My honored guests...dinner is served â¨â¨
Go on, little mouse. Partake, enjoy your supper...
I was so disappointed when Larian dropped Patch 7 with its new evil endings, but no Raphael dinner included, so I vowed to make up for it with a dinner of my own. I was all set to color and shade, but things didnât quite go as planned, and I had to take a little break. I picked it up again a few days ago, and here it isâfinally finished.
Happy holidays!

Astarion: I think he likes us. Tav: I like him, too. But I'd never say it to his smarmy face. Raphael has a crush on Tav and tries real hard to act cool about it.

Knot
Alright, it was put in my head that devils knot when mating/having sex. So...had to write this little ficlet.
Raphael x f!reader/Tav | SMUT | 18+ only
Scorching tension, the aching coil of your muscles as they stretched and clenched to accommodate him. Your fingers sought purchase, something to tether you to reality as ecstasy rocked with every thrust.
âRaphael.â Â His name tasted like honey, burnt like whiskey upon your lips. Â Your tongue felt leaden as he claimed your mouth, swallowing your pleading as he claimed you.
Amidst the haze and the heat, you noticed what a mess you were making of the cambionâs lush bed. âThe sheetsâŚâ  You murmured, attempting to sit up and regain some semblance of control.
Your hair stirred in the rush of wind the sudden beat of his wings created, the leather appendages stretching wide as Raphael pushed you by the throat back against the mattress. âAre replaceable.â Raphaelâs sharp claws dug against the tender flesh of your thigh as he dragged your body closer to him, drunk on the sensation of you so pliable and wet around him. He grinned down at you before a rumble of pleasure dragged from his throat. âSo willing, little mouse.â Â He leaned over, the skin of his wings turning the ambient firelight into a red haze. âTake all of me.â
Your eyes widened, feeling the flush of heat and heady lust his words aroused. Your body became taught as a bowstring seconds before the kill, his name spilling from your panting mouth, sweet to the taste.
Raphael fought to keep composure, failing spectacularly, burying himself deep within you, his sinful orisons of pleasure echoing your own cries. You felt his seed spill, the painful heat of it overshadowed by the pleasure as your body drank him in.
Your skin stung and broke as Raphaelâs teeth pierced where your shoulder and neck joined, marking you as his own outside as well as within. He continued rutting into you, stretching you as the infernal knot took hold. You whined and he silenced you with his fingers pushing into your mouth.
Hellfire eyes found yours, your foreheads pressed together in a semblance of twisted intimacy as you nearly choked on his long digits. âGood, little one. Take me.â Â
You wanted nothing more than to give in. To whatever end. Pain and pleasure mixed, your whines muffled around his fingers until he withdrew them only to replace the void with his lips and tongue. He was anchored inside, the languid thrusts of his hips sent spasms along your spine as Raphael pressed your legs down against your chest.
The two of you remained interlocked, twin flames made one, until Raphael was satisfied youâd been properly mated. Â When he finally withdrew, he dragged a single nail down your chest to your navel, pressing almost until he drew blood over your womb. His tail flicked against your side as he gave you a lazy, self-satisfied smile. âYouâre the image of sin, my dear.â Â His palm flattened against your abdomen possessively. âNow, go clean yourself. Â I will join you shortly for a thorough examination of your progress.â

Could I request some wholesome headcanons of the men meeting their baby for the first time after Tav gives birth? Iâm a sucker for babies in your content!
More babies content yess!!!!
âââ シ ・ďžâ: *.â˝ .* :âďž. âââ
Gale:
The dim light of the morning sun filtered into the room, casting soft golden hues over the bed where you rested, utterly exhausted but overwhelmed with the bliss of the moment. Your body ached in ways you didnât even know were possible, and every breath felt like a sigh of relief after the long labor. Beside you, swaddled in a blanket, was your newborn baby, sleeping peacefully after the chaos of their arrival into the world.
You hadnât expected to be awake when Gale entered the room, but his soft footsteps and the quiet rustle of his robes stirred you. He had waited so patiently, just beyond the threshold, giving you the time you needed to rest. But now, as he crossed the room to you, there was an unmistakable excitement in his eyes, an eager anticipation that couldnât be contained. The moment he saw you and the baby together, Galeâs face lit up with sheer joy.
