A Desperate Fool - Part 10
Part 9
Last time: Eddie and Nancy finish their long conversation on a heavy note
~~~
āDustin, your phoneās going off,ā Eddie shouts, hands shoved into the soapy dish water. He cocks his head around and watches the phone vibrate spasmodically across the table for the third time in twenty minutes. The only sounds filtering through the two-story brownstone are the phone and Dustinās off-key singing in the upstairs shower.Ā
He sighs, grabbing the clean dish towel to dry his hands with as he crosses the kitchen to silence the damned thing. Dustin invited Eddie to temporarily move in with him while Suzie was out at Boston teaching a seminar for the semester. Itās been a nice change of pace since the paparazzi found the temporary rental he was staying in.
Eddieās apology to Dustin had been quite long. Dustinās swift forgiveness was shorter than Eddie expected. It almost hurt to be forgiven so quickly, but when it became clear it was conditional on never talking about Steveā or even Robinā Eddie couldnāt argue. Itās a fair compromise. Whatever it takes to have an honest to god friend again.
So when Eddie picks up Dustinās phone, he genuinely considers throwing that friendship out the window. The screen says āKing Badassā surrounded by different sportsball emojis, overtop a picture of the two of them leaned up against the classic 1980ās maroon beemer. Steveās got one arm wrapped tight around Dustinās neck, a mint chocolate chip cone on the ground at his feet and a strawberry cone in Dustinās outstretched hand.Ā
The picture must be relatively new. Eddieās never seen that navy sweater, or those aviators before. His smile is as wide and gorgeous as he remembers, and Eddie only wishes he could poke his fingers into the picture and pluck the sunglasses off that pretty face to see those golden, hazel eyes look back at him.Ā
Before he knows whatās happening, before he can stop himself, before he can even think about anything at all, Eddie swipes right and hits the speaker button. Heās silent, frozen, and scared out of his mind as he listens so, so intently to the sounds of Steve breathing on the other end of the line. Knuckles white, Eddie turns the volume up as high as it goes and closes his eyes. The soft breaths wrap around him in the same familiar way an old, oversized sweatshirt does on rainy days.
Then a lot of things happen, very suddenly and very fast.
āHenderson? What the fuck, manā are you going to say anything?ā Steveās voice screams out, causing a tingling in his right ear where heād had the phone smashed to his head.Ā
Eddie gasps, involuntary and ragged.
A pause.Ā
Then, ā... Dustin?ā Steve asks, knowing full well the person on the other end of the phone is not, in fact, Dustin.
A loud, indignant, ear-screeching squawk from the stairs stops Eddie from responding. Dustinās standing there, across the room wrapped in a towel and dripping onto the hardwood, glaring at Eddie like heās a cat with his hand in the cereal bowl. Which, he sort of is.
āIām sorry.ā Eddieās not sure who heās talking to when he says it, but he thinks it applies universally in this particular situation.
Dustin shouts, āput it down!ā at the same time Eddie hears the faintest whisper through the phone.
āEddie?ā
Heās never heard his name uttered the way Steve breathes it in this moment. Itās a prayer at a funeral. Flowers at a graveyard. The edge of a cliff. A haunted house. Itās everything and itās too fucking much.Ā
āStevieāā
The phoneās snatched away from him as Dustin storms back upstairs, turning it off speaker.Ā
Heart pounding, ears ringing, head in a fucking fog, he swallows the acid flooding his mouth and moves back to the sink on autopilot, shoving his hands into the hot water to keep from pulling at his hair. Dustin's muffled bickering echoes down the stairsā he thinks he picks out something like wonāt let youā but canāt make out the words.
He hums the melody heās been toying with just to drown out the argument. It hurts in the way everything about Steve hurts, an ache heās slowly but surely getting used to.Ā
Almost thirty minutes later, Dustin leaves with a quick ābe back soonā shouted over his shoulder, slamming the door behind him before Eddie can respond. Heās not sure where heās gone to, but it feels obvious in the set of Dustinās hunched shoulders and the redness in his eyes when he comes home again hours later. When Eddie asks if heās alright, Dustin says heās fine.Ā
They donāt talk about the phone call.

Hello dear pastelitey,
I have been reading your Scar-centric Roayl AU fic since chapter 3 was posted, and I decided that AO3 comments weren't enough.
