#hae malleus

[kiame-sama]

ooh malleus baby names here's 2 named after his mom: malleano (very italian sounding) for a boy and malleanora for a girl

malestrite, mallestrife, mallemora, mallemorro, maleforo, malefira, maledia

is this enough? or is he having more kids?

This genuinely makes me want to write a NSFW 'what if' mind experiment of HAE!Malleus in a Rut (literally making Lilia chain him down in his room to stop him from just going wild and pillaging for the Human to have during his rut) and the Human gives themselves to him because he is trying so hard to not force himself onto them (and shows he respects the hell out of their right to space), this results in Malleus going absolutely nuts in the breeding department and winding up having the largest clutch of Dragon eggs in history. Maleficent and Malefica are THRILLED with such a large clutch.

[haeoflii]

The girls are gossiping! i wonder what they're talking about?

(click for better quality!)

A silly dialogue I made below:

Cece, whispering into Malleus' ear: Can you believe it!? He said he was busy with a "school project" but in reality he's actually cheating on him with another guy! And that guy turns out to be his boyfriend's best friend!!

Malleus, leaning down even though he can hear her perfectly fine: The nerves of that man.

???, whispering: pssh what are you kids talking about?

Cece: !!!

Lilia pops out of nowhere, which frightened Cece.

Malleus: Hm eavesdropping on us, Lilia?

Lilia: What makes you think that? I've just so happened to walk by when you two were gossiping loudly in the open.

Cece: loudly...!?

Lilia: And while on school grounds too? I thought I raised you better than this!

Cece: Hey! who said we're gossiping? I am merely sharing information based on my personal experience with my dear ol' buddy. And even IF we were gossip–WHICH WE WERE NOT! Gossiping isn't all bad...

Malleus: Child of man said that gossiping can help us bond, increase cooperation, and encourage good behavior and self-reflection.

Lilia: Ah, is that so?

Cece nods her head: Mhm, that's right!!

Lilia: Khee hee perhaps Sebek was right. You really are a bad influence on him, prefect~

Cece: HAAHH!?

[lumdays]

😭😭😭😭😭 OLD‼️

(sorryyyyy siyun is Unfortunately a wip Still)

chat is this real!!!

relationship charts + fun facts utc!! (sorry it's a lot of yapping)

- siyun and malleus met the same way novel!yuu (yuuya) and malleus met except siyun didn't take too kindly to him using magic on them. they had beef for a while and it settled into Respect, Sorta

(translation by @/yuurei20)

- siyun is the janitor (refused nrc studentship from crowley) so they've met a few of the students before their ingame appearances (jamil, ruggie and. jade)

- almost killed grim the first time they met

- leona often just grabs their ankle when they're passing by his spot in the botanical garden. he either makes them fall or uses them as a pillow, depending on his mood and the clothes they're wearing (if it's their regular nrc uniform then it's eep time, if it's the janitor uniform he's making them fall on their ass)

- it's not that vil isn't ambitious, it's just that siyun isn't all that interesting of an investment in the first place. so when his first few attemps didn't work, he gave up on them. they're not enough of an eyesore for him to fix anyway (also their reception to his ministrations were pretty hostile, epel bias)

- the first time epel and siyun ever met, they stood up to vil for him and all he felt was. Shame. wow, the magicless janitor is stronger, braver than him. he's. so. thankful (it's ok they magishift it out🔥🔥🔥)

- the light magic thing is uhhhh Lore Stuff, siyun has a strange connection to blot and that same connection makes them recoil at light magic (not the users themselves. Usually)

- THE ROOK AND SIYUN (onesided)BEEF!!!!! rook spreading l'amour et la beauté and forcefeeding them cheese (someone said rook is like aoyama's cousin and that's wonderful to me) meanwhile siyun is devising a hundred and seven evil plans to take him down. he chases them down as much as he does beastmen and siyun has taken to returning the energy by throwing increasingly sharp objects in his general direction (they miss by a mile cause their aim sucks ASSSSSS also their eyesight is shit but they have Bigger Problems rn)

more seriously though, rook's compliments and flattery may Mostly be in good faith but he makes siyun feel. Less Than Human (more so than they already aren't)

- if you couldn't tell, i have a huge freshmen/yun found family bias and they are Everything to me. they all think siyun's crush on jade is absolutely nuts (ortho is maybe a Little less unconvinced but he joins in with the others cause it's fun! yun gets it).

after a while, they start getting mad at other students who litter or trash the school cause it means more work for their fuckass janitor🔥🔥🔥(personally i think jack + maybe deuce are already the kind of people to pick up after other people's trash when they see it LIKE NOT ALL THE TIME, THEY’RE NOT SAINTS BUT. yea. meanwhile sebek is ABSOLUTELY the typa guy to YELL at people who litter)

- jamil and siyun were pretty good friends before shit went down in book 4, at least in siyun's perspective. it's not obvious on the chart but it actually took them a shit ton of time to actually make up and be friends again (for real this time!)

