✝     ——— "This... is the worst thing that's ever happened to me." Cue the vampire falling to his knees, white hair pouring down the slope of his shoulders like a blanket of snow as his head hangs low, anguish swelling in his throat.

It almost looks like he might be crying for a second, before those glossy bluebell eyes flicker upwards, wet and pleading, lacking its usual predatory spark as he clutches to his white designer shirt like a dying rabbit. "How bad is it?" He asks in a teary voice, clutching the red bloodstain between his fingertips. "Tell me the truth."

Date Night

Closed starter for @ultio-angelus s Blitzø

Despite his rugged and stubborn persona. Striker was an Imp who enjoyed cleaning up nice for the right occasions, so when a text came though from Blitz after over a month of the boss imp having his number, asking the cowboy if he'd be fine going to a decently classy restaurant together,Striker was admittedly excited and made sure to prepare, showering the day of and combing his hair to be a bit less messy then normal, and suited up in a fancy but not gaudy western outfit.

Colored a dark teal with matching chaps over tight brown pants. The shirt and chaps being form fitting to begin with and loosening out in the sleeves and pant legs so he had frilled sleeves and pants. Swapping out his usual boots for brown ankle boots with chunky riding heels. The pants sleeves and collar of the outfit having some fancy fringe lining the sides. Despite his fancy glow up he still wore his usual hat, bandanna and fingerless gloves. Throwing on a brown coat before leaving to meet Blitz with a confident grin on his face. He certainly looked eccentric to most but anyone who knew Wrathian culture would know he put real effort into this look and by extension this event meant a lot to him.

He drove to the restraunt and found Blitz outside by looking for the form of his horns. Seeing him in a big black coat was a surprise. Sneaking up on the boss Imp and hugging him from behind with a snicker "Hey there Boss man~ Hope I didn't keep you waiting long~"The cowboy teased as he held Blitz close to his chest.

✨🌌Full Moon🌌✨

A starter for @ultio-angelus's Blitzo

Stolas knew everything there was to know about the moon. Its size, its weight, its movements in the sky. He knew exactly the wattage of light it reflected off the sun on any given night. So Stolas knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that the moon wasn't shining any brighter this evening than it had on the night of every full moon since he'd began this accursed arrangement.

So why did it feel so bright? He felt the glow of moonlight following his every step as he paced his own bedroom, talons making a soft agitated clacking on the floor. It felt like a spotlight, beaming in through the colored panels of stained glass, illuminating a different insecurity with every brilliantly lit hue its light projected onto the floor.

He heard the great clock chime in the hall. The sound made him jump. Nine pm. It was time. Any moment now, Blitz would come scampering up over the railing of his balcony, despite being told time and time again that he was free to use the front door. The back door. The side door. Any door he chose really. But Blitz was stubborn like that. It was one of the things Stolas found so endearing about him, really. He never let anyone or their lousy opinons bully him into changing....well anything. Everything Blitz did he did his way, and wholeheartedly. He was brave and so oddly compassionate and stalwart and so handsome and oh SATAN he was down bad wasn't he? And if this was it....if Blitz never spoke to him again.....he began to wring his primary feathers in anxiety as he felt himself spiraling into a deep dark pit of anxiety that had him curled up in the freezer earlier that day.

No.

He cut off those trains of thought.

He couldn't do that. Not today. Today he had to do what was right. He had to make sure Blitz was safe...even if that meant losing the one man who'd even allowed Stolas to feel like himself.

He turned to the mirror, straightened himself up, fixed his hair, and adjusted the twisted ruffle at the bottom of one of his poet sleeved blouse. Paired with one of his simpler red waistcoats, it was a modest outfit, by his recent standards, but it fitted the way he wanted to present himself tonight; sincere.

Feeling slightly more put together and with the panic attack held at bay for the moment, Stolas made his way to the French doors that led out to his balcony, and with quiet resolve, he flung them open, stepping out of the mottled colors of the stained glass and into the cool, white, natural moonlight that bathed the whole balcony in a glow as bright as day. Any moment, the absolute love of his life would be coming over that white marble railing, likely for the last time. But he could do this. Whatever happened, he was ready. He would make this whole thing right by the light of this too bright full moon.

