#Magnus the Red x Captain General

[learning-to-love-the-novel]

Pinned post v.0.1

Learning to Love (working title) is a gay fantasy novel that I've got like 50k words of notes about and maybe 5k words of actual text for (it's all random scenes from like the middle of the story and I can't fucking post them anywhere but I need to talk about this thing)

Setting: post-apocalyptic. Before the catastrophe it was a high magic society, about as technologically advanced as we are right now, except with magic instead of technology.

Characters: mostly magical academia people (several magical colleges/research institutes stayed fairly intact as social structures throughout the catastrophe). Basically, if you're someone from academia who also likes fantasy and mlm romance, these guys should be up your alley.

Story hook: newly Ph.D. guy comes back home, finds his professor dad a grumpy asshole (moreso than before) who mistreats his live-in maid/Ph.D. student. The student finishes his Ph.D., professor dad seemingly kicks him out, student is bummed, professor's son offers to go on some adventures together with him.

Creation notes (&reasoning behind some tags on this post) and tag list (to be updated) under read more

Learning to Love originally started out as a global AU fanfic for Alfabusa's If the Emperor had a text to speech device video series, itself a fix-it fanfic for Warhammer 40.000. But, as I worked out more and more of the details, I realized that calling it a fanfic is sorta dishonest.

The point of the Warhammer characters I was playing with, their essense, is war. War is their life, their purpose, the source of their tragedies... I didn't want to write about that. And if you keep that out of your wh40k fanfic, is it really a wh40k fanfic? Especially if it's a global AU, set in a world that bears no resemblance to wh40k or any of its versions? Personally, I don't think so.

Thus, Learning to Love is not a fanfic anymore. I changed most of the "inherited" characters to be barely recognizable, kicked out some primarchs from my story, remade others entirely (or maybe rather made up new characters in their place? hard to tell sometimes), put a couple OCs with no wh40k precursors in. But the main pairing started out as Magnus x Captain General Little Kitten (as anyone from that fandom can probably already tell), and their dynamic is still a version of that. (A very optimistic version.)

This is why this post is tagged with If the Emperor had a text to speech device and the several Mittens pairing tags. Don't worry, I'll only tag posts where I talk about Learning to Love's fanfic origins with that, which I can't imagine there's gonna be a lot of.

This change brought a problem: there were suddenly a lot of unnamed characters on the cast, because previously I'd just keep the wh40k names of their prototypes, and now I had to come up with all new names. The main duo is still unnamed as of now. (I might just leave the professor's son's name as Magnus... He's not even one-eyed anymore, I don't think this qualifies as copyright infringement)

Procrastination and ADHD dysfunction can take a hike, because I finally damn well finished Chapter 10: The Gathering Storm of the From the Ashes of Mars series.

And up next in Chapter 11, we'll be killing Kitten, AGAIN, because somebody needs to damn well bring him back to life as he was rather than "just" a sexy vampire hunter with a hot oversized ginger fiance <3

The goal is to kill him by the anniversary date, so let's gooooooo

WHEN REQUESTING (More rules will be added later):

●Include the fact whether or not your request is platonic or romantic; If romantic, is Y/n or character in a relationship, and if not, who is the romantic interest(s)?

●Give me some of the plot of what you're thinking for your request. If you don't, and I don't know what you want it to be about, or I can't think of what to make up- Example:

Optimus x Reader. Angst. Reader is male.

I don't know what the plot should be, or what it should involve. Like, if it's good enough that I can think of what it could be, then yeah, sure, but that will be a rare chance with me. But if it's like this- Example:

Aaarrrgghh x Reader. Comfort. Basically, the reader has had a bad day at work/school, and the two of them just cuddle and enjoy the silence in each other's arms, slowly falling asleep.

Then I will be able to think of how it can go because you gave me what you want to include in your request, but now how, I will be able to get behind that.

● I can make the reader be based off of another character, like- Examples:

-Vox! Reader in Trollhunters

-Reader as Ratchet's little sister in Transformers: Generation 1

Anything! Whatever you want as long as it's allowed.

●If your request involves something that isn't allowed, then it will be ignored.

That's everything for now! Request away!

Seed of Chaos Part 1

Fanfic, based on a weird-ass fever dream, I had while I was sick. This story has Mpreg so you are warned now! Don’t like don’t read :| simple.

