Taylor Bevery: hapless, aimless, and hopeless both as a person and a vampire. Chronic acne, lanky figure, and braces make for an all-around pretty pathetic existence, not to mention his awful luck, poor vampiric skills, and even poorer life choices. Pretty much the only positive things in his life are his husky Stella, his best friend Charlie, and his kindhearted boss Mr. Rao. But he's not one to complain, because those three things have saved him many times and made his life bearable. Good, even. Still, in an attempt to prove to himself (and to whoever the asshole in charge of his fate is) that he is a capable and functioning adult vampire, he goes on a solo hunt at a local family farm, since cows are easier than humans when it comes to enchanting them. ...It goes about how one would expect when the universe seems to be constantly against them. But maybe things might start looking up for him from now on...? [Based on the 2026 ONC prompt #81: "unalluring and bumbling, your character is the world's worst vampire". Not an actual ONC submission, but just an idea that wouldn't leave my brain after seeing the prompt :3 Cover created on Canva, using @BeebleBoo 's art of Taylor <3 They can be found on TikTok under the same name ^w^)/ All other art was found on Canva and doesn't belong to me]

Max Corrigan doesn't consider himself lucky. He never won anything the few times he'd purchased scratch-offs. He's never gotten his coffee paid for by the person in front of him in a chain of 'paying it forward.' And he's certainly never had any luck with dating. All Zach Freeman knows is football. He lives, eats, and breaths the sport and, like all the greats, he is incredibly superstitious. Before having his heart broken, he had a plethora of rituals that had to be performed in order to win. Now the team is on a losing streak with no end in sight. When Zach realizes, through a series of undeniable coincidences, that Max very well could be the answer to his team's misfortune the whole time, he insists Max stick around until the end of the season--just until their coach comes back and they get back on the road to success. With the excitement of winning and a blossoming friendship, on comes much more than college parties and celebratory dances. Zach tends to push his luck and Max thinks it's just the luck of the draw.
