the next morning, or: you go through the horrors just for your court-mandated therapist to be evil barbie (Bite Club 6/?)

- #art #oc #webcomic #biteclub #vampires #selkie

Hard cut to a new scene. Catriona is in her bathroom, wrapped in a towel as she leans over a filled bathtub. She's dunking her head into it. A conversation carries from the other side of the door:

Adelaide: Mommy!
Mr. Williams: SHH, Addy. Let's not distract Mommy while she's getting ready, okay? Catriona? C'MON.

Tight framing on Catriona's face under the water. She goes from looking peaceful, to screaming air bubbles.

Mr. Williams: The appointment is in thirty minutes.
Catriona: SCREAM

A series of three panels as Catriona seemingly gets ready. She puts lipstick on in the mirror, solemnly looks down, then looks at something out of the panel.

Voice, speaker unclear: Catriona?
Voice, speaker unclear: Catriona?
Voice, speaker unclear: Sweetie.

Over Catriona's shoulder, we see the scene has changed. Marianne stands in the doorway to her therapy office, beckoning her inside. Warm light filters out from it.

Mari: I said I was ready for you. Why don't you come inside? I think you'll find today's session particularly... productive.

mari wages psychological warfare while nik and griff do, uh, All That (Bite Club 5/?)

- #art #oc #webcomic #biteclub #vampires

Nik and Griffin just chilling on the couch after the Events. Nik has his bandana wrapped around his right hand, probably because Griffin made a mess of his hand. He's leaning against Griffin.

Nik: Hey — You know how 90% of the world is right-handed?
Griff: YOU moved your hand in the first place —
Nik: I did NOT.
Griff: You're twitchy. I was absolutely going for the wrist.
Nik: Then why the hell are you built like a jock when you CAN'T AIM FOR SHIT?
Griff: WHAT?

Hard cut to a new scene. Mari is back at the bar, talking to the bartender. Catriona continues playing music in the background.

Mari: I don't mean to be rude, dear, it's just that — well — the bill seems a TAD HIGH for all I ordered.
Bartender: Your companion did add THAT BODY.
Mari: My — Did he?
Bartender: I overheard you two talking. He came around in the end.
Mari: Oh, thank goodness! Do keep this between us. The poor thing can be SO SHY.
Bartender: Of course. Oh, and that musician you were asking about?
Mari: Mhm?
Bartender: I'm sorry, she doesn't take REQUESTS.
Mari: That's too bad.
Bartender: But she IS looking to hire a witch.

mari please come control your baby vampire he's biting people's knuckles (Bite Club 4/?)

- #art #oc #webcomic #biteclub #vampires

Close up of Griffin's eyes. He's increasingly uncomfortable as Nik unties the bandana from around his neck. It reveals vampire bite scars along his throat.

Nik: Are YOU?
Griff: No — 'Course not.
Nik: Because now I'm EXCITED. Why don't you weigh in yourself ... and tell me aaaaall about that MOUTHFEEL.
Griff: UH.

Nik looks confused as Griffin reaches for a tissue and smooths it out over his lap, a little like a napkin.

Griff: Sure. Right. And you LIKE this?
Nik: Yeah. That's... why I'm here?
Griff: Right.

Griffin takes Nik by his hand, like he might go for his wrist ...

Griff: Is HERE good?
Nik: Wow. I mean, it's a little PURITAN, but ... Sure —

.... but he bites down beside Nik's KNUCKLE instead.

Nik: The fuck.

what if we met on vampire tinder wouldn't that be so romantic (Bite Club 3/?)

- #art #oc #webcomic #biteclub #vampires

Three panels that show Griffin entering the booth. He's talking to Nik, who's still chilling on the sofa:

Nik: Do you have the app?
Griff: The 'app?'
Nik: Okay, gramps — I'm about to BLOW YOUR MIND. Do you know about CELL PHONES?
Griff: Hold on — I know what an APP is. I just don't know how the hell I'm supposed to know which you're talking about.
Nik: BLOODHOUND. I thought everybody who hung around THIS KINDA PLACE was on it.
Griff: Well, not me. Never heard of it.

They continue to talk. Nik urges Griffin to sit by patting the sofa beside him.