 Warhammer 40K/ If the emperor had a TTS device. Magnus the Red and Captain-General. Spoilers for those who haven’t watch it. Not explicitly saying Magnus x Captain-General or a friendship that’s up to the reader.  

 (Had to post this before the new year I had just finished it.)

Despite the mundane and rather stoic air the Captain-General always carried, there was something off. His demeanor was shuffled and staggered, he used his Guardian Spear to hold himself upright. His breaths were panicked and his grip shook. He was afraid, of what it was he wasn’t about to share with just anyone. Thankfully, the one person he could trust or at the very least tell appeared. Magnus, one of the Emperor’s Primarchs and currently stuck in a more recent daemon form. A pair of red wings with blue accents towards the ends. As well as a large pair of horns jetting from his forehead. The Custode quickly flagged the tall Psyker down. “There you are Companion; I had wondered where you went off to-” Before he could finish the sentence the gold-plated Custode grabbed the Primarch’s wrist. “Magnus, I need to speak with you…” The Custode said urgently. Unsure of what the Captain-General was concerned about, they went to the Custode’s office to talk. “Is something wrong Companion? I don’t usually see you this distressed.” Magnus said somewhat worried. The Captain-General gathered his composure, “Something is wrong, but I don’t know what…” The Custode admitted quietly. Magnus’ brow furrowed. “You don’t know…” Magnus found it hard to believe. His Companion was always on top when it came to know a plethora of things. He began pacing the floor of his office. “For a while, I’ve been feeling ill. This seems impossible, I got checked out and saw nothing out of place. But something is very wrong.” The Captain-General said stubbornly. “Ill in what sense then?” Magnus asked still baffled. “I’m very fatigued both physically and mentally and any if all attempts at eating result in instant vomiting.” This made no sense; every soldier of the Imperium was built to be nearly invincible. What could be ailing one of them to the point of exhaustion?

Magnus hated this, one for not being unable to solve the mystery that plagued his Companion. Second if what he was saying was indeed true (which he believed) the Custode had no reason to lie to him. He couldn’t have his right-hand man in such a condition. He went to the Custode, knelt, and placed his hand over the General’s guarded head. “Uhh, what are you doing?” The Captain-General inquired. “I’m scanning over your body’s vitals to see if there’s any validity to your words.” The Primarch replied. “I’m not lying Magnus.” The Custode said plainly. Magnus slowly continued to move his hand but stopped when it was just above the General’s mid-section. His brow furrowed once again as he focused his attention. “What in the Gods' names?” Magnus uttered to himself. “Did you find anything?” The Captain-General asked hesitantly. “I did, but this doesn’t quite add up.” The Psyker replied. “You have something growing inside you.” The Custode nearly jumped out of his armor. “WHAT?! When? When did that happen?!” This stumped even Magnus. “Well, what is it, some kind of parasite?” The Captain-General asked in a panic. “I don’t recall there being any kind of parasites on the planets we’ve visited. This is quite the conundrum.” Magnus said to himself. The Primarch would need to research this, in the meantime, Magnus would keep a close eye on his Companion. “Until we can figure this out, I think it's best that you stay in my quarters if you don’t mind,” Magnus informed.

He quickly went to his mass collection of books and began to search for what could be the source. “Make yourself comfortable, I have no idea how long we’re…” Before he could finish Magnus saw the Captain-General had already passed out near his bed. Sparing a moment to lift the sleeping Custode onto the bed and placing his spear against the wall. “Rest easy Companion leave the worry to me,” Magnus said somewhat confidently. However, this was going to be far more difficult to decipher, than Magnus thought.