"You did it," he breathed, voice full of awe. "Youâre incredible. Truly, I've never seen such strength and beauty in all my lifeâno hero in any story could compare to what youâve done today!"
His words poured out in a rush, and you could see the way his hands trembled with barely contained excitement. He knelt beside the bed, his eyes shimmering with emotion as he gazed at you, then at the baby. "The most remarkable thing Iâve ever witnessed! You brought life into this world, my love. Youâre an absolute marvelâno, more than that. You'reâ"
You raised a hand, placing it gently on his arm, a tired but fond smile playing on your lips.
"Gale," you interrupted softly, your voice filled with affection but laced with exhaustion. "Thank you, but⌠please⌠can you just hold the baby? And maybe just a be a tad quieter, my love."
He blinked, clearly caught off guard by your request. "Ah, of course," he said, his voice faltering for just a moment. But then, with that same boyish enthusiasm that made you fall for him in the first place, he beamed at you. "Of course! Iâm sorry, Iâm just⌠overwhelmed, darling."
Carefully, with a reverence that spoke volumes of his love and care, Gale leaned down and lifted the tiny bundle into his arms. His movements were delicate, as though holding the baby was the most important spell he had ever cast. The look of pure wonder on his face as he cradled your child for the first time made your heart swell.
As the baby shifted slightly in his arms, Galeâs eyes widened with joy.
"Oh, my little one," he whispered, his voice full of tenderness, but he began to get louder and louder the more enthralled with the baby he became. "Look at youâperfect in every way. Already a miracle, just like your mother."
You couldnât help but chuckle quietly, exhaustion still pulling at your limbs, but the sight of Gale with the baby was enough to lift your spirits.
"Gale, youâre doing it again," you teased gently. "Just⌠enjoy the moment."
He blushed faintly, realizing how carried away he had gotten. "Right," he said, lowering his voice to a near-whisper. "Quiet. Yes, of course."
But even as he settled into the quiet, you could see the emotions bubbling up in him, his eyes shining as he gazed down at the baby in his arms. And, in true Gale fashion, he simply couldnât resist the urge to speak again, though this time it was a soft, almost reverent whisper.
"You are such a wonder," he murmured to the baby, his voice barely audible. "Such a gift. I promise Iâll do everything I can to give you the best life, little one. Youâve already made mine infinitely brighter."
You watched with a smile as he continued to quietly shower the baby with praise, his gentle words filled with awe and love. The sight of him, so full of emotion, yet finally quiet and tender, made your heart swell with warmth. Despite everything, despite his usual tendency to ramble and fill the air with words, in this moment, he was perfect.
"You know," you said softly, your voice laced with amusement, "I think this is the quietest Iâve ever seen you."
Gale glanced up at you, a sheepish grin spreading across his face.
"Well," he whispered, leaning closer to you with the baby nestled securely in his arms, "you did ask me to be quiet. But Iâm afraid I canât help it. You and this little oneâyouâre both my greatest accomplishments."
You chuckled tiredly, leaning your head back against the pillow as you gazed at him and your child. "Youâre impossible."
"And you," he whispered, leaning down to press a soft kiss to your forehead, "are everything."
With your baby safe in his arms and Galeâs quiet whispers filling the room, you felt a deep sense of peace wash over you. For the first time in what felt like hours, you let your eyes close, the sound of Galeâs soft, loving words lulling you into a peaceful rest.
âââ シ ・ďžâ: *.â˝ .* :âďž. âââ
Astarion:
The soft glow of the candlelight cast a gentle warmth across the room as you rested in bed, utterly exhausted but blissfully content. The labor had been long and difficult, but now your baby, your child, lay swaddled in a soft blanket, sleeping peacefully beside you. Every muscle in your body ached, and your mind was a whirlwind of emotionsâlove, joy, and exhaustion mingled together.
But there was one more thing you needed to happen, one more piece of this moment that would make it complete. You glanced at Astarion, who stood a few steps away, his eyes fixed on the baby with a look you hadnât seen beforeâhesitation. His usual confidence, his sly, charming demeanor, had melted away entirely, replaced by something raw and uncertain.
He was standing there like he was staring at some delicate, untouchable treasure, unsure of how to proceed. His hands twitched at his sides, as though he wanted to reach out but couldnât quite bring himself to do it. You sighed softly, though there was a smile tugging at your lips.
