Ronin and reader headcannons (w/ romance if thats fine I couldnt find ur rules page sorry) , you and MK had shrunk together, so maybe sometime after the movie, Nod and Him become "stomper" size and MK's like: "nah dude you gotta go to Y/n's house" and they go to your large slightly dysfunctional loving family to regroup and stuff. You have become my new favorite account bc i found no one who writes Epic, especially Ronin. <3 You have been followed and will be loved aggressively
Yay! Welcome to the club lol the fandom may be slightly dead but that doesnt keep some of us from making content XD Hope you like this hun! Haven’t written much for Ronin so this is fun!
This is definitely not based off of my family nooo why would you think that??? (Tho I only have one brother lol)
When you had first shrunken down and met Ronin, you hadn't been as trustful as MK was.
Given, you went with MK as emotional support so she had someone to fall back on if things didn't go well with her dad, and after being shrunken while stressing about helping out your friend, you were a lot more on edge than she was.
When Ronin made it his job to escort the both of you to Nim's, you weren't as receptive of the idea as MK was, but hey, MK was kind of in need of a strong figure in her life and you weren't going to argue with that.
Over the period of that day, seeing Ronin, talking to him, noticing his own grief, even though he was pretty attractive and it made your heart skip a beat when he pulled you in by the waist to get you away from MK's crazy pug, you told yourself "we just met” and left it at that.
So imagine your surprise, several months later, when MK shows up with both leafmen while your youngest siblings were causing mayhem in the kitchen, your eldest brother wrestling with your dad over the last couple pizza rolls, and your mom stuck in a standoff with the cat since it kept trying to eat the bills on the counter.
MK explained what happened and why Ronin and Nod were suddenly big now, but you weren't able to say anything before she was like “Ok bye! Take care!” And left them with you
You were SO going to get her back for this
Honestly, you were surprised that your family didn’t mind them showing up, but you also lived in a loft above the garage so that you had some privacy from the rest of your family.
After introducing Nod and Ronin as “some of MK’s friends”, you moved them up to your small “apartment”
Nod was already a hit with your youngest two brothers, showing off his sword skills by slicing fruit in the air as they tossed it at him
Ronin took a while to adjust
But slowly he started to talk to you and you two actually had the longest conversation you’ve ever had between the two of you
Ronin didn’t want to intrude or be a burden, so he picked up doing chores (your chores) around the apartment and house while also getting Nod to do your brothers chores
You told him it wasn’t necessary, they were your chores for a reason, but Ronin argued and said that this was thanks for letting the two of them stay
He’s already a big hit with your mom and dad, but they were at work and didn’t see much of him
You were washing dishes after everyone else left the house, either for school or work, when Ronin came in
He was wearing a white henley shirt with rolled up sleeves, something that SHOULDNT have looked that good on him, and immediately stopped to look at you from across the house
“Nope, uh uh,” he hip checked you out of the way and took the plate you were washing
“Hey!” You said
“Let me wash the dishes,” he didn’t even bother letting you argue, to him it was “his duty” to show appreciation by helping around the house
“Ronin,” you whined while trying to take the rag back from him, “c’mon, it’s literally my one chore.”
“You don’t have to do it, I got it,” he said
You huffed and groaned
“How about you wash them and I’ll dry and put them up?” You offer, hand on your hip
He looked at you and thought for a moment
The two of you worked in sync with each other in the small kitchen, you putting up the dishes as Ronin washed them
Occasionally, his hand would linger for a moment longer than usual while handing you the next dish, or you’d glance over to see him quickly looking away
Even when dressed so casually he looked so in charge and strong, it was so weird
It was weird in general to see him out of his armor but you digress
When the last dish was put up, you stretched and wiped down your slightly wet hands before turning to walk out
“Hey Y/n-“ you turned as Ronin reached out for you but hesitated
“Yeah, Ronin?” You raised a brow
He stopped and drew back his hand, brow furrowed in thought
“…thank you. For letting me and Nod stay here. Your family is…very kind.”