- the nrc staff and siyun all agree that crowley is public enemy number 1 (some more playfully than others read, siyun hae) but yea they all got SOMETHING against him. in siyun's case, he used a similar kind of magic as malleus first thing when they got out of the coffin and it got them tweaking really bad because they're kindaaaaaaa allergic to magic (should’ve mentioned this earlier but i forgor

taglist (tell me if you wanna be added or removed🔥🔥):

[seawater-aurelia-writing]

I really loved the second part of the Break and I can’t wait for part three. I also can’t help but wonder, what would have happened if Lilia didn’t find m/c after she ran away from the campus ground. Like, what would happened if another fae found her first having a panic attack. Out of pity or to gain something they “helped” her disappear. I can only imagine the chaos NRC would be in if m/c went missing.

Thank you so much, Anon! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

Oh that would have been an interesting take on it! Another Fae, possibly in Diasomnia but not at all kind like the ones we know, 'helped' MC to fulfil her wish of just going away and escaping it all - not knowing the hell they just unleashed on all of NRC when certain people realize MC is gone. May the Seven hae mercy on that student because I know Malleus won't~ (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

This section in the story is honestly where it almost branched off. I had so many routes I wanted to go with, like MC being found by someone not even from NRC for instance (～￣▽￣)～

[espopstar]

does malleus hae a forked tongue

Hold on

No it does not seem like he does.

[kiame-sama]

If Malleus and his hoard are part his grandmother and Great Grandmother’s hoards. How Malleus and his hoard be able to go to NRS?Malleus and his hoard sometimes return to Briar Valley with short visit? Have has Malefica and Maleficent visit Sage island to relieve their stress? Because if not, looks like both dragon lady will be two sad dragons noodles lying on the floor

Usually during holidays and over the summer the Hoard and Malleus return to Briar Valley. Sometimes if either Malefica or Maleficent are in a particularly bad mood, summons will be sent in the form of a letter delivered by Baur or another trusted Fae for Malleus and his Hoard to return to help calm the elder female Dragons. Due to the overlap in Hoards, sometimes there needs to be a big cuddle session of Dragons and Hoards to keep the yandere tendencies of the Dragons quelled. Occasionally Maleficent or Malefica will come to Sage island to cuddle Malleus and his Hoard should they find themselves in a poor mood.

Sometimes they just have to be sad Dragon noodles and wait for the Hoard to arrive or wait to go to Sage island. Typically they don't stay sad noodles for long as they will become angry and will take matters into their own claws if they are upset enough. For the wellbeing of Briar Valley, it's best if Malleus just brings his Hoard to them for snuggles.

[kiame-sama]

Does hae Malleus sun himself? Like if hae Human is chilling on the beach would he also enjoy the warmth and nap or would him being night fae just make bright sun unpleasant for him?

Malleus finds bright light to be rather unpleasant. He is a nocturnal night Fae and has more of an affinity for the darkness and shadows. He will tolerate light for his precious Human, but he is not having a good time.

[kiame-sama]

How big are Malleus's grandma and great grandma in dragon form compared to him?

Malleus is barely considered half grown. At around 1000 years is when he is considered full-grown and a 'complete adult' by Dragon standards. His mother died before she was half grown. Maleficent and Malefica are about four times the size of Malleus in their Draconic forms. He is very much smaller than them due to his age.

Malefica is a bit smaller than Maleficent due to Maleficent being the oldest. Dragons don't stop growing at around 1000, but their growth is significantly slowed compared to those first 1000 years, hence why they consider themselves fully grown at 1000 despite the fact that they still get bigger.

Something to keep in mind is Maleficent is the strongest of the dragons and she is around the same strength as Papa Hades. Malefica is weaker than Malleus despite having a few 1000 years on him. Malleus is about 346 in my AU, so he isn't even half fully grown compared to other dragons. Malleus is a young and extremely powerful Dragon just learning about his own life expectancy and abilities, yet he is already in the top 5 most powerful mages worldwide. Imagine what he will be like when he is considered fully grown.

