Wait, Anon, your mind.... I love soft, syrup-sweet sentimental scenarios like these!

The Devil's quarters, prior to his darling, were grand and rich with luxury. The walls, coated in velvet red and laced with gold filigree in its paper, held giant paintings of his monstrous visage. His bed, ginormous and dressed with soft covers and fluffy pillows, made him look absolutely small in comparison.

Before you, the demon had spent many a lonesome night in his chambers. 

Then along came you. To the Devil, your mere existence felt like a breath of fresh air to the fire and brimstone of his. 

Little by little, trinkets and baubles began to accrue in your new home. Which include, but are not limited to: a small potted cactus that sat on his work desk, the sole survivor of your attempts at gardening in Hell; a silk robe custom-tailored to your shape, currently crumpled at your side of the bed; numerous photographs of special dates. 

Birthdays, holidays-- all little things he hardly cared for at one point. Truly, you’ve brought a fragment of life to his dull existence.

Over the decades of his life as a (rogue) Hunter of Hunters, often indulging in blood, Antonín realises that he is immune to the Scourge. 

He’ll never turn into a beast, no matter how much blood he consumes. He isn't affected by any manner of poisons nor impurity either, being an utterly venomous creature himself. 

It’s a recessive characteristic of his lineage, which most people Cain.hurst people do not share. The so-called Vilebloods are quite resistant to beasthood, yet not necessarily immune to it. 

Someone turned by his blood will be cleansed from all early symptoms of the Scourge, and granted a strong resistance to it. Provided, of course, they survive the devastating toxic shock of consuming such a terrible poison. (The survivors are few.) This won’t work with beasts, that is, people who’ve already succumbed to beasthood. 

On that note: only the royal bloodline of Cain.hurst can turn regular people into inhuman beings akin (albeit not equal) to themselves. Then, only the Queen may safely give them the gift of blood without risk of harm or death. 

but trinity & yolanda’s relationship isn’t secret

so they can seek each other out at work during hard days

can pause for a moment of support

meanwhile baran is over analyzing if she’s touched either of them too much, if she’s been too familiar with them, if she’s been fair to everyone as an attending

here is one little line of garsanshimi smut from a scene i’m working on

bc honestly i need the notes to motivate me to keep going