I love your writing so much, from the vivid images you create in my head to the suspense you bring to each chapter. Do I know what the spooky stuff is or what is up with that? No, but I cant wait to see what you're going to do with it.
And the way you write each relationship, like how Scarās and Grianās relationship changed over the course of the few chapters posted, to the early ones Scar has with the council and Pearl, and now, the last 2 chapters giving us a BOMB of a reveal with Scar and Cub and just. I am in awed.
I just wanted to say I love your writing so much, more than words can convey, just all the little hints throughout each chapter, you have my full admiration.
Have a fantastic day!
aaashfkshdkafksdksa hi!!! i was surprised to see an ask on here about my homesick au(still haven't figured out what to call it lol) as most of it has been centralized over on ao3, but believe me when i say that i was very delighted to receive this ask!! hi!! may i just say, your comments on my fic always make my day, i literally can't stop smiling while reading your comments, lol.
thank you so much for all of your kind words and for being such a dedicated reader + commenter. it's because of readers like you that i do what i do in the first place. when i first started writing homesick i didn't think anyone would want to read it, but i'm so happy to know now just how many loyal readers like you that my silly little royal au has.
again, thank you for all your kind words ššš i'm terrible with words when receiving praise, if you couldn't tell. so, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
you have a fantastic day!! :D

Since I'm failing miserably to update the AU's summary, I made this post with an even shorter summary for those who still struggle to understand what the hell is going on xD, so I hope this will be helpful š
I just added the most crucial stuff involved to the protagonists, but there's more you can read in the š extended summary š (there are some tiny things that I must change in that post, but the main plot remains the same).
If you still have questions about the story you can always send your questions in theĀ askĀ box š¬

What if y/n from have you eaten? Au had eating disorders?
oou! good question!
yes! that is definitely a scenario i would like to explore in the fic when i get to it. also why i want to write the fic with multiple different Y/Ns so we can explore different experiences and relationships with food
there is a "main Y/N" who is a glutton who likes to try anything and everything. i haven't done the research for it so i can't say whether or not they have an eating disorder, but they DO have an unhealthy relationship with food as a result of being shamed for their appetite. so that, coupled with their job that emphasizes appearances and first impressions, they eat smaller meals, seemingly healthier meals, safe meals. but when they're alone at the restaurant with the DCA boys, without having to worry about who sees them or how much they eat, they're able to enjoy their food openly and honour their body's cravings.
#ask the crab#Have You Eaten? AU#i'll add some ideas for the Y/Ns here in the tags because nothing is final yet#a single parent Y/N with a picky son or daughter#an international student Y/N who is feeling homesick and comes to the restaurant to eat food they miss from home#maybe the same student Y/N but a Y/N who forgets to eat or actively skips meals so they don't spend too much money#a Y/N that has tried many diets and workouts and still feels insecure about how they look#a Y/N that has developed health problems and can't eat a lot of the foods they once loved#a Y/N that wants to learn to cook but has always subconsciously hated their own cooking#food is just such an interesting vehicle for storytelling#food is tied to so many memories#nostalgia and trauma#it's fuel for our bodies but also a bridge for social interactions#my biggest worry with this au is that i can only write from my limited understanding of food#there's so many cuisines i haven't tried yet and am unfamiliar with#hence why i played it safe by making the restaurant a cha chaan teng a restaurant and cuisine that i am very familiar with

A Desperate Fool - Part 11
Part 10
Last Time: Eddie accidentally answered Dustin's phone
~~~
To say the past few months have been difficult would be putting it lightly. He wasnāt surprised like the rest of the Party had been when Eddie used a PI to track him down and show up on his and Robinās doorstep unannounced. However, Steve was surprised when Eddie decided to stick around. Itās impacted the Party in ways he didnāt expect.
Everyone tip-toes around conversations with him in best attempts at not mentioning Eddie casually. Sure, thatās partially Steveās fault since heād initially asked them not to, but now that Eddieās home itās frankly ridiculous how Nancy will side-eye Jonathan during a story, forcing him to back track and say they had a ādinner guestā over. Or the way Dustin stops mid-sentence and completely changes the subject.
