The Moonlight Lovers characters in Pokémon :
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
Here's a headcanon that I was asked for but I've lost the request. I haven't played Pokémon for years. The last pokémon I played was pokémon Moon. But I hope you enjoy it.
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
Vladimir :
If Vladimir were a trainer Pokémon, he wouldn't really leave his house. It looks dangerous outside, and he could be attacked by a pokémon. He would stay safe in his little manor, away from the city with his roommates whom he liked to keep him company. Why go out anyway? Beliath and Ethan fetch him whatever he needs in town, Raphael and Ivan keep him company and Aaron is never far away. Plus, he's got his pokémons with him. He's never alone. In fact, his pokémons functioned as emotional support animals as a result, he rarely leaves them and he is even less likely to leave the manor without them.
Vladimir mainly owns grass-type pokémons, which help him look after his garden. He's owned most of his pokémons since they were little.
He's not a great pokémon collector, in fact, his pokédex is almost empty and apart from the six that live with him and those of his flatmates, he doesn't know many… His pokémons have the widest variety of characters. He's never really worried about that, and after all, he's accepted Ethan into his manor, even though he's got a horrible temper…
Leavanny (Bug/Grass): This was the first pokémon he ever had, when it was just a tiny Sewaddle. He always goes out with Leavanny if he has to go into town on his own. She's his favourite, both because he finds her very pretty and because she defends him so well.
Lilligant (Grass): He finds her adorable, of course, all her pokémons are adorable (much more so than Aaron's, in any case) but Liligant is really beautiful, he looks after her a lot and it's quite common to see her with Vladimir in the garden.
Leafeon (Grass): One day Aaron brought back a whole litter of little Eevees, their parents nowhere to be found, so Aaron gave them all one. Of course, Vladimir's evolved into a Leafeon. Hanging out so often in the garden with Vladimir, it couldn't have been any other way. It's the only pokémon that's allowed to sleep with Vladimir. It sticks to Vladimir's back while he sleeps and Vladimir has far fewer nightmares thanks to its presence.
Ribombee (Bug/Fairy): He got this pokémon when it was just a tiny Cutiefly. At the time, the pokémon hid under his hair at the slightest sign of danger. It's still doing it now that he's evolved, but because he's taller, he messes up Vladimir's hair a lot and isn't so well hidden any more. It doesn't matter, Vladimir still adores him just as much and gives him everything.
Florges (Fairy): He discovered Florges when she was just a tiny Flabébé among the flowers in his garden. Naturally, Vladimir took an instant liking to her. Now that she's a beautiful Florges, he's very happy to have her help look after and protect his garden.
Yamask (Ghost): Yamask isn't normally one of the pokémon he would catch, but the sad look on this pokémon's face made him very sad, especially as it was wandering alone in a graveyard. So he caught it and now it lives in the manor house and scares off unwanted visitors. Vladimir takes very good care of him and makes sure that he is never alone and sad again.
Béliath :
If Beliath were a Pokémon trainer, he'd always be in town. He probably wouldn't have the ambition to become the best Pokémon trainer, but he'd often be hanging around big cities, meeting other trainers and showing off his pretty pokémon. Mind you, he wouldn't come to do battle, no, he's just there so that you'll recognise that his pokémon are the most beautiful. Fights are fun for five minutes, but then you get sweaty, the pokémon are injured and their hair is all dishevelled, and you have to go home to give them a bath - he can't do that all the time.
He's particularly fond of pretty pokémon who take care with their appearance and with whom he could parade around town without the slightest problem. The other members of the manor find this a little exaggerated, perhaps he could favour power over beauty from time to time? But, no. That's not one of Beliath's ambitions.
He doesn't have a great knowledge of the pokédex, he knows the pokémons he finds beautiful, as well as those of his friends, but the others he doesn't study and Like Vladimir, his pokémons don't have any particular character traits, so he doesn't pay much attention to that. However, all his pokémons are spoilt rotten. After all, what could be too expensive or too rare for such magnificent creatures?
Cinccino (Normal): This was the first pokémon he ever had, a gift from his sister. He spends most of his time with it, and if he had to go out with just one pokémon, it would be her. Cinccino follows him everywhere and he hasn't been separated from her once since he was a child.
Lopunny (Normal): He caught Lopunny when he was just a Buneary hiding in Vladimir's garden. He couldn't resist her adorable little face. Buneary eventually developed into a Lopunny thanks to all the care he received.
Milotic (Water): He caught him when he was just a Feebas. He had to work hard to get a magnificent Milotic, but he's very proud of him. He shows it off to everyone he meets in town.
Sylveon (Fairy): It was no surprise to anyone at the manor when his little Eevee became a pretty Sylveon. At the time, it was all he could talk about, so much so that the others almost thought they were going crazy listening to him boasting about his pokémon.
Brionne (Water): He caught Brionne when she was just a young Popplio. He loves watching her dance and sing, and her antics amuse Vladimir and Raphaël. He's only too happy to have a pokémon who can put a smile on his friends' faces.
Spritzee (Fairy): Of course he had to catch Spritzee, she gives off a wonderful scent and isn't she downright cute when she moves around? She's the latest addition to his pokémon team, he adores her and often trains her in the hope that she'll soon evolve into a wonderful Aromatisse.
Ivan :
If Ivan were a Pokémon trainer, he'd be a young trainer who's just left home and… completely lost. He doesn't really know what he wants to do; becoming the best Pokémon trainer seems to be everyone's goal, but… is it his? He doesn't know if he wants to send his pokémon into battle, it sounds mean when you put it like that and he doesn't want to be mean to his pokémon… He likes his quiet life at the manor, of course, sometimes he'd like a bit more adventure, but to go on an adventure, you have to get away from the manor and… it doesn't seem like a good idea at the moment.
His pokémons are all still very young. He hasn't had them long and he's just learning how to train them with Aaron. He still has a lot of trouble understanding all the mechanics of combat, and everything he needs to know about types and specialities seems horribly complicated. He much prefers to play in the garden or the forest with his pokémons rather than trying to train them.
He has a pretty good knowledge of the pokédex, mainly because he listens a lot to the stories Aaron tells him about the adventures he had before coming to live in the manor with Vladimir.
Eevee (Normal): This is his first pokémon and the only one in the litter not to have evolved yet. Admittedly, Ivan isn't the most motivated when it comes to training. For him, Eevee is still just a little baby and he'd hate himself terribly if anything bad happened to him.
Jangmo-o (Dragon): This is another gift from Aaron. Ivan loves him, Vladimir and Raphaël a little less, because this little pokémon is very noisy. Ivan is trying to teach him to make his scales rattle in time with the music.
Igglybuff (Normal/Fairy): It's a gift from Raphaël this time. Ivan loves to hug him whenever he feels sad, and he's made it his mission to teach him to sing. Maybe his pokémon won't be the best in battle, but does it really matter? His Igglybuff only seems interested in singing and he can't see himself forcing it to do something it doesn't like.
Vulpix (Fire) (Shiny): This was the first pokémon he caught on his own and it's also a Shiny pokémon. He had no idea until he brought it back to the manor and his housemates told him.
Pichu (Electric): He's stopped counting the number of electric shocks he's taken because of this pokémon, but it's still one of his favourites. He takes it with him wherever he goes, usually letting it climb on his shoulders.
Tinkatink (Fairy/Steel): She's the latest addition to his team. He finds her adorable and can't help thinking that she looks like a little baby with her rattle. He spends a lot of time bringing her bits of scrap metal to make her happy.
Aaron :
If Aaron were a pokémon trainer, his aim would simply be to protect his manor and his friends. In fact, that's why he trains his pokémon. He never catches his pokémon with a pokéball, in fact he hates it. He finds the idea horribly cruel. There was a time when Aaron was the best trainer in the world, but he stopped everything to go and live a more peaceful life. Sometimes trainers still come to the manor to challenge him, he usually accepts, as long as he doesn't damage Vladimir's garden.
He adopted each of these pokémons when they were just tiny little pokémons. He can't help it, if his housemates didn't stop him, he'd collect every pokémon he could find and take them to the safety of the manor. In fact, it's partly because of him that there are so many young pokémon near the manor, they know they're safe near the human and his Machamp.
Aaron often goes out into the forest to train with his pokémons and to allow them to do a bit more damage than they're allowed to do in the manor. His pokémons are mainly Hardi, Brave and Assured except Riolu, Riolu is sassy, but he's the youngest so he has all the rights.
Machamp (Fighting) : He caught this pokémon when it was just a tiny Machop. It's the pokémon he trusts most, as he uses it to protect the manor when he's away.
Mightyena (Dark): He found Mightyena when she was just a tiny, injured Poochyena. He nursed her back to health and she has lived in the manor with him ever since.
Armarouge (Fire/Psy): If he can't go out on the town with Vladimir, Raphaël or Ivan, he always asks Armarouge to accompany them. He knows that his friends won't risk anything with him and he's very proud to have such a strong, loyal pokémon.
Flareon (Fire): One night when he was walking in the woods to train his pokémons, he came face to face with a litter of Eevee. The parents were nowhere to be found and the pups seemed to be starving and sicking, so he took them home and gave one to each of them. His became a magnificent Flareon, but of course Vladimir doesn't want to see this pokémon in his garden.
Lycanroc (Rock) (Midnight form): His pokémon literally terrifies Vladimir. This tends to provoke a lot of fighting between him and Vladimir's Leavanny. Living together isn't always easy, but Aaron knows how to convince his pokémon to stay calm.
Riolu (fighting) : He's still just a baby, because it's not been long since Aaron found him. Is he his favourite little one? He won't answer the question. Of course he doesn't have a favourite, not at all, Riri is just adorable… (He's totally spoilt rotten and is probably the most temperamental pokémon in the manor).
Raphaël :
If Raphaël were a pokémon trainer, he would probably live at the manor with Vladimir but would often go out into town to meet other trainers, fight them and have fun. He's not a great pokémon trainer, he likes fighting for fun, but he's not particularly interested in being the best. His pokémons function as emotional support animals for him, especially his Togekiss, which he can't keep his hands off.
His pokémon types are mainly Fairy and Psy. Even though he loves a good fight, he's very protective of his pokémon. Listen, if you hurt his pokémon, he's more than willing to challenge you to a duel, a real sword duel between trainers with no pokémon to help you. These pokémon aren't the only ones who know how to fight, after all.
He doesn't know why, but he only attracts pokémon that are Jolly, Naive, Pressed or Shy. Aaron told him it was because he always gave off a sweet scent, but he doesn't think there's any connection.
Togekiss (Fairy/Flying): This was his very first pokémon. He got it when he was just a little Togepi. Raphaël loves it and takes it everywhere with him. He couldn't live without him anyway, and gets very anxious when he's not with him.
Houndstone (Ghost): Of course, no one at the manor is exactly reassured to see Raphaël befriending a pokémon that can suck the life energy out of its trainer. But Raphaël seems so happy with his pokémon that no one dares force him to part with it. What's more, Houndstone takes great care of Raphaël and always protects him.
Indeedee female (Normal/Psychic): This pokémon never leaves Raphaël's side. She's always with him, no matter what, and it will be very difficult to defeat her and force her to move away from her trainer.
Espeon (Psychic): Ethan was certain that the Eevee Aaron gave Raphael would become an Espeon, and he was not mistaken. Most of the time, he walks right next to Raphaël with Houdstone to guide him around the city and prevent him from tripping and hurting himself.
Swirlix (Fairy): One day Raphaël simply came home with this pokémon. No one at the manor was surprised, he looks like candyfloss, he smells like candyfloss and like Raphaël he has a passion for sweets, the only problem is that spending on sweets has doubled since he arrived.
Mimikyu (Fairy/Ghost): This is the most recent pokémon in his team. He met him in an old abandoned manor house and couldn't bring himself to leave him there, sad and alone. So he took him home to look after him. It's lucky for Mimikyu because he couldn't have found a kinder trainer. Raphaël spends an inordinate amount of time telling him what a beautiful and adorable pokémon he is.
Ethan :
If Ethan were a pokémon trainer, he'd be a doctor in a pokémon center. No, he doesn't want to be here, yes, you're boring him with your irresponsible trainer problems. Of course he'll treat your pokémons, he has no choice now that you've brought them to him. He's not a pleasant doctor, in his defense, he meets irresponsible trainers every day who hurt the adorable pokémons they swear they adore. He's got a lot to be angry about.
His pokémon are sassy or naughty... there's really nothing he can do about it. he only catches pokémon like that and it's not even on purpose. Vladimir keeps telling him it's because they're so alike and… he'd almost take it the wrong way if it weren't a bit true.
He sleeps with his pokémons around him, even if he denies it. He feels much safer with them close to him when he's asleep, and with good reason, after all: who would dare attack a trainer sleeping in the middle of his faithful pokémons?
Reuniclus (Psychic): This was his first pokémon, a gift from his parents. At the time, his pokémon was just a little Solosis, but he was already taking it everywhere with him (he used to hide it in his schoolbag when he went to school). Today, his pokémon has evolved, but it still never leaves his side.
Alakazam (Psychic): This was the second pokémon he caught at the start, it was just a little Abra, but he evolved it and it became a powerful Alakazam.
Indeedee male (Psychic/Normal): He always goes to work with Indeedee, who is a very efficient pokémon and a great help when he has to look after pokémons. What's more, he can ask her to look after the other members of the manor for him, which always reassures him.
Phantump (Ghost/Grass): He really wishes he hadn't become attached to Phantump, but he feels so guilty that he couldn't part with him even if his life depended on it.
Glaceon (Ice) : He didn't want little Eevee at first, but Aaron dropped him in his arms without giving him a choice. Of course, he's taken care of her and yes, he likes her, he can't deny it Glaceon is adorable.
Cubchoo (Ice): Initially, this was an injured wild pokémon that had been taken to his pokémon centre. He hadn't planned to keep him, but he needed constant care, so he took him to the manor to be able to look after him more easily. He keeps saying he's going to free him one day, but… he's made a place for him in his room and Cubchoo even sleeps with him, so… that's not likely to happen one day.
Neil :
He's the best trainer. Look, he can't help it, it wasn't even his basic aim, but his opponents were all… lousy, horribly lousy. He keeps letting new trainers challenge him, but he always wins. It's almost boring for him, sometimes he'd like a real challenge.
He's got two legendary pokémons and all the others are chromatic pokémons. Does he intend to get all the pokémons in the pokédex in shiny version and all the legendary ones? Yes, of course, he's not here for fun. He needs to show the world that you should fear him.
He knows the pokédex by heart, as well as all the techniques and abilities of the pokémons. He's a veritable encyclopaedia on the subject. He doesn't seem very friendly though, even with his pokémons, but that's just an appearance he gives himself. When he's alone with them he's much more affectionate, after all if they're part of his team it's because he loves and respects them a little.
Zoroark (Dark): This was the first pokémon he got, a gift from his mother, it was just a little Zorua at the time. He lived alone with it for a long time and is therefore very close to his pokémon. It's the only one in his team that isn't a shiny or a legendary. He wouldn't part with it for the world.
Umbreon (Dark) (Chromatic): He adopted him when he was just a little Eevee. He'd be lying if he said it wasn't his adorable little face that won him over. His Eevee quickly evolved into an Umbreon, and like his Zoroark, he's attached to it. This pokémon always walks beside him with a gait as proud and arrogant as its trainer.
Tyrantrum (Dragon) (Shiny): The power this pokémon exudes makes it proud. Admittedly, it's a bit destructive and it's pretty hard to get around town with it, but people are quickly frightened by its appearance and that's all that matters.
Ceruledge (Fire/Ghost) (Chromatic): Not his most impressive pokémon, but as with Umbreon and Zoroark he's very attached to it.
Xerneas (Fairy) (Legendary): This is the first legendary pokémon he's managed to catch, and he's very proud of it, often going out on the town just to parade it around. Given its size, it tends to create chaos around him, but Neil doesn't really care.
Giratina (Ghost/Dragon) (Legendary): He had a lot of trouble finding and catching it. He loves his scary appearance - he loves arriving somewhere with his pokémon right behind him and seeing people's faces slowly become terrified.
Léandra :
She doesn't want to be the best trainer, she just wants to have fun. Fighting is of course fun and she never hesitates to accept it, but she would much rather party and go to parties than spend an entire evening fighting other people.
Like her little brother, Léandra is particularly fond of beauty in her pokémons, so she likes to be able to strut her stuff with them while winning battles. But she especially enjoys helping them win beauty contests.
She's not looking for a particular type of pokémon or character, but her pokémon can all learn the Charm move.
Gardevoir (Psychic/fairy): This was the first pokémon she ever got, a little Ralts at the time. In fact, she wasn't really trying to catch pokémons at the time, just the young pokémon followed her around a bit and she finally decided to keep it with her. She looked after him a lot and he's now a powerful Gardevoir, and what she enjoys most is being able to send him to check on her little brother discreetly.
Tsareena (Grass): This is the second pokémon she's had and the first she caught on her own. She never leaves her team. It started out as a tiny Bounsweet and maybe she caught it because she had the same adorable smile as her little brother. Little by little, she evolved into a beautiful Tsareena.
Gothitelle (Psychic): She thinks she's a perfect match for her little Tsareena. These two pokémons have such an arrogant look in their eyes. In fact, she got them at the same time. She loved watching them play together when she hadn't yet evolved them. Now she almost always travels with these two pokémons beside her.
Aromatisse (Fairy): She caught it after learning that it could give off a very bewitching scent.
Vaporeon (Water) (Shiny): She didn't really expect to fall for this little pokémon, but she realised she absolutely had to have one after seeing her brother's adorable Eevee. Hers has become a Vaporeon, so she might have preferred a Sylveon like her brother, but she consoles herself by saying that at least hers is a Shiny.
Diancie (Rock/Fairy): Diancie is the youngest of her group. She had a lot of trouble getting her, but after several years she finally succeeded. She takes very good care of it, and it has quickly become her favourite.
Farah :
If Farah was a pokémon trainer, her life wouldn't change much. She would roam the forest with a group of friends, living as close as possible to wild pokémon and studying them. Becoming the best trainer wouldn't be her goal at all, but she would have fun challenging the poor innocent trainers who had only planned to go for a walk in the forest.
She knows the pokédex by heart, and even the rarest pokémons hold no secrets for her. She could spend hours telling you all about them without getting tired. Like Aaron, she never uses a pokéball to catch her pokémons and keep them with her. She doesn't like this way of doing things at all, and the mere idea of locking one of these pokémons inside a pokéball makes her anxious.
Serperior (Grass): This was the very first pokémon she ever had, a gift from her big brother after they left home. At the time, it was just a little Snivy. It was her brother who taught her how to look after it and train it. Now that her brother is gone, it's the only memory she has of him, and she'll never part with Serperior.
Lycanroc (Rock) (midday form): This was the first pokémon she ever caught on her own. At the time, it was just a tiny Rockruff and she really couldn't resist its adorable little face. She trained him a lot so that he would become powerful and be able to protect her people, and he became a powerful Lycanroc, the pokémon she trusts most to protect her pack.
Thievul (Dark): She caught this pokémon after watching the food supply disappear for several days. At the time it was just a little Nickit, but she managed to catch it and it eventually stayed to live with its pack.
Houndoom (Dark/Fire): One of the pack members' pokémon had a whole litter of Houndour, so of course Farah took one for herself. As every member of the pack has done the same as her, their camp is always very well protected.
Jolteon (Electric): He arrived at the same time as his little Deerling, the two pokémons never leave each other's side and they seem to be very popular with the older pokémons in the pack.
Deerling (Normal/Grass): People always think it's a bit strange to see a tiny Deerling around a Lycanroc, a Houndoom and a Thievul, but it was her Lycanroc that guided her to this little pokémon. It was injured and her parents were nowhere near, so Farah had originally planned to nurse it back to health and then free it, but the little pokémon hasn't left her side since she nursed it back to health.

