Calling All Supernatural (no, not the show) Fans

Coz I’m guessing the majority here will fit into the target audience, I’ll like to get your opinions on this.

What is less creepy for a vampire and an 18 year old human being together.
A) a 150+ year old vampire (turned between 18-20)
OR
B) a vampire turned roughly 40 years ago at age 18-20 (is around the same age as the 18 year old’s father but IS NOT THE FATHER. Spoiler: Father and vampire were friends and grew up together before the vampire was turned, the father is dead)

Please comment (A) or (B) and if you like give your reason. Thank you in advance, this will help me out a lot.

    tbh both r ok but i'd pick A cuz they must fave suffered a lot and can joke around about their 100 years of experience, hehe just my preference, hehehe~ and gl (๑•ㅂ•)و✧

    Less creepy would be A because thered be less people to remind me (the reader) that vamp is over 100+ yrs old and immortality becomes no biggie when you get past a certain age

    But interesting is B because we dont get much of that but it WOULD be rather creepy because Ill be reminded that vamp is actually just a 40+ uncle who is likely still trying to get used to immortality so probably his mentality as an immortal is still not mature. Also the fact that a 40 yr old will be dating a human that just turned legal doesnt sit well with me. Probably when the human is around 21 or 22 is much preferrable because people are usually more experienced and mature at that age.

    Thanks, age is knowledge haha. B is the original plot coz it works better but I was always thinking how weird it was for the vamp to be the same age as the human’s father. Like if they didn’t look 20ish he’d be alive and look in his 50s, at least if they were 150+ the human would be long dead so age restriction goes out the window

    Haha, that’s more or less what I said in the other reply. I thought of it before for the reason it was new and different but couldn’t shake the “creepy uncle” vibe. Kinda reminds me of a book series “Strange Angels” there was a vamp who was 100 years old or something like that, he had the hots for the MC’s mum who died, then he started pining after the MC herself.
    Thank you very much for your input. I was resorting to “enny minny miny mo”

    I think B is fine so long as you age up the human a bit more. The uncle vibe wont be so prominent if the partner is emotionally and mentally mature and secure with themselves. Besides, im of the belief that (as a general rule) anyone above 21 can date whoever whoever they want because at that age, theyd have a bit more experience in life considering thats usually the age people arent sheltered by school anymore.

    Also i havent read that book yet but it definitely isnt my cup of tea. I mean some people could roll with it I guess (and I totally hold no judgements over it) but i dunno, its weird for me. Haha

    I was thinking of ageing up the characters a bit, the Mc was 16 in the first idea (yeah, I know bleh) 18 is the legal adult age in my country and the character is graduating from an academy.

    I’m iffy about making the characters too old, aiming for the YA gap and they want someone to relate to. It’s tricky coz I found the older I get, the more I think how impossible a person in a story under 17 could do the things they did. I’m in my mid 20s now and watch “The little mermaid” and I was like “Brat, listen to your father!” to Ariel

    That was a minor thing in Strange Angels and the MC shot that down, she even called him out on it.

    This reply will be showed after approved! YoonSora

    Gods I love that manga.... it’s pure gold.

    I like the different types of lore about vampires (everything but the sparkling ones) and enjoy mashing them up.

    Thanks for the input. I am thinking of going A mostly now. Talking it out with ppl online helps a lot, I get embarrassed trying to explain it to family coz they’re not big on supernatural stuff. And I can see their reactions....
