Summary: A new Sun has risen and fallen since Eric’s supernatural death at Godric’s hands, and now he awakens to a life that he soon learns is not a life at all. These are Eric’s first waking moments as Death, his childlike, demonic maker waiting patiently at the side of his naked body, keen to begin their journey into the coming centuries as dark companions. It seems however, that fate has brought the two together, as so quickly in death they share an unlikely, loving affinity.
Warnings: Obviously, spoilers may become an issue in this series, so consider this a warning to those who have not seen Season 2 Episode 5 “Never Let Me Go”, or any others thereafter. Other than that, PG-13 rating is for slight references to nudity and death, just to be on the safe side, although no content is graphic or crude. This is a co-write, so please keep this in mind when reading. Eric is written by

ikarusphoenix. Comments always welcome, but do not be rude because well, we bite back and you won’t like it. Thanks!
Author’s Notes: This short was written as a test to see if I and my writing partner could play the characters well, and capture the chemistry believably. Since writing it we deemed the project successful, and have gone ahead to write further chapters which will be beta’s and posted soon. The series will feature Godric and Eric’s relationship through the ages, and how they change, along with it and the times.