âAstarion,â you said, your voice a little weak but firm nonetheless. âI just spent hours bringing this baby into the world. I think you can handle holding them for a few minutes.â
Astarion blinked, his gaze snapping to you as if heâd been caught in some sort of reverie.
âOh, darling,â he began, his usual velvet tone laced with uncertainty, âIâm not so sure about that. I mean⌠what if I drop them? Orâgods forbidâwhat if they cry? Or worse, what if they donât like me?â His voice was unusually soft, tinged with a vulnerability you rarely saw from him. You raised an eyebrow, half amused and half exasperated.
âIn the nicest possible way my love, get a grip,â you said, though your tone was gentle, knowing how much this moment was overwhelming him. âI promise you, they wonât break if you hold them. And after everything weâve been through together, I doubt our child is going to be scared of you.â
He hesitated for a moment longer, glancing back at the tiny bundle resting peacefully beside you.
The vulnerability in his eyes tugged at your heart, but you werenât going to let him stay trapped in his fear. You reached out with your hand, gesturing toward the baby. âCome on, Astarion. I know youâre not afraid of something this small.â
Astarion took a slow breath, then gave you a weak smile. âYou make a compelling argument, my love. Very well, if I must.â There was a teasing lilt to his words, but the nervousness in his eyes remained.
He approached slowly, like a predator stalking something fragile and precious, his usual grace turning into something cautious. With careful, almost exaggerated precision, he knelt beside the bed and reached out. His hands hovered above the baby for a moment, and you could see the hesitation still lingering in the way his fingers trembled slightly.
But finally, with a steadying breath, he slid his hands beneath the baby, lifting them up into his arms. The moment the tiny weight settled against him, Astarion froze. His eyes widened, and for a moment, he just stared down at the small, sleeping face nestled against his chest. The babyâs tiny fingers twitched, and Astarionâs expression softened in a way you had never seen before.
You watched as something shifted in himâhis fear giving way to awe. The tension in his shoulders melted, and he cradled the baby closer, his arms instinctively wrapping around them with surprising tenderness.
âWell,â he whispered, his voice barely audible, âI think theyâre still in one piece.â
You couldnât help but laugh softly. âI told you they wouldnât break.â
Astarion looked up at you, his eyes shimmering with emotion.
âTheyâre so small,â he murmured, his usual bravado stripped away completely. âSo⌠perfect.â He glanced back down at the baby, his thumb gently brushing over their tiny hand. The baby stirred slightly at his touch, their little fingers curling around his thumb, and Astarionâs breath caught in his throat.
For a long moment, he just stared down at the baby, his gaze filled with wonder and disbelief.
âIâve done a lot of things in my life,â he said quietly, as if speaking too loudly would shatter the delicate peace of the moment. âMost of them⌠not good. But thisâŚâ He shook his head, his voice thick with emotion. âThis is something I never thought Iâd have.â
You smiled, your heart swelling with love for him.
âYou deserve this,â you said softly. âWe both do.â
Astarionâs eyes flicked back to you, and for a moment, his gaze was full of something vulnerable, something raw.
âThank you,â he whispered, his voice trembling slightly. âFor this. For them. For⌠everything.â
You reached out, placing your hand on his arm, feeling the tension still lingering beneath the surface.
âYouâre going to be an amazing father,â you said firmly, leaving no room for doubt. Astarion let out a soft laugh, though it was tinged with emotion.
âI suppose Iâll have to be, wonât I? Not much choice in the matter now.â But there was no regret in his voice, only a quiet determination. He leaned down, pressing a soft kiss to the babyâs forehead, his lips lingering there for a moment. âYouâve got a lot ahead of you, little one,â he murmured, his voice barely more than a breath. âBut donât worry. Your mother and I will be here, every step of the way.â
He looked at you again, his gaze filled with a quiet intensity.
âTogether,â he said, his voice steady now, full of resolve. âWeâll do this together.â
âââ シ ・ďžâ: *.â˝ .* :âďž. âââ
Wyll:
Wyll stood at the entrance of your room, a rare hesitation in his posture. Heâd fought monsters, faced devils, and had become the Blade of Frontiers, a hero in his own right. But this moment, seeing his child for the first time, had him more nervous than he ever remembered feeling.
