sire and sired
There's nothing like the bond between a maker and their offspring. It goes beyond parent, friend, lover to a realm deeper than most humans could understand. It can encompass so many things - loyalty, love, respect, protectiveness and it certainly isn't unheard of to include sex in with it all.

As a sire, you will most likely feel the urge to protect and teach what you've created. They will be your family, your blood. Vampire instinct dictates you stay with your offspring until you feel they are able to make it on their own.

Some never part.

As an offspring, you may feel slighted if they turned you against your choice or you may feel profound respect. You may love them anyway, even if the choice to be changed wasn't yours. In some tales, a created vampire will always love their maker and look at them with nothing but utter respect. They will be under their maker's control, perhaps never regaining their freedom.

Not all sires and sired have the perfect relationship, however. For reasons so varied, sires might not feel any bond towards their offspring, may grow to resent the burden or whatever forced them into creating them. Sired vampires may resent their makers for not giving them a choice, for taking them away from their family.

Now the question is, what will your relationship be like?

Warning: possible triggers, sex and violence are contained in this meme. it could also contain references to dubcon/noncon in certain prompts.

instructions:
1. Comment with your character, series, preferences and whether they will be sire or sired. You may also roll on a thread by thead basis.
2. Roll a number between 1-6 with RNG for a type and then 1-6 again to decide which prompt to follow. You may also create your own scenario.
3. Reply to others and play to your heart's content.
4. Respect others, don't cause wank.

prompts:

freshly made
1. the beginning | you're about to make an offer they can't (or won't) refuse. you want a companion, they were sick, they were dying and you couldn't stand to see it happen. they're a friend, a lover, someone you just think would make a good companion. maybe you just want to be a sire and experience that joy.
2. the awakening | the first night awakening with new eyes. how does it feel? is it joyous, confusing, terrifying or infuriating? how do you look at your maker? be prepared to spend time adjusting to your newfound senses.
3. first feed | it's time that the sired takes their first taste of actual blood. is it done willingly? is it a desperate hunger that they just can't ignore? or did you have blood waiting for them or special rules they need to follow before they feed? now would be the time to tell them.
4. mentor | while maybe not their actual sire, you are the closest they've got. just because you don't have a blood bond doesn't mean you don't care about them as much as your own and you need them to understand that.
5. settling in | things are radically different than they were before for both the sire and the sired. it's time to seek a little comfort in each other, soothe any discomfort and get a feel for your new bond.
6. first rest | it's your first day's rest and you want to spend it wth your sire. do they accept you with open arms, wait with you? do they insist you go it alone? and whatever their answer, it's also important how the sired accepts it and what they think of it.

old hands
1. prey | you've found your prey, either willing or not, for the night and the hunger is kicking in. do you share it? is it every vampire for him(or her)self?
2. hiding | you've both reached a point in your life where it's important to blend in with humans, either out of necessity or want. how are both of you handling it? is it a joint desire or is one simply being made to follow along?
3. moving | something has happened and you need to move on, fast. how do you feel about leaving your home and everything behind? were you really ready for it?
4. dedication | show your dediction to each other in any way possible. you need to know that you are family, you need to reaffirm that bond between you.
5. change | things are changing between you, for better or worse. it's subtle or outright apparent to one or both of you. the question is how you handle it and if it can be worked out.
6. release | every parent, friend or lover knows when it is time to let go. do they want it or is it you? is it the sign of the sired growing up to a mature, capable vampire or have you just grown tired of dealing with them? do they leave as soon as they get a taste of freedom or choose to stay?

angst
1. hunted down | there are hunters after one or both of you. it is up to you to decide whether you stand your ground or you run. do you want to give in to their desire to kill you? do you want to do anything to keep your maker or your child safe?
2. tortured | there are those who enjoy to torture that which they don't understand, either out of malice or personal gain. have you found your companion yet and will they ever be the same again?
3. injured | one or both of you have been injured in a way that will not heal without blood and time to mend. how do you possibly deal with the vulnerability?
4. break | there is something broken in your bond, anger building between you and discontent whether you are aware of it or not. is there anything like your sire being ashamed of creating you? or your own offspring hating you?
5. resentment | one or neither of you wanted this and the resentment just grows more each day. can it be worked out or is there anything anyone can do to patch this up? is there any guilt for what you've inflicted on the other that you need to express?
6. the ending | it's time to meet the long sleep, to meet the sun and put an end to a very long, very difficult life. do you meet it together? do you send one of them away?

