streber x kevin

Title: Sweet & Spooky (or "Overtime & Fang-time")

Plot / Premise: Another long, exhausting shift at the CandyClub has Kevin ready to tear his hair out. Between the sugar-crazed kids, weird town emergencies, and the general curse of living in a place where October never quite ends normally, he just wants to lock the doors and hide in the stockroom.

Enter Streber—still recovering, a little worse for wear, maybe missing a forearm, and wearing his usual overly enthusiastic theatrical charm that somehow manages to pierce straight through Kevin’s wall of perpetual annoyance. What starts as an awkward late-night encounter over leftover sweets turns into an accidental, bickering-yet-soft hang-out session after hours.

Setting: The dimly lit, sticky-floored CandyClub after closing, with the neon sign buzzing outside and the eerie quiet of the town settling in.

Characters & Vibe:

• Kevin: Tired, sarcastic, chronically done with everyone's nonsense, easily flustered, and secretly a lot softer than he lets on.
• Streber: Optimistic (or trying to be), dramatic, a bit out of it, wearing his vampire gear or casual jacket, and completely unbothered by Kevin’s deadpan glares.
• Tone: Slow-burn fluff, comedy, awkward romantic tension, post-canon healing vibes.
