Well, the vampires we're dealing with are a little less difficult to kill than the standard. Only things they have from the stereotypical vampire ideal is being weakened by sunlight and having to drink blood. Conventional weaponry will still kill them and nothing really makes it easier besides sunlight.

-Herbert shakes his head in mock disappointment.-
Herbert: See? The moment the stars get their first big break, their fame goes to their heads. Think they can start walking all over the people that got them there in the first place. This is why I'm never going into showbiz.
-He then leans back further to the point where he's at risk of toppling backwards.-
Herbert: And I'll never join you, you dark seductress!
If you're worried about infection, vampirism is treated as a disease, you start off with a mild case that can be cured with one of the plentiful shrines or cure disease tinctures. It only develops into full-blown vampirism if you go without treatment for three days.

-Crewe's shield provides just enough push provides just enough force to send Herbert's chair slowly toppling backwards, sending him crashing to the ground with a cacophony of noise. Every head in the restaurant turns to look at them. After a moment, Herbert bursts out laughing.-
Herbert: I think we might have made a bit of a scene.

Deziree: Yeah. That would be... awkward.
Cafe Kizuna
Dune: Huh. Might be worth a try... But still, at least there's some room for error on the "He Who Fights Monsters" front.
One confusing chase montage later, deep in an alley
You! (stops in front of the robber, panting) Just - okay, hold on - (wheezes)
???: -cocks her Remoraids- The hell are you? What do you want with me? I'm not in Flare anymore, I've given that up!
You have my Pokemon. Just want her back.
???: -nonplussed- ...I didn't steal anyone's Pokemon.
You did. My Tentacool. Lo saw you with her, she has great eyesight. -points to Lo behind the robber, perched on a neon sign-
???: N-no way! I found it in a restaurant. Nobody was claiming it; it didn't say it had a trainer.
She... -trails off, confused-
Lo: -stares expectantly at Channah-
???: You're mistaking my Pokemon for yours. 'm not handing over my partner just because you're upset and stereotyping.
What?
Lo: -frustrated, looks about to snap-
???: I'm a thief! Note the clothes! You people think every thief has stolen a Pokemon at some point! Like we're all Team Whatever.
Dolabella: <Yeah, it's more like two or three, right?>
Just lemme see her, come on. Then we can figure out if it really is her. I promise I won't -
???: Hell no. (turns and starts running, then stops) Oh, yeah - Your outfit's fugly. (fires the Remoraids over her shoulder at Channah, then hightails it again)
Channah was frozen solid!
Lo: <I'd like to follow, but we should find help first.>
Dolabella: -looks at frozen!Channah's weird posture- <Pffffft>
-they leave the alley-
Restaurant Le Wow
-Crewe laughs as well, leaning back in her chair-
Totally worth it for a good Star Wars reference, don't you think? Though...
-she taps her chin-
I suppose if it was a proper reference, Titan would've swooped in and shoved me off my chair or something. Oh, well.
Victory! Honor! Destiny! Mutton!

Robin: ...I lost. Again.
Gurdurr: -cocky shrug-
Robin: Alright, next we're playing Old Maid.