hi, could you write a headcanon where y/n has complicated homework and asks for help from the boys and girls, thanks in advance
The boys help MC with its homework:
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
Here's the headcanons you asked! Here, I assumed that the MC was at high school. It's a parental relationship with the boys. You can assume that the MC is the biological child of one of the boys or that they simply adopted a child at some point.
I hope you enjoy it! ^^
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
Vladimir :
Vladimir had teachers hired by his parents for him and his brothers and sisters. When it wasn't one of his parents who took time out to give them lessons. So he would have preferred you to have lessons at home, rather than see you go off to see other people. After all, he's worried about you and he's never sure you'll be safe at school.
He often supervises your homework. It's not that he wants to be controlling, it's just his mother-hen side shining through. On more than one occasion, he's helped you with your homework, especially when it's maths - after all, Vladimir wouldn't hesitate to do maths for fun.
Tonight you were in a bind. You don't usually do your homework at the last minute. OK, sometimes you did, but that wasn't the case this time. You'd been working on this maths assignment for over five hours. What's more, it was a graded homework - it wouldn't have been much fun otherwise. Five hours of trying, re-trying, re-re-trying to find the solution to this problem, only to come up with a different result every time. You'd tried contacting your friends for help, but they'd all had different results too. In desperation, you stared at the chandelier hanging from the ceiling for several minutes, as if the answer might have fallen from a candle.
"MC? What are you doing up at this time of night, aren't you going to school tomorrow?
-Normally if…," you mumbled, turning your head slowly towards him.
-And why are you doing your homework at this hour?"
You looked at him silently for several seconds before sighing in the same dramatic tone Raphaël might have used.
"I'm desperate, I'll never make it. It's not a failure, it's a catastrophe. I don't have a choice now, I can't give this back tomorrow, so all I have to do is drown in the swamp or change my name and leave the country.
-For God's sake, don't talk like that, you sound like Raphaël. What can't you do in this homework? It can't be that bad.
-Everything Vava. All of it. I can't do it so well that I'm questioning my own first name. It turns out that my name isn't MC and I've been wrong all along, and maybe the rain isn't rain and the wind isn't wind… I'm not even sure that 2 and 2 make 4 any more… "
Vladimir rolled his eyes when he heard you speak before pulling up a chair to sit next to you.
"Come on, don't talk nonsense and show me that instead."
You handed him the sheet before letting your head fall dramatically back onto the table. Vladimir merely sighed before beginning to read out the instructions. There was a long moment of silence before he spoke.
"That's not this year's program.
-That's what the teacher gave us," you defend yourself immediately, "I'd like to spend my afternoons doing something other than staring at a maths paper. And… how do you know it's not on the syllabus?
-I've read the syllabus.
-Nobody reads the syllabus Vava...
-I just told you I did."
You looked at him again, one eyebrow raised in doubt, before shrugging. Yes, coming from Vladimir it was actually quite logical, of course he would read this year's syllabus.
"But… if it's not on this year's syllabus, I'll never make it! You're not going to leave me with this, are you? You've got to help me, Vava.
-I wouldn't have a problem with that…" replied the vampire.
A big smile appears on your face as you cling to his arm.
"Please help me! I'll never ask you for anything again. I'll be the quietest person in this mansion. I want to go to sleep so badly, I don't want to do maths ever again. Help me, Vava!
-I'll help you, it's OK, don't shout in my ears."
You let out a cry of joy and Vladimir winced in pain, yet he made no comment and simply started doing the calculations. He was fast, very fast, and in just a few minutes your maths exercise was finished and all you had to do was copy it onto a clean sheet of paper.
Béliath :
It was her sister who taught Beliath everything. There isn't really a school in the world of succubi, well… there is one, but only for succubi, incubi and half-demons don't have access to it. So Beliath was quite enthusiastic about the idea of enrolling you in a school. He's always the first to want gossip about your classmates and the only one who really cares.
He never helps you with your homework. It's not that he's not interested, but his level in many subjects is not excellent. For example, he has no knowledge of biology, physics or chemistry, and the only knowledge he has of history is that of the periods in which he lived, and even then he confuses a lot of things.
Tonight, you had gone to bed feeling light-headed and in good spirits at the thought of being able to enjoy your bed, its wonderful blankets and comfortable pillows. Until your conscience jolted you awake, and you scrambled for your school bag full of dread before realising that you hadn't done a maths exercise. It's not that you're not good at maths, or anything, but it's three o'clock in the morning, your mind is foggy with fatigue and you feel like you can't think straight. You look at the paper in despair, you'll never get it right, the instructions seem to be written in another language.
"MC! What are you doing up? It's three in the morning!"
You jumped and almost dropped the mobile phone you were using for light before turning to Beliath.
"You could knock before coming in!
-At three in the morning? When you're supposed to be asleep?
-Yes. And how did you know I wasn't asleep anyway?
-I saw the light under your door. I got worried.
-If someone wanted to murder me they wouldn't take the time to switch the light on first… or they'd be bloody stupid.
-I worried that you weren't feeling well, that you were ill.
-Mm. Yeah, that makes sense.
-So, what are you doing?"
You shook the sheet of paper in reply and Beliath closed the door to crouch on the floor beside you.
"What's this?" the incubus asked before turning the sheet of paper over and over, as if a secret might be lurking inside.
"My maths homework…
-And... why are you doing this homework so late?
-I forgot it! It happens to everyone! I had lots of important stuff to do and lots of other homework too. We're sweltering under homework at the moment, the teachers are trying to make us all burn out. I do so much homework that I even dream about it at night.
-You're exaggerating a bit...
-Please, Bel, help me!
-No. That's your problem. I've already got mine.
-Please, Vava will kill me! I'll be buried under her cyclamen before I can say "phew". I've already completely forgotten about last week's homework. You can't leave me like this."
Beliath sighed, but he sat down next to you again. They were hieroglyphics to him, literally, why were there letters in the middle of numbers and figures?
"Yes…. No… but. Have you seen my math level? Go and ask Vladimir.
-So you really want me dead, do you?" you ask, looking into his eyes with a serious expression.
Beliath looked at you for several seconds before rolling his eyes, no doubt you spent a lot of time with Raphaël to manage to be as dramatic as he was.
"Rah, it's OK. I'll help you… but don't expect it to be a success…"
You would have howled with joy, if you hadn't been afraid of alerting Vladimir. Beliath took your paper before starting work. He was rather slow, but little by little you managed to find the solution, even if it took you a long hour and by the end you felt as if you were constantly on the verge of falling asleep.
Ivan :
Ivan is one of the few members of the manor who actually went to public school. It's not an activity he enjoyed very much and often he would have preferred to be elsewhere. So he doesn't hesitate to cover for you when he knows you've skipped lessons. After all, he always feels sorry for you when you tell him that you still have a lesson with Mrs Delanay.
He sometimes helps you with your homework, quite often in fact. He wasn't particularly attentive in class and rarely did his homework, but that doesn't mean he didn't understand what was going on. He always got better marks in the arts, but art and music were fascinating courses, much more so than physics or chemistry…
You glanced angrily at the sheet of paper in front of you, and if it had been able to see your gaze, no doubt it would have run away to avoid your wrath… unfortunately, it was a sheet of paper, a sheet of paper with an art exercise on it. It wasn't that you weren't gifted in the subject, it was just that you had no inspiration for the subject "something scary" as your teacher had said, but well, you live with six vampires who organise blood-drinking parties in your own home, so your idea of what's scary isn't really the same as your classmates', so you're in danger of going off topic…
A desperate sigh escapes your lips as you let your head fall back against the table.
"Aren't you feeling well MC?"
You flinch as you hear Ivan's voice behind you, the vampire standing in the doorway to the living room, you shrug defeatedly.
"I've got writer's block... but for the painter... I'll never finish this project...
-Don't say that," Ivan consoles you, coming to sit next to me. What do you have to do? I was pretty good at drawing when I was at school, and Pierrick's a good teach.
You handed him the sheet of paper with the instructions on it with a sad look on your face and Ivan read it. Finally, he scratched his head before putting the sheet down again.
"Yeah, I can see the problem… your notion of scary is probably not the same as everyone else's.
-Right! What do I do now?
-We could ask Aaron…
-I have to do a drawing, an art painting, not give nightmares to the teacher and the rest of the class!
-That's true…" mumbled Ivan.
-I'm stuck… I've been at it for hours… I can't come up with any ideas, I'm struggling and yet I'm trying… What's more, thinking about it all the time makes my brain feel like it's slowing down."
Ivan nodded. He understood the problem pretty well. You were both silent for several seconds before he exclaimed.
"Oh, oh, I've got an idea!. Do the Twisted Man from Conjuring.
-The twisted man… Ivan, that's not scary…, you protest. Stopping Beliath's mother from killing us all, that was scary!
-Yes, it's not scary for you, but it could be for others. You could take inspiration from the Slenderman.
-Is the Slenderman scary?" you ask, full of doubt.
-He was very popular when I was at school, everyone told stories about him.
You sigh, it might be a good idea, if you change it enough.
-Anyway, it's not like I've got any other ideas. Let's just try this…"
You looked up reference images on your mobile phone with Ivan's help, and the vampire even went to the library for a moment to look for art books that might help you find inspiration. You stopped for a moment to look at a series of engravings depicting Dances Macabre from medieval times. Ivan made a few sketches with you to try and give you some ideas. At the end of the day, you finally had a drawing that you thought was good enough to give to your teacher.
Ivan :
Aaron never set foot in a school; his mother taught him everything. It was nice of course, but he didn't learn to read and write very well because of it and if his mother hadn't had to do the accounts for her dressmaking job, he probably wouldn't have learned to do maths. The idea of you going to a school was therefore very appealing to him. Like Vladimir, however, he was worried about your safety at school and insisted on visiting it himself. Did he frighten your teachers and classmates? Yes, a bit, but at least nobody bothers you.
He doesn't often help you with your homework. It's not that he doesn't want to, it's just that apart from a few history subjects, poetry and fauna and flora, he knows he doesn't have the necessary knowledge to be useful to you.
This evening you were working on a presentation given by your history teacher. "The Hundred Years' War". You were looking at the paper in front of you with some frustration. You still had a little time to finish the paper, but you wanted to get it perfect. It would, after all, be the last straw to live with vampires and fail your history presentation. You crossed your arms and groaned at your poster. This was the fourth time you'd done it and you still didn't like it. How could you talk about this war in just 10 minutes?
You sighed again, before pulling out a new poster to start all over again.
"MC? You seem annoyed tonight, is something wrong?"
You gasped as you heard Aaron's voice behind you, narrowly missing dropping your pen.
"Aaron! Don't come in like that! You'll give me a heart attack.
-Sorry," laughed the wolf, before walking over and looking at what you're working on. The Hundred Years' War… I fought in that…
-I know, you've already told me…, you turned slowly to your work before sighing again. I can't do it Aaron… I've been doing it over and over again for hours and it never satisfies me.
-You're too hard on yourself. Do you want me to help you?
-You'd help me," you exclaim, turning to Aaron.
-Of course, since I'm offering. Tell me exactly what you have to do."
Your eyes lit up at the news, Aaron is concise and to the point. You don't think you could find anyone better suited than him to help you sum up the Hundred Years' War in ten minutes or so. You explain your subject quickly and the wolf nods.
"Yes, I can see the problem, it's not easy to summarise such a war in such a short time. We'll see what we can do, don't worry. I'd start by giving a brief summary of the context, the main belligerents, then the stakes, maybe a brief aside on one of the battles, if you have time, and finally the consequences of the war.
-That would be about two minutes per subject…
-You don't have to talk about a battle if you think it's too short. The most important thing is the context, what's at stake and the consequences. For the belligerents, you can assume that the rest of your class already knows them."
You nodded before starting to look for an outline for your presentation. Aaron's advice was useful; even though he often underestimates his ability to speak eloquently, the turns of phrase he suggests have the advantage of being both beautiful and precise. Little by little, your presentation is refined, and after two hours of work it's almost entirely finished, and Aaron also seems satisfied. Once you've finished, you practise your presentation and you're right on time.
Raphaël :
He had teachers hired by his parents and learned to paint with his father. He wasn't really an attentive student, at least not when it came to anything that didn't have to do with art. He skipped a lot of lessons to go out and play with his friends and more than once fell asleep during lessons. Like Vladimir, he would have preferred you to have lessons at home, where at least he's sure you're safe. Unlike Vladimir, he totally covers for you if you skip lessons, listen, he used to do the same thing, he's not going to criticise.
Sometimes he helps you with your homework. As long as it's not maths, physics or biology. He's very knowledgeable on most subjects, but he often talks too much. You can't ask him a question without him launching into long explanations that don't really relate to your question in the end.
Tonight, you were revising one last time for your music lesson the next day, or rather for your music exam. You knew the piece by heart, you'd played it many times without the slightest mistake, but last night you couldn't do it any more. You cursed the piano with an angry growl. Why was it so difficult? It was supposed to be simple, but your fingers were getting all tangled up and making a mess of the keys.
Not wanting to admit defeat, you tried again, your fingers glided over the piano keys with a certain degree of habit, but they slipped on the last few notes, and you let out a raging howl as you barely restrained yourself from hitting the poor piano.
"MC, MC, calm down. You're too stressed to play tonight…"
You turned towards Raphaël, who had just entered the large living room.
"My exam is tomorrow, I can't stop until it's perfect," you reply immediately. "I can't present something that's only passable.
-It won't be "just passable", you're playing very well MC. But you've been playing for hours, and anyone in your place would be exhausted. I'm sure that if you take a break to relax a bit and enjoy yourself, you'll be able to do it again.
-But I can't relax at the moment," you protest. I could do it perfectly yesterday!"
At the end of your sentence, you let your head fall back to stare at the ceiling. Raphaël moves a little closer to you as he continues to speak.
"I know how frustrating it can be when you don't get to play what you want to play and I can assure you that a bit of rest can work wonders. I'll make you some hot chocolate if you like and you can tell me what fun you've had this week. When you try again later I'm sure you'll be able to do it.
-I don't have much interesting to say," you mumble wearily.
-I'm sure you're right, there's always something funny going on at your school," Raphaël smiles at you before putting a hand on your shoulder. Didn't you do a play not long ago?
-Oh no, please don't talk about this any more!" you mumble, thinking with your hands on your face.
Raphaël laughs before answering, "I'm going to the kitchen to make some hot chocolate and get some cakes, so why don't you sit down at the table and wait for me.
Raphaël left and after a sigh you decided to get up and go and sit at the table in the living room. He brought you a cup of hot chocolate while you continued to stare at the piano, as well as the little biscuits he had promised you, which were indeed your favourites. You ate them, mumbling mainly about your music lessons, before slowly changing the subject as the discussion progressed. Raphaël asked you questions about what you were doing at school and about your friends. You relaxed little by little until you were smiling again.
When you sat down again to play the piano later that evening, you managed the piece without making a single mistake.
Ethan :
Along with Ivan, Ethan is the only one who went to a state school. He was a very good pupil, without really needing to work. He always had an ability to understand things easily and he took advantage of that a lot, mainly by being inattentive in class and acting like a clown in the classroom. He thought the idea of sending you to high school was a good one, after all, you'd be bored to death if all you had for company were a bunch of boring old vampires. Like Aaron, he's only worried about the problems you might encounter, as long as none of your classmates are bothering you he's not worried.
He doesn't help you with your homework in general, unless you're having trouble with a physics, chemistry or biology assignment, but he does this by complaining (in fact, he's happy to help you, but he still hates the idea of having to do homework, even when it's not his own).
This evening, you were trying to finish a chemistry assignment… trying, because you'd been at it all morning and you'd finally got to the last exercise. You'd almost finished, which was the most important thing, but your eyes were falling out from exhaustion and you couldn't understand anything about the last exercise. It wasn't for want of trying to understand, though. You read and reread and reread the instructions, but nothing made sense any more. It was as if the instructions for the exercise had suddenly been written in a language you didn't understand.
You sighed before letting your head fall back into your arms, the thought of working even just five minutes longer made you want to cry. Why had the teacher given you such a long and complicated exercise! None of the other teachers did that, she was always the only one to make you crumble over exercises, each more complicated than the last. A third sigh escaped your lips. You still had that damned exercise to do.
"You look desperate tonight, is something wrong?"
You gasped before turning to Ethan. He was standing in the doorway looking at you. You couldn't help but sigh again before pointing to all the papers scattered on the table around you.
"I've still got a chemistry exercise to do… and I can't take it any more…
-I can see that," Ethan replies before coming closer. "Come on, show me this exercise. You're going to make a hurricane sighing like that."
You handed him the sheet, too happy to get help to think of protesting. Ethan read the instructions before frowning.
"That's a lot of work for one person," Ethan points out.
-It's because of the teacher," you answer. It's always like that with her… She gives us more homework than all the other teachers in the school put together.
-Can't you tell her that she's giving you too much work?
-If it was as simple as that I wouldn't do it…" you sigh again before slumping back in the chair. I'm fed up… I'm so tired I want to cry… plus I don't understand anything she's asking. I'm going to go crazy if this keeps up…"
Ethan looks at you as you stare exhaustedly at your work on the table. Normally he'd run away, but you look so tired he can't bring himself to do it.
"MC? How long have you been working on all this?" asks the vampire, gesturing towards your homework.
-Since this morning… "
Ethan sighs before sitting down next to you.
"Come on, give it up. I'll do the last exercise for you."
You sit up suddenly, surprised by the announcement, and exclaim.
"What?! What? Really?
-Yes, I really do. I'm not saying this as a joke and I'm only doing it because you look exhausted.
-Thank you Ethan," you sigh in relief before letting your head fall back into your arms. I could never have finished it without you."
The vampire rolls his eyes but starts to do the exercise, while you, without even realising it, have fallen asleep slumped on the table.
Neil :
Neil has always enjoyed learning things. If he'd been liked by his father, he'd probably have had much better teachers, but he had to learn a lot on his own. He wasn't really keen on the idea of you going to a school… do you really want to be around stupid, useless humans on a regular basis? He could have paid teachers to give you lessons at home… But he gave in to your demands. But you can't go to just any school! You have to go to the best private school in the area. After all, you can't just go to anyone.
He'll help you with your homework as soon as you ask, listen, he wants you to become as good as he is and it won't work if he refuses to help you or explain what he knows. What's more, he'd be lying if he said he didn't enjoy teaching - it's really something he enjoys.
This evening you had an essay to do on the subject of 'Thaumaturgic kings', which was no easy task for you or your classmates. You'd been staring at the paper for half an hour without coming up with a plan for your dissertation. A quick search on the internet brought you across some university articles that were far too complicated for your level of understanding. You were at lycée, not university, and understanding all the nuances of these articles was just giving you a headache.
To top it all off, the teacher gave you some sources… in old French… so largely incomprehensible, just trying to decipher the writing made you feel like you were in an Indiana Jones film. You sighed in despair, you were never going to make it, that was a certainty and you couldn't afford to fail, it was out of the question.
"MC? You look sad tonight, is something wrong?"
You turned back to Neil, who was reading on the sofa, and sighed.
"I have to do an essay, but I can't understand the subject… let alone the sources… Why did people write so badly?
-Show me what your problem is. I might be able to help."
You handed Neil the exercise sheet as he came to join you at the table, and he sat down next to you to read it carefully.
"I see… "Thaumaturgic kings" refers to the healing powers granted to the king after his coronation. It's probably a rather complicated subject for someone your age…
-I don't know what to do, the teacher told us to do something simple, but I'm already struggling to understand what's going on and the sources are illegible!"
Neil bent down to pick up the sources you were pointing out before smiling.
"It's true that I've seen better writing… and there are a lot of abbreviations… didn't your teacher transcribe it for you in a more legible way?
-No. He left us with this!
-All right, then. I'll help you then. I'll start by reading the source for you, I think that'll be easier."
You nodded before bending over the text to try to follow. It was complicated, to say the least, and you interrupted Neil several times to try and understand certain abbreviations. Neil explained them to you patiently and little by little you even managed to decipher certain words.
"Wait, wait," you interrupted suddenly. Did you say Jean?
-Yes.
-But wait, Jean, it wasn't written like that before.
-Yes, it was. That's the problem with this kind of text - the spelling wasn't fixed.
-Not fixed, not fixed, there are limits after all, he could have decided on a way of writing it and stuck to it.
Neil laughs at your confusion before showing you another spelling a little further down the text.
"It's written in a different way here".
You sigh, a little disappointed by such unstable spelling, before continuing to listen to Neil.
You work on your essay together for a while longer, gradually understanding the subject better and better, and coming up with a plan for your essay no longer seems insurmountable. You quickly finish the work before going out for a walk in town with Neil.
Léandra :
She went to a sort of school for succubi when she was a child. It wasn't her favourite thing to do and most of the time she just skipped classes. Most things she learned from her mother or other older succubi. She was a bit put off by your idea of wanting to go to a school because… well it's not the most fun place in the world, but she gave in after all, if that's all it takes to please you.
She doesn't often help you with your homework. More often than not, she doesn't really understand it. Her knowledge of many human subjects is rather vague and she doesn't see the point in going into it any further. Occasionally, when she's in a good mood or the subject interests her, she'll come to you and try to help, although this is quite rare, but her help is always appreciated.
This evening you were working on an exercise that your art teacher had given you. You had to work on a painting about Julius Caesar, more precisely the painting : The Assassination of Julius Caesar by Karl Theodor Von Piloty. The painting was rather interesting, but you didn't really know how to talk about it. No matter how hard you looked for information about the painter, you couldn't find any. You sighed as you continued your search.
"Who's that guy?"
You jumped as Léandra appeared behind you, pointing at César on the painting.
An emperor," you reply.
-And… it's normal for him to be assassinated?
-Well, given that is Caesar… yes."
Léandra remains silent for a moment, shaking her head, seemingly deep in thought, then continues.
"It was the Roman emperor who had sex with Cleopatra? Was it?
-Yes, that's it," you answer.
The discussion ends and You continue to look through the books while Léandra stands around you without moving, finally you turning round once more to ask her.
"Do you want anything?
-What should you do with this painting?
-A presentation.
-Sounds boring… can't your teacher teach you to paint instead? That would probably be more fun.
-No… Are you going to stand over my shoulder for much longer? If you've got nothing better to do, you can help me, you know?"
You had proposed the idea without the slightest hope that Léandra would accept, and yet to your astonishment, she sat down at the table next to you before looking at you.
"What do you want me to do?
-Um… I need to gather some information about the painting and the painter to do my presentation… but it's a bit complicated, I can't find much…
-Okay, I'll help you. "
You continued to stare at Leandra as she suddenly started rummaging through the books for you. It was rather unusual, to be honest, and it took you several seconds to manage to concentrate again on the book you were reading before she interrupted you.
In the end, with Léandra's help you found a lot more information than if you'd searched on your own. It didn't take you long to write your talk and set up the power point for the presentation. And once you'd finished everything, Léandra invited you to go out with her into town so that you could finally have some fun.
Farah :
Farah learnt everything she needed to know from her older brother after they left the family. She learned to read and write from him, and he taught her all about flora and fauna and how to look after herself. So when you told her you wanted to go to a high school, she was all for it. But it was a bit complicated, the pack travels a lot and you couldn't travel with them while studying. So she rented you a small flat near the school and visits you every weekend to see how you're doing.
She will help you with your homework whenever she can, but can only do so at weekends. Farah is always happy to do this for you. She is, of course, much better at helping you with subjects such as flora and fauna or history. However, if she doesn't master something in particular, she can always find a member of the pack to help you.
This evening, you sat in your living room with your homework, waiting for Farah to arrive. You were working on an exercise about the beginnings of human agriculture. It wasn't as easy as you had initially hoped, and little by little your mind was getting muddled. You jumped when you heard the front door open and rushed to meet Farah, who was calling you.
"Farah!" you exclaimed with palpable joy. "I thought you'd get here later!
-We walked faster than I expected," smiled the werewolf. How was your week? Have you got a lot of homework today? I thought I'd take you shopping with the pack when you'd finished."
-I've been working for hours on an exercise on the beginnings of human agriculture.
-I see. Do you need any help?
You quickly looked over all the work you still had to do. Of course, you were capable of doing it on your own, but it had been so long since you'd spent time with the pack and Farah that the idea of spending the day on homework instead of having fun depressed you. You nodded.
"Yes, please!"
-All right, I'll help you then. The sooner it's done, the sooner we can go and enjoy ourselves."
Farah followed you into the living room, smiling, and you sat down around the table. As you worked, you told her what you had done during the week.
"Are you having a good time at high school at the moment?
-Yes, we are. We're preparing a play! We haven't decided which one we're going to do yet, but we can choose between : Sleeping Beauty, Little Red Riding Hood and Alice in Wonderland.
-Well, that sounds like fun, I hope you'll let me know when we can come and see it with the pack.
-Oh no, Farah, I'm going to get noticed if you all come."
The she-wolf laughed in amusement at your reaction, before resuming a few seconds later.
-You can ask Willie if you're nervous. He used to perform on stage when he was still human, so he knows how to deal with that sort of thing."
You nodded as you continued your homework, and with Farah's help it only took you an hour to finish it all. You left shortly afterwards to join the pack and go shopping together.

Hi ! Can you do headcanons about Vladimir and how he is/act with mc in the romantic relationship with them (Only if you want to of course :) ) I hope you have a great day/night ! <3 PS: I love to read your headcanons they ere so good ! :D
Vladimir with MC with in the romantic relationship :
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
I'm glad you like my headcanons! ^^
Here's the headcanons you asked! I hope you enjoy it! ^^
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
---------
It's quite complicated for him at the beginning of your relationship. Sometimes he still has a bit of trouble realising that you're really together and that it's not just a dream. Vladimir had long since written off the idea of ever having a partner. So he often needs reassurance that you love him.
He doesn't know how to behave with you at the beginning of the relationship. Can he give you an affectionate nickname? Can he give you a hug? Can he hold your hand? He'll try little things, like brushing his fingers against yours in the library when you're alone to see how you react. If you take his hand in yours, he'll turn as red as a tomato.
He's too embarrassed at first to show you any affection in public. Of course, he wants to hug you and kiss you, but… that wasn't done at all in his day. It's very unsettling to realise that he can be more tactile nowadays. Gradually he's changing that, he still finds it hard to kiss or hug you if someone is likely to see you and laugh, but more often takes your hand in his and sometimes even leans in to kiss your cheek.
He becomes much more tactile when you're alone. He loves to hug you and kiss you, but he loves it even more when you hug him and kiss him. Sometimes he even wishes he could never be forced to leave your embrace.
So he always sleeps snuggled up next to you. It's reassuring in a way, feeling your breathing and your heartbeat calms him down a lot. He feels loved and it's important for him to know that he really matters to someone - he'd never have thought that possible before he met you.
Vladimir likes to write and he writes a lot, even if he doesn't dare show it to you at the beginning of your relationship. Gradually, however, he lets you read some of the things he's written. These are mainly romances and love poems (he writes even more now that he's in a relationship with you).
He's someone who blushes a lot, so when you flirt with him, there's always a lovely flush that quickly settles on his cheeks, before he rushes to hide his face behind his hands or hair.
If you don't know how to waltz, he'll be happy to teach you. He'll be less keen on the idea of you teaching him to dance modern dances, but… if you promise not to tell anyone in the manor about it, he may give in to please you.
If you agree to wear clothes from his era one day, he won't be able to stop blushing. Look, you're gorgeous in it and he feels like he could die of happiness just by seeing you.
He loves spending evenings reading with you in front of the fireplace. Whether you each read a different book or sit next to each other reading the same book is fine with him as long as he can spend time with you.
He also likes to just lie down with you and do nothing in particular. He could spend hours listening to you talk about whatever you want or just enjoying the silence with you.
If he felt more secure about going out in the city, he'd invite you to restaurants more often. Unfortunately, a single outing tends to exhaust him and he needs several days to recover each time - modern cities are really too noisy.
Even if he can't cook very well, he'll be happy to cook with you. Of course, you'll have to supervise everything to make sure you end up with something edible, but he'll have lots of fun.
He loves to hear you laugh, it's a wonderful sound for him and he feels he can never get enough of it.
He never asks you, but he needs to be reassured about his looks. Vladimir doesn't think he's very pretty and all the compliments you give him reassure him enormously.

