Flowers in the wind

Halsin x Drow Reader

Summary - sitting in a field filled with flowers and how you meet the poeple that you have made friends within months especially a druid

Masterlist

Words - 1091

A/n - no more writers block and its grate is all I have to say :) don't know if I should make more parts to this but I'll see.

⚠️Blood warning

─────────⊹⊱✫⊰⊹─────────

You walk in an open field, the grass and flowers dancing in the wind, swaying back and forth as you pluck flowers near you of all colours, putting them into a woven basket that you hold in your hand.

Being a drow and living in the under dark did have its fall at times but it was your home, but one you will never go back to after being free of the darkness that it had held.

Oh, how lovely it was to feel the sun hitting your cold skin and the fresh air, looking down at your basket to see that you had enough flowers to make what you needed you look around looking for somewhere to sit as your eyes land on a big rock laying on the ground.

Walking over to it you take a sea, setting the basket next to you as you watch the clouds move in the blue sky as they fly by.

'You had been taken by the mind fayers unknown why or how you do not remember as much as you think you should but had escaped with a githyanki called Lae'zel and a half-elf called Shadowheart after getting to the control part of the ship, not remembering what had happened after that as well.

Expected falling and being caught by some sort of magic?, after that, the rest is a blur finding Shadowheart then Lae'zel, Astarion, Gale, wyll and Karlach as you became a party. When meeting Wyll you meet people in a druid's grove, a tiefling called Zevlor had asked you to find a druid called Halsin who had been captured by the goblins.

After finding him as a bear trapped and then working with him to kill the ones leading the goblins, after that, there was a tiefling party, and being you, you decide to take a chance at talking to the wood elf to know him better.

Over time you too got closer and closer but only as friends, you wish for more but you don't want to crush the friendship that you already have.'

Looking back down from the sky to look at the basket filled with a bunch of colourful and bright flowers as you pick one up and sniff it a little It gives off a fresh smell.

Deciding to make what you were planning to as you bring the flower down to where you can see it as you take some more from the basket and then start to weave the flowers together slowly making sure not to make any mistakes along the way as you carry on.

After a while, you finish making the flower crown, looking at its thick with different colours of flowers mixed with green as you lift it to your head realizing that it's a tad too big for your head, putting it into the basket now which only holds now a few flowers left.

Moving off the rock onto the soft grass and sitting down you think about what happened when 'you had decided to go and someone caused you to be stabbed in the leg, coming back to the camp it was late, but didn't want to wake anyone up at the time.

But Halsin was already there waiting for you as he was at the campfire, he had turned his head hearing your food steps as well as your limp that you had.

“Y/n you hurt, what did you do this time?” he asked you as he took a look at your leg seeing that your trousers had blood all over them. You look down at your leg and see it.

“I've had an encounter with someone and helped them some a man who was going to harm them in return I may have been stabbed,” you say to the elf.

“Come here and let me have a look at your wound,” he says as he pats the log next to him where he is sitting, walking over to where he is and taking a seat next to him.

“May I?” he asks as you nod your head as his hand covers your wound, feeling warmth as he does his work as the wound fixes itself.

“be careful with that wound as it can still tear open if you do too much moving,” he says to you as look back up at him.

“thank you Halsin,” you say with a smile looking at the hole in your trousers that you probably fix later on, feeling the elf looking at you.'

Your ears twitch as you hear footsteps coming towards you as you look up you see the druid as he comes over to you.

“I thought I would find you here Y/n” he says as he takes a seat next to you his warm eyes watching you as you fiddle with your hands.

“Halsin, how are you on this sunny day?” you ask him.

“am doing well Y/n, and what about you?” he asks in return.

“am doing good, I have a surprise for you though, close your eyes” you say to him as you grab the flower crown from your basket and lean over to him you where tall but not as tall as he was, moving on to your knees next to him as you place the flower crown onto his head his eyes still closed.

“you can open them now” you say as you move back sitting back where you were before he opens his eyes his eyes moving you to see what you had put on his head as he looks back at you.

“May I ask what it is?” he asks curiously as he watches your smile making him smile a little.

“It's a simple flower crown, you can take it off if you don't like it,” you say as he takes the crown off and takes a look at it his smile grows and he puts it back onto his head.

“no, no I think I shall keep it on for a while, it's Beautifully made,” he says with his warm eyes meeting yours.

“Thank you, am about to head back to the camp would you like to come back with me?” you ask as Halsin stands up and holds his hand out for you.

“Yes I came here to make sure you did not get into any trouble while you were by yourself again” he says as you take his hand and he helps you up.

