God? Maybe.

"We continue to recognize the greater ability of some to earn more than others. But we do assert that the ambition of the individual to obtain for him a proper security is an ambition to be preferred to the appetite for great wealth and great power." Godfrey, 107, Vampire, Busan, the best chef you'll ever meet.

“you’re a vampire that cooks?” he asked. the ambiguous tone of voice teetered on a tightrope between skepticism and admiration. yonghwa quickly buttons up the white collar shirt and zones out, simply enjoying the quality material sliding over his skin. a pair of black dress pants followed after and the merman had never felt more dapper in his life.

“how long have you been cooking, young master?” he asked curiously, “ah yes, i’ll be sure to listen carefully.” his words are short, polite, and too the point despite his mind whirling at a mile a minute.

[mxgodfrey-blog]

"why yes, i am.” he replied calmly as he lead the way to the large kitchen that was further towards the front of his fairly sized home, he wove a hand dismissively. “ironic, yes, but it is a passion and at the expensive of being narcissistic, i am very, very good.”

pulling out the tools he’d need to prep the meal, he pointed to the kitchen table. “sit.” he ordered yonghwa, leaning over the counter to meet eyes with the older man.

“tell me, what is the greatest meal you’ve had?”

[yfxkyungtak-deactivated20161007]

By instinct Jaeho knows to be wary; he scrunches up his nose when an unwelcoming smell comes his way, sucking in a breath before he faces the man. It’s better than giving him his back for now.

“Maybe. But I can handle myself.” He speaks with confidence, “People don’t usually show their concern for someone’s safety by following them, you know that?”

[mxgodfrey-blog]

“Think of it less as a concern, more a simple observation, yes?” Godfrey shrugged as his eyes peeked down at the watch on his wrist, quickly back up to Jaeho where he passed a small, far from assuring smile.

“You sound confident, very admirable.” he confessed, his voice was cool. “Your name?”

midnight | jaeho & godfrey

@mxgodfrey​

Jaeho doesn’t mind a casual stroll most nights. Most nights. There were only a few obvious exceptions, and one of them happens to be that awful feeling of being watched. It makes the hair stand on the back of his neck, teeth grinding against each other as he attempts to keep himself calm. Canines biting the inside of his cheek when he makes the decision to look over his shoulder.

“Hello?” At first his voice is just above a whisper, and he realizes that a second later before his lips part again, “Do you need something?”

[mxgodfrey-blog]

Night was typically the normal time for Godfrey to be out and about, roaming the streets with the occasional malicious intent. Strolling through the darkness with his hands in his pockets, he’d had his eyes on a young man for quite some time now. Sure, he didn’t plan on biting him, after all, he didn’t smell all that appetizing...but...it didn’t mean Godfrey couldn’t play a little game, did it?

S i l e n c e

The tall mans eyes followed the other who looked over his shoulder, questioning the person he must have felt following him.

“You know, it’s fairly dangerous to be out strolling at this time of night, isn’t it?”

“of course, young master,” he said. yonghwa’s powerful tail dissolved into clumsy human legs and he carefully climbed out of the bathtub. he slipped on the suit and the expensive fabric swallowed his body, looking more like a curtain on his smaller frame. the hem ended just above the shivering merman’s wobbling knees, which quickly lost color from lack of heat.

“master godfrey?” he asked, his voice meek and hesitant, “is it alright…is it alright if i have something to eat first?” the merman’s hollow stomach growled once more, almost like a reminder it’s been ignored for almost a full week.

[mxgodfrey-blog]

godfrey sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose at the question and the loud sound of the growl that had escaped that beautiful creature called a mans stomach. “yes, of course. i’m not going to starve you, i’ll go over the rules while i cook.” he replied, plucking up the clothes he’d just washed for the other man up and handing them over.

“put these on, you’ll be far warmer, you look like you may turn blue any moment. you can’t clean if you’re blue, so do as you’re told.”

[cckento]

[cckento]

the manservant didn’t like to be manhandled. although to be fair, the merman was a very fine man to handle. his squeaking, mewling protests were drowned out by the sound of his tail slapping against the water. the limb thrashed against the water out of reflex, resulting in most of the bathwater spilling over the other side.by the end of their scuffle, a very clean merman with the essence of mangoes sat shivering in a porcelain tub. he looked up at the vampire with a pained expression rivaling that of a wet cat; his lower lip jutted out into a wobbly pout, his drooping eyes pleaded for mercy, a pitiful blush colored his cheeks, and his stomach gave a rumble.  “a-a-all clean, young master,” he sniffed. he knew better than to ask if they prolong the ritual to every five days instead.

[mxgodfrey-blog]

the tall man sighed when the other began to shiver, lower lip jutting out and a sad blush coloring his cheeks, this was d e s p i c a b l e. slipping his suit jacket off, he tossed it over to the pitiful man shivering in the porcelain tub. “put this on, get out.” he demanded, rolling his sleeves up and crossing his arms.

“as soon as you...have that tail under control and are dressed, I will give you the house rules and you will get straight to work. got it?” narrowing his eyes at the other, he clapped his hands together. “what are you waiting for?!”

Kidneys, Eyes, Scars

Kidneys: What is your worst habit?

It would most likely be checking his watch. He does it so often that people assume he’s busy or not interested in talking, although that isn’t always the case.

Eyes: What has changed from how you see the world now and how you saw it 5 years ago?

If there were anything, it would definitely be his restaurant popularity spiking, he’s seeing the business part of the world completely differently now that it has to be run differently and with other people.

Scars: Is there anything you want to confess?

Godfrey is very secretive, but if there was anything he could confess, it’s that he’s always been curious about the taste of another vampires blood.

