I FUCKING love you, Hassian 🛐💕

sorry to bother you but can you please do more hassian hcs? tysm 🥺🙏

It's not a bother, Hassian coming up!! Here are some winter-based hcs ❄️🎄

Hassian . . .

- stays at your place during winters with Tau

- usually doesn't bother to keep too much firewood during winter, as he's adapted to the cold; that changes as soon as he gets with you (he is getting so. much. damn. firewood.)

- helps out around your house and does not allow it to get messy in any capacity

- is still the main cook, but still loves when you help him out in the kitchen

- secretly looks forward to when you bake cookies or any festive treats, although he tries not to partake in too many

- requires moisturizing lotions during the winter, as his skin dries easily in the cold, dry air

- brushes out and redoes his locs every winter; your help would greatly cut down the time! Plus, Hassian secretly wants to bond with you that way

- reads a lot during the winter, as he has lot more free time; expect a lot of discussion over romance dramas, as you're the only person he can and wants to talk about them with

- tries not to sleep in, as he doesn't want to fall into a routine that's hard to break when spring arrives . . . buuuut he'll indulge a bit for you

- loves snuggling and sharing/maintaining warmth with you, especially near a fireplace or furnace; he gets chills all up and down his back, his face is one of pure peace, and he actually smiles and laughs

- thinks you are absolutely adorable in big winter coats; he has to look away after a while so he doesn't get cute aggression

- hadn't played in the snow since he was a boy with his momma, but you manage to bring out and heal his inner child a bit when you start snowball fights or build snowfolk with him

- is a competitive and ruthless snowball fighter; he hits his mark every time, so watch out!!

- is always curious about human tradition, so if you celebrate Christmas or Hanakkah, you have to explain to him what it is and why you do it. He's fascinated by any answer

- isn't one for putting up winterlights, but he'll insist on hopping on your roof to put them up for you if you do

- chops down a Winterlight tree himself; you are not going to buy the knockoffs when you have a boyfriend right here that can get a real one for you!

- loves decorating the tree with you. He feels strong surges of intense love and sentimentality every single time he looks at you. While placing lights, baubles, and other ornaments onto this intimate project that reflects each of your hearts, Hassian reflects on how lucky he is to have you in his life and share these special moments with you

In which Reth has a thing for being called ‘Chef’ by the Player.

[piltoverfinest]

CHOO-CHOO, WE'RE GOING ON A RIDE :D

And we are finally, finally treading into that E-Rated territory. So if you love Reth just as much as I...Rosie does, then hop on & ride with us. :D

[spectres-fulcrum]

So I semi edited and posted what I wrote all last night(I need to like actually edit it today) but it's that player/Hassian idea I posted a few nights ago. A quick summary:

(Or: Their courtship is secure, when they see Tamala while hunting. Hassian sees his reaction as a setback while his suitor wants to give his trauma induced scars a place to bleed safely. )

Definitely hurt/comfort. But full of love, but real love, not the sunshine and briar daisies love. I definitely wrote it with my character in mind, with female pronouns, and the name Emily, cause that's my comfort zone writing. But nothing about it is super gendered beyond pronouns.

I definitely think I did well capturing the village around them though. Hope you all enjoy!

[palia-obsessions]

Cookie!! So good! I loved reading this as a start to my day!

singularity 6 let him take a nap

[heartdrop]

i’m currently writing a reth fanfic and i was wondering where it would be best to post it? like here in parts as long posts, wattpad or maybe on archive of our own? or all three tbh why not 💀🙏

also here’s a wip pic from when i was drawing my recent art :3

[amorchai]

me: *plays palia for two days*

also me: *debates adding reth to my character list*

[cryptidliraz]

Guys please give me a sad scene writing prompt I want to write something and test out my angst abilities without writing an entire fic that I’ll never finish

[plotbunnybreeder]

Baking New Bridges

Reth knew Hassian disliked him for denying his family's Path. During a walk to find a special flower for Tish in Bahari, Reth finds a letter he's certain was written by Hassian. Initially thinking the "T" stands for Tish, Reth sets out to try and do Hassian a favor and maybe become friends.

