ok ok i really love what u've written here and it's made me interested to hear the full story or what kind of connections these characters have with each other! it's also making me want to learn a lot more about their whereabouts and universe, as it seems really interesting... especially the creature! honestly ur writing just made me want to know more about everything and it's quite dramatic in a slow, eerie kinda way (which is so good in my opinion) and it got me hooked haha
(sorry in advance for mine but idk how to put spoilers to free up space! it's a short interaction from mine and my bf's tokyo ghoul AU)

❛❛Mejara, can you please just go home? Now’s really not the time.❜❜
Daovia turned her attention to the other ghoul that Mejara seemed to be quarreling with, giving him a stern stare. ❛❛You too, Chinchilla. The two of you have caused enough trouble for one night.❜❜
Trouble was right. She could already tell that agents were on the approach. What surprised her was when she turned on her heel to find an agent already there, staring at her. He seemed surprised, and a little dumbfounded. She couldn’t quite pinpoint why.
❛❛You don’t need to worry. Call off your men - I have the situation under control.❜❜
The stranger still stood, speechless. He wasn’t in a fighting pose, nor did he have his quinque equipped. Was he frightened? No, he didn’t look so. Curious, perhaps, but nothing more. Daovia didn’t blame him. It wasn’t often a ghoul actively tried to break up fights and appeared peaceful to the enemy.
To be polite, she retracted her kagune and moved her position so that she stood at his level. He didn’t seem fazed by her approach - but it were almost as though he wanted to reach out to see if she was real. The Chinchilla had since fled, while Mejara kept a close watchful eye on the agent, prepared to attack if he did so much as lay a finger on Daovia. Luckily, he didn’t intend to.
Finally, he spoke. Quietly at first, with curiosity in his voice.
❛❛You look almost like an angel. A fallen one, but an angel nonetheless❜❜
It didn’t seem to have occurred to him that he had spoken out aloud until Daovia responded with a soft laugh, turning away. He suddenly appeared nervous and somewhat embarrassed, but still without letting down what little guard he kept up - and also without breaking eye contact with the odd woman.
❛❛I am sorry,❜❜ she chuckled, ❛❛… but I am unsure if I may take a compliment as such from a human?❜❜
The CCG agent stammered a response, ❛❛w-well, then you don’t have to.❜❜
Daovia thought for a moment, then gave a slight smile of amusement.
❛❛Perhaps if you can find me in your world, then I might reconsider.❜❜
***
Hirsch wasn’t one to frequent cafés, but after a long night on call following some S-rated fiend, he really needed some caffeine to keep his eyes open. Maybe a pastry or two as well, as he was feeling quite hungry. He ordered, then decided to look around for a table to sit at.
His anticipation for his meal quickly dissipated when he noticed a young woman with two-toned hair sitting at a table for two on her own, reading what appeared to be a romance novel from a quick glance at the cover.
The agent sat across from the woman, a hint of recognition crossing his features.
❛❛You look even more beautiful now that you’re without your mask. Are you ready to take my compliment now, my dear? ❜❜
Daovia looked up from her book with a smile.
❛❛Of course I am.❜❜
