“None of us really changes over time. We only become more fully what we are." ~ 21+ #SmutlessRP ~ MV/Selectively MS Based on #TheVampireChronicles books/TV series but so AU, he might as well be an OC. Good stories. No ick. Penned by #Scripturient

This is so incredibly insulting.

Present company. Is there another one currently living he should know about? {Not his other fledgling. Doesn’t count. Technically not alive.}

Is on board if they are setting Marius on fire.

*closes the curtains*

In all the darkness, she is light. And she makes him smile. Pandora need not worry about any more words. He silences them with a kiss.

Pandora@she-who-remains.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Pandora would blush if she still could. Devilish isn't something she usually thinks of when she thinks of her Tom, but it suits him. "Tom" is all she can say, in a breathless voice. Absolutely spellbound.

He wraps an arm around her and pulls her in closer. Tom can be devilishly suave when he needs to be.

Pandora@she-who-remains.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Why Lieutenant... Pandora mimes fanning herself.

They could be naughty.

Pandora@she-who-remains.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Immortality! Not immorality!

Emerges from the dead. Three things: 1. Must attend to his beloved. 2. Why is his nephew setting things on fire? And also, is his beloved teaching his nephew? 3. Why Marius?

He shall be along post haste then.

Pandora@she-who-remains.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Always with her.

Only if it is a forever with her.

Pandora@she-who-remains.bsky.social · 2mo ago

@last-light-spoken.bsky.social youtube.com/watch?v=MTmD...

Marius is forcing his company on him.

Then . . . he will do this. For her a much as himself.

Pandora@she-who-remains.bsky.social · 4mo ago

She has never stopped loving and wanting him. He has ever carried her heart with him.

It would be award being stalked by his vampire brother. Some vampires might enjoy that sort of thing. Not referring to anyone in particular. Just . . . someone.

The 𝓑𝓸𝔂@brightreporter.bsky.social · 4mo ago

... Oh. Yeah. That's not the stalker you want. Try Armand out. Wait, don't! That's /Daniel's/ stalker.

Then maybe he would start feeling like he actually has a life again. With her, if she still wants him.

Pandora@she-who-remains.bsky.social · 4mo ago

No, he can't. He is barely here or there. There are ways to exisit without feeling like a monster. She can show him how.

His maker. Armand's maker. Pandora's. The man gets around.

The 𝓑𝓸𝔂@brightreporter.bsky.social · 4mo ago

That's fair. . . . No clue who that is, but it's fair.

It is a little less terrifying that way. And he can't keep going on as he is.

Pandora@she-who-remains.bsky.social · 4mo ago

She will be by his side, always.

Alright. Let him be specific. He would very much like NOT to be stalked by Marius de Romanus.

The 𝓑𝓸𝔂@brightreporter.bsky.social · 4mo ago

Disclaimer: This sentiment is not shared by every Molloy. Some Molloys WANT to be stalked by vampires.

Vampires, please stop stalking Molloys. Much appreciated.

He would be willing to try for her.

Pandora@she-who-remains.bsky.social · 4mo ago

She was not with him then. She is now. She will be his anchor.

He doesn't trust himself because he remembers those first few nights when he was not in control.

Pandora@she-who-remains.bsky.social · 4mo ago

He never could be. He is too noble and good. It simply is not possible.

No. But who is to say he wouldn't be if he gave in?

Pandora@she-who-remains.bsky.social · 4mo ago

/She/ is not like all of that.

And their "brother" is quite persuasive.

Pandora@she-who-remains.bsky.social · 4mo ago

He's quite hard headed.

@she-who-remains.bsky.social Is attempting to talk some sense into his nephew . . .

And Tom is a soldier. Or was. So he understands running recklessly into a fight that seems noble. It's not because one wants to be a hero -- it is just something that needs to be done. Still. "I think this merits a discussion. Actual planning instead of whatever that was." What he wants is ~

𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐞𝐥 𝐌𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐲@lobbingbombs.bsky.social · 4mo ago

Did he actually think Armand could shield him? Or is that just what he's been telling Armand so he doesn't lose his shit? It's hard to tell most days. "It's either die trying to do something or die 'cause nobody stopped him." There's the bright young reporter, showing himself.

“And yet you somehow think /Armand/ can shield you from the consequences of your choices.” All of this was a choice. Associating with Armand is a choice.

𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐞𝐥 𝐌𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐲@lobbingbombs.bsky.social · 4mo ago

"I don't feel invincible." He feels far, far from it. Hence the puffing of his chest. The bravado. "Staying out of it stopped being an option when Lestat hired me. Fuck, when /Louis/ hired me. I'm in it. I've /been/ in it."

“Staying out of it. You are going to get yourself killed. You might feel invincible at the moment but . . .” But none of them are.

𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐞𝐥 𝐌𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐲@lobbingbombs.bsky.social · 4mo ago

Shoves his hands in his pockets and shrugs. "Do you have a /better/ idea?"