Heād thought the worst part about Eddie sticking around was how itās clearly split the Party into factions, whichā according to horror movies, DnD, and Dustinā is never a good thing. Mike barely talks to Nancy or Dustin, whoāve both been banned from Steve and Robinās home on Robinās orders. Itās cordial between Max and Lucas and Dustin, but can be awkward at times. Wedding planning is the only exception to a cordial get together.Ā
Beckyās barely noticed a change, which he supposes makes sense since she doesnāt know about his history with Eddie. A pang of guilt strikes him every time the thought crosses his mind. He wishes he felt comfortable enough to open up to her about Eddie, about his parents, about his sexuality. Steve knows it isnāt fair to keep his cards so close to his chest, but he canāt help it. So he canāt really expect her to notice when he hasnāt given her all the information.
All of that bullshit was hard enough, but heās adjusting. Heās made good progress at mending the Party factions, specifically with Dustin and Mike. Everything was fine. Itās just another part of Eddie he could shove away into the corners of his mind, and force everyone else to do the same. It was fine, he was good.
But then his Teddieās voice rang through the phone like wind chimes on a summer breeze.
āāStevie?āā
Steve swipes his hands up his face and into his hair to pull tight at the strands. Heās surprised there aren't any wear marks on the floor heās been pacing for the last half hour as he waits for Dustin to get here, even though heād told him not to come. At least Robin isnāt home, neither him nor Dustin could survive her fury if she knew what was going on.
Thereās a pounding on the front door that sets his teeth on edge. Heās told that twirp a thousand times heāll knock the whole door down that way.
āDustin,ā Steve says exhausted and annoyed, āI thought I told you I wanted to be left alone.ā Yet Steve leaves the door wide open behind him as he heads back into the living room.
āYou hung up on me. You never hang up on me.ā
Dustin plops down into his usual spot on the soft blue sofa. Heās holding one of Robinās favorite blue, white, and green decorative pillows to his chest, his eyes just peeking out over the top like heās hiding.Ā
He wants to sit next to the kid and comfort him, but Steveās thoughts and emotions are a whirlpool he canāt navigate. So he continues to pace and avoids Dustinās painfully apologetic glance. āI just need some space ok?ā
āSteve, I know we all agreed a long time ago, but I really think you need to talk to someone about Eddie.ā
Steve cringes at the name. Itās been so long since heās heard someone say it out loud that his ears are ringing. āI do talk about itā himā what happened. I do talk about it, just not with you.ā
Dustin flinches like heās been slapped, but doesnāt retaliate, much to Steveās relief. He canāt help lashing out. His hackles are up and Dustin knows it. āI donāt think Max isāā
āWhatās wrong with talking to Max?ā
The kid scoffs, exasperation apparent in his squinted eyes, and argues āitās not like sheās going to give you an unbiased opinion. Max doesnāt like Becky, never has and probably never will. At least Robin and I finally gave her a chance after you proposed. So explain to me how talking to Max is better than literally anyone else?ā He slams the pillow down next to him and the movement sets Steve off.
āMax,ā Steve snaps, āis the only person whoās willing to hear me out and actually listen to what Iām saying, even if she doesnāt agree. Sheās the only person who doesnāt act like they know whatās better for me than I do. I can talk about the bad and the good times with Tedā EddieāĀ without scoffs and eye-rolling, or someone telling me Iām wearing ārose-colored glassesā. So donāt bullshit me about Max not liking Becky. Youāre just jealous Iād rather talk to her instead of you.ā
Fuck.Ā
Steve freezes in place and tugs at his hair again. He canāt make himself lift his gaze from the floor, stuck in a fog of panic. This entire situation is fucked, but he canāt bring himself to take it back. Maybe he couldāve worded it better. Maybe he can still apologize before he fucks up another good thing in his life. Before he pushes another loved one away because heās too scared to have a hard conversation.
āYou shouldnāt pull your hair.ā Dustin says it by rote. His broken voice is enough to force Steve out of his daze. He sits next to him and wraps Dustin tight against his chest.
Dustin sniffles. āAre you mad heās living with me? Because Iāll kick him out if youāreāā
āNo,ā Steve interrupts. āNo Iām glad heās back in your life, I know how important he is to you and Iām glad youāre getting that back. Heās my ex, but heās still everyoneās family, and for that Iām happy heās home. The Party deserves to have him around.ā
āEddieās a friend, but youāre my big brother. I love you, and youāre my family, no matter what.ā
Steveās eyes mist over. He kisses the top of Dustinās curly head, and holds him out at arms length to look him in the eye. āI love you too. And Iām sorry I snapped at you, that was super shitty.ā
The kid smiles at him. Itās a small thing, but itās genuine.