Vampire Kendra AU

since i started watching buffy about a month ago, i thought it was such a shame that kendra got killed off with only 3 episodes of screentime. i thought she had a lot of potential as a character. and i think the best way to still have the emotional impact of her death and still have faith as a character (i like her alot haha) would be for kendra to be turned into a vampire. i saw people online saying the same thing but not much about how she would be like as a character if she turned. so i decided to try to take it upon myself. sorry if it's worded awkwardly i'm not the best writer.

for starters, beginning in kendra's first appearance in 02x09, she would take up a main character role for the rest of season 2. she decides she would temporarily stay in sunnydale and not return to jamaica until the main threat is resolved. i think it would give more time to expand on kendra's character pre-turn to see what her 'base personality' is like and her dynamic with the other scoobies.

and of course instead of kendra dying in 02x21, drusilla sires her into a vampire.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

drusilla would sire kendra in an attempt to expand her family (the whirlwind/fanged four) after the death of darla and having angelus finally return to make them a proper family again. kendra would like their new daughter.

since everyone in the fanged four gained a new name after becoming a vampire (except drusilla? i dont think the story ever says whether or not that was always her name) its only fitting kendra gets one too. i decided on kennie because compared to darla/drusilla/spike/angel she wasn't introduced to the story as a vampire with a vampire name and having a name far too different from kendra would be too jarring i think.

kennie at the end of season 2 would run off with drusilla and spike where they decide to travel to jamaica due to that being her home country. (much to spike's dismay)

when they arrive in jamaica, drusillas first target is kennie's family. they find where her family lives only for kennie to see that they moved on from her and got a new child to raise. in a violent fit of jealousy and hunger, kennie kills her own family. then course she goes after her watcher and the watcher council.. alot of the vampires tend to go after the same kind of victims and for kennie she would target families/authority figures.

what i struggled with the most with vampire kendra was deciding how exactly her personality would be like. if vampires are meant to be the worst aspects of someone exaggerated and no longer have any remorse or guilt, how do you find the dark side of a character that barely ever was one? ontop of that kendra is so absorbed in strictly doing her duty and only that with no sense of freedom. how does she act when she is free of not being a slayer? and at the same time not too similar to faith's character and story?

kendra has the slayer code so embodied in her core she still wanted to hunt vampires and demons despite being a vampire; only does she change her tune after drusilla convinces her to rethink. she went from obediantely following someone to trade it for another. then she becomes curious and philosophical. she's trying all and everything to see what she likes and doesn't like. she grew up too fast and was forced to be a weapon from birth; her vampire self is her exploring her childhood and teenhood. shes so so childish. she uses human lives to play dolls with. she craves parental affection and approval. she throws tantrums when she doesn't get her way. she plays silly games and competitions. she doesn't know how to handle her emotions. she's arrogant. enjoys fighting so so much. she's even a monster nerd. (had no other books or stories to read or see)

drusilla would be a manipulative abusive mother to kennie. think makima/blood on the tracks type beat. she gifts all the things a child would typically want. well with a sick twist because shes a vampire but you get it lmfao. drusilla would get her some of the dolls she likes to collect. a beautiful room and all the affection she could dream of. well atleast if she fits her role as a child and follows everything drusilla says. <3

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and then kendra gets back her soul in some way or another. i haven't figured out when exactly in the buffy timeline it would happen or how she would gain it back but she would.

kendra would get back to her former self and start slaying again but with a whole bunch of self hatred and guilt now. it's not just her sense of duty as a slayer but with her wanting to escape her thoughts and trying to redeem for all she did.

kendra would regularly self-harm; she bites and cuts herself for blood and with her immorality it just heals back. she wears a cross despite the burning pain she feels, or rather wears it for the pain. she's perhaps the only vampire that's willing to regularly go out in the daytime regularly with a huge umbrella. the only blood she drinks are from animals, vampires and demons. (i have no idea if thats nourishing for vampires)

buffy and faith would try to relate to her pain; they both have darkness inside of them (one thats more external than the other but thats neither here nor there) but they could never understand. they're still human and she's not. she's transformed permanently into a monster.

i think most of all of what pains her is that she can't bring herself to ever return to her homecountry, jamaica, after all she did there. and that deep down, turning into a vampire and being kennie was the best time of her life.

i might be the first person lmfao to ever make this ship but who gafs i can make yuri out of anything. kennedy/kendra. just listen ok imagine a world where kennedy became a new character in s6 due to buffy dying and creating a new slayer which is kennedy. and um yeah i was thought of it because they're both gay and slayers

(i dont really like how it looks but its done so whatever. don't expect any more art from me i hate drawing digitally)

@ultio-angelus liked for a starter

"You really can't get rid of me stolas no matter how hard you try." Now he was very much getting a taste of his own medicine with how much stolas had blown up his phone in the past and he wound up ignored. "And you really think I was gonna let that asshole dance with my bird? Yeah no way in hell is that happening."

Standing at the edge of the Bifrost, the Great Mage Angelus felt a strange sense of both awe and confusion wash over him. The vibrant rainbow bridge stretched out before him, glimmering with mystical energy as it connected the vast realms of the cosmos. Angelus, clad in a pristine white suit that shimmered with gold decorations, gazed into the unknown, his long red hair flowing behind him like a cascade of flame. A majestic mantle hung from his shoulders.

