#carmilla carmine is a good mum

[mentha-vacciniumrainbow]

Little Clara and Odette both had nightmares so they got to Carmilla and Zestial’s room and they sleep in the bed with their parents. 💚🖤

I like that. I like that indeed. Here you go!

《Little ones. What art thou doing awake so late?》 asked Zestial, rising to a sitting position.

Clara and Odette's attempt to climb on the bed had woken him. They were too small to succeed on their own, and he used his shadows to aide them, welcoming both girls in his arms to soothe them

《Did something happen? 》

《There's an angel at our window! 》 Cried Odette, grabbing the shirt of his pyjamas

Clara nodded alongside her

《We are scared! 》

《An angel? Art thou sure thou hast not dreamed? 》 Asked Zestial. It had been a recurring nightmare for both girls since the last extermination, and he was pretty sure that this time was no exception as well -the windows in the girls' rooms were sealed and covered at night, and not visible from their beds, for added security- but he still borrowed his spiders'eyes to inspect the perimeter, to be extra certain... Nothing amiss was found, and he relaxed a bit

《I saw it. It was horrible, all golden and withe, and it wanted to take us away! 》 insisted the blonde child, hiding her face against his body

《I didn't see it. But if Odette is scared, I'm scared too 》 agreed Clara, getting closer to him as well

He hugged both toddlers a bit tighter against his chest, his big hands completely covering their backs

《Doth not fear, nobody shall harm thee. Thou art safe here 》

《Have you checked with the spiders? 》 asked Clara, that found his lack of alarm reassuring

《Indeed. No angels in sight, mine precious. Would thou like some milk before going back to bed? 》

Odette shook her head, a few tears still coming down her eyes

《No, I don't want to go back, I'm still scared! 》

《I can sleep in your room, I'll protect you! 》 offered Clara, hugging her sister, but she was still a bit shaken herself

《No, I want mum. Can we wake her? 》 pleaded the child

Zestial turned to look at Carmilla that, laying next to him, seemed still immersed in a peaceful slumber. Her day had been so long, and the next one wouldn't be any lighter... The girls were still unsettled, but not too much, he could handle this on his own.

《Thine mother needs rest, little lambkin, I shall stay up with thee instead, is that alright? 》

《I want to at least sleep next to mum 》

《I want to sleep here too 》

Zestial smiled, kissing each of them on the top of their heads before moving them under the covers and tucking them in. Such compromise was a welcome one

《Alright little eanlings. Stay here and get cozy, I shall go to get thee both some milk 》

《And if the angel comes for real? 》

《Angels may not enter houses. And even if it does, I shall deal with it! Thou stay here, and doth not wake thine mother. 》

《Alright. But don't stay away for long! 》

《I shall come back in a matter of minutes, I promise》

When he returned with a tray and their favourite plushies, Zestial was not surprised to find both children asleep in their mother’s embrace.

He got back in his spot slowly, as to not disturb them, but as he went to kiss them on their foreheads, a little suspect found its way in his brain, making him almost chuckle as he caressed Carmilla’s hair

《Thou art awake, art thou not, mine dearest?》

Carmilla just smiled as he kissed her as well. Seeing the man she loves dote on their her daughters, was always the sweetest of dreams.

This is so cute I can't-

[hells-wasabii]

Hi could you pretty please do velvette x reader who is Carmilla youngest daughter and how her family reacts (plus zestial pls I ship him and Carmilla so I feel like he's a step dad)❤️

A/N: I blacked out and wrote this.... but yeeees LISTEN!! I love Velvette so much, its not even funny and i had a lot of fun with this prompt! I didn't realize how much i wrote for it until it was too late, and by that point, i really couldn't stop. but I hope you enjoy reading it as much as i enjoyed writing it! ps i honestly ship them too

Part 1 | Part 2

Character: Velvette

Type: Headcanons + Drabble (Velvette x reader who's Carmilla's youngest daughter, General with a bit of Angst and Fluff sprinkled in)

For Velvette, she actually entered into the relationship not really knowing who your parents were. You never brought it up and she never really asked. It didn't really matter to her, since, ya know, you're the one she's dating, not your mum and dad, or step-dad from what you've mentioned.

Honestly, she should've seen the similarities. They were there for sure, but let's face it, there are so many demons in hell that it was probably just a coincidence, right?

Carmilla also knew you were seeing someone as well, though she really figured that you would bring this special demon around when you were ready.

Oh, they were both wrong. So very wrong.

