#your job doesnt care if you die. don't give a shit about owing the company anything; especially Going The Extra Mile or w/e
Text
speaking of the whole “don’t feel obligated to these jobs and like you have to sacrifice and go the extra mile b/c the jobs do not give a shit about you” remember like not even a month ago when those cops played out some fantasy in response to the ups driver taken hostage in a getaway and used random people as human shields and killed the hostage driver and also the two guys trying to make the getaway and also a bystander died and ups was like “thank you for your service officers” they don’t give a shit also there should be no cops

we all know max phillips is one big giant bloodsucking bastard that fucking turned the whole office into vampires with or without their consent because, i dont fucking know, sales??
and of course we all know eddie, our baby freshman, is a cute lil psychology major who liked buffy because she was nice to him but unfortunately died two times BECAUSE of her??
what if these two very different characters were in the same universe 🤔
imagine one night eddie just couldn’t handle the bloodlust anymore— he’s been holding that part of himself back because he doesn’t want to be a monster— but it got to be too much and he was forced to go out and find someone to drink from.
at this point, eddie looks like utter shit. he’s thin, pale, eyes are sunken and black, and his fangs are out. he’s dizzy, he’s stumbling, and nobody is around for him to attack.
eventually he collapses from exhaustion and hunger. if there were people who saw him, they probably thought him to be a homeless person and didn’t bother to help.
this is when max finds him, i dont know how he finds him but he does ok dont question it.
at first max doesn’t give a shit, why would he? he doesn’t owe any other vampire anything, so why should he care about this young vampire who probably feels like hes going to die again which he definitely does not know how it feels because of his own sire that left him to fend for himself with no knowledge of being a vampire-
oh
well
max reluctantly carries the poor bat up on his back and reluctantly speeds to his apartment to reluctantly give the boy a bag of donated blood. when eddie stirs from the scent of it, max watches him sink his fangs into the bag and fucking gulp the whole thing down.
no it does not make him happy that the boy is looking significantly healthier and better than how he found him.
after eddie eats his fill, he finally realises that he has company and is very scared but also relieved. scared because thats his natural reaction whenever hes with somebody he doesnt know (also because hes in the house of somebody he doesnt know) but hes relieved because this older vampire helped him and maybe will continue to help him.
HOWEVER max is allergic to feelings and emotions so he kicks eddie out after making sure the kid is ok.
jokes on him tho, eddie follows max around like a lost puppy. he doesn’t know anybody else who’s a vampire and he can’t really go up and ask people if they are without them thinking he’s delusional, so OF COURSE hes gonna attach himself to the only 'role model' he knows.
max hates it. max hates that the kid keeps knocking on his door to stay at his place. max hates that the kid looks like a sad baby bat whenever he refuses to let him in. max hates that he lets the kid in at the first sight of his pout. max hates that he shares his blood supply, that he pays cash money for, to this kid who doesn’t even want to learn how to hunt like a proper vampire. most of all, max hates how he’s getting soft for the damn kid.
one day, eddie asks if there were more vampires than him and max, and max goes like, dude how the fuck do you think we became vampires in the first place???
so max brings eddie to his work place to show him around (bring your child to work day) and how the whole office is turned into vampires, like his own little coven of bats, and eddie is both amazed and terrified.
“so... you turned everybody in the office?”
“well not everybody, but only the ones i know will do a better job once they are one.”
“they all listen to you? depend on you?”
“well, i am their boss and their sire, so they really have no choice.”
“... do i have a sire?”
“... yes and no.”
cue sad eyes from eddie because he realises that the person who was responsible for turning him was supposed to help him but didn’t.
max has a sudden surge of anger directed to his baby bat’s sire, how dare they leave him behind all alone without any—
hold on
his baby bat?
fuck
it takes a few days for max to come to terms that he now sees this adorable, too good for this world boy somehow as his... son... but then he remembered how hard it was for him back when he first changed that he had nobody to lean onto.
now he has the opportunity to be that solid pillar for the boy to go to whenever he’s afraid or confused.
no he wasn't tearing up at the thought of having a son because he had always wanted a family of his own and cant have it anymore due to his immortality.
when he brings up the idea of becoming eddie's sire, at first eddie was like, you can do that?? how?? and THEN eddie was like, wait, you wanna be my sire 🥺?
"how does that even work?"
"you just drink from me."
"but we don't have blood? our hearts are dead."
"no shit sherlock."
little bit about that is max feeds naturally, as in hunt down a human and drink from them, and then eddie has to bite max and drink that blood from him.
dont fucking question it.
so they do the whole shebang shebang, now max has officially adopted taken eddie under his bat wing.
if max thought eddie was clingy when they first met, it doesn't compare to eddie actually having that close bond with max and always wanting to be with or around the older vamp.
and they lived happily ever after until the end of time 😌
just kidding :-))