You snorted, “Yeah, well you havent seen ‘em on a bad day.”
Ronin chuckled a little at your joke and it made your cheeks turn pink
“But really,” he said, “I don’t know how else to thank you.”
“You don’t have to-“
“No, I do,” he added as you hopped to sit on the counter behind you. “I…I think we got off on the wrong foot, before.”
You blinked in surprise and looked away with a hint of shame, “Yeah, I—that day was a lot for me.”
He sighed, “It…was a lot for me too.”
You lowered your gaze, thinking about the woman who he had ran to as she died, the late queen, Tara
Ronin shook his head and snapped out of it, “Uh, well I-“ he stammered and rubbed the back of his neck, “I’m happy MK took us here. It’s been…nice, actually getting to know you.”
You told yourself you were imagining the blush on his face
“Really?” You smiled. “It’s been nice getting to know you too.”
Ronin smiled as you hopped down and opened up the fridge, taking out a gallon of iced sweet tea
“Come on!” You chirped as you passed him and grabbed two glasses, “It’s nice out.”
The two of you sat out in the backyard on the porch, chatting and drinking iced tea, laughing at stories, talking about anything and everything, enjoying the nice spring air late into the evening
When Nod eventually came back with MK after a trip around town, they found the two of you passed out on the porch swing, a thin blanket over the both of you
MK laughed but Ronin never looked so peaceful
Okay it took me a while to come up with this and it isnt immediately romantic but now Im like “…oh? Oh, ok, am I invested in this now???”
So if you like it I can DEFINITELY do more, it took everything in me to NOT just write an entire short fic for this one prompt, it ended up being so much cuter than I expected!!!!
Hope you like it! Its awesome having more people interact with the fandom!!

MK aka Mary Katherine
Some time ago I decided to rewrite the movie ''Epic'' from 2013.
I already explained why I decided to cut out the humans and everything related to them from the plot.
To give a quick recap, the movie was too cluttered. Two stories constantly battle for space, and in the end, none of them got any good development.
I decided to focus on a magical forest and the people living in it because it's just more interesting and I got a lot of ideas for it.
But I feel sorry for abandoning human characters, so I decided to dedicate this post to explaining why their part of the story didn't work and how to fix it.
Let's start with the main heroine's design. It's a great way to get a just of her personality. From the early concept art, it looks like MK went through a lot of changes in personality. From shy and closed off to more rebellious and emo-looking.
In the end, they settled on one of the most boring characters in fiction I've ever encountered.
She starts the movie off sad that her mom died. Being awkward around her father. Then she gets shrunk, the pod sticks to her, and gets dragged around from place to place by other characters so they can exposition the lore and their backstories to her (and to the audience). Together with her father, they save the forest and that rekindles their relationship, and she is somehow over her mother's death.
Let's not forget how MK actually gets wrapped into the war over the forest. And now we get to the second biggest problem with the movie, implications instead of an actual plot.
Mary Katherine apparently decided to run away almost immediately after getting to her father's home. I say ''apparently'' because she never even gets to run away or do anything else.
Her dad, Professor Bomba, gets distracted because his cameras are detecting Leafmans and Boggans fighting. He asked her if it was okay for him to go. She said yes. The next thing she does is write a note that she runs away.
I presume cause we never get to see what she actually wrote. Was she planning on staying with a friend? Would she rather be homeless than stay with her dad?
But Ozzi, the family pet pug, runs away first, so Mary goes to look for him. She finds dying Queen Tara, and her adventure begins.
During the adventure, the protagonist is supposed to undergo some development. But Mary Katherine doesn’t grow as a person at all. She does grow back to her normal size but not in character.
Nim Galuu asked her, if she wants to get back home so bad then why did she leave it in the first place. The movie even left a pause there, so MK and the audience can ponder this deep question.
But it has nothing to do with anything. As previously mentioned, she didn't even get to run away, she went into the forest which is practically her backyard looking for her dog.
