You sigh, shrugging your shoulders in an apathetic response. “It’s silly.”

“Tell me.”

You swallow hard, nervous to admit it. “I’m just missing my family and friends, that’s all.”

It’s been months since you abandoned your simple life to join whatever mess Eso and his brothers roped you in to. While you don’t regret your decision, there are times, like this, where you miss it. The brothers never cared for sentimentality, Eso included. That’s why it surprises you even more when he wraps his arms around you, pulling you in closer for a hug. He rests his chin on the top of your head, massaging your back. “I’m sorry.”

An apology? What’s going on here? You relax into his hold, waiting for him to elaborate. Eventually, he continues. “I know it was not easy to leave your ordinary life to join us. And I know I am not the best partner. But rest assured, I am learning every day to be better. For you.”

His confession has you stunned. All this time, he’s been devoted solely to his brothers. This is the first time that he’s dedicated anything to you. It’s enough to bring you to tears. As you sniffle onto his bare chest, he cups your cheeks in his hands, staring curiously at your swollen eyes. “Why do you cry, my love?”

My love. The sweet pet name has you bawling more. He brushes his thumbs across your face, wiping the tears away. “Are you sad?”

You smile. “No, Eso. Not anymore.”

He grins, his dark eyes tender as he gazes at you. “Good.” Bringing his face to yours, he kisses you gently. He doesn’t let you go, tongue flitting across your lips, until Choso clears his throat in the background. 

Being newly turned vampires, it was common for them to be thirsty, needing something to satisfy them quickly, but being able to have restraint when it comes to stop feeding so as to not kill the donor, that was another story. 

Of course, there were incidents where this has happened in Ravenwatch in the past, but luckily nothing has happened like that ever since you’ve been here. Of course, not everything can be cured with your potions, lately there’s been an outbreak of other houses getting infected where they transform everyone and anyone to lifeless corpses. 

There was no known cure as of yet and whatever magic was surrounding it was beyond many healers magic including yours. You’ve seen the effects of this horrendous outbreak with other houses and it was terrifying, a phenomenon that was sweeping across the land. You were dedicated and vowed to protect your House family and Fennorian, one of the high members of House Ravenwatch who was not only your good friend, but your lover as well.

For the past few weeks you’ve been reading book upon book and trying various types of potions to possibly make a cure. You shut yourself into your study and you didn’t eat or drink unless Finnorian brought you something.

A sharp knock on the door interrupted your thoughts as you were looking at the various types of grass weeds around the area that would help your current potion. “Come in.” Going back to your book, your eyes scanned the text and your hand scribbled notes on your parchment. The soft clink of a plate being put down made you look up to see who entered your study. 

“Here love, I know you haven’t eaten for a while, so I made your favorite.” There stood Fennorian adorning a soft smile on his face before he took a seat next to you at your small corner table. Being a bit more reserved, he was usually quiet, but you never minded. You both always had deep, meaningful conversations and spent any free time you both had with one another. He was of course one of the Vampires in the house and you two started getting along with coming up with potions and translating texts of ancient times. After a night of passion, you both agreed to try a relationship with one another and the rest was history. 

“Thank you Fenn, it smells delicious.” Kissing the top of your hand, he continued to hold said hand. “(Y/N), after you eat can you please rest,” With your free hand you started to eat the food he gave you, but stopped when he said that. “I know you’re looking for a cure, but my love, you’ve shut yourself away from the rest of the house, from me and I can see it’s taking a toll on you and your health.” 

You continued to eat as you mulled the thought around in your mind for a few moments. He did have a valid point, you could feel the effects of locking yourself in your study, you felt heavy, exhausted, the bags under your eyes were evidence enough. Looking at Fenn, you could see the worry in his eyes. Nodding, you finished the plate before standing up and perching yourself in Fenn’s lap. 

The shy Vampire placed his hands on your soft sides, his finger dancing along the expanse of them. “I’ll only rest if you join me.” He cleared his throat as you could see him getting embarrassed. Of course he was intimate with you, but when you make the first move he still gets flustered, you always thought it was adorable. 

