keys x eric was wonderful! thank you to whoever sent the request is it okay if i as for more? anything with these two would be amazing <3

Absolutely! I’m glad you liked! :O Here’s a bit more Eric and Keys..

—-

“I got you tea.”

“I’m sorry?”

Eric’s eyes finally flit up from the documents he’s looking over, meeting the eyes of the man in front of him.

It’d only been a few months since Walter Mckey had strolled into his office in search of a lawyer. Eric still remembers the way he’d fidgeted with his glasses as he dropped a pile of documents onto his dark mahogany desk and telling him he needed his help.

And now he’s in Eric’s apartment. Holding Eric’s novelty I ❤️ NEW YORK mug with a small smile on his face. Eric can’t help but chuckle.

“Making yourself at home, aren’t you?”

“I might be. I’ve been here- what? Every day for the past…” Keys looks to the side, doing the math in his head before Eric answers.

“Three months.”

“Three months,” Keys replies. “Three months of trying to get that asshole to give me what I’m owed for my coding,” He places the mug by Eric, who offers Keys a tilted grin. Keys groans, sitting down beside Eric and looking at the piles of papers splayed out against Eric’s table. Eric leans back in his chair, chewing his lip as he mulls over the mountains of information he’d read again, and again, unable to find a way out.

“They’ve got a safeguard for everything,” Eric begins, picking up a document. “If I find one hole, rest assured they’ve got another document- another stipulation, another term, another loophole…”

“So I just- what?” Keys asks, picking up another document. “Signed everything away without knowing? I’ll just never get that work back..?”

There’s a moment of silence between the both of them- an awkward, long pause that seems to stretch out for infinity and manifests into tension so thick either one of them could have cut through it. They’d shared moments like this before- moments of shared frustration as they combed through each file after file, document after document, contract after contract, only to find that the work Keys had put into the project would stay locked away.

Eric’s eyes left the mountain of documents to look over Keys, who’d lost that snarky spark Eric had grown to enjoy, and was instead laser-focused on a random document he’d pulled from the pile. “There has to be something..” Keys mumbles to himself. Eric’s eyes drift to the small junk drawer just a few feet away, and he slips out from his chair to open it up.

Keys almost doesn’t notice the sound of Eric digging through the drawer- in fact, he doesn’t notice anything until-

“Pick a card.”

Keys looks up from the document, eyes sliding down to see Eric holding out a deck of cards. He cocks an eyebrow.

“..You learn this in law school?”

“Something like that.” Eric muses, nodding down toward the deck of cards. Keys hesitates, but Eric’s eyes are enough to convince him. He takes the card, peeking down at it and grinning as he holds it against his chest.

“So what is this?”

“Well..when I was a kid, I used to love learning card tricks- put it back in the deck.,” He watches as keys slips it, face down, back into the deck. Eric does a little flourish, which is enough to elicit a chuckle. “And when I was in law school, I started to think of cases like…card tricks. Because on the outside, it’s sleek. It’s quick, and simple when you just look at it..” Eric places the cards over the tea, letting the steam hit the cards for a moment before holding them out in front of Keys. “It’s almost seamless…” Eric leans in close to Keys- mere inches from his face. He fans the cards out, and Key’s card has somehow flipped- now face-up in the deck in front of him. Keys chuckles softly, rolling his eyes playfully at Eric’s sudden dramatics.

“But there’s always something to be unveiled…and with a sharp eye, and the right timing..”Eric does the trick again, unveiling the sneaky slight-of-hand trick he’d used to complete it. Keys cocks an eyebrow, and looks up from Eric’s nimble fingers to meet his eye. “..you’ll find there’s something that solves it all..”

Keys smiles, eyes casting downward. Eric smiles, and slips the cards back into order, clearing his throat nervously. Their eyes meet once again, and before Eric has processed, Keys has already leaned in, lips pressing softly against Erics. Eric���s eyes fly wide open for a moment, before finally settling shut, dropping the cards onto the floor to gently cup Keys’ face. It’s a few moments of bliss, ended when Keys pulls away. And they stare at each other for a moment- dumbfounded. Entranced. Relieved?

Eric blinks a few times, eyes flitting to the floor at the mess of cards around the table. He chuckles softly, bending down to play his own game of 52 pickup as Keys turns back to the documents before him. But there’s a few extra moments of silence Keys hadn’t been expecting, breaking the quiet concentration he’d acquired.

“Eric..? You uh- you good down there?”

