    Summary

    There’s a grunt. One, two, three, quick and panicked, and suddenly a large, fluffy mass is leaning into Tommy’s space.

    Still curled up in pain, Tommy almost misses it—almost misses the dilation of Techno’s pupils, almost misses the constant chuff, chuff, chuff, and snort, snort, snort, as Techno’s head dips down to look at him. But Tommy’s been looking for it all week, so, as if magnetized, Tommy still lifts his pained head upward.

    Instinct-Techno is back. The Instinct-Techno that looks out for him. The Instinct-Techno that actually cares.

    ---

    When Tommy was first rescued, he had told his crew that humans couldn't stand touch. Now, touch-starved and lonely, Tommy was willing to hold onto that secret forever.

    But when Techno falls into his instincts, Tommy's resolve starts to crumble, and he starts to wonder exactly what he has to do to get this love all the time.

    Summary

    "Don't do anything to him," Tommy manages, heartbeat throbbing and throbbing. "Please."

    Wilbur frowns, but it's Techno who steps forward. "Tommy, he's not going to do anything," Techno tells him cautiously. "You don't need to worry, alright?"

    To you, Tommy would say, if he was stronger. He's not going to do anything to you.

    But he doesn't. Tommy keeps his mouth shut—whatever it takes to stay.

     

    When Techno and Wilbur Soot-Watson anger a bully, it shouldn't be an issue. They are as untouchable as they can get, for students anyway.

    It's unfortunate that Tommy, their foster brother, isn't. Being their soft spot, it only makes sense that he becomes the next target.

    [CLICKS.]

    Jon

    What took you so long?  We’ve been waiting out here for ages!

     

    Martin

    You’ve been waiting for ages.  You got out of class five minutes before us, remember.

     

    Jon

    I don’t see what that has to do with Tim being late.

     

    Sasha

    Yeah, why were you late?

     

    Tim

    Oh get this, so you know how Principal Elias hates me?

     

    ~~~
    Just your typical high school AU complete with; mysterious principals, scheming teen sleuths, trespassing, petty crimes, games of truth or dare and a healthy amount of haunted buildings (allegedly). Like Scooby Doo but if the kids were British and their talking dog was named Martin 'K' Blackwood.

    Summary

    Jon hunts vampires. Martin is a vampire. Really, there's no way this is going to work out, and the fact that neither of them know the other's...night job...certainly isn't going to help.

    Martin's a soft man with a secret, Jon's a hard man with a secret. He's hunting down the vampires and werewolves of London. It's a dangerous job, but Jon's a cold one. Let's just hope he doesn't get cracked open.

    Summary

    “It’s mine! You’re not taking it!” The Dreamon hissed. The creature snatched the human up, which caused it to release a pained noise. Techno cringed inwardly at the position it was in. It looked weak and malnourished, nothing like he’d expected.

    “The thing looks like it’s beats away from death, surely you should just-“

    Techno raised his hands and started to inch towards the Dreamon, cautious not to draw too much attention to him. The other noticed and jerked the human further into the air, and Techno couldn’t ignore the pained whimpers escaping the humans mouth.