“J-join you…as in actually resting or uhm, like last time?” Fennorian was avoiding eye contact with you as he stumbled through his sentence. Smiling, you kissed his forehead. “Not like last time, I promise, we’ll actually rest my  love, I am a bit tired.” Slumping against him, you felt him relax a bit.

Eso

At first he probably wouldn't feel so comfortable with you being so close to him, due to his back, but eventually, if he likes you, he won't resist being near you and touching you. He'd hesitantly start being closer and extending a hand on your shoulder, giving you hugs, pulling you closer to his chest and holding you tight in his strong arms.

As a person he may seem all confident and show off, but inside of him he has some self image issues and when he starts liking someone they can make him very vulnerable and insecure. You tell him how lucky you are to have him, he'd tear up, squeeze you and reply with how lucky is he to having found someone that doesn't mind his looks. You insist that he actually looks great and the ones he calls flaws are actually cool features of him. That would make him want to bury his head in your neck and feel protected, and stay like that for hours.

But he would also feel the need to protect you whenever you'd feel sad, sensitive, troubled. He'd coo in your ear, cradle you while keeping you warm in his embrace, hush you in a consoling way and give you kisses all over your face. His words would be the most encouraging, with a hint of amusing, flirtatious and entertaining.

Sometimes, he'd grab you in your sleep and pull you closer, murmuring in your ear about how much he loves you and how cute you are, and how he can't resist making you a pillow to sleep better. He'd probably snore a bit if he was too tired, probably even talk in his sleep about you or his brothers in dreams he has.

Nanami

A serious and logical man like him externally looks like a lone wolf and extremely strict, but in reality, all he wants is to chase a fulfilling and comforting life, and he tries his best in it. He would love to have a person to be by his side, always knowing that he has someone to has his back, and waiting for him at the end of the day, in a comfortable and warm house that you two could snuggle on a sofa with a lot of pillows, in winter near a fireplace with blankets, having a hot chocolate or tea together, asking each other how work went.

Nanami finds work really straining, and always wishes he could have vacation, but when he thinks of you, all he cares is to have some hours of vacation in your arms, helping him relax and wind down. He immediately stops being tense when you kiss his forehead and lips. He sighs, keeping that straight face for a while, opens the TV and then, turns back to you, gives you a calm and genuine smile, wraps an arm around your shoulder and crosses his legs, enjoying the rest of his evening.

Comforting you, Nanami would be very encouraging and supportive. He usually stays with a serious expression, but looking in your eyes and holding your shoulders, he smiles determined at you and reassures you that you can achieve anything you want, as long as you work for it.

At night times, he'd probably be extremely sleepy, because tired from work, and all he wants is to cuddle close to you and get tangled in the covers. He'd also ask for sleepy kisses before he'd fall asleep, expressing all of his affection for you in them.

Naoya

Not the most easy person to associate with, even not a good choice at first glance. But as you get to know him better, you'd discover that behind all the extreme behaviours and beliefs he has, he's just scared and forced to all of them by his very influential family. If he opens up to you, secretly probably, he'd like to hold your hand, even though he'd be hesitant at first. As he gets more familiar to you, he trusts you more and feels the need to have a shoulder to lean on when he's feeling down.

He still has trouble understanding that certain narratives of his family are wrong and violent because he has grown up with them, but as you're holding him and explain him how harmful they are, he starts to understand slowly. Your physical contact helps him feel safer and for once protected by his hateful folks.

He's yet not the best comforting others, but if he ever saw you feeling down, the person he has grown a liking to, he would feel very bothered and try to do something. At first, he'd try his nicest words, still not that good at that. But he wouldn't resist giving you a tight hug at the end. He'd sink his fingers in your hair and whisper that he would protect you, and even make people pay if needed.

When you sleep on the same bed, Naoya can seem serious at first, but as he gets sleepier, he starts demanding some attention, so he clings to you and gives you neck kisses, until you turn around and and return his cuddles.

Choso

He is literally so sweet, sensitive and protective. He seems very introverted at first, and probably a bit too formal, but when he gets to know you better and start developing a crush on you, his clinginess would start showing. He'd pull your hand for a last warm hug after your dates would end, and give a kiss on your cheek, or even your lips if he was bold enough with you do that, given that you also allow him to.

