#with a cameo from copia and some ghouls

[ramblingoak]

*bursts through the door and skids across the floor, breathlessly*—YO HO HO MARY??!!

So I got an ask for vampire Mary and then someone else upped the ante and asked for pirate vampire Mary and really, who am I to resist that?? I'm really excited to get this finished (because I really want to share the banner and collage you made too xD).

Here is a little snippet I just wrote up (excuse any mistakes):

“Hey little starfish, what are you doing out so late?”

Your blood turned to ice water as the voice drifted up from behind you.  This was exactly why you were supposed to stay safe in your room at home.  Dealing with drunken sailors was easy but dealing with the man behind you was a different story.  Although technically he wasn’t a man at all…

Captain Mary Goore was a vampire.

When you gained the courage to face the pirate you’d been warned about since you were a child you couldn’t help but let out a fearful gasp.  They were dressed much like you’d expected.  All black from the three point hat on their head to the large boots on their feet.  You could see numerous weapons hanging from their belt: a flintlock pistol, a sword and at least a few daggers.  Those weren’t the deadliest weapons the pirate captain had though and when you finally looked up at their face the fangs in their mouth glinted in the moonlight.

“Does daddy know you’re down here?”  He grinned when you took a few steps back.  “I bet he doesn’t, I bet he thinks you’re safely tucked into your fancy bed.”

“No!  He does, he knows.  He uh, sent me down here.”  You flinched when the pirate laughed, a sharp sound that echoed against the alley walls.  “The guards know I am too.”

“Oh no, not “the guards”.  Whatever shall we do?”  Before you could blink he was right in front of you, mere inches from your body.  You could smell the ocean on him as well as something else, something metallic that made goosebumps break out on your skin.  “You know what I think little starfish?”

“Wh-what?”  You began to back up again but Mary matched you step by step until your back hit the wall.  “Please, I-I won’t tell anyone I saw you.”

“I think that no one knows you're out here.  Hmm?  I think you maybe ventured a little too far from your daddy’s protection.”  Mary leaned in close and took a deep breath, a deep groan leaving them when they exhaled.  “Has anyone ever told you how delicious you smell?”

Copia and the Ghouls Headcannon

🌟 main char: Copia, fire ghoul/sodo

🌟 cameo: swiss, rain

・┆✦ʚ♡ɞ✦ ┆・┆✦ʚ♡ɞ✦ ┆・┆✦ʚ♡ɞ✦ ┆・

Copia keeps finding Sodo in his bed everynight, under the cover, right before he sleeps. He does nothing, just lie down stiffly until Copia enters the room. After he sees Copia, he would just get up and leave. Things went on for a few nights.

Such behaviour did not go unnoticed and had Copia puzzled.

Why is the fire ghoul behaving such way?

It got to the point where Copia himself had gone over to the ghoul's den to find the answer.

Luckily, there is only one ghoul that can answer him and the ghoul is right there on the couch, resting.

- "Swiss"

Copia's voice broke the quite silence enjoyed by the said ghoul.

- "I, Papa"

He shot up to his feet, standing in front of Copia.

What brought Papa Emeritus IV here?

he wonders.

- "Sit down, I have something to ask about"

- "Is there anything odd been going on with Sodo lately?"

The question did not come as a shocker to the ghoul.

- "Other than him being usually the quiet menace, nothing really"

Swiss answered while fiddling with his Elfbar vape.

- "Are you sure?"

The satanic pope enquired.

- "Yes"

- "Ok- "

- "But"

Copia was about to walk away when Swiss broke the silence again.

- "well he did something. but I don't want to be responsible for outing him. do ask Rain."

the ghoul explained.

- "why Rain the water ghoul?"

- "because Sodo would never harm Rain"

It's true.

One a fire ghoul, hot magma flowing in his veins, mostly misunderstood by outsiders due to his hot nature. He can go from radiating warmth to causing a scene of outrageous flames.

