this will probably be mostly furibe (maurice nee makube/fritz) but we'll see what happens!

quick note: makube is technically from hellsing but he is for all intents and purposes a blank slate so. he's my oc maurice now and identifying him as makube hellsing on ao3 is simply a concession. if it's not set in the hellsing canon then i won't call him makube.
