Even before he knew he was a vampire, Walter O'Brien was a million miles from normal due to his intelligence, but now, he's practically given up hope of ever being considered normal. But then, by some stroke of luck, he meets a mortal named Paige and her genius son Ralph, a fledgling vampire, who help him realize that he's more normal than he thought and that love truly exists.

In the midst of war, sometimes learning to love and belong is the hardest battle of all. An AU love story as if Scorpion was formed during WWII. Mostly Waige with a side of Quintis.

Walter has everything he wants, but a few ill-timed arrivals open old wounds and put it all at risk.

"You don't love yourself?" "No. Of course not. I never have."

It had to be done, y'all. Forgive me.
