I have literally been losing sleep thinking of this pairing. So here's my little tribute to Charles x Van, because it's just so brilliantly twisted. ♥
"Those glasses - " Solomon remarked.
"Ah," Van said. "Forced habit."
Takes place sometime in volume four of the manga.
Contains spoilers. Partly AU. Solid Charles x Van.

Fandom. Blood+.
Title. The Magnificent Liar.
Characters. Charles, Van Argiano.
Genre. Hurt/Comfort/Drama.
Rating. T.
Chapter/s. 1.
Status. Complete.
It's been a long time since I wrote for Blood+! It feels great to be back, and I hope I didn't do so bad on my first attempt at writing shounen-ai. And I'm not sure if Van is French, but he had a French accent in the anime, so I just assumed it's the same for his manga counterpart.
I watched the series back in 2007, but I only picked up the manga the other day. It's such an embarrassment; I consider myself a big fan of the series, too! :( In any case, I love Charles immensely, and I simply can't believe that they replaced him with Karl in the anime. I've never been into shounen-ai, but I'm making an exception for him and Van, because there's just something about them together that's both twisted and fascinating to me.
I'm disappointed to know that there are only a very few Charles x Van stories in the archive, something which I hope to change soon. I have three other one-shots in mind for this pairing, and I'm pretty excited to work on them. It's probably very late, but I'm also trying to gather fans of Charles together; it's about the damn time people know about him! Most of the fans of the anime don't even know him, which is quite frustrating.
Anyway, I'm on my way to building a new audience for the Blood+ manga. Hopefully I succeed! :)