One is a water ghoul, crystal blue water flowing in his veins, much like the fire ghoul. Calm and composed, that little one. But surely one must not test his limits, as water can be a calm pond and a raging sea at the same time.

Yet,

Sodo finds comfort in Rain's cool nature, while Rain finds warmth in Sodo's quiteness.

- "if so then, I shall be on my way looking for the water ghoul"

- "yes, Papa"

Copia left the ghoul's den and began walking around the monastery. After quite some time, he finally saw the silhouette of that one particular ghoul.

- "Water ghoul!"

Copia called out for Rain, who was happily tending the gardens.

The ghoul said his goodbyes to the plants and flowers and made his way to the Papa Emeritus IV.

- "Yes, Papa"

- "Have you seen Fire ghoul anywhere today?"

Rain shooked his head.

- "Have you noticed any changes in his behavior lately?"

Again, the water ghoul shooked his head.

Copia getting more impatient decided to rephrase the question.

- "Water ghoul, you see, for the past few nights, I kept seeing fire ghoul in my bed, right before my bed time. Once I enter the room, he will just get up and leave. Do you have any idea what the fire ghoul is doing?"

Rain mouthed an "O". From the reaction alone, Copia was certain he finally got the answer.

- "Papa, do you recall how many rainy nights we've had for the past one week?"

Copia was silenced for a few seconds before giving the water ghoul a soft smile.

- "Forgive me, water ghoul. I do not remember"

- "That's alright. Sodo has been going to your room right before bed time because he heard you cursing in Sister Imperator's office about how chilly these several nights have been due to the rain"

The water ghoul paused, looking around as if making sure nobody or no Sodo is looking at him right now.

- "Papa, come closer. After he heard your complaints, he decided to warm the bed and blanket for you, right before you sleep. So that you have better comfort."

Rain explained in a whisper mode. Copia, knowing full well how the fire ghoul would react had he knows his secret is out, smiled and patted Rain's shoulder.

- "Thank you, water ghoul. It gives me happiness to know that you ghouls are very thoughtful. Don't worry, your secret is safe with me and I won't say a word to the fire ghoul too."

Hearing the assurance, Rain's shoulder relaxed a bit.

Yes, the fire ghoul won't hurt him, but that doesn't mean Sodo won't throw a massive tantrum. Rain wouldn't want other people to be affected by it.

That night, as per usual, Sodo shows up in Copia's room at his normal time. He knew Copia wouldn't be there yet as normally, Copia would still be in his office trying to finish his work before the next day.

But, oh my Lucifer, is he wrong.

As soon as the door opened, he saw Copia standing inside the room.

Copia, who was already expecting the fire ghoul, chuckled as he saw him flustered by the door.

- "Come in, fire ghoul. You're 2 minutes late"

Sodo tilted his head.

What's going on, why is Papa here, shouldn't he be working?

As the fire ghoul approached Copia, he saw a tray of snacks. Unusual snacks for a man like Copia.

Some Carolina reapers, a bowl of Samyang Double Spicy Ramen and and a glass of hot chocolate.

- "I'm sorry to disturb you, Papa. I will take my lea- "

- "Hush, fire ghoul. Don't leave yet. Come, sit by me"

Copia patted the space next to him, on the bed.

Slowly, the fire ghoul went and say by Copia.

- "I do have work, but I came by for a short time"

There was silence from Sodo. He was puzzled.

- "Now, fire ghoul, I do not know why you're coming into my room these days, what antics have you planned with the ghouls for me, but, I figured that once in a while, you deserve a comfort night too"

The fire ghoul's eyes glistened. He was puzzled but the last sentence has awakened something in him.

- "So, while I resume my work in the later, you can have this bed to yourself, continuing your normal antics, and enjoy the snacks I prepared for you. You like spicy food, right?"

A very rare sight happened in front of Copia.

The stoic fire ghoul was smiling.

- "Thank you so much, Papa"

It was almost inaudible but Copia managed to catch what was uttered by the fire ghoul.

- "you're welcome, fire ghoul."