crime and punishment
1. disobeyed | your offspring disobewed and they must be punished for it. in what way will you choose and does it pain you to do so? how does it feel for your offspring to know they let you down?
2. higher power | it goes beyond a dispute between sire and sired this time and higher authorities are demanding punishment. how severe will it be? will you two ever see each other again?
3. murderer | one or both of you killed another vampire or a human deemed offlimits. how will you handle this? and what punishment awaits you?
4. animal | insanity can settle in over time, causing one to act in a way that they would never have thought possible. how do you handle this?
5. betrayal | you have betrayed your maker or your child in the worst way possible. do you confess or do they already know? how do you move past this?
6. secrets | there are dark secrets between the both of you. how do you deal with it and is it something that will sting deeply?

soft
1. gift | you have brought a special gift, for a special occasion or just because. you want to please the other in every way you can, maybe just to spoil them a little bit.
2. confession | you love each other, but you need to tell them just how deeply and in what ways.
3. staying | even though you have been told you can go, released, you are choosing to stay and you need them to understand just why.
4. forgiveness | you have fought and hurt each other, but it is time to show some forgiveness. what is done is in the past and it's time to move on.
5. comfort | it has been a long, trying time and it is time to seek comfort in the only one that you can, in whatever ways you will be able.
6. sharing | sharing each other's blood is an intimate experience, personal. you need that closeness right now, that even deeper connection.

smut
1. first time | it's the first time for you together ever or since turning. maybe one of you was a virgin in life and now you have to deal with that situation in death. is it special? terrifying? something that has been building for far too long?
2. mine | possessive, jealous. you need them to know who they belong to and just how much you need them.
3. owed | your sired owes you this, whether they want it or not. with you or with whomever you say. maybe your sired is forcing you into this, twisting that bond to make you bend to their will.
4. kinky | the best part of being undead? you don't have to worry about things like breathing or injuries. you can be as kinky or as rough as you want to be. experiment a little!
5. shared | you are being shared with another vampire or are being asked to share what's yours. how do you react? is it something that you both want anyway?
6. worship | as a maker or child, it is your duty to show how much you worship the other entirely, how much you want them.

[ Dick considered that, crystalline thoughts following one after the other, as delicate pleasure webbed around Wally's touch on his cheek. ]

You won't let me. You won't let me kill you. Please.

[ He remained still for the kiss, the familiarity of the gesture helping him settle down in the influx of sensations more, and then nodded. ]

Yeah, I'd better.

[ Slowly, carefully, testing his strength AND control, he sat up, then his lips parted as he almost tasted the air, the small change in position enough to change the information he was getting. Then he looked aver at Wally. ]

In case I forget, in case it gets really bad and I lose sight of it for a while...

[ Dick turned a tentative, but still bright smile at the older vampire. ]

Thanks for saving my life.

[ The plea in Dick's voice just added one more layer of heartbreak to the elder vampire's soul. He knew then that he wouldn't let Dick do anything he would regret forever, and that he would be there to comfort him from all of the unavoidable, little regrets. He knew Dick would do many things that the part of him that would always be human would loathe.

He leaned back as Dick sat up and gave him as bright a smile as he could muster in turn. ]

You're already doing better than any other fledgling I've known... [ And with some-thousand years under his belt already, he'd seen quite a few.

Slowly, Wally continued to pull away from Dick, till he was to his feet and backing away from the black-haired creature of his blood. ]

You can do this.

[ Dick watched him move. He could see so much more in Wally's motions, now, the suppressed speed, the strength. How much had it cost him, all this time, to handle Dick as gently as he had? All that control. ]

[ All this love. ]

[ His sire's worry was almost palpable, to Dick, and he took a moment to think of what he could do to alleviate it. But there was no way, he suspected. Wally was always going to worry, and there was probably good enough reason for it (he'd just been lying on the ground, bleeding, after all). But he could distract him. Or, at least, he could try. ]

[ The newborn vampire half-closed his eyes. Which was all the warning there was. ]

[ Instead of simply attempting to rise to his feet? Dick did one of his undignified motions, the ones that probably landed him on the dirt here, too. ]

[ He flipped back to a hand-stand, and then to a graceful landing upright. It had never been so easy - in fact, he overbalanced (too much strength!) and then caught himself. Then spread his arms, showing himself off. ]

[ For just a second, Wally wasn't sure if Dick was going to fall flat or if he was actually going to land it. He'd seen fledglings do amazing things in the first moments of their new lives, but Dick was already amazing, used to doing amazing things. Overshooting was a possibility he had considered, and he wasn't exactly proven wrong.

A half-smile tugged at his lips, holding back the bark of a laugh that wanted to bound past their guard. But there was Dick, showing himself off, stained with blood in the dark. ]

I think I've woken up a wild little godling, haven't I? [ In one instant, the redhead was standing right in front of Dick, his arms like adamant in their hold about the brunet's waist. He wasn't planning on holding back too much anymore. Part of it was joy at the new freedom; part of it was the instinct every maker had for their fledgling - "Know there are those better than you." Some things were hard to fight, strong as they were in the blood, but the look in Wally's green eyes tempered that hard edge.

