A/N: This chapter goes all over the place timeline wise but basically can be placed anywhere after they are introduced to Yuta to be a monster or change in Rui's case. Just a little looks into some weaknesses of our monsters. Except Shion. He's special and because he's the oldest he doesn't get one this chapter.
Yuta really couldn't remember the last time he could really touch anything containing silver. Seishiro even more so as he never touched it a day in his life due to being born as a werewolf.
Poor Toru didn't even know at first. Sure, he knew that both Yuta and Seishiro always got plastic utensils when possible at school instead of the normal ones. But they never told him exactly way. And Toru never bothered to ask. It wasn't his place to know he felt like. All he knew was it was a werewolf thing and that's all he was going to stop it at.
The group was just spending a normal day at lunch. They were chatting and laughing, talking about everything under the sun from homework to their dorm mates to even the Kao Council.
Toru, with butter knife in hand, accidentally slipped in his seat and fell into his boyfriend. He blushed as he looked up Yuta's eyes, to which the brunette just chuckled and hugged his partner. Of course he also forgot about the butter knife in Toru's hand. As he was getting his boyfriend out of his lap, he accidently touched the knife only to quickly recoil his hand and hiss in pain as he tried to soothe it.
"Oh no Hoshitani! Are you okay?" Of course it wasn't a loud hiss so either Yuta was trying to hide it or it wasn't hurting much. But seeing his boyfriend in any sort of pain worried him and he felt even worse that it was because of the butter knife he was holding.
"You're good Naiyuki. I'm sorry. Silver hurts werewolves and a lot of utensils have enough silver to do the same. That's why Inumine and I like using plastic utensils."
He was fine. It's okay. It's evening, nothing will happen.
Eigo was usually a composed individual. Nothing could break his façade. But for a specific reason the dog barks were getting to him tonight. And of course without his boyfriend being there made it harder to deal with. A tighter grip on his bag and Eigo just kept walking, almost sprinting, to get back to the school dorms sooner rather then later.
That was when it happened. He passed by a house who must have gotten a dog recently. Either way, the thing was already running towards the fence barking at Eigo. Of course it was enough for the brunette.
With a squeal and a poof of smoke, Eigo reverted to his fox form. With a groan and his flattening at the event, Eigo grabbed his bag with his mouth and fled into the forest as fast as he could. He thought he was over the general fear kitsunes had of dogs but life had other plans.
It was one of those days at Ayanagi.
While Rui loved his newfound powers, and the fact that he could stand up by himself and can help Eigo when he needed to, there was some new annoyances that came with it. One of which was probably the most annoying: The sunshine.
He found out that whole myth of vampires burning in the sunlight almost immediately and knew it didn't kill him yet it also didn't make him sparkle like the vampires in those young adult novels teenage girl liked, he also found out that the sunshine wasn't all…Well sunshine and rainbows. The first time he stepped into sunlight after being turned, he was hurting the whole time. There was also something that looked like sunburn he thinks from it too but there was no information to prove that right.
Now he knew what to do when it was sunny so he didn't have to hurt as much. Dawning some sunglasses to protect his eyesight and an umbrella or his normal sweatshirt to give him some shade, Rui was ready. Sure it came with some odd glances of his classmates outside of his fellow monsters thinking he was a weirdo. But the glances died in time too and they accepted it as normal.
But Rui still wished he didn't have to go to this length every time he wanted to go out when it wasn't cloudy outside. It was annoying.
Riku was glaring at Akira. The dumb idiot had to had salt today didn't he?
It was going fine until the usual study group the Ayanagi monsters and the humans that know their secret had their usual meeting. It started off well enough too. But of course someone bumped into Akira as he had a jar of salt. And where did the salt land?
On Riku.
So now the boy, still feeling some light pain over his body from said salt and his wings screaming at him the worst to get it off (Oh forget about flying the next few days, his wings will not do that after having salt poured on them) was still glaring at Akira while the rest of the group was cleaning him off as best as they could.
"I'm sorry! Like I knew that would hurt you!"
Riku really didn't like the apology Akira gave but on the other hand the red head didn't know.
Daisuke didn't think of it twice at first.
The day was going along fine for the time being. Nothing went wrong. He was conversing with his friends with no problem. No interaction with water at school. See, his secret was in tact.
So when he went around with his fellow monsters he didn't think anything would go wrong. Nor did he think twice about that substance Rui had in his hand. As soon as he smelt it though he felt his head go floaty. Like his thoughts weren't his own anymore.
"All I'm asking for a hug. Is that so much?"
Before Rui could continue, Daisuke automatically gave the vampire a hug with a murmur of "Whatever you want." The blonde second year was confused at the whole scene before his brunette boyfriend took the piece of seaweed that Rui had for one of his science projects.
"Uh…Tatsumi, I hate to inform you but this thing you have for your project is ambergris. Which means…Daisuke is temporarily attracted to you."