MC meets the mansion boys after Neil's neutral ending:
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
I had a request on the subject, but it got lost, fortunately it was noted in my word file folder. For this version of the story, the boys (Vladimir and co) didn't settle in MC's parents' manor. MC met Neil on her own and left her parents' manor after Neil left, and she settled with the boys while waiting for him to return.
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
Vladimir :
Vladimir is very suspicious at first. He doesn't understand how you can have such good control over yourself when you claim to have been transformed into a vampire barely a year ago. He remembers his first year of transformation well enough and still feels unstable enough to make it seem impossible. After all, despite being almost 150 years old, he still wants to attack humans when he feels strong emotions.
He knows that Aaron is very suspicious of you and that worries him a bit, to tell you the truth. He doesn't really know how to react when you're with him, seriously, he feels he has less self-control than you do. And yet, despite your impressive abilities, you don't seem to want to do them any harm. That's the only reason he agrees to put you up… and also because you told him you'd be alone if he didn't. He knows that solitude is too much to bear, and if he can help you avoid it, then he will.
Finally, as time goes by, they begin to trust you. You help them a lot around the manor, whether it's with day-to-day tasks such as tending the garden, or more complex tasks such as managing the visitors at the Beliath celebrations in helping them manage Ivan.
What's more, you're quite calm and friendly. He feels safe with you if he thinks it's a bit ridiculous, because you're the one who should feel safe with him. He's the older of the two of you, he's the one who should be protecting you if anything goes wrong.
Finally, he finds it pleasant to spend time with you. You seem to know a lot and you're a curious person. You listen to him when he has things to say and you ask him questions about his garden. In fact, you always seem to be looking for something new to learn and he must admit that he really likes that.
When you tell him that you have been transformed by an ancient vampire, he is both frightened and impressed.
He sometimes asks you questions about your partner. He's quite curious, even if he doesn't want to admit it, and he wonders why he left you alone. He thinks he wouldn't like to be separated from the person he loves. He often tries to cheer you up or make you smile when you seem to miss your partner.
Béliath :
He didn't really know how to react to you at first. You remind him a little of Ethan when he first met him, curious, perceptive, not easily impressed. However, Ethan was a very unstable young vampire, yet older than you are now. You shouldn't be able to control yourself so easily. Beliath is certain of that.
Maybe it's a bit scary… or impressive, he can't make up his mind at the moment and he's mainly relying on Aaron's reaction to know what to do and Aaron… well, Aaron's suspicious of you too. He's still friendly though, it's not his habit to be unpleasant with people he's just met.
He takes you to the Moondance, mostly out of curiosity at first, he's impressed by how easily you resist blood. A human cuts himself with a glass, and you simply raise your head in his direction, intrigued by the smell but without the slightest intention of attacking him.
You also have the same hypnotic abilities as Raphael and for a vampire your age, that's really impressive. He'd never seen anything like it in anyone else. He knows that it normally takes several years to reach such a level, but when he talks to you about it, you tell him that you've learned to do it instinctively.
He's also impressed by your hunting and fighting skills. You make it look as if you've been doing it all your life. And once again, you simply reply that whoever taught you was a very good teacher.
You talk very little about your past and even if he's curious, he doesn't try to broach the subject most of the time. When you tell him that you've been transformed by an Elder, he understands your abilities better. There aren't many Elders alive these days, so you've taken your first steps into vampiric life with one of the best of his kind.
He asks you questions about your partner from time to time, and he's quite perceptive, so it's fairly easy for him to understand that your partner is the ancient vampire who transformed you. However, he has a much harder time understanding why you've split up for the time being, and it's even more incomprehensible to him when you tell him that you're not separated, but that you're simply waiting for him to come back and see you.
Ivan :
Ivan feels really stupid compared to you. You were able to accompany Beliath and Ethan to the Moondance without the slightest difficulty, whereas he always feels on the verge of cracking up when he goes out on the town. In fact, you don't seem to have any difficulties that a young vampire should have and when he asks you how you did it you simply reply that you've had a very good teacher.
He knows that Aaron and Beliath are a little wary of you because of your extraordinary abilities, but that's not what concerns him most. Ivan is jealous.
He thinks it's really unfair. Aaron is also a very good teacher, he's put a lot of effort into helping him become a better vampire and he continues to do so. Yet he still hasn't reached your level even though he was transformed before you. He is a little unpleasant with you at the beginning of your relationship because of his jealousy. He sulks a bit when you're around and often looks for mistakes you might make to reassure himself of his abilities.
He would have liked to meet a young vampire with difficulties like him, not a vampiric prodigy. He's even more jealous when he sees that you have the same hypnotic abilities as Raphael. You seem to be able to do it with disconcerting ease, it's almost as if it's instinctive for you and when he asks you how you learned and you tell him that it really did come to you instinctively… he feels really sad.
He gradually calmed down after being with you every day and when he noticed that you tried to help him several times by giving him advice on hypnotising others or hunting. Your advice is very good indeed, and he feels he's making faster progress with it.
Finally, he's a bit more interested in you and what you were doing before you were transformed. He even finds it quite enjoyable to spend time with you. The others in the manor are all much older than him and because of that he couldn't understand some of the jokes or references he was making. It's fun to finally be able to joke with someone who understands what he's saying.
He really doesn't understand why you're not trying to find your partner, even when you explain that he's asked you for a bit of space. It seems inconceivable to him, you must miss him, right? Why don't you go looking for him instead of waiting for him? You really avoid broaching the subject with him, he'd almost manage to put doubt in your mind about the fact that Neil's coming back and yet you know Neil's coming back.
Aaron :
You didn't tell him who had transformed you, but Aaron quickly realised that there was something wrong with you. After all, you're a young vampire, a year old, you told him, but you seem to have as much control over yourself as Beliath or Raphael. It's not normal, you should have been like Ivan, unstable, really unstable, in the grip of your emotions and always on the verge of going on a rampage.
Aaron sees only two explanations for this, either you're lying and you're much older than you want to admit, or you've been transformed by an elder. He doesn't like the first idea, because if you're lying, you're potentially hiding something that could put others in danger, and he doesn't like the second idea either, because if there's one thing he's learnt in his life as a vampire, it's that it's much safer to stay away from anything remotely related to elders.
However, you don't seem to wish them any harm, despite the fact that you possess the same power as Raphael and that it would therefore be very easy for you to make them do what you want. He doesn't stop being suspicious though, he keeps asking you where you came from and why you've been transformed. You don't answer his questions out of caution, after all, you don't know if Neil had any enemies nearby and you don't want to take any risks.
It took several weeks for you to tell him about your transformation, but eventually you told him that you had been transformed by a former vampire who had trained you before leaving to continue his life elsewhere. You never gave his name, but your explanation seemed to be enough for Aaron.
He really enjoys sparring with you. Unlike Ivan or Ethan, you're a quick learner, very quick indeed. You're a little harder to beat with each sparring session and you don't tire easily. He's worried that in a while he won't be able to do it any more, because it's quite frightening to see how quickly you've assimilated his fighting habits and turned them against him and… he understands what your former vampire might have liked about you. After all, not everyone is capable of possessing your adaptability.
He also likes to go for walks with you in the forest at night. He remembers that the first few times he took Ivan with him into the forest, the young man would jump at the slightest noise, but you move through the forest as if it belonged to you. You're impressive and he can't deny that he really enjoys it. After all, he's not constantly worried about you getting hurt in a fight and you seem perfectly capable of defending yourself. Whoever trained you to be a vampire, Aaron thinks they must be powerful.
It's quite rare that you talk about your partner, so Aaron didn't find out about her until several months later. He's quite curious about her. What kind of person could have attracted the attention of a vampire as exceptional as you? Your partner must be out of the ordinary too.
Raphaël :
He's not suspicious of you at all. After all, maybe you're lucky. He, too, had great control over himself as a young vampire. Margarita was very impressed by his abilities and couldn't stop congratulating him on his self-control. In fact, he was very proud of it, and although he found it hard to admit, he couldn't stop boasting about it to Alessio. He thinks Aaron is exaggerating a bit with you and that he shouldn't worry so much.
Raphaël often comes to spend time with you. He finds you a pleasant person with an inquisitive and intelligent mind. You understand things easily and ask interesting questions that he's always happy to answer.
He's also delighted that you're interested in fighting. Raphaël loves teaching fencing to the people around him, so he's more than happy to teach you how to fight with his favourite weapon. What's more, you're a quick learner, which is really impressive - he's never met anyone capable of learning so easily.
He's also impressed by your ability to hypnotise people. He learned very early on how to do it, almost instinctively, so when you tell him how you instinctively knew how to hypnotise the man at the bar, he's delighted. At last he meets someone who understands what he's saying.
He's a little surprised when he hears that you've been transformed by an ancient vampire. After all, there aren't many ancient vampires left alive, so the fact that you could have been transformed by one of them is almost a sign of destiny for him, you're destined to do great things, he's no doubt about it.
He's a bit surprised when he hears about your partner for the first time after several months. He has a bit of trouble understanding how you manage not to talk about him more often and how you manage not to miss him. When he was separated from Margarita, he couldn't stop talking about her to everyone, she was his main topic of discussion and the person he thought about most. He wants to know more about your partner, how you met? What he does? Why isn't he with you? It's not that he's curious, but he really finds it hard to understand why you're not together.
Ethan :
He's only suspicious because Aaron and Beliath are suspicious. If it wasn't for the two older ones, he'd be more impressed by your abilities. He's well aware that your abilities are abnormal compared to him or Ivan. He still finds it hard to control his desire for blood when he feels strong emotions and he knows that it will be many years before he achieves the same level of control as the others.
But, even though he's wary, he can't really help hanging around you. Even when he's talking about something complex you always manage to follow the discussion and, unlike the others, he never thinks the questions you ask are stupid. It's really nice because it's the first time in a long time that he feels he can talk to someone without having to simplify things to be understood.
He was impressed by the control you had over yourself at the Moondance, at first he wasn't as confident as Beliath about letting you come with them, but eventually you impressed him. In fact, it's strange to say, but you seem to have been born to be a vampire. Everything they do and take years to learn it takes you much less time to assimilate.
Your hypnotic abilities are even more frightening after having convinced you to try it on him and seeing that you had succeeded. He didn't tell the others about it, because he feels a bit like he'd done something stupid by asking you to hypnotise him, but he was really so impressed that it took him several seconds before he managed to get a few words out.
When he learns that you have been transformed and trained by a vampire elder, he understands much better why you seem so adapted to the world of the night. Aaron and the others have told him enough about the elders for him to know that they are just as much threats as they are powerful beings. If he transformed you, it's probably because he saw a potential in you that the others didn't have.
He's also a bit curious when he realises that you're already in a relationship. Although he quickly realises that you're probably in a relationship with the vampire who turned you. He'd like to know why you're not together because he thinks it's rather strange, but you never answer his question honestly and you seem to have a lot of fun leaving him in doubt. But, it's not a problem, he loves mysteries and takes it as a challenge to discover your secret.
Léandra :
You met her by chance when you were wandering around town looking for something fun to do to pass the time. Léandra immediately realised that you were a vampire, and although she had originally planned to hypnotise you for a bit of fun, she was very disappointed when she realised that it didn't work on you at all. It's not really normal, succubi are more powerful than vampires after all, they're real demons whereas vampires are just modified humans for the most part.
Disappointed, but intrigued. She's started spending time with you, trying to understand you. You spend a lot of time together. Léandra is good company, she doesn't ask you questions about your past and just wants to have a good time. It's nice because you feel much less alone with her.
As time goes by, she's very impressed by your abilities, so much so that she didn't believe you at first when you told her you were a young vampire. In fact, she didn't even think it was possible, as the few young vampires she's met are so unstable that spending time with them is an ordeal. They always end up attacking passers-by and ruining even the most entertaining evenings.
You, however, have the self-control that makes you a pleasure to be around and you seem to understand a lot about the world of night quite instinctively. She knows that in a few years' time, you'll no doubt be one of the most powerful vampires around, and that's impressive - after all, it's not every day you meet people like you.
Over time, she becomes very intrigued by the person who has transformed you, but despite all her insistence and all the promises she makes to you to tell her his name, you never answer her question.
You seem ready to protect your secret tooth and nail. She stops insisting after a while, especially when she notices that her insistence is starting to irritate you. After all, you don't seem to have been turned by just anyone, and your stubbornness in protecting your secret is worrying enough for her to know that it's best to withdraw.
Farah :
You found yourself hanging around his pack by chance. You were roaming the forest looking for something interesting to do when you came across the clearing where his pack had set up camp. They invited you to spend some time with them, and as you had nothing better to do, you accepted.
It was a very pleasant evening, you listened to music, the members of the pack told you horror stories around the fire and Farah even took a packet of marshmallows out of her rucksack. Finally, you told them that you were a young vampire passing through town and didn't really know where to spend your time. They readily offered to let you spend some time with them, and you agreed.
You often visit the pack and Farah gets on quite well with you, although she is very intrigued by the control you seem to have over yourself. She can't remember ever having met a young vampire like you, which is impressive, but as you don't seem to have any ill intentions towards them, she's not worried.
You often accompanied her on walks in the forest or on patrols around the camp. You seem to be a very inquisitive person and you always listen carefully to any advice she gives you. This is something she appreciates, even more so when you ask her questions about things you haven't quite understood or things that intrigue you. It's always nice to meet someone who's curious and likes to learn new things, so she's always happy to answer your questions.
She also enjoys sparring with you, you're a quick learner, much quicker than the average person, and you're quick to reproduce the fighting techniques she teaches you. She never ceases to be intrigued by you, of course, you're far too different from the usual young vampires not to be intriguing and she'd like to know who turned you and why he left you alone when you seem to have so many more questions to ask.
However, she never asks you about him. You don't seem to want to talk about who turned you, and you wouldn't be the first of the pack to have secrets you don't want to talk about anyway. As long as you're not a danger to them, she sees no reason to ask you any questions.

Hey hey, maybe it’s a silly question but what are the boys favorite drinks (besides blood lol)
You know like tea, cola, coffee, juice, hot cocoa. water… stay hydrated everyone ☕️
What boys like to drink :
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
I like these types of questions because they're usually pretty quick to answer ^^. Here's the headcanons you requested! I hope you enjoy it! ^^
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
Vladimir :
He doesn't always remember that he needs to drink to stay hydrated. Ethan and Beliath often remind him of this.
Vladimir mainly drinks tea, with a strong preference for green tea and rooibos, although he always puts a lot of sugar in it.
He'll tell you that he loves black tea and enjoys drinking Earl Grey, but in reality he hates it. Even as a child, he couldn't help but wince every time he drank it (although his parents would have supplied him with any other type of tea he could have asked for, but it was his father's favourite and he was determined to follow in his father's example). He continues to drink it to this day, much to the dismay of the other inhabitants of the manor.
He loves hot chocolate. It's his favourite drink in winter, even if he has a bit of trouble accepting it. He always feels like a child when he drinks it.
He also drinks a lot of hot apple juice when he goes to Christmas markets in winter.
He drinks a lot iced tea in summer. However, he remains fairly classic when it comes to flavours and drinks mainly green tea with peach.
His favourite fruit juice is orange juice, but orange juice without pulp. He'll never touch it if Beliath accidentally buys orange juice with the pulp.
Ivan has introduced him to bubble tea and he's having a bit of trouble deciding whether he likes it. On the one hand, tea with syrup is very good; on the other, he's always worried about choking on the tapioca pearls.
He hates the vast majority of sodas.
Béliath :
He's very careful to stay hydrated, especially since Ethan told him it's good for the skin. So he monitors his water intake to make sure he's drinking enough a day, and he constantly reminds the other members of the manor to remember to drink water (in fact he reminds Vladimir, Raphael and Aaron most of all).
He doesn't drink much tea, but he really likes black tea. In general, he drinks tea when Vladimir or Raphaël have made too much and he drinks it with them while chatting in front of the fireplace.
He rarely drinks hot chocolate, except on the coldest winter nights.
He is very fond of mulled wine, which he often drinks in winter when he wanders around the city during the Christmas market. However, he prefers it with lots of cinnamon.
He prefers to drink coffee, but he doesn't drink it as strong as Ethan does. He didn't like it at first, but since Ethan told him you could add a little milk to it, he drinks it much more often.
He loves most sodas. However, he has a clear preference for cherry cola. There's always some in the fridge at the manor.
He doesn't drink much fruit juice because he finds it a bit too sweet for him. However, he really likes pineapple juice and sometimes buys some for himself when he goes shopping.
Ivan :
Since being transformed into a vampire, he has lost a lot of sensation in his taste buds. However, he continues to take care to stay hydrated. He always has a bottle of fresh water in his room, which he makes sure to drink throughout the night.
He always puts syrup in the water he drinks, because even though Ethan insists that water has no taste, Ivan doesn't like the taste of water. He's tried many different flavours of syrup, but generally prefers grenadine or strawberry syrup.
He doesn't like tea. He tries hard to drink it, but he really doesn't like it. It tastes too bitter, despite the large amounts of sugar he uses.
He prefers to drink herbal tea, especially a candy tea that Béliath found in a small artisanal candy shop. He buys her some from time to time to please Ivan.
He often drinks hot chocolate (and he's Vladimir's excuse for drinking hot chocolate, after all, Ivan won't drink it alone). He likes to add marshmallows to his chocolate, whipped cream or chocolate coulis.
He's delighted to have given Vladimir and Raphaël a taste of bubble tea. He's even happier that Beliath has brought him some from his shopping.
He hardly ever drinks coffee, or only with a lot of milk. As with tea, he finds the taste far too bitter.
He loves sodas. He has a preference for Orangina and Coca-Cola.
Aaron :
He almost constantly forgets to drink water and it's even worse in summer. It's not his fault, he tries really hard to remember, but every time he does he ends up with a massive headache without understanding why, and it takes Ethan or Beliath pointing out that he hasn't drunk water for a long time to get him to think about it. He thinks it's a bit ridiculous, but as he's not the only one in the manor with this problem, he assumes it's to do with the fact that he's a vampire.
He never puts syrup in his water, but often drinks sparkling water.
He prefers herbal tea to tea, and prefers white tea to green and black tea.
He loves coffee, but he doesn't drink black coffee like Ethan, preferring Latte and Cappucino (especially Cappucino).
He is also very fond of Irish coffee, sometimes making it for himself and Ethan and more rarely for Béliath and Raphaël.
He rarely drinks hot chocolate. When he does, he always adds a little cinnamon or vanilla, and if he drinks one with Ivan, he always accepts a few marshmallows.
He quite likes fruit juices, but he prefers to make them himself rather than buy them ready-made. It allows him to mix the fruit he wants and he also finds it much less sweet that way.
Raphaël :
He often forgets to drink water, it's not deliberate on his part, he just can't remember. It was even worse when he lived alone and had to remember without anyone to remind him. Now that he lives at the manor it's easier for him.
He loves water, but he loves it even more with syrup. Ivan has introduced him to lots of different syrup flavours and he wouldn't be able to choose just one as his favourite. He loves lemon, grenadine, strawberry or mint syrup (especially in summer), kiwi, pineapple, blackcurrant or cherry syrup. Béliath is careful to vary his purchases so that there's always a different syrup to drink.
He drinks a lot of tea, but he doesn't have a favourite type. The only thing that matters to him is being able to add sugar.
He really loves lemonade.
He likes coffee, it's not his favourite drink, but he never turns down a cup, especially if he can add milk and sugar.
He loves hot chocolate at least as much as Ivan does. The stronger the taste of the chocolate, the better he likes it. He prefers hot chocolate made with real squares of chocolate and milk to powdered chocolate.
He often drinks soda, mainly because they're generally very sweet, so he really likes Coca-Cola, Fanta and Orangina.
Ethan :
He has noticed from observing vampires that the vast majority of them have difficulty feeling thirst. As a result, they are easily dehydrated. So he takes great care to stay well hydrated and often reminds the others to drink during the night. A small part of him thinks that doing this is ridiculous, but the other part constantly reminds him that he's a doctor, and if one of his friends were to fall ill he couldn't help but blame himself.
He really doesn't like tea. No matter what type of tea or how much sugar he puts in it, he really doesn't like it. The only thing that could persuade him to drink tea is a sore throat and even then, he'd put a lot of honey in his tea.
He loves coffee, and the stronger and more bitter the coffee, the more he likes it. He's the only one who can drink it like that in the manor, and the worst thing, according to Raphaël, is that he doesn't even put sugar or milk in his coffee. Ethan doesn't really understand what his friends have against the coffee he likes to drink - after all, it keeps him awake longer and he finds the smell really reassuring.
He also really likes the Irish coffee that Aaron makes from time to time.
He doesn't like hot chocolate. It's always too sweet for him.
He almost never drinks fruit juice, unless it's made by Aaron.
He doesn't like the vast majority of soda either, he often finds them too sweet for him.
Neil :
He's been feeling a bit out of sorts since he got out of the cellar. He's been so used to feeling thirsty for months that he doesn't really feel it now, and it always takes him a while to realise that he needs to drink water.
The beverage he drinks most often is tea. He has a slight preference for black tea. Depending on his mood, hhe may add sugar, but this is not always the case, as he generally prefers to drink his tea without sugar. He generally likes citrus-flavoured tea, with a preference for lemon.
He'll tell you he doesn't like hot chocolate, and in most cases that's true: he doesn't really like it. However, there is one exception. Neil really likes hot chocolate when it's served with marshmallows, whipped cream and a caramel coulis (he especially likes it for the caramel coulis).
He doesn't drink much coffee, although he does enjoy it. Like hot chocolate, he loves coffee with a touch of caramel, so he's unlikely to turn down a cup of coffee like that.
He really likes iced tea in summer. Neil's not too fussy about flavours, he's less keen on red fruit, but he'll always go for a citrus iced tea.
He drinks very little soda because he finds it too sweet. He might enjoy a glass of lemon cola from time to time, but he certainly wouldn't drink a whole bottle.
Léandra :
She needs to drink less water than a human, but never forgets to stay hydrated.
She always prefers a little syrup with her water because she finds the taste of water boring. She really likes strawberry syrup and mint syrup, but her favourite is still aniseed syrup.
She really likes hot apple juice. In fact, she knows how to make it very well and makes it very regularly in winter. She finds it very pleasant to drink it while sitting in front of a window watching the snow fall.
Her favourite hot drink is coffee. She has tasted all kinds of coffee, although she always prefers black coffee. She also likes espresso, or espresso romano, and Viennese coffee, which she loves to have with speculos.
She rarely drinks hot chocolate; in fact, it's usually coffee with a little chocolate that she drinks rather than real hot chocolate.
In summer, she likes to drink lemonade.
As with ice cream, she loves ginger tea, whether hot or cold. She often accompanies it with a little lemon and, more rarely, orange. She also likes to add a little honey, especially in winter.
Farah :
She takes great care to stay hydrated and to ensure that all the members of her pack always have water available. Farah always carries at least one full bottle of water in her rucksack.
She likes water without needing to add syrup, and she doesn't like sparkling water. She does, however, know how to make her own syrup, having learnt centuries ago, and is always happy to show new pack members how.
She's not a big fan of tea, she doesn't hate it, but she doesn't like it either.
She loves drinking hot chocolate, especially in winter. It's a time of year when she often stops with members of her pack in cafés to warm up. She's tasted lots of different hot chocolates because of this and she always has a preference for Viennese chocolate or any hot chocolate with either a little hazelnut or a little coconut or vanilla.
She loves hazelnut coffee. If she could, she'd keep a thermos of hazelnut coffee in her rucksack, but unfortunately that's not really possible, so instead she waits for a break near a town so she can go and buy some in a café as soon as the opportunity arises.

Heyyy🙂 i wanted to ask If you could maybe write about Beliath (only If you want to) how He was at the beginning of the relationship and how it maybe deepens yk Like If He still Flirts with Others or Just whatever Pops in your mind haha i Hope you enjoy the Christmas time and have a great day/night ❤️❤️
Beliath at the start of his romantic relationship with MC :
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
I had a happy Christmas and I hope you will too! ^^
Here's the headcanons you requested! I hope you enjoy it! ^^
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
You set the boundaries early on in the relationship, but once the boundaries are established he never breaks them.
He'll only keep flirting with other people if you're OK with it. Otherwise, he'll only flirt with you. Seduction games are always something he enjoys, so even if you've been in a relationship with him for years, there are always times when he'll flirt with you as if it were the first time he'd met you.
He's never really been in a love relationship before, at least not a long-term one. So he has a bit of trouble knowing what is and isn't appropriate in this kind of relationship. It's a bit stressful for him in a way, even if he enjoys the discovery. The last thing he wants is to lose you over a mistake he made without realising it.
What he loves most at the beginning of your relationship is being able to hold you in his arms and breathe in your scent. It's a discovery for him to simply lie next to you in bed doing nothing but enjoying your presence. He's never done that with anyone before and he soon feels he can't live without it.
He feels like he's addicted to the love he feels for you. It's an emotion he'd never experienced before he met you and it's scary in a way, he didn't think his body could ever feel that emotion and he doesn't always know how to deal with it. He feels a bit silly, in a way he's never felt before. Your smiles, your face, your laughter, everything about you makes him feel like he's on cloud nine. He feels like he could look at you for hours and never get bored.
Little by little, he'll tell you a little more about his feelings and emotions. He feels a lot more than he lets on, and he's not always as cheerful as he'd like you to think. More often than not, he prefers not to show his negative emotions and to pretend they don't exist, but the more your relationship progresses, the more he trusts you enough to confide in you.
He's always surprised at the start of your relationship by how easily your presence calms him down. He always feels better when you're with him, and if he used to think of himself as a totally independent person, now that he knows you he realises that your opinion counts for him.
He learns and enjoys discovering all your little habits and quirks. By observing you closely, he can always tell when you're upset, stressed or sad, and he knows you well enough to know what to do to cheer you up.
Especially at the beginning of your relationship, he likes to make you breakfast in bed. He also always buys you a few things you like when he goes shopping for the manor, whether it's an item of clothing, a piece of jewellery or something you really enjoy eating.
When you start sleeping together, you'll notice that he's always putting his cold feet up against you in bed. If you prefer certain fabrics for bedding, he'll buy new sheets, blankets and pillows to suit you better without the slightest hesitation.
At the start of your relationship, you quickly discover his ability to spend several hours in the bathroom. If you're quick on your feet, you'd better get there before he does. Otherwise, he'll be very happy to share all his beauty products with you.
He never forgets birthdays, whether it's your anniversary or your anniversary as a couple, and he always tries to prepare a little evening for you, whether it's a date at the cinema or a date in a restaurant, or even both.