They found out simultaneously, of course, as cliche as it was. You were on an evening out with Velvette with no clear destination in mind, just simply enjoying the evening and each other's company when the next thing you knew you were face to face with your mother.

It... didn't go too well.

What had once been a peaceful evening nearly dissolved into a turf war all in an instant. If you hadn't been able to separate the two with a promise to talk to both separately later there was no doubt that everything in a three-block radius would be collateral.

Zestial and your sisters would find out soon thereafter, Carmilla of course telling them when they see her come home looking quite distraught.

As stated before, to Velvette, it really didn't matter. though it did sweeten the deal. It would give her plenty more opportunities for her to provoke the arms dealer, something that she already took a great deal of pleasure in.

Zestial would be skeptical of the relationship at the start but eventually comes to accept it fully. His patience won out this time. He's seen more than enough relationships like this go up in flames and he'd never want that for you. He considered you a daughter after all.

As for your sisters, both of them were simply happy that you were happy. They were more worried about how y'alls mom would react. And you can't tell me that they didn't already know, either.

Carmilla on the other hand... To her, family is everything. I mean, she killed an angel for you and your sisters. She'd do anything for her kids, and that includes keeping someone like that upstart from breaking your heart. She wholeheartedly believed that Velvette was only dating you to get one over on her. It really comes as no surprise when she goes all the way to Vee Tower to confront the youngest overlord herself.

"You need to stay away from my daughter."

The fashionista bit out a curse as a needle pricked her finger. Velvette doesn't usually startle easily, but shit, between her being completely focused on finishing and the fact that her workshop had previously been silent save for any sounds that she had been making herself, she thought that even the most stone-cold bitch would've jumped.

What good was the security for if those nitwits couldn't keep unauthorized demons out of her workshop? The influencer swore that if any blood got on the material for this dress she'd personally kill the guards and whoever-

Oh.

Of all the people she expected to see, Carmilla Carmine, the uptight weapons dealer, and apparent mum of her girlfriend, was not one of them. Or actually, scratch that. She was completely expecting this to happen sooner or later.

"Well, it sucks to suck then, wrinkles, I'm not going nowhere." The fashionista bit back, a smirk settling on her lips that quickly fell when the older woman tried to push her point.

"I know what you're trying to do and it-"

"Obviously you don't." All mischief gone from her tone, Velvette set her work to the side, careful not to crumple the fabric. She rose to her feet and began to cross the room to Carmilla, who in turn stood taller, determined not to let this miscreant make a mockery of her, her family, and most importantly her youngest daughter. "I hate to break it to you, but the only way I'll break it off is if SHE wants to."

Velvette paused, her eyes boring into Carmilla's with a conviction and passion that the arms dealer hadn't felt from the influencer before. When the younger woman spoke again, her voice was softer than before, laced with a sincerity that would leave the mother speechless.

"I love her."

Its this singular interaction that leads to a truce between the two (technically five if you include Zestial and the Vee's) Overlords. They would come to some sort of mutual understanding that if both of them were to be in your life, they'd have to play nice. At least in front of you. At Overlord meetings, well, that's a whole different story.

ALASTOR RADIO SHOW

So this has been sitting in my brain for a really long time. I've made about a 50 minute video on what Alastor's Radio Show might sound like. Because I am who I am I've also put some references to Vesper in there, because of course I did. The full video is will be up on YouTube https://youtu.be/zWNpshsogiQ?si=0Ct8ygRoAYF1-f4u , but it’s quite long so here is some of my favourite clips and also the ones pertaining to Vesper's story!

INTRO:

SUBTITLES: Ah, good evening, my devilish comrades! It's been an eternity since I last graced the airwaves! What with those celestial attacks and constructing a spiffy new studio, I've been positively swamped. So, do pardon my absence from our nightly rendezvous. But fear not, for I've returned with a vengeance, ready to regale you with tales that'll send shivers down your spine! But before we delve into the depths of the night, let's ponder a question that's been buzzing in the back of our minds: Is VoxTek Angelic Security as impenetrable as it claims? Or are we merely being hoodwinked by the corporate demons? Fear not, my friends, for we shall uncover the truth. But first, let's kick off this evening with a toe-tapping tune, "Let the Good Times Roll" by the incomparable Louis Jordan. So, let's not waste a moment more, shall we? Or as they say: Laissez le bon temps rouler!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

YOU SAID YOU WANTED TO BE ON THE SHOW? TW: Screaming, Crying, Someone is in PAIN BEWARE! (Also, I can't tell if its cringe or not)

