pairing: vampire!Technobalde x mortal!squidkid
------------------------π------------------------
Technoblade enters home, and from the looks of it Phil is out, his cloak is gone. Good sign Technoblade needs a break from Phil, and doesn't want his cake questioned.
He heads upstairs to him large room, when he gets their he sets his cake down next to the one from last night smiling at his little collection.
"Squid huh?.. Cute.. Strange name but cute." The vampire says to no one as he sits on his bed before realizing what he said. "God you idiot what are you thinking!?"
"He's a fucking mortal! You can't... Don't be an idiot.." He falls back on his bed running his hands through his long hair. "You can't.. What are these feelings..maybe I should tell Phil.. He's good with this stuff..."
---------------------------------------------------
The next night techno finds Phil in his office reading, he swears it's all he ever does. "Phil... Can we talk?" He says, almost sounding like a little kid.
"Yeah.. What's wrong?" Phil sets his book down as techno sits in one of the chairs lazily. "I think something's wrong with me.."
"Okay, that's very vague." The older vampire comments sitting up straighter. "Well.. There's this person..um.. A friend in some ways.. And I just get a strange feeling when I'm around them.."
"Can you describe the feeling at all?" Techno asks and techno let's his head falls back looking at the ceiling in thought. "Somewhere between... Affection, anger. And hunger."
The older vampire just stares at his for moment, almost surprised. " are you telling me you have a crush on someone?" He asks and techno freezes.
"You're saying like?.. Like love?.. No. No. Thats not it." The younger vampire says defensively and techno sighs pinching the bridge of his nose. "Okay, describe this person to me."
"Well.. He's nice, honest, doesn't censor himself, cute.." Techno says and Phil takes a deep breath at how phased out techno looks as he describes the man "okay.. And no one describes someone with that look in their eyes unless they're in love."
Technoblade just looks at the older vampire annoyed "Phil take this seriously please, I can't be in love with him." Techno huffs and Phil raked his hand over his face
"I hate to break it to you but it's what it sounds like." Phil looks at the other vampire who slumps in his chair. "I can't be in love.. It doesn't make sense at all."
"Well who is he? Can I meet him?" Phil asks and Technoblade is immediately tense. "No. Absolutely not." He hisses glaring at the older vampire.
"And why not?" Phil asks and Technoblade just takes a deep breath, he can't tell Phil it's a mortal, he'd freak out. "It's..complicated.. I just can't okay."
"It's a human isn't it?" Phil asks suspiciously and techno just looks at him, debating on whether or not to admit it. "...yes." He mutters and Phil takes a deep breath.
"Techno.. This never ends well. You remember what happened-" Phil begins and he cuts him off "yes I remember!... I know it's a problem.." "It's not a problem... Just be careful"
---------------------------------------------------
Technoblade walks back towards the bakery, he knows what Phil said, He knows it's true, he needs to be careful but he told him he'd seem him tonight. And Phil wanted to meet the mortal, despite Technoblade's protests.
"So... What's his name?" Phil asks in a almost teasing tone and Technoblade glares at him. "Squid." "Squid? That's a strange name?" Phil comments and while it's true the pink haired vampire glares daggers at him, making the older vampire chuckle at his annoyance.
As they enter the shop both of their eyes land on squid as he moved around and looks up at them. "Welcome back-.. Who's you're friend?" Squid asks looking at Phil who smiles brightly.
"My name's Phil, you're squid correct?" Phil asks shaking his hand and squid nods shaking his hand before pausing. "Wait.. How do you know my name?"
"Right. Sorry.. I heard you mutter it last night." Techno explains and squid shakes his head smiling. "No need to apologize, but I never caught you're name?" The mortal asks, clearly a question more then a statement.
"Techno." The vampire answers quickly and squid smiles while Phil Snickers, he knows why, he never introduces himself as just techno, t's always his full name, only Phil and and one other person call him techno.
"Shut up." Techno hisses as Phil stifles his laughter. "I didn't say anything." Phil smiles and techno rolls his eyes.
-----------------------π-------------------------
Squid watches the two men share something like some sort of joke between them he doesn't understand. 'I really don't understand this guy..or his friend.'
"Umm..what would you two like?" Squid asks and they both look back at him, Phil looking at the case of cakes then at the man. "Oh..you're a baker?" The strange man asks
"Uhh.. Yes?" 'How would this man not know that? He's standing in my bakery?' Phil turns away trying not to laugh looking at techno who just silently glares at him, must be some kind of inside joke.
"Anything you think I should try?" Techno, asks, and squid reaches into the case and grabs a cookie handing it to him as Phil takes a deep breath. "I'll also have one of those as well." Phil says and he reaches in grabbing another cookie and handing it to Phil.
The two men pay and tip, quite nicely actually and wave as the walk out, and as squid goes to walk away he swears catches a glimpse of techno looking back at him.
He walks to the back checking his cakes. 'Techno... What a weird name.'
------------------------π-----------------------
"So that's where you got the fucking cakes?!" Phil asks laughing as he leans against the wall, of course the old vampire finds it funny. "Yeah, so what?" Techno asks defensively.
"And you told him just techno? Oh god... That's too much." Phil nearly doubles over laughing. "Yeah yeah I'm so hilarious. Haha." Techno crosses his arms, waiting for him to be done
"You done laughing so we can go get food?" Techno asks as Phil takes a deep breath. "Yeah..yeah let's eat." Phil wipes a tear of laughter away from his eye as he sighs.
"Though seriously, collecting sweets in you're room is really unhealthy and unsanitary." Phil says walking next to his friend who just sighs. "Oh, go to hell."