The message of ‘’don’t run away from home kids’' loses its meaning when the protagonist's home is right next to her and she herself is almost an adult. Is she supposed to stay inside all the time because anytime lightning can strike her?
Nim also is impressed with MK's selflessness, because ''Who would endanger their own life to help someone else's kingdom?''
Unfortunately, MK doesn't help 100% willingly. She was shrunk by Tara, against her will, because she was the closest person. If later in the movie MK was presented with the opportunity to grow back but refused so she can help then it would make sense. But as it stands, she goes with what everybody tells her to do. She doesn't know anybody or anything. Her only option to be normal again is to stick around and hope for the answer along the way.
Also, that ''someone else's kingdom'' is the forest next to her home. If she doesn't help either all the greenery on Earth will die or the general area around her home will be a wasteland.
Nim Galuu is the worst character. Even worse than the snail and the slug. They're just comedic reliefs. He is supposed to be the old, wise, and all-knowing character who teaches and helps other characters. But all his lessons have nothing to do with the story. They're pretentious and in the context of the plot pretty dumb.
Back to Mary Katherine!
She is already nice and empathetic, going by her interaction with Tara. It's not like ''The Ant Bully'' where the main character learns to respect small creatures.
Well, besides Boggans. MK said she's going to come back to their home with a bug spray. She also created a Boggan plushie for Ozzi. So, when he finds any Boggans in the woods, he will most likely kill them. And it's all treated like a joke. But they're evil so it's fine. (Can you tell I don't like it?)
Besides those accidental psychopathic moments, she's boring and plane.
Her romance with Nod is boring. I used to be glad the movie doesn't do the ''we hate each other and bicker but then fall in love''. But now I wish they did. Nod gives her a ride on a caliber and then a ride on a deer. They have the '''hold me tight'' catchphrase. What can you expect when the whole story happens in just a day? At least their kiss is pretty romantic.
Professor Bomba is just your standard crazy scientist who isn't so crazy after all because he was right all along. What makes him more unique is that before he devoted his life to his research he actually got married and had a child. Again, we don't know why he and his wife split up but it's implied that his obsession become too much to handle or he was just neglectful, caring more about finding the little people.
Side note, him being right about the existence of the Leafman doesn't make it okay for him to abandon his wife and daughter.
Part of me wishes he was the one who got shrunk. He's the one that actually wants to meet them. Him interacting with everybody and asking about everything. Think Milo from the ''Atlantis: The Lost Empire''.
I’m from Poland and we have an adult cartoon named ‘‘Captain Bomba’‘. It's all I can think about it when I hear his surname.

Spooky Season
Disclaimer: I do not own either of the canon characters. Tadashi belongs to Disney and MK belongs to Twentieth Century Fox and Blue Sky Studios. Based on the drabble prompt “I hope you like scary movies!”
Word Count: 200
--------------
When Tadashi walks into their shared lab space with a large smile on his face, MK can’t help but smile back.
“What’s got you smiling so much this morning?” the redhead inquires, wiping some motor oil off her hands and onto a towel.
“You mean besides my adorable and intelligent girlfriend?” Tadashi remarks, kissing the crown of MK’s head before plopping his signature baseball cap over her fiery ponytail.
“Charmer,” Mary Katherine smirks at her boyfriend of seven months.
“I know you love it,” the oldest Hamada brother laughs.
“I love you,” she counters.
“I love you, too. Speaking of, it’s our first fall together as a couple, and I have lots of plans!”
“Is that what has you smiling so hard this morning?”
“Yes! In addition to the previous reason.”
“So, what’s on this fall agenda of yours?” MK questions, wrapping her arms around Tadashi’s neck.
“I hope you like scary movies!” he announces.
“Tadashi, no!”
“Mary Katherine, yes!”
“You know they creep me out!”
“Well, I’ll just have to protect you,” Tadashi assures, giving her a tight hug.
“That’s acceptable. Only if we can carve pumpkins and go on a hayride.”
“Naturally. What else is October for?”