Hi! Can you do headcanons where after Neil’s neutral ending they meet together for the first time but MC is already in a relationship with someone else? sending hugs ❤️
Neil reunites with MC long after the Neutral route has ended, but MC is in a couple with someone else :
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
Here's the scenario you asked for! I hope you enjoy it! ^^
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
Of course, there was a chance that you had rebuilt your life. Neil didn't think it would take him this long to calm his murderous rage and anger. But it's been thirty years since he left and left you at the manor with the boys. Thirty years is such a short time when you're a old vampire, but it's so much longer when you're a young vampire. He travelled the world for several years, keeping a low profile, both to avoid the vampire hunters and the vampires themselves.
When he came back, Neil looked for you, but he had a bit of trouble finding you, because Neil hadn't considered the idea that you might leave the manor to live somewhere else, but you fulfilled your travel wishes… alone. When he asked about you no one was able to give him an accurate answer. They only said that you'd left one night on a whim and that although you'd initially sent them letters, you'd eventually stopped.
It took Neil a long time to find you in this little country town. It's pretty far from anywhere, especially vampire hunters. You live in a small, perfectly self-contained house, and he came across you with your partner at the start of the night.
You've rebuilt your life and "forgotten" him. How long had you waited for him before you got bored, before thinking he wouldn't come back after all? He can't deny it, Neil feels a bit vexed. In fact, a little isn't a strong enough word to express how offended he feels. Well, he doesn't just feel offended, of course, there are other emotions, emotions he doesn't feel like questioning. He prefers to think of himself as angry, angry because you lied, not because he feels sad.
Because Neil isn't suffering from heartbreak, of course not, it's just disappointment and a feeling of betrayal, as well as the feeling that he's been a fool and an idiot. It's not possible to trust other people's feelings, it's far too changeable, far too fickle. He should have remembered that instead of stupidly allowing himself to fall in love.
The worst part is that you: powerful, intelligent, perceptive, with an innate sense of authority and a remarkable ability to adapt, have fallen in love with an idiot. A simple vampire, not even powerful, let alone intelligent, he's banal, he looks like everyone else. Why you preferred this thing to him is incomprehensible. He's just an idiot, he lacks a response and he doesn't have your courage or your sense of humour. And yet he saw you joking together on the terrace of a café and then leaving hand in hand.
It's good that you're happy, he wouldn't have liked to find you unhappy… but he would have preferred you to be happy with him and not with someone else… He'd like to be able to ignore what he's feeling. He can't remember ever loving anyone before you. The painful feeling in his heart is new and trying to understand it is far too frightening. Since he saw you with him, he doesn't know how to react. He followed you for a little while, discreetly enough so that you didn't notice, or at least he hopes not. At first he hesitated to speak to you, but then he gave up. It would be ridiculous to come back and for what? It would be pointless, you're happy and he's not going to have fun ruining everything just because he's a bit upset.
He was wandering aimlessly through the ancient streets of the city when you called out to him. Neil sighed, but turned back to your voice as you came swiftly towards him.
"Neil! I was sure I smelled you in town! I'm so glad to see you."
Of course, it was he who trained you. He should have known he wouldn't be able to pass unnoticed staying so close to you, you were the most powerful young vampire he'd ever met after all, no wonder your powers have developed even more over the years. You stopped a few steps away from him, a fake smile on your face and your arms crossed. He made no comment, just smiled back and crossed his arms behind his back.
"It's good to see you too."
There was another moment of silence between you You didn't really dare move, not out of fear, you'd never been afraid of Neil. You resisted the urge to hug him, you'd imagined the worst since he left and if the fact that Neil wasn't a big fan of surprise hugs hadn't held you back, you'd have jumped on his neck already. You cleared your throat to speak.
"You could have come to see me and I would have introduced you.
-You didn't seem to want to be disturbed by anyone…
-Oh… I see. I'm sorry about that. I wish you'd found out differently…
-It's all right… I can understand. You've had enough of waiting.
-What… No! you exclaim. You couldn't be further from the truth.
-So what? His voice sounds harsher than he'd like and he quickly pulls himself together, not wanting to give you the impression that this situation is hurting her in any way. What happened?
-I…, you sigh and close your eyes for a moment. It's complicated, Neil. I hadn't heard from you. I… if you'd come back sooner… and if you'd kept writing to me…
-So it's my fault for you!
-No. I've given hope…"
He grunts briefly before crossing his arms in front of him. You remember his behaviour well enough to know that it's not his usual behaviour. You force yourself to uncross your arms, but you don't know where to put your hands. The urge to hug him never left you for a second, but you still didn't want to make him feel uncomfortable. You weren't worried about Neil hurting you, he'd shown you several times that he had no desire to hurt you.
"I didn't know where you were… I didn't even know if you were still alive Neil…
-You thought I was weak enough to die stupidly.
-No. But you weren't at your best when you left! And you stopped sending me letters overnight! I was afraid something had happened to you…
-Why did you leave the manor? Why didn't you wait for me there?
-I've been looking for you… you reply immediately. Neil, I'm not exaggerating, you sent me letters every month for five years and suddenly nothing! I was scared for you, I wasn't going to stay at the manor and do nothing when I didn't know if you were safe… I wanted to find you to make sure you were all right…"
Neil looked away to stare at an imaginary point behind you. The situation had become increasingly complicated for him and for a long time he had ceased all communication with the outside world, going out only to hunt, he had not had the energy to write for a long time.
"I didn't think you'd come looking for me…" he finally replied after a long moment of silence.
-I couldn't find you… I asked other vampires, but all the testimonies I could gather went back several years… Nobody seemed to have seen you… I was upset… I even infiltrated hunter clans to try and get some answers, but no news from that side either…
-What?!
-It wasn't as dangerous as it sounds, you downplayed it, and… -I was really worried about you…
-You should never have done something like that! It was dangerous.
-It wasn't any more dangerous than going off on your own without giving me any news, you retort."
There was another moment of silence between you, before Neil sighed.
"What happened next? What did you do?
-I looked for you for several years… you were nowhere to be found… so I began to think you'd disappeared… That… that hurt me a lot. I was angry with myself for not staying with you.
-I wasn't good company at the time.
-I wouldn't have minded…
-And… when did you meet him… your partner?
-A few years ago… he was dying and I turned him into a vampire and little by little… we fell in love…
-It reminds me of something…
-I couldn't leave him to his own devices when I'd just transformed him… it would have been killed or it would have wreaked havoc on the town."
Finally, Neil uncrossed his arms before looking at you again.
"Are you thinking of breaking up with it one day?
-Neil… it's not as simple as that. I don't know. Maybe one day we won't love each other any more and we'll go our separate ways, or maybe I'd spend my whole life with it. I can't answer your question with any certainty. I'd be lying to you and I've never lied to you about my feelings for you.
-But you're with it now.
-Yes, but I loved you at the time. I didn't lie to you when I told you. I loved you, and if you'd accepted it I would have gone with you. I would have helped you, we would have got through it together.
-I wasn't quick enough…"
You shake your head, stepping forward slowly.
"I'm sorry, Neil. I'm still very fond of you, but not in the same way. If you want to stay with us for a while…
-I'd rather not… I don't think I can be nice to it…
-I understand…"
There was still a long silence between you. Neil didn't seem to want to move, or even leave. Finally, after another moment, you spoke again.
"Neil? Can I give you a hug? I was… really worried about you."
Neil looked at you for a moment without answering. In several centuries of life, he had never met anyone who was worried about him. Most people would just be afraid of him, but after a moment's thought he nodded and you quickly crossed the small distance between you to give him a hug.
"I'm so glad you're healthy… Please don't disappear like that again. If I'd still been alive, I'd have died worrying."
After a moment Neil closed his arms around you.
"I'm glad you're healthy too."

Hey, could you write a hc where the s/o makes (forces) the boys play 'Mr. Hopp's Playhouse 2'?
(Sorry if I misspelled something, English is not my native language)
The boys play "Mr.Hopp's Playhouse 2" :
Hi! I hope you are well! ^^
I've never played this game. So I wrote this after watching some spoilers and let's plays. (There are a lot of spoilers about the game.) I hope you enjoy it! ^^
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
Vladimir :
There's not much reason for him to play a video game… let alone a horror video game. He's only played a few games of Mario Kart and Professor Layton to please Ivan . But you were so insistent and your smiles to convince him were so hard to ignore… He didn't have the courage to refuse you for long. You seem to like this game after all, and he likes to please you.
He doesn't really like this game. For one thing, he doesn't understand little Esther. If his parents had ever given him a cuddly toy like Mr Hopp, he would have been horrified for weeks. It's not for nothing that he broke all his little sister's dolls when he was still a child. That rabbit just looks terrifying, what child would want a cuddly toy like that, seriously?
He doesn't really play and certainly not without you next to him. In fact, he can't get past the 2nd chapter. He keeps getting stopped by the Matrons. He closed his eyes when he saw Mr Stripes appear and hid his face in his hands when he saw Miss Bo.
You end up doing the game for him as he gets caught for the umpteenth time by the Matrons. It seems too complicated for him anyway.
As long as you're playing he'll complain about just about everything: "Why are there spikes in the ground?" "Why are giant hands trying to grab your character?" "Why is this rabbit so scary? Why is Isabelle so mean?" "Why is this entity trying so hard to kill you?" "Couldn't you suggest a gentler, cuter game?" He'd like to stop closing his eyes and hiding behind you every time something scary appears.
If you were planning to play this game to spend your time reassuring him, you've succeeded. He won't complain about it though, after all, it's quite nice to see the attention you give him to reassure him, almost as much as when you watch horror films together. He might agree to play another horror video game with you, as long as you continue to reassure him.
Béliath :
He doesn't play many video games because there aren't many that he likes, although he does sometimes play when he wants to please Ivan or Ethan. So of course he wasn't going to say no when you asked him if he wanted to play Mr Hopps playhouse 2. Horror video games aren't his favourite games, although he hasn't told anyone in the manor, he loves playing Otome games and Visual novels. However, he's happy to oblige you by trying out the game you've suggested.
It takes him a while to get the hang of it, but once he does, he finds it quite fun. He's really into the story of little Esther, and he's not very fond of Molly. "She called me crazy! Esther and I are not crazy! That girl is horrible, I don't like her". He doesn't like the design of the toys. A cuddly toy is supposed to be reassuring and cute, he'd never give a child a stuffed rabbit like that!
He plays pretty well for someone who's not used to video games. He gets through the first few levels easily and listens to your advice on how to avoid matrons, spades, Mr Hopps and the rest. It's easy for both of you to get to the end of the game, and he's pretty proud of himself for getting there without asking you to do certain levels for him.
He deeply hates the ending. "Why would she do that? Esther would never do that, it's not fair." He asks you to write, create, direct, draw another ending, anything as long as it doesn't go like that.
He really enjoyed this time with you and is ready to play another horror game with you, as long as it has a more positive ending.
Ivan :
Ivan plays a lot of video games, and enjoys them all to the extent that he keeps a laptop hidden away in his bedroom so that he can continue to play them despite Vladimir's ban. He likes the classic games, like Mario, Zelda or Sims, but he's never against a bit of novelty, even if he doesn't have as many opportunities to discover new games as he did when he was human. He sometimes plays the Otome game that Beliath introduces to him, even though he finds it much harder than the incubus to assume. He knew the game by name and had already played Mr.Hopps playhouse, but he'd never played the sequel. So when you offered to play it with him, he immediately accepted.
He's such an excellent player that it's almost frustrating to watch him succeed at everything he does. He's quickly attached himself to little Esther and he really wants to save everyone in the orphanage. It's important to him, he knows he won't be able to sleep until he's finished the whole game. He's always talking to you about the previous game and if you've played it too, he's even happier to be able to share his enthusiasm with you.
He's shocked by the ending when he spots Ruby. He immediately turns to you and exclaims "MC! It's so unfair! This game never really ends well! Poor Ruby! This can't be happening! I can't accept this!" He soon gets over it, though, and continues to tell you about the story with enthusiasm. He has other game ideas to play with you, like Five nights at Freddy's.
A few days later, he comes back to you in an even better mood to exclaim. "MC, they've created a Mr.Hopps playhouse 3. Do you want to come and play with me? I'll get some popcorn and we'll spend the night playing!"
Aaron :
Aaron is not a video game player. He rarely plays them, and only DS games when Ivan comes to see him to play Mario Kart. So he agrees to play this game just to please you and because you seem to like it so much. He likes a bit of horror video games, but they're not his favourites and he'd much rather play an RPG.
It takes a little time for him to understand how the game works and to remember which keys to press, but once he does he's a pretty good player. He'll need a bit of practice to get through the more difficult levels, but with your help to get hints and tips he'll get there quickly.
He sometimes makes a few comments: "Why does Esther leave her room in the middle of the night? That rabbit looks far too dangerous for her alone, she should find an adult!" He doesn't really understand why the adults at the orphanage don't react when a little girl complains about hearing voices, seeing three newly-bought stuffed animals moving around and two children disappearing. Sure, it's a horror video game, but… is it normal for adults to be so stupid?
He doesn't like the ending: "It can't end like this, MC! Poor Esther, poor Ruby. We should be able to do something to help her, I can't let the bad guy win. It's far too sad Rubis doesn't deserve this and his grandmother fought too well, it's unfair!"
When he finds out about the 3, he insists on playing it with you. He has to take revenge on Mr Hopps, he can't leave a little girl in this situation. He's going to defeat this creature at all costs, and Esther and Rubis will finally be safe.
Raphaël :
He doesn't really like video games, and there are very few video games adapted to his blindness, so he hardly ever plays them. However, he does enjoy watching other people play, especially if they're playing an RPG, otome game or visual novel. In fact, he'd really like otome games and visual novels to be adapted for him. You didn't have much trouble convincing him to stay with you while you played.
He's constantly worried about little Esther and her friends. He doesn't like your description of the cuddly toys, "Cuddly toys are supposed to be cute, why do they look scary? "Why would adults give scary stuffed animals to children?!" "Wait MC! Why are you saying that there are spikes and axes hanging from the ceiling in this orphanage?! What kind of orphanage has that kind of thing?"
He quickly becomes totally absorbed in the game's story. Sure, it looks scary, but it's still not as scary as Aaron's horror stories. But that doesn't stop him worrying whenever you cross paths with Miss Bo, Mr Hopps or Mr Stripes. "Run and hide MC, don't let him get little Esther!"
He is genuinely upset by the ending. "What do you mean MC, what do you mean Esther is giving Mr Hoops to her granddaughter?" It's far too horrible for him, it even makes him want to weep over the fate of poor little Ruby. He spends the rest of the night with a sad look on his face until you tell him that you can make things right with the correct ending of the 3rd game. Of course he wants you to play it - you've got to save little Ruby!
Ethan :
Ethan really enjoys video games, as long as they're not war games. He's a very good gamer, although he has a slight tendency to get annoyed when he can't get past a certain level. He loves all the Ace Attorney games, but also Professor Layton, although a little less so. He also really likes horror video games, as long as they're not gory horror. He sees enough blood in his daily life not to want to see any when he's trying to relax. When you ask him to try this game he immediately accepts. Firstly, you seem to enjoy playing a game with him and secondly, he doesn't know the game and is happy to discover it with you.
He likes this game, it won't be his favourite, but it's fairly easy to play once you get used to it, and the story is very interesting for him, who likes mysteries. He wants to understand what's going on as quickly as possible. He quickly realises that Dee isn't who she says she is and he's angry that he can't allow Esther to find out. "MC, she's stupid! You can tell Dee's one of the bad guys! What's the point of playing if I can't kill her now!"
The end really pisses him off. "It's not fair MC! I did everything I could to protect Esther. He shouldn't win. Why is she giving Mr Hopps to her granddaughter? The story can't end like this!" He ruminates on the ending for several days until he comes up with the rest of the game.
He'll immediately come and find you to play with him. He's not going to let it end that way anyway. There's no way a simple video game villain can defeat him.
Neil :
Neil doesn't excel at video games and, as with anything he doesn't master perfectly, that really annoys him. He likes RPGs and he loves management games - the more complicated the management, the better. He won't hesitate to spend hours on them until he knows the game by heart. When you asked him to play this game, he was initially reluctant to refuse. It's not at all the kind of game he likes, but after some thought he accepted. It's a game that you seem to enjoy and if that's all you want to do to make yourself happy, then he sees no reason to refuse you.
He has a bit of trouble with the keys, which forces him to start each level several times, especially at the beginning. Once he's used to it, he loses less often, to his great satisfaction. The only problem is that Neil is not really a calm player, although he is never angry with Esther, but always with all the other characters.
"Who does Molly think she is? Esther is so much better than her!" "What is it with you humans, always locking people in cellars?! It's barbaric, stop doing that." "I don't like that Beverley. Esther should leave that orphanage and go and live somewhere else!" "Are they all stupid in that orphanage?! Esther is a busy girl, she shouldn't be wasting her time saving them, my little is far too nice to them, she deserves better!"
He's really angry about the end, how dare the villain attack his little Esther again! He complains to you for a long time about this, things shouldn't be like this, he refuses. But he calms down when you tell him that the 3rd game has a more positive ending. And of course he wants to play it, he can't leave Esther in this situation, she needs his help.
Léandra :
Léandra rarely plays video games, not that she doesn't like them. It's just that it's not her favourite thing to do, but she loves fighting games and horror games, and she's often asked you to play them with her. So when you came to see her to ask her to play this game, you didn't have to be very insistent to convince her.
She's a pretty good player. She easily understands how the game works and doesn't have much trouble adapting to it to win. She also catches on to the story very quickly. Which she wouldn't have thought possible at first and her instincts are pretty good. "MC… I'm not feeling Dee at all. She's one of the evil ones, isn't she?" "MC… I don't think it's possible to win against them… They're too strong for the little one and there are too many of them. Esther's going to lose."
She really likes the ending. It's a bit depressing to see that you can't do anything about the villain and that he'll always find a way to get the better of you somehow. It's not what you expect from a video game and that's exactly why she likes it. It's reassuring for her, a succubus brought up on that principle. She knows that no matter what she does she'll never win against her mother, and seeing Esther lose confirms that principle for her.
When you suggest playing 3, she's frankly reluctant. Admittedly, the ending is more positive, but doesn't it spoil everything to win against them in the end? Mr Hopps and the entity will eventually come back anyway, and if it's not Esther or Ruby it'll be another child, so what's the point in trying to defeat them?
Farah :
She rarely plays video games, as she doesn't have the time to do so because she has to manage her pack and, what's more, electricity isn't the most common thing to find in the middle of the forest. She's never against the idea of playing video games, though, and she's already tried her hand at a few management games, often encouraged by younger members of the pack. She's already played Harvest Moon and Story of Seasons, and she has to admit that they're games that she's really enjoyed; if it were easier for her to own a games console, she'd probably play them more often.
When you offered her the chance to play Mr.Hopps playhouse 2 with you, she immediately accepted. She's not very good at it, though, and while she managed to get through the first few chapters without asking you for help, she needs your help to finish the game from chapter 5 onwards. She also takes the plight of the children in the orphanage very much to heart. "The poor children must be frightened and Esther must be terrified, poor thing. I would be if I were her, it's horrible that the adults don't protect them, me at least I had my brother…"
She finds the ending really sad, "Why do things have to end like this? Ruby is just a child and her grandmother would never have wanted to hurt her… It's not fair on them."
She's quite reassured when you tell her that the end of 3 is different, and she hopes she'll soon get the chance to play it with you to change things. After all, she doesn't like to fail, and she doesn't feel good about leaving Esther and Ruby in this situation.

Neil take care MC who is sick :
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
Here’s the headcanon from Mc sick, this time with Neil. All that’s left to do is Léandra and Farah. I hope you enjoy it! ^^
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
Neil gets ill less often than you. But in your defence, you're still a young vampire and your immune system isn't yet as resistant to disease as that of the older ones.
When you're ill, Neil always takes care of you and it's never bothered him. After all, you look after him when he's ill and he knows full well that he's not a nice person to be around when he's ill. So taking care of you when you're not feeling well is the least he could do to thank you for staying with him.
He doesn't have the best medical knowledge. He can cure a cold or a touch of flu, but he's generally much better at healing wounds and sores. He is, however, willing to fetch you a doctor - However, he knows a few witches and vampires who would be perfectly capable of treating you if you had a problem he couldn't handle himself.
Tonight you really weren't feeling well, between your stuffy nose, your headache and your watery eyes, nothing was right and that was without mentioning your irritated throat and the constant coughing fits that shook you from head to toe. You let out a disgruntled grunt before sniffling, the box of tissues seemed light years away from your bed and moving to it an ordeal. You let yourself fall back onto the pillow out of spite, knowing that you wouldn't be able to get back to sleep anyway.
Neil had gone out before you woke up, probably to go hunting as he hadn't been able to go for several days. It has to be said that he had fallen ill this week and that you were with him to look after him… which no doubt explains the state you were in this night.
You still hadn't moved from your bed an hour later when you heard Neil come home, not finding you in the living room, he immediately went upstairs to see you in the bedroom. You barely straightened your head when you heard him open the door.
Your headache seemed to have got worse in the meantime, because the creak of the door made you groan in pain, as did the light coming from the corridor.
"MC? Are you feeling all right? Why are you still in bed?
-I think I'm a bit sick," you mumbled.
Neil remained silent for a moment after hearing your hoarse voice before continuing.
-A bit? You look like you haven't slept in days.
-I'd like to get some sleep, but my eyes are hurting and I feel like the top of my head is wrapped in cotton wool.
-Oh, that reminds me," joked the vampire. What can I do to make you feel better?
-Hm… me too. Could you pass me the box of tissues, please, darling.
Your vampire nodded immediately before taking the box of tissues from the chest of drawers and sitting down next to you.
-I knew this would happen. It seems you've been a little too close to me this week.
-Well… it looks like you're going to have to get a little too close to me this week too.
Your joke is stopped by a coughing fit that makes you tremble. Neil helps you to sit up more comfortably in the bed to get over it and once you've calmed down you sigh in annoyance before resting your head on his shoulder.
-I thought that once I became a vampire I wouldn't fall ill so often…
-Your body still needs a little time to build up immunity, but this will happen less and less often. Neil replies, gently stroking your head. Would you like me to do something for you in the meantime? Some honey tea, perhaps?
-Mh… yes… Are you staying in bed with me tonight?
-Of course, as soon as I've made you some tea.
He kissed you before leaving to make you a cup of tea, promising to come back soon. When he left, you sighed. You weren't getting any better, but knowing that your partner was taking care of you all night was quite nice.
Neil came back quickly, as he'd promised, and gave you a hot cup of tea before lying down beside you in bed. You were able to come back and snuggle up to him, leaning against his shoulder to keep yourself steady as you slowly sipped your tea. You didn't say anything for a while, until you finished your cup of tea and Neil picked it up and put it on the bedside table.
"Do you want me to read you a book or would you rather get some sleep?
-If you read, I might find it easier to fall asleep," you say, leaning back against him a little more. There's a book I wanted to finish on the bedside table.
Neil smiled and kissed you before immediately taking the book you'd asked him for to start reading. You closed your eyes in the meantime, still feeling as though your head was in cotton wool, but your partner's calm voice was slowly calming you down and the simple fact of being able to keep your eyes closed while listening to him soothed the pain that was throbbing in your skull. After a long time, just as you were starting to fall asleep, you murmured.
"I like it when you look after me like that.
-You don't have to get sick for me to do it.
You laughed before answering….
-I'll try to think about that next time, then... I love you.
-I love you too. Sleep well. I'll be right beside you."