Two weeks had gone by and Magnus was still, at a loss for what could be ailing the Captain-General. All the information he had read about parasites or diseases were not relevant to what his Companion was experiencing. Sleeping most hours of the day and when he wasn’t, he was violently retching in the quarter’s lavatory. Magnus took a break from his books and went to evaluate the Custode’s condition. He had removed the Captain’s armor in hopes of making him more relaxed, but the Captain refused to take off the helmet. Walking to the bedside Magnus’ hoped the Custode would be awake. Slowly rolling to the other side to face Magnus. “How are you fairing?” The Primarch asked. “Not much different than before.” Captain groaned. “Here, maybe this will help.” Magnus offered a warm mug to the Custode. “It’s broth, something easy on your stomach.” He took the mug, holding it in his lap. “Thank you, Magnus.” The Captain taking a cautious sip. “I apologize, the fact that I haven’t solved this mystery illness is just,” Magnus said about to rant. “Magnus, please don’t say that. I know you’re trying to help and I greatly appreciate it.” The Captain-General said. That may have been the case, but Magnus was a scholar he was determined to discover the truth. He spent the next several hours running through his books again. Yet, he faced the same frustration after finding nothing. It was when a more common book caught his eye. A much older book judging by its appearance, human biology & anatomy it spelled on the front. Browsing the book wouldn’t hurt, so he opened the leather hardcover and read the dilapidated pages. Not much came off as important until he reached the chapter on reproduction. A small paragraph grabbed his attention, that’s when the realization hit him. Magnus teleported himself back to the Custode. “Companion, I have found the answer!” Captain General’s head popped up at the sudden exclamation. “You have?” The Daemon prince stood before him holding the old manuscript. “Yes, and the fact that I didn’t comprehend this earlier makes me feel like an idiot,” Magnus said rolling his eye.

“So… What’s wrong with me?” Captain-General asked anxiously. “There’s nothing wrong with you… You’re pregnant,” Magnus said as straight-faced as he could. Captain-General stared at him unblinking. “Excuse me? HOW?! That doesn’t make sense! How would I even?!” His outburst ceased and the two answered the question simultaneously. “Tzeentch.” The Captain-General took a breath, “But of all things to do, why this?” Magnus chuckled, “From what I’ve learned Gods are often petty when bested by mortals.” Magnus brought his right hand to the Custode’s shoulder. “And from what I can tell you’re not carrying an Eldar or an Ork. You’re most likely in the first trimester, which is why you’re experiencing such nasty bouts of nausea and exhaustion. Your body is making the necessary changes for carrying another human being.” Captain-General settled and glanced at the pages of the book. “Those symptoms should subside when you enter the second trimester, that’s when the baby will have significant growth. You’ll start noticing it within the third or fourth month.” Captain-General slowly glanced down and put his hands over his abdomen. “I still can’t believe I have another living thing growing inside me… The very thought just… Terrifies me.” He said shakenly. Magnus turned his face to the Custode, “I know, but you’re not going to do this alone. I promise you that.” At those words the Custode collapsed into the Primarch’s lap, sobbing in relief. “T-thank you, Magnus…” He couldn’t blame the Captain-General for his reaction, the whole situation was overwhelming, to say the least. Magnus gently patted the Custode’s back, mentally telling himself that it was going to be alright in the end.

Three months later…

“Companion, come out of there…” Magnus said standing just outside his wardrobe. “No.” Captain-General retorted. “I’m the one only here, we’ve discussed this I’m not going to tease you. Just put the robes on and come out.” The Captain-General grumbled in defeat and eventually walked back into the room. Still dawning his golden helmet, he now wore a set of white robes. Considering he couldn’t wear his armor at the time. Even with the helmet, Magnus could see the embarrassment radiating off the Custode’s face. “This is ridiculous.” He fumed somewhere between anger and humiliation. “Oh, nonsense you can hardly see it,” Magnus said regarding the small curve that had developed on the Custode’s abdomen. “I’m the size of the fucking full moon!” Captain-General spat back. Magnus’ expression dropped, “Now I know you’re exaggerating that part.” He knelt to the Custode’s level. “I know, you’re going through a lot. A lot of this that someone in your position wouldn’t normally be in. Getting upset about it isn’t going to fix it.” Captain-General just turned his head away. “That’s rich coming you and the Emperor who can throw tantrums, no one seems to mind then.” He said under his breath. “Do as I say, not as I do,” Magnus said calmly. “But you have every right to be angry about this.” Captain-General took a deep breath, letting the negative notion escape. “I know… I hate not having some semblance of control in all of this.” He saw the Primarch smirk, “Take it from someone who’s never been in control for most of their life.” Making a jab at himself to lighten the Custode’s mood. Captain-General playfully hit Magnus, “Okay don’t beat yourself up. I’m gratefully it's you I’m stuck with. Terra forbid I got stuck like this with the other Custodes, I’d never hear the end of it.” The very thought of it gave them chills. “To change the subject are you enjoying the book I picked out for you?” Magnus asked as they walked to the library. “Yes, actually at first I didn’t think I’d like a fiction story based on the allegory of mankind’s sins. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the concept of the king of fire and sea. A titanic beast created from humanity’s weapons of war, I’ll read more of it today.” Once at their usual place, Captain-General picked up the book, a black leather cover featuring a draconic creature. He settled into his favorite spot on the couch and continued the book. While Magnus went about his usual business of observation and study on the Warp. Sometime later Magnus came by to check on the Custode, “Going by the kitchen to make tea, care for a cup?” Captain-General nodded. “That’s sounds lovely, yes. Oh, and some sweets if you could?” He asked before the Primarch left. Teleporting to the kitchen, Magnus came across an odd sight of the two captains of the Blood Ravens disagreeing with what the qualifications of a scone were. I’m not even going to ask. Magnus said to himself placing the kettle and a mountain of sweets onto a tray. Then insistently fleeing the scene. Returning to the Library with the hot tea to the waiting Custode, setting the sweets on a nearby table. Magnus watched amusingly as the Captain-General snuck a cookie or chocolate in between the pages. Craving certain foods was another strange symptom of pregnancy that Magnus had come to learn.