He glanced at you, resting on the bed, looking exhausted but radiant, and his heart clenched with overwhelming love. He had witnessed your strength through countless battles, but what you had just endured was something far beyond his understanding. You had brought a new life into the worldâhis child, your childâand now, it was waiting to meet him for the first time.
The midwife nodded, encouraging him forward, and Wyll took a deep breath before stepping inside. The tiny bundle in her arms was swaddled tightly in a soft blanket, a small, wriggling thing with a mop of dark hair, just like his. His heart pounded in his chest, a mixture of fear and excitement coursing through him as he reached out with trembling hands.
"Go on," you murmured with a tired smile, your voice gentle and reassuring, though you could see the nervousness in his eyes. "Hold your child."
Wyll slowly took the baby into his arms, careful and deliberate, as if he were handling the most fragile treasure in the world. The weight of the tiny body settled against him, and his breath caught in his throat. For a moment, everything else disappearedâthe world, the dangers, the chaos. There was only this.
The baby stirred in his arms, letting out a soft, sleepy sound, and Wyllâs heart melted. He looked down into the face of his child, his eyes wide with wonder, and time seemed to stop. He had imagined this moment, dreamed of it even, but nothing could have prepared him for the overwhelming wave of emotion that crashed over him.
"Hello, little one," Wyll whispered, his voice thick with awe. His thumb gently brushed over the babyâs tiny hand, and the babyâs fingers instinctively curled around it. That small gesture made his eyes burn with unshed tears, his chest tightening with a love so fierce it nearly took his breath away. He turned to look at you, his voice soft and filled with emotion.
âLook at them. Just⌠look at them.â His smile was wide, but there was a hint of disbelief behind it, as if he couldnât fully grasp that this was realâthat this tiny life was part of him, part of you both.
You smiled, your exhaustion temporarily forgotten as you watched Wyll cradle your child. The tenderness in his expression was something you had always loved about him. The way he cared so deeply, not just for you, but for everyone he fought for, everyone he protected. And now, that same fierce devotion was shining through as he held your baby, his baby, as if they were the most precious thing in the world.
Wyllâs gaze returned to the baby, and he chuckled softly, though his voice trembled.
âYouâre so small,â he murmured, pressing his forehead against the babyâs. âSo perfect.â His words were barely more than a breath, as if speaking too loudly would break the spell of the moment.
He stood there for what felt like an eternity, just staring at the tiny face in his arms, his heart full to bursting. The baby squirmed slightly, and Wyll adjusted his grip, instinctively swaying on his feet to soothe them. His touch was gentle, reverent, as though he couldnât believe he was allowed to hold something so precious.
For a moment, a flicker of doubt crossed his mind. Would he be a good father? Would he be able to protect this child, to teach them, to give them the life they deserved? But as he looked down at the babyâs peaceful face, those worries seemed to fade. He didnât know all the answers, but he knew one thing for certain: he would love this child with everything he had.
He leaned down, pressing a soft kiss to the babyâs forehead, his lips lingering there for a moment.
âYouâve got so much ahead of you,â he whispered, his voice thick with emotion. âBut donât you worry. Your mother and Iâweâll be here every step of the way.â
He looked at you again, his eyes shining with unshed tears. âThank you,â he said, his voice trembling. âFor this. For them. For everything.â
He shifted the baby slightly in his arms, cradling them closer to his chest as he sat down beside you. Together, you sat in peaceful silence, the weight of the moment settling over you both. Wyllâs heart was full, more than it had ever been, and as he looked down at the tiny life in his arms, he knew that this was only the beginning.
âââ シ ・ďžâ: *.â˝ .* :âďž. âââ
Halsin:
The room was bathed in the soft glow of a setting sun, casting warm golden light across the floor as you lay in bed, utterly spent but at peace. The long hours of labor had taken everything from you, and yet, you felt a quiet, serene joy as you looked down at the tiny bundle nestled against your chest. Your baby, warm and sleeping soundly after the ordeal, made every ounce of effort worth it.
Halsin had been with you for every moment of the labor, never leaving your side, his strong, reassuring presence a constant comfort. He had been so calm, so focused, using all of his experience as a healer and midwife to guide you through the pain, offering soft words of encouragement, steady hands to hold. Heâd seen countless births before, delivered more children than he could remember over the course of his long life. But now, standing near the bed, looking at you and the baby with a strange, hesitant expression on his face, he was a different man.