[kiame-sama]

Malleus transforms into a dragon to give the human and Grim a grooming session, holding them in his paws. He licks them like a giant cat

(He's so eager to leave his scent behind and get rid of the strangers)

He has to make sure his mate and their shared kit have his scent. He would do the same with the hatchlings he has with the Human in the future and will ensure his scent stays on them at all times. It is a little unnerving to be gently groomed by the very large Dragon given his size in comparison to the Human and Grim while he is in his Draconic form.

[kiame-sama]

What if I latched onto Malleus and cuddled into him like a baby koala?

You will never have to walk again because he will insist on carrying you.

[kiame-sama]

So would Malleus let the rest of the hord breed with reader? Or just him?

And if he let them breed would it only the once or multiple times?

Warnings: multiple yandere, poly yandere relationship, x reader, adult themes, by selecting 'view more' you consent to view content and are of age to view content

So long as the Human desires to be with the other Hoard members, Malleus would allow his Hoard to be intimate and breed with the Human as many times as the Human wants. Naturally, everyone in his Hoard WANTS to be with the Human but they all understand Malleus is technically the primary mate of the Human and they won't push to make the Human accept them as well. He is content sharing so long as the Human is content to be shared.

[kiame-sama]

How would the HAE boys react to finding out the reader is pregnant with their child(ren)? (I’m unsure if you’ve answered a similar request but either way, I love your writing!!!)

This is only one half of the yanderes, Including the Hoard (Sebek, Silver, Lilia, Malleus), Poisonous Beauty (Vil and Rook), Octo-Trio (Azul, Jade, Floyd), and Idia. I will do part two with the other NCR characters

Warnings: as the request states, Yandere, yandere behavior, yandere relationship, pregnancy warning, afab reader (though I will keep pronouns they/them), large mention of poly relationships with the fellas (many mention poly relationships and some require a poly relationship to be in any relationship [ie. The Hoard and Malleus]), by selecting 'view more' you consent to view content and are of age to view content, some have oviposition based on the species, mainly ficlets, any appearances made by Grim or Ortho are solely platonic, some graceful responses, some not so graceful responses, all positive responses, mostly fluff minus some teasing and confusion, not all take place at the same time, various 'relationship routes', mostly poly relationships, various poly group dynamics*

*Special note; In The Hoard, Lilia and Silver are NOT romantically interested, they are father and son and hold firmly to that.

*Special note; In the Octo-Trio, Jade and Floyd are NOT romantically interested, they are twins and have always shared things.

The Hoard:

Malleus Draconia (300+)

"You... what?"

Malleus stood in complete disbelief and surprise, waiting for it to be some kind of joke made in poor taste, but the serious expression of his beloved Human never once left their face. It took only a few moments longer for him to realize his beloved Human (Y/n) was- in fact- not joking. A momentary pause gave way to genuine jubilation and joy as the air seemed to noticeably warm.

The Dragon was quick to fall to his knees and press both clawed hands eagerly to his beloved mate's stomach, as if he were trying to see the egg- hopefully eggs, plural- forming in their soft womb. Though he couldn't see them yet, he was more than elated to know that inside of his mate was the formation of his young. He would make sure that his hatchlings had what he never got the privilege of having- both parents. He never got to meet his father or mother, but he would be damned if the same ever had the chance to befall his own children.

"Are you... happy?"

"Of course I am! I am thrilled we will bring the next generation of Draconias into our humble home. Lilia is an expert in raising Dragon hatchlings- he raised me after all- so I am certain the others in the Hoard will be so thrilled to hear you are with child. Our child."

Malleus continued to hum and purr, nuzzling his nose ever so gently against the soft stomach of his beloved. How many times he has wished and hoped for such an event to come to pass. He knew there were many things to prepare for; forming the proper foundation of a Hoard for his new young, preparing the 'Cradle' to imbue the egg with his magic, just getting the egg here in the first place, deciding names, announcing it to Briar Valley, all of it. He had to make sure it was all perfect for his perfect family.

