Chapter Text
To say that Logan Taylor’s life was unusual was… an understatement. Sure, some parts of his life were normal. He was a high school science teacher who was passionate about all sciences, especially astronomy, and he lived with his three of his friends in Ekeisdale. They lived in a friendly but quiet neighborhood of Ekeisdale, despite being so close to the high school that Logan taught at. And Ekeisdale was a normal, small town. Nothing unusual about that. No, what made Logan’s life unusual were his three housemates. To put it bluntly, they weren’t human. There was Roman Silvestri, the mage; Virgil Caelius, the vampire; and Patton Bellamy, the werewolf.
He had met them all in college, by accident really. Virgil was his roommate, and Logan discovered his secret when he found out that the “Gatorade” that Virgil always drank was really plasma. (Logan, naturally, was horrified by this until Virgil told him that there was an underground blood drive for vampires, and that no humans had been killed.) Logan met Roman when he had accidentally bewitched Logan’s hair to a bright pink. The spell was intended to be used on Virgil, because Roman came from a long line of mages that disliked vampires greatly. Some of his relatives even hunted down and killed vampires, but thankfully, Roman wasn’t that extreme. As for Patton, he was Roman’s roommate, and sometimes got pulled into Roman’s schemes. Logan found himself enjoying Patton’s company whenever he came by with Roman, and oddly enough, the two of them became friends very quickly, bonding over the antics of their respective roommates. Logan found out that Patton was a werewolf when Patton had just simply told him.
Slowly but surely, the four of them became close friends. Though Roman and Virgil still had their differences, they managed to get along quite well. Sure, there were still the sarcastic remarks, the occasional prank or two (Logan had still not forgiven Roman for flooding their dorm room with bubbles that were bewitched to not pop for at least an hour), but besides that, everyone got along. After the four of them were done with college, they decided to buy a house and live there together. They searched around for a good place, until they settled on Ekeisdale. There was a high school there for Logan and Virgil to teach at (Virgil taught history, as he was alive for much of it), a theatre company for Roman (being a mage allowed him to pull off some dazzling “effects”), and a veterinary clinic for Patton (he was very attuned to how animals felt). It was perfect. A little hectic and insane, sure, but perfect. That is, until things got even more complicated, and even more dangerous.
