    Summary

    The Collector was defeated. Belos was gone. The Isles were saved.

    But where does that leave him then? Where was Hunter supposed to go, now that his friends were all reunited with their families and his former place of living gone?

    He felt someone grab and ruffle his hair and when he turned around, his eyes widened when he saw Darius, when Eberwolf hopped into view.

    Eberwolf had insisted two weeks later that they keep a photo album. To have pictures so they could look back at all the adventures they've had together.

    He didn't get it when Darius eagerly agreed.

    Now, nearly an entire year later, he does.

    Summary

    Hunter has never called him 'dad' before but when he does in a moment of panic during a nightmare, Darius is faced once again with the intensity of what it means to be a parent.

    -

    The man glanced down at his sleeping form and he looked small, vulnerable, and trusting Darius to hold him gently after years of getting none of that from Belos. Trusting that the hands currently cradling the back of his head would never force it down, never grip his hair hard enough that it hurts. That a hug would not end up in bruises and reprimands about how weak and childish he was. Hunter trusted him and it was a gift like no other.

    Summary

    Dadrius Week Day 6: Palisman

    After Hunter has another nightmare about killing Flapjack, Darius shares a story about love and loss, and what's it like to lose your palisman way too soon.

    (or Darius tells Hunter how his palisman met their untimely demise at the hands of Belos)

    -

    “Everything was so formal and grand, you felt like the Titan was blessing you at that moment. That all the stories were true and once part of Belos’ court? Well you might as well be sitting near the throne of God,” Darius hissed through his teeth and closed his eyes for a moment, “What they didn’t tell us is that God did not love all of their creatures equally…”

    Summary

    "Hunter smiles widely and pretends very hard he’s not trying his damn hardest not to jump in joy. Darius doesn’t point it out, not even to tell him that he doesn’t mind.

    He’s not sure how exactly to say that without bringing unwanted attention to it that’ll make Hunter shut off again and keep as still and stiff as a toy soldier, like he did the first few times they had sewing lessons together. So he doesn’t say anything, hoping that eventually the kid will realize on his own that he can simply be himself when no one else is around."

    Or: Five times Darius realizes Hunter feels safe with him and one time he doesn't.

    Summary

    She awakes to the world through a wish of protection.

    The first thing she sees is a boy with an expression of wonder, and the warmth in her body lets her know immediately that she’s going to love him forever, his gentle wants what brought her dormant form to life.

    Summary

    That wasn’t enough for them to truly care, but the last truth was what made them dislike the Golden Guard: Darius was uncomfortable around him.

    And so he hissed and growled and watched idly as the other Coven Heads ignored the child’s requests and shoved him aside, staying content as long as he was at enough of a distance for Darius to not start acting strange.

    And then everything had changed.

    Perhaps he should have known that would come to bite him in the ass later.

    Dadrius Week Day 4: Dancing (Free Space)

    Darius teaches Hunter to slow dance in preparation for grom.

    -

    Darius let out a chuckle at Hunter’s frown and placed a hand on his shoulder, “Come on then, let me teach you so your friends’ toes are spared.”

    “Ha ha, very funny. I wouldn’t have stepped on them that much.”

    “Just a little. I am sure they will thank me later.” Darius said as he got up from his seat, and kicked his slippers away.

    Summary

    He had been so excited about finally getting to attend school like all of his friends, and the document that says he has been accepted as a student has already been signed and pocketed by Darius, who promised to make sure not even a small wrinkle would get on it, but he realizes now that he has no idea about where to begin.

    Going to school was one of the things he wanted the most in the world. And now he’s here. But what exactly does he want now?

    Summary

    "His frown gets deeper and he stops walking abruptly, looking around him with a critical eye, to the same houses he passes every day and the same ratty sign of a bookstore that hasn’t opened ever since the Day of Unity; this makes absolutely no sense, he’s been walking for long enough to be well on his way down the middle of the road to his house and then some, he’s sure. Was he really that lost in his thoughts?

    He takes a hasty turn on the corner of the next street, as he always does, ready to welcome the sight of the vines that decorate the outside wall of one of the houses and that he uses as one of the small marks that he’s going the right way and he stops on his tracks.

    A closed bookstore. A sign that has seen better days. He has to move. Now."

    Summary

    After living with Darius for a few days, Hunter decides that he should try to keep a low profile so that Darius wouldn't find something about Hunter that he disliked. This was especially important for his style, because he would never let Hunter stay with him if he knew what kind of clothes he would like to wear, right?

    Dadrius Week Day 3: Coven heads

    After his unnexpected and intense reaction to Hunter being in danger in "Hollow Mind", Raine and Eberwolf confront Darius about his budding parental feelings towards the boy.

    And it all comes to its boiling point when the three of them have to tell Hunter that his uncle branded him to die with the rest.

    -

    “Oh, you too? How is any of that important exactly? There’s a week until the Day of Unity and you two want to discuss my feelings about-”

    “About Hunter, yes. Do not go hiding on me now cause we are not moving until you tell me what happened back there,” Raine said dangerously low and came closer, trapping him between themselves and the table, “I had to spill my feelings about why I didn’t want to involve Eda, now it’s your turn.”

    Summary

    Darius Deamonne had always been to him a shining beacon of autonomy and style at the castle, and for a few months outside of it, the same thing was true.

    But that too changed.

    Around the 6th time the fashionable witch had appeared at his shop, there had been an unusual change on his attire that had let him frozen in surprise and caused Deamonne to raise an eyebrow at him until he recovered and quickly stumbled in his haste to retrieve what he was asked for. It wasn’t anything big even, just a small patch with what seemed to be a cartoonish version of a direwolf on it, lacking the double set of fangs and extra pair of horns, that nevertheless stuck out like a sore thumb because of how visible the stitches were and how out of tune it was from the style of the rest of the outfit, particularly the pants it was currently adorning.

    Summary

    Dadrius Week Day 1: Father's Day

    With Father's Day coming, Hunter's anxiety about the whole thing spikes up and he asks his friends for ideas. Shenanigans ensue.

    -

    Hunter could not see himself going to the man and asking him directly how he felt so a gift for Father’s Day should do the trick.

    ‘Hey, I know it’s been a couple of months and you are probably just taking care of me till I turn 18 but I think of you as my father, so no pressure, here’s a cake!’

    His face flushed in embarrassment and he buried his face in his hands. This would be mortifying, he would not be able to handle Darius looking at him weirdly or worse, telling him straight up that he was being too presumptuous. Nothing ever went right for Hunter and if it did? It inevitably crashed and burned at one point.
