KISS OF THE VAMPIRE

Vampires tend to have a lot of sex appeal. It may be because Evil Is sexy for some, but not all vampires are evil, so maybe it's because they're bad boys or sultry femme fatales. Maybe people just figure hundreds of years of practice at love making makes vampires really, really good at it. On the other hand, the bloodsucking may be a great fetish source, something about a quick sting of pain followed by pleasure.

When a vampire is hungry and isn't quite so decent or hard up as to lower himself to only buying blood at the butcher's or trapping and draining small animals instead, their dietary supplement of preference is human blood. However, vampires can make the experience of being a drink box not just bearable, but pleasurable for the donor.

Roles
1. Vampire
2. Victim

Prompts
1. Willing - You're either a friend of vampire offering up a quick bite...or you know what you like and that's being a giving person.
2. Unwilling - They want your blood, but you're not up to parting with it. Can you withstand the pleasure, however?
3. Fluffy - How can you make the hungry undead warm and sweet? They could just be jaded from all the cruelty they've seen or dealt out and want something different.
4. Romantic - Is it worse to be the prey of a vampire - or their lover? At least with the latter, they'll try to treat you gently.
5. Rough - The opposite of the above; this vampire couldn't care less about you and treats you like a slab of meat.
6. Dangerous - This is no kitten you're playing with. Remember, your life hangs in the balance if they sink their fangs too far...
7. Purely Sexual - Both of you are into a little bit of bloodplay. One of you just gets dinner on the side.

[ likely the victim, could be willing or unwilling! ]

[Either/or, though I'm intrigued by the idea of human bots being an 'ethical' or 'humane' replacement for actual human victims, maybe some kind of demi-cyberpunk future?
Could also easily be that he was an entirely willing thrall to Eli and an unwilling one to Josh, and now he's just kind of drifting without that (or helping others in his situation the way Iris helped him get away from Josh)]

[She's been known to play juice-box from time to time, since some of her best friends and/or contacts are vampires.]

[Hydra vampirizing him as another means of control is one of my favorite tropes.
He's only fully current through F&tWS, but could theoretically be Thunderbolts-compliant for theoretical teammates.]

[Could be a side-effect of being a Horseman, or he could make an easy victim thanks to already having his head messed with by a powerful psychic]

[I ship all the things, Smiley One, Cat and Crow, and look, vampire is just as likely as ghost, wouldn't even have to change the name of the agency or anything!]

[Probably the victim, either to Kas!Eddie, or otherwise-vampire Eddie, to society-type vampire Steve, whatever y'all. Hell, let her come back as Kas and make herself a little army of thralls out of the Hawkins boys. I'm here for basically anything except the kids.
Some cross-canon is fine, if you're not sure just ask!
Also available as a dude via

ccunningham if preferred.]

[He's not a 'victim' as much as he's a willing snack. He works at a supernatural creature friendly bar, and he's not actively on the menu, but people know who to ask for.]

[There are so many options! Came back as Kas, was already a vampire and landed in Hawkins because Weird Shit Was Happening, didn't come back as Kas but still got vampirized by the bat-bites, and the list goes on.
But he makes a good victim, too, so other variations on how he lived are available!]

[Vampire who somehow became ~~special~~ best friends and business partners with a ghost?
But also, like, maybe some vampires can actually feed on ghosts. I'm mostly down with him being a vampire because the Lost Boys references would be hilarious. Really though, whatever works!]

[If he's the vampire, he got into the line of work he's in for easy access to meals he's not likely to see again.
If he's the victim, he basically works for Vampire Meals On Wheels.]

[He's a fuckin' rockstar. Which honestly really could go either way, but I'm a fan of him Lost-Boysing himself a band of musicians he wants to keep around forever. He's not Lestat, though, he doesn't lean into the vampire aspect, he's actually pretty secretive about that. His last big band did surf rock in the 40s/50s]