Because hormones changed sensory responses in the body, it would make one type of food more desirable over others. In the Captain-General’s case, it was mostly sweet and salty ones. It wasn’t too much of a problem fortunately, he was sticking to the healthy everyday meals. The Captain-General retired early that evening, he did most days if he hadn’t slept through the day already. However, later in the night, Magnus was distracted by a sudden noise. Following it to the source he found the Captain-General whom, he had assumed had fallen asleep hours ago was violently quivering. As well as emitting distressful moans and tightly gripping the bedsheets. Carefully holding the Custode’s shoulders, Magnus attempted to wake him. “Companion, Companion wake up! You’re having a nightmare!” He whispered. It was no use; he was too far into his sleep. When Magnus tried again his wings reached over the bedside and touched the Custode. At the touch, he seemingly relaxed. Magnus wasn’t sure at first glance yet, low and behold the touch of his feathers soothed the Custode. I hope I don’t regret this… Magnus quickly magicked away his chest armor and slowly scooted next to the Captain-General and embracing him. Letting his wings rest over and around the shaking figure. Eventually, his hands made their way to the feathers and automatically took a hold. Magnus tried not to flinch as his wings were sensitive. Soon the Custode’s shaking stopped and his breathing calmed. Magnus decided to just stay in bed with the Captain-General to avoid any further commotions for the night.

The following day Magnus wanted to keep what happened to himself. Emperor knows how self-conscious he felt during the night and after. He was hoping and praying to whatever god was listening that the Custode didn’t bring it up. Magnus was reorganizing one of his bookshelves when he saw the Captain-General out of the corner of his eye. He was pacing around the room in thought. “Something on your mind, Companion?” Magnus dared to ask. “Was I acting strangely in my sleep last night?” The Custode inquired. If Magnus’ face wasn’t already red it would have been on fire with how much heat was rushing to it. “Yes, you were you appeared to be in pain or discomfort. I tried to wake you but to no avail…” This was when the conversation was going to turn awkward. “I didn’t know what to do… But when my wings touched your exposed skin, you then calmed down. Since I didn’t have any better ideas I got into bed and put my arms and wings to keep you at ease.” Magnus held his breath. “Well thank you, Magnus, I apologize if I put you in a cumbersome situation.” The Custode said. The Primarch was thankfully the chat wasn’t stretch out. “As for your nightmare can you remember anything from it? Vivid dreaming doesn’t usually occur until much later.” Magnus said. “It wasn’t vivid then; I can’t remember anything specifically. I just remember feeling fear. This is impossible, we Custodes have the fear breed out of us. Right?” Captain-General said laughing hollowly. The Primarch simply shook his head, “No, all living things share the same inherent trait of fear. That’s something no amount of genetic rewrite can get rid of. Primarchs, Custodes, and Space Marines alike we all have things we fear, Companion.” He lowered his head and wrapped his arms around himself. “I am afraid Magnus… For the longest time, I didn’t know how to say it.” Magnus saw where this was going and quickly intervened, embracing the Custode gently in his arms. The Captain-General no longer needed to fear the outcome because of his newfound emotions or how he had changed. Magnus was not there to judge.

