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.

October 8, 2024 | Trent as Hannibal's patient

  “How does it make me 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 ? Are you fucking serious right now? This is what I’m paying for from an internationally-renowned psychiatrist?” Trent ranted, pacing the tastefully-furnished office and running a hand through his sleek bronze hair. “My marriage ended before it even began because my fiancée was jealous of my best friend. My other best friend was brainwashed into marrying this guy who’s jealous of 𝘮𝘦 . I had an actual social group for the first time in my life and we went from being a fun group of friends to probably THE most toxic couple-versus-couple, oh and let me just add that most of the people in the couples don’t even 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 each other! Let’s see. Faustus resents that he’s been blackmailed on pain of death to marry his wife. Nathaniel hates how controlling George has become. I loved Rebecca to death, almost literally, but I’ve had to face up to the fact that that girl is a mess, which 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 lead us to Serena’s situation—Sebastian’s situation? I don’t k...

September 28, 2022 | General Serena's Dark Beacon

  While recruiting for the Vylian army, something happened that had never happened before. Everything Serena tried to repress, every unpleasant thought and emotion she'd tried to bury under a layer of hope and forgiveness, bubbled to the surface. Quicker than a blink, the black aura emanating from her deepened and spread, suddenly covering all of the Dark Forest. Her eyes burned from teal to fathomless black, and her angel feather burned a glowing black beneath her dress. It burned, but this time, she didn't scream. She welcomed the burning, and the range of the dark mist doubled. An intricate illusion of black-feathered wings with sharp, bladelike teal tips unfurled, leaving the whole of her spine, especially near her shoulders, burning as if in a continuous fire. The feathers burst away, revealing bat-like wings with teal-tipped claws. They appeared to beat the mist out in greater quantities, deepening the black so that nothing could be seen for miles. The most power she'...

November 17, 2022 | Trent x Daemon – Picking up the Maddocks

  Prompt: My muse is sick and pushes to come with yours on an important mission. What does your muse do when they find out?   Trent: "Damn it, Daemon! Are we going to have to make a pit stop to the emergency department? You're so fucking stubborn!"   "And you're being over dramatic I'm fine!" Daemon replied from where he was leaning against the outside of the hummer, drivers door open having basically scrambled out to vomit up what had been breakfast. Yeah he was probably getting something, he was at this point sweating despite the damn snow, but he hadn't let that stop him from going with Trent. ((Ok so I'll let you half lead this one. Was gonna go for they're actually on there way to Trent's thanksgiving in this or picking someone up from that airport if the travel was reversed? I actually wasn't sure what you were thinking soooo you're turn to fill in that stuff unless you have another random idea))   ((Sure let's go with p...