He loved Dick. He loved his mate. ]

That remains to be seen.

[ Oh. Oh. This was so very different. Both moving, and being held like this. After a very slight shift, he knew that Wally wasn't about to let him go. ]

[ So he did something else, completely forgetting just how much blood was on him for the moment. Maybe because he didn't know what not smelling of it would be like. ]

[ Anyway, he leaned forward, and crushed his lips against Wally's. This? This he'd waited for, for a very long time. ]

[ They'd shared kisses before, but Wally always practiced restraint. It wasn't that he could inadvertently injure Dick - he could, but that was never the worry - it was that he had never wanted to overpower Dick. He could have easily taken everything from his love when he was still a human, but now- now things were equal (more equal, if that were even possible).

Wally wasted no time in deepening the kiss, working his lips hungrily against the brunet's and seeking to play a brand new game with him. ]

Oh.

[ It was a faint breath against Wally's lips, but the kiss, the mere kiss? It was way more overwhelming than the whole world around him, and it was. It was more than he had reference to conceptualize. ]

[ The half-step he took closer was unconscious, and so was melting against his sire. But he needed both the heightened sensation and the support, right now. ]

[ Not needing to breathe all that much also meant that the kiss could go on for quite some time, except that, getting this excited made Dick's fangs ache, and he made a noise of distress, pulling back and using his tongue to press against the sharper canines. ]

These will make kissing awkward, won't they?

[ A moment, and he was back to more curious than upset. His eyes had started slowly clearing, though they were still too dark, instead of the nearly iridescent blue they would become, in a few hours. ]

[ They could have kissed for days if they wanted, maybe. It wasn't so much of a stretch, but even for a vampire, Wally's patience was short. He would have been glad to move on to all the deeper pleasures beyond kissing and spend days on those.

Still, the way Dick pulled back alerted him and he blinked in confusion at the question. And then he smirked faintly. ]

Maybe if you're going to go around kissing mortals, but I don't mind a little bite. [ Which... did bring them to another subject. Wally pressed close to his beloved and gave him a warm, fond look. As warm as vampires could manage. ]

Speaking of, you realize you have far more freedom now, right? [ And responsibility with it. ] Hunting isn't always just about... the blood.

[ Dick was grinning, at the near-purr of Wally's preference. It was good to know. Then his eyebrows dipped a little, as he tried to figure out the next part, and the rest... ]

[ He froze, at the last word. ]

[ Blood. ]

[ The idea washed over him, wiping out any other thought from his mind. He licked his lips, his body turning tense, dangerous, and he smelled the air, looking for blood. He could smell a lot of it, very near, but it was old, drying. Not part of a heartbeat. Soiled with dirt. A moment later, enough awareness returned to him to remind him that it was his own blood, and he wrinkled his nose in disgust, both to the quality of blood and at the idea of drinking his own. ]

[ Any hint of flirtation was obliterated from his body language. He loved Wally, he did - but he was also a newborn vampire reminded of his thirst. It might take a bit to get that under enough control for higher emotions to reassert themselves. ]

[ The elder vampire frowned at the sudden change in his lover's body - it took him a second, maybe a second and a half to notice what it was that Dick was smelling. He could smell it now - it wasn't as unappealing to him, having not come from him, but there was still the taint of earth mixed in with the blood, the taint of death as well. It was one thing to drink from a dying creature, and another to drink blood spilled from a creature already dead. It could start to stagnate like water and mean illness for their kind.

But then there was more to it now, wasn't there? Wally mentally sighed. He was hoping they would get more of a chance to just revel in this new life, but it was better to teach him how to feed now, rather than later. ]

Time to feed, my Robin. [ But then he took another look at Dick and sighed. ] Maybe we should clean you up first.

[ He blinked hard, each of the lid motions seeming to clear some of the bloody film from his eyes. He licked his lips, then canted his head, then looked down at himself. ]

That bad, am I? I think there's a river...

[ A deep breath, tasting the air, and he looked to the North. ]

That way.

[ Because water was the best way to get cleaned, right? ]

[ Wally turned his head in the direction Dick indicated, his senses far more honed by age at this point. Dick might have had more intensity on his side with his youth, the freshness of all that blood still in him, but Wally had millennia of experience - he could pick out different bodies of water on the air - ones animals favored - ones that were dangerous to be near and so on. This one was fine.

He looked to Dick and nodded once. ]

Best we get those legs of yours used to moving then.