He's constantly so worried about his brothers, and needs reassurance that they are alright. When he looks so stressed, he really needs a warm, comforting hug and a bit of petting on his hair and cradling. He nods to your calm words and latches on you just a bit more.

As much as he needs consoling, he also feels the need to always be by your side when you need some as well. His overprotective instincts take over and needs to be sure you'll get better after. He would do everything for that, cuddle you, wrap a blanket around you, bring you a drink and sit by your side, talking to you constantly on how everything will be fine.

At night, he curls in the bed, very close to you, and holds your hand for the whole night, he insists even if you want to shift a bit. He sometimes has nightmares, and that makes him want to hold you close until he feels better, and he'd want to do the same if you also have bad dreams.

Eso

His texts are sure full of intentional cutesy misspellings, emojis and emoticons, plus a lot of punctuation marks. He usually sends sassy and flirty GIFs, and uses the words "fabulous", "lovely" and "gorgeous" a lot. He's very extroverted, and since the first moment, his presence is loud and eccentric, even via texts.

When you need his support, he sends a ton of positivity and always rushes to find the best solutions for you. He's always glad to help you, and usually tells you that he wishes he could be near you to give you his tighter hug, to help you feel better.

When he wants to vent to you, he usually starts with "can I talk about something that bothers me?". If you also support him and help him boost his mood, he makes sure to thank you and let you know that he was very pleased with your talk.

His memes are either too old fashioned or too cutesy, or even both.

He's very flirty and won't hesitate to make you blush with his words. He'd compliment you a lot and remind you that he loves you. He's also a gentleman and it shows everytime you talk. He always complains when you two are separated, and tells you how he wishes he could squeeze you in his arms and stay like that for hours.

His most used emojis: 💗♥️😘😗😼😏🥺💓💞💖🐝

Toji Fushiguro

He is not too talkative. Mostly answers with one or two words when you ask him something general. But if you would want to talk about something more emotional in nature or something deeper, he would actually enjoy the talk and respond with long texts on his view on the topic, and he'd be very kind to you, careful not to offend you. His most used word is "ok".

If you ever feel down, he'll want to be positive, but still would be a bit awkward, since he's not the best to comfort others in his opinion, but he still manages to make you feel better with his advice and thoughts, even without realising it.

When something bothers him, he doesn't really bring it up himself, you have to dig for it while you keep texting him. It will be a bit difficult for him to admit it, and will be replying in a very neutral tone and very short texts. But eventually, he will admit and open his heart to you if he trusts you. He will awkwardly thank you when he finishes his venting.

He doesn't really know about memes, but he subconsciously makes some amateurish ones, usually of dark humour.

His flirting skills are exceptional, he's very smooth when he plays with the words, with smugness.

He isn't really into emojis, but he could use one or two hearts when the situation requires.

Sukuna

When you meet him at first he's not so open, and talks sarcastically at you, but not with bad intentions, if he takes a liking to you, which is a very rare thing. As you two get closer, his texts are becoming a bit more detailed, and slightly poetic as well. That's a sign that he wants you in his life.

If he notices that you are down when you two text, he will feel confused on what he could say to make you feel better, since he spent so many years alone in his slumber, with the memory of hunger to destroy everything. But since he actually starts having feelings for you, he tries his best, and aims to succeed, because he can never be satisfied with something less than success.

There are moments even he feels negative emotions, probably stronger than annoyance. He finds it difficult to admit, but he does need your encouragement too sometimes. If you show him your interest, he'll be very grateful, even if in his texts, it is not so visible, because he's too embarrassed and confused to the new feelings.

He is literally just awakened again in the 21st century, 1000 years after his era, and he is abruptly new to technology and the culture of today, so he had no idea of what memes are, before you showed him. He found them so hilarious, he ended up spamming you with a ton of memes from every site he could find. His favourite type is nonsensical videos with bad flute covers.

The way he flirts is a bit possessive at first, but he mellows down as you show your character to him too. You become part in his life and that has a positive impact on his behaviour.

Since he learned using emojis, he becomes a merciless spamming machine, and his favourites are: 😂😈😛💲🤑💘😏💎
