“ If I’m visiting, I hope I’m not here just to talk!”
Tumblr media
Shi-long turns them briskly away from the personal discovery of the day when drapes his arm around Klavier’s shoulder, leading him beyond the door.The blaze above brims with enough heat to unleash upon the sun-baked citizens of the city for the next twelve hours, and the wolf has taken a rare form of no leather, and tied hair. “ Tell me where we’re going. If it’s Pasadena, I might have an idea where you’re thinkin’…”
Nun, I have to let you know that there are many people who come over in the hopes of me, having time to ‘just talk’.
Tumblr media
Of course he knows that Shi-Long Lang is different. Those other people who drop by and hope to get to talk to him are mostly fans. Most of them people that work in the Prosecutor’s Building or police officers, that manage to get in due to a work request.
Klavier tries to be polite when denying them a meeting. As long as he is in the office, he is a prosecutor first and a rock star second.
The thoughts dissolve when Lang places his arm around Klavier’s shoulder. He follows obediently through the door, leaning into the gentle touch. Ah, how much he enjoys having the other around.
I have been thinking about Pasadena, ja. What is your guess then, hm?

Perhaps too clear, even… Maybe we should drive out of town. There were all those youths running around and partying in the park last month.
Only when they’re both in the elevator does Bobby pull off one glove and take Klavier’s hand to hold. He brings his boyfriend’s icy fingers to press against his feverish cheek, letting out a soft sigh as the chill soothes him just a little. He closes his eyes for several seconds before opening them again, smiling.
You know, I think these nights are easier on me when I have a solid meal before sundown. Let’s get something heavy from the nearest Kroger’s store deli–a whole ham, maybe.
Klavier glances out of a window as they pass by one and notices that Bobby is, in fact, right. There isn’t a single cloud on the sky, and it doesn’t  look like it was going to change anytime soon. That did indeed mean a rather clear night.
You are right, mein Lieber. I guess a little late night hiking trip is called for.
Once the elevator doors are closed behind them Klavier turns towards Bobby, but the detective is faster. He has already removed his glove and grabs Klavier’s hand, putting it on his feverish face. The prosecutor’s blue eyes turn soft.
Let’s get two, just in case. On nights like these, you get quite active. I can imagine you getting hungry after chasing through the forest all evening long.

I’m leaving home and moving in with some friends around August 11th, but I’m jobless, have two cats to transport at prices I can’t afford, and I have next to no savings to cover most of this. I have to get out. I’ve hit my breaking point after seven years of being outed to my family and spiraling into suicidal depression and helplessness.
Come August 11th, it will cost me $95-$100 in pet carry fees for just one of the two airplane flights I need. It will make a world of difference for me if I can get help with even one of those travel fees. My cats have been my main  companions over years and years of an isolated lifestyle. I need them.
Every single dollar, every donation of any size makes a difference for me. Thank you so, so, so much if you decide to contribute.

“… I don’t bring help to work.”  Long, thin and dark, the cane he’s pulled from the top drawer is bordering on a type of elegance,not quite matching the punk motorcycle fashion he still insisted on having, even in the middle of a hot summer; the silver wolf’s head bares its’ teeth  at his thumb, and the crook sticking out is woven out with intricate silver designs,and tiny, engraved writing.
“ Only your chief prosecutor knows I had that injury, and lucky him, he saw it happen. “
Tumblr media
Thus, needing the extra help picking out a longish pair of shorts that successfully covered the area,along with the rest of his ‘celebrity in public’ outfit.  If a pair of them traveled together, how often would someone pick the famous one between them? “ I think I’m doin’ pretty well at disguising it.  You said we were headed for good food today?”
Nun, you did indeed pretty well at disguising it. Otherwise I would have found out about it much sooner.
Tumblr media
He couldn’t even be mad with Shi-Long Lang that he had kept it a secret from him. It’s not as if the two of them were the most trusting people to begin with. Of course, Klavier tried to be open and honest with him whenever he could, but as someone who had been betrayed by loved ones a lot, there was always a little bit of doubt left.
And of course, in return of having those feelings, Klavier had no right to be mad at Shi-Long Lang for keeping certain secrets himself.
I am, ja. Did you come here to pick me up, mein Wolf?

Bobby enforces the workplace conduct policy as much as his partner does, but sometimes he wishes he didn’t have to keep up the professionalism and could just slump into Klavier’s arms for some much-needed support. At least he can smile with some of his regular affection as the prosecutor wraps up his paperwork.
Maybe we can find some place to go for a walk tonight. I’d like to properly stretch my legs.
He falls into step next to Klavier. Normally the champion of justice stands straight-backed and chest out; for now, he has a slight slump from all of his aches and pains.
If a walk is that you want, then of course I will make sure you get one. The night should be a clear one, so a walk sure would be nice, ja?
It feels good to have Bobby so close, walking right next to him. He would prefer, considering the situation, to wrap his arms around the detective and hold him tight, but due to their professionalism, Klavier decided to hold back outside of his office. He doesn’t want to have rumors spreading on them - especially not when those rumors where, in fact, the truth.
Are you in the mood for something specific to eat? We still got some time left to drop over at a store and pick something up before the sun goes doen.