You caught his eye, seeing the quiet turmoil behind the tenderness in his gaze. He had helped you bring this child into the world, but now, as the reality of it all settled in, it seemed as though Halsin was uncertain. You could sense his hesitation, the way his fingers twitched at his sides, as if he were holding himself back from stepping closer. It was so unlike him to be unsure of anything, especially something as familiar as holding a baby.
âHalsin,â you called softly, your voice still hoarse from the effort. âCome here.â
His eyes flickered to yours, and there was something deep in his gazeâan emotion that he rarely let show. He approached, slowly, as though he were afraid of disturbing the peace of the moment. The air felt heavy with something unspoken, something more than just the awe of meeting his child for the first time. He had held thousands of newborns, but this⌠this was his.
When he finally reached you, he knelt beside the bed, his large hands resting gently on the mattress as he looked at you and the baby. His gaze was soft, full of love, but there was a trace of uncertainty, a vulnerability that made your heart ache for him.
âIâve delivered so many babies in my time,â Halsin said quietly, his voice rough with emotion. âI have held them, cared for them, watched their mothers smile with pride⌠But this is different. This is ours.â
The depth of his words sank into you, and you reached out, placing your hand gently on his.
âHalsin,â you murmured, âyouâve been waiting for this moment for so long.â
He nodded, swallowing hard, his eyes fixed on the tiny form cradled against you.
âI have. And yet, now that itâs hereâŚâ His voice wavered for a moment, something that almost never happened to the confident, wise druid. âI find myself unsure.â
You smiled softly, lifting the baby a little, motioning for him to take them. âYouâve done this a thousand times. But I understandâitâs different when itâs your own child.â
He hesitated again, his eyes searching yours for a long moment, before finally reaching out to gently take the baby into his arms. His touch was tender, far more careful than it needed to be for someone who had handled newborns for centuries. But as the baby settled into his arms, the look of awe and wonder on Halsinâs face was something you had never seen before. His whole demeanor shifted, as though the weight of this moment was finally settling in, and he was letting himself feel it fully.
The baby stirred slightly, tiny fists curling and uncurling as they nestled against Halsinâs chest. He breathed out slowly, a deep, shuddering breath, as though the enormity of the moment was finally catching up with him.
âTheyâre so small,â he whispered, his voice full of wonder. âSo⌠perfect.â
You watched him, your heart swelling with love as you saw the gentle giant of a man cradling the baby with such care, such reverence. There was no one else in the world you trusted more in this moment, and seeing the tenderness in his eyes only made you love him more.
âThey are,â you agreed softly. âAnd they have your nose.â
Halsinâs lips twitched into a soft smile, though his gaze never left the babyâs face.
âI suppose they do,â he murmured, his voice filled with quiet joy. âA piece of me, and a piece of you⌠a perfect balance.â
For a long moment, the two of you sat in silence, the only sound the gentle breathing of the baby in Halsinâs arms. You watched him, watched the way his heart seemed to melt with every tiny movement, every small breath.
Halsin leaned down slightly, brushing a kiss across the babyâs forehead, his expression full of love and reverence.
âI never imagined this,â he whispered, his voice thick with emotion. âTo have something so precious, so full of life, to protect and nurture.â
âYouâll be an amazing father,â you assured him, reaching out to gently brush your fingers against his cheek. âYou already are.â
He turned his gaze to you then, and the look in his eyes nearly stole your breath away. There was so much love there, so much gratitude and wonder.
âAnd you,â he whispered, his voice rough with emotion, âare the most incredible person Iâve ever known. What youâve done today⌠youâve given me a gift I can never repay.â
You smiled softly, your heart full. âYou donât need to repay me, Halsin. We did this together.â
He nodded slowly, his eyes filled with awe as he looked down at the baby again. âTogether,â he repeated quietly, a soft smile tugging at his lips. âAlways.â
âââ シ ・ďžâ: *.â˝ .* :âďž. âââ
Rolan:
The room was dimly lit by the early evening light filtering through the curtains. You lay back in bed, exhausted but content, a quiet joy filling your heart after the long hours of labor. The midwives had just left, and now it was just you, Rolan, and the little bundle swaddled in blankets beside you. Rolan had been pacing for the last few minutes, wringing his hands in that nervous way he did when he was overwhelmed, clearly on the edge of his emotions. You watched him, feeling the anticipation radiating from him, and a soft smile tugged at your lips.