How this turned into navigating between Hassian and Tamala baffles him.

[bubble-leaves]

Can we get more Hassian headcanons? Please? 👉👈

Of course!

Hassian . . .

- completely understands if you can’t adapt to his sleep schedule, as he literally gets up at 3 AM; it’s easy to persuade him to come back to bed, however

- doesn’t like when you’re out in the woods at night, but he’s not controlling; so, he’ll teach you his hunting skills with a bow and knife, as well as some basic self defense in case you find yourself in danger

- isn’t much of an artist, so if he sees that you’re skilled in that area, he’ll ask to see more of your talented work

- loves laying down in the grass with you to view the constellations; he’ll point and explain several of them, as well as show you where certain planets are in the sky

- occasionally weaves flower crowns to bring back to you when he’s away

- is quite possessive, so if he has a suspicion that someone’s eyeing you, he’ll put the kibosh on it immediately by giving you a bit more physical affection than usual in front of them

- gets jealous easily, as well; he’s not talkative about his jealousy, as it embarrasses him, so you’ll have to pry for him to admit it

- gets shy when you do something for him that he doesn’t expect, like making dinner for him to come home to, sewing his torn armor, etc.

- hides his face and blushes dramatically whenever you give him praise for being a good boyfriend (do not call this man a “good boy,” he will die)

- prefers to kiss first; there’s rarely a chance that you can sneak a kiss from him

- will smirk and roll his eyes if you do manage to surprise him w/ a kiss

- assures you that he can cure your insomnia, if you have it, with specific teas and cozying up with you (the second one is, like, the main important thing)

- is a major cuddlebug in bed, especially if he’s exhausted; touch and hold him and he’s all yours for the night

[athenagc94]

For those who know nothing about me... I absolutely LOVE fake dating as a trope. The tension as "fake" feelings become "not-so-fake" feelings is my bread and butter.

So... I have decided to venture back to a trope I love (and have already explored in other fandoms) with this new Hassian fic. I spent all of last night plotting it, so now I have a rough idea of where the story is going.

Stay tuned!

[palian-fairy]

Reth cannot cook today.

He has to use his hands around, has to touch knives and vegetables and he has to, Phoenix damn him, look at them too. How can he look at them?

How can he cook knowing where they've been?

Reth X Player Character/Reader

Two chapters in a week, I am on a roll this week. I am very proud of myself. And I really hope you'll enjoy this new chapter although...enjoy is probably the wrong word.

On that note: PLEASE NOTE THE ADDED TRIGGER WARNINGS. This ENTIRE chapter is gruesome. It's dark. Very dark. And it will be the only chapter that will ever get this dark, probably.

For everyone who does NOT want to read it due to saftey concerns, that is absolutely okay. Please stay safe, take care of yourselves. There's a summary in the end notes you can skip to.

[im-not-margaret]

Okay, so…I lied…

On the last chapter of “Building a Home”, I said there would be a hiatus…well…I got real bored. Keep an eye out for Chapter 11 this week😘

[sungrave]

Forewords: I estimate Hassian's age at this time around 7-9 ish. I couldn't find any other indication on ages than Taylin calling him "my smart baby",he was old enough to shoot a sernuk but Tay was very impressed.... That's what we are working with this time. Also i couldn't find/remember anything about how much time passed between them being kicked out and getting to Kilima so maybe assume it for a few months, a year tops. Time flies surprisingly fast when u get lost in the woods (just saying)

The ✿s are to indicate time skip

The letters are official from the wiki, the rest is just headcanon

At the end the bonus is with my palia character but i didnt include her name. Just fyi.

Good luck~

✿✿✿

-Here - Taylin said, letting go of Hassian's hand gently. His tiny nails were sparkling with glittering yellow nail polish and he stared at them awestruck.

-Be careful not to touch anything so it can dry properly alright? -he nodded then slowly turned to sit at the side of the bed, feet dangling and swinging back and forth while he waited patiently. A door slammed somewhere in the house then Sifuu's head popped into view.