"Come, let us share our wonderful news with the rest of the Hoard, I'm sure young Grim is going to be thrilled to be an older brother."

~~~~

Lilia Vanrouge (800+)

"Repeat that for me?"

"I'm... Pregnant?"

"One more time."

"Lilia."

Lilia chuckled at the gentle scolding tone that his wonderful Human grumbled out in, their frustrated frown making him acquiesce. He had asked at least five times for it to be repeated because he just loved the sound of those words coming from someone he adored ever so much. Naturally, he was elated and looked forward to any young running around the gloomy castle of Briar Valley.

"Do you know which of us is the father yet? I'm certain Malleus will be thrilled to hear the royal clutch of eggs will have siblings."

"Yeah, the palace doctor told me based on the wings growing, they have to be yours!"

This actually made the old Bat Fae visibly pause, turning to look with wide and almost hesitantly excited eyes. Surely the sweet Human was joking right?

"They...?"

"They're... yours? Are you okay Lilia? You're not... you're not angry, are you?"

Lilia realized how his surprise must have been perceived as he was quick to immediately try and soothe the somewhat stressed and worried Human he adored. Of course he was happy, he just wasn't honestly expecting to get young of his own so soon. He figured Silver or Sebek would be next.

"No! I could never be angry, not about this! This is wonderful news! It may be a bit confusing for Silver, but he is smart and I know he will adore them as their older brother. How could he not? I'm sure Malleus himself will be more than taken with our little pup!"

Lilia was clearly happy and seemed to be bouncing as he stood behind he beloved Human, wrapping his wings around their body, all while holding their soft stomach in his hands. He had long decided to adore any child borne into the Hoard, but he knew he would be especially gentle with this one. How could he not? They were his, after all.

"Let's go tell Malleus the Hoard will have more than the Royal Clutch to take care of."

~~~~

Sebek Zigvolt (19)

"Your Majesty!"

Sebek cried as he rushed forward, keen to help despite the fact the soft Human in his arms had merely stumbled on the edge of the large rugs lain across the floor. As a retainer for both Malleus and the Human, Sebek was always keenly alert for any sign of discomfort or potential threats. Naturally, even things that weren't genuine threats were treated as such, even as Sebek growled angrily at the rug.

"Vile thing! Tripping up my Majesty (Y/n), you will burn for this!"

"Sebek."

"Yes, your Majesty?"

"I've told you that you can call me by my name, you're one of my mates, you don't have to call me 'Majesty' all the time."

"But I must! As one of your loyal guards, it is my sworn oath-"

The loud half-Fae was hushed gently by a finger over his lips, immediately swallowing down his words and paying apt attention. Of course the half-Fae was loyal, he came from a long line of guards and his non-Fae half happened to be a guard-dog species in the literal sense. He was genetically wired to be a good guard and a loyal companion.

"I just returned from a visit to the palace physician, he has confirmed I am pregnant again."

"This is wonderful news! We should-"

"Not done yet."

"My apologies."

"Sebek, when they checked, they found several heartbeats and confirmed that the embryos growing are canine in appearance with long tails. Meaning you are the father of this current litter."

It took a moment for Sebek to fully understand what was being said to him, his eyes widening and his ears sitting up at attention. His tail began a slow wag that quickly evolved into a whipping force, as he slammed his tail back and forth with barely contained excitement despite the stress inside of him.

"I'm- I'm going to be a father?"

"Yes."

"Truly?"

"Yes, you adorable crocodile-dog."

