It all goes so well when people don't see you, so it's easier to hide away. And why wouldn't you want to keep away from the eyes of others? You're hideous to the world at large, despite your own opinions of yourself, no matter if you're human or otherwise. You don't appear to be anything most would want to be around, much less befriend. If you're human, your appearance could be chalked up to mutation, a freak chance at birth, or an an accident later in life; if you're not human, you just happen to exist in a place where those who look like you would never be accepted by the mainstream. Maybe it's not even your whole appearance, though. Your point of contention could be something like an injury or prosthetic that makes you feel not whole, though it may be insignificant in the view of the kind and open-minded. There's more comfort in covering that up and not letting anyone get close.
In any case, you don't expect someone to love you, be attracted to you, or even want to be with you, especially a beautiful someone. Yet somehow, somebody does...or, at least, it seems that way. Will this new development last? Can you put your demons at bay long enough for it to do so?

PROMPTS
- Meeting | You've never seen anyone who doesn't balk at your appearance, but they don't.
- Growing Close | It starts as a friendship or an alliance, the grows to- more?
- Jealousy | There's no way they could see you as anything special. Surely, they have someone more handsome or beautiful in their sights.
- Realizing Feeling | At first, you didn't realize how your heart was feeling just by them being around, but now it's becoming clear: you're falling for them.
- Can't Tell Them | You'll ruin your bond with them should you tell them how you really feel. They'll be disgusted, so you'll keep mum.
- Touch | They touch you without a hint of distaste, which could be a big plus compared to what you usually deal with.
- No Difference | Actually, they can't tell that you're different, due to lack of vision or something similar. All they can discern is your personality.
- The Way It Used to Be | You didn't use to look this way, and it's hard to come to terms with your new look and how it affects
- Confession | You can't keep in your emotions anymore, or they accidentally get revealed.
- Good | They share your feelings! You never could have imagined this, but you couldn't ask for more.
- Bad | ...oh, you thought they...oh, they're so sorry.
- Scared | "Friendship" nor a "relationship" was never on their mind. In fact, they're scared of you.
- Cruel | All of their supposed kindness was actually just them using you for their benefit. To think, you really believed they cared about you!
- Defense | They step on the line for you, standing up to those who'd consider you a monster or somehow lesser.
- Uncovered | You're exposed and they can see everything you've tried to hide. You want to crawl into a hole and die. They want to keep you from feeling that way.
- Shouldn't Be | People oppose your relationship, and there may be some points to the arguments.
- Intimacy | Even being close, which most take for granted, could be a new and possibly uncomfortable event for you.
- Smut | The obligatory smut option, with all the baggage, angst, and difficulties that may come with it.
- Misunderstanding | You heard them insinuate that you're nothing but the ugly outside, or, at least, that's what you think came out.
- Bad End | The messy breakup option...or worse.
- Good End | The happy ending option...or better.
- WILDCARD

Beauty was something natural that came to vampires, something that was expected of them- especially if they were pureblood vampires. It was a part of being the elite breed, to be beautiful and worshiped. It was something that was far from Yuuki's reach however, even if others didn't think so. By human standards she was cute, if anything adorable. To vampires themselves? She lacked everything a pureblood should have- grace, talent, elegance, and most of all that ethereal beauty others would die for. This wasn't something she really thought on though, really she was more busy thinking of other things.
When she first met Hades it was like meeting a tall and powerful monster- not that he was ugly (to her) by any means, but rather he was frighting in all his might. It wasn't until they got to know each other better that she began to realize how wonderful of a being he was and despite what he was or rather who he was, she cared for him deeply. As time went on they both shared their worlds and viewpoints and grew because of it.
Still it was a new and passionate relationship and as such had its moments. She was like the light and he was the embodiment of darkness and as much as he craved her presence she needed room to be herself. She would often leave his side to continue on with her goal- to help humans and vampires live side by side. It was a foolish thought really, but it was something her mother was passionate about and something she wanted to continue.
The day had been filled with nothing but dark clouds and rain, and Yuuki had kept to herself for the most part. She had been sitting in his living room by a large window, reading a book. She wasn't overly affectionate but when the mood came she would be on Hades like glue. For today though she simply read her book, enjoying the weather. When Hades decided to come out of the shadows, she simply turned to him, offering a gentle and comforting smile. To be honest she had been worried that he wasn't happy about her coming and going from time to time but that was something she wasn't sure of. Should she be worried? Was he worried? She had no clue.

She was far to busy attending to her duties, maintaining diplomatic relations with Winter's allies, and collecting tributes owed to the Queen. But every once in a while, she was faced with a situation that made her stop and think. Or someone, like Loki, whom she couldn't stop thinking about. Someone who knew what it was like to be an outsider, trying to find their place.
Who made her feel something other than the numbness of Winter's cold.
