I shouldn't be planning the short story between books 2 and 3, but it's going to be a collection of smut as Noah and Anatoly get comfortable with each other. I'll also have ABO because I'm a menace. #mmromance #queersky #queerwriter #writesky #indieauthor #scifiromance #ABO

🖤 For him, one day or a thousand years is no different, he will return with the same passions as the moment they parted, which can make acquaintances uncomfortable, especially if they’ve since found a partner
🔞Velvet Puddle is Free (@velvetpuddle.bsky.social) reply parent
🖤 He teaches his fledglings to ethically feed from people, opening his heart to his victims and leaving them in a blissful fog. There’s no trouble he can’t get himself out of, but due to his free love morality, others struggle to remain loyal to him 🖤
🔞Velvet Puddle is Free (@velvetpuddle.bsky.social) reply parent
🖤 own fledglings tend to leave him because he is so unconditional in his love, and most vampires lose their humanity when the change takes them. Lovers of his own caliber, he eventually loses to death or they take him for granted and use him, so he leaves 🖤

On Remus: this would be his modern day look. He speaks many languages (hence how he woos everyone), but mainly French and English, tries to get in everyone’s pants, owns a warehouse on the banks of the Seine but is a free spirit and travels, looking for someone to share eternity with but even his 🖤

I’ve got so many of my own OCs, I haven’t considered pairing them with other peoples’ OCs! In a way, I think my writing style forbids it, as they’d have to mesh into the existing world for it to work, and it would take major tweaking to do so.

My favorite OC (can I really call him an OC?) is Remus, a vampire that’s lived to see the establishment and fall of Rome, mistaken to be dead, lover not a fighter and once laid with Nostradamus (and pretty much every other historical figure). I love him cause he’s cracked but in a good way, ♾️ 24

My oldest OC is probably a young woman named Elizabeth who spends her life in hiding due to her family being vampires, unbeknownst to her. Very original, I know. I wrote her when I was 14 on an old clunker computer