As the both of you start walking off to camp talking along the way.

i guess we doin trans satire now

[vital-information]

"And it’s no accident, I’d add, that the transsexual is the only thing that trans can describe that queer can’t. The transsexual is not queer; this is the best thing about her. Take Agnes, the pseudonymous transsexual woman who famously posed as intersex at UCLA’s Gender Identity Clinic in the late fifties in order to obtain access to vaginoplasty. Agnes’s case was chronicled by Harold Garfinkel ([1967] 2006) in an article that’s now taught in trans studies courses. (It’s the sixth entry in The Transgender Studies Reader.) Agnes is regularly celebrated as some kind of gender ninja: savvy, tactical, carefully conning the medical-industrial complex into giving her what she wants (see, e.g., Preciado [2008] 2013: 380–89). What no one wants to talk about is what she actually wanted: a cunt, a man, a house, and normal fucking life. Whatever intuition she may not have had about gender as a “managed achievement” was put toward a down payment on a new dishwasher (Garfinkel 1967). If there’s anything Agnes ��reveals” about gender, it’s that actually existing normativity is, strictly speaking, impossible. Norms, as such, do not exist. (If Gender Trouble knew this, it did a poor job explaining it.4) That doesn’t mean that norms don’t structure people’s desires; what it means is that the desire for the norm consists, in terms of its lived content, in nonnormative attempts at normativity. Agnes was a nonnormative subject, but that wasn’t because she was “against” the norm; on the contrary, her nonnormativity was what wanting to be normal actually looked like. Like most of us, Agnes was making do in the gap between what she wanted and what wanting it got her.

We can argue, and people have, about whether queer theory is possible without antinormativity (Wiegman and Wilson 2015). But whatever comes after trans studies—can I suggest transsexual theory?—will be impossible with anti-normativity. The most powerful intervention scholars working in trans studies can make, at this juncture within the academy, is to defend the claim that transness requires that we understand, as we never have before, what it means to be attached to a norm—by desire, by habit, by survival."

He's so nice to Karlach...

P.S. Weird that Gale says nothing about the player falling in love with Shadowheart

The Worng Deal

Halsin x warlock drow reader

Summary - it's been a while the last time you had seen the druid and happens when you cross paths again?

Masterlist

Words - 1880

Warrings - a lotta Angst??

A/n - well uhh it's been awhile I was but its done I guess I haven't read over it so there's mistakes here and there, but I enjoyed making this one

─────────⊹⊱✫⊰⊹─────────

Your eyes scan the shadowlands looking for anything useful while you're here on a quest that you stupidly got into, you follow a path your ears twitching hearing whispers in the misty air, it's been a long time since you were last somewhere that was green and living, unlike the underground there were living stuff there but now where you are you only feel so much as even more lost then you were before you made that pack with that devil.

But the more you keep walking the louder the voices get, surprisingly deciding to go towards them, they were not the whispers of the fog that is very much everywhere you go draining you. Hearing the sound of cries and weapons being used.

Your eyes find a pair of golden ones once the fog has cleared a little bit. Oh, you have not seen those eyes for decades, still the same maybe a little duller but yet still able to hold that light in them. Freezing as you remember the first time you had met the druid.

As you travel the upper lands, feeling the sun on your senses and skin after being underground for your whole life, eyes land on a patch of flowers all sorts of colours spread out ranging from reds to blues. But your eyes land on something that seems like you should not go near.

Flashback

Watching the bear sleep, staying a safe distance away before Turing to the river that was very close to where you were, seeing a fish as an idea pops into your head, you grab your long spear from your back as you walk into the water, getting ready to catch one of the fish.

After a lot of tries, you have finely caught one brings a great smile to your face as you watch as the fish stops moving, Turning around quietly and hearing a voice speak from behind you.

“You know that hunting, when a bear is around is dangerous” an elf says with amusement as he watches your eyes widen as you sheepishly smile towards him the spear still in hand with a fish on it.

“I.. it for was for the bear,” you say with a little stammer, looking to see if the bear is still there, not seeing where it is as the elf watches you.

“Do you by any chance know where the bear has gone?” you asked confused as you had not heard it leave while you had been trying to catch the fish. Hearing him let out a chuckle your eyes falling back onto him confused.

“I am Halsin a druid, I was the bear, very thoughtful about the fish I much say, but you should keep it for yourself you look like you need it more than I do,” he says to you the smile still on his face as he gets closer to you holding out his hand for a handshake as you take his warm hand with your cold ones.

“Ah thank you, Am Y/n it's nice to meet you Halsin the bear,” you say with a little smirk pulling up at the corner of your lips. As you get a better look at him, a young elf is probably around the same age as you. His eyes were a golden yellow and very bright.

“Never see drows up here, must have been a long journey?” he asks you with a tilt of his head.

“Yes quite the journey, it has been,” you say back to him.

“You must be tired, are you not?” he asks you as you nod your head at him.

“Yes I am, but I have far to travel,” you say to him as he looks at you.

“How about you stay at Emerald Grove to rest before you carry on?” he says to you as you reply to him

Back to the present

Knowing that you had stayed there longer than you had meant to by more than a couple days more by years and years until you had to leave. Seeing as the people he was with needed help.