SUBTITLES: The song slowly comes to an end, when the mic goes hot again you can hear someones panicked breathing along with Alastor humming. There is the sound of a knife hitting the table and then a scream. ALASTOR: Quiet now dear - You’re ON AIR. Can you be quiet for me now? VICTIM: mhm... ALASTOR: Yes? VICTIM: Yes. ALASTOR: Good. While I finish up with our distinguished guest here, let me deliver you a delightful ditty, that is just the perfect amount of ironic considering our current company. Here is "Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out" by the sensational Bessie Smith. The breathing gets more intense until they scream, but their scream is cut short as the mic goes cold again.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AIRWAVE ALERTS w ALASTOR!

SUBTITLES: Wasn't that just the most delectable interruption. Well as promised: Here is Airwave Alerts with Alastor. There seems to be a string of murders in the Mafia and Weapons District of Pentagram city! You heard me right, murders! It seems that the perpetrator is using angelic bullets to take out their targets. And although I would like to stake a claim on these murders, I cannot take credit for another's work. While the culprit remains a mystery, where they seemed to have acquired the weaponry is not. Unusually Carmilla Carmine has seen fit to stay silent on the topic. One would hope that she would be able to make a public statement soon.  Ah, while you mull over that jaw-dropper, let me serenade your senses with a tune that'll have you tappin' your toes and hittin' the road in style! It's none other than "Route 66" by the legendary Nat King Cole. So sit back, relax, and let the smooth sounds of this classic take you on a ride down that ol' highway of dreams!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE ABOUT CHARLIE:

SUBTITLES: Ah, listen up, denizens of the infernal realm! It's time for a little update from the Princess of Hell itself. Seems our friend Charlie Morningstar has taken matters into her own hands, bless her devilish heart. She's put forth a petition for those brave souls willing to stand tall in the face of the next extermination - should it come to that, of course. Now, I hate to rain on anyone's parade, but our heavenly counterparts up above have been keeping mum on the matter. And let me tell you, my dear fiends, that's not exactly music to our ears! But fear not, for there's a glimmer of hope yet! If you're ready to lay down your very essence to defend our infernal home from these angelic invaders, then you best hotfoot it over to the Notice Board smack dab in the centre of cannibal town. Sign your name with pride, for in unity lies our strength! (slightly less enthusiastic) Or something along those lines. With that obligatory bit of unpleasantness addressed, my dear listeners, it's time to lighten the mood and spread some cheer! This next tune is dedicated to none other than our beloved Charlie Morningstar, the beacon of hope in this dark and dreary place. So kick back, relax, and let the melodies of "You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile" by Charles Strouse and Martin Charnin wash over you. Remember, my dear souls, even in the depths of Hell, a smile can work wonders!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GOSSIP ABOUT VESPER:

SUBTITLES: Well, well, well, my curious listeners, have I got a spicy tidbit for you! It seems our resident pop sensation, the one and only Vanessa LaBlanc better known by her stage name Vesper, has been spotted gallivanting around town in the company of none other than Asmodeus, the King of Lust himself! Now, isn’t that a twist? It's been a hot minute since the Cardinal Sin of Lust graced the Pride Ring with his presence. So, what devilish plans could he be concocting with our delightful Vanessa? Ah, my dear sinners, the plot thickens! But fear not, for yours truly will be keeping a close eye on this tantalizing tale. So stay tuned, my friends, for the juiciest gossip this side of Hell. Up next the weather! But before we delve into the forecast, let's soar among the stars with the timeless crooner himself, Frank Sinatra! It's time to let the velvety voice of Ol' Blue Eyes serenade us with "Fly Me to the Moon." So close your eyes, let the music carry you away, and dream of celestial delights as we prepare for the weather—though, as I suspect, the forecast may indeed call for a storm of scandal!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you made it this far - if no one has told you today, you're amazing!

[kiingleoturtles]

What's this about a Hazbin x FMA au 👀 - Kat

Ohmigosh, my new friend, hi @kattythingz!

Okay, the Hazbin x FMA AU is pretty much just me taking FMA characters and plonking them in the Hazbin Hotel timeline as the various characters for my own amusement.