--------
Author’s Note: This is my second Tadashi and MK story because I just love the thought of them as a crossover couple in a universe where they live close to one another and where Tadashi does not die in the fire. The two of them have become one of my favorite crossover couples, so I could not resist writing a double drabble for them for the March drabble challenge! This is my second year participating in this challenge, as my first was in March of 2019 when I first wrote for this pairing on my old FanFiction.net account which has since been abandoned. (Don’t worry, I will fully intend on cross-posting my works onto this new account and specifying which ones were written then.) If you would like to see more of this pairing, please let me know in a comment. As always, thank you all for your support, and have a wonderful day, afternoon, or night! Until next time!

MK Info
Full name: Mary Katherine Bomba
Species: Human
Age: 18
Sexuality: Demisexual
FC(s): ???
Bio: Mary Katherine, who prefers to be called "M.K.", is a tomboy who had problems communicating with her father due to of the fact that her mother, his wife, recently passed away, placing her under a lot of emotional stress. After their adventure in the forest, she became more open having found what he had discovered about the Leafmen was true -- M.K. developed her sense of adventure and bravery over the course of the adventure.
Note: Follows movie canon but also applies my own headcanons and diverges a bit.
[ MAIN || INBOX || HEADCANONS || VISAGE || MUSINGS ] -----------------------------------------------
V001: Family Reconnection
Default main verse. Takes place after the events of the movie.
V002: New Life
Alternate movie ending verse. I gotta write this in more detail later but it’s basically an AU in which she does not return in time and, hence, doesn’t get turn back to her normal size. So now MK has to adapt to the lifestyle of the Leafmen. -----------------------------------------------

MK breathes deep trying to keep the room from spinning so much, to keep he mind from fading and to stay in the now. She almost flinches at the slight pressure on her back ... but then it turns warm ... warmer then a normal hand would give off. It doesn’t spread but it give her a point to focus on.
“Well well Miss. Mary Katherine Bomba. I wish you wouldn’t visit us so much but since you’re here it’s nice to see you again.” A tall, cut, lean man with a tan and square jaw comes walking in. Dr. Alexander on his jacket that seems to fix him perfectly. In fact there is t anything thing on him that looks out of place in the least bit. One could almost see the sparkling light coming off his handsome body ... or at least that is what the nurses see. MK only sees a pair of judgmental eyes.
“Doctor.” She nods.
“Ah! She speaks this time. Sue! Bring a wheelchair over and get Mary into it. We need to do some scanning.” MK had winced each time her name is said fully and out loud. As the new nurse helps MK up the doctor leans in and whispers Salmao.
“Hey thanks man for bringing her in but really run while you have a chance. The scans are going to take a while and this chick isn’t worth it. Trust me I even bet she hit herself with her own rock to try and absorb its healing properties. We got her here man go on home.” The doctor says with a cheerful smile ... but there is bad intent behind his eyes as if he just wants to get him away and her alone.
thatsabigbug:
There was a lady at the counter old wrinkled and her hands a little shaky but she types not he keyboard like a werwind.
“Oh deary it’s good to see you again … oh … no I mean.” She gently laughs.
“I didn’t mean it that way I’m sorry sweety but at least you have a friend this time. Take good care of her young man this child is the sweetest girl around and she unfortunately ends up here more times then I would care to count.” MK smiles weakly a bit at the old woman she liked here … but even she couldn’t redeem this horribl place completely.
“Oh! And deary you’re a lucky one yet again! You’ll be seen by Doctors Alexander McIntire!” The old woman smile as if it were a good thing. She could hear the whispers now see the nurses whisper, look at her and diaperse with a chuckle, eye roll or a scowl. Damn it she wishes she has her rose quarts with her.
They all called her the wacky witch of the west. They all were amused or aggravated that she was here. One of the nurses explained to a new nurse in a whispers only keen ears could hear.
