NEIGE
It made the most sense.
ALFIE
How?!
NEIGE
He was covered in blood and I did not want to get pulled over!
ALFIE
He has a head injury! He could have— oh my god. I told you to keep him alive!
NEIGE
Oui, and he is breathing and he has a pulse? Pas de problem!
ALFIE
There is a problem, actually! If he’s got brain damage, then—
NEIGE
Ugh, you are such a drag! Just give him some blood and he will be fine.
ALFIE
You are impossible!
NEIGE
Non, just improbable. This would all have been much easier if you had just let me kill him.
ALFIE
No. Now get out of the way.
NEIGE
Ugh, you are no fun!
Not Quite Dead is back, with spin-off series Snow Blood. Set years after the original story, Snow Blood follows Alfie and Neige as they attempt to start to build a better life for themselves and vampires everywhere. One problem; none of the other vampires want to help, and there is this guy who keeps calling, over and over, insisting Alfie comes to meet him... Snow Blood is crowdfunding on Kickstarter from 7th April to 8th May, 2026 and will air in October 2026.
