“Are you seriously just getting back now ?” Brian asked, a judgemental tone to his voice. Blinking at him, Freddie said, “Do I look like I’ve been out?”

Inspired by "It's Late" by @your-one-day-ecstasy. This fic cracked me up.

My entry for Maycury Week 2022 organised by @rhyewritersstudio , featuring Witch Freddie and Vampire Brian from my Witches×Monsters AU 💕

"If we can find a place we actually belong, where we're at peace, who's to deny us?"

I really wanted to make something new with my Witches×Monsters AU (that you can read here!) and I thought this was a perfect occasion to explore Brian and Freddie's bond in this story. If you thought I forgot about this AU you're wrong, and I hope to be able to create more content for it soon 🥺💕 I loved drawing this and I'm incredibly happy with the result!

Please do not trace or repost! Reblogs and comments are welcomed! 💜

I wrote a lil drabble under the cut, nothing new if you know this AU but I feel it's a nice extra 🥰 It’s set when the boys are already at the Witches’ cottage, a safe place where all of them can be themselves and practice magic without Hunters around, but Brian still needs a boost to his confidence and some reassuring words.

Brian had just woken up, the Sun almost setting on the horizon before leaving space to the Moon and the darkness she carried with her. It was a bit early for him, but Chrissie was already cooking and the broth’s scent filled Brian's nostrils, though it wasn't enough to lighten his mood.

He sat on a bench in the garden, admiring the setting Sun, and missing the real warmth of the day. It was another gloomy moment for him, his still heart constantly aching for being a Vampire, a curse imposed on him against his will.

When he walked out the cottage as well, Freddie noticed Brian's dark face and sat next to him. For the past few years he blamed himself for Mary's attack against Brian, her choice of turning him into a vampire and not Freddie; she was Freddie's friend, but that was a betrayal and he put a hex on her to keep her afar, and yet he still felt it was his fault if Brian was now cursed. But it wasn't the only reason for his care about Brian, his friendship was genuine since when Bri was still a human.

"Hey, Bri."

Brian's red eyes glowed in the sunset, warm and kind despite the color, and Freddie smiled.

"Freddie." He nodded, his curls bouncing. "Sorry, it seems today I'm missing the Sun and the brightness of the daylight."

"You know you don't have to excuse yourself with me, darling." Freddie nudged his arm and Bri gave him a sheepish smile, his pointy canines poking out his lips. "What else is troubling you?"

"I... I don't know, I feel getting blood from Chrissie as well is unfair, she and the other girls are sheltering us and I'd want to help instead of making her weaker." He murmured, aware that he needed blood to survive and that Freddie and Chrissie were offering their blood to drink every once in a while, when the animal prey caught by the Werewolves weren’t enough.

Freddie shook his head, acknowledging Brian’s troubles. "I saw her, she's doing well! But... if you want to help, just go inside and give her a hand with the dinner!" He suggested. More than often Brian needed a distraction to his own thoughts, let it be music, astronomy, or -more recently- Chrissie herself.

"Freddie?" The Vampire stretched his skinny arms.

"Yes?"

"Do you think I'll be useful to the group one day? John and Roger are skilled and powerful Werewolves, you and the girls are amazing Witches... and I'm just a sad Vampire." He moped, earning a patient eye roll from Freddie, framed by a thick line of kohl. 

"You're not just a sad Vampire, Brian!" The Witch placed a friendly hand on his back in a soothing gesture. "You're our friend and I love you no matter what!"

Freddie inflated his hairy chest, doing everything he could to boost his best friend’s confidence, being earnest about his feelings and just letting him know that he was there, as always, a steady point in their lives. 

"You're intelligent and have a heart of gold, Brian, and I'm sure one day you'll be able to master all your Vampire powers and turn your sorrow into art, as we all do. And it'll be brighter than everyone's, I tell you!" He gave Brian a huge bright smile, showing his teeth he was usually so shy about, and a small light started glowing in Brian’s still heart.

"Do you really believe it, Freddie?"

"Absolutely. Look into my eyes, Bri. You can do anything! And if you have any doubt or fear... we're all here for you."

Freddie’s heart clenched, listening to Brian play.

Had he always known Freddie so well or...

How had Freddie not ever really noticed that?