“Oh, yes! I’ve missed my little baby!” Her other baby, anyway. Maria and Lyra had become so used to each other that Maria had made her one of her honorary cats. “I love her! Take me to go see her!”
And then, she thought, you can take me. 
That was actually her plan from the start, but the promise of seeing Klavier’s adorable cat took precedence for a while.
Having Maria come to his place to see his little lady is a rather innocent excuse. He knew that he did not have to make one - not with her. But Klavier knew his little princess. Lyra was just as spoiled as Maria was and once his beloved had entered his apartment, Lyra would claim her attention for sure.
He would let her have it, for a little while. Afterwards, he would claim Maria’s attention all for himself.
Well then, Milady.
Tumblr media
Let’s head off to my place.

Winter comes with a new anxiety for Bobby now as sunset creeps steadily creeps into earlier hours. He has to call off work entirely too soon on one of his transformative nights, in fact, pissing off his lieutenant.
He shows up outside of Klavier’s office with pain already etching lines into his face. “Prosecutor Gavin. It’s time.”
Whereas Bobby suffers from the shorter days during the winter season, Klavier, as a vampire enjoys them. It’s saddening for him, considering that once summer was his favorite season - but what can you do when you have been transformed into a vampire?
He has been aware of the moon cycle, has started to keep an eye on it for Bobby’s sake. Handling his werewolf-self has gotten easier over the course of the last months, but the vampire still stays on guard.
Herr Shades...
He has not expected Bobby to show up so soon, but as soon as he informs him that ‘it’s time’, Klavier nods and puts away the papers he had been reading. He stuffs them into an envelope which he picks up, together with his phone, his wallet and his keys.
He would take a look at the files later, at home, when the worst things were over.
Then let’s get going, ja?

“Oh, stop it, Klavier. Come on.”
Tumblr media
Maria swatted his arm. Perhaps boys never truly outgrew laughing at crass things sometimes.
Tumblr media
“Well, maybe we could go to your place and figure it out…”
Maria did enjoy Klavier’s company, and would not have minded simply having a bite with him, but she had gone so long without seeing him that she couldn’t help herself.
He couldn’t help but laugh softly when Maria swatted his arm. He loved to tease her, to joke around with her. He thought that she looked so very beautiful when she scowled at him - not with real anger or fury, but just a little bit irritated.
To my place, hm?
Tumblr media
It had been a while since I escorted a lady to my place, that is true. Also, I think Lyra will be very thrilled to see you again. She is head over heels with you, whenever she gets the chance to meet you.

“I was ordering a new dumpster,” Maria rolled her eyes. “Some teenagers came rampaging through the neighborhood and spray painted penises all over it. Can you believe it?! They were all in different colors. Who has the time?!”
Tumblr media
“Anyway, that was dreadfully boring, so I’d love to have some fun~” She traced his collarbone with a finger.
Pensies? Oh, but that does sound rather beautiful.
Tumblr media
Klavier imagined that there could have been worse things than pensies being spray painted all over the neighborhood. Of course, it was still a criminal act that needed to be looked into... but the prosecutor assumed that the police would be bale to handle that.
Fun, huh? And what kind of fun are you thinking of, Milady?

Out in the night, it’s buzzing and lively, the warm night heavy with bodies and faces all spread out on the strip, blazing lights and drunken stalling.
“So- I’ve got to ask now.”
Tumblr media
“ Anything you don’t like being called? I’ve got to get a sense of what I can torture a musician with.” He keeps close by his side, but never letting him overtake completely by lead. There is less movement with his eyes, free and loose to turn his head whenever a sign catches his eye, or nudging Klavier out of the way of incoming walkers with his shoulder.
Klavier appreciates the warm nights in this city. He still remembers how cold it could get in Germany, where he grew up. Is parents would always chide him to wear a jacket.
But the beautiful, warm night is not what Klavier is focused on. Even with his gaze trailing away, looking at the people they pass, his attention is solemnly on Shi-Long Lang.
Anything I don’t like?
Tumblr media
The question makes him laugh a little bit.
As if I would tell you something like that, mein Lieber. But I can assure you, I am used to being called names. ‘Princess’ was a very popular nickname in the past, one that I did not appreciate but also couldn’t get rid off.
Having the other close by his side, having him guide Klavier through the crowd safely - it makes him feel all fuzzy on the inside. The prosecutor does not mind leaving the lead to Lang. At least not for now.

“Klavieeer, honeyyyy.”
Tumblr media
She ran over and threw his arms around him! It might have been more touching, had they not been outside of the Department of Motor Vehicles. “I missed you! It’s felt like a century!”
Milady!
Tumblr media
Klavier didn’t care that they were outside of the Department of Motor Vehicles. He embraced Maria tightly, resisting the urge to lift her up and spin her around in his arms.
Like a century, huh? That’s not good. We have to see each other more often, so that you won’t feel lonely without me, ja?
What are you doing her, meine Liebe?

