I want to see a work of fiction that reverses the "vampires are snobby upper class, werewolves are brutish lower class" stereotypes

Consider a vampire's reliance on blood as a metaphor for living paycheck-to-paycheck and depending on the kindness of others to get by, and the desparation that can make one slip into taking.

You know what would be a great idea?

Your typical urban fantasy/supernatural story with your average every day normal girl, and your brooding guy who turns out to be an immortal supernatural in some way.

And you have all the “romantic” cliches and suspense of will they won’t they.

Except the big moment, is basically the brooding immortal supernatural becoming the eternal dad friend to the girl instead of a romance, because ‘my god have you looked at our age difference? You’re a literal child?’ ‘Says the old man who has worst dad jokes than my actual father’

Look instead of a romance between the main two protagonists please picture a friendship where the supernatural immortal’s broodiness is just them being a long suffering old grump who is 1000% likely to adopt people, and the plucky young average girl behaves like an actual teenager and her fatal flaw is that she’s 100% willing to fight in any given situation no matter what.

When supernatural plot happens almost everyone who knows broody supernatural immortal is completely unsurprised that he’s hanging out with plucky heroine because his whole reputation is accidentally adopting stray humans.