@kaethefangirl helped me scheme a few of the different character roles but I'll put the extensive cast list below (in no particular order), those who currently haven't been assigned a character have a ? next to them instead (and ABSOLUTELY if you have suggestions then I will take a good look at those)

EDIT: I HAVE FILLED OUT ROLES FUCK YEAH

Charlie - Elicia Hughes

Vaggie - Nina Tucker

Alastor - Envy

Angel Dust - Ling Yao

Husk - Greed

Sir Pentious - Edward Elric

Cherri Bomb - Winry Rockbell

Egg Bois - The idea I currently have for them is it's actually just loads of Alphonse's helmets running around

Zestial - Miles

Carmilla Carmine - Olivier Mira Armstrong

Vox - Lan Fan

Velvette - Pride

Valentino - Solf J. Kimblee

Lucifer - Maes Hughes

Adam - Roy Mustang

Lute - Riza Hawkeye

Sera - Dante (yes, from 03, I'm snatching her)

Emily - Alphonse Elric

Niffty - Bido

Mimzy - Gluttony

Rosie - Lust

Razzle and Dazzle - Den and Black Hayate

Keekee - Alexander

Fat Nuggets - Xiao Mei (I'm so sorry if I spelt that wrong I am gonna check it at some point)

Lilith - I feel really bad casting Gracia Hughes here but she IS Elicia's mum and I can't think of anyone else

Katie Killjoy - Rebecca Catalina (pretty sure that was her name)

Tom Trench - Jean Havoc

Anyway, when I do end up writing it, it'll take place over eight chapters as the eight episodes, each titled accordingly.

There will probably be basic cosmetic changes - e.g. colour changes on Ling as a spider boy so he's mainly black with yellow accents instead of white with pink accents, and that Greed (instead of being a cat) is probably just going to look like his ultimate shield form.

Anyway, I hope you've enjoyed the explanation!

[mentha-vacciniumrainbow]

Someone needs to go tell Zestial that he now is the father of three 😌

Carmilla:Nice work.

Vaggie:Thanks mom.

Vaggie....why is everyone staring at me?

Husk:You just called Carmine mom. You said "thanks mom."

Vaggie:What? No I didn't I said thanks girl.

Carmilla:Do you see me as a mother figure Vaggie?

Vaggie:No! If anything I see you as a bother figure because your always bothering me!

Sir pentious:Hey, sssshow your mother sssome respect!

Vaggie:I didn't call her mom.

Carmilla:No no no. Vaggie, I take it as a compliment.

Sir pentious:It's not a big deal. I called Cherri mommy once and she's my fiancé.

Vaggie:Guys jump on that! Pentious has mommy issues.

Angel Dust:Old news, but you calling Carmine mommy...

Vaggie:Hey mommy is not on the table here!

Alastor:But you did call her mom my dear.

Vaggie:Stay out of this. You've done nothing but lie sinse you got here.

Alastor:Alright I was lying about owning my own soul. But the mom thing? That happened.

Vaggie:Aha! I got him to confess to being on a leash. All part of my brilliant plan.

Carmila:I belive you.

Vaggie:Thank you.

Carmilla:Mi hija.

[autistic-sylvester]

Introduction to my oc, Sylvester!

He's a hazbin hotel oc

(the art of him was made by my friend jasmine so thank you to them so much as I love their art and he looks fantastic)

Sylvester is a winged demon, entirely based on a harpy eagle as he, as a human, we're terrified of them.

His bio family aren't good people, his bio mum was neglectful of him and his bio dad was abusive. His mother hated him because he is autistic and didn't want to raise a child like that and ended up leaving his bio dad. That's the reason he started hurting him.

He is a hellborn demon and was around 5-6 when the carmines found him.

They found him while his bio dad was going through shit and when the carmines found him, he was hiding in a building while his dad stepped out and just gave him up to them without questions and walked off.

The carmines took him home and while carmilla hadn't expected another child, she couldn't sit back and let them take him back so, she let him stay and very quickly got attached to him, as he once he gets attached to someone, he likes to follow them around, to make sure they won't leave him and had separation anxiety when he was younger.

Clara is the sister who he goes to when he wants to have loads of fun and cause chaos and helps get his energy out and helps him when he's under stimulated and helps him with stimming and making him feel better about his autism.

He loves hanging around odette, she's a calmer figure but also can be somewhat chaotic, she love showing off her weapon designs and showing sylvester around her lab and showing him things that usually Clara has no interest in. He likes going to her when he's overstimulated because she sets up a lil corner for him to sit in with a weighted blanket and his noise cancelling headphones and does her work and when he seems to of calmed down abit and seems abit better, she comes over and talks with him about the weapons and stuff going on around and talks about stuff that have happened at the overloads meeting.

