    Guillermo had cautioned Nandor about drinking too many of the Mayday partygoers, but of course Nandor hadn't listened. Now he's making it Guillermo's problem.

    Tomorrow, of course, he will pretend that none of this ever happened, and Guillermo will just have to live with that.

    Summary

    There’s something in him, something terrifying, darker than he ever imagined. Monstrous, but not in the way he's always longed for. And as much as he wants to separate himself from that voice, he knows how powerful it is. He knows how hard it is to defy, how satisfying it is to obey. He only has to obey for a second, and then…

    ***

    Five times Guillermo suppresses his slayer instincts, and one time he doesn't.

    Summary

    Summary

    He throws it out as a random fact in between dusting the candelabras, ‘so uh, funny thing from when I visited my family, turns out…’ and she snorts like he’s told an unexpected joke.

    "Hah, yes, wouldn’t that fuck everything up?” she laughs through steady motions as she plaits her doll’s hair.

    Guillermo doesn’t answer, hands working mechanically through the housekeeping routine he knows like breathing. He counts upward slowly in a private game of chicken, waiting for something to fill the silence. (Nine, ten, eleven - thirteen years, thirteen years-!)

    “Huh,” Nadja says finally, and he can tell without looking up that she’s staring straight at him. “Well, that is a shit thing.”

    ---

    Guillermo learns some things that might change his future forever. But he's not going to face that news alone, whether he likes it or not.

    Summary

    “Fine!” Guillermo said, standing up. “Well, if you’re not going to help me, I’m going to find someone who will. There’s gotta be some sort of crew on this boat-”
    “Oh, no, you don’t!” Nadja shouted, pushing him back down into the box. He yelped in surprise. “You are not alerting the crew to the fact that they have a chubby little stowaway-”
    Guillermo stood back up, glaring at her. “Well, I’m getting back to shore somehow, so-”
    “And how the fuck are you going to explain your presence on this boat to the humans up there?”
    “I’ll figure something out! I have to!”
    “No, you fucking don’t!”
    “You don’t get it! Nandor is all alone-”
    “Oh, I don’t get it? You think I don’t get it? You think I don’t get having a huge fucking idiot for a husband who does piss-brained stunts if he gets a bad feelings instead of talking about them? Because that is the very situation I am in right now!”

    Summary

    “Of course, mistress Nadja,” the Guide curled her lips into a smirk, slightly nodding, their head slowly turning back towards the wraiths, but their gaze still steadily focused on Nadja.
    They felt a hand stroking their shoulder and what came to their mind instantaneously is that maybe, just maybe, they were a little wrong about being free from those sappy, smitten thoughts.

     

    The Guide tries to focus on their new job, but new realizations keep dawning on them and Nadja isn’t particularly helping.

    Summary

    A portal to the Infinite Corridor is underneath a Denny’s on Staten Island.

    It’s a bit of a problem, with it being half-formed and sucking up theater kids after a production once in a while. Normally, if an insane asshat wanted to open one, they’d have to supply it with a crap-load of sacrifices to power it. But in the modern day, a steady supply of poorly wired electric cables has supplied it with energy for the past 30 years.

    In typical immortal fashion, the vampires had known about the problem and could have fixed it years ago, but forgot about it or pushed it to a later date. Now, the current vampire council decided that it is time for a solution after it sucked up the Baron’s dog.

    You end up in Castlevania's world during a real shit time.

    Summary

    “There,” he says. “Taken care of. Now back to my problems—“

    “NANDOR!” Guillermo is already yelling, snatching the vacuum away and pressing his face to the dusty old bag. “Can you hear me?!” He thinks he hears a defeated, squished help, and he scowls at Laszlo. “How the hell am I meant to get him out of here in one piece?!”

    “Not my problem,” Laszlo deadpans. “What is my problem is that I’ve run out of porn to read.”

    “Holy fucking—“ Guillermo is off, muttering curses as he unearths Laszlo’s laptop from under a pile of crap. “Use your computer. You know, the one you made me steal from Best Buy?! Just Google it!”

    “There’s porn on the internet?”

    “THAT IS ALL THAT IS ON THE INTERNET!”

    Summary

    wwdits kinktober day 23 - massage

    --

    “There’s a massage parlor, a weight room, a sauna, and more. You should come get a massage.” He dropped the curtain and counted the options out on his fingers, looking pointedly at Guillermo like each feature the gym offered should sound more impressive than the last.

    Guillermo pulled the other earbud out of his ear, eyes snapping back up to Nandor’s when he said “massage”. It was his turn to flounder. “You’re serious?”

    “What, do you think I am just making up massage parlors now? If you thought they died out in the nineteen-eighties, you would be very wrong.” Nandor huffed through his nose good naturedly. Guillermo’s thoughts teetered on a seesaw of apprehension and excitement, and there was no camera to turn to to confirm that this was a real conversation they were having. “Why wouldn’t I be serious?”

    --

    Guillermo's got a tough shoulder; Nandor suggests they try out the massage parlor at his new gym.

    Summary

    Day one in The Cage he imagined biting Guillermo. Not even in a vampire way, just to be a bitch. Once he realized he obviously couldn’t do that, and when he felt the loss of his humanity for the second time in his life, he decided fine, there are other ways to piss of a familiar.

    Nandor reached a blunted claw into his mouth, up to his fang, and back as far as he could push until out popped his inhumanity, and in pushed a familiar feeling of “hey, that was nice.”
