Nick, I know you’re a vampire and all, but you’re also 800 years old and you drank that out of a glass.
“Your favorite medical examiner wants you to eat something this evening, understand?”
Natalie tries to wean Nick off the blood and onto regular people food, but it doesn’t go well.
Oh course you had to spit that out, Nick. That looks nasty. Come on guy, no one said you needed to cook your own dinner. I mean, have you ever cooked before? I’m guessing not. The last time you would have even needed to eat you barely had access to spices, if at all. You wouldn’t have even tasted sugar or vanilla. The last food you ate was probably nasty as hell.
Geez order a pizza or some pad thai or something. Find a waffle house. Have some hashbrowns and some crepes. Tacos and a milkshake. I dunno. Anything but that semi-edible hockey puck you’ve got there.
Me when writing fanfiction sometimes: I will take a hammer and fix the canon.
Natalie has a serious talk with Nick about his problem. #ForeverKnight

If I ever get around to writing a Dark Shadows/Forever Knight crossover, I am going to have Lacroix violently murder every character ever played by Roger Davies and there’s not a thing anyone can do to stop me.
Who wants to stop you? I watched Charles Delaware Tate at his most irritating last night, and the thought of Lacroix violently dismembering him fills me with glee. *eg*
I’ve stupidly started thinking about this semi-seriously, and I think instead of trying to think of some coherent reason for the crossover to exist, I’d just do a series of one-shot style vignettes of characters in both shows interacting.
And then every few chapters, La Croix shows up to kill another Roger Davies character.
I’d also like Nick to run afoul of a Trask. I wondered who could save him. I like the idea of Schanke rescuing him by accident and walking away still blissfully unaware that Nick is a vampire. Poor guy.
You could do Nick running afoul of a Trask in flashback–Nick has at least one every episode, so it would be perfectly in character! Alternatively, Nick could wander into Collinsport one fine evening and slip back through time (it seems to be a local hazard!)
Or… Nick could try curing himself using the I Ching, and winds up doing a time trip Barnabas Collins style, instead!
But I do like the idea of Lacroix popping up every once in a while just to kill a Roger Davies character!
He could probably hypnotize his way out of getting chained up inside a wall. Or he gets forced into the wall by cross-point and has to be rescued by a very condescending Lacroix.
Oh. My. God. I completely forgot of the I-Ching wands somehow. He and Natalie could have a go at them.
Natalie and Julia are talking about vampiric hypnotism, and Julia pulls out her hypno-medallion like “two can play at that game.”
Imagine Lacroix having a showdown with Nicholas Blair.
Or Professor Stokes…?
Well in Dark Shadows it was Trask who was walled up, so maybe our Nicholas could come along and release him? And then find himself in a whole heap of trouble for his good deed.
Barnabas did get himself walled up a couple times too. At least once by Trask in revenge, if I remember correctly. I do like the idea of Nicholas falling afoul of Trask in some way. Lacroix would have a hard time getting him out of that one by himself, seeing as he’s as vulnerable to crucifixes as Nicholas is.
I think I have missed a major possibility. Nick trying to arrest Barnabas for his early misdeeds.
“Seriously? Kidnapping a young woman and keeping her in your basement in hopes of brainwashing her into believing she’s your dead fiancee has nothing to do with being a vampire. Believe me.”

Look at this sulky vampire.
Nick kissed the curator he was talking to for a case and nearly bit her. So now he’s at home alone in the dark, drinking blood straight out of a wine bottle, and watching Bela Lugosi movies, until Nat comes over and tells him to snap out of it.
This scene is funny enough on its own, what with Natalie not having a single ounce of tolerance for his angst-fest, which threatens to ruin all the work she’s put into curing him. But then I noticed the shirt he’s wearing. It’s all drape-y and billow-y and old fashioned, like a poet’s shirt.
He wasn’t wearing it earlier when the incident happened.
See? He’s got on a black leather jacket and a blue button-down. Which means he came home and deliberately changed into a more suitably vampire-y shirt for his vampiric angst-fest. Does that mean poet shirts are the vampire equivalent of yoga pants?
That also begs the question…where did he get it? Has he been holding onto it for 800 years? If so, why? And how has it not fallen apart in all that time? More likely, he had to have bought it recently. From like one of those Noble Collection-type catalogs that Ren-fest people buy their costumes from maybe? (Now there’s an image.) So either he’s been holding onto it for 8 centuries or he bought it specifically so he’d have something to wear whenever he wants to sit in his apartment watching old movies and feeling sorry for himself.
See Nick? You are human. Keeping comfy clothes around just in case of angsting is about as human as it gets. The only thing missing is a pint of Haagen-dazs.