He loves being around carmilla. Usushe brings him to her office, going through paper work, and let's him stay with her for a while until he was old enough to either be home alone until the girls get home or until he was old enough to do deliverys with Clara and odette. He loves being in her office and just seeing all that goes on. She sometimes just sets him in her lap and he watches what she does and sometimes she gives him some paper and pencils, one time he drew him with them and had a "my family" above it and it nearly brought her to tears cuase he so quickly got into the family.

They help him get his wing strength back and he was flying very quickly again and very often would end up hanging from the ceiling and while they know he can fly, his landings when he was younger wasn't the best and often flew into walls and into people.

Once he was old enough he started training with his sisters and was taught how to fight with his wings being an advantage to him, he usually uses spears, swords or daggers as he finds them easier then most other weapons with his wings.

[mentha-vacciniumrainbow]

Never, never wake a sleeping child. Especially if they are twins with an already exhausted mother... or a very powerful family "friend" ready to give you hell for making them cry.

Just a silly doodle, yet I hope you will like it!

[mentha-vacciniumrainbow]

"Carmilla with Clara and Odette- and Zestial standing by her side, watching over them". Inspired by this statue "Latona and her children Apollo and Diana".

[mentha-vacciniumrainbow]

The fanart is perfect, and the fanfiction is hilarious and sweet at the same time!

(Pssst, hey- truth or dare)

[mentha-vacciniumrainbow]

Carmilla with baby Clara and Odette.

The last feeding before bedtime can be tiring, but Zestial will surely offer to bring her some herbal tea... did I manage the night atmosphere?

[mentha-vacciniumrainbow]

Zestmilla tickle fights with the girls?

Nice idea, can do! (Hope you enjoy, is a silly little thing 💜)

《Clara, no 》 warned Carmilla, but it was all useless, as her daughter got ready to pounce on her

《Clara yes! 》 The kid screamed, jumping from the top of the wardrobe and onto her mother, her little hands busy tickling her 《I got you! Mum is my prisoner now! 》

《Stop it! I'm serious! 》 scolded Carmilla between laughters, carefull to move herself so that both her and her daughter would hit a soft surface when they would inevitably fall 《No TV the whole weekend! No spicy chips! No... No skateboarding! 》

《Worth it! 》 giggled the child, well aware that none of those threats would be followed by action. Her mum liked to act as she didn't enjoy their surprise attacks, but truth was, she could always see them coming from a mile away and never did anything to stop them from happening

《Stop! 》 She ordered again, as they fell on the bed and her dearest friend entered the room, alerted by the noise but not particularly panicked

《Zestial, a little help, please! 》 She pleaded, but Zestial, her oldest friend, the almost father of her daughters, her lighthouse in the storm, simply watched her with a knowing smirk, as he made his way towards them

《Thou doth not seem to particularly mind, mine dear 》 he noted, simply standing as her hyperactive child had the time of her life tickling her and undoing her neat updo.

So, apparently that was how he wanted to play, this time

《Traitor 》

《At least thou art getting cuddles 》 he comforted, and Clara stopped her assault to look at him dead in the eyes, a fanged smile brightening her round little face even more

《Don't worry jefe*, we won't make you feel left out》

《We? 》 asked Zestial, starting to look around the room, but it was already too late

《SURPRISE ATTACK 》

《Odette! 》

The child threw herself from the chandelier, successfully managing to knock Zestial to the ground and climb on him to deliver her own ticklish assault

《I'm speed, I'm stealth, I'm grace, I'M THE INVISIBLE TICKLER! 》

《I see thee perfectly, little lambkin 》 he laughed, still a bit out of breath, as he tried to rise, but his daughter was of a different opinion, and climbed on his chest as she pulled a long feather out of her sleeve

《Not for long! Feather attack! 》

《No! Not the feather, my only weakness 》 he played along 《show some mercy, I beg thee! 》

《No! Clara, I need help, dad is too tall to tickle alone! 》

《Reinforces are coming! 》

Assured the other, climbing off of her mother and joining her twin in her endeavour.

As his two beloved little menaces went wild on him and his poor clothes, Zestial noticed his dearest swiftly recomposing herself and preparing to slither out of the room

《Carmilla, mine dear... 》

He tried in his meekest voice, but this time it was her turn to smirk as she watched from above

《Na-ah. You were ready to leave me to my destiny, I'm leaving you to yours. Good luck, dear friend! 》

With a satisfied smile, she made her escape and closed the door behind her.