"I... I NEED TO TELL EVERYONE!!"

~~~~

Silver (24)

"Are you too cold, (Y/n)?"

"Silver, I'm fine. I promise if there was anything bothering me, I would tell you."

"I simply don't wish for you to be uncomfortable..."

"I know, and I appreciate that."

The Reindeer happily trotted through the almost jagged gardens of the Briar Valley Palace, his adored Human resting on a specially made saddle strapped to his secondary back. As the official steed, it was Silver's job to ensure that he checked in regularly with the soft Human on his back, especially after the recent announcement that they had become pregnant once more. He would be damned before anything bad happened to the Human he adored whole-heartedly.

"Silver, since we have some peace in the gardens, I wanted to talk with you about something."

"Of course. Whatever you need, I am here to listen and aid."

"At my most recent check-up to see how the pregnancy is coming along, and they made an interesting discovery. I was a bit dubious at first, but after more examination, the Palace physician discovered this one has hooves."

"... Hooves?"

"Yes."

Silver didn't really seem to understand what he was being told and vaguely thought it odd that his beloved Human emphasized the presence of hooves in regard to their newly forming young. It took several long beats of silence before the Human tried again to gently lead Silver to the right conclusion.

"Out of Malleus, Lilia, Sebek, and you, it would only make sense that the hooves were inherited from the one that is the likely father."

"That would make sense."

He wasn't getting it. A more direct approach was clearly needed.

"That means you, Silver."

This got the Reindeer to pause in place, his head cocking from one side to the other before he turned, auroral colored eyes wide in surprise.

"... Me?"

"Yes, you."

"I'm.... I'm gonna be a Papa?"

"Yes."

"Does Father know?"

"Not yet. You're the first I've told."

There was a clear excitement in the typically tired Reindeer's eyes as he hoped slightly, turning and almost dashing to the doors that lead deeper into the palace. Naturally, the increased pace meant the soft Human had to reflexively hold onto the horn of the saddle to not lose their balance.

"Silver??"

"We have to tell Father! And Malleus! And Sebek! They'll all be as thrilled as I am!"

Shinigami Woes

Idia Shroud (88)

"Oh, fuck. Like, irl?"

"The hell's that supposed to mean?"

"No! I didn't mean it like that! I just-! I mean-! I'm a sweaty, gross, gamer nerd. I honestly didn't think you would want to stick around with me or have-"

A sudden excited voice broke through what was meant to be a private conversation between Human and Shinigami, as the previously eavesdropping Ortho burst into the room. He was so excited his leg locked up beneath him, making him stumble into the kind hug of (Y/n). Of course the child Shinigami was listening, he adored both his older brother and the Human as siblings and wanted the two of them to be together since day one.

"That means you're going to have a new baby! I won't be the baby of the family anymore!"

"Ortho," (Y/n) gently scolded the excitable young Shinigami, unable to stop the smile tugging at their lips, "You know better than to eavesdrop when you weren't part of the initial conversation."

"I'm sorry, but I'm just so excited! I'll have a new friend in three years!"

This made a soft sigh escape the Human, as it was quite vexingly true; Shinigami pregnancies- even half Shinigami- took three years of gestation. Of course, no one was excited to be pregnant for that long, but such was the nature of Shinigami young.

"Yes, and you'll be an uncle. so I hope you'll teach your new family member everything you can so they are as kind and smart as you."

Ortho whooped at this, leaping up excitedly and turning on his jets to fly from the room, his voice fading away as he clearly shouted the news to everyone within earshot. This left Idia to face off with his loving and adoring Human mate who was a little less than pleased with his initial reaction.

"Why is he more excited about this than you are?"

"Ghk! I didn't mean-! What I was trying to say is-!"

The Shinigami sighed and then gave a genuine smile, one of happiness twinged with a bit of stress, but a true smile none the less.

"I am thrilled we will have a tiny ankle-biter together. I can show them all the ways technology can be used and Ortho will finally have someone closer in age to play with. But, it is a long pregnancy, and I would wage a guess it won't be easy. But fuck it, I'll grind out some parenting levels and see what Papa Hades thinks is best. We're going to have the most skilled and smart gamer-kid to ever exist with all the best stats!"

Poisonous Beauty

Vil Schoenheit (25)

"Yes, (Y/n), my Dear, what is it?"

The ever popular and busy Harpy actor glanced over his shoulder from the script he was reading, a warm smile pulling at this lovely face as he saw his beloved Human standing in the doorway. His door was always open to his two mates, (Y/n) and Rook no matter what he was doing or how busy he was. Even if he was actively hashing out contracts and deal signings, he would always have time to speak to his lovers.

"Vil, I have some news, not sure if you'll find it exciting or not, but I think Rook will be over the moon."

"Oh? And what is this 'exciting' news?"

"Since I've been having such an upset stomach recently, I decided I should go see a doctor just to make sure everything is alright with me. He said my white blood-cell count is high and the eggs are doing just fine in their now calcifying shells."

"That is wonderful news, I-" Vil paused for a moment, his neatly groomed brows furrowing ever so slightly, "eggs?"

"Yes, actually. Four healthy eggs."

"... and they have calcium heavy shells?"

"Yes. I was worried I wouldn't be able to tell if they were yours or Rook's given you both are egg bearing species, but-"

Vil couldn't wait to pull his sweet and adoring Human into his embrace, burying his face in their shoulder as he spun them around. Naturally, the ever observant hunter was keenly aware of the sounds of mirth and cooing made by his two life-partners and came to investigate what the commotion was all about.

"Roi du Poison, mon Trickster, why the sudden excitement? Has something wonderful happened?"

"Rook! (Y/n) is-! We are going to have-!"

(Y/n) gave a gentle chuckle at how much Vil struggled to get the words out, smiling adoringly at the Harpy who was cooing and fluttering his wings, his tail feathers shaking in excitement. It was clear the Harpy was besides himself with joy as his tail feathers and crest rose up into a full display, very loud cheerful calls escaping the throat of the Harpy.

"Dieu merci! What has happened to put our lovely Roi du Poison in such a radiant mood?"

"My visit to the doctors today revealed something wonderful, Rook. I am indeed healthy- despite my recent bouts of illness in the morning- and the four eggs I am carrying are healthy as well!"

"Merveilleux! My beautiful mates! We will make excellent parents!"

Rook Hunt (19)

~~~~

"Rook?"

