Evil Evil Love: the lonevamps hanahaki au!! Made this around the 3rd episode i think? To summarise it: Avid falls in love with Owen, it is not mutual, he develops hanahaki disease The name is inspired by the song Propose by 9Lana, which is the title track in the playlist i made for the au (its public on spotify if anyone's curious- called 'evil evil love') In the au, Avid isn't sick because the demon-curse-thing, his wound is from Elle instead of from his childhood injury, and while he is still actively being possessed, it isnt physically affecting him until after he dies as a vamp The flowers are blackthorn flowers, because i hc Oakhurst being somewhere in Europe, where blackthorns can be found, and i'm sure blackthorns flower sometime that makes sense for Vampires' timeline- and because I think it's cute, Owen probably 'discarded' some of the blackthorn flowers by giving them to Avid at the start of the series (this isn't minecraft-lore at all) In this au, Avid's plan for becoming a vampire is to stop the flowers actively growing in his lungs- his logic being that you can't suffocate something that doesn't breathe, can't kill something that isn't alive When he is turned, the flowers stop, contributing to his manically happy demeanour as a vampire In this au (because i don't really ship Avott), Avid is Just Like That around Scott, and still has feelings for Owen, but Scott gets kind of attached (i like unrequited ships if you can't tell), because he's learning to feel again- thanks to Shelby and Avid. All Avid's love for Owen only makes it more tragic when Owen and Pyro kill him, and as they claw him to death, flowers spill out of his wounds Owen doesn't know why Avid had thorny branches and bloody flowers within him, and he never will