“Whenever she comes it’s because of her little experiments. She calls herself a healer but she uses poisonous plants and gems … as in rocks. She heals with rocks … it’s so I’m embarrassing to have her here. Even after seeing all the equipment and medicine and knowledge we have here she still thinks crystals are a way of healing.” The nurses quickly disperse with a shake of her head and the new one looks over at the man and the wacky witch.
MK could feel it. All the negative energy around her all the weight in her chest and mind always mad her pending illness or injury worse.
“Salmao I don’t feel good.” She leans over her knees trying to breath.
“I’m not really her friend, I just found her in the river,” he told the lady dryly. He listens around though. It’s hard not to with his hearing. He turns his head to the whispering nurses glowering it at them.
His attention is diverted to the girl again when she keels over like that. He knelt down and checked her face. “Let’s go see that doctor and get out of here.” He placed a hand on her back trying to send some healing energy to her. Years of neglecting that side of his powers made it weak and he could not be a proper healer but at least it could help her body not die too soon.

It's nice to see someone else who likes or even remembers Epic.
I think one of the biggest missed opportunities of the movie was the exploration of the relationships between fathers and sons. I wonder how Nod and Dagda would meet and interact with one another. They were basically raise to hate one another. But after they spend time together they learn how they aren't so different and just want to make their fathers proud.
You can make it platonic or romantic if you want.
Yesss there was such a missed opportunity for more emphasis on the whole child/dad relationship that was reflected throughout the movie! It’s one of my favorite parts and I felt like it was overlooked.
I feel like Dagda and Nod knew of each other, but like only in passing. Maybe they had fought each other, maybe the two had more run ins than normal, but I don’t think at first they’d know who each other actually was. It seems like the forest didn’t know that Dagda was Mandrake’s son, just that he was “the general”.
Neither knew each other’s name or really cared to know, they were just “another leafman” or “another boggan” in each other’s eyes.
However, they had enough run ins for Nod to have some serious scars on his chest from Dagda.
Now, this is just my own headcanon at this point since I don’t think they’d interact much outside of battle before the movie, but in an AU that Dagda actually survives, I feel like the one thing that actually gets Nod and Dagda to talk to each other is MK.
Dagda and MK would most likely start talking to each other first. Between her dad’s hyper-fixation on the leafmen and jinn, and Mandrake’s obsession to destroy the forest, there would have to be times where both of them felt pushed to the side at some points or disregarded.
After running into one of her cameras on accident, MK and Dagda kind of have a mocking sarcastic friendship with a lot of teasing. Then Dagda would be curious about her and humans and they just get closer from there. Kind of like neighbors who like to annoy each other while gossiping about the other neighbors. He lets her in on all the drama of the forest.
Dagda and Nod would’ve met through her, probably showing up at the same camera at the same time on accident.
Lots of shoving and mocking and making fun of each other but not being allowed to actually fight each other because of MK being there, but they are very petty with each other.
Usually its Nod being petty, Dagda just likes to push him around, the boy’s built like a quarterback and acts like a douchebag to people he doesn’t particularly want to be around.
But given time, the two, while not close like they are as individuals with MK, do start to tolerate each other.
They see it in each other through small glimpses.
Dagda will talk about how exhausted he is trying to keep up with troops, Nod will complain about Ronin always being on his ass even though he has done so much work, both of them vent to MK.
And recognize it in each other when they do interact. If one just seems not into the fight or its been a rough day for either of them, they will just ignore each other and go their separate ways. When their troop members ask why, they’ll say it’s not worth it and keep flying on.
When they end up at a camera at the same time, or are at different cameras at the same time, they are constantly making fun of each other. Part of it is legitimate annoyance, the other is just in jest. Dagda has made it a habit of scaring Nod off the platform if he sees him at a camera.
MK has to break them up because they will go at it, but if MK wants to hang out, they will tolerate each other in order to avoid having a mason jar cover them (MK’s version of a time out)
I wanted to throw in my own headcanons for how their dynamic would work in a world where Dagda lives because the boy deserved more screen time and MK’s own problems with her dad would be a really interesting topic of discussion between both her and Nod and her and Dagda.