In his hand, he held his golden sun staff, an artifact of immense power that hummed with the very essence of magic itself. It was his constant companion, the tool through which he had shaped his destiny for centuries. Yet, as he stood on this strange and unfamiliar plane, Angelus couldn’t shake the feeling that he was out of place.

His face, obscured by a golden tuxedo mask, concealed his expressions, but his piercing blue eyes scanned the landscape, taking in the grandeur of the realm. The world around him seemed to hum with the very energy of the divine. Towering golden structures, shining like stars against the violet sky, stood in stark contrast to the rolling fields of emerald green. The air crackled with power, and yet, it was unlike any magic he had ever felt.

"Oh Dear... I've a feeling I'm no longer in kansas" Angelus whispered to himself..

💖🎩A Game of Cat and Spider🎩💖

A starter for @ultio-angelus 's Husker

Angel was no stranger to being loaned out for whatever purposes Valentino required of him. The overlord who owned him frequently used his porn superstar and favorite personal sex toy as a bargaining chip in striking deals. He'd sweeten the pot with a night or two of an all access Angel Dust pass, or pass him around at networking parties, for people to use him like a perry favor. Hell, one time Val had convinced a poor porn addiction to sell his soul for a week doing whatever he wanted to Angel. But this wasn't like that. Something was up. Val's underlings, who were always in charge of dressing and prepping him for such encounters seemed...scared. And they weren't packing his duffel bag full of fantastical costumes and sex toys....they were stuffing it with his few personal effects. The few clothes that he owned. His little notebook and good fountain Pen. The Saint Anthony metal from the human world. And no one would tell him where he was going while they dressed him. But he'd never been put in such somber clothes before. All black tiny shorts, an indecent white button up, and plain ass makeup? Who's sexual fantasy was that bland?

Val's little minions all scattered when he came in to inspect Angel's look, just like he did before every shoot or event or client. They always did that. Val was an intimidating overlord. But there was something off about him today. He seemed....scared. That was a terrible thought. Anything that could scare Valentino was a level of horrific that Angel didn't want to consider.

"Anjelito...." He said, and if Angel wasn't crazy he sounded almost...sad. Regretful. The man who willingly beat him, raped him, whored him out and filled him full of pheromones and Coke. "You're leaving me today baby. You're going to go belong to someone else now. Daddy lost a game to another overlord. He owns your contract now baby."

Angel was taken back. There was no way Valentino was just going to give away his favorite toy and highest earning sex doll. But yet, here he was being dragged down the hall by imps, away from a distraught and cowed looking Valentino, and tossed into a limo with his little duffel bag.

The door slammed behind him, and he felt the car take off like a shot, slamming angel down onto the floor of the Limousine and right onto someone's feet.

No, not feet.

Paws.

When his mismatched eyes adjusted to the dim light inside the vehicle he saw the demon looking down at him. The holder of his new contract. His new overlord; A pissed off looking winged cat in a tuxedo, taking a long sip from a lowball glass.

Rekindled Lovers || starter for @sageofjustice

Not many things could shake the Hydro Dragon to his core and while several events in Fontaine came close, none were as close as seeing the ghost of an old love. Purples hues blinked in disbelief for a moment, wondering if his eyes were playing tricks on him. Memories nearly forgotten began to rush to the surface like a geyser ready to overflow. Crimson red hair and an outfit of pure white and gold. There was no way he was still alive, right?

Paperwork in hand completely forgotten about as it falls from his grip as Neuvillette hurriedly made his way down the steps of Palis Mermonia. He had to be quick if he were to catch the other man. Once close enough, a gloved hand reached out and took hold of the redhead's arm.

"Angelus?" was all that came out when he tried to speak, a skeptical, but hopeful look in his eyes. Please let it be him.

Starter for @ultio-angelus from Lilith Eve!

Back in Hell after all. But this time it was hers. It felt wrong though. Being here like this. She wouldn't admit it though. Not to anyone but herself. She felt like she was in a foreign land. In a place that wanted to welcome her. She felt a pang of ache for her gardens. However, she pulled herself up. She was Lilith. Queen of Hell. And Lucifer's wife. She was confident, bold, rebellious. She did and took what she wanted.

She was familiar enough with her own powers and had played with Lilith's enough to know how to use them. So she teleported herself right to the manor. How would she knock? Would Lilith just walk in? Probably... However she couldn't quite bring herself to just walk in. So she knocked twice on the door a quick, strong knock before opening the door. "Darling?" She called out, it was still weird hearing the other woman's voice when she spoke. Even after seven years.

Chaz took a chug of the water bottle he always brought with him, running out and sighing, well noone had come to his part of the long bar for a bit so he went to head to the bathroom, staying behind the bar to exit closer to the way to the bathroom. Chaz usually had other bartenders he chatted with but as he got close to the end of the bar he saw one he hadn't seen before.

Well... not here at least.