āAnd I am glad youāre talking to Max,ā Dustin adds on. āBut if you talk about it with more people, maybe it would help? Like, different perspectives and stuff.ā
āI know. I justā Iām not sure I know how to do that with other people. Itās been a while since Iāve tried.ā
āWell, why do you want to talk to him?ā Steve shouldāve known the kid couldnāt help but ask, especially with how their phone call ended. Months ago, when heād told Max to get in contact with Eddie, Steve just thought he wanted closure.
After hearing his name whispered soft and broken from Eddieās lips, a deep-seated craving rooted within him burst out as he pleaded with Dustin to give the phone back. Heād been drowning for over a year and Eddieās voice was like a forced breath of fresh air into his lungs, a crushing pressure on his chest that leaves bruises and broken bones but brings life.Ā
Steve felt alive.Ā
That was the moment the panic set in. Anxiety, self-loathing, and shame crested higher and higher untilā he was back in their home, screams ripped from his throat as he swung Eddieās guitar into the wall over and over and over until their bedroom walls were littered with holes, scraps of wood scattered across the floor, slivered into Steveās bare feet.
Except now itās not despair or anger that haunts his dreamsā thatād be too easy. The dreams that linger into the light of day are always soft and mundane. Theyāre dreams of him tucked into Eddieās side as they watch TV, or Eddie smiling at him across the kitchen while they cook. Moments Steve knows he can never have again.
Unless. Maybe.
Dustin might not be able to read his mind like Robin, but Steveās never been able to mask his emotions well when they bubble to the surface. āSteve, no, heās notā.ā
āBut heās trying, right? Everyone seems happy heās home, like heās getting better.ā
āBetter doesnāt mean heās good enough for you, Steve! Sure, yeah, heās genuinely working on himself and he really is changing, but that doesnāt undo what he did to you. None of us have forgotten that, and I donāt want you to either.ā
He pulls his hands away from Dustinās shoulders to wipe his sleeve across his face and sure enough, it comes back wet.Ā
āFuck,ā Steve chuckles, tone dark and self-deprecating, ādidnāt know I could still do that.ā Sniffling into his sleeve, he lets out a ragged laugh, long and heavy until it morphs into an angry, choked off howl of frustration.
Dustinās quick to pull Steve into him, arms wrapped around any inch of him he can reach while Steve heaves deep, uneven breaths. Without someoneās eyes on him, itās easier to open the floodgates, but heās held back the truth for so long that the whole dam bursts.Ā
āDustin, I miss him so fucking much. Thatās why I donāt know how to talk about this with anyone. No one wants to hear how I still wear his old guitar pick necklace to bed every night, or how no oneās ever made me laugh harder than he has. I never thought Iād see him again, but now that heās home, thereās nothing I want more in this world than to hold his hand, to hear him say my name again or see him smile. I want to be with herā I know she loves me. But itās not the same. I miss him and I hate myself for it. I hate how much Iām still in love with him.āĀ
Steveās not sure how long he hides with his face pressed into Dustinās shoulder, but by the time he shifts away, the sky is painted in cotton candy pinks and blues as the sun slips below the skyline. Worried heāll find pity carved into Dustinās features, he avoids his gaze altogether as he stands to move.Ā
The sound of padded footsteps follow him across the living room, down the hall, and into the galley kitchen just wide enough for two. Steve pours two glasses of water and sets it down next to the dishwasher, directly across from the oven where he sets his own. They hop up in unison, kicking their feet so they end up between the otherās knees on the outswing. A calm familiarity washes over him, like instead of dreading Dustinās response, theyāre just waiting for the next batch of cookies.
