“Donnie, this is Jarod, my … ex.”uhhhhhhhhhhhh, just a quick something about a quick oneshot I wrote a couple months back. A sort of alternate universe of my Business AU (lmao, AU-ception). In that one mutants/animal humanoids are a thing, and I included a character of mine that I’ve had for MANY years, Jarod (a bat - Vampyrum Spectrum). I might draw some scenes of that small fic ‘cause it meant a lot to me at that time, especially when I needed to let some things out.Scene under cut, for those interested to read a snippet :)(…)As the duo was taking a break, the turtle left the woman’s company to go fetch more beverages, leaving Vee to herself near large windows that were overlooking the city lighted up like a sea of stars.And in that solitude, that’s when she heard a voice she never expected to hear again…’‘Véro?”She froze as she noticed him.Like a ghost from the past haunting her, she first thought it was her imagination playing tricks on her, but as she saw the dark grey bat move towards her, she knew it was too real to be an illusion.Jarod, her ex, was now standing before her, dressed in an elegant fashion and as handsome as ever. The tall bat took some time to look the woman over, the ghost of a smile always on his lips as he couldn’t believe the meeting himself…“Green hair, … new tattoos, and a smokin’ hot body as always. …Ay, dios, it’s been a while,” he said.“What are you doing here?” asked Vee, smiling although she was slightly confused by the whole situation.“Came up from Florida with my dad and Aliana,” answered Jarod. “We had some business to look over in New York, then we heard about this soirée and thought it’d be a nice thing to come by. … I’m glad we did.” He let out a quiet chuck, trying to make some sense of this situation: “And what are you doing here? I had no idea you were in this city…. you never told me where you’d move in fact.”Vee sighed briefly, trying to brush concerns away with a quick move of her hand: “Long story short, I was supposed to head back to Canada, but seeing how the costs for moving back and all that jazz were somehow putting me in trouble, I simply moved to this state.”“And New York city is less expensive than anywhere else?” he added, amused. “How are you able to survive around here? I’m guessing freelance work must be hard around here…”“Actually, I’m now working for a company as a project manager for a creative team.”“Which one?”Vee didn’t have time to answer as Donatello finally came in sight, drinks in his hands. As he got next to the woman, he handed her a glass of red wine with a soft “here”, Vee thanking him with a grateful smile.“Looks like you found someone interesting to talk to,” poked the turtle.Vee was somehow a bit uncomfortable, but she still showed a sweet smile as she presented the males to eachother.“Donnie, this is Jarod, my … ex. Jarod, this is Donatello, my boyfriend.”Both men were slightly surprised, looking at eachother, trying to seize one another. Out of politeness, Donnie extended his hand as a greeting.“Hi, nice to meet you.”Jarod shook his hand, keeping his cool as he answered “Likewise”. … Vee knew there must have been some turmoil in him right that moment. -- source link