Eric slips out from beneath the table, a full deck of cards in one hand, an a folded document in the other. Keys pushes up his glasses, still squinting slightly at the new paper in Eric’s hands.

“…Did you..find something?”

Eric grins, and lets himself indulge in a little bow. “Abracadabra.”

i think the reason why daniel and armand would work is because, unlike all of armand’s previous relationships, daniel is a bitch that wouldn’t lie for his benefit. daniel’s whole thing is that he’s horny for the truth and violence. and armand doesn’t really know how to be a normal guy bc he’s a severely traumatized ancient vampire that probably has a personality disorder. and they’re perfect for each other! evil bitches that are into freak shit but they’re always absolutely fascinated by each other.

Being an Armand fan means that you have to hate him at some point. Like Armand as his own character is fine but when I think of him in regards to Louis and Claudia I’d like to curse his entire bloodline

Okay so like maybe hear me out:

Keys and Eric????

HEAR ME OUT—

Hearing and listening >:))

—

“You know I don’t do well at this game-“

“You don’t have to do well, you just have to- come on, test it out.”

Eric sighs softly as Keys grabs his hand, pulling him up from his mountain of assignments, sending a few of his papers slipping onto the floor. “I- hey, that’s a bit important-“

“It’ll be quick, I promise,” Keys replies, taking him to the desk in the main area, littered with monitors, cords, and various other pieces of technology that Keys had explained to him a few times before that only managed to scramble the already overfilled brain in Eric’s skull. Keys sits Eric down in the plush gaming chair in front of the biggest monitor, reaching over to snag a pair of large, cushioned headphones from their holder and slip it over Eric’s curls. Eric chuckles softly and adjusts them as Keys leans over him, clicking a few icons and starting up the game.

“What was it that you were working on again?”

“A new subsection of the city- new characters, new challenges, cool shit like that,” Keys replies, and Eric nods, acting as though any of it made sense to him. Keys steps back, and watches as Eric places his hand on the mouse, squinting against the bright lights of the game and beginning his exploration. He’s clunky- Eric wonders if Keys ever found it frustrating- but he directs his character through the new part of the game without much trouble. Until he pauses, his eyes darting toward one of the new landmarks Keys had created.

“..Eric’s Parlor?” Eric looks up at Keys, cocking an eyebrow.

Keys bites back a grin, and nods toward the monitor. Eric turns back to the screen and goes in. He stares for a moment, eyes locked in on the scene in front of him. His lips pull back into a wide smile- he can feel his eyes prickle with the threat of oncoming tears. Playing cards, a dove in a small cage. A large hat sits upside down atop the counter, a pair of rabbit’s ears peeking out from it in a loop of animation every so often. “It’s..”

A magic shop. Eric can’t help but let out a little laugh as he approaches the character stood behind the counter, a small ‘TALK’ icon hovering over his head. He looks over it for a while, eyes flickering in recognition. The character’s idle animation kicks into gear- he pulls a small deck of cards from his pocket, and fans it out in front of him. It glitches- and he returns to standing still behind the counter, eliciting a soft sigh from Keys.

“It’s uhm- It’s got a few bugs, I think, with the animation but-“

“You gave me a magic shop?” Eric asks, sliding the headphones off of himself and turning to face Keys. Keys smiles nervously, eyes flitting from the screen to Eric to try to gage his reaction.

“I mean- you mentioned that before you went to school for..law..”

“That I wanted to be a magician..” Eric finishes, unable to look away from the screen. Keys slips his glasses off, nervously fidgeting with them as Eric stares at the game.

“It’s- it’s not finished. There’s a lot to do. You’re basically like- an item shop, you know? People can come in, purchase a couple buffs, maybe- some skins. I was thinking of even like- putting in a game or something so people can earn a few experience points and-“

“Walter,” Eric says, snapping Keys out from his nervous ramble.

“Yeah?”

Eric stands, wrapping Keys up in a tight hug and resting his head on his shoulder. Keys relaxes, shoulders dropping as he slips his arms around Eric’s waist, hugging him close.

“It’s perfect.” Eric says quietly. “I never thought I’d actually…be a magician.” He can’t help but chuckle at the statement. But Keys doesn’t laugh- doesn’t ridicule, or dismiss the real weight of what Eric was truly saying.

“Well,” Keys says quietly. “Rest assured, while you’re up here doing your lawyer stuff..” Eric rolls his eyes playfully, pulling away to look at Keys, who slips his glasses back on and searches Eric’s eyes.

“You’ll be the greatest Magician Life Itself has ever seen.”