Whtat would the boys be like as the fem!MC's Sugar Baby? Mc inherited a lot of money from her parents, and has a stable source of money that pays very well.
Fem!MC is a Sugar Mommy :
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
Here is the headcanon you requested, I hope you enjoy it! ^^
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
Vladimir :
Vladimir immediately noticed your self-confidence, whether it was the way you held yourself or the ease with which you expressed yourself and your point of view in public. That was the first thing he noticed about you. You seem to know how to assert yourself with disconcerting ease whatever the situation, but that's also what intimidated him a little, he has to admit.
You didn't hesitate to put him in his place when he disrespected you, and at the same time you looked after him and made sure he was OK. It was strangely comforting for him to know that he could always count on you if anything went wrong and that you wouldn't let his bad temper get the better of you.
He doesn't really know how it happened, but it was quite naturally that you ended up as a couple. He really likes this because he feels that he is very precious to you. You spend a lot of time spoiling him and taking care of him, as if he were the most wonderful person on the planet, and that's very comforting.
He doesn't know how you do it, but the gifts you give him always make him happy. He knows that they are also very expensive gifts. After all, not just anyone can give him the three volumes of the first edition of Pride and Prejudice. His hands were shaking when you gave it to him, he was so happy, no one could have given him a better present.
The first time Beliath told him that you were his Sugar Mommy, he didn't understand what that meant, but he knew very well that coming from him it couldn't be something he wanted to know the definition of… He ended up asking you anyway. He babbled and blushed so much that you were afraid he'd faint. You hadn't even slept together at the time. He really doesn't know how that idea got into Beliath's head.
Because that's what stresses him the most about this idea. Have sex with you. He didn't even dare tell you that he'd never had a partner before you and he's still afraid you'll laugh at him because of it. Of course, seeing his stress and not really understanding what it was all about, you told him that a simple romantic relationship suited you perfectly, which seemed to reassure him straight away. He'll probably be ready to have sex with you later on in the relationship.
Béliath :
He's always liked women with a lot of confidence and the ease with which you imposed yourself on the manor was impressive. He's as keen to obey you without argument as he is to give you a bit of a hard time to see what you'll do to put him in his place.
He quickly noticed that he was getting lots of presents from you. He feels spoilt and precious and the more gifts you give him, the more he feels he could melt with happiness. You even gave him clothes from the biggest luxury brands. He was so happy when you told him he could take any clothes he wanted from the shop. You spent an astronomical amount of money in a single evening. He even showed off what you'd bought him to everyone in the manor.
He feels horribly charmed when you invite him to eat in a fancy restaurant. He spends a lot of time making himself look good before every date. Of course, he doesn't doubt that he's naturally beautiful, but a little make-up and perfume can only make him even more so.
He clearly doesn't mind being so spoilt, and there's no doubt he's taking advantage of it when he insists you take him shopping in the city's most chic boutiques, or when he tells you with an unhappy expression that he'd love to have that pretty gemstone bracelet. Can you resist those pretty eyes? It's very hard to resist, because Beliath is totally into you and has very quickly understood how to make you give in to his every whim.
He's always simpering in front of you, giving you longing looks and playing with his hair as he looks at you. Is he ready to dance for you? Of course he is! He'll do the most sensual and sexy dances for you. He knows his body inside out and knows how to show it off to your advantage - after all, he's not half an incubus for nothing.
He brags a little (a lot) about your relationship and when Ethan points out that you're his Sugar Mommy, he doesn't even deny it. You totally are, and he's proud to be your Sugar baby. And who wouldn't be, you look absolutely perfect together.
Ivan :
Your self-confidence and assertiveness frightened him. He was always under the impression that you were going to argue with him about something, especially at the beginning. You express yourself well and with confidence and you manage to impose yourself with disconcerting ease, it seems so easy and obvious to you. Whereas he stammers and finds it very difficult to give his opinion without lowering his eyes. When he met you, he was so afraid of contradicting you that he simply nodded his head at everything you said.
However, he was really surprised when he saw how kindly you treated him. You seem to believe in him much more than he believes in himself. You buy him nice things, from video games to new clothes, and you've even taken him to several concerts in VIP seats with the chance to meet his favourite singers at the end of the concert. He's never felt so pampered by anyone.
He wouldn't be able to explain how the two of you ended up as a couple. He really appreciates it though. You always take care of him, the gifts you give him are always just right, as if you knew him by heart, you don't criticise him when he makes mistakes and you even encourage him to do what he wants. You manage to make him regain his self-confidence in a way he wouldn't have thought possible.
At first, he'll just flirt with you, which he always does with a blush, even more so when he sees that it's working on you. The slightest compliment you might make at a time like this makes him drop his eyes in embarrassment. He still doesn't dare believe it when he realises that you're really interested in him.
When it comes to sex. He's a bit afraid of disappointing you at first, so he's reluctant to have sex with you. It's true, you seem to know how to handle everything and he… he doesn't have much experience in this area and he's afraid you won't like it. Once he's reassured, he's much more confident, even if he often needs you to assure him that he's doing things right.
When Beliath tells him that you're his Sugar Mommy, Ivan stammers and blushes before sending Beliath packing. He'd never seen your relationship in this light, but it's quite logical. You offer him everything he asks for and sometimes even things he hasn't dared ask you for. However, it takes him a little time to accept the idea without blushing every time he thinks about it.
Aaron :
You're an impressive woman. You've established yourself in the manor without the slightest difficulty and you've even managed to enforce the housekeeping rota, which can be seen as a miracle in this manor. Aaron is impressed by you; there aren't many people who would dare to stand up to him or contradict him, and yet you dare. There's something seductive about your self-confidence that he finds hard to resist.
He's really surprised at first when you start giving him presents and taking care of him. He's not used to either, but Aaron has to admit that he finds it really nice to be the one being taken care of rather than the one taking care of everyone else. However, he doesn't dare take advantage of it at first, he likes it yes, but he feels a bit guilty about letting you give him such expensive gifts.
The first time you gave him a present it was a magnificent two-handed sword, it was old and in perfect condition, which only made it even more precious. He hesitated for a moment to refuse it, a sword like this is so expensive and he felt a little uncomfortable that you were giving him a gift like this when he had nothing equivalent to give you in return. However, in the end he accepted it like all your other gifts.
The gifts that please him most are never the most extraordinary. More often than not, he enjoys taking a holiday with you, whether it's in a chalet in the mountains or a little hut by the sea.
He's not the most seductive man in the manor, it's not that he doesn't know how to seduce, it's just that he never or rarely thinks about it. So you're always surprised when he hits on you or makes a pass at you, because you've got into the habit of making passes yourself when you want something.
The first time he hears Beliath refer to you as his Sugar Mommy he has no idea what Beliath is talking about, you're neither made of sugar nor are you his mother… He needs a bit more explanation from Beliath to understand what the incubus is getting at. Aaron may have had partners before you, but he's never had a relationship like this one. But he appreciates it because he's never had the impression of being so precious and wanted by anyone.
Raphaël :
Raphaël was very impressed by your self-confidence and your ability to assert yourself whatever the situation. He knows that it's not always easy to give your opinion, especially when it runs counter to that of others. But you've quickly managed to get everyone to respect you, even Vladimir, which given his character is no mean feat.
He was quickly charmed by you. You have to admit that Raphaël loves being the centre of attention. So when he sees that you seem only interested in him and that you shower him with gifts and little attentions, he's ecstatic. After all, you give him the most beautiful works of art on the market without the slightest hesitation, and you take him to the opera so often. How could he not be happy?
The only thing that matters is that you look after him, whether by buying him gifts or giving him your time. He enjoys it, of course, he's the centre of all your attention, so why shouldn't he? This even makes him a little fussy sometimes when he wants something, not enough to be unpleasant but enough to look like a sulky princess. He comes to you looking unhappy, mumbles a bit, until you ask him what he wants or what's wrong.
Raphaël knows how to be seductive and doesn't hesitate to use his charms to please you after all, he also likes to please you. He gives you his most charming smiles, clings to you whenever he gets the chance and kisses your hands. What's more, he knows his body pretty well, which is a considerable advantage, and he knows exactly what to do to satisfy his partner.
He needs a bit of an explanation when Ethan teases him that you're his Sugar Mommy (and he even manages to make Ethan uncomfortable by asking him questions with an innocent air). He's very happy with your relationship and he wouldn't trade it for the world, after all, he loves being treated like a precious little thing and he's not going to complain about that with you.
Ethan :
Your assurance and self-confidence have thrown him off balance. Usually, he scares people a bit with his abrupt way of speaking and his aggressiveness. But not you, it didn't affect you in the slightest and you never hesitated to put him in his place when he crossed the line with you. It was impressive and he appreciated it in a way, even if he wouldn't venture to say it out loud.
He soon noticed that you were behaving differently towards him. You gave him gifts, often expensive ones, without even considering what Vladimir wanted. For example, you gave him a powerful computer so he could play all the video games he wanted, a portable phone and a big television. You've even subscribed him to the best scientific medical journals in existence.
At first, he felt a little embarrassed by the whole thing. Like, what do you want? Not everyone gives presents without asking for anything in return. But you didn't ask for anything, you just told him that you loved him a lot and that you were happy to show it by giving him presents.
Little by little, he gets used to it and tries to flirt with you and seduce you too. He has to admit that it's not unpleasant to be the centre of someone's attention. He's still sometimes a bit uncomfortable, especially when you give him a magnificent gift in front of others. It's not that he doesn't like it, but he'd prefer to keep it between the two of you.
He knows how to use his body to please you and he's pretty confident in himself and his abilities in this regard. He always wants to please you when you have sex. That's important to him.
When Beliath jokes that you're his Sugar Mommy, Ethan denies everything. It's not really the case, is it?… Well, maybe a little. He finds it hard to accept the idea, he really likes your relationship, but he feels a bit embarrassed whenever he thinks about it. He certainly didn't get into a relationship with you for all the presents you give him, of course he's happy to receive presents. He'd never felt so precious and loved by someone before, but even without a gift from you, he'd treasure the relationship.
Neil :
He was quickly attracted by your self-confidence, without really understanding why or where this feeling came from. You always seem to know what you want, you impose yourself in discussions with disconcerting ease and you even manage to convince your interlocutors without using your vampire powers. It's impressive and seductive for him.
In a way it's rather strange for him, as much as he appreciates being showered with gifts and getting everything he wants easily, he doesn't really understand why you're doing this and he's a bit suspicious. After all, people rarely give things without asking for something in return. It takes a little time for him to let his guard down with you and no longer have the impression that you're going to try to trick him in one way or another. However, it works little by little and he accepts the gifts you give him more and more.
For years he was used to being treated like a god, he was a king after all and he easily had everything he wanted, but it's not the same with you. Before, people gave him gifts just to get back into his good graces… or because they didn't really have a choice, it wasn't him as a person that mattered but the things people could get from him. You give him what he wants just to please him.
Even though he was very much surrounded as king, he never felt that he really mattered to anyone. Your attentions to him and your gifts give him the impression that you really mean something to him, after all you seem to know him and listen to him well enough to always manage to give him gifts that he likes.
Little by little, he will also try to seduce and please you. It's not something he's very good at, he's never really a flirt and he doesn't normally feel comfortable doing that. However, it's different with you, he really wants to please you and really wants you to find him attractive.
The first time someone refers to you as his Sugar Mommy, he has no idea what the other person means. So he asks you as soon as he gets the chance. Your explanation makes him feel a bit uncomfortable but doesn't really bother him, after all, he feels really comfortable with you and if that's what people really think, he doesn't really want to change their minds.
Léandra :
Your assurance and self-confidence won her over immediately. It's a type of personality that she really appreciates. You know how to impose yourself and impress everyone you talk to. Your wealth also tends to open doors for you without the slightest effort and she finds it almost frightening to see what a human being can do with money.
All the gifts and attention you give her flatter her enormously. It's not something she's used to, well… the humans she flirts with offer her a lot of attention but it's not like you. She has the impression that you're really interested in her and it's the first time it's happened to her.
The first time you got her something you simply went to the fanciest, most expensive clothing shop in town and told her to choose whatever she wanted inside. You didn't have to tell her twice and you spent a lot of money in one night just for her.
She feels really happy to be the centre of your attention all the time, and she doesn't hesitate to seduce you to keep it that way. Léandra knows exactly how to seduce you, she's been doing it for centuries and it's become second nature to her to be seductive and attractive. She always makes sure that your gaze never leaves her, so that you only have eyes for her.
When it comes to sex, Léandra knows exactly how to satisfy you. She doesn't want to brag, but she is a succubus after all. She doesn't hesitate to do most of the things you want, there isn't much that bothers her or makes her uncomfortable.
The first time she hears someone refer to you as her Sugar Mommy, it's Ethan who jokes about it. But she didn't hesitate for a second to confirm it. You're totally her Sugar Mommy and she's proud of that. You make a wonderful couple after all and she loves that.
Farah :
Your confidence and self-assurance made a big impression on her the first time she met you. You've managed to integrate yourself into the pack with disconcerting ease and you've easily endeared yourself to everyone. She can't deny that she finds that very attractive in a way, and what's more, you often use your money to keep her pack safe and she appreciates you even more for that.
Farah isn't really attracted by material gifts. However, she won't turn them down, especially when you offer her new shoes for hiking or a new rucksack that's sturdier and more comfortable to carry than her previous one. Nor will she turn down every restaurant date you organise with her, especially if the restaurants are small country inns where she particularly loves to eat.
She's not very good at seduction. Admittedly, it's never been something she's really interested in, and subtlety isn't usually her strong point, when she likes someone, she tells them straight out. However, she does try to be more subtle and more seductive for yourself, but that's rare enough. For example, she'll always dress up when you take her out to dinner, she'll give you flirtatious smiles and playfully run her fingers up and down your arms when you sit down next to her.
She has no idea what it means the first time she hears someone refer to you as her Sugar Mommy. When you explain it to her she finds it a bit strange, but she won't complain. After all, she appreciates that you take care of her and that you try to please her. She doesn't mind that people think it's only in exchange for sex, she can't stop them thinking anyway and she knows very well how you both really feel about each other.

Do you think anyone is left handed? XD ooh, how does their handwriting look like? I have a hc that Aaron has dysleyia and thus never learned how to read fluently. But he still likes to read sometimes x) What are yours?
How do boys write?
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
Here is the headcanon you requested, I hope you enjoy it! ^^
I like the idea of Aaron being dyslexic. What's more, I doubt he learned to read and write as a child. It wasn't common at the time and Aaron was born at a rather complicated time in medieval history (between war, famine and a plague that had been over for a few decades but still had consequences). So I doubt that his little mother would have found the time, money and opportunity to teach him to read and write (although she would have had to know how to read and write herself, and given the literacy rate among women at the time, that's highly unlikely). Aaron must surely have learned to read and write later, perhaps by joining his wolf pack.
Dyslexia would probably not have been detected, not only because the word didn't exist, but also because someone who had difficulty reading and writing wouldn't have seemed surprising.
However, Dyslexia could be detected at the manor. If Ethan has any knowledge on the subject it would be possible. If not, with a dyslexic MC themselves. I think that would be the most coherent because I can't think of any reason why Ethan should have been interested in the Dys disorder.
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
Vladimir :
Vladimir is right-handed, but he can write with his left hand if necessary. His handwriting is not disastrous with his left hand, but it is even slower than when he writes with his right hand.
His handwriting is beautiful and neat, but he writes very slowly, even when he's in a hurry. This is because he needs to concentrate a lot to have a neat handwriting. If he tries to write faster his handwriting tends to become illegible (something his teachers used to reproach him for when he was a child (while asking him to write faster)).
He writes quite small. As a result, he generally doesn't take up much space on a sheet of paper. His letters are very tight and his handwriting tends to lean to the left of the page. He can write in Braille. He learnt it so that he could talk to Raphaël when they were still exchanging letters.
He always signs with his surname, which is rather unusual for a vampire given that the majority of them only sign with their first name, but Vladimir is incapable of not using his, it's far too important to him to give it up.
He is the one in the manor who masters the most different languages, especially when it comes to the written word (this is due to his education). He can easily read and write texts in French, English and Italian, as well as German, Hungarian and Latin. He makes very few spelling mistakes in these languages and is usually the one to go to if someone has a grammatical or spelling question. He can also read Old English. He also reads Russian and Ancient Greek easily (although with a little more difficulty for the latter).
As he is very clumsy, writing requires a lot of concentration (he probably suffers from dyspraxia but has never been diagnosed for this). But that doesn't mean he doesn't enjoy writing. In fact, he loves writing. The other members of the manor have already offered to buy him a typewriter so that he can continue to write his stories with less fatigue, but Vladimir thinks that the quality of his writing is not worth the expense.
Béliath :
Béliath is right-handed. He can write with his left hand if he really needs to, but in that case he writes very badly, much to his dismay. So if he gets injured and can no longer use his right hand, he will usually ask others to write for him (and the best choice is Ivan or Vladimir).
Béliath writes mainly in cursive and his handwriting is quite ancient. He's not particularly aware of it, because that's how his sister taught him to write, several centuries ago, and he's never thought of changing the way he writes, even less since the people at Moondance have been complimenting him on the beauty of his handwriting. It's true that his handwriting is very pretty and rather neat, and the letters are spaced far enough apart not to be unpleasant to read. He sometimes boasts about it to the others at the manor, and it has to be said that he easily has one of the most beautiful handwritings.
He writes rather quickly (no doubt because of the invitations to his parties, which he has to write by hand since Vladimir refuses to buy a computer and a printer), while keeping his handwriting legible for everyone. His handwriting tends to lean to the right of the page.
Its writing is neither too small nor too large. The letters are easy to read and different enough not to be confused with each other when reading.
Like most vampires and supernatural creatures, he signs with his first name. He doesn't really have a surname anyway, unless you consider Son of Asmodeus to be a family name. His signature is rather complex, with a lot of interlacing around his first name, which makes for a rather complicated signature to reproduce.
He can write in several different languages with varying degrees of spelling ability. He has a perfect command of the demonic language his sister taught him, he can write in Latin and his French and English are not bad (if you ignore the fact that he never uses accents in French). As for the rest, he generally speaks them much better than he writes them.
Ivan :
Ivan is right-handed and can't write with his left hand. It's illegible every time. He tries to practise, though, because he thinks it's cool to be able to write well with both hands, but he can't really do it. If he gets injured and can't write with his right hand, he'll try to write with his left before giving up and asking Vladimir or Beliath for help.
His handwriting is simple, not pretty, but perfectly legible for everyone. It's a quality he really appreciates, because Aaron has already told him that he prefers his handwriting to Beliath's. Ivan has rarely been so proud of himself, after all, everyone in the manor recognises that Beliath's handwriting is pretty.
He can write quickly when he needs to, but this affects the legibility of his handwriting, so he avoids doing so most of the time. He also has a tendency to write quite large, which means that he generally needs a lot more paper to write a text than the other members of the manor.
He has asked Vladimir and Raphaël to teach him to write and read in Braille. He still wants to be able to communicate with Raphaël, even if he leaves the manor, and he would like to be able to read the little stories that Raphaël writes himself and not always have to ask Raphaël to read them for him. He still has a bit of trouble reading quickly, but he's getting better at it, although writing in Braille is still very difficult for him.
He has kept the signature he had before his death, so he continues to sign with his surname, signing with his first name seems strange and… unpleasant. It's not that he doesn't like his first name, but he thought he'd be using his family name signature for decades to come, and having to give it up so soon is still too painful for him.
He can only write in French, although Vladimir persists in trying to teach him at least English (at first Vladimir wanted to teach him Latin). Ivan makes relatively few spelling mistakes (which he's proud of, given that Ethan makes more spelling mistakes than he does in French).
Aaron :
Aaron is normally left-handed, but at the time he was born it was very much frowned upon. So he was forced to learn to use his right hand to work, write and fence, which didn't help his handwriting, which was already difficult to read, and he was much more awkward using his right hand to fight with a sword. Today, he has stopped using his right hand for writing and fencing and has become much more skilful.
He had to concentrate to achieve a beautiful handwriting. The shapes of his letters are simpler than Beliath's because he favours ease of reading over beauty. He also writes quite slowly and never tries to write faster. He knows that writing faster only makes his text more illegible.
Like most supernatural creatures, Aaron signs with his first name. His signature is quite simple, and he sees no point in trying to embellish it with interlacing or lines. For him, it's a waste of time and doesn't fit in with his idea of a signature that should remain legible. After all, with all the interlacing that Beliath puts around his first name, he sometimes finds it hard to read his signature.
Aaron speaks far more languages than he writes, particularly Elvish, and is the only member of the manor to do so. He has a tendency to make a lot of spelling mistakes, but in his defence, between language changes and spelling reforms, he never knows where to turn. He barely has time to understand a spelling rule before humans are happy to change it straight away. He only spells Spanish. For the rest, he always asks Vladimir.
Despite the difficulties, Aaron loves to write and read poetry. Along with Raphaël, he probably owns the largest number of poetry collections. However, he is quite precise about the books he looks for: the text must not be too small and the lines must be spaced far enough apart to be pleasant to read. That's one of the reasons why he doesn't really like Vladimir's old books: the writing is too small and he has a hard time distinguishing between the lines.
Raphaël :
Raphaël is totally ambidextrous, but as a child he was left-handed. His parents insisted that he write with his right hand, but he didn't really want to, so as soon as they weren't watching him he would write with his left hand again. He eventually learned to use his right hand for writing and fencing, but this was only to surprise people who thought he was only left-handed.
When Raphaël was writing in cursive, he loved writing poetry, especially for Margarita and Alessio, who regularly received poetry from Raphaël. He still loves to write, but now he uses a slate and stylus to write in Braille. In fact, he always carries a slate and stylus with him in case he needs to write down an idea somewhere other than his bedroom or the library. The problem is that he always ends up forgetting the paper somewhere.
He found Braille much easier to learn to read than to learn to write. This is because to write braille text, you have to write it the other way round, as the dots are made on the back of the page. It wasn't at all instinctive at first and he got it wrong more than once. Now he's quite happy to be teaching Ivan to write in Braille.
He always signs with his first name and his signature hasn't changed much, but it's still complex to reproduce. There is a lot of interlacing around his first name and the capital R is huge compared to the other letters.
He likes to exchange messages with Vladimir and Ivan, as only the three of them can read them, they usually use them to prepare surprises for the others or to complain that so-and-so has forgotten to clean up again or that Ethan keeps slamming doors.
Raphaël is not bad at spelling and grammar, not as good as Vladimir, but unlike Vladimir, he doesn't read grammar books for pleasure. He can speak more languages than he can read and write. But he reads and writes easily in English, Latin, Italian and French.
He reads a lot, and is one of the biggest readers in the manor. When he first arrived, he only had Braille books, which limited his reading possibilities because they were big books and didn't always cover the subjects that interested him. The arrival of Ivan, introduced him to audio books. He listens to a lot of them now, especially romance novels, and loves the fact that he can listen to books while lying comfortably in bed or cooking.
Ethan :
Ethan is left-handed and he really can't write with his right hand. It has to be said that it never occurred to him to try, and his parents never tried to force him to write with his right hand either. If he gets injured and can no longer write with his left hand, he always asks Beliath to write for him.
Ethan's handwriting is not legible. His "a's" look like "e's" or "o's", his "u's", "i's" and "n's" also look very similar, he never dots his "i's", so they can also be mistaken for "l's", and when he writes in French, he doesn't use the slightest accent, whereas he does in Finnish. It's an ordeal for everyone in the manor to reread what he's written, and Aaron doesn't even try anymore. The only one who manages to read it is Beliath.
He writes very small, which doesn't make it easy to read his handwriting, and he also writes quite quickly. He doesn't like writing anyway, his texts are full of abbreviations and drawings to speed things up, and he's the only one who can decipher the notes he takes. If he can do maths for the sake of doing maths, sitting down to write is an ordeal for him. He doesn't have the patience for it.
Like most vampires, he signs with his first name, a habit he picked up fairly recently after arriving at the manor. His signature is rather simple, with few lines and no interlacing, he framed it with just two lines. The main thing for him was that it was quick to make.
He is quite good at spelling, although his handwriting is not very legible. He writes and reads texts easily in Finnish, English, German and French. He can also read a simple text in Latin… if he has no choice, really, no choice.
He has no idea why everyone finds his handwriting difficult to read. He finds that what he writes is always perfectly legible.
Neil :
Neil is right-handed. He can write with his left hand, he even writes quite well, but he doesn't feel comfortable with it at all. So he will always write right-handed unless he really has no choice.
He's always had a nice handwriting, and that's even truer now that writing has become easy and enjoyable. Before, writing wasn't really something that could be described as enjoyable, given the difficulty of the task. He generally prefers to use a beautiful fountain pen for writing, and doesn't hesitate to buy the most expensive ones. He always has one with him in a small box and several in his desk drawers, and tends to change fountain pens according to his mood.
He always writes in a cursive script that looks rather ancient. There is a lot of curl, especially in the capital letters. His letters are easy to distinguish from one another and the words are spaced far enough apart not to give the impression that the text is cramped. His handwriting always leans very slightly to the right.
His signature is elegant and simpler than his usual handwriting. He always signed with his first name.
He has the impression that the rules of spelling and grammar are constantly changing, as are the meanings of words. He tries to follow them, though, because he doesn't like making mistakes, but he gets tired of constantly having to unlearn what he's learned.
The language he knows best is still Irish, and although he has completely lost the habit of speaking Old Irish, he can still read it easily, as well as Middle Irish and Modern Irish.
He also reads and writes in many other languages without difficulty. The languages he knows best apart from Irish are: English, Greek and Ancient Greek, Latin, French, as well as German, Italian, Spanish and Scottish Gaelic. He can also read and follow a simple discussion in Arabic, Mandarin and Russian. To his dismay, knowing so many languages is more of a problem than anything else, and he tends to switch languages when he can't find the right word in the one he spoke before, which means he loses most of the people he's talking to.
Léandra :
Léandra is left-handed. However, she can write with her right hand if she needs to. Before teaching Beliath to write, she had never written with her right hand. She forced herself to write with her right hand, seeing that it was the one her little brother used all the time; she wanted it to be easier for him to copy her movements that way.
She doesn't really take care of her handwriting. However, if she forces herself, she can have very pretty handwriting, but it's not something that interests her. For her, writing has to be practical before it's pretty; she writes to get a message across or to give information, so she doesn't really see the point of trying to turn it into a work of art.
Léandra is used to writing fast and big. She doesn't think writing should take up too much of her time. In fact, she's never understood how her little brother could enjoy spending so much time writing beautiful letters.
She always signs with her first name and her signature is quite complex. There's a lot of interlacing that surrounds her, like a shield around her signature.
She is quite good at spelling, having taught Beliath to read and write in several different languages, including the demonic one.
She is fluent in several different languages, written and especially spoken. She can write and read demonic, English, Italian and Latin texts with ease. For the rest, she much prefers an oral discussion. This is not to say that she would be unable to write in other languages, just that she sees no point in learning their spelling if she can manage in an oral discussion.
Farah :
Farah is right-handed, but she can write with her left hand if she has problems. However, this affects the quality of her writing, which is harder to read.
Her handwriting is simple but neat. Her brother taught her to write, shortly after they left home. She's happy to be able to read and write, of course, but writing has never been an activity she's been keen on: sitting down for several minutes to write a letter always seems horribly boring to her. Whereas reading, may not be her favourite thing to do, but she'll never turn down a new book, especially a fantasy one.
Her letters are mainly in block letters, as she finds cursive writing too time-consuming. She generally writes fairly large and fairly quickly.
Her signature is very simple: she signs only with her first name, without adding the slightest line or interlacing around it. She clearly doesn't see the point and doesn't want to spend any more time signing than she has to.
As she has travelled a lot with her pack, she speaks and reads a lot of different languages, but this is less the case when it comes to writing. In any case, she doesn't always have the necessary writing materials with her and she always loses her notepads or pens when she does have them. She can write Latin and Spanish fairly easily, but the rest is much more complicated. She rarely masters the written word in other languages, even though she can read them. For example, she can read texts in English, Italian and French without being able to write in those languages. And although she can hold a discussion in Arabic, Swedish and German, she is unable to read or write a text in these languages.