āHeās writing a new album,ā Dustin says softly, even if it echoes in the hollow of Steveās chest. āOn the acoustic.ā
Steveās neck cracks with how fast he turns to look at Dustin, who smirks lovingly at the shock that must be written in his eyes. āMikeās acoustic? He pulled it out of storage?āĀ
Dustin nods, eyes still shining wet in the light with his eyebrows raised like he canāt quite believe it either. āIām trying to convince Mike to come over so he can see for himself.ā He clears his throat and wipes his eyes before saying, āsometimes I can hear what heās working on andā itās different. Softer.ā
Steve smiles as Dustin tells him everything and anything he can about Eddie since heās been home. Finally, heās found another person he doesnāt have to pretend with, someone who wonāt tip-toe around the Eddie-sized elephant in the room that Steve constantly wants to ask about.Ā
An hour later as he walks Dustin out, one foot on the welcome mat, a last confession pours from his chest. āHeās not the only one that fucked up. Iā I did too. Made mistakes.ā
āWell,ā Dustin says, plain as day, so normal and even-toned that Steve feels his lungs sigh in relief, āMax and I are here to talk about that too, whenever youāre ready.ā
Steve goes to bed early that night. He crawls under the covers and reaches all the way to the back corner of his nightstand drawer where his fingers clutch the small, plastic triangle. The worn leather string slips over his neck easily. It sits lighter on his chest than normal.Ā
Thereās still a roiling sensation in his gut, but instead of burying his face in his pillow he reaches out for his phone, pulling it under the covers with him. His fingers move without his permission, automatic and self-indulgent. The light is bright against his eyes as he stares back at the string of numbers he wishes he didnāt have memorized. He contemplates long enough for the screen to dim, then eventually turn black. Taking it as a sign, Steve rolls over and is plagued with soft, mundane dreams.

I'm so annoyed. @kingcrow01 tumblr ate your ask about Danny's opinion on the League. tumblr i pressed 'save draft' why didn't you sAVE DRAFT.
ANyways I'm making a post instead. For everyone else, the ask was in summary:
What was Danny's opinion on the League now that he's left it? If he missed the familiarity of it, if he recognized the cult-like behavior inside it, and if he now detested his grandfather.
And to answer (again, grrr): It's complicated! We love complicated <3. Yeah, Danny does miss the familiarity of the League, it was still his home for the first ten years of his life and he has a lot of memories there. Plenty of good along with the bad, and while he's less homesick than he was when he was 10, it still hits him like a truck at random intervals.
Sam, Tucker, and Jazz are great, and he likes the Drs. Fentons enough that he's contemplated murdering Vlad for his meddling, but if he wants to eat the same food his mother used to make him and Damian, he has to do it himself and he can't get the taste right. No one knows arabic so he speaks it to himself because he doesn't want to forget his mother tongue, and he has a few books too. Frankly? He genuinely misses training.
Getting to use Sam's gym helps with his restlessness, same with training with Maddie, but he has no one on or above his level to go against other than his mother. And he only sees her twice a year at most. He knows that he's getting stagnant and he fucking despises it like a bad itch he can't scratch.
He feels conflicted about missing the League, however, since by now he recognizes the flaws and what was wrong with it, and he recognizes that it was cult-like. But even that is kinda, hrm, complicated? If this was a fic I would be able to go better into depth about what he has and hasn't unlearned because cult deprogramming is hard and Danny's doing most of this on his own.
Sam, Tucker, and Jazz have helped with the more obvious stuff: like the ecofascism, the disregard for human life, his emotional constipation; the more obvious stuff that shows in his behavior and personality. But none of them are professionals nor do they actually know the full extent of what Danny's life in the League was like. They only have snapshots since Danyal is very tight lipped about it. So they can only help with what they see themselves through Danny's behavior or word of mouth.
But in summary: He sees, for the most part, what's wrong with the League and disagrees with some of the stuff they do now. But he's very conflicted, and trying to dissect his feelings on the League confuses him. His protests about it whenever Sam and Tucker joke about it have at this point become mostly empty (altho it still causes him some discomfort), and its an inside joke between them three.
As for Ra's? Despises him. If only because Ra's wanted him to kill his little brother -- thinking about his motives with the League confuses Danny, cognitive dissonance and stuff, -- a lot of his hatred stems from "He wanted me to fight my baby brother to the death. I destroyed my relationship with Damian because of him, I had to fake my death and leave my home, and I will never meet my father or see my brother again because of him. Fuck that guy."
