“I was human once?” Ricky raised a brow. “Now that is something I don’t remember well.” It had been hundreds of years but the demon really couldn’t remember if he’d ever actually been a true human. He just shrugged though, it wasn’t something that bothered him. He just followed along after the younger, taking in the apartment building as they entered it. “What am I not going to get a tour?” He teased, stepping closer to the red head, practically looming above him.

        “   isn’t  that  the  case,  or  have  i’ve  been  watching  too  much  tv ??  ”   he  chuckled.   but  he  wasn’t  sure  honestly.   most  supernaturals  were  once  human,  so  demons  must  have  been  too,  right ??    he  glanced  over  at  the  man.    nikolai  looked  up  at  the  other  man,  smiling  at  him,  his  hand  resting  on  the  man’s  chest.    “   i  can  show  you  my  room,  ”   he  smirked.

“Just moved here three weeks ago, from a city north of here.” He nodded placing clean dry cups back into their spot. “It reminds me of a calmer Las Vegas.” Matt shrugged. “I wish you good luck on that search but just know there are plenty of fish in the sea.” He smiled.

       “  wow,  so  you’re  really  new.   that’s  awesome.    well  welcome  to  cyanide  city,  ”   he  smiled  at  the  other.    “   i’ve  never  been  to  vegas,  so  that’s  saying  something,  i  guess.  ”   he  nodded.    “   oh,  it’s  not  a  partner  or  anything.   i’m  single.   very  single,  ”   he  laughed.

“Do I look like I make fucking cookies?” Ricky shook his head, laughing loudly. This kid was almost innocent, which he didn’t expect for a vampire. “Cool? You think be being a demon is cool? Maybe I’ll keep you then.” He kept his eyes black now that he knew the other man liked it, though his gaze flicked around the dark streets. “We almost to your place or are we going to walk all night, little red?” He asked with an arched brow. Ricardo didn’t care much for rules, or niceties, but he was being fairly pleasant to Niko right now as he did want something from him, something fairly intimate and he was getting impatient. 

      “   i  mean,  you  have  a  story.   you  were  human  once.    isn’t  that  the  story ??  ”   he  asked,  keeping  his  eyes  on  the  other.    “   we’re  close,  ”   he  smiled.   “  right  here,  ”   he  said,  as  he  led  the  other  towards  his  apartment  building.    it  didn’t  take  long  for  the  two  of  them  to  go  up  to  his  home.   once  inside,  he  turned  to  look  at  the  other  and  he  grinned.    “   so,  this  is  my  place.  ”

mattxjonas‌:

“Nice to know someone is new here like me.” Matt nodded. “It’s okay, I see weird things sometimes but other than that I am getting along great.” He shrugged making a drink for someone else. “What brought you out here?” He questioned the redhead.

     “    yea,  how  long  have  you  been  here ??  ”    he  asked,  looking  up  at  the  other,  taking  a  sip  of  the  drink.    “    that’s  good,  it’s  definitely  a  city  that  never  sleeps,  sometimes.  ”   he  took  a  gulp  of  the  drink  after  he  heard  the  next  question.   “  just  finding  someone  that  might  be  here.   so  far  no  luck.  ”

mattxjonas‌:

Matt took the empty cup and placed it in the sink with some other empty glasses he would get to in a minute. Hearing the other speak was comforting, it was late and he could use some conversation to stimulate his brain. “It has it’s up and downs like most things. I like talking to different people, I just moved here.”

       “  oh  really,  i  thought  so  too,  ”   he  smiled.    “   i  mean,  i’m  fairly  new  myself.   i  moved  here  about  three  months  ago,  ”   he  chuckled.   “   how  are  you  liking  cyanide ??  ”   the  red  head  asked.     he  kept  his  eyes  on  the  other,  wondering  about  the  other’s  story.   was  he  a  supernatural ??   all  questions  he’d  eventually  ask.

“i don’t think it’s an irrational fear.” erik comments after a second, “we are capable of doing a lot of harm. by our willpower and resistance, we don’t. who knows what is out there or what we might encounter that changes that. it’s… horribly terrifying to think i might be responsible for someone’s death. your anxiety.. it’s justified. but i believe we will be able to do the right thing as long as that is what we want to do.”

     the  other  was  right.   niko  didn’t  want  to  turn  into  one  of  those  vampires  where  their  humanity  was  lost.   but  what  would  happen  if  he  discovered  his  father,  and  his  father  told  him  off,  would  say  he  never  wanted  him.    niko  would  be  torn.    he  sighed.    eyes  shifted  up  to  look  at  the  man.   a  soft  smile.    “   you’re  right,  we’re  good,  so  if  we  express  that  goodness  in  us,  then  that  says  a  lot.  ”

[bbylatu]

restlesspirits‌:

“Maybe.” Ricky chuckled quietly. He liked this kid, Niko was curious and funny and gorgeous. Definitely someone he didn’t mind keeping around. “You think we bake cookies?” Rick let out a loud laugh at that. “You’re funny.” He reached up, ruffling the red hair. He hunched over to get ear level. “You don’t have to whisper.” Rick was teasing mostly, just seeing if he could ruffle any feathers. Once he was sure the vampire was looking at him he let his eyes turn an inky black. “Thanks, sweet stuff.” He even added a wink for emphasis. 