"Yes, mon amour?"

"Is now a good time to chat?"

"Of course!"

Rook turned around from the deer he had brought home after his most recent Hunt, his smile wide despite the red that tinted his hands a dark color. He was quick to set his skinning tools to the side and wipe off his hands on a nearby rag. Often, the Drider would be unable to resist putting his hands on one of his beloved mates, so he would have to make sure his hands were clean before that happened.

"What do you need, mon Trickster?"

"Well, you know how Vil and I ran errands today?"

"Oui. Roi du Poison wanted to scope out that new skin-care line that launched and you were going to have a quick health check with the doctors. I trust they were polite to you?"

"Of course they were. You and I both know the fit Vil would throw if they weren't."

"Roi du Poison does have such a way with words."

Rook chuckled in a good-natured and equally good-humored way as he curled his legs slightly, kneeling down to smile at his beloved Human. It was a habit he picked up after seeing how far his dearest had to crane their neck back to look at him, given his height advantage.

"Well, the doctor said all the numbers were well within expected range and that the eggs are thriving."

"... Do my ears deceive me? Eggs? Could it be true?"

"It is true! I wondered if they were your eggs or Vil's, seeing as we are in such harmony most times, but based on size, number, and lack of calcium in the shells, they are more than likely Drider eggs!"

Rook was quick to sweep his beloved human off of their feet, cuddling them and holding them tightly against his chest as he peppered their face in soft kisses. Of course Rook was elated, he would be even if they were Vil's brood and not his own. There was little more the could think of that would make him any happier in that moment than to hold is beautiful mate close. Well, perhaps he would be happier if the beautiful Vil were present as well to share in the information, but now doubt the Harpy had taken a step back to allow Rook his space to celebrate.

"This is the best news you could have possibly given me! Were I skilled enough to entangle the stars in my silk that I could snatch them from the sky as payment for the joy you always bring into my life! Now we will have more joys to cherish! No doubt Roi du Poison is already ensuring everything is being set up appropriately for this next step we take on our journey as mates! Allons-y!"

"Go? Go where?"

"To rejoice with our beautiful mate Vil of course!"

Octo-Trio

Azul Ashengrotto (20)

"Come in."

The successful and business savvy entrepreneur didn't even glance up at the knock on his office door, writing up yet another contract for someone seeking to create a join business venture in the empire that was Azul Ashengrotto's Lounge. He had long moved past the Monstro Lounge of his school-days and had become quite the tycoon in the food industry as The Human themselves had bolstered his culinary reach and now their combined efforts had taken Twisted Wonderland by storm.

"You got a minute, Azul?"

The Octopus looked up quickly at the familiar voice of his lover and business partner (Y/n), watching them approach with keen interest as he set his pen down and moved his papers to the side. It didn't matter how much was promised or of what, his beloved (Y/n) came first and was ranked above every past/current/potential client.

"I always have time for you, Angelfish."

"Still refuse to call me 'Shrimpy' like Jade and Floyd?"

"I don't know why they insist on calling you such a name as 'Shrimpy' as if to imply you are a bottom-feeder!"

"I think it has more to do with the symbiotic relationship of Cleaner Shrimp and Moray Eels instead of bottom-feeders, but I digress. I do hope you have divvied up our shares adequately these past few years."

"Yes..." Azul seemed tense and uncertain now, worried that perhaps his beloved Human planned to divorce him and the twins based on the question, "I have. Mostly equal for you and I, Jade and Floyd get a little bit less, but still fair. ... Are you unhappy?"

"What?"

"Because I can fix it! I promise! Just give me a few days and-"

"Azul!"

He fell silent, swallowing back tears as he tried and failed to keep himself from spiraling. Why else would his beloved ask about shares being split if they did not intend to split from him? He had to fix it, but his own tears were making it impossible to speak.

"I'm asking because we need to split them up further and I am happy to give more of my share so you don't have to redo the book-keeping."

"Why would we need to split them further? There is Me, You, Jade, and Floyd. The only reason we would need to split any of our earnings is if another mate entered the fold or-"

Azul's mind finally caught up to him and he was struck dumb. Surely not? The several doctors he kept on retainer would have let him know if there were any difference in your hormone levels. Right?

