RIP DOC IM SORRY

i do think that abolish would’ve done paperwork for him had doc actually wanted to live. but well. he made it pretty apparent that he Did Not.

however yeah it is funny but i think there is Genuinely something so interesting about abolish being so indifferent to the damage he causes specifically because he never lets himself get attached to anyone affected by his job (or anyone in general but. you know) and the specific thing about oakhurst that really fucks him up is the fact that he is forced to stay in one place and work closely with other people, indifference is no longer an option but he tries so so hard to convince himself that it still is, and i truly don’t think he realizes that’s the case until doc’s death fucking guts him.

YES YES YES !!! bodice ripper trustbites yes. with lovebitten it’s very very beneficial for the both of them, with louis getting to put away the Good Vampire persona and actually indulge in all of those ugly/monstrous parts of vampirism without hurting anyone and feeling guilty about it, and owen gets to feel desirable without feeling guilty or ashamed of wanting it. legs i think would be a little harder to get onboard (louis and legs’ respective fears of hurting people come from very different places, for louis it’s “you’re proving that you’re exactly the monster they expect you to be” and for legs it’s “you know you’re a monster and you let them believe you were good anyway” which are similar but result in wildly different baggage) but i think he it does soothe his anxieties knowing that owen enjoys it and it makes him feel wanted and valued, and if you could frame it as something legs is doing For Owen he would be slightly less nervous about it.

ooooor this could go full au territory which i Loveeee. owen you poor sweet darling, getting lost in the woods all alone, and the storm’s rolling in, oh my whatever could he do besides seek shelter with the reclusive noble outside of town. louis inviting him in and offering him a place to stay for the night, but once the sun comes up louis still insists owen stay for breakfast, and keeps finding more and more excuses to keep him from leaving (he’s lonely, sue him for wanting a little company around) and eventually well. things escalate.

can ofc range anywhere from “wildly nonconsensual but in line with the genre” to “louis is pretty much normal but they have some incredibly ill advised sex” depending on taste. personally i do think No Choice But To Be Cared For And Loved is very compelling the more resistant to spoiling owen is, perhaps they fuck and he clocks that louis is a vampire (catching glimpses of his fangs, not having a heartbeat, etc etc) and oh well he simply cannot be allowed to leave until louis is certain he won’t let the whole town in on his secret… louis putting him in pretty dresses and fancy clothes that would make it harder for him to run away, dressing him up like a princess. owen trying not to admit how incredibly into it he is.

not entirely sure how to get legs in here without creating another vet legs situation, but ah well. perhaps the jaded war doctor is an old friend of louis’ who stops by for tea every so often and louis can’t help but show off his new pet i mean guest. again, varying levels of consent but i did just imagine louis introducing the doctor to owen while he’s in a rope harness/possibly gagged and i blacked out for a second. hello.

condensing these into one ask bc YEEESSSS i know enough time has passed that the discord has yapped about this Extensively but im still thinking about this… lovebitten gender fuckery my beloved

still thinking about that scenario where level 3 owen goes looking for louis’ clothes, except almost all of them were lost in the fire, but the pre-transition dresses he keeps in the cellar weren’t, and what is he gonna do, NOT wear them ?? please.

:o :O
