Imperius getting a skewed idea of Gender, bcuz his first real encounter with one was with Rathma, who happens to be trans. He does not know he's trans. He doesn't even really know what a gender is, on account of angels not having them. All he knows is that mortals have them, and place some societal importance on them, so obviously he has the best most important gender for himself; none-gender with left-beef.

Rathma does not bother to explain anything, being an old fuck who stopped caring about that sort of thing somewhere along the line of six thousand years ago. It doesn't seem important to get into the minutia of mortal genders when he's got the big hot angel in his bed.

And so, Imperius, enlightened by this encounter, goes along assuming men must all have vaginas, and women get...something else. He doesn't know what, he doesn't want to know.

This may lead to him assuming Tyrael is a woman for this reason. They are still warriors who have known each other for eons, which really beats the shame out of ya. At some point Tyrael will be naked in front of him. And, being the discerning angel that he is, he spots the differences between the only other naked man he's really dealt with.

This idea has been percolating in my brain.

Buckle up this idea contains implied mpreg (which so does D4 itself so who gives a shit lol) and referenced past noncon. Also discussion of possible infant death, and Inarius being his usual bastardly-self.

But a D3.5 AU thing.

Tyrael discovers his brother is not only alive, but also free and on Sanctuary, by way of having him show up like some kind of fucked up stork and drop a scuzzy infant into his lap. Turns out its a certifiably 50/50 genuine angel/demon hybrid Nephalem. Not the quasi-super-humans Sanctuary usually gets nowadays. The real deal. He's got little horns. And a tiny, boney whip-tail.

Oh, it came from Inarius in some manner or another, but he wasn't interested in raising the first baby Lilith spawned in specifically for them, he sure as hell isn't taking on this one by himself. He can barely function for himself on account of the 3k years of torture. Whose the other parent? Who the hell knows, a lot was happening to him in hell and it's not like he was keeping track of who put what where. Torture, for three-thousand or so years, Tyrael.

Why didn't he just kill it? Fuck you, that's why.

(He certainly thought about it. He couldn't get rid of it while it was in him, and once it was out...it would've been easy. All he had to do was leave it where it'd been birthed, out in the Pandemonium wastes. It probably wouldn't have even lasted hours before something came along and had a fat little snack. He'll deny any kind of love or attachment to the little beast. The only thing that had him bundling it up in pieces of his own torn away robing and tucking it against his shoulder was...spite. Yes. Spite. He'd make this thing someone else's problem, and see how they liked being saddled with a tiny destroyer-of-worlds packed into a pudgy, useless, screaming little body. And if the way it swung clumsy fists in the air and grabbed for his face was the first truly gentle, innocent touch he'd had in millennia...well that was no one's business but his.)

(Somewhere, Rathma is laughing at him. And also concerned for his new baby brother pls don't drop him it would take at least a day for him to make it out to Pandemonium from the bottom of Sanctuary's ocean.)

Who better than to care for this thing than his treacherous, hypocritical, mortal-loving brother?

Well, he's not sticking around, so good luck when the brat figures out fire-breath, Linarian was burning entire barns to the ground by age twelve.

Tyrael takes all of this in stride, and he, Lorath, Donan and Elias now have a baby to raise. A super-powered baby the likes of which Sanctuary has never quite seen before. What could possibly go wrong. He names the kid Lee, in honor of Leah, and doesn't know how much the two would've had in common had she lived.

Lee is mostly a good kid. A little too clever at times, a little too eager to test rules and limits and break the rules anyway just to see what happens. But once he understands that rules are in place for reasons (we don't scale the bookshelves because they're not sturdy enough and could break, we go to bed on time so we're not so tired), he usually follows them.

True to what Inarius said, he figures out how to start a lot of fire way to quickly for anyone's taste. Usually he's good about using it only for defense, and not Dastardly Actions. Sometimes Elias is asking for it though. His stuff is the most fun to burn, he gets real mad about it.

Donan is inspired. He loves this little stinker. He wants one of his own. Lorath is a little bit horrified at the thought of another kid underfoot, as he finds Lee to be quite the handful. More than the other three, he worries about what happens when the nephalem grows up. He's going to be big, and he's going to be powerful. Inarius's last son changed the way people study magic, and commands the bloody dead. What's this one going to be capable of? And Donan wants to throw a regular human child into the mix with him? What the Hell man.

He's quietly supportive when Donan meets Braega and starts a little romance tho.

Tyrael loves his nephew. He's never had actual, proper family the way humans count it before. Yes Inarius is his brother, that's why he's in this whole situation to begin with, but there's has never been a 'brotherly' relationship.

Lee is so clearly his brother's kid it's a little scary. It's like having Inarius 2.0 running around but tiny and he grew like a damn weed the first few years so now he's all skinny-stretched out with lanky arms and legs. And that whip tail. It taps when he's annoyed or goes question-mark when he's happy, and rattles when he's scared or mad. Lee is usually scheming about something or another, and proud as a five-year can manage. He cares passionately and wants to know everything. Tyrael is enchanted watching him grow and change, and is certain this is the Mortal Experience in real time.

They encounter Lee's older brother a few times. Tyrael finds this unnerving. Lorath is defensive the whole time. Elias tries to get him to stay around and teach them death magics, to which he is politely but firmly rebuffed.

Lee doesn't know what to make of the tall, dark person who looks and feels and smells like he should know him. Rathma doesn't know what to make of him in turn, but does clock his other parent immediately.

They have the same nose, see.

It's not until Elias does something absolutely boneheaded and brings forth Sanctuary's ancient mother back into the world that this really becomes and issue though. After all, if her goal is to destroy her father, and she is a construct of his, then of course any other children he may have must also be destroyed.

Doubly so that this one happens to have come from her treacherous, disloyal, ungrateful fool of a former mate.

I've always thought it's cute that Itherael would translate documents for Eirena😆. I wonder if the dying angel that Eirena met was the prophet she knew. I hope not.😶