"Congratulations, Azul, we're going to really have to split up the shares if all of them make it to term and hatch. Hope you can handle having everything split that many ways."

Azul couldn't speak after the emotional rollercoaster he had been on in such a short period of time. He didn't need to though. His tentacles- which he could usually keep on a short leash- suddenly rushed forward, wrapping around his beloved Human and pulling them to him as he kissed their face and any exposed skin excitedly. They gave a sweet laugh under the affectionate barrage of kissing, holding his face affectionately even as the many tentacles gripped at their soft flesh.

"You..! I thought you-!"

"Scared you, didn't I? I figured that's why Floyd and Jade wanted me to ask you that way, since the clutch is entirely Octopus eggs and they're both mad they didn't get the chance given how 'eager' you were to keep going."

"I should have known..! Here I was terrified you were going to make me into Takoyaki for Floyd."

"Eh, it's still on the table~"

"(Y/N)-!"

~~~~

Floyd and Jade Leech (20 & 20)

"Ne, Jade, when is Shrimpy coming home?"

Floyd whined a long complaint, dragging out each syllable as he complained to his patient twin. Jade was busy looking over recent numbers in Azul's absence while he ran errands with their shared mate (Y/n). It was sure to be a long day and everyone knew Floyd would get bored quickly after the first few stops, but he would be bored alone. Still, even with Jade mostly entertaining Floyd's whining, the Eel Merman was bored.

"They are on their way back now, Azul told me a few minutes ago."

"Well why didn't you say so sooner, Jade?"

"It didn't seem like you were in the mood to listen when you ripped that pillow to shreds."

"Whatever. If Little Shrimpy is on their way back, things are gonna get interesting again. Always is! I'm gonna give them a good squeeze for going out and leaving us behind!"

"You chose to stay-"

"Don't care!"

The door to the room swung open and in came Azul, taking the coat off of the shoulders of their shared mate with great care. He glanced up quickly, glad to see Floyd and Jade were waiting by the door. At least then he wouldn't have to go find them.

"The both of you, we have news to share."

"That can wait for me to get a squeeze of my Shrimpy-"

"No, it cannot, Floyd."

"You're no fun, Azul."

The Octopus man was annoyed with the eel but Jade was eagerly awaiting whatever news it was that they had to share. Clearly it was something important if they simply could not wait to settle and let Floyd go about his usual routine.

"If you squeeze them too hard, you'll harm the eggs, Floyd."

"Egg- oh my, has our sweet (Y/n) taken to a clutch? Congratulations."

(Y/n) chuckled at this while Azul pouted and a certain surprise overtook the Eel.

"You don't mean to say..?"

"Yeah, I'm not sure how many are Floyd's, and how many are your eggs but the doctors said they looked fine and seem to be growing properly."

Jade couldn't even respond as Floyd quickly lifted their precious Human, spinning them around while also being careful to not squeeze too hard. Both eels were elated with the idea of having their own fry and Floyd was eager to see these cute combination young. Jade was curious how it would show the combination of genetics between himself and the Human.

"We're gonna have a bunch of Shrimp Eels!"

Floyd laughed as Jade smiled good-humoredly. He looked forward to sharing his ever increasing culinary expertise with the soft Human that he was fortunate enough to share with his twin and comrade.

"Careful, Floyd, you can see for yourself when they hatch. It certainly seems our lovely family is growing."

Do you think any of the monster guys would be good at helping an autistic human with overstimulation (like too much of a certain noise, or lights that particularly bother them etc.)

Ooh, and how do you think Malleus would respond if he used materials in the nest that the human can't really handle touching because of the texture? Would he get particularly upset because of the human rejecting the nest? Would he let the human help choose materials for the nest? (I can imagine him holding different pillows and fabrics out for the human to test the texture before he adds it to the nest)

Warnings; yandere, yandere behavior, yandere actions, autistic reader (mostly based around my own autism), monster men trying very had to be good to their Human,

There are several who would be good to pair with an autistic reader thanks to their own dispositions and behaviors. Lilia has raised a literal dragon from hatching and has managed to not get himself killed by that dragon. He would absolutely be wonderful in keeping an autistic Human calm and knowing when they are getting overstimulated. He also knows how to keep an overstimulated creature calm enough to get them somewhere calmer and quieter to relax themselves. He isn't even bothered by being yelled at by the overstimulated creature because he has had literal fire spewed at him by an overstimulated Dragon in the past, so yelling does nothing to perturb him. Papa Hades recognizes that not all Humans function the same and has had his own autistic Humans to care for in the past. He knows the general signs of overstimulation and texture avoidant behaviors. He