Hi! Could you write some headcannons of the vampire boys with an aromantic asexual MC (In case if you don't know what that means, aromantic asexuals are people who don't experience romantic and sexual attraction)? Have a nice day/evening!
MC is Aromantic and Asexual :
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
Here is the headcanon you requested, I hope you enjoy it! ^^
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
Vladimir :
Vladimir listened very carefully as you explained aromanticism and asexuality. He had no trouble understanding what you were talking about, even though he had never met anyone who described themselves as you. He assumes this is simply because the term didn't exist in his day.
In the end, your explanations leave him wondering. He has the impression that he's on the verge of understanding something about himself and at the same time he's afraid to delve into the question. He knows he's not aromantic, that's a certainty for him, but asexual… He'd like to ask you more questions to understand better, but he's afraid of disturbing you or making you feel uncomfortable, so he says nothing until he feels confident enough to broach the subject with you.
When he does, you spend a long time discussing the subject together and when you talk to him about demisexuality he suddenly feels like he understands something about himself that he never did before. Putting a word to it wasn't vital for him, but knowing why he feels so different from the other members of the manor on this subject is a great relief to him.
Because he knows it's important to you and he wants you to feel comfortable and safe in his mansion, he doesn't want anyone to bother you with it. That's pretty easy, because everyone wants you to feel at home in the manor. He's also happy to count you among his friends. It's not always easy to make new friends, especially when you're a taciturn vampire who hardly ever leaves his house. He'll be happy to read with you or even cook with you (if you're not afraid he'll ruin every dish he prepares).
If you're uncomfortable with sex, you won't have any problems with him because he never talks about it and avoids the subject as much as possible. In any case, it's not a topic of conversation he considers polite, and it also makes him uncomfortable. He'll even be happy not to be the only one bothered by it, He'll probably find it easier to convince the others not to talk about it in front of you both like that, because despite her best efforts, Aaron, Beliath and Ethan tend to forget that talking about sex isn't something everyone feels comfortable with.
Béliath :
He was already familiar with aromantism and had heard of asexuality. This is the advantage of living among the new generations more often than others. Béliath is more easily aware of current affairs. So he doesn't need much explanation when you talk to him about it, he's even rather happy that you feel comfortable enough with him to talk to him about it, after all, he's an incubus.
He won't pester you with questions on the subject. He already knows enough about the subject not to need to ask you questions, plus he knows it's a personal matter and he doesn't want to be intrusive, well, any more than he already is when he leans over your shoulder to find out what you're reading or asks you what cream/shampoo/shower gel you're using.
He's delighted to be able to count you among his friends. He doesn't have many, apart from the members of the manor, and it's always nice to have a new friend. He often invites you to the Moondance so that you can go out and have fun, or to the SPA if you prefer quieter activities.
He stands up for you if people dare to criticise you or try to make you feel abnormal. He won't stand for it, not feeling sexual or romantic attraction doesn't make you a monster and it doesn't make you strange either. You shouldn't be forced to justify yourself or have others judge your friendships as less important.
If sex makes you uncomfortable, he won't talk about it in your presence, or at least he'll try not to. In fact, out of Beliath, Aaron and Ethan, he makes the most effort not to make you feel uncomfortable. He might have a bit of trouble at first because he's not at all taboo on the subject, but as he's already making an effort not to make Vladimir feel uncomfortable, it won't take him long to get used to doing the same with you.
Ivan :
Ivan doesn't really need an explanation when you first talk to him about it, he knows what aromanticism and asexuality are. In fact, he understands perfectly well what you tell him about it, and he's ready to help you explain it to others if you need him to (after all, some people's old age doesn't always help them understand things easily). He promises to help you if you ever need help explaining asexuality and aromanticism to the other members of the manor, and he's even prepared to explain it to them for you if you want him to.
He won't overwhelm you with a ton of questions either. He's already pretty well informed and, above all, he knows that it's something personal and he certainly doesn't want to make you feel uncomfortable. The only thing he'll ask you is whether hearing about sex makes you uncomfortable or whether it doesn't bother you. He'll adapt to what you tell him because he doesn't want you to feel uncomfortable when you talk to him. And if it makes you uncomfortable, he'll try to convince Aaron, Ethan and Beliath not to talk about it in your presence. The three of them don't really have any taboos about it and it's a subject that can come up easily in the manor, especially if they're together in the same room and they're bored (much to Vladimir's annoyance).
He's never considered friendships less important than love relationships, so he appreciates being able to consider you as one of his friends. You spend a lot of time together, whether it's discussing a video game or a film, or going to the cinema or a funfair. These are really enjoyable times for Ivan, and he's always looking forward to the next outing you'll be able to take together or the next video game test you'll be doing.
On his way back from a manga convention, he gave you two little key rings in the colours of the Asexual flag and the Aromantic flag in the shape of a little ghost.
Aaron :
He has a bit of trouble understanding what you're talking about at first, the terms you use seem a bit vague and complicated, he doesn't feel like he's heard the words before. However, after a few explanations, everything becomes clearer and he understands what you're saying much better.
He doesn't ask you any questions on the subject, but he's willing to discuss it with you if you come and talk to him about it. He's a bit surprised when you tell him that some people think that Aromanticism and Asexuality are an invention of the modern world. Admittedly, he has had difficulty understanding the terms, but he has known many people over the centuries who describe themselves in the same way as you, without having the words to define themselves.
He likes to think of you as one of his friends, and friendship is just as important to him as a romantic relationship. Most of the time you go for walks in the forest together, and he particularly likes going round the lake with you, especially in autumn when the fog rolls in around the lake. You usually talk a lot at these times, and they're very pleasant outings. He's always looking forward to the next time you spend together.
He can't stand it when anyone criticises you for being asexual or aromantic. He always comes to your defence when he hears people doing it, you're not abnormal or a freak and the fact that people might think that makes him really angry.
However, he finds it a little harder than Beliath to understand that talking about sex can make other people feel uncomfortable. It's a subject that comes naturally to him and he's always talked about it with just about everyone, whatever the era, however, he will make an effort to remember not to talk about it in front of you if it bothers you.
Raphaël :
He understands asexuality easily, but aromanticism with more difficulty, not to say not at all. But Raphaël falls in love so often and so easily that it worries everyone at the manor. He asks you a few questions about it, without being too intrusive, because he doesn't want to make you feel uncomfortable. But he needs more explanation to understand what you mean by Aromantism. Once he's understood, he'll leave you alone on the subject (however, don't expect him never to tell you about the love stories he loves to read, no one has ever managed to shut him up about that in the manor).
He likes being your friend and doesn't need much more to appreciate you or to enjoy spending time with you. Raphaël is rather demonstrative with his feelings, whether in words or deeds. He often tells you that you mean a lot to him and that he likes to spend time with you, whether reading or just chatting. He considers your friendship to be something very precious and he often tells you so.
He's really shocked when you tell him that certain people consider you abnormal because you're aromantic and asexual. He's even more than shocked, he's angry. People who think like that must be stupid for him, there's no other possible explanation. He assures you that he will defend you if he hears anyone criticising you.
If you don't like hearing about sex, you're safe with Raphaël too. It's a subject he generally avoids out of politeness, and as he spends a lot of time with Vladimir, he understands quite easily that it can make people uncomfortable. Even if that doesn't stop him talking about it when he's alone with Beliath, Ethan or Aaron.
Ethan :
He understands quite easily what you're talking about. Like Beliath, he spends a lot of time at Moondance, so he's already heard a lot about Aromanticism and Asexuality, and he's often talked to people who were, so it's nothing new to him.
As he already knows what aromanticism and asexuality are, Ethan doesn't really need an explanation to understand what you mean, so he doesn't ask you about it and leaves you alone.
He's happy to count you among his friends. Friendship is important to him, especially since he saw all his so-called friends leave him as soon as he revealed he was a vampire. The fact that you're friends is important to him, and he enjoys spending time with you, whether it's inviting you to the Moondance or shooting practice with him. He also often invites you to go to the cinema with him, he loves going to see crime films and will be really happy to discuss the plot with you.
He will defend you without hesitation if he hears people criticising you because of your aromanticism or asexuality. He can't stand the idea that people might think you're abnormal or strange for that, you're neither abnormal nor strange and you're even less sick. Seriously, he won't let anyone criticise you in his presence, it's out of the question.
If sex makes you uncomfortable, he tries to remember not to talk about it in your presence. This isn't always successful, especially at first, as it's a topic of discussion he often brings up when Beliath and Aaron are in the room with him. However, as he doesn't want to make you uncomfortable, he'll make an effort to remember it and not make you uncomfortable by talking about it in your presence.
Neil :
Neil didn't have much trouble understanding, he'd never met anyone who defined themselves as Aromantic or Asexual simply because those words didn't exist in his day, but he'd met plenty who defined themselves as you do. He himself is totally incapable of feeling sexual or romantic attraction for someone he doesn't know well and doesn't really like before.
After all, he still remembers perfectly the day he realised that his brothers were really falling in love when they talked about love at first sight. Before that he thought his brothers were just making fun of him, he didn't understand how they could fall in love with someone he'd just met. It was the same thing with the books he read, all the descriptions of love at first sight and the sensations that accompanied it left him totally sceptical for a long time. For him, it was just a slightly dramatic exaggeration to get the story moving quickly and certainly not reality.
He's quite happy to be able to talk to someone who understands better what he's feeling. After all, it's not always easy living in a world where love is put on a pedestal above all other relationships. He totally stopped counting the number of friends who'd dumped him overnight just because they'd found love. It even saddened him a little at first, but he eventually got used to the idea.
More often than not, when he spends time with you, the two of you will go for a walk in the old part of town or look for a beautiful spot where you can admire the landscape and the stars while chatting about the things you like.
If sex makes you uncomfortable, he won't talk about it with you. It's already a subject he doesn't usually broach, so it doesn't take the slightest effort not to talk about it. He'll also make sure that nobody bothers you about it.
Léandra :
She immediately understood when you told her about it. Especially aromanticism, she's considered herself to be demiromantic since she first heard about it several years ago. She also understands asexuality rather easily, for a succubus she's on the asexuality spectrum, after all, unlike her fellow succubi, she doesn't feel sexual attraction for everyone.
She likes to discuss this subject with you, especially to compare the differences in standards between succubi and humans. Among succubi, Léandra is considered abnormal and strange, see much nastier words when she's not there to defend herself. When she talks to you she feels seen and understood in a way she hasn't felt for a long time, she hopes you enjoy her talks too and she does everything she can to make sure you do.
She likes to think of you as a friend. She doesn't have many friends among the succubi, so it's very nice for her to be able to count you as a friend. As her brother Léandra is very loyal in her friendships, she really enjoys spending time with you, whether it's going out to nightclubs or concerts.
She'll come to your defence without hesitation if someone criticises you for being aromantic or asexual. She's not afraid to argue with people and she loves putting idiots in their place - All you have to do is give Léandra a sign and she'll make that person want to hide in a mouse hole and never come out again.
If sex makes you uncomfortable, she really tries not to talk about it. This isn't easy for her, because by living with succubi, she's used to it being a perfectly normal topic of discussion, so she sometimes forgets at first that the subject makes you uncomfortable. But, she adapts fairly quickly, though, mainly because she wants you to feel comfortable with her.
Farah :
She listened to you when you told her about it and once you explained the terms she understood perfectly what you meant. In the course of her life, Farah has met many people who describe themselves as you do, and many of them have even lived with the pack before moving on to make a life for themselves elsewhere.
She doesn't need much explanation and doesn't ask you any questions about it. The only thing she asks you is whether hearing about sex makes you uncomfortable or whether it doesn't bother you. If it does bother you, she'll make sure that the members of the pack don't talk about sex in your presence so as not to make you feel uncomfortable. This isn't very difficult, as all the members of the pack want you to feel safe and comfortable with them.
Friendship is important in a pack, and Farah doesn't consider friendships to be any less important than romantic relationships. She is therefore very happy to consider you as a friend. She loves spending time with you, whether it's inviting you for a walk in the forest or going hunting with her.
This is also the case for the other members of the pack, who are happy to have you as part of theirs. He makes sure you feel accepted in the pack, as if you were part of a big, close-knit family.
Farah won't let anyone criticise you for being aromantic or asexual. She will stand up for you no matter what and the rest of the pack will stand up for you too, you are part of the pack and no one has the right to try and make you feel uncomfortable or hurt your feelings.

MC is afraid for the boys and the girls (part 2) :
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
Here is the second part of the Headcanon: MC is afraid for the boys (patt 1). ^^
(Neil is a bit different from the others, I'm assuming the MC was in a couple with Neil before he was abducted by Eloise's parents).
I hope you enjoy it! ^^
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
Vladimir :
To say that you never worried about Vladimir would be a lie. He's not very tall, he's not very strong, he's rather clumsy and he clearly doesn't have the strongest health in the manor. But at first your concern was reasonable, it didn't prevent you from sleeping or relaxing. You could be away from the manor for several hours without worrying about him and be in a different room without wondering if he was in danger. That changed after the fight with Neil, and even though you're safe now that Neil's gone, you can't seem to calm down.
The fear of losing him has started to occupy every waking moment. Even though you know that this fear is irrational and that Vladimir is safe, it doesn't change anything. On the night of the fight, you were in the front row to see that Vladimir is not capable of fighting, and worse still, compared to his housemates, he seems much more psychically manipulable. Neil was able to get the better of him so easily and now you're worried that others might do the same. What's more, he still doesn't know how to fight, you're not very good at it either, and he can only go out on moonless nights, which would greatly complicate any escape you might have to make.
Little by little, the fear you felt only took on a little more importance. Sometimes you wake up in the middle of the day fearing that someone wants to hurt him, and you pull him against you in bed to listen to his heartbeat and feel his breathing. Leaving the manor and going out on your own to walk around the town seems like a bad idea, so you hardly ever go out so that you're always with him in case of trouble.
Vladimir, for his part, doesn't really know how to reassure you. He knows that, objectively speaking… well, he's not really capable of fighting, well, he could defend himself and try to get away, but a real fight?! He could laugh about it if it wasn't so dramatic. He didn't die in the woods fighting Neil because he's sure Neil didn't want to kill him that night and that's what saved his life. He also knows that even if he'd be prepared to die to defend you, there's no way he'd survive a fight to the death. Ethan has tried to teach him to shoot, but between the noise of the gun and the fact that he hasn't managed to hit the target once, it's been a fiasco. Aaron still insists that he learn fencing, but he's pretty sure that a child could disarm him.
So he's not going to complain that you want to be with him all the time. Nor does he feel reassured when you're not together. He fears that someone will come after you again. If you go out on the town for any reason, he gets really anxious, Aaron has already been forced to argue with him to keep Vladimir in the manor.
He's sleeping even worse than before and Vladimir didn't think that was possible. You wake him up several times with your nightmares and anxieties and he really doesn't know how to reassure you, but when you don't wake him up, he wakes you up. You haven't had a full day's sleep for several months, and it shows, because you've fallen asleep several times next to each other on the sofa in the living room. At first, the others complained a bit, but they stopped, as you only seem to be able to sleep when they're awake.
You didn't think it was a problem at first. You had every right to be anxious after what had happened? Anyone else would have been, you nearly lost your partner! Other people exaggerate when they tell you and Vladimir that your anxiety is abnormal, they don't understand because they're not in your situation. They don't make your nightmares and they're not the ones reassuring their partner every day that you're safe as long as you're together.
But the situation is getting worse, much to the concern of your flatmates. You don't go out of the manor at all any more and you're like screwed together. It's become very rare for you not to be in the same room together, and what's worse, You can't stand a stranger coming near Vladimir and it's the same for him, who can't stand to see you near someone he doesn't know. After all, neither you nor he know what the stranger might want and the idea of him attacking your partner turns both your stomachs, so you spend Beliath's evenings hiding in your room to avoid all the risks.
It takes several months before you realise that the situation is really becoming a handicap, despite the remarks of the other boys, and it takes another month before you talk about it with each other. It's you who broaches the subject first, because Vladimir doesn't know how to talk to you about it.
The discussion lasted all night and part of the following night, you talked about the battle again, a lot. Vladimir insisted on his guilt for having almost hurt you and for not having spoken about Neil earlier. In the end, you promised each other that you would make an effort, at least to tell the others. Your first objective is to return to the Beliath party, trying not to feel threatened by the guests. It's easier said than done, but you have no doubt that, with the help of your flatmates, you'll get there in the end.
Raphaël :
You weren't really worried at first. Raphaël seemed to you to be a strong man, perfectly capable of defending himself. He had shown you his fencing prowess on several occasions and, despite the fact that he's not very tall and rather thin, you know that he's still quite muscular. You also thought he was intelligent and thoughtful enough not to put himself in stupid danger. But, after a while, you began to question these last two ideas.
First, he told you about his transformation, the stupid idea he had of going alone, into dangerous neighbourhoods, at a time when crime was much more common than it is now, in the middle of the night, to look for a vampire who would agree to transform him, at a time when vampires committed more bloodbaths than anything else. A long cold sweat slides down your back as he tells you. It's the most irresponsible behaviour you've ever heard of, and he doesn't have a problem with it, he's even telling you about it as a romantic act to live eternity with Margarita. You knew, of course, that your partner sometimes confused reality with romance novels, but you didn't think it was that bad.
Then there was the duel with Aaron, a stupid duel in which Aaron slashed his cheek. The reasons for the duel, his recklessness, none of it made sense, but Raphaël was proud of himself and his stupidity. Then there was the whole thing with Alessio and his attempt to solve the problem on his own without telling you or the others, followed by the duel he had with Alessio, which you had great difficulty stopping.
Since then, you've found it hard not to worry. Raphaël seems to you to be one of the most reckless people in the manor, far ahead of Beliath, who is the one everyone complains about. You get the impression that he doesn't think about the consequences of his actions, that he never sees the danger, whether it's trusting complete strangers or engaging in duels as if he were fighting not with sharp swords but with bread sticks. You understand a little better Vladimir's concern at the idea of leaving Raphaël alone anywhere or with strangers.
When he goes out alone in town, you can't seem to feel reassured. Worst-case scenarios are running round and round in your head, and you're afraid for him. Afraid he won't come back, afraid some stupid idea will pop into his head and he'll put himself in danger, afraid he'll trust any stranger who just seems nice or sympathetic! Of course, you know it's not consistent and Aaron told you that Raphaël wasn't a child and that in the worst case they'd go and get him. But seriously? How could you be reassured knowing the totally reckless risks he took for a woman who subsequently abandoned him alone in England for several years? Or knowing his ability to fight duels as if he didn't risk being mortally wounded in each one!
He doesn't really understand why you're so concerned about his safety. He even feels a little offended by it. He's not a klutz and he's perfectly capable of defending himself. He's survived this far without any problems. When you talk to him about the reasons for your concern, he doesn't understand you. You discuss the subject at length without managing to convince him that he has put himself in danger several times without thinking. Worse, he even thinks that he could have defended himself if the vampire had decided to attack him or that Margarita would have come to his rescue, that the fight in the forest against Aaron was not dangerous and that he would never have lost to Alessio.
You don't know how to tell him that you don't agree with all this, the vampire who transformed him would have been much stronger than him as a human, and for Margarita to come and save him she would have had to know what he was about to do, you can't have friendly fights with sharp swords, it seems obvious (it was even so in the Middle Ages), and accidents happen quickly, especially in a duel to the death!
He's even more offended by your arguments against him, especially as they're all logical and he can't contradict you. But Raphaël won't give up and wants to prove he's right, so he's going to ask the other members of the manor for their opinion. Except for Aaron, who sighs and tells her that he's taken far too many risks by being transformed in this way, but who sees no problem with duels, everyone else agrees with you. Vladimir left the room to try and calm down before returning to explain to Raphaël and Aaron that they were not allowed to have friendly sword duels with sharp swords, Beliath is much more focused on explaining to him that he can't trust just any stranger, Ethan threatens not to treat either him or Aaron if they ever have another duel like this and get hurt, and Ivan is happy for once not to be the one to get told off for his carelessness.
Despite all your arguments, it takes Raphaël a long time to come back to you and tell you that you were right. In the end, he promises to use practice swords the next time he fights Aaron.
Neil :
Your story is a bit complicated, after an argument with your partner you had gone out to get some fresh air and calm down, this wasn't unusual and was what you did whenever you were angry with each other when you came back ready to make up, there was no trace of Neil and your house was turned upside down. You searched the town for a long time on the assumption that he had escaped his attackers, but after several hours of searching and no news from him you began to imagine the worst. After all, there were groups of hunters in the area armed and organised enough to kidnap an ancient without difficulty.
You immediately went looking for him, but it took you years to find him in a different country from the one where he had been abducted. And in what condition? Starving, broken bones, barely able to sit up on his own. You got rid of his captors, of course, what kind of partner would you be if you'd left them alive after what they'd done to him?
You had never worried about him before. Neil was powerful and perfectly capable of defending himself and he had never needed to worry about you for the same reasons. For centuries you had been one of the most powerful vampire couples. But since then your vision of things has changed a lot, humans have been able to beat him, humans have been able to kidnap your partner to experiment on him for years in a filthy cellar. He slept on a time-worn mattress, in blood-stained sheets, tied up, restrained by a straitjacket. His health declined so much that he spent most of his days sleeping, and you had to help him feed himself because he no longer had the strength to do so alone.
You've become extremely wary of strangers, because despite the passing months, your care and your constant efforts, Neil still hasn't recovered. He needs to rest more often than you do, you can't count the number of times he's fallen asleep on your shoulder while you were chatting, his sleep isn't serene either, he often wakes you up because of a nightmare, of course he tries to hide it from you, but you're on the alert all day and don't sleep deeply enough not to hear him, besides you've known him for centuries and he couldn't lie to you, even if he wanted to. So you don't let many people near him, after all, Neil is still a former vampire who took part in wars between vampires and who therefore has a huge list of enemies who might want to take advantage of his situation to take revenge on him.
You also find it very difficult to leave the house where you are staying together. Leaving to go hunting makes you terribly anxious, even if you try hard not to let him notice. His self-image has deteriorated so much that you can't afford to let him think you think he's weak and fragile. You don't think it's weak, in fact, you're just worried that it might happen again, You both thought you were powerful and invincible. And to think that it only took a moment's carelessness to bring it all crashing down scares you more than you care to admit.
For his part, Neil doesn't really know what to think any more. He feels safe under your protection, even more so at the very beginning, when he only needed a few minutes' walk to feel exhausted and almost always your help to get around, or when he was on the verge of an anxiety attack at the mere idea of being locked up somewhere. But he also feels useless and weak; he hasn't thought of himself in those terms for centuries, and more than once he finds himself wondering if he hasn't always been weak. He knows this isn't true, but the state he's in casts a shadow over the way he sees himself. It's even worse when he sees how dependent he has become on you. Your absence distresses him, both because he's afraid something will happen to you and because he's afraid of being used for experiments again. He knows that for the moment he won't be able to defend himself, he doesn't have enough strength left for that.
You don't discuss your concern for a while, in fact you've barely broached the subject of his abduction and the time he spent in the cellar. Still, it weighs on both of you. You sense your partner's constant worry and Neil can't miss yours, especially when you move closer to him while he's asleep to watch over his sleep. You never feel that it's the right time to talk about it, and you don't want to make your partner feel uncomfortable, so you prefer to wait for Neil to make the first move by broaching the subject.
You talk about it one day after being woken up again by your partner, but it's not you who starts the discussion on the subject but Neil. You talked for a long part of the day and then fell asleep without even realising it, and resumed the discussion during the night. You talk a lot about what happened, whether it's you telling him about all the ups and downs of your years spent looking for him, or him telling you what happened while he was a prisoner. You also talk about what you're going to do to help him regain his former strength, while reassuring each other that you'll never let this happen to him or to you again.
Léandra :
It all started with a conflict with another succubus. You were in your hotel room waiting for Léandra to return so that you could go and enjoy the fireworks show that was going to take place that night when you were attacked. You weren't really able to defend yourself because the difference in power between you and the succubus was so great, and you don't dare think what would have happened if Léandra hadn't come to your rescue. She protected you during the fight, but you couldn't do anything to help her. One of her wings was broken, as was one of her arms, and she had numerous deep gashes and scratches all over her body.
Since then, even though you and Léandra have both got better, you can't seem to calm down. The slightest noise, whether in your house or in a hotel, makes you jump. You can't stop your mind imagining another attack, another succubus out to get you and your partner. You clearly didn't have the strength to fight a succubus and you're worried that you'll be a burden to Léandra if you're ever attacked again.
You're a restless sleeper, often waking up with a start after a nightmare, and Léandra has great difficulty calming your fears. You snuggle up to her in bed and you can't sleep unless she's with you. She hugs you, wrapping her wings around you to create a little cocoon of security, but nothing works, and despite all her efforts to try and calm you down, you only manage to fall back asleep through exhaustion.
You also can't stand it when Léandra wanders off or goes out without you. You were attacked once when she wasn't there and you only escaped because she came back in time to save you. Her absence makes you extremely anxious and you look for her as soon as she leaves your field of vision to take refuge close to her. Part of you is afraid you'll annoy her by asking for so much attention, but you can't help it, you're so scared.
You're also worried about her, as the fight was very violent and Léandra was injured. You had to treat her, but you don't know enough about succubi to know whether she was lucky to escape alive or whether Léandra is fighting well. The only thing you can be sure of is that your partner was injured and, knowing what Léandra told you about members of her species, there's a risk of it happening again and you probably won't have the strength to defend her if she ever needs it.
Léandra, for her part, no longer knows how to react to reassure you. Succubi don't usually show their fear, it's a sign of weakness for her species, so she's never learnt how to reassure someone who's scared, well, apart from her little brother when he was a child. What's more, she's also very worried about you, even if she tries not to show it. After all, you couldn't defend yourself and you'd probably have been seriously injured if she hadn't come back in time. She's now a little more stressed when she's not with you to defend you in case of danger.
In a way, she blames herself a little; she knew that once you were in a relationship with her, you'd end up meeting some of her enemies. She's not just anyone, after all: her mother is one of the most powerful succubi.
Léandra doesn't want to talk to you about it at first. She wouldn't know how to broach the subject with you anyway, so she prefers not to say anything so as not to make you feel uncomfortable. But the situation is getting worse, and you're having more and more anxiety attacks at the thought of her leaving you alone, even for an hour, to go shopping in town. In the end, she ends up asking her brother for advice - after all, Beliath has been living with former humans for years, so he must know a little better than she does how to reassure them in case of problems. She has a bit of trouble understanding her brother's advice, and in particular how she's supposed to apply it, but she tries anyway.
Léandra ends up talking to you about it after you've had yet another anxiety attack about not finding it. You talked for a long time, mostly about the fight that had taken place and your concern for your safety and that of Léandra. She tried to reassure you as best she could, promising to teach you how to fight if that would make you feel better.
Farah :
You hadn't been a wolf for long and you still had a lot of trouble transforming simply by wanting to, despite the advice of the pack and Farah. It wasn't too bad though, you were safe in the pack and no one had attacked you yet. According to the older members of the pack, this was perfectly normal, as fights between wolf packs are becoming less and less common.
But it couldn't last forever. You were attacked by a rival pack as you crossed a large forest and were unable to transform. You owe your survival to the fact that the members of the pack and Farah protected you from the attacks of the other wolves.
Since then you haven't been able to calm down. You constantly have the feeling that you could be attacked again and you have the nagging feeling that you're just a burden to the members of your pack, even though they keep telling you that it's perfectly normal not to be able to transform yourself in a stressful situation. Farah is the one who tries hardest to reassure you.
The guilt doesn't leave you, however, and you wake up with nightmares in which your partner dies because of you, or without you being able to do anything to protect her. The only thing that reassures you is Farah's voice beside you and the fact that she's alive and well. You even end up being afraid to sleep and you try to stay awake as long as possible so that you don't have to face your nightmares again. To reassure you, Farah always tries to be at camp when you sleep and to sleep with you as often as possible. It's not always easy, as managing the pack takes up a lot of her time and energy, but she doesn't want to leave you alone with your fear.
You're also worried when Farah leaves the pack to go hunting, although you know that Farah knows how to fight and she fights so well that she's become the leader of your pack. So she's safe to go hunting on her own. You continue to imagine the worst, however, and you insist on accompanying her on the hunt as often as possible. Farah doesn't really feel able to refuse you that, it seems to be the only thing that reassures you. Your concern for her safety doesn't wane, even when the other members of the pack keep telling you that the attack you suffered was just an exception and that you're safe now.
You try to hide your anxiety as best you can, even though you can see you're not succeeding. You're already angry with yourself for not having been able to defend the pack, you don't want to bother them with your fears either, so you keep quiet and keep them to yourself, even though it weighs on you not to tell anyone.
Farah, for her part, no longer knows what to do or say to reassure you. She can see that your constant worry is preventing you from living a normal life; you're constantly on the alert, you're suspicious of the slightest noise, you hardly sleep at all and when you do sleep you're constantly woken up by your nightmares. At first, she didn't want to talk to you about the attack, as it seemed to plunge you into great anxiety every time, but as time goes by, she wonders whether she's doing the right thing. Maybe you need to discuss what happened with her, and maybe you don't for fear of upsetting her.
Farah finally told you about it after one of your nightmares woke her up again. She wants to understand what you're so afraid of and if there's anything she can do to help you feel less afraid. If it's just your inability to fight, then she'll teach you how to fight; if it's something else, she'll help you find solutions so that you can feel safe and well again.