“understood,” he said, “i’ll mark it on my calendar so i won’t forget.” simply because the merman was required to do something didn’t mean that he’d have to like it. he suppressed a grimace and dunked himself under the water. within seconds his tail emerged and slapped against the water, sending a spray of bubbles at his new master. it was like bathing a reluctant cat who had the messiness of a puppy.

[mxgodfrey-blog]

godfrey blinked quickly as the water from the tub sprayed out, soaking his fresh suit and hair; the look on his face was far from pleased. narrowing those dark eyes and dropping to his knees—a place he didn’t particularly find himself very often, fingers lacing through the mermans hair and dunking him under, scrubbing the soap into his hair a bit too much.

“since apparently you cannot bathe yourself properly, it seems as though i’ll have to t e a c h you.”

[gray-hawthorne]

Only time…oh. Jaewook sighed, wanting to smack himself. With his own distraction, he had become so unfocused that he hadn’t even noticed what the other was. Rain certainly was helpful to their kind. However, the chance of the sun returning was always high.

“Fresh air can be had at night when there are twelve hours of safety. Why venture out now?”

[mxgodfrey-blog]

“I like the day time.” he replied thoughtfully, shrugging ever so slightly as his eyes twitched down at his watch and back up. “It’s something I miss, I suppose. I always liked watching the sunrise, at night the town is asleep and it gets...boring.” he said, careful with his definition, he didn’t like using the term lonely as it rarely fit him.

“How about you? What brings you out at this time?”

[cckento]

manservant // godfrey

[cckento]

“i’ll do as i’m told and i wouldn’t dare disobey a direct order from the young master,” he said carefully. the merman slumped further into the tub, bringing his lips to the waterline so he could blow bubbles. all the soaps, suds, and salts covered him modestly. but truthfully, the merman wouldn’t care if he was stark naked; it was a fake body.

[mxgodfrey-blog]

godfrey nodded and rose a brow at the bubbles the merman blew, it wasn’t the first time he’d seen another man like this...however, it was the first time it was under...these circumstances. “you do understand you’ll have to do this at least every three days, correct?” he asked, looking down at his watch.

        It was another simple & boring day as Sungkyung adventured on, obviously completely overjoyed with the fact of another grey day in another grey mood. Maybe she should have done something else besides unsheathe herself slightly, becoming a light translucent vessel as she walked aimlessly.  Her head was tilted towards the ground as she carried on, completely oblivious to what was in front of her before she felt the presence of someone moving right through her.  Her manifestation rippled and she felt some of her energy give way as her hands became even more transparent. Sungkyung’s annoyance spiked, unseen fume escaping her ears. 

     “Walking through someone is rude and offensive.”  She bellowed.

[mxgodfrey-blog]

         Thankful for one of the few days he could go out, the sun was completely covered by the clouds, but he still carried around that old all too large umbrella he always had with him. He didn’t particularly want to be out today, but as it did, life got in the way and the restaurant was low on things he’d needed to go out and buy.

He walked at a quick pace through the streets of Busan, mind racing a million miles a minute as he thought of all the things he’d needed that day, all while worrying about the sun. He’d felt like he’d pushed right past something, an energy of sorts, and when a voice came out of nowhere, he knew exactly what was going on. 

“It wouldn’t happen if you watched where you were and I don’t know, made yourself visible to other people.”

[mxgodfrey-blog]

—Strolling

[gray-hawthorne]

Jaewook nodded, mind already wandering back to the rain even as the other’s umbrella suddenly covered him. Was he really so wet that this stranger was taking pity on him? Well, he would rather be wet than burned by the sun. “Thank you.” A smile of his own sat on his face.

“Jaewook. Likewise.” Firm grip, yet relaxed. His uncle’s words echoed through his mind even after centuries. “What brings you out into this wonderful weather?”

[mxgodfrey-blog]

Godfrey nodded to the other man and tilted his head for a moment at the question, what was he doing out, really? Aimlessly wandering around town, trying to get the little bits of fresh air he could on rainy days like this, running into people, the list was endless.

“Fresh air, ironically. The only time it seems I can get it is when it’s raining like this.”

he suppressed the strangled, mewling sound in the back of his throat and ended his protests. the merman doesn’t trust treated waters; ever since he reacted badly to pool water, he’s avoided anything that wasn’t a lake, pond, or the ocean itself at all costs. “you are correct, young master,” he said quietly. with that, he hesitantly allowed himself to be dunked into the water. as much as he hated to admit it, the warm water, soaps, and bath salts did ease the pain in his bruised torso.

[mxgodfrey-blog]

“see, it’s not so bad.” he commented, leaning against the door frame and finally exhaling. he hated the smell of fish, and now that he’d thought about it, hiring a merman wasn’t the best when it came to that. however, godfrey wasn’t the type of man to hire and fire, he had faith in the young merman and his abilities as a manservant. “if i leave the room, are you going to stay in the water?” he asked, suspiciously narrowing his eyes at the other.

[cckento]

…

“Why do the bubbles smell like mangoes?” he asked,·“That’s not natural! Is this water filtered? Chlorine isn’t good for my skin!” The merman’s legs kicked feebly underneath him, then pulled up tight to his chest in a desperate attempt to avoid the water. He didn’t appreciate a vampire dangling him over a steaming tub like he was some mangy cat. “Why do you need separate soap for your hair if there’s already soap in the tub?” he whined, “Why–no, I’ll stop whining! Young Master, no no no no nonononono."·

[mxgodfrey-blog]

“my memory might be going bad,” he paused, tapped his head and thought for a moment. “i swear, i remember you saying you needed this job, maybe i’m wrong? please, refresh my mind.” he replied, dropping his head and giving the other a look from under his lashes. “bathing in mandatory, everybody does it, you should too.”