- I'm home! - she declared proudly, drawing a little chuckle from Taylin.

- No way! - she said while her wife came over with a grin, leaned down to give her a kiss and ruffle Hassian's hair.

-Mother! Careful!! - he tried to lean out of the way holding his hands away and up in the air to prevent touching and Sifuu poked his cheek.

- Whatchu got there kiddo?

- My naails! - Hassian jumped off the bed with an exasperated expression on his face, clearly being done with his mother's antics. -You're gonna smudge them! - he cried out accusingly. Taylin reached out to wave him closer and he went around Sifuu, squinting at her and trying to avoid her reach. His mother grimaced like an animal trying to intimidate their prey but exaggerated it in a playful way. Taylin chuckled while lightly tapped his nails to see if they still wet then pressed a gentle kiss to his forehead.

-Go get a book ready for bed and I'll go read for you soon okay? - his eyes lit up and Hassian ran out with an excited hum, still carefully holding his hands up just to be sure he doesn't ruin his momma's hard work.

- You're home late - Taylin said, reaching out for Sifuu. She crawled behind her wife, gave her a tight hug then reached for the nail polish. Light peach pink, matching the blush that appeared often on Taylin's cheeks when they were together like this.

- There were some people asking for you - she started, her eyes darkening. Taylin, leaning back and resting her head on Sifuu's shoulder tensed but asked in a playful tone.

- Did they come for an autograph?

- There is some monster lurking in their woods -Sifuu said with measured nonchalance and carefully opened the vial to start on her beloved wife's nails, with the tip of her tongue sticking out. Taylin smothered a smile as she watched under her lashes. - They didn't specify but it's scaring the shit out of them and no one wanted the job because it's vague. No townsfolk was taken yet but they are worried. And they heard you are the best bounty hunter.

- Wow, not you? -Taylin interjected. Sifuu's hand slipped and the tiny brush flicked even tinier drops of nail polish on her dress.

- They must have heard it from one of my rivals - Sifuu huffed and froze but Taylin was still resting with head tilted back, her eyes closed now, completely giving herself to the tender loving care session.

- Surely. Do you want to check it out?

Sifuu let out a hmm, slightly concerned.

- We don't need to. But if they found us, it's only a matter of time before we get assigned to it by the guild. Besides we - she pressed the last word - are the best.

- Hon- Taylin leaned away from Sifuu.

- Hmm?

- What happened here?

Sifuu looked at her wife's hands, held out in front of them, fingers spread, both of their brows drawn, confused.

- What do you mean?

Taylin turned to look into her eyes.

-These are awful. - she said with a mortified look. Sifuu snorted then broke out in loud laughter and playfully nudged Taylin.

- What do you mean awful?? It's miles better than last time! - Taylin was trying to stifle her own laughter.

- Absolutely not, even Hassian keeps between the lines when he is coloring, better than you, are you drunk again?!

- How dare you - Sifuu's laughter stopped and she grabbed Taylin with an arm wrapping around her waist. - Take that back right now! I am not worse than Hassian's coloring! I even practiced! 

Taylin, so close to Sifuu's face and nearly bursting from amusement feigned outrage.

- You dare paint another person's nails other than your wife's?!!

Sifuu seemed upset but her eyes slowly focused on Taylin's lips, barely holding back a smile.

- I don't think that person actually counts as one. It was just Malayka - she leaned in to take a kiss but Taylin finally erupted in laughter.

- You are right - she coughed between wheezes - Malayka indeed doesnt count. - she calmed down slowly and then pressed her forehead against Sifuu's.

- Maybe ask Hassian next time for practice. You almost covered all the tops of my fingers with nail polish. Again. This is like the hundreth time.

- I tried my best okay?! - she grumbled and sighed at the gentle teasing.- Is it really that bad?

- I wouldn't have had it any other way - Taylin whispered and kissed her wife.

✿

Muffled anger filtered through the closed door and Hassian hesitated. Ever since her moms came back from that hunting trip, Momma was upset and Sifuu barely contained her insults even around him - to everyone great displeasure. There was silence now and he bit his lip in worry before knocking and then opening the door slightly. Her parents stood in the middle of their bedroom, visibly upset but holding it back for him.