I really hope you enjoy this, I’ve been trying to scratch my Epic itch for a while now lol XD

Can you maybe write a bunch of random headcannons or a x reader for Mandrake? Sorry I'm weird lol.
Indeed I can, anon!! And dont worry, you’re not weird
Hell yes, mandrake stuff!!!!
Mandrake General and Romantic Headcanons
General:
While it may seem like Mandrake has a short temper, that couldn’t be farther from the truth. He wouldn’t have gotten as far as he has being Lord of Wrathwood if he was quick to anger.
He does, however, find a lot of things annoying, and his solution to that is usually to get rid of the annoying thing (said thing usually being troops of leafmen, toads looking to make a quick buck, rowdy boggans, etc.,)
He is opportunistic by nature. If Mandrake sees a chance, for anything, he will take it. This is why he was suddenly more aggressive on the offensive when Queen Tara was to pick an heir to the throne. He saw a chance to completely throw off the scales in his favor and he took it.
If it wasn’t already clear, this man is a family man. He fucking LOVES his family, they don’t just mean the world to him, they ARE the entire world to him.
If Dagda said he didn’t want to keep fighting anymore, Mandrake would begrudgingly come up with a truce with the Leafmen, he cares that much.
Whether he wants to or not is another story, he quite enjoys being a menace and having others fear him.
Mandrake goes through shifts with his son, Dagda, when it comes to commanding the troops. That way they both are able to get proper rest, but it also means that they don’t spend as much time together as they could.
When there is a lull in Mandrake’s offensive nature, him and Dagda will go on patrols or hunting together to catch up. He always tries to make time for his son when need be.
However when he does have free time, Mandrake can be found riding with his grackle, Nightshade, either hunting or exploring certain areas he had never been before, or back at Wrathwood reading stolen scrolls or working on new weapons.
He is curious by nature. If he finds something that catches his interest, he wants to know every little thing about it. He’s particularly interested in human music, instruments and records are fascinating to him, especially if music is on a CD or something like a phone or radio.
He has broken in to Nim’s tree multiple times. He doesn’t just read out of necessity but out of actual interest. He probably has taught himself and his son how to read English so that they can break into Professor Bomba’s house and read some of his books. And just in general harass him, they find it funny to steal his things and watch him fume over himself trying to figure out where they went.
Unlike the leafmen, they made it a point to mess with the human as much as possible. It became a game to see who could steal the most stuff without him noticing. Dagda currently has a streak.
While he doesn’t as much anymore, Mandrake loves to just in general mess with others. It is his form of entertainment.
Mandrake and Ronin have a serious score to settle between the two yet no one really knows why. Ronin won’t talk about it, especially after Tara’s death, and Mandrake will only allude to it in passing. The only people who know why is Ronin’s second in command, Finn, Nim Galuu, the late Queen Tara, and one of Mandrake’s closest confidantes, a boggan named Weevil.
Mandrake is a lot stronger than others give him credit for. That scene where he brought down a huge oak tree single handedly from meters away? Yeah, that’s not just a one-off feat of strength. That’s barely a taste.
For all his cruelties and reputation as a feared warlord, this man has a soft side and the common person will see it when he is around kids.
He loves children. He can’t resist being soft for a child and is really gentle with infants. If he could, he’d have a whole litter of them, he loved being a father and adores just being around kids.
He makes it a point to never harm a child directly, and he makes sure that the rest of his army knows the consequences if they do so.
Romantic:
I mentioned that Mandrake is very family orientated. This also applies to his partner. If you aren’t just a fling and you and him are together, this man is the definition of devoted husband.
When I say devoted, I mean D E V O T E D. Just say the word and he will be leveling the entire forest for you. Please say the word. Just give him the excuse to do it. Don’t ever joke about it because he will take any chance he can to burn the forest to the ground with glee.