Casting a fire spell towards a shadow as it's about to swipe towards the young half-elf with black hair, she turns to look at you in surprise. As you carry on casting spells at it until it's gone after a while the last lot of shadows have been defeated, you turn to walk off but before you get the chance to you feel a hand land on your shoulder.

Turing your head to look at who it is, as it seems it is the leader of the group, Turing around as they start to speak to you.

“Thank you for your help, how would you like to join our group, I would say it's not safe to be alone in the shadowlands” they say with a smile as open up their party to invite you, your eyes widen as their kindness.

“I couldn't possibly accept that, dear. You seem to look like you already have plenty on your plate” You stay to them as your eyes dot across each member of the group.

“nonsense, am sure that having another pair of hands would be most helpful” you hear Halsin say from behind the leader as he walks up to stand next to them, looking towards him.

“Well, I can't refuse that then can I” you say with a nervous laugh as you swallow some air. He knows who you are he remembers you.

Flashback

“Halsin, I've got to tell you something..” you say you did not want to ruin the mood but you had to tell him one way or another, letting out a sigh. As he turns to look at you his smile Turns into a frown.

“what is wrong, my love?” you feel the tears threatening to pore down your face as you take a deep breath in.

“Oh Halsin, you know that I love you very much,” you say trying to smile at him as you hug him as he gives you a quick squeeze back.

“is that what you wanted to say?” he asks as you nod your head, that's not what you wanted to say you coward as you look at him closely.

“Shall we head to bed then?” you ask as the sky has turned dark.

“yes, we should, love,” he says with a warm smile which you do not deserve, you should tell him why won't you? You much, but it hurts. But it's already too late as you both get to the shared bed as he puts his hand over you.

Still wind awake as you watch him rest, you know that you have a short time before he gets up, gently as you would you move his arm getting out of the bed and turning to look at him again as you lean in giving his forehead a small kiss moving back to look at his features close up for maybe the last time.

Moving back as you take a seat at his desk see some paper spread out with his written as you put it back in order and take a piece with nothing on it, grabbing a feather and dip it into the brownish ink as you write a letter.

Dear Halsin

I will not be here when you wake, I will be long gone so do not find me.

I'll miss you as I know you will miss me too, but I want you to move on with your life, don't stop because of me.

Goodbye, Halsin the bear.

Love Y/n

Your tears had stained the paper as you tried to rub it off you ended up smudging the ink a little on your name, deciding just to leave it as it is putting it back onto the table. Putting a hand up to a necklace that you've had when you were in the underground as you take it off and on top of the paper

Back to the present

As you lag staying at the back of the group as you follow them, the young half-elf slows down to walk with you.

“Thank you, for saving me. I would like a name” she says her voice kind.

“It's Y/n, and yours?” you ask as you move your eyes to the side to look at her, she's shorter than you but you're shorter than Halsin is.

“I am Shadowheart, it's nice to meet you, people we come across are not as willing to help as you were,” she says to you, noticing as she takes a good look at you. Knowing that she must not see drow a lot.

“It's no problem,” you say to her as the group comes to a stop at a camp filled with more people, seeing Tav head towards you learning that their name was Tav when they said to you that they wanted you in their party.

“Y/n we will take a break here and then carry on what we are doing in the morning” They say to you as you reply to them with a nod.

Your eyes fall to a fire with a log calling your name to take a seat to rest on, moving towards it, and taking the seat as you warm up. Sitting there for around 30 minutes as you feel your eyes about to close, when was the last time you took a rest? You couldn't remember.

“I didn't know you could cast spells,” you hear from behind you, now wide awake again guess you'll need to wait another time.

“Well, I can now” you say staying where you are looking forward you didn't want to look at him yet. As you hear him shuffle behind you.

“I see that you also no longer carry your spear with you,” he says as you flinch a little, it had been stolen when you fell into a trap, and the man that made the trap did not like drows very much and taken most of your stuff, and being stuck there for a bit...

“I... I missed placing it somewhere, and didn't have the time to find it,” you say to him, hearing as he takes a seat next to you as you carry on looking at the flames that dance in the fire.

“Y/n, am not angry at you, not any more, you left without a word but you did so on a piece of paper, i read that over and over, again and again I tried to understand, I looked for you, I did but then I stopped. You left for a reason, and I always had a part of you with me.” you hear him say as you finely look over at him as he holds out the necklace that you have given him. His face has a scar now on it but still the halsin you know.

“Halsin, I may not be the same drow that you met long ago, making a deal with the devil can change you for the worse or the better, it seems that I change for the worst,” you say as you move your hand over to his as you close his fingers back around the necklace, he wanted to give back.

Should there be a Part 2?

No one could have predicted the enormous growth of the police des moeurs from the fact of women’s subordination; but the fact that women had no legal barriers to throw up before them allowed the system to grow as it did.