- Momma? - he hesitated. Taylin kneeled on the floor and spread her arms for him. He ran over, face buried in her neck, melting into her embrace.

- Are you alright Hassian? - she asked worried. He stepped back and held up the little vial of gold nail polish. Taylin smiled but it didn't reach her eyes. - I'm sorry baby, maybe later, mommies are a little busy right now. - Sifuu exhaled loudly but didnt say a word. Hassian just nodded, a faint smile on his lips to reassure his momma it's okay and walked out. He was sure he just imagined the sound of sobs after he closed the door.

✿

Hassian,

How's the weather in the plains? Your mom told me there's a storm rolling in from the desert. I know how much you hate it when you get cooped up inside, but I promise when I get back I'll take you camping for a whole week! We'll roast dinner on an open fire and stare up at the stars, all three of us together.

The woods are dark, and dank, and full of bugs. Blech! Some day I want to show it to you. Once it's safe.

I miss you so much, my smart little baby, and I hope you aren't giving mom too much trouble while I'm gone. This hunt won't last much longer, I promise.

Remember what I taught you, okay? When you get lonely, just look up at the night sky and remember that the stars are watching over you - and those same ones are watching over me too!

I can't wait to see you again.

Love, Momma

✿

Hassian,

Can you guess what your momma caught today while hunting? There's lots of weird critters crawling around the Elderwood, but this one was the weirdest of all. Apparently it's called a Grumpy Granite Rockhopper! When it's threatened it makes the exact same face you do when we tell you it's time to go to bed! It looks a little something like this: >:(

I know I promised in the last one that the hunt was about to end, but this nasty beastie's real good at hiding, so I'm gonna have to be gone for a bit longer. Make sure your mom gives you extra hugs tonight, okay?

This time, for sure, I'll be home before you know it.

Love, Momma

✿

Hassian,

That's amazing!! You caught a whole Elder Sernuk all by yourself?! Your momma's so proud of you! I knew the moment you tried to grab my bow when you were just a little baby, you were made for this.

I'm sorry I'm not there to tell you that myself. Every week that passes feels longer than the next.

If I don't finish this by the end of the month, I'll come home no matter what. Save the next sernuk for me, okay?

Love, Momma

✿

Sifuu,

I searched for weeks, but there's no sign of her. If Taylin hasn't fallen prey to the beast then she's done a very good job of covering her tracks. There's nothing more I can do with a cold trail.

I've attached the things from her camp that weren't torn to shreds. There wasn't much left, I'm sorry.

Stay strong, yeah? You ever need help, just call on us. The crew's always got your back.

- Malayka

✿

- Pack up kiddo, we are going on an adventure! - Hassian gritted his teeth. There was no arguing with Sifuu, she acted like all was well, like they weren't just sent away from their own home! She acted like he was too little, too dumb to comprehend what's going on but he knew. He heard the townsfolk talking when they thought he couldn't hear it. He saw how they looked at them now. Her momma killed the beast yet they called her a liar and now they are kicking them out of the village because they are all liars but it wasn't true! He wanted to scream, he wanted to cry but momma would not scream, she would not cry, not in front of all these pompous arseholes! He slammed some of his clothes in a bag, he knew he wasn't supposed to use the bad words but those bad people deserved it! Her momma hasn't come back yet and everyone thinks she ran away in shame but she wouldn't run away! Ever! He was grabbing random items at this point, he never had a lot of things to begin with as he preferred to be outside with Tau and his momma and you lose things outside if there is too many of them but he stopped abruptly when he realized what was in his hand this time. A little vial of gold liquid. He bit his lips. He won't cry, he wont cry.... But her tears spilled and he sniffled loudly.

- Momma .... - "She will come back" he thought, dragging a string out of one his shoes. He tied it around the neck of the vial and looped it around his neck then shoved it under his shirt. The glass was cold, cold like his pillows since her momma wasn't reading him bedtime stories anymore. - She will come back - he said now defiant as he packed full the rest of his bag. And he will wait for her wherever they have to go after leaving this dumb village!

