Erzsébet and the Beasts

Summary:

Erzsébet lives in a sleepy town with a whole house to herself. Due to rising costs, she needs new roommates... Her new roommates do Not turn out to be what she originally expected, let's just say that.

Notes:

It's taken me months to motivate myself to write this, and it's loosely based off of a roleplay I've had with some friends! I had a lot of fun writing these mini-chapters, and I hope that you like reading them!

This takes place in an unnamed town in Germany right by some mysterious woodland. Hee hee.

I'm posting this around the start of spooky season, so that's pretty fitting. Also, the story technically starts out after the first diary excerpt.

Enjoy!

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Chapter 1: An Introduction

Chapter Text

April XX, XXXX

I really feel like my life’s been flipped upside-down. I mean, all I was trying to see was if I could get a couple of roommates to help balance out rental costs. You can only make so much as you hop back and forth between teaching kickboxing and running an up and coming Etsy business. All I received in response to my online roommate ads were shady men or spam from porn bots. Eugh. It felt like I was hopelessly casting out a fishing line into a pond full of trash for weeks, but I had to keep going. Costs in town weren’t going down anytime soon. 

The ones who ended up living with me have never seen a lick of my advertisements, that’s for sure. What can I say though? At this point, they’re my boys. Two wildly different, borderline ridiculous boys! I couldn’t be happier, as much as it’s been a roller coaster. I don’t think I’d ever meet anyone else like either of them. 

After all, they’re not even human.