Another two months later… (5 months)

Captain-General was sitting at the Primarch’s desk scribbling away on paper. He’d finished the book Magnus had lent him and several others subsequently. Despite being well into the pregnancy, he had an abundance of energy. He was drawing whatever came to mind, the encrusted wall structures and golden trim of the Palace, certain individuals, and a myriad of other items. Magnus peeked over the Custode’s head to glimpse at what he was doing. “Never took you for an artist.” The Custode smiled at the comment, “Thanks but it's nothing amazing. Just what you get when you have a photographic memory.” There were small portraits and sketches scattered around the paper. “Called it what you will Companion I’m impressed either way,” Magnus said sitting next to him. Captain-General had drawn out a few familiar faces in precise detail. Rogal Dorn was drawn from the chest up in his Centurion armor, with a fine amount of attention to his beard and face. As well as the throne bound emperor giving his glass eye a bit of shine and showing the wear on his bones. It was then the Captain-General came to a halt on the sketch as a concerning thought entered his head. “Magnus, when the time arrives… What are we going to do? How are we going to tell the emperor about this? It's not like we could keep this a secret.” He said solemnly. The Primarch took a moment before speaking. “We will have to tell him, yes when the time comes. No doubt he’ll unhappy but it shouldn’t matter what he thinks. You’ve been the one going through everything, not him.” The Custode didn’t respond. “Companion?” Magnus muttered trying to pull the Custode out of this strange trance. “Um… Kitten?” He called again getting the Captain-General’s attention. “Oh, sorry Magnus…” The Custode answered. “I was listening… I believe I just felt the baby move.” Upon hearing that Magnus almost unwittingly reached his hand out, then caught himself. However, the Captain-General took his hand before he could decline completely. “It's alright.” The Captain-General said softly. He guided Magnus’s hand to the spot on his swollen abdomen. Not long after a small kick was felt against the Primarch’s palm. “It’s so surreal isn’t it?” But the look on Magnus’ face wasn’t joy it was apprehension. “What’s on your mind?” The Custode took the Primarch’s hand in his own. “It just hit me on how this whole process is going to work, the birth I mean. I try not to think about it but it keeps coming back.” The Captain-General giggled at the statement. “Magnus, I trust you besides we have time to figure this out. You’re the smartest person I know. I couldn’t be in better hands if I’m being honest.” Trust, he hadn’t heard someone say that to him in what seemed like eons. He could hardly trust himself let alone someone else. But here was someone willing to test that trust and simply because he had nowhere or no one else to give it to. “I’ll do my best, Companion.” Magnus’ voice sounded vulnerable. “That’s all I’m asking for.” The Captain-General took the Primarch’s hands and held them tightly.

Card Morons {SK x TTS}

Had a dumb crossover idea and decided to draw it. I had an epiphany: I know two gold-and-red plated goofs that play card games. On the left is King Knight from Shovel Knight with some of his Joustus cards, while on the right is Captain-General Kitten from If the Emperor had a Text-to-Speech Device wearing his Duel Disk (Don't ask). I drew Kitten in his most recent outfit from the most recent main-series episode, so it might be a bit spoilery. I also decided to put in the King Knight amiibo fairy and Mini Magnus. I hope you like it! Also, speedpaint! (Now up!)

Edit: I don’t know why Tumblr is giving this a white background. It has a transparent background on DA.

Magnus the Red and Captain General Kitten, on their “bonding” trip to Nocturna to steal some reliquies!  TTS is a gift for my warhammer40k needs, and this otp stole my hearth and made me look at the primarchs lore...  under the cut what is hidden by the wings ;) 

they hold hands <3 

the scene where they are teleporting away after (not) killing Vulkan did not need such dramatic actions. Magnus could just have touched Kitten shoulder or something BUT NO! HE HUGS HIM AND WRAP HIM IN HIS WINGS thats love a really kind gesture of companionship.  right? :) oooonly that (nah, it’s looove)  proof: 

look at the tenderness!
