@razorcrst​​​ (Luke) said “wipe that nervous expression off your face.”

“I’m not nervous...I just haven’t had my coffee yet.” Nick lied, hoping that the excuse would satisfy his boyfriend. In actuality, he was nervous; he always was  on the first day of classes, even as a professor. Every class was different, every student a potential new face, and as much as he didn’t like admitting it to himself, the thought did put him on edge a little. At least once he actually got into the classroom and got started he’d be fine.

closed blood rave starter for @strongxsurvivors​​ (Younis)

When Nick had heard about the rave, he was intrigued; he’d gone to raves before, but he didn’t think he’d ever been to one catering mostly to vampires. As a result, he decided to check it out. And since it was the weekend, he didn’t have to worry about any classes the next day. Upon walking in, he decided to get a drink. Going over to the bar, he sat down and looked over the menu. However, as he looked up to order, someone a few stools over caught his attention. Nick recognized the other; he was a fellow professor that he’d mostly seen in passing. Quickly he ordered and decided to go change his seat. “Hey!” He greeted with a grin. “Do you mind if I join you?”

@lostothers​ (Baz) said “danger and i are old companions”

Nick nodded as he listened to the other’s words. He could definitely relate, since he’d gotten into dangerous situations as a soldier. And although he’d tried to avoid it afterwards, due to his vampirism, danger sometimes came his way. “That makes two of us.” He said with a chuckle. “Why are you friends with danger?”

@catcherisms​ (Jitae) said “friends aren’t allowed to kiss one another.”

“I wouldn’t say friends aren’t allowed to, since there’s no rule against it.” Nick said before taking a sip of his coffee. “But usually they don’t, because it could ruin a friendship.” Thankfully he was lucky enough to be on good terms with the exes he had. But he’d seen enough movies to know that it didn’t always turn out that way. “However, if you’re willing to take a risk, it could turn the friendship into something more. It all depends.” He said with a shrug.
