Stricklake Month Week One: Myth
“Mum! Why would you tell her the truth!?” Walter muttered, “I had her convinced there were no baby pictures of me. I was SAFE!”
“Walt! Really!” Barbara laughed, “It’s not that bad. You were adorable!”
Morgana rolled her eyes and adjusted her hold on her daughter, “Of course there were paintings of you, Walter. You were the heir of Avalon. Arthur had many paintings done of you when we first brought you home.”
AN: I run on the assumption that the painting in the middle is of Morgana and a Baby Walt. Considering their association with the Arthurian Legend, I figured this would make a nice addition to Stricklake Week!

Stricklake month week 4: Blood/Healing (TW)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
{In a world plunged into eternal night by the forces of darkness, Barbara Lake fights to survive alongside Walter Strickler, a changeling who once passed as human. After a brutal encounter with monstrous Gumm-Gumms leaves Barbara gravely injured.}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
{Walter desperately tries to save her, revealing his deep love for her. Tormented by guilt over his role in her son Jim's death, Walter is determined to protect Barbara, despite the secrets he keeps. Her trust in him gives him the strength to continue, even as the darkness of their world closes in.}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Summary:
In all the chaos after the defeat of Gunmar and Morgana, Barbara and Walter haven't actually done a whole lot of talking about their feelings. Barbara still isn't sure she's ready for that, but surely they can talk about SOMETHING. Written for Stricklake Month 2024 Week one - Technology

Week three of Stricklake month: Sunlight
Barbara and Walter meet across a leyline when young, a place where powerful magic crosses over time and space, and quickly become unlikely friends... And more.
When Barbara moves away with her husband James and son Jim, Walter thinks that's the last he will see of them.
400 years later and a chance encounter sees them reunited.
#trollhunters#tales of arcadia#walter strickler#jim lake jr#stricklake#Barbara Lake#Keenswimmers2024#This is actually not angst at all#Don't worry I'll be fixing that in my last prompt somewhat#Walt and Barb with more banter than usual lol

This Love is All We Need— week 2 of Stricklake month: Shipwrecked
Barbara and Strickler are enjoying a calm holiday on Walt's private Yacht when the worsy happens and a storm overtakes them, ending with them shipwrecking on a deserted island.
With the rain having left Barbara in a dangerous position, it's up to Walter to get Barbara to cover and warm her up.
Good thing he's not human.
#trollhunters#tales of arcadia#walter strickler#Barbara lake#Jim and Claire are mentioned briefly#Keenswimmers2024#Stricklake#Short one this time but still angst#Less then the first one though!

Week one of Stricklake month: Technology
Barbara Lake and her son Jim can see ghosts. And with her husband brutally murdered she thought she'd at the very least see his spirit. Only, years after his death, Barbara learns Walt isn't any ghost.
He's like nothing she's seen before.
#A rather spooky and horror based first prompt for Stricklake month 2024#Warning for graphic body horror in the first part#And featuring ghost! Walt#trollhunters#tales of arcadia#Walter Strickler#Barbara Lake#Stricklake#Keenswimmers2024#Fanfic#Stricklake month 2024#Hope everyone enjoys!

Week four of Stricklake month: Blood
Barbara POV: Barbara Lake is used to seeing Vampires in Arcadia what with the peace treaty in place with them.
But her whole life is turned upside down when her boyfriend Walter turns up at the hospital with Jim, covered in blood.
Because it turns out Walter is a Vampire. And not a normal one either...
#Yes its a vampire AU#And yes I was very late again 😭#Roundup post to follow!#Walter Strickler#Barbara Lake#Jim Lake Jr#He's unconscious but still technically there.#Don't worry he'll be fine#Stricklake#Keenswimmers2024#Trollhunters
