Cassius and Fidelio children!!!

Here's their (currently unnamed) children! 6 perfect little girls and one darling little boy <3

ill draw all of them at some point

[pepsiiwho]

:( thinking abt they having a family “Sorry Bas,” and with a nod Fidelio turns towards Will “me lord. My lady’s under the weather right now, no sense pushin’ her up the hill to any party”

Will tuts, understanding if not disappointed. Basilio loved Cassius, of course he did they were family now, but the bond those two had formed seemed oddly close for two people that met relatively recently. If it were anyone else, Basilio would worry. With Will, that was just par for the course. It helped, naturally, that Cassius hardly viewed other men as much past set dressing compared to her husband. “Should I send someone out for her?”

He waves the idea off, smiling “‘s no point. She’ll bounce back faster than anything. She’s scary like that, nothing sticks to her long”

“She gonna be in shape for your birthday?”

He scoffs “going on 5 years together and I haven’t convinced her to skip a birthday celebration for me yet. Come hell or high water she’ll do something, sure as shit that”

“And you’ll love it” will adds uselessly

“And I’ll love it” Fidelio agrees.

“Del another?”

“You’re supposed to be happy for us you dickhead—“

“I’m Over the moon! But gods, you gotta get off the poor thing, you’re insatiable—“

“y-you’! It ain’t ME, you ass! I want a bigger family, sure but …” Fidelio looks away, blushing “You don’t see how she acts … I’d give her the fuckin ‘ Sun if she asked. A baby is light work in comparison”

Some Cassius/Fidelio HCs bc I think… I like them

- it’s a very classic case of “she fell first but he falls harder”

- both too protective of the other to be anything else then overbearing. Thankfully their partner isn’t normal so the insane baby hating is romantic not borderline restrictive and stifling. (“You need to wear this at all times so I can track where you are and your resting heart rate :)” “… you care about me enough to wanna know my location?” <- he is swooooning so hard)

- Cassius uses extreme and, frankly weird, methods of wooing Fidelio including, but not limited to: passive stalking, witness intimidation, copious gifts, blatant honesty, evidence tampering, and murder

- Fidelio is very clingy, yet still private, and it’s always a coin toss which side will win. If they’re being all sappy and in love together in a common space or library or lounge or something, if someone walks in who he’s comfortable with or doesn’t hate, he will continue to be clingy, while trying to seem unmoved or bored. Similar to his brother the tail gives him away everytime. She doesn’t rlly where they are or who’s watching when they’re together. She’s completely shameless.

- for such a volatile person, del doesn’t really fight often. He can’t bring himself to yell at her and Cassius isn’t the yelling type anyway. She’s more avoiding when things are bad. Del has to make her open up and share what’s bothering her.

- they spend more time apart then together and Del is always more irritable when Cass is there (“why the fuck are you botherin’ me? My lady’s waiting’ make it quick”) … in the inverse he is at his most agreeable consistently right before she’s gotten there and right after she’s left, still on the mental high of his gf loving on him (“… let’s take an early lunch… m’tired. You’re all dismissed”). Cassius’ behavior to strangers goes unchanged. Still as scary as usual

- by nature of living around squalor and people just trying to survive, Del has a passively low opinion of women. This initially turns him off from Cass, assuming she’s purposefully manipulating the men (Fidelio) around her with her (gorgeous, tantalizing, perfect ?) body and looks. He comes to learn, eventually, she’s wholly unable to use her body for her devices as she finds it repulsive in such a defined way she doesn’t know it’s affect on the ppl around her. At first this realization is baffling but by the time they’re committed to each other it’s genuinely making Del insane

- in an ideal good end, newly freed from their service to Louis, the two of them open a lounge/library by day and club/tavern by night in Grand Trad (or wherever the brothers grew up) and serve meals from Cassius’ tribe in Altabury. Del manages the place and performs often (playing a multitude of instruments and singing ofc) and Cassius is the research help and book acquisition-er(?). They are horribly in love with each other. Bas, before ascending to the role of king consort, works in the place as well as a chef on and off between street rehabilitations and his own fledgling romance.

- Cassius calls Del “Pet”, “Dee” “Fi” “Muca”.

- Del calls Cassius “Lady”, “Heart”, “Cass” (he defaults to more possessive monikers as pet names. Me/my girlfriend, me/my woman, me/my heart)

- Cassius loves all Fidelio’s scars and thinks he’s so handsome and strong. They’re proof he survived and he’s stronger for them. Del hates her scars, angry at a world who’d subject her to such nightmares. That said, he thinks she’s a perfect piece scars and all

- both of them horribly bitey and possessive. Bad combo. Hickies for days

- Del needs words of affirmation but speaks in acts of service. Cassius needs acts of service but speaks words of affirmation and gifts. They hear each other well

- would have either 1 child or 10, no inbetween. They’re like rabbits.

Group opinions:

Zorba: doesn’t understand the appeal of Fidelio at all, but thought their wedding was very pretty. Thinks they’re both pitiful for ignoring their duties to Louis to find time to fall for each other

Glodell: he thinks Cassius, while scary and intimidating, is too good for Fidelio on account of how distinctly not mean she is to Glodell. She’s also quite good with hector. He’s happy for her, vaguely. He cried at their wedding.

Louis: has no real opinion, for as opinionated as he is. He doesn’t think much of Cassius at all past an appreciation for how thorough her work is. More than anything he’s glad and proud his best friend found someone to love.

Basilio: he’s so happy it’s like not even worth detailing. Just know he’s their biggest supporter by a long shot. Asks for nieces and nephews as often as possible