#dpxdc#dp x dc#dp x dc crossover#dpxdc crossover#dpdc#danny fenton is not the ghost king#danyal al ghul au#starry asks#demon siblings au#danny's opinions on the league is rather complicated but he knows that some of the stuff that happened inside was wrong. and while he's#always known that his upbringing wasn't normal -- and he took pride in that -- its only in recent years that he's learned that#this was a *bad* thing. that his upbringing was wrong. he's still kinda grappling with that.#danny's homesickness hits the worst when he's patching himself up from a ghost fight alone. stitching up his throat in his ghost form when#he gets hit with a deep child-like grief and the unwitting 'i wanna go home'. he's exhausted and sad and hurting and fucking *tired*#good mom talia al ghul supremacy. she's trying her best.#but yeah sam and tucker did a lot of good for Danny by becoming his friend. he's a lot better off than he would've been if he remained alon#'a child not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth' type of stuff. danny's aware of this and is incredibly grateful#for sam and tucker. and as a result can and will get violently protective. his moral code on killing can be summed up as: i dont kill bc i#value human life and it's inconvenient. but i will do it without remorse if i must.#vlad is only still alive because he's incompetent. but the ice is thin#catch me about to make an incorrect quotes post about this au. i am so close.

#my art#this is how I think theyd present themselves either in person or in headspace. the slouchers <3#sifs outfit is simple; the boots i always give them (but with star laces for funsies); loose sweater; simple pants#the pants are Meant to be jeans but isat doesnt Specifically Have Jeans so. theyre just Pants.#the sweater is slightly looser bc sif doesnt seem like a Form Fitting Clothes kinda guy to me but hes Trying to be more open#on particularly good days theyll roll the sleeves up or wear a sleeveless one methinks#even if everyone Knows abt the self-harm scars its hard to Look at them.#i also associate them being more open with them not wearing an eyepatch. esp bc hes the only one of the three to go without it#for mal (or 'ami' as i like to call it) i wanted smth reminiscent of a mourning outfit bc mal du pays means homesickness#and i picked 'ami' as a nickname bc ami means friend :] at least according to my basic translator. i dont speak french <3#ami's outfit being dark is also reminiscent of the inversion thing its got going on in canon.#ik the veil is starred in the original but i think ami would want the fewest reminders of home. on account of The Issues#(actually if i can come back to sifs laces sif also has issues with reminders of it bc of the memory loss but the shoelaces are His Choiceā#āwhich gives them a form of control over it and they can keep it subtle or undo it if he wants. which makes it easier)#anyway. i put amis hair in an updo and smoothed the hat bc i think ami wants to be Unremarkable. Unknown. so it keeps its silhouette Simple#(it still keeps the pins. theres smth comforting abt them. they shine like stars and theyre not stars and theyre not Home. but theyre You.)#and i kept the long hair i gave loop. dont ask me why its so long when the canon hair is short. maybe their hair kept growing over the loop#OH and i drew ami in a side profile bc Silhouette and also bc i think itd make an effort to keep people away from its blind spot#andddd i think thats about it? plus i actually managed to keep this one within a reasonable timeframe.#if their hair changes lengths/the proportions change between drawings. no they dont š peace and love and body craft#OH AND YOU FINALLY GET TO SEE WHAT I MEAN ABT SIFS BOOTS BC THESE ARE THE BOOTS I GAVE THEM ON MY REGULAR DESIGN ARENT THEY NEAT#i did actually try to give sif a different font but nothing Works for them like the pixel font. i cant explain it.#i think 'ami' would be a nickname that mira gives it. bc. shes Fantasy French. and its a sort of 'youre more than your yearning/loss' thing#me every time i think abt sifstem: yeah they just rotate in my head. nothing major#me every time i talk abt sifstem: oh hey im almost at tag limit again#au Good what can i say

Hi guys, this is usually what a doodle page ends up looking like <3 (oh, and @ancha-aus thought you might like this! Not writing but certainly fuel to my fire lol-)
This one is New Age filled!!! (Close-ups abd Lore beneath the cut!)
1) Night and Cross!
Night is actually very clingy once he's a teen. He doesn't usually realize it, but around the castle he'll snake to be closer to his Knights so long as there's no one he needs to keep his composure infront of is nearby. Cross is the one who's not used to physical touch (when it's not Ink ofc) so Night in his personal bubble makes his heart melt but also scares tf out of him <3
2) Error and Night's Meeting!
Error was carrying his whole life on his back and trying not to get arrested for unintentional property damage at this point, so when he saw the chance to get back at his brother and prove he was strong enough? Yeah, he got that on chance instantly. And was VERY smug when Nightmare chose him. (Also, Error is wearing gloves, so less Haphephobia)
3) Dream and Blue designs!
I think these are good tentative designs! Dream probably has a more regal fit, but he likes to play up that rugged exile look- He's inspired by Archers, while Blue takes on that classic Knightly-vibe. Their equipment is mostly stolen from Night's troops or brought with them from Blue's home kingdom.