[ His lips quirked a bit, and then he was gone with a vampire's speed, and Wally was faster than the average vampire. He wasn't going to coddle his love (much) anymore. ]

Oh, they're already--

[ And then Wally was gone, and Dick could see him moving, but, by all the gods of skies and air, he was fast. And he was so, so beautiful that Dick wasted a moment just admiring the sight, imprinted in the backs of his eyes, before dashing off after him. ]

[ Well, he wasn't quite as fast. ]

[ And, trying to catch up, he wasn't as graceful running, either as Wally or as his other motions. He considered changing the motion to leaping from tree to tree (he could!) but decided against it. This was a lesson. And, even if he couldn't be as fast as Wally, he should at least learn to keep up, over distances. ]

Have I mentioned I've never seen anything as dashing as you?

[ He was calling ahead, not too loud, because he knew Wally's ears would catch the words and know they were for him and him alone. But he couldn't resist speaking out what he was feeling. ]

[ Wally's ears picked up on Dick's words and he smiled faintly to himself as he continued to race ahead. He slowed down so the distance between them did not continue to grow, though. Still, at that speed, the world would have seemed a blur, if not for their predator's eyes, which focused just enough to make out what was necessary in the rush of light and color.

The smell of water got stronger, and in a matter of seconds, they'd be at the water Dick had originally indicated. It was a spring, of the sort people found in mountains, though this one was low-lying. The water smelled especially clean here and ran with a smooth sound. A perfect place for their first night as fellow immortals. ]

You're still the peak of excellence, my night-bird. [ His words were offered just as softly as Dick's had been as he waited by the water's edge. ]

[ Yeah, Dick, speeding up as he had been, couldn't just skid to a halt. With all that momentum, he dove forward and up, his body, obediently amazing, let him flip in the air more times than he knew was possible. For a human. ]

[ He wasn't, any longer. ]

[ He landed right on the edge of the water, a little lower than where Wally was standing, with perfect balance. ]

Oh, I think you still have a lot to teach me. About so many things.

[ Then the exhilaration-from-the-run smile slowly morphed into something else entirely. ]

And now you - we have all the time for it. All the time.

[ Wally's eyes followed his lover's flips like a cat stalking some intriguing prey; it was instinct, and sometimes that was hard to control among their kind. His muscles tensed involuntarily as if he wanted to leap up and catch the creature that stirred his blood so. He held back and watched with admiration as Dick made that perfect landing. ]

Mm'hm. So many things and so much time. [ And Wally sped forward, not hesitating to press himself against Dick and into the water. Nothing could hurt them tonight, and the water was clean, and heaven was burning over their heads. For the first time in thousands of years, Wally's life felt complete again- whole. It had been from the day he met Dick as a fearless child, but now it felt... secure. ]

[ Dick pressed back, against the older vampire, but the scent of blood was too strong, too distracting, and he really just. Pulled them both under the clear water of the stream. Possibly something he couldn't have done if Wally had been expecting it, but wet through they were, now. ]

[ Dick released the older vampire from his arms - it was himself that needed more of the cleaning up, Wally didn't have to remain submerged with him - and just let himself relax in the cool current. ]

[ After a minute or so - no need to breathe, so it was easy to remain still - he plopped his head back up over the stream. ]

Will it be easier to just get rid of the clothes? Will the blood even come out of them enough to stop being a distraction?

[ Compared to their skin, the water probably felt like a tepid embrace. Wally surfaced, but his eyes watched for Dick under the surface, admiring again and again how he took to these changes with ease. Wally had seen many people struggle against the strangeness of the change, but maybe having been with Dick since his youth had helped things...

He smiled faintly as he regarded Dick's soaked clothing. ]

It'll take a few years before it'll stop being a distraction; it lingers in clothes, especially to our noses.

[ Dick wrinkled his nose. He wasn't looking forward to the smell being so permeating, especially when he was so... so thirsty. ]

[ Out of all the habit that his life had brought him, he scooped a handful of the clear water and slurped from it. ]

... Augh! This really is no good!

You'll get used to it as well, for fooling mortals if you have to. But nothing will ever match blood. Well, except for good wine and spirits. [ Which he had been rather amused by when they were first discovered by mortals. Those were interesting times, figuring out the effects they could have on people. He had soon realized they could also be dangerous, if one went too far. Funny, though. It was just like blood. ]

You could strip if you'd like- get rid of those clothes. We'll find the nearest village and see about getting you some more.

Hmph.

[ Beat, and then Dick's expression stretched into a slo-o-ow grin. He was thirsty, very, very thirsty, but the mental image of being naked, in the middle of a stream, with the moonlight shining so bright and silver down on them... ]

Strip... all down?

[ That almost sounded like asking for confirmation. ]