how would they react to MC being an older vampire, older even then Neil, being basically the parental figure to them? like, the mc would try to make vladmir feels better, would try to help rapha to deal with grieving and would teach ivan to hunt ?
platonical relationship ykyk :p
MC is an older vampire :
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
Here is the headcanon you requested, I hope you enjoy it! ^^
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
You're one of the original vampires and you're a very old vampire, so old that you were present at the Trojan War and have survived all the wars between vampires since your birth without difficulty. You've travelled the world and met many other supernatural creatures. After your travels, you've looked for a comfortable place to settle down, a quiet little corner away from humans, if possible, but with other vampires because you don't really like solitude and you enjoy communicating with your fellow creatures, especially the younger ones who, unlike the older ones, still marvel at many little things.
You arrived in this manor shortly after Vladimir. The young vampire was already living there with Neil. You didn't understand why the older one, who was injured to boot, was locked up in a dark, damp cellar, as it was clearly not good for his recovery, so you moved him to a room upstairs.
Later you met Aaron, a friend of Vladimir's, the poor guy had nowhere else to go anyway and you certainly wouldn't have let him live outside. You were more than happy for him to join you.
Then Beliath arrived, a very energetic and teasing young man, half incubus. His much sunnier personality made the nights more eventful. He invited one of his friends to join him shortly afterwards, Ethan, he had a difficult character of course, a bit like being in an eternal teenage crisis, but that didn't bother you. You know your young peers well enough to know that they can be quite temperamental.
Then Raphaël came to live with you. The poor vampire seemed as sad as the stones and his false smile didn't really fool you. You were beginning to run out of room though, after all this is a manor, not a castle. So when Aaron brought Ivan back things got a bit complicated. You gave Ivan your old room after converting the cellar into a sort of suite. You knew that with a bit of work you could turn it into a really nice room, and you weren't wrong.
Your calmness always surprises everyone in the manor, nothing seems to impress you or make you angry. When someone annoys you, you usually just say "Go to your room, you're annoying me" or "Get out of here and don't come back until you're calmer". The surprising thing is that most of the time you manage to get them to obey you.
Vladimir :
Vladimir with Ivan is the one who demands the most attention from you. He can look after himself, of course, but your presence seems to reassure him enormously, so you spend a lot of time with him. The early days were difficult though, both because he could be cold and arrogant, but also because he was terrified of being alone again. As a result, every argument between you ended with a vampire convinced that you were going to abandon him in that horrible mansion. And it was a long time before you managed to reassure him about that. No, you weren't going to leave overnight, yes, you were going to stay with him.
When you arrived, Vladimir seemed like a very sad boy. He was alone in a mansion that was far too big for him (you don't count Neil as company as he hardly spoke to each other and slept a lot). Vladimir was quite thin, with heavy dark circles under his eyes, he always gave you the impression he was about to cry. At best he floated in his clothes, at worst he just looked dirty and worn out. His unhappiness weighed down the atmosphere in any room he passed through, and you spent a lot of time watching him, so worried were you by his constant sadness.
He opened up to you little by little as you talked to him. He told you what had happened to him, his illness, his transformation, his years of wandering, his meetings with Aaron and Raphaël, the death of his mother, his arrival at the manor and the death of the couple he found there. He talked to you mainly about his mother's death and the murder of the former inhabitants of the manor, in fact he was on a loop about it. You must have spent a lot of time reassuring him. Sometimes he was so distressed about the murder of the former residents that he'd wake you up in the middle of the day to tell you that the couple had come back to haunt him.
You ended up letting him sleep with you on certain days when, despite long discussions, he was still far too anxious to go back to bed on his own. You tried lots of things to help him calm down: soft music, plants, books, purify the house, you even bought her a cuddly toy in the hope that it would at least ease her nightmares a little. But it was a long time before he finally started to calm down about it. The arrival of Aaron has made your job a little easier. Vladimir stopped waking you up almost every day and started going to see Aaron instead.
Today, he still follows you around like a duckling that has lost its mother. You're still the first person he comes to for advice, whether on landscaping the garden or on the manor in general. Your approval means a lot to him, and he takes it pretty hard when you disagree with one of his decisions. He's mainly afraid you'll hate him for disagreeing with you, part of him knows it's silly and you're not going to hate him for it, but another part can't help worrying about it.
He also comes to talk to you when he's feeling sad or when he's managed the feat of arguing with several people in the manor in a single night - at times like these, discussions can be lengthy, especially when you have to persuade him to apologise after being unpleasant with someone. You often have to act as an intermediary between him and the others, especially between him and Ethan.
Even though you've assured him on several occasions that you're not planning to leave, he's still afraid of you leaving. When people he doesn't know come to visit you he feels threatened, he's afraid you'll finally decide to leave with them and leave them here. he still needs to be reassured that you regard the members of this manor as your family.
He particularly likes it when you bring him a cup of milk or hot chocolate when he's sad, or when you read to him in the little lounge.
Sometimes you try to persuade him to go out, but it's an uphill battle. He doesn't really feel safe outside the manor and even if you promise that nothing will happen to him he can't really help worrying. However, you sometimes manage to persuade him to go out to the theatre or the opera, he wouldn't feel safe going alone and even if Beliath and Aaron agree to go with him, he doesn't feel right bothering them for that.
Beliath :
Beliath doesn't really need your help in general. He's probably one of the most emotionally stable people in the manor, along with Aaron. He's not really irresponsible, despite what Vladimir is constantly telling you, and he doesn't knowingly put others in danger - in fact, quite the opposite, as he's serious enough to stop Ethan fighting with people at the Moondance or to defend the other members of the manor in the event of a problem. He's a bit reckless at times, of course, but it's nothing really serious or anything you can't sort out easily. After all, you're a very old vampire and you've had far more difficult situations to deal with than a slightly reckless and mischievous vampire.
You knew straight away when he arrived that he was an incubus. This was mainly due to his behaviour towards the other members of the manor: he was always a bit flirtatious, even when his aim wasn't to be flirtatious at all. However, seeing him try to hide it from you was far too amusing for you to tell the others. He didn't seem to want to hurt the other boys in the manor either so you let him. What's more, this only concerned Beliath, and as Aaron didn't feel it necessary to tell you straight away that he was a werewolf, you don't see why Beliath should be forced to reveal his true nature to others.
When they found out, you had to ease the tension between them. Vladimir had taken it into his head to blame Beliath, and Aaron didn't react any better, reproaching him for not revealing that he was an incubus immediately. You had to have a long talk with both of them to make them understand that their reaction was inappropriate, given that Aaron only revealed his werewolf nature to Vladimir and no one blamed him.
You quickly become attached to him. Beliath is always in a good mood, rather like a child or an adolescent. There's not much that seems to wipe the smile off his face, and it's a real pleasure to chat with him when other people's worries are monopolising your mind.
He often comes to see you to try and understand his housemates' reactions better. Even though he tries not to show it, he's become very attached to them (more than an incubus should, according to his sister) and their friendship is something he treasures and doesn't want to spoil. Because he hasn't lived much with humans, he doesn't always understand what it is about his behaviour that upsets Aaron, Raphael, Ivan or Vladimir, especially as Ethan never complains about him. So he comes to you for advice, which he then tries to apply with varying degrees of success. The biggest difficulties he encounters are with Vladimir, he doesn't know what he's doing wrong, but he always ends up offending the aristocrat in one way or another, he really appreciates you explaining to him what Vladimir has taken the wrong way in the discussion.
You let him give you manicures; he loves doing that because it gives him a good excuse to chat to you. After all, he's not going to give you a manicure without talking to you. More often than not, he'll tell you all the gossip he's picked up at the Moondance. But when you're really alone, he mostly talks about the other members of the manor. He's much more concerned about them than his carefree appearance would lead you to believe. It's with you that he discusses his ideas for trying to get Raphael and Vladimir out of the manor.
He also loves it when you go shopping with him (Ethan sometimes goes with him, but the doctor only complains about how long it takes him to choose and try on new clothes and never gives her opinion on her outfits). You sometimes spend several hours shopping, and on more than one occasion you've had to stop him from going way over Vladimir's shopping budget. But you buy him one of the shirts he wanted anyway, you know he's got more than a dozen just like it, but it makes him so happy you can't resist.
Ivan :
Ivan is, along with Vladimir, the one who demands the most of your attention, but he's still young, so the fact that he often needs your help with things that other people think are simple or obvious doesn't surprise you. You also have the advantage of having been around a lot of young vampires, which makes it easier to get on with them. It's not the first time you've had to reassure someone about the upheaval in their daily life caused by becoming a vampire, after all, you've done it many times and you know what to say to reassure them.
You quickly found that the boys were far too brutal with the young man. As you know, young vampires are generally very fragile psychologically, after all, the transformation into a vampire is a big change, even a traumatic one for many, and for Ivan, who has no idea what happened to him before Aaron found him and transformed him, this is even more the case. What's more, someone so young can't do things as well as Aaron, who has passed the 600 year mark. Ivan still has a lot to learn, whether it's about vampires or about life in general - he's barely out of his teens, after all.
After a few weeks of letting the others interact with the young man, you decided to take matters into your own hands. You started by going with Ivan to hunt in Aaron's place, mainly to see if it was as bad as the boys were telling you. And it wasn't nearly as bad as you'd been told. Ivan had great difficulty managing himself, of course, but all young vampires have more or less difficulty, and for Ivan it was mainly due to the fact that his hunts were too far apart in time and to his constant fear of making a mistake and disappointing Aaron.
The fact that he has trouble mastering his vampire powers doesn't surprise you either. After all, he lives safely in the manor, so there's no vital need for him to master them in order to defend himself. In fact, in a way it's a good thing, because it means that times are a lot calmer than when you were born. You've lived through several wars between former vampires, and back then, the least combative young vampires died very early on. It was dangerous to be a young vampire and those who didn't die in battle were often traumatised for years by war and violence. You're pretty happy Ivan doesn't have to go through this.
You do, however, spend time trying to teach him to use his vampire powers properly. Even if he doesn't need them vitally at the moment, knowing how to master them could save his life one day. You explain things gently and go at his pace, so as not to rush him.
It's not always easy to train Ivan, of course, because he's so lacking in self-confidence and always feels like he's making mistakes or doing something stupid, but your constant encouragement helps him gain confidence in his abilities enormously and he progresses much faster with you, probably because you never forget to assure him that you're proud of the effort he's making, even when he fails. He's so happy to feel seen and encouraged by you that he always feels sad when it's not you who accompanies him to training.
Ivan also likes to spend time with you when you're not training him. He'll show you the comics he's reading and tell you the stories of his favourite characters, so much so that you'll know some of them by heart without even having read a single comic about them. He often even asks you to go to the cinema with him to see the latest Marvel film (which sometimes leads to arguments with Ethan, who wants you to go and see the DC films with him).
He'll also show you his favourite video games and he'll be even happier if you agree to play with him, whether you know how to play video games or not. He doesn't mind teaching you how to play some of his games, even if you die several times in a row.
He always comes to you when he's been burnt by the sun while sneaking out during the day. He's far too scared of being shouted at by Aaron or Vladimir to go and see them, and even though he knows you're likely to argue with him, he also knows you won't call him stupid or unconscious, which makes him feel much better.
Aaron :
Aaron generally manages very well on his own. He doesn't ask for much attention from you, as he's lived alone for a long time. However, you do spend a lot of time together, mostly talking about the other members of the manor, what they're doing, how they're doing or what you could do to make them better or happier. Sometimes it makes you feel slightly like single parents at a support meeting.
Underneath his muscles and gruff façade, you quickly realised that Aaron was someone who was very protective of the members of the manor. He takes very badly any threats that might approach them and watches over the safety of the group in the manner of a she-wolf protecting her cubs, which means he gets on quite well with you given that you also seem to want to protect the members of the manor.
Aaron never thought he'd find someone living with Vladimir when he arrived at the manor, well, he's not going to complain given the anguish the younger man seemed to be in it seemed rather positive that you were living with him to look after him. Even though he didn't say it in front of Vladimir so as not to embarrass him, he thanked you for taking care of the aristocrat. He was a little worried about him when Vladimir decided to go off on his own.
You mainly help Aaron to manage the other members of the manor, and it's quite nice for him to have someone to lean on to deal with any problems they may encounter. However, you sometimes have conflicts when you have to deal with problems. Aaron is often too blunt for your liking, and while you don't doubt that this works very well on some people, you know that it doesn't work on everyone and that bluntness tends to put people on edge and on the defensive.
You had to tell him several times to be less rough with Ethan, and fortunately Beliath ended up stepping in to look after the younger boy because Aaron and Ethan would have ended up fighting. Then you had to tell him to ease up on Ivan and to be less direct with Vladimir and Raphaël.
In a way you understand Aaron's point of view, he's lived through wars between former vampires and he's had to adapt to survive. You know that his periods in history still affect him, having spoken to him about them on several occasions, and that his reactions to the others stem mainly from a desire to see them hardened so that they can survive in case he isn't there to protect them. You try to help him break out of this way of thinking, but it's rather complicated for him, who has spent most of his life surviving rather than living.
It's quite rare that you talk about anything other than the boys and the security of the manor, but sometimes you simply accompany him into the forest to walk together. These are pleasant moments when Aaron talks to you about the poetry he writes or the few memories he has of his mother and his life in the village before he became a mercenary. He really enjoys spending his quiet time with you; he doesn't really have the opportunity to talk to others about what's affecting him, as his main concern is their safety. It does him a lot of good to know that you're there to listen to him.
Raphaël :
You spend a lot of time looking after Raphaël. He doesn't need you as much as Vladimir and Ivan, but you can't leave him alone. He's one of the most sensitive people in the manor and what seems harmless to others often seems horrible or catastrophic to him. You spend a lot of time reassuring him or making sure he doesn't stay alone with his dark thoughts for too long. This can be quite unsettling, even for you, as he seems capable of crying over even the smallest things and you sometimes find it very hard to reassure him when he goes into a spiral of anxiety.
You accompanied Vladimir to England to fetch him (Beliath would have gone with him if you hadn't been able to), and fortunately so, because Vladimir probably wouldn't have been able to come back if he'd gone on his own. Raphaël was frighteningly thin, lived in a flat that looked more like a dump than a house and was barely strong enough to get around on his own. You had to go hunting for him so he could get some food. And he also spent a lot of time sleeping or talking about his ex. During the journey to Raphaël's house, Vladimir confided in you that he was absolutely determined to go there because Raphaël had not replied to any of his letters and he was afraid that something had happened to him.
It took you twice as long to get back to the manor as it did to get to Raphaël's house, and you even carried his things for most of the way because the vampire wasn't strong enough to do it alone.
In the beginning, you spent a lot of time with him and he was almost never alone as Vladimir and Aaron were with him when you weren't around. Beliath and Ethan also took care of him, whether by buying him books or sweets when the incubus learned that Raphaël had a certain appetite for sweets.
When you spent time with Raphaël, he usually talked about Margarita, especially at the beginning. He was all over the place on the subject and never missed an opportunity to sing the praises of the vampire, repeating over and over again all her many qualities.
You find it a little hard to like his 'wonderful' Margarita, even though you don't want to tell him so. In any case, Aaron shares your opinion on the subject. You've always been taught that it's very dangerous for humans to associate with vampires, especially over the long term and you find it hard not to resent this woman for having consorted with two humans without regard for their safety. Raphaël is the perfect example of why vampires prefer not to do it, humans are too sensitive to your charm, even when you're not trying to charm them, and apart from vampire hunters few are able to resist it. So you're not really surprised that he's having so much trouble mourning this vampire even though he himself is a vampire and she has been dead for decades.
Now that Raphaël is feeling better, he talks to you less about Margarita and a bit more about art and the books he reads. He often comes to see you to see if you've read a book he's enjoyed and to get your opinion on the subject.
You also often accompany him outside the manor. Raphaël hardly ever leaves the manor unless someone accompanies him. He doesn't really feel safe outside because of all the cars and the hustle and bustle of modern life. More often than not, you'll take him to the theatre or the opera, and he loves going. Sometimes you manage to persuade him to go to the cinema, but it's always to see romantic comedies. He also likes it when you take him to the museum, Vladimir never feels safe enough to go with him and although Aaron and Beliath agree to go with him, he knows they're not interested.
Ethan :
He's not the easiest boy in the manor to get along with and sometimes you just want to send him to his room like a child having a tantrum. You can't do it, but the idea has crossed your mind so many times it's almost amusing.
He had a bit of trouble believing you at first when you told him your age. In fact, even making an effort and knowing that vampires exist, he can't understand how you could have been biologically alive for so long. He asked Beliath several times if it was really possible and if you weren't making fun of them.
You easily became attached to him, even if your relationship was a little complicated at first. After all, Ethan didn't trust anyone but Beliath and was constantly on the defensive with everyone. You must have made a lot of effort to get him to trust you and start talking to you without being mocking or aggressive.
But your efforts paid off in the end, not least because you stood up for him when Aaron got angry with Ethan. He started to talk to you a bit more often and, above all, a bit more calmly. You also got closer to him by agreeing to play chess with him, which he was quite happy about given that not many people agree to play chess with him ( and especially few people manage to win at chess against him, because despite what Vladimir and Raphaël say, Ethan doesn't cheat at chess).
It took you a long time before he confided in you about his past. At the beginning, when he started to trust you, you had as much information as Beliath. So you knew at least enough to know how to react in a crisis. Now you're the only person who knows everything about his past, even Beliath doesn't know everything.
He didn't think he'd talk to you about it at first, but now that you know, he feels better in a way he didn't think possible. There's something really reassuring about knowing that you're there and ready to listen to him talk if he needs to.
Often, he'll come and talk to you when the others are already asleep, to make sure no-one hears what he's saying. You spend a lot of time talking together, he often tells you the same things even though he's trying to understand how he feels about it, he trusts you but he doesn't like to remember his past and he likes the emotions that come with rememberings even less. Knowing that you're there to help him deal with the emotions he's trying to repress is reassuring for him.
To make him happy, you've bought him a mobile phone on the sly. You don't think Ethan's irresponsible enough to put anyone in danger with it, and what's more, your present seems to really please him given the amount of time he spends playing with it. He's nearly been noticed by Vladimir more than a dozen times, but you always manage to divert the aristocrat's attention so that Ethan doesn't get shouted at. Beliath knows too, and he too helps you hide the fact that Ethan has a mobile phone.
In a way, the phone you've bought him is also a way of reassuring yourself. You know that Ethan sometimes hangs out in dangerous neighbourhoods and knowing that he has a phone to call you if there's a problem makes you feel calmer.
You've already had to pick him up from a bar because he was too drunk to walk home alone. The bartender called you because your number was on Ethan's emergency call list. Honestly, you didn't know whether you were annoyed that you had to go across town to pick him up or touched by the fact that your phone number was on his emergency list.
Neil :
Neil is complicated. It took him a long time before he dared to rely on you and trust you. At first, he didn't trust you at all and avoided you. You can understand him, there's been so much war between former vampires that trusting you without thinking things through could be dangerous for him when he's far from healthy. After all, you're even older than he is, and therefore more powerful.
You moved him to one of the bedrooms upstairs after realising that Vladimir had left him to rot in the cellar (you were a little angry with Vladimir for showing so little empathy). Neil is at least grateful to you for that, he really didn't feel able to get around on his own. What's more, every time he woke up in the cellar, he was afraid that the death of the manor's occupants was just a dream and that they would end up coming back to repeat the experiments on him.
It took you a long time to really gain his trust, mainly because he spent a lot of time sleeping at first (well, when he wasn't being woken up by nightmares, each more horrible than the last).
You contacted some witches to get their advice on how to help him heal quickly. They advised you to let him sleep as often as possible, to block the sun's rays completely and to provide him with regular access to fresh blood.
For the nightmares, they sent you a small parcel of plants to burn in the bedroom, which you didn't think would work so well. You're in a good enough position as a former vampire to know that you often end up developing immunity to this kind of plant, so you assume that it's the weakened state in which you found the vampire that cancels out his immunity. You weren't going to complain though, because knowing that he could finally sleep without being constantly woken by nightmares was rather reassuring.
Thanks to your care, he was able to recover quickly and after a year, he could even leave the room without you having to support him to move around. Well, he couldn't go very far, but being able to go alone into the small living room to enjoy the fire in the fireplace already seemed to please him.
Little by little, he has begun to trust you. You look after him without treating him like a fragile little thing, and you help him to become powerful again, even if he feels that it will take him centuries to be the person he was before he was locked up in the cellar.
In the end, he even finds it rather pleasant to be able to count on someone to ensure his safety. He's never really known that: his half-brothers wanted to kill him, his father wanted more or less the same thing, not to mention his stepmothers who would no doubt have loved to see him dead. Then the rulers of neighbouring countries wanted him dead too when he became king, then other vampires during the wars between the ancients. To be able to trust someone is a rare thing for him, and above all a pleasant one.
His character isn't always easy, of course. Neil is a former king, so he can be rather arrogant at times, especially when he speaks to the younger members of the manor in a tone that suggests he thinks they're idiots. You can't persuade him to speak differently to the youngest, despite your insistence.
Now he likes spending time with you. He understands you more easily than the younger members of the manor, you've lived through all the wars between the elders that he's lived through, you know vampires that he also knows and by talking to you he realises that you even lived in certain royal courts at the same time. This allows you to remember some rather amusing anecdotes together.

