20s AU Post
Current Carmilla plot outline
--Post-fire, Carmilla and Mr. Peanut team up mostly to use each other. Carmilla's spent the past several months (since November, it is now February 1925) networking, and it's clear to her that Alucard's not suited for the position and that the other two are the obvious weakness. Mr Peanut needs something back, so this is perfect on her end. Mr Peanut can only imagine the joys of vampire blood in his work, and he'd like an army of vampires for his own ends.
--Shit stirring from Mr Peanut (all of March?)
--Mr Peanut also begins to sell mis Miracle Serum, which has vampire blood in it.
--Gang is very much trying to murder Mr Peanut during this.
--Start of April, vampire gets a call from one of the blood bank contacts that 3 patients have come in and are displaying some bizarre signs. Investigation yields the fact that they're in process of turning, and they've all taken the same serum.
--Additional investigation reveals O FUCK IT MR PEANUT
--Meanwhile Carmilla's been made aware of a familiar she didn't sire, so she knows something's up. Big fight with Mr. Peanut and thus Mr. Peanut is left depowered
--Gang commits a murder
--Carmilla's well sured up on her contacts now, and it's time for open rebellion (mid-April)
--In a more subtle attempt to let Alucard just step aside, she cuts the breaks on demon car and shows up to gloat/suggest he not pull a dad and go to deal with his grief quietly while she runs the city. The how he wants to do it is up to him (black widow joke goes here.) Treffy and Sypha walk in.
--1 week of straight up rebellion; feedings, no help from allies, need to do damage control instead of fight carmilla, every dracula rule is
--MEANWHILE IN GRAVITY FALLS, triangle shows Vlad what's up to try and psyche him out, somehow this finalyl snaps Vlad out of his depression and he heads home
--Just in time for Alucard and Carmilla to be tearing each other to bits in one of the bayous, it's not going well
--Vlad coming in means the king of vampires is accosted by a belmont with a pair of blessed knitting needles and a speaker with a fucking gun and he's just like what the shit happened to the world while i was gone
--Wards around the fight means that only demon car can break the wards, everyone has to pile in.
--Carmilla gets her ass kicked AND SENT TO THE JUSTICE DIMENSION
THEN THERE WERE FAERIES.
--Prior to all of this the vampire and Sypha have done a shit ton of research on how to get their Belmont back
--Sypha has also been practicing debating with dad, which leaves everyone Very Tired.
--When Trevor is actually snatched up (1 year after marriage, it takes fae effort. Taking Arn's shape fails, so it's a lot more kidnapping by force), Sypha and Alucard go into Faerie
--But they're playing this as politics, not as heroes rescuing their damsel, so that means the faeries are just "wait what now excuse u?"
--There are 3 gates and 3 trials (the particulars we're still bullshitting.) Each is asked to sacrifice 3 things. (Alucard: voice, his titles as bestowed upon by his father and his people, i forget the third; Sypha: her human form (she's a birb), fuck what were the other two)
--They enter the court at the end of the third trial. After LITERALLY ALL THE TITLES Sypha declares she Speaks for Trevor Belmont
--Claim debate over Trevor, turns out that the rules are in Sypha's favor.
--But that means debating to leave Fae without giving up what they've chosen.
--Sypha lawyers it all out, Alucard is a safety deposit and hangs out with Fae!Trevor
--In the end, safe passage out of Faerie consists of Sypha giving up her memory of the necromancer (billed as a great mage she studied under), the vampire gives up his immortality, and Trevor is replaced with Carmilla (dad was aware of this option and OK with it), but Trevor has his ability to swear taken. He now soundslike a rubber ducky when he tries
--Everyone gets home okay, except for the AU of this AU where the gang fails, but Trevor's on their doorstep like a bat out of Hell because time doesn't work right and he's been in Hell for a WHILE.

[They don't know the ways it will manifest in the future. That there will be marks on Sypha's arms to show for it, along with the possessiveness of another as well. Here, now, the vampire can only listen to what is being asked of him, and nod to show that he not only understands, but shall do more.]
Then I shall. [The hands that have rested at Sypha's hips the whole time, holding her firmly but not any more so shift. Wrap around and pull her as close as they can, all while being mindful that too much pressure upwards will force her against his still healing flesh.]
When we're home tonight...
no subject
[As if for emphasis, she twists her fingers in his hair and gives a tug, not hard enough to hurt, but certainly enough to to get someone's attention, if he weren't already attending to her as it is.]
If your fingers left a bruise or two on my hips, from holding me, it would not be such a very grave sin.
no subject
I'll remind myself of that fact. [It will require some undoing of his own control. He's been careful about it ever since...since his mother's death, really, because it has seemed so dangerous to not have it.]
The world is more durable than I think it to be, these days.
no subject
[She pauses, tilting her head almost birdlike as she gazes down at him.]
But by the same token, don't think that I always mind it when you treat me like something fragile and precious, either. Sometimes that feels nice, too. You understand, yes?
no subject
[I understand. More than that, it will be so, because it will make Sypha happy. That's all he wants to do lately, and if that means letting a little bit more fearsomeness out, then so be it.]
It also needs to compete with my selfish desire to just look at you like this as much as I can.
no subject
[But she smiles, soft and almost beatific, and reaches to cup her hand against his cheek again.]
Then look at me, as much as you want. I'm right here.
no subject
They'll go back to the castle as dusk settles. He'll sweep her up to his...their room, and all that possessiveness she wants will be hers.
For now he'll keep looking up. It's nearly as blinding as looking at the sun.]
My Sypha.