       “  i  mean,  do  you ??  ”   he  laughed.   “  i  wouldn’t  mind  some  cookies.  i  like  cookies,  especially  the  chocolate  chip  ones.  ”    he  grinned.    he  kept  his  eyes  on  ricky.   he  was  absolutely  beautiful,  niko  had  to  admit.   “       niko  watched  as  the  other  showed  him  his  eyes.    the  black  color  filling  the  entirety  of  it.    niko  wasn’t  scared,  he  found  it  fascinating.   there  were  demons  that  he  met  that  were  quite  kind,  was  ricky  the  same ??   “   that’s  cool.  ”    he  whispered.

Matt smiled at the voice coming from the other end of the bar, he pulled out a glass and poured some vodka in while pumping in sprite from the soda gun they had. He placed some cut up lemons and limes in a small bowl and walked the drink and sides to the man. “Need me to take that?” He pointed at the empty cup.

      nikolai  watched  as  the  other  as  he  made  his  drink.   niko  thought  about  the  potential  of  being  a  bartender  before.   someone  said  he’d  be  good  at  it,  he  had  an  approachable  face  and  he  was  good  at  socializing.   “    thank  you,  yea  that  be  great,  ”   he  said.   taking  a  sip  of  the  drink.    “  it  must  be  fun,  being  a  bartender.  ” 

[bbylatu]

mattxjonas‌:

Matt worked hard to get his bartender role, he was still on dish pit duty during the day but now most nights he was making drinks. Tonight he was closing, the night was winding down to just regulars he had to call taxies for. “Last call.” He looked down at his watch, starting to count the tips burning a hole in his pocket, the guy had it well off but any extra money was needed.

     it  was  a  late  night,  and  it  seemed  like  niko  was  one  of  the  last  people  at  the  bar.   he  looked  up  at  the  bartender  and  he  nodded.   “  i’ll  take  a  vodka  sprite,  ”   he  said.   “  with  a  lemon  and  lime  please,  ”   he  ordered  the  drink  before  finishing  the  drink  he  had  left.

“I wouldn’t say I’m perfect for what you’re searching but I do appreciate the compliment.” The blonde said as he gave the other a nod, “Why don’t we start off with our names? I’m Vincent and you?” He said walking next to the other offering him the same smile always.

       “   i’m  nikolai.   niko  for  short,  ”   he  smiled.   he  chuckled,  realizing  that  they  didn’t  even  exchange  their  names.   he  nodded,  looking  up  at  vincent.    “   your  name  is  nice  though.   vincent.  ”

[bbylatu]

victimplagued‌:

“everyone is different, i suppose.” he finds himself saying since he hasn’t the slightest clue what other vampires were like and what was common. the only exposure he ever got with his creator who had instilled this peaceful and victimless lifestyle onto him, for which he was grateful. “why do you fear losing control? what makes you think you won’t always have control of yourself?”

      “   yea,  i  guess  so,  ”   he  admitted.    which  was  true,  every  person  was  different.    every  vampire  was  different,  from  what  it  seemed.    eyes  shifted  up  to  look  at  the  man  and  he  nodded.    “   i  don’t  know,  i  heard  stories.   i’m  not  a  killer,  but  i  can  be  now,  and  that  thought  terrifies  me.    i  feel  like  something  will  make  me  break.   maybe  it’s  my  anxiety.   that  clearly  hasn’t  left.   ”

“Pure.” He snickered at the idea of someone thinking he is pure. Ricardo was the exact opposite of that but it was cute that the red head thought of him like that, it was sweet almost. “A little vamp, hm?” Ricky mulled that over with a grin. “Brand new too? Well welcome to the dark side, kiddo.” His eyes flickered black to reveal that he was a demon. “I’m older than you’d think but younger than..” He trailed off trying to think of how to gauge his age to someone so young. “Henry VIII.” Ricardo decided, hoping that would give the boy an idea. “But only by a few years.”