"Rolan," you called gently, your voice tired but warm.
He stopped his pacing and turned to you, his eyes wide, as if he had been waiting for some sort of permission. You knew him well enough to understand what was holding him backâthis was new, different, a moment he had been dreaming of but was terrified to actually embrace. He was usually so confident, especially with his magic and his sharp tongue, but here, in the presence of his own child, that facade of arrogance had melted away.
"Come," you said softly, motioning to the baby. "It's your turn."
His eyes flickered from you to the tiny figure nestled in the blankets, and you saw a spark of wonder light up in his gaze. Slowly, as if in a trance, he approached the bedside, his breath coming in shallow, quiet huffs. He stood there for a moment, just looking, his hands trembling slightly as he reached out.
"Are you sure?" he whispered, his voice uncharacteristically soft, a touch of uncertainty in his tone. "What if⌠What if Iâ"
"You won't drop them," you assured him with a small smile. "Just hold them like this," you added, gently guiding his hands to support the baby.
Rolan swallowed hard, nodding as he gingerly slid his hands under the baby. As soon as he lifted the tiny bundle into his arms, the world seemed to shift. He held them as if they were the most delicate thing he had ever touched, cradling them close to his chest. The look on his face was one of pure awe, as if he couldnât quite believe what he was holding was real.
"They're⌠perfect," Rolan whispered, his voice breaking slightly as he gazed down at the baby. His fingers lightly brushed the baby's cheek, and a breathless laugh escaped him when the babyâs tiny hand instinctively curled around one of his fingers. "By the gods, look at them."
The way he said it, with such reverence, such pure admiration, made your heart swell. You had never seen Rolan like this beforeâcompletely vulnerable, overwhelmed with emotion, his usually sharp, guarded demeanor utterly gone. His gaze never left the baby's face, his expression full of wonder and disbelief.
"They're beautiful," he murmured, his voice thick with emotion. "How⌠How did we do this? How can something so⌠perfect come from us?"
Tears pricked at your eyes as you watched him, the love and awe in his face making your chest tighten. "It feels unreal, doesn't it?"
Rolan nodded slowly, still staring at the baby with wide, glistening eyes.
"IâI don't even know what to say," he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper. "I never thought I could feel this⌠this way. I never knewâŚ" He trailed off, shaking his head as if words had failed him completely.
The baby stirred slightly in his arms, their tiny face scrunching up for a brief moment before relaxing again, and Rolan's breath hitched. He looked down at the baby as if they were the most precious thing in the worldâbecause, to him, they were. His shoulders sagged slightly as he let out a shaky breath, his gaze softening even further.
"They're so small," he whispered, his voice full of awe. "So fragile. I don't know how to⌠how to be enough for them."
"You'll be more than enough," you said softly, reaching out to rest a hand on his arm. "Look at you, Rolan. You're already in love with them."
He glanced at you then, his eyes glistening with unshed tears, and he gave you a small, shaky smile.
"How could I not be?" he asked, his voice rough with emotion. "They're⌠gods, they're perfect."
For a moment, he just stood there, holding the baby close, his expression one of pure, unfiltered love. It was as if the rest of the world had disappeared, and it was just him and the baby, wrapped in a quiet, sacred moment of connection. You could see the way his entire being had softened, the way he was completely, utterly captivated by the tiny life in his arms.

Raphael:
The room was filled with the flickering warmth of the hearthfire, casting long shadows across the walls. You lay in bed, utterly exhausted after the long hours of labor but relieved, heart swelling with joy. A small, fragile bundle rested in your armsâa new life, the child you and Raphael had brought into this world.
Raphael stood near the foot of the bed, his crimson eyes glowing brighter than usual, a mix of wonder, pride, and something elseâa fierceness, as if this was a moment he had been anticipating for centuries. His typical, devilish arrogance seemed softened, his sharp grin tempered by genuine emotion.
"My love," he said, his voice as smooth as velvet but tinged with an awe you rarely heard. "You have done it. You have given me an heirâour child."
You could see the pride swelling in him, his chest puffing out as if he were ready to declare