July 12, 2023 | Amnesiac Sebastian's diary

  I’m accustomed to being mistaken for gay, but this time I think Nathaniel may have had a point. I’m attracted enough to women. I have no problem sleeping with them. But I don’t think I’d want a long-term relationship with one. It’s not just because I’ve loved Duckie my whole life. Yes, I’d do anything for him. I’m basically his Paula. But now that he’s unavailable, I’ve noticed I’m drawn to other men, strong and powerful, who can soothe me and take care of me.

I’ve found I don’t really care for the club scene. I look like a twink, so I can flirt with pretty much anyone and get away with it, but I noticed I get too attached after one-night stands.

I don’t know what to make of Lucifer and Xander. Luci’s been stalking me since I was 17. I’m flattered, but I’m not sure what he sees in me. He’s attracted to pretty blondes, but he’s a nightclub owner; he’s surrounded by them. He’s been unfailingly kind to me, but maybe that’s part of a contract I don’t remember making.

Xander is an unknown quantity. He’s indicated that we were close. I want to believe that. Nate says I slept with him a couple times. One of the girls says I’m “of course” his type.

But there’s something, deep in my bones, that feels like a mixture of dread and doubt. He was the first person I saw when I woke up. He was worried about me. But….

He seems frustrated that I don’t remember him. Duck says it’s probably better that I don’t. What does he mean? Duckie’s always been honest with me, but he’s also optimistic to the point of naïveté. If he says it’s better that I don’t remember the vampire I’m bonded to, something must have happened that shook even Duckie’s tendency to extend the benefit of the doubt.

I haven’t done any digging. I don’t want to know. Xander seems nice enough. Maze says he’s “real nice,” and she seems to mean it, so… why doesn’t Duckie think so?

This other vampire, Marius, seems interested in me. I shot him down since I’m apparently bonded to Xander, and Marius isn’t really my type anyway. He still flirts with me, but maybe he’s like that with everyone. And then there’s the cute redhead I keep running into at my favorite diner, but… should I even be noticing other vampires like that? I know that for ten years, maybe more, I only had eyes for my Duck.

Can I trust Luci or Xander? I don’t want to know what’s in the decade-plus I lost, but I also don’t want to set myself up for heartbreak. I haven’t admitted it to anyone, but learning Duckie and I got married to different people was shocking and upsetting.

January 7, 2023 | [ROOMMATES] – Désmoda x Harald [WIP]

  Désmoda had been living a comfortable life—well, comfortable for her. She had a rather nice roof over her head and she could  get to the market if she wanted  to ride in the carriage. But she also had a few people she could ask to do so for her… for a sufficiently-inclusive definition of “ask”. Yes, she’d released the last poor bastard she’d indentured from her cellar, but not without taking some insurance that, should she request a favor or two, they’d not feel in a position to turn her down. And now that her cellar was housing only empty wine casks at the moment, she found herself in need of someone to share her home. She’d never admit it, of course, but she did get terribly lonely from time to time. Maybe there was a more appropriate way to meet men than entrapping, torturing, and blackmailing them… but how would she know? Her mother had wanted to raise a lady and she’d wanted to spite her mother, so away she’d run when she was 16, taking some of her dowry with her b...

September 17, 2022 | Nate x Royce – First Meeting

 Nate to Royce: "Didn't know anyone else was in here."   Shit! That fucking door! He really needed to change the damn locks sometime soon because this was getting annoying. Luckily though he'd merely been checking his new hardware, that had gotten infected now twice. Dropping his shirt and tossing the bloodied gauze into the trash he shot a glare towards Nathaniel. "Yeah well.... Someone was in here. Move." He half growled to the other male who was currently in the doorway of the bathroom..   "That looks nasty. Do you need any help?" Nate asked. He wasn't exactly accustomed to helping other people, but it was considered polite to ask, regardless of how rude this guy was being.   "You a fuckin ripperdoc now to? Or a doctor even?" Royce snarked rather immediately as he glanced over his shoulder long enough to glance at Nathaniel then moved to kick a rolling stool that sat at the back of the massive garage over closed to a rather tall lo...

April 23, 2022 | Serena's diary

   I love that Sigefrid loves cuddling ♥ He's not the type to admit to it, but whenever we sit together, it's like we  have  to be touching. He's also not bothered by me doing my language lessons in his presence. In fact, he loves learning about other cultures as much as I do. So cuddling in bed with him and using Duolingo together is a pretty perfect start to our day... after the sex, of course ♥ Sometimes he automatically translates my lessons out loud, from memory, so we're brushing up on languages together. That will help with expanding our international syndicate.