Nik: Like if TINDER and UBEREATS had a demonic baby? Hot, FRESH BODS in your area? I rate you, you rate me? No? Ugh, nevermind. Here, sit down.
Griff: So you're telling me people can leave reviews like: sweet guy, but the MOUTHFEEL'S kinda thin. Three stars.
Nik: You're asking mw if vampires are beer snobs?

some vampire/selkie yuri for the gals

- #oc #art #biteclub #vampires #selkie

Various sketchy scenes of Mari and Catriona. There's an ongoing thread of conversation between them:

Mari: You want me to kill your husband.
Catriona: Yes.
Mari: I'm a psychologist, darling.
Catriona: You're a vampire.
Mari: And why should I kill him?
Catriona: Trust me.
Mari: ... No.

technically a prelude to the comic: Mari gets suspicious of her mysterious edgelord client when she starts moonlighting as a musician at bite club

- #oc #art #biteclub #webcomic #vampires

Mari and Catriona during a therapy session.

Mari: It's a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Williams—
Catriona: Catriona.
Mari: Catriona. I understand this is a mandated therapy session, so I'd like to—
Catriona: I'm not going to say another damn word to you.
Mari: Well, I assure you that everything we say here is confidential.
Catriona: You have an obligation to report me if I intend to kill someone.
Mari: That depends. Do they deserve it?

Mari and Griffin at the Bite Club bar. A variation of panel 1 of the comic

Mari recognizes the musician playing... it's Catriona! And her teeth are all noticeably pointy.

proceeds to immediately find a guy who's like Please Kill Me It Would Be So Hot (Bite Club 2/?)

Three panels showing snippets of the dance floor: someone biting a woman's neck, another woman with vampire bites on her neck and a smear of blood on her chest, a man who stepped in a puddle of blood. The bartender holds up a card with a red cross on it. She's saying:

"Young. Naive. Indulgent. Not so different from the folks upstairs. Here — If you decide you want to INDULGE yourself somewhere safe and consensual — this is your ticket there. Just think about it."

In one panel, Griff walks towards a neon sign that says SINNERS BEYOND THIS POINT. In the next panel, he clutches the card close. The bartender continues talking over the panels:

"I'll keep your tab open. Just in case."

Griff gets his card checked by a woman at the top of the stairs. Vampires drift around him with blood on their faces and clothes. Someone moans in the distance.

The woman: Booth seven.
Griff: Okay...

Griffin comes to booths covered by red curtains.

Griff: Five, six... What in the Eyes Wide Shut bullshit...

Inside his booth is a man sprawled over a red sofa — Nik. He has a cigarette in his mouth and a bandana tied around his neck. He gestures around.

Nik: FINALLY! It's been, like, two whole hours. Can you believe it? This place closes in AN HOUR! You might as well tap me out for the night, man.
Griff: Oh God.

it's hard out here for vampires with hemophobia (Bite Club Part 1/?)

- #art #oc #webcomic #biteclub #vampires

Two comic panels. The first shows a club from above. Griffin and Mari talk at the bar:

Griff: This music is too fucking loud.
Mari: Go order a body, baby. You'll feel better.
Griff: Pretty sure that'll just make me feel WORSE.
Mari: SIGH. They offer themselves up because they WANT IT, Griff. Are you so ashamed of your nature that you'd deny them that?

The second panel zooms in on Griffin. He watches Mari leave.

Griff: That's ridiculous logic, Mari.
Mari: Think about it. I want to get closer.

The bartender approaches Griffin.

Bartender: So — She your maker or your lady?
Griff: Ah. She's definitely SOMETHING.
Bartender: She's not wrong, though.

They continue talking. Griff looks uncomfortable.

Bartender: People make good money doing what they do.
Griff: Sure. I mean — No offense, but I've seen the clientele you get here.
Bartender: Yeah? I get many LIKE YOU, too.

unstoppable force (my cringefail oc addicted to vampire bites) meets immovable object (a baby vampire who feels weird about it, formerly the resident IT guy of some sexy milf vampires)

- #oc #art #biteclub #webcomic

Two Nik sketches that illustrate him pulling down the bandana around his neck, revealing bite marks. To the protest of someone offscreen, he says: "We can go again. See? They're all healed up."

Griffin, a vampire, holds Nik's wrist up. They talk:

Griffin: Is this okay? This is so fucked up.
Nik: YES. Do it.
Griffin: How about here? Is that good?
Nik: You can literally bite me in the ass. Just DO IT.
Griffin: And people LIKE this?

Griffin fixing a computer for the vampire Mari. He says, "Ma'am, your last update is from 2002." To which she says: "How silly of me!"

In another sketch, another vampire MILF leans against Mari. She's extremely interested in whatever Griffin is doing and urging him to explain what a modem is to her again.