Also, Dream is approx Killer's height at this point, shorter than Cross and *much* shorter than Apple!Nightmare. (Hc that Skeletons tend to be tinier in stature thanks to weird monster beauty standards. Horror and Geno's fam are outliers.)
4) Horror and Dust designs!
Horror is naturally a very *large* monster. He's very malnourished when Nightmare meets him, but by the time he's a Knight Nightmare has made sure that's no longer the case. He actually loves comfy, simple clothes, but to play up the whole 'strong mysterious' bit he wears a more barbaric Knight's garb. He doesn't mind acting scary, it's more fun that way :]. Dust is very very small, and envies horror sometimes for his size, but his tiny stature let's him control his body and move a lot quicker. He's very much based on a rogue, and usually covers the lower part of his face w/ a black cloth, and the upper part w/ his hood or mask. Dust only removes both to bathe, eat, or relax in a safe location. (Ignore that I can't draw the stupid gaster blaster lmao-)
These last two were space-fillers, but Cross and his Borzoi (Windmill, otherwise known as Milly (Killer named her-)) and really bad first wips of Ccino! I think Ccino was a chubby, happy toddler, but lost a lot of 'weight' (bone mass? Magic?) due to stress and pressure and bad eating habits. So it isn't until a while after the Coronation that he starts to relax abd feel safe enough to eat normal meals (Nightmare used to guilt him into eating snacks together, but as his boss (and younger brother) he can encourage it more often). By the time Killer shows he's still not quite healthy, but he's better. As more weight is lifted off his shoulders, the better he is. (That 'beauty' most people saw was a more stereotypical slimness, but Killer never stopped seeing Ccino as beautiful-) I think he never looked traditionally underweight, so no one noticed, and it was only much later that Night processed it. (And maybe it's why Dream hardly recognized him later on-)
#new age au#I love showing mundane life things-#and also these designs beamed into my brain#I can't draw Ccino for anything but the others? yeag#Blue is definitely my fave. and just like every au I will draw Blue perfect the first time and draw Dust 6 billion times š#Horror is kinda banger too tho#makes me laugh to imagine Horror picking up Dust mid-fight out of convenience and Dust weighs nothing to him#(also this size difference is exactly why Dust and Horror fight in the non-magic training. and why Horror accidentally obliterated his#shoulder later on lmao- Dust needs to be able to dodge any enemy. Horror needs to aim for small and quick targets.)#(Meanwhile Cross is the newest and Killer the oldest and if Cross adapts to Killer then he'll adapt to the others more easily.)#oh! and Ccino w/ his arc? I think I really like the idea of a Ccino with a plump body-type. but that conflicts with my vidion of Ccino kinda#losing track of eating and being co-erced by adults to skip meals just enough to make him the 'right amount' of curvy#so when Nightmare takes over it's a habit he's so used to he hardly notices that he's doing it. but. Night picks up on it because Ccino is#almost akways with him. their relationship is very much Ccino giving his life to help Night#but it's also Night recognizing that and giving it back to Ccino along with more the moment he can#just smth smth this au is full of fit and exercized people and I think Ccino deserves some comfort and healing and positivity <3#also I am SO fond of Nightmare getting up in people's bubbles. he does it most to Killer and Ccino for obvious reasons but#god forbid a noble be talking behind his back because he *will* twist around and shove under his knight's arms or sides just to#read them the riot act or stare them down <3#and I think when he was an adult Night was... kinda like the big brother? like. not an experienced one by any means. but he wasn't *not*#affectionate then either. he was better at being serious about it and more discreet. but like#Nervous Cross escorting him in public? Night nudges his shoulder briefly with a Tendril to try and comfort him. Dust having a magic overload#? personal Training against just Night so there was no risk of harming anyone else. then snacks and tea after.#Horror is homesick? Woah look at that a scheduled trip back to visit with Crop and side-track back to Horror's village? huh?? wild...#Killer upset at all? Night will find a solution. just you wait. a cat. two cats. perhaps even a cat in a little sweater? or y'know. just a#chat or a combat?#Nightmare showed his affections but was just more distant about it.#Oh also. all four were used to tendrils lifting/tugging them subconsciously. usually during trainings to avoid them hurting eachother by#mistake in their early days. Killer misses it sometimes
