#vampire!vash

You offer to give him a meal of your blood and he vanishes for days. Can’t exactly run away though; he’s too hungry. Too lovestruck. Too scared he’d suck you dry. Comes crawling back when the blood of a lizard tastes like ash in his mouth. You still have to convince him, though. Prick your finger and hold it up for him to sniff. His pupils blow wide, and he doesn’t even realize he’s feasting on you until he feels warm and alive and why, why did you offer?? Why did he give in?? Stops himself just barely. Leaves you sleeping and groggy and blames blames blames himself for hurting you, promises to himself to never do it again. Makes you a hearty breakfast and water and cares for you for days after.

He can’t deny the change in him, though. He feels stronger. Is stronger. He feels like the suns, warm and bright and like he could take on every problem humanity has. He hears only your heartbeat now. It is strong, even after his feeding. Promises more blood, more normalness that he craves like an addict now. The goosebumps on his arms hasn’t gone away.

- will vamp!Vash be picky about the spot he feeds on? (Definitely not a neck (i think it's dumb when people see a vampire bite on the neck as romantic cuz this actually can be a lethal thing). He won't be feeding on multiple spots because he can't stand ruining and scarring reader's skin but biting on the same spot will cause bruising and constant aching and he can't have that too.)

- will vamp!Vash cry or feel absolutely miserable during or after the feeding? (maybe the first couple of times cuz the last thing he wants is to have his fangs being sank into the skin of the person he cherishes and loves the most)

- aftercare after the feeding?? (Absolutely, please. This man will be making himself so useful to make sure he's giving more than he takes. But ofc he needs some love too. Hold him and tell him that what he did was something he needed and that nothing changed between them.)

I'm feeling a bit yappy thanks to you lol

Ari don’t tempt me. Don’t do it. I WILL yap your ear off.

1. I think he’d go for places with only traces of blood first, rather than something that has an artery (like the neck, as you mentioned). Maybe nick your ear, bite at your wrist, your ankle when you’re lying down. Places that will only draw hints of your life into him, and won’t hurt too terribly or take long to heal. Just enough to sate. It takes many moons and many promises from you that it’s okay for him to feed. You’re willing. You can and will heal. He moves on to biting your shoulder, your calf, but only when absolutely necessary. Only after viscous fights when you’ve convinced him he needs to feed, and only then when you say you need him to protect you. Get his strength back etc etc

2. Oh he hates himself. Absolutely loathes the monster he is. And to finally give into those urges to bite, feed, love? He’s the lowest of the low. To hurt his love in any way is abominable. It makes him no better than Nai, hearing his brother’s voice call you a “blood sack” in his head while his tongue lathers up your red palm. It takes months of starving again before his resolve waivers and he asks for a bit of blood. Months more after that. Goes into hiding for a few days out of shame before crawling back to you and the one heartbeat he can hear for iles. Only cries to himself while he’s away, because he feels so guilty but also feels so much better after.