"Oh well, I deserved it." He thought "Yet, I shall nonetheless have my own ticklish revenge on mine loveliest lady... after our little ones are settled for the night, without a doubt."

*"Jefe" is the Spanish word for "boss", but is also affectionately/respectfully used for one's parents. I have a whole headcanon around it -used in my main fanfiction "You bring back my Springtime"-, but long story short, it's Clara's way of indirectly recognising Zestial as her dad, where Odette is more explicit.

[mentha-vacciniumrainbow]

Carmilla and Zestial cuddling with baby Clara and Odette... at times, family isn't about blood ❤🖤💜

I used my headcanons from my fanfiction "You bring back my Springtime", where Zestial has bat ears and the ability to attach/detach his wings from his body in three different ways. I hope you will enjoy!

(For those curious: yes, Zestial is wearing socks. He has cold feet.)

[mentha-vacciniumrainbow]

Pretty interesting, aren't they?

Here it comes the second part of ✨Zestmilla headcanons✨

Clara and Odette often play video games. Carmilla tries to play with them but ends up VERY frustrated because she always loses. In fact, sometimes she has even turned off the game. When Zestial joined the family, Carmilla saw an opportunity to win (the poor man had never seen a Play Station in his life) and he still won. Carmilla banned everyone from playing for a month.

Carmilla graduated in industrial design when she was alive, but she kept studying in hell. She studied business administration and in her free time she keeps dancing.

Zestial studied medicine. His parents practically forced him to maintain his family's status, but he really liked it. (Over time he began to murder people with a high-risk profile to analyze their anatomy and study their diseases) He also has extensive knowledge about poisons, and is immune to most of them.

Zestial always tries to behave like a perfect gentleman towards Carmilla, he is courteous, polite and extremely respectful. Even so, he is VERY affectionate, and would spend the day with his hands on her (not necessarily in a sexual way) and he has to refrain himself from doing so.

Zestial is not as old as people think. He actually died around the age of 50 (at his time that age was already considered to be very old). Carmilla died at 45 aprox.

They both LOVE their height difference. Carmilla finds it so sexy, she is tall but he is a fvcking skyscraper. We all know that Zestial thinks so highly about Carmilla, but secretly he also thinks she’s cute af.

Btw if you have any question or request for headcanons feel free to ask me! ;)

[mentha-vacciniumrainbow]

Oh oh I have an idea! How about Zestial goes to Carmilla's room in the middle of the night because he heard the girls crying and finds her trying to get baby Clara and Odette back to sleep (and she looks beyond exhausted).

《Zestial. Sorry if we woke you. 》

The man, having been spotted, entered the room and took his place next to his friend's bed. Carmilla, with exhausted eyes, was trying to settle both Clara and Odette

《I was already awake mine dear, doth not trouble thyself 》 he assured, looking at her with a sympathetic smile 《Art the little eanlings being fussy? 》

She sighted

《They're just very tired, so tired they can't fall asleep. It was my fault, I was late for their bedtime 》

It pained him, seeing her being such an hard judge of herself. Parenthood was hard, and she had so much going on, that cutting herself some slacks would have been healthier than continously striving for perfection

《Thou art being too harsh on thyself, dearest. I know for a fact that the delay couldn't have been avoided... being a rising Overlord and a mother is a complex endeavour indeed 》

《We agree, my friend. 》 she conceded, offering him a tired smile of her own 《Can I do something for you? I will always find time if it's you the one who asks 》

《Most certainly 》 he beamed, tending his hands 《Thou could hand me the babies, allow me to aide thee, and then give me the pleasure of seeing thee go enjoy a well deserved night of rest 》

《I don’t want to impose... 》

She shook her head, but he would have none of it, and delicately took the little ones from their mother, settling beside her on the bed

《Thou art not. In fact, I'm the one pleading. 》 he assured, before turning to his lovely cargo and cooing 《Come here little darlings... you're so precious, most certainly you're... as precious as thine wonderful mother 》

《I'm a mess 》 she scoffed, trying to fix her hair a bit

《Nay. Thou art caos, and only a fool wouldn't see the beauty in it. 》

《Thank you, Zestial... you're my dearest friend. 》

She leaned on him, and his heart fluttered as he kissed the top of her head

《And thou’re mine, mine loveliest Carmilla. Until the universe exists, nothing shall make us part 》

As long as they had each other, nothing would be insurmountable.

[mentha-vacciniumrainbow]

This is my latesr Zestmilla fanfiction! Enjoy!
