"Dude we need to totally go to that new bar."
"Whatever man. We're going dirt biking in the desert tonight."
The roadtrip across the country! The wacky misadventures that leave the pair naked by the river! The Biker Bar Incident! Handcuffed together and hiding out in the confessional because of the crosses! The European Underworld tour and the time they almost scored the Succubi Twins if it weren't for Baazelbub coming home early from that vacation!
This idea, this one right here, this is SOLID GOLD. I would love to play a game where my pal is a nocturnal supernatural badass, but we still just do random crap together. That would be AWESOME.
It should have an element of sexual ambiguity, too.
Like, it should have a scene or two of probably-straight-guy-kissing-probably-straight-vampire (a la y tu Mama Tambien or Everyday Heroes, except with a vampire).
Looking back, I think some of my only unambiguously happy memories of V:tM are of essentially this kind of thing. You may be onto something.
Consequence-free indulgence of appetite, irresponsibility, giving the Man the finger, liberation from the annoying and mysterious demands of social propriety.... this IS an underrepresented facet of the vampire fantasy.

You know how Vampire Romance is all about your perfect boyfriend, the vampire?
Vampire Bromance is all about your perfect buddy, the vampire.

I'm going to write a short piece called "Cool Darius", inspired by your idea.
PS. I'm pretty much spamming this post with my excitement, aren't I?

I must admit that my first inclination was just "road trip! with vampire!" But there's probably some legs on this idea.

Then the Templars came and Giles was skewered with a spear. Hijinks!