would be fantastic at keeping the Human calm or getting them somewhere safe to help them calm down and decompress from others. Vil himself has been overstimulated many times due to being on loud movie sets and productions, the flashing lights and excess sound easily overwhelming him. He can recognize increased stress behavior in someone and knows when the environment is far too loud for most- specially the more sensitive- to handle without having a meltdown. He is far more patient with an overstimulated Human than many others would be and would be wonderful at taking them away from that environment. Malleus is fantastic at general interaction with someone who is autistic and would be content to take them away from an environment that is far too stimulating for them. He- especially in the case of an autistic Human- is already extremely attuned to the general behavior and mannerisms of the Human he protects. He will pick up very quickly on their discomfort and would be equally quick to take them out of the upsetting surroundings to help them calm themselves down. He will also be the best to hyperfixate with and share interest with because of his own niche special interest in Gargoyles.

Malleus would be crushed if the Human didn't like his nest and would completely tear the nest apart to make anew the moment he learned it was because of his fabric choices. He will sit for an entire day with the Human to rebuild the nest, having them check and touch the fabrics to make sure they would like the texture. Any textured fabric the Human doesn't like is immediately burned and he makes mental note of the feel so he doesn't add a similar fabric in the future. He will only move forward with the actual nest building when he confirms all the materials being used are Human approved. This does mean he will sit and hold out every fabric for the Human to feel first before adding it to his nest. If he runs out of fabrics and materials for the nest, he is taking the Human shopping- both so they can choose and so he can guard them- to find more materials for the nest that they enjoy. The nest is large enough to hold him and his hoard, he will need a lot of materials to make it the way he likes and to make sure the Human likes it as well.

May I give Malleus a singular, shiny pebble I found? My autistic self tells me I must give items of usually insignificant worth to the people I care for and enjoy being around. (Pretty dragon boy,, love,,)

He would love it and cherish it, happy to be given any kind of gift (no matter how inexpensive or small) and he will add it to his personal item Hoard where only things he treasures are allowed to be. Basically, his item Hoard is similar to his living Hoard in that he hoards things he likes/enjoys/values. Gargoyles are in his item hoard, as are jewels and gemstones, precious metals, fabrics he is fond of, his mother's magestone, his father's magestone, A little friendship bracelet little calf Silver made for him, drawings he made as a child for Lilia, most of his baby-fangs, most of Silver and Sebek's baby teeth, gargoyle-like objects, and anything his Human deigns to gift him. He is exceedingly territorial about his item hoard and living hoard.

Morbid curiosity… if you would chop off one of Epels (or any tree nymphs) limbs would it just be wood? Would he bleed blood or like some kind of sap? Can he regrow limbs like a snapped tree branch? Does he splinter?

Also same thing with Malleus, do you think dragons could drop and regrow their tail if needed?

Epel can regrow his limbs if they are severed. The limbs are mostly wood with sap deep inside the limb. If his limb is severed, it will take time but he can regrow it identical to the last with a slight discoloration due to the removal of the prior limb, like a knot in a tree. His wood flesh can splinter if he doesn't take care of it (stretching, watering, pruning) but he is unlikely to give others splinters if they touch him.

Dragons lost the ability to drop their tails, as it was primarily a prey response they grew out of (because what the hell preys on a Dragon these days) but he can regrow limbs if they are removed, including his wings.

Azul can regrow tentacles and will occasionally lose tentacles or drop them if sufficiently frightened. Erikír has taken a few of Azul's tentacles in the past by bullying Azul and taking his tentacles when Azul isn't sufficiently amusing in his fear responses.

How would malleus and the hoard feel seeing the human being carried away by crewel?

Silver and Sebek are terrified of Crewel out of his seal form. Sebek is afraid of the seal form, Silver finds more comfort in the seal but respects him by keeping his distance. Both will be upset and will want to help but are too hesitant to actually help given the Selkie is not overly friendly towards anyone interrupting time with his pup.

Lilia is keeping Malleus calm, convincing the Dragon the Selkie is simply behaving as a parent to the Human and thus should not be met with ire. Malleus is fuming and smoke is rolling out of his mouth. He is only somewhat listening to Lilia but most of his anger is at the fact that he wants himself and his Hoard to be the only support the Human has. He can learn to tolerate Crewel as his Human's caretaker, but he isn't happy about it.