The vibrant red skin with white splotches with the large horns sparked his memory, Chaz setting his water bottle down before strutting up to him and slinging an arm over the Imp's shoulder "Dickzy Blitzy~! What a pleasant surprise to see you here! How have you been, apologies for my little mess, but it's good to see you again, you one of the other bartenders here?" Chaz said with a friendly smile, his tail swaying behind him happily as he had his arm around Blitz.

📌🌆Helluva Office Job🌆📌

A Starter for @arrapante-angelo and @ultio-angelus

Stolas was shocked to hear that Loona was the one who'd been using his grimoire all that time.

It came up late one evening after he and Blitz had been out to a very nice dinner, and came home, tipsy and happy. They were still working on the parameters of this whole "dating" thing after their rocky start and plenty of misunderstandings but that was what mattered. They were both trying, and lately, it seemed, they were succeeding.

When they stumbled in the door, they found their daughters, standing in the center of the foyer, surrounded by candles, around half of which were lit. Octavia was standing with Loona in the middle of it all, seemingly correcting the way Loona pointing at one of the candles. They were rapt in concentration on one of the nearest candles....an unlit one.

"Good evening, Ladies." He intoned. Both girls nearly jumped three feet in the air in surprise. "Anyone care to tell me why there's half a bonfire in the entry hall?"

"Shit sorry..." Loona began, but Octavia barreled right past her, throwing her arms around her dad in excitement.

"Dad Dad dad!" She hooted with glee. "Loona's got magic! Loona's got MAGIC, dad!!! Like us!! Look! Show them, Loon!!"

The owlet was practically vibrating with excitement and she ran back to Loona's side and pointed at the unlit candle. Loona looked back and forth between the two men nervously, then to Via, who nodded her encouragement. Then she focused on the candle. She squinted, seemingly struggling, then, a few moments later a sort of black shimmer appeared around it....and it lit itself! Via cheered. Stolas clapped his hands with glee. Loona looked shyly pleased with the praise.

The girls explained how Loona had been talking about how she was always the one to open portals for IMP cause she was just good at it...and Octavia decided to test her for magic power and...lol and behold....they'd been having little magic lessons for hours.

"Dad.... we've got to get her enrolled in a magic academy." Via insisted. "She's really really talented."

Stolas turned to the hellhound. Loona looked nervous. "I don't know..." She said. "I'd be the oldest one there I bet. And probably the only hellhound and people wouldn't take kindly to it. Besides I have work and....and those kinds of schools are really expensive...." Her eyes flicked to Blitz briefly. "I don't know if we could even afford that. And...."

Stolas lifted a claw and cut her off.

"But do you want to go?" He asked. After a second, she nodded. And that was that. There was nothing either of the fathers wouldn't do to make their girls happy.

She was enrolled at Via's school, so she'd have the protection of being with a princess. No one would harass her there. Stolas, without a second thought but with much hemming and hawing from Blitz, put up the money for her tuition. That only left her job.

"I can't just leave them with no one manning the phones and schedules!" She insisted a few weeks later, just before the semester began when Via and Stolas had swung by to drop off lunch at the IMP offices.

"So I'll do it."

Everyone looked at Stolas, bug eyed. "He only had eyes for Blitz. "I once said you'd make a great boss. I said I'd be honored to work for you. So....if you'll have me, I can cover the hours Loona is away at school during the semester. I'm sure it will be fun!"

And that's how Stolas came to be the temporary secretary.

The first day of his employment he showed up early, ever eager, and got the whole place looking nice. He made everyone coffee and had it sitting on their table waiting, and when the imps finally arrived they found him sitting at the front desk waiting for them cross legged in a very tight blouse and very small shorts, a tiny little cropped sweater vest and glasses that served no purpose whatsoever. It seemed his only reference for office wear had been pornography. He winked at Blitz over his useless glasses. Moxxie's jaw nearly hit the floor.

"Welcome to IMP, how can I serve you today, Boss?"

After seeing Buffy he knew he should talk to Giles. Finding him easily as well. He knew they didn't get on the best, that Giles likely hated him for what Angelus did and he didn't blame him. "It seems I owe you another apology." He said simply. Looking at the other, arms crossed over his chest.

          random buffyverse sentence starters

               Cody wasn’t scared. Or, he was. He was absolutely terrified right down to the bones that held this wolf shape upright, but he had enough faith in the Mother, her moon and his pack that this issue could be dealt with before said family was down a vital number. That, and if anyone were to get through to who, or whatever, Angel had become, it was Faith and Jewel. It just had to be.

Once statement was made by the vampire, wolf couldn’t help but growl reactively, making eye contact as directly as possible. He knew he was weak, exhausted from all the mind games and physical pain he was enduring, but that wolfish will and pride kept him standing despite how desperately he wanted to collapse.