In a relationship with him, there is noone above the other. The two of you are equals, both in public, in private, and in power among the hoard. Your word means just as much if not more than Mandrake’s, only because Mandrake has a pension for punishing those who disobey his partner. The boggans hope you’re the more agreeable of the two, because if you say “No you cannot kill another boggan just because they forgot to go on patrol like I told them to,” then everyone can breathe a sigh of relief.
That being said, your relationship is built on trust and honesty, so there is a LOT of leeway for teasing. So much of it. If it wasn’t for your relationship, it would seem mean, but he never means any of it and neither do you.
If anything either of you do or say crosses a line, there is no shame in telling the other so, boundaries and limits are always respected, and “no” will usually never need to be repeated.
The only exception will come to affairs with the leafmen. You will have to be very firm if you ever disagree with him in those matters. It might irritate him, but he isn’t mad for long. Even if you do argue. He firmly believes in not going to bed angry and he will be open to talking to you about whatever the issue at hand is.
He loves to make you flustered. Especially if he has to work hard for it, it makes the sight of you blushing even more satisfying.
Challenge him. Physically, intellectually, emotionally, playfully, he does not like anything easy and he doesn’t find complete submission interesting. It actually makes him uncomfortable. If there is a set power dynamic between you two, be a brat. It’s more fun for the both of you.
There is one hard line that Mandrake doesn’t break: You have to get along with his son. If you and Dagda don’t get along, sorry, he’s not interested.
Though, it’s very hard not to get along with Dagda, he’s generally fun to be around and you’d most likely be best friends with him if you hadn’t gotten with Mandrake when Dagda was a child.
Expect a lot of roughhousing. Whether it’s you and Mandrake, Mandrake and Dagda, whatever, this man is like a cat and will pounce on you without warning for an impromptu wrestling sesh. Sometimes its playful, other times it’s like trying to run away from a dog who is set on trying to tackle you.
While Mandrake is busy, very busy, usually, when he has down time he is always with you. He hates being away from you for long and gets extremely clingy. Depending on how much time away you spend from him, he might not let you out of his sight and will follow you around.
He will make excuses, though. Saying he has nothing better to do or that he has free-time. That’s a lie, he is purposefully skirting his usual responsibilities just so he can refill his “you time” meter.
He lives off of domestic moments, but he can pull out the romantic in him. Solo flights with you at night, finding a clearing and just lying down in the grass to watch the stars, bringing you trinkets and gifts that he had found on patrol, wait the gifts—THE GIFTS!
He is ALWAYS trying to bring you stuff. It could be stomper jewelry he found, something he stole from the Jinn, weapons, furs, fresh kills, cool bones or rocks, he is like a crow and he wants to show you all the near little things he found. Hang them up on the walls or shelves of your chambers or wear them and he will puff up in pride.
If you show in an interest in something, he is going out of his way to try and find every little thing that fits that interest. He can have a one track mind so you might have to keep him on a leash and tell him he cant just break into a stomper’s house and steal their stuff.
There are no secrets between you two. If there were, they aren’t kept for long. Mandrake doesn’t like gossip, but he makes an exception for you. The two of you will gossip like teenage girls but then never say a word to anyone else.
If you couldn’t fight before, that’s fixed within the week. Sparring is his version of a date night so you pick up very quickly how to at the very least fend off your partner. And if you can hold your own against Mandrake, you don’t really need to worry about anyone else.
But lord forbid if anyone hurts you. There isn’t anything, leafmen and nature be damned, that will get in his way once he finds out who dared to lay a hand on you in malice. He will make an example of them, and it will give him a lot of pride if you are happy to watch.
By himself, Mandrake is the most feared being in the forests of Moonhaven. By yourself, you might as well have the power to take over not only Moonhaven but the rest of the surrounding forests if you so pleased. But by each other’s side?
Ronin needs to be careful. Upsetting you just gives Mandrake the “go ahead” to raise living hell upon the forest.
You occasionally will turn around and see Mandrake gazing at you with the softest and warmest look in his eyes. You mean everything to him, you are his family, his world, and he would do anything for you if you allowed it.
Call him a sap, he won’t deny it.