✿

- Mother? - he poked his head through the doorway. It was a new village, they finally found one where no one knew them and everyone was nice and welcoming. Even that lady major, regardless of how much she frowned at Tau and said something about muddy beasts. Tai was not muddy! But he didn't say anything, he just wanted to finally have a home again. Now their house was small, their neighbors were far and there was a lot of chapaas - which was already bugging him especially when one tried to steal his shoe while it was still on his foot for the Dragon's sake! It's been only a few days but he finally unpacked and had the courage to talk to his mother. She wasnt sick but she was... Something was wrong with her. At the beginning of their journey she tried to talk to him but he was mad at her for leaving momma behind. Now it seemed like she was the one mad at him but....

- Mother? -he tried again because she didnt answer. This time a low voice came faintly from her and he wasn't sure if it was a "hmm?" or a groan of pain. He lifted his chin and walked into the kitchen.

- Mother are you alright? - he asked, his little hands pressed together, fingers grasping each other nervously. Sifuu slowly focused on him then reached out to ruffle his hair.

- What is even alright these days - she slurred. Hassian grew worried . There werent many bottles in front of her but by the moons, she smelled like she drunk up a whole barrel.

- I... I.. - he couldnt. He tried to walk away but Sifuu's huge hand was still on his head

- Whatsup kiddo - she asked with a sad smile. Hassian's lips curved downwards. He couldnt say anything. He opened his hands, revealing what he's been clutching onto this whole time, hoping it would miraculously solve all their problems . Sifuu's hand fell.

-I...would you... - he started again. He was so nervous but why. He knew it was always momma doing his nails. And mother did momma's. But why were his hands shaking so much...

- I ... Can't.... - Sifuu's said quietly. Hassian looked up and there was sheer panic in his mother's eyes. He never saw that expression on her face not even when a sernuk almost ran him over because he was too small and it was approaching too fast and he froze with his bow and arrow in his hands... He swallowed hard and ran out of the kitchen, slamming the bedroom door behind him. His breathing was fast, his eyes teary, his head full of thoughts but deafeningly quiet at the same time. He opened the window and threw the nail polish out far, far away through it.

Sifuu sat there, frozen. She thought she got rid of all of them, when she heard Taylin possibly died and her emotions got the best of her and she crashed all of them on a rock. Memories she tried to drown for hours came up so fast she felt dizzy all of a sudden and she had to scramble to her feet to get to the sink before she threw up violently. Tears and half tainted alcohol mixed in the bowl as she slid down to the floor, hands shaking as she wiped her mouth. Her heart was breaking from disappointing his child and knowing she will never be able to share that joy with him. Her heart was breaking from the pain this innocent and harmless action. And her heart was breaking from the loss of her wife she eventually had to accept as final.

✿

Bonus:

- Your nails.... - she reached for his hand and he instinctively crossed his arms on his chest, hiding his fingers under them. She yanked her hand back and apologized.

- I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ... Embarrass you? I've never seen you do your nails before.

Hassian hesitated, slowly unfurling his arms.

- No, I'm sorry - he said quietly. - I'm... Still getting used to... You. I guess. That you dont ridicule me for.. anything?

She reached for his hand to take a look at it at the fire. It was a nice evening with the moons bright and the stars winking down at them but the little gold sparkles glittered playfully much better with the embers than the natural light.

- It's lovely? And very precise - she smiled at him encouraging and Hassian relaxed a little.

- Chayne helped with the nail polish. My momma used to paint my nails and after she was .... Gone... I couldn't find the color again. Chayne helped me mix the gold powder and it's not the same but still the closest... I was always good at aiming and keeping to the lines... -he trailed off.

- It's a beautiful way remember her on her anniversary.

Hassian smiled gently, looking at his nails with distant eyes. - Thank you for being with me. Here and.. in general. I know I can be... Khm. A lot sometimes.

She smiled at him and linked their fingers together.

- I wouldn't have it any other way.
