Dethklok adopts again, but does it right this time!

Achlys Wartooth and Nestor Murderface

Haven't quite decided the driving force behind their decision to adopt a kid, but once they're set on it, Olive insists that they need to adopt an older sibling pair- she knows how hard it is for teens to get adopted, and went through the traumatic experience of being separated from her sibling in foster care herself, so wants to do what she can to keep kids together.

They were given the option to keep their own last names, choose one of any of theirs, or pick a whole new one themselves if they wanted. Achlys chose Toki's because she likes him the best, while Nestor chose Will's because he thinks it sounds cool. 

They had a rough childhood that I won't get too into, but they were taken away from their parents due to neglect at age 6 and placed into foster care, and were eventually sent to a group home after some difficulties. 

They both have some emotional issues, and Nestor has some intellectual delays. Nathan especially has taken Nestor under his wing, as he sees a lot of himself as a kid in him, and Nathan makes a point of doing all the dad bonding activities his dad did with him with Nestor. Skwisgaar, too, relates to Nestor a lot, and starts teaching him guitar early on after the adoption once he notices how fidgety and quiet the kid is. Nestor takes to it like a fish to water, and Skwis is thrilled to see Nestor start to carry his guitar around everywhere, just like he himself does. The three of them end up writing their own little album together. Murderface has a soft spot for him since he chose his last name, and is super proud of any accomplishment Nestor achieves, bragging about him to any and everyone who will listen- including the press. Between that and the album, Nestor starts to build up his own little celebrity status at a young age, which kind of freaks all of them out.

Achlys is significantly more outgoing than her brother, and is quite the little firecracker. Her temper is closest to that of Pickles, and she may or may not join in on kicking the shit out of random assholes with him when given the chance. As I said, Toki is her favorite, and the two can often be found coloring together, or playing hide and seek with the klokateers, or any other number of fun, childish activities. She absolutely steals Murderface's heart when she expresses excitement over going to a monster truck rally with him, and he's never felt more like a proud father than when she out burps him for the first time. Her style comes from Olive, who gave her the opportunity and freedom to really start expressing herself through fashion for the first time, and boy did she run with it. Olive also teaches her some martial arts as an outlet for her anger. She's not very good at it, not yet, at least, but it does help her to start regulating her emotions better. 

None of them are good at disciplining, so that typically falls to Olive and Nathan whenever the two act up. Nathan is good at addressing in the moment issues with the same dad voice he uses on his bandmates, and for the more serious stuff, typically Olive can have a heart to heart and get through to them.

Pickles takes them to get their piercings.

Both of their favorite colors are pink. 🙂