      “   yea,  pure,  but  i guess  you  are  much  more  stained  than  clean,  ”   he  chuckled.    “  yea,  a  little  vamp,  i  guess.   not  so  little,   honestly,  i  say  just  new,  ”   he  stated.    “   ooh,  excellent,  are  there  cookies ??  ”   he  teased.    niko  smiled,  looking  at  him.   eyes  widened  when  he  mentioned  he  was  younger  than  a  particular  person.   and  when  he  mentioned  an  ancient  king,  that  was  a  much  surprise.   “   either  you  are  a  very  old  vampire  or  a  demon,  ”   he  whispered.   “  either  way,  you  look  good  for  your  age.  ”

“Well I don’t know about you but I could use something to eat, no sleep plus low energy means time to grab a latte and all the food I can stuff into my face before I throw up.” Peter joked with a chuckle, although he did still intend to grab some food, just not make himself actually sick with it. “Then I dunno, what do you wanna do around the city, I know it pretty well by now so I can show you around.”

      “  alright,  let’s  get  some  food.   well,  for  you  at  least,  my  kind  of  food  is  a  bit  different,  ”   he  smiled.    “  i’m  jealous.   although,  i  will  say,  pizza  for  some  reason  ends  up  being  still  tasty  for  me.   it  just  doesn’t  do  much  for  me,  ”   he  laughed.     “   honestly  that  be  great,  we  can  check  some  of  the  hot  spots.   i  still  don’t  know  much  of  the  area.  ”

alexander--crawford‌:

Chuckling a little at the other stating so matter of factly that since Alex had lived here in the city his entire life, he would have to know the place inside and out. Nodding a little at the other, “I know it it pretty good, I know certain areas better than other areas, that’s certainly a fact.” Giving him a small smile, and another nod, sure Alex would help the other out, that was after all his job, to help the people who lived here in the city. “Sure, though I could show you around, what are you looking to find around the city?” 

     “   well,  what  are  some  of  the  cool  bars  or  clubs  around  here ??  ”   he  asked.   “  or  even  some  of  the  best  spots  to  just  hang  out,  best  coffee  place,  or  a  good  restaurant  that  had  some  good  food.  ”    he  kept  his  gaze  on  the  other.    “    a  pretty  boy  like  you  must  know  where  to  go  to  dance  and  eat.  ”   he  chuckled.    “  unless  you  don’t  do  that  anymore,  you  seem  like  the  upscale  kind  of  guy.  ”

[bbylatu]

victimplagued‌:

how does he manage it? oftentimes, it feels like he is seconds from giving in to the primal urges his body compels him to. nothing feels good about his body convulsing in pain and agony for a mere taste. “honestly, i don’t know how i manage to make do. i just know that i would not be able to forgive myself if i hurt someone and i know… that i would hurt someone.”

      “   you’re  one  of  those  that  can’t  control  themselves  when  they  feed ??  ”    he  asked.    “  i  heard  about  vampires  who  try  as  hard  as  they  can,  but  one  taste  of  human  blood  and  they  go  mad  hungry.   i  luckily  can  control  it,  for  now,  but  i’m  always  afraid  that  one  day  i  won’t  be  able  to.  ”

Ricardo wasn’t usually one to share shit about him, but this kid was curious. “Stuff that would make you nervous to be around me.” He chuckled as he replied pretty vaguely. “Thanks, little red.” He smirked. “Well thanks for saying I look young.” He studied the other for a moment. “You asking if I’m human or not?” His head tilted as he chuckled in surprise. “That’s pretty forward. I think you would answer that first.” Ricky wasn’t dumb, but if the other felt like sharing he may reciprocate.

     “  wow,  so  you’re  one  of  those  guys ??  ”   he  chuckled.   “  alright,  i  won’t  pry  anymore.    i  rather  keep  the  imagine  of  you  pure,  ”   he  teased.    he  knew  that  not  everyone  in  this  place  were  completely  innocent.    neither  was  nikolai,  but  he  at  least  tried  his  best  to  be  a  good  person.   he  smiled  at  the  nickname.    “   well,  you  do.   and  yea,  i  know  not  everyone  is.  ”   he  wasn’t.    “  i’m  a  vamp,  ”   he  whispered.    “   turned  before  this  summer.   i  found  about  this  place  all  in  a  matter  of  months.  ”

vincent-flynn‌:

“I mean I’m a security guard so I can actually help you out with danger.” Vince replied with a smile at the other, surely this whole conversation was turning quite funny at least it appeared to him that way. “Sure, it also is a great excuse to get to know you better, after all it’s not every day that I get to meet a nice handsome vampire at the park.”

     “   well,  i  guess  i  found  a  perfect  guy  for  this,  ”  he  chuckled.   he  looked  over  at  the  other  when  he  spoke  again.   he  was  glad  he  met  the  other  male.   “   you  want  to  get  to  know  me ??   i’m  glad.   i  want  to  get  to  know  you  too.  ”    he  smiled  as  he  continued  to  walk.