the boys with a witch s/o!! she likes picking up mushrooms and herbs and crystals hehe
MC likes pickig up mushrooms, herbs and crystals
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
Here is the headcanon you requested, I hope you enjoy it! ^^
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
Vladimir :
You've been living in the manor house for a few weeks now, and Vladimir is getting used to having a witch in their midst. He's stopped looking at you suspiciously, as if at any second you could turn his tie into a snake or make the stairs disappear, and you're getting on well, well more than well, especially since you gave him a little sachet with a sweet, pleasant scent to put in his room to reduce his anxiety. He doesn't know where you got the sachet, but he has to admit that he feels a little less anxious since he got it.
At first he doesn't really pay much attention to your comings and goings in the forest. After all, as long as you don't do like Aaron and get dirt on the mats and the ground, he doesn't need to keep an eye on you.
He becomes a little more curious after seeing you return for the first time with two baskets loaded with herbs, mushrooms and various stones and crystals. You put everything in the kitchen before starting to sort them. He didn't understand your sorting at all, well, he saw that you were sorting the mushrooms, plants and stones together, but the sub-sorting you seemed to be doing seemed totally obscure to him.
You saw him watching you, not very discreetly, in the doorway but when you smiled at him before inviting him in, he bravely chose to flee, which at least had the merit of making you laugh while you continued your filing. Over the next few days, he continued to spy on you, as unobtrusively as ever, you could notice his presence even without your witch powers.
Vladimir was genuinely curious and also a little suspicious; he had met a lot of witches because of Aaron, but he hadn't often seen them using plants, stones and mushrooms in the kitchen to prepare concoctions and potions. Gradually, once he's sure you weren't trying to poison anyone, he comes to ask you questions and he understands better where the little sachet you gave him came from. He also feels a little stupid for having imagined the worst, after all if there was anything to fear Aaron would never have let you stay with them.
He ends up accompanying you into the forest from time to time when the moon is hidden, although he can't come with you as often as he'd like. He may have a good knowledge of plants, but not of mushrooms or stones and crystals. He doesn't even dare touch mushrooms, to tell you the truth, he still remembers his mother's advice on the subject quite well and he has no desire to poison himself by picking the wrong mushroom.
Most of the time, he's with you while you prepare your potions and concoctions, whether you've set up in the kitchen or in the small living room, taking advantage of the fireplace to put your caldron in it. He's especially interested in the way you use plants, and you've ended up teaching him how to remake the little anti-anxiety sachet you gave him in case he needs a new one.
After a few months, he'll offer to give you a small patch of garden so that you can plant the herbs you need most often. That way, you won't have to walk for hours in the forest looking for them.
Béliath :
You had arrived at the manor a few weeks earlier to live with them. Beliath had finally got used to your presence, and the kitchen had become your favourite room and the place where he was almost certain to always find you. He clearly didn't understand what you were doing there or where all the plants, mushrooms, stones and crystals on the counters came from, but at least you seemed to understand what you were doing, so he didn't ask any more questions than that. After all, if Aaron allows you to mix all his things in the kitchen, it's because it's safe for them to do so.
He takes a little time to notice your regular outings in the forest, after all, he's at Moondance most evenings and by the time he finally returns to the manor, you've long since returned from your outing too and finished sorting your harvest.
He surprises you for the first time on his way back to the manor house a little earlier than usual. He saw you on the way carrying two heavy baskets full of plants, mushrooms, stones and crystals. He offered to help you carry them and the two of you walked back to the manor together. It was then that you explained to him that you went out almost every evening to gather your harvest.
He has watched you sort through your harvest with some curiosity; objectively, he recognises certain plants and he knows that some of them are poisonous to his kind, but he's not really worried about that. After all, you're a witch and he knows that you probably know what you're doing much better than he does.
He likes to keep you company while you make your potions and concoctions when he's not out at the Moondance. He doesn't really understand what you're doing, but it's a bit like cooking, and as he likes to cook, he's happy to help you. On more than one occasion, however, he's been totally dismayed by the instructions in your grimoire, either because he didn't understand the language in which the recipe was written, or because he couldn't recognise the required item from all those on the counter.
He rarely accompanies you into the forest to collect your crops, but when he does come, he insists on carrying the baskets. It's the only thing he thinks he can do to help you, he has no idea what plants, mushrooms, stones and crystals you need to collect, and he also thinks he must at least be useful in some way to accompany you into the forest, otherwise he'd stay at the manor rather than get in the way of your harvest.
He was really touched when you offered him some hand cream after he complained that the cold was damaging his skin. He has no idea what you used to make it but he's never had one that worked so well - his hands are even softer than before and he can't help but smell them now.
Ivan :
Even though you've been living in the manor for several weeks now, Ivan still hasn't got over the fact that you're a witch, a real witch, who makes objects fly around rooms and boils water without a fire. He's often with you, even though Aaron has asked him several times to leave you alone. He's also very curious and asks you lots of questions about what you do with your plants, mushrooms and crystals.
He was quick to notice your many outings in the forest. It has to be said that he is constantly looking for you in the manor to ask you new questions, so he noticed very early on that you were sometimes away for several hours at a time. He even tried to follow you once, but Aaron argued with him and he went back to the manor.
He understood what you were doing in the forest the day he saw you come back with two baskets loaded with plants, mushrooms, stones and crystals and he immediately came to help you carry them to the manor. He's really curious to know what you're going to do with them and really impressed when he sees how easily you identify each plant, mushroom and stone. He asks you lots of questions about what you've brought back and tries to remember what you've told him to help you next time.
He always sits with you in the kitchen when you start preparing your potions and concoctions. At first, he won't try to help you for fear of making mistakes, but the more confident he feels, the more he'll offer to help, whether it's chopping ingredients, mixing them or simply reading the recipe while you prepare it.
When you need to concentrate, you manage to convince him to keep quiet so that he doesn't distract you too much with his questions. In that moment, he rests his head on his crossed arms as he watches you, everything you do seems to fill him with wonder, even more so when your cauldron starts to make smoke of different colours.
He insists on accompanying you almost every time. He'll help you carry the baskets and try to collect whatever you ask him to. He's not afraid to pick up mushrooms, plants or stones and crystals (as long as there are no slugs or snails around). He's really happy when you congratulate him on finding what you've asked for.
He's really pleased with the little crystal you gave him. You had modified it to make a pendant, and he was even happier when you told him that the crystal was designed to increase his self-confidence so that he wouldn't be so afraid of making mistakes. Since then, he's worn it constantly around his neck and often plays with it whenever he's feeling a bit anxious or stressed.
Aaron :
He was the first person you met and the one you asked if you could stay with them. Aaron accepted your presence quite easily, you don't seem hostile after all. The two of you get on quite well, and Aaron is used to hanging out with witches, so he's not really surprised by your habits, or even by the time you spend in the kitchen preparing potions or concoctions. He actually enjoys talking to you when you're doing this.
Aaron noticed quite quickly that you often went out into the forest to collect mushrooms, plants and stones. After all, he goes out into the forest at least once a night to hunt or go for a run. So he's seen you crouching in the grass on many occasions, picking up plants, mushrooms, crystals and stones, and he's also seen you quite often delicately catching insects lost on a plant you've just picked and putting them back on another plant. He sometimes stopped for a moment to chat with you before resuming his walk.
However, he didn't expect you to harvest so much on each trip. So he was really surprised when he saw you coming back to the manor with two baskets loaded to the brim. Aaron offered to help you carry them straight away and he helped you sort them in the kitchen.
He's not really surprised by your knowledge of plants, crystals, stones and mushrooms, you witches are generally veritable encyclopaedias on these subjects and he's certain that your knowledge is at least as great as Ethan's knowledge of medicine or Raphael's knowledge of art. He listened attentively when you began to talk about the fact that Vladimir's cyclamen could protect against certain evil spells if the flowers were well prepared, but frankly, he didn't think that the aristocrat's flowers could be of such use.
Sometimes he comes to help you prepare your concoctions and potions. He's not the most gifted cook in the manor, so he leaves most of the work to you for fear of spoiling or damaging things - after all, he knows that magic is a very sensitive thing. He mostly helps you cut and grind what you ask him to. He really enjoys these moments, especially when you teach him recipes for remedies that people without magic can use to heal others.
He often accompanies you when you go out to collect your plants, crystals, stones and mushrooms. He loves walking outdoors and accompanying you is a good excuse to go outside even more often. What's more, you talk a lot together at these times and he can't deny that, despite his extensive knowledge of plants, you always end up teaching him things he didn't know.
He was very surprised when you gave him a moonstone bracelet. He knows that this stone tends to reduce the pain of turning into a werewolf, but unfortunately it has to be enchanted by a witch for it to work and the enchantment disappears after a few months. He hasn't had one for years and it's a real relief for him that you're giving him a new one. He keeps the bracelet on him all the time and is really pleased to see that it works.
Raphaël :
It took him a while to realise that you were a witch. However, now that he knows, he's not really worried - after all, Aaron and Vladimir let you stay with them, so you don't represent any danger. He often chats to you when you come to read in the library or when he passes you in the kitchen or the small sitting room.
It takes a while before he notices your regular absences. It's just that Raphaël doesn't get out of the library much during the night (well, apart from a few times to eat sweets in the kitchen). He noticed your absence when Vladimir told him he had seen you return with two baskets loaded with plants, stones, crystals and mushrooms.
They discussed this at length over the following nights. They mainly wondered what you could do with all your harvest, even more so when Vladimir told Raphaël that he'd seen you come back with bark, brambles or worse, datura.
After that, he's a bit worried. Seriously, what are you going to do with brambles, dature and bark? He doesn't really dare eat the sweets in the kitchen any more, preferring instead to eat the ones hidden in his bedroom. It takes him a while to stop worrying, but after several weeks you still don't seem to want to hurt them, and the little crystals you're placing around the manor seem to have eased the tension and arguments (they've never gone so long without an argument between Ethan and Ivan). Raphaël relaxes again and even comes to spend time with you in the kitchen.
He loves it when you describe the stones and crystals you've collected during your harvest. He has quite a collection of them in his room after all, so he's even more interested when you tell him about the powers that stones and crystals can have once they've been bewitched.
As he loves to cook, he enjoys helping you prepare your concoctions and potions. It's more complex than following a cooking recipe though and he's much more worried about making mistakes because of it. He's always surprised when he hears you whispering in languages he doesn't know as you stir your mixture in the pot, the smell is usually very pleasant, even if the situation always seems a little frightening.
He accompanies you into the forest mainly to carry one of your baskets; he'd carry both if he could, but he needs a free hand to hold his white cane. He quite enjoys these moments as long as you're careful not to hurt himself on the lower branches. You chat a lot in general and he learns a lot about plants that he didn't know.
He's very happy with the little herbal tea bags you've given him, whether to help him with his headaches or to relieve stress and anxiety. He drinks one every night before going to bed.
Ethan :
Aaron was quick to tell him that you were a witch, mainly so that Ethan wouldn't bother you and would let you work in peace. It didn't work, he's coming to bother you, particularly by touching and disturbing the sorting you've done with your crops. As you know, he's a doctor, so he's well aware that some of the plants and mushrooms you've collected are highly toxic. You told him to stop, once, twice, three times, the fourth time you sprayed him with water until he left the kitchen. Ethan was very upset, but as long as he doesn't get poisoned by messing around with your crops you're satisfied.
He knew you went out every night, after all, your plants, mushrooms, stones and crystals didn't miraculously appear on the kitchen counter. However, he never saw you go out, you usually left after he left for Moondance and you were back long before he returned to the manor.
He understands a little of the sorting you do, especially the way you sort the mushrooms. You're always very careful not to let them touch each other, even when they're still in your basket. After watching you sort, he finally noticed that you never picked up poisonous mushrooms on the same days as non-toxic ones, and the same goes for plants.
He thinks that your ability to memorise is as impressive as it is frightening, he's already had fun asking you questions about your harvest and you always give the right answer. Worse still, he's certain that an encyclopaedia couldn't give as much information about a plant, a crystal, a stone or a mushroom as you do.
Ethan doesn't help you prepare your potions and concoctions, and given his culinary prowess that's preferable. More often than not, he sits beside you in the kitchen and watches you prepare your potions with a questioning eye. He looks at you with even more uncertainty when you sit in the parlour with your cauldron in the fireplace or when he sees you grinding bark to add to your concoction. He asks you a lot of questions about it, and has a hard time understanding how everything you mix together can become a useful remedy for wounds.
He rarely accompanies you into the forest, but when he does he asks you lots of questions, especially about what you plan to do with the plants, stones, mushrooms and crystals you collect.
He was a bit sceptical at first when you offered him a crystal that was supposed to help him sleep and prevent him from having nightmares. He already takes sleeping pills and that's never stopped him from waking up in a panic or not being able to sleep all day. So he's very surprised and happy to see how much better he sleeps with the crystal in his bedroom. Even so, he still finds it a little hard to believe that it really works, even after you've explained to him several times that you've enchanted the crystal with your magic. He asks you lots of questions about it because he needs to understand how it works.
Neil :
He's staying with you in a little wooden hut lost in the middle of the forest. You agreed to let him into your house when the weather was stormy and he was surprised by the heavy rain. He didn't think he'd run into a witch, but he's not surprised - after all, you live alone in the middle of the woods. It's a bit of a cliché, but quite common for a witch when you don't live in a clan.
Your house is full of plants, mushrooms, stones and crystals, but everything seemed to have a well-defined place in various jars. Your garden was also overflowing with plants of all kinds. Neil would often find you planting seeds or preparing your next harvest.
He didn't immediately notice you going back and forth to the forest, it has to be said that Neil was quite tired and spent a lot of time sleeping or hunting in the nearby town to regain his strength. Either you went out while he was asleep and were back long before he was awake, or you went out while he was hunting and were back long before he was back home.
Eventually, he'll see you coming and going in the forest, especially when he starts to spend less time sleeping. He always sees you returning with baskets laden with plants, stones, crystals and mushrooms. Your sorting is precise and meticulous, and you even note the date of harvest on the jars.
He's quite impressed by the number of supernatural creatures who come to visit you for your remedies and potions, of course he knows that this is quite normal for a witch - you're usually in contact with many different supernatural species and you have the best knowledge of how to cure illnesses and wounds - but he didn't expect you to be indispensable to so many people.
He never helps you prepare your concoctions and potions, and frankly you're not sure this former king would be able to cook anything edible. The house is rather small, so most of the time he's in the living room/kitchen with you while you cook your remedies.
He's a bit wary at first when he sees you mixing your harvest in a pot in the fireplace or on the gas cooker. Of course, he's been staying with you for several weeks and you still haven't tried to murder him, which is a good sign, but he thinks you can never be too careful.
He doesn't often accompany you on outings into the forest, but he does sometimes. He helps you collect the plants you need and listens to you talk about them. In fact, he's quite impressed by your knowledge of the subject, as he only knew the basics, i.e. which plants and mushrooms are poisonous and should not be eaten, and the rest he had no idea about.
He didn't really expect you to offer him anything. So he was very surprised when you gave him a little amulet to help him sleep. It's working really well because he feels a lot less tired than before when he wakes up and, above all, he's having a lot fewer nightmares, which is quite nice because he used to wake up often because of them and always found it hard to go back to sleep afterwards.
Léandra :
She had been injured when she fell during a storm (not for the first time, Beliath had asked her dozens of times not to fly in the middle of a storm). Because of her injury, she could no longer fly, let alone return home. Léandra found your house in the middle of the forest by chance and asked you for help. You agreed to house and care for her in your home without the slightest hesitation, which was a relief to her - even witches are always a little reluctant to house a succubus in their home.
She soon realised that you were away every evening collecting plants, mushrooms and crystals in the forest. It has to be said that she couldn't do much other than wait for her wings to heal. For the first few nights, she stayed in your house to rest, as the fall had weakened her considerably, and she read or went for walks in your garden to try and pass the time while waiting for you to return.
When you returned, she would watch you as you sorted your plants, mushrooms, crystals and stones into different jars. She was quite curious about your tidying up, after all, it's not every day she gets the chance to enter a witch's house.
She was also very impressed by your garden; at first glance, it looked like a wasteland, but after a few minutes of observation, she began to notice certain similarities between the plants that were there, the most toxic being all in a separate area that was difficult for even animals to access.
The rest of the time, she watches you as you prepare your concoctions and remedies. More often than not, you sit right in front of the fireplace with your cauldron on the fire, mixing the products with disconcerting ease and barely needing to read the recipe to know what to do. She's also very intrigued by what you recite while you're bewitching your potions, she feels as if she's heard this language before, a sort of old demon language, and yet she's unable to understand a single word you say.
She starts to accompany you into the forest as soon as she feels less tired, allowing her to stretch her wings a little by trying to fly again.
She watched you a lot as you healed her wings with your concoctions and remedies. What impressed her most was how quickly the pain disappeared as you applied your remedy to her injured wings. Usually, the pain doesn't disappear for several weeks while the healing takes place, but with your remedy, she was able to move her wings with only slight discomfort, and it was a real relief not to have to search for several minutes for a position that wouldn't make her wings even more painful.
Farah :
Farah allowed you to join the pack when you were looking for a group to travel with for a while. It's not often that a witch travels with them, but it's not uncommon. To thank them for their hospitality, you took it upon yourself to replenish the pack doctor's stock of remedies and panaceas. Farah is very grateful to you for this, as the medicines often run out and your help in replenishing the stock is invaluable to them.
She doesn't notice your regular absences at first, as she has a lot to do managing her pack and also needs to go hunting every day. She eventually comes across you in the forest with your baskets, but as you seem very focused on your task, she doesn't dare interrupt you and prefers to let you work. However, she always checks that you're back with the pack and doesn't hesitate to come and join you if you're slow in returning. After all, as long as you're in the pack, you're her responsibility and she'd be really upset if anything happened to you.
When she sees how full your baskets are when you return from harvesting, she asks a member of the pack to accompany you next time you need help. After all, just because you're helping them to replenish their stock of medicine doesn't mean you have to work alone to harvest the products. So you almost always have someone with you, and most often it's the pack doctor.
Farah tries to keep you company while you prepare your concoctions and potions. You always set yourself a little apart from the rest of the pack so that your plants, mushrooms, stones and crystals don't come into contact with the food that you and the rest of the pack are going to eat. She has a pretty good knowledge of plants and mushrooms, so she's able to pass you the ones you ask for, which is much less the case for crystals and stones.
She accompanies you as often as possible to help you harvest what you need. She finds it quite fun, a bit like a treasure hunt. You harvest much more quickly when you work with her. You also talk a lot, even though her knowledge of plants and mushrooms is vast, she always learns something new every time she goes out with you and you never seem to run out of information on the subject.
She's really pleased when she sees how quickly you've replenished her pack's stock of remedies and panaceas. She had been worried for a while that she wouldn't be able to find a witch and would run out of medicine when someone got hurt. She has thanked you several times for this, because it's taken a load off her mind.

hey, you could write a story where y/n would be in a relationship with Farah and she would introduce her to the wolf pack, thanks in advance. Good day to you
MC meets Farah's pack
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
Here is the scenario you requested, I hope you enjoy it. ^^
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
--------------------
It must have been one of the most stressful nights of your life. You followed Farah closely through a steep forest, your hand in hers as she guided you along the path. Despite the difficult terrain, you weren't afraid of falling or stumbling - if you did, you knew Farah would have no trouble catching you. What stressed you to the point of making your heart race and your palms sweat was the fact that Farah was keen to introduce you to her pack, which was a big step in your relationship that had lasted several months.
You still remember vividly the day she told you she was a werewolf, and to be honest, you were a bit scared that night... Ok more than a little scared, After all, it's not every day that your girlfriend turns into a wolf before your very eyes. Once the shock wore off, however, many of your questions were finally answered. You knew why she disappeared every night of the full moon, you had explanations for the many scars on her body, for her calmness even in stressful situations and you also knew where she got all her knowledge of flora and fauna.
"The path gets a bit more difficult from here," Farah informed you, letting go of your hand. I'll help you don't worry, I wouldn't want you to sprain your ankle this far out of town."
She jumped down the steep embankment, despite the roots and slippery ground. You wouldn't consider yourself a clumsy person, though, you wouldn't have gone down as recklessly as she did.
Farah turned and held out her arms to help you down, you put your hands on her shoulders and before you knew it you were back on the floor beside her. You stared at each other for a moment, your hands still on her shoulders and hers on your waist, before Farah shook her head.
"Are you all right? You seem a bit stressed this evening.
-I'm... no, I'm fine. I am a little stressed, but I think I'll be fine once we get there."
Farah smiled at you before gently kissing your cheek.
"They're very nice, don't worry, but a bit noisy sometimes. They'll probably be surprised that I'm bringing someone with me tonight. That never usually happens…"
As she spoke, Farah stopped looking at you and went on her way, holding your hand. You still didn't know what to expect, Farah told you that her pack consisted of around ten people. There are no travellers at the moment, so they are all members in their own right. There's a child, a teenage girl, the pack doctor who's been following her for over twenty years, an old man who used to be a preceptor and who never misses an opportunity to give lessons on his favourite subjects, a vampire hunter who found herself transformed into a werewolf during a hunt, a former jazz singer and a forest ranger who's recently been transformed into a werewolf and who's still trying to adapt to this new way of life.
After another half-hour of difficult walking you finally entered a small clearing, the half-moon above your head illuminating your path sufficiently for you no longer to be afraid of stumbling. At the other end of the clearing, there was an old man sitting in a chair surrounded by a teenage girl and a young boy. More centrally around the wood fire were the rest of the pack, a man in his forties playing his guitar under the watchful eye of a young woman, while another woman seemed to have fallen asleep next to them and a third woman was leaning over the campfire where several freshly caught fish were roasting.
You watched them for an instant, until the little boy's cry made all heads turn towards you. You stopped for a moment, petrified by their gaze, which ranged from questioning to hostile. It only lasted about ten seconds, because the child, who must have been little Mathéo that Farah had told you about along the way, ran towards you with the same joy that a puppy might have at meeting a new friend to play with.
"It's not right to jump on people, just say hello," Farah scolds gently as she grabs the young boy.
Despite his visible desire to jump around you, the boy stepped back before giving you a salute worthy of a young eighteenth-century nobleman. After that, he turned back towards the back of the clearing, obviously seeking the approval of the old man who was sitting in a chair right next to the teenager. The slow nod of the man's head seemed to delight the child, who started hopping around again.
"Bartolde taught him to wave like that," Farah whispers in your ear. "He was a preceptor when he was still human, and he's always the one who takes care of the children when there are any - the little ones love him."
"Are you a wolf too?" cut in the child. Me, I can almost transform myself whenever I want.
Before you could reply, the man playing the guitar called the child over and showed him the musical instrument, the child abandoned you almost immediately with a cry of joy.
"I'll introduce you to the others while Willie takes care of distracting the little one."
Without letting go of your hand, which Farah was still holding, you walked towards the end of the clearing. Seeing you approach, the old man rose from his chair, leaning on a piece of wood that served as a cane. The teenager next to him moved to support him before stopping when she saw that he didn't seem to be wavering. As Farah told you, Bartolde had all the makings of an old grandfather: grey hair, a Father Christmas beard, a welcoming smile on his lips, an old turtleneck jumper and even a shawl over his shoulders.
"You must be Farah's young friend. I am honoured to meet you," said the old man with a smile. "My name is Bartolde and the young lady next to me is Miss Hellébores."
The young lady in question gave you a brief nod before fixing her eyes again on the ground at her feet, fiddling with her fingers with visible anxiety, occasionally casting a quick glance towards Farah and Bartolde as if to make sure that the situation represented no danger. You chatted for several minutes with the old man, who was obviously happy to have someone new to share his anecdotes and old stories with.
Then you left to introduce yourself to the others. By the fire, Willie greeted you with a brief nod, his attention focused on Mathéo, who was strumming the strings of his guitar with as much delicacy as if he'd been equipped with boxing gloves.
The woman who had been tending the fire had disappeared, but the other two presented to you, with varying degrees of sympathy. Émilie, the former forest ranger, shook your hand enthusiastically before asking if the voyage up here had not tired you too much and offering you her place on the tree stump to rest, while Ashlyn, the former vampire hunter, didn't bother to get up and greeted you with a wave of her hand, all the while casting an annoyed glance at the child who had obviously woken her from her nap.
You chatted with them for a long time, especially with Émilie who was the most talkative of the group and Mathéo who sometimes interrupted the conversation to tell you about a toy or to boast about his tree-climbing skills. Eventually, the chatter died down and Farah left you to talk to Bartolde and Hellébores.
You were alone for a short while, busy with your thoughts, until a new voice rang out beside you.
"So you're the person Farah keeps talking to me about. The woman you saw looking after the fire when you arrived had just appeared next to you, her head slightly bent as if to tell you a secret. I'm glad to finally meet you, my name is Olena. Your start at her sudden presence makes her laugh softly. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to frighten you, your name is MC, isn't it?
-Er, yes…
-I hope nobody scared you, they can be a bit noisy and difficult, but everyone is very nice here.
-No, it's fine, I was afraid before coming, but in the end everything went well.
-That's good. You know, when I say that Farah never stops talking about you, it's not just a figure of speech. Every day, I hear things like "I'm going to the park with MC today" or "we had lunch together by the lake this afternoon, MC was really pretty and we chatted so much I didn't realise how much time had passed" or "I really miss MC, I hope we can see each other soon". Olena had imitated Farah's tone perfectly, despite the mischievous tone in her voice. Farah talks about you so much I feel like I know you.
You looked down for a moment, feeling your cheeks heat up with discomfort. Olena laughed again.
"Don't worry, it's not a reproach. I'm just happy. I've known Farah for years and I've never seen her in love before, it's lovely to see her like this. She's much more clumsy and distracted than usual."
You chatted to Olena for a long time, enough to learn that she was the doctor and one of the oldest wolves in the pack. She told you some amusing anecdotes about Farah and their travels so far. When Farah finally came back to you, Olena waved you off and went back to looking after the fire and the meal.
When Farah found you, she gently kissed your cheek before apologising for the time it had taken her to return, and then you moved away from the group, far enough away so that they couldn't hear you speak, but still close enough to keep seeing them. Farah sat down on a tree stump, inviting you to do the same by patting the spot next to her. After a moment's silence, you spoke.
"Olena told me that you'd spoken to her about me.
Farah smiled almost shyly as she felt the heat rise to her cheeks.
"Well…, she's very curious and she wanted to know where I was so often… so… maybe I told her a little about you…
-That's not really what she told me," you say with an amused look.
-Maybe I talk to her about you a bit more often than I thought I would in this case.
Your shoulders are together and after a moment's hesitation Farah takes your hand in hers before breaking the silence.
"I think we'll be staying here near the town for a while yet. You could come and visit us, I'm sure the rest of the pack would love to get to know you and spend some time with you and… Farah paused for a moment and stroked the back of your hand. If ever… I'm not asking you to choose now, you still have time but we'll have to leave one day… the hunters will spot us if we don't and I can't risk putting my pack in danger. Farah had never you seemed so nervous, and she made an effort to stop looking at the grass and look up at you,… I'd like you… to come with us that day… I… I'm not asking you to make a choice now though! You still have time. I know it's difficult and that you need to think about it. You can't leave everything on a whim, but I'd like you to think about it. I love you MC whatever decision you make."
Farah leaned over to kiss you gently, your hand still in hers. The two of you spent a long time discussing the decision you wanted to make before Olena called you to come and eat with the rest of the pack.

Ethan take care MC who is sick
Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^
Here's the headcanon from Mc sick, this time with Ethan. All that's left to do is Neil, Léandra and Farah. I hope you enjoy it! ^^
Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^
Underneath his grumpiness and constant bad temper Ethan is a very good doctor. He always takes care of those who fall ill in the manor, even if he sometimes does so by complaining. His only fault is that he sometimes gets a bit overbearing when he's treating others (but what doctor wouldn't get overbearing after trying to treat Aaron or after arguing several times with Vladimir to get him into the manor on the night of a full moon?)
For his part, he hardly ever falls ill. That's pretty unusual for a vampire his age, or so Aaron says anyway, while Ethan simply boasts that he's naturally more resilient. You haven't had to take care of him often because of illness since you've been living together, and the few times it happens he's calm and serious enough not to do anything crazy and to stay in bed resting, which he does with even more goodwill if you agree to stay with him.
You fall ill more often than he does. But he's always looked after you when you're ill and he doesn't complain at all with you, even when a bad cough keeps you both awake or when you snuggle up to him to try and keep warm.
It didn't take long for the abnormal heat you were giving off to wake him up, and Ethan opened his eyes after a few seconds. He looked like a cat that had been woken from a comfortable sleep on the radiator, slowly, he lowered his gaze to you, still pressed against him. His tired little eyes opened wider when he realised you had a fever.
"You're burning up, my darling," whispered the vampire as he gently caressed your cheek.
Her cold hand brought you almost immediate relief, so you leaned back against her a little more to enjoy her coolness.
-I'm not feeling very well," you mumbled in a pasty voice as your only reply.
-I can see that… "
He was about to withdraw his hand to raise himself up on one elbow when you stopped him in his tracks.
"No, leave your hand, it's cold, it feels good.
-I'd rather go and get a cold compress", laughed the vampire before kissing your forehead.
You gave a little disgruntled grunt as he moved away from you to get up this time, but before he left the room he leaned in again to kiss you.
"I'll bring you back a bottle of water and some herbal tea too, try to get back to sleep while you wait for me."
You nodded, and if a small part of your mind wanted to protest at the idea of him going away, you were far too tired for that.
After he left, you tried to get some sleep, as Ethan had recommended, but despite your drowsiness you couldn't close your eyes. You were too cold, then too hot, and when you finally found a comfortable position to close your eyes, you had to sit up straight because of a violent coughing fit that made your throat feel like it was on fire. What's more, your blocked nose meant you had to breathe through your mouth, and you bitterly regretted not having taken more advantage of the pleasant gulps of fresh air you could get when your nose wasn't blocked.
Ethan finally returned after several minutes. He put the bottle of water and the herbal tea within easy reach on the desk, then sat down on the bed next to you to put the cold compress on your forehead. The relief was almost immediate, and you closed your eyes, savouring the freshness, which even soothed your headache a little.
"It's cold, but it's nice.
I hope so," Ethan smiled, It would be a shame if it didn't make you feel a little better," He leaned in to kiss your cheek and you remained silent for a moment as he began to stroke your hair.
You were almost certain that you could have fallen back asleep, his simple presence soothing you. Finally, you gently tugged on his shirt to get his attention before mumbling.
"Lie down beside me.
-Only after you've had some herbal tea.
-So give me the herbal tea and lie down beside me.
Ethan laughed again at the authoritative tone you tried to take, an authoritative tone that didn't sound authoritative at all because your voice was so hoarse.
-All right, all right, my darling, I'm at your service.
You sat up a little on the bed before Ethan handed you the herbal tea. Once the cup was in your hands, he settled into bed beside you and you leaned on his shoulder. You felt good snuggled up to him and after you'd had a little drink you handed the cup back to him to put on the desk.
You were feeling better and better, your headache soothed by the compress on your forehead, and the herbal tea had soothed the burning in your throat and your cough. You were sure you would fall asleep quickly, and in fact your eyes were already closing.
"You're an excellent doctor," you murmured tiredly.
-But I didn't do much.
-Yes, you did a lot.
-All right, I believe you, darling," Ethan replied, pulling you closer to him. Try and get some sleep now, you look exhausted.
You nodded, your eyes already closed, but you spoke again a few seconds later.
-Ethan?
-Hmm?
-I love you.
-Love you too.