I know, I know, there are few pillows in the world better than me! I should’ve been featured in a mattress commercial years ago…
Lyra stamps over Bobby’s head on her way to her first target. He makes a muffled noise of surprise and props himself up partway to run a hand through his own rumpled hair, blinking.
Terrible manners from such a cute little girl, aw…
She won’t be “little” much longer, though. Lyra has grown beautifully over the time she’s been with her dads. She’s too beautiful now as she tries to pull out a mouthful of Klavier’s hair.
If you would have been the star of such a commercial, their sales would have gone through the roof for sure.
Klavier chuckles softly, bathing in the warmth and comfort of their morning together as long as he can - that is, before Lyra decided to interrupt their peaceful rest.
He laughs softly as she walks all over Bobby’s face, but quickly scoops her up when she starts biting into his hair.
Hey now, young lady, you know that you cannot do it. You throw up your own hair more than enough, what do you think will happen if you start munching on long hair like mine?
It’s obvious that Lyra doesn’t like to be interrupted in her task, the way she struggles in Klavier’s grip. He sets her down again between Bobby and himself, quickly brushing his undone coil over his shoulder.

“A tease?!”
It looked like she already prepared for the second shot… But instead something was clearly turning in that head of hers. She instead threw the snacks into her mouth and munched on them. Angerly.
“… Fine…” She finally grumbled out after swallowing. “If you promise to talk to her, I’ll try to be ‘nicer’…”
“But I still don’t believe in her having a good heart or whatever. So, if she hurts you or me or anyone in any way… it’ll look like an accident.”
Klavier expected the second shot to happen. He expected the bag of Snackoos hit him full force, as a whole. But when Ema suddenly grumbled a ‘fine’, he couldn’t hide his surprise.
Oh. Uh, yes, of course I will talk to her. Try to make her understand that she should not anger you too...
The prosecutor couldn’t blame her at all, for not trusting Maria to be able to behave. Klavier himself was quite sure that it wasn’t that easy either. It came already as a surprise that Ema was understanding. He wondered how much harder it would be to make Maria understand and promise to be nice as well.

“Then it’s settled. You and me. “ His sentiment even warms with a sweetness  when lips meet again, shorter and chaste.  The paper is crumpled, and tossed into a bin a few feet away, narrowly missing someone else’s legs.
Tumblr media
“ Let’s get out of here. My stomach’s growling for more than drinks.”
Klavier’s blue eyes follow the piece of paper that is crumpled in Lang’s hand and tossed aside without a second glance. It brings a smile to his lips. So the whole interview and taking notes was just for show, in the end?
Tumblr media
That sounds like a good idea.
He quickly places the cash for their drinks on the bar before slipping from his stool, closing up to the other man again.
This evening seems to become more and more promising by every passing minute.

Ema was about to sigh and let it go… but then the other just had to go and word it like that! She puffed her cheeks and furrowed her brows.
“What is that supposed to mean?” She grabbed a handful of Snackoos and threw them at Klavier. “What do you mean ‘my usual self’?!” Clearly he meant you doing what you were doing right now, Ema. “I am a perfectly stable and nice person when not agitated! Am I not?!”
He had already expected to be hit by the wrath of Ema Skye, in form of a hand full of snackoos hitting him on the head. He managed to raise his hands in time to doge most of them, but one missed his eye really by only an inch.
Damn, angry women were scary.
I have to beg you differ, Fräulein Detective. You are quite a tease yourself and unfortunately, Maria is not one to take that teasing as lightly as I do. So if you want to be at peace with her, you have to be nice to her too.

Ema shook her head and sighed sadly, as if she was mourning over a pet fish. He was far too gone, in her opinion. That two-faced primadonna must be a master of manipulation and this glimmerous fop obviously didn’t have standards.
“Ugh, listen, just because I’ve worked with a bunch of entilted pricks, doesn’t mean I grow tolerance for them.” She puffed her cheeks and looked aside. “Like, yeah, I’ve been a dick to her, but I am a dick to everyone who thinks I am beneath them. She clearly does. I imagine she is the kind of woman to treat all the customer service employees like they aren’t even human.” She threw another glare Klavier’s way, this time accusatory. “I just can’t understand how you can stand it!”
Klavier can’t argue with Ema about the way she described Maria. He knew that it was true - she was rather difficult if you didn’t know how exactly you had to handle her. He couldn’t explain exactly what it was that drew him towards her, that made him feel the way he did towards her.
She is a good person, deep down. But she does have issues... which, honestly, is no surprise if you consider who it was that raised her.
That Manfred von Karma had not been a good person wasn’t a secret, really. That his behavior had left a negative imprint on his children wasn’t really a secret either. You could see it, in Maria but also in Franziska and even Miles. They all had done shocking things, or shown bad behavior, that could be traced back to the influence of Manfred von Karma himself.
If she is giving you too much of headache I could try talking to her, ja? Aber you would have to promise me in return to try not to agitate her as well. I cannot ask of her to be nice to you when you keep being your usual self around her. That will, in fact, only piss er off more.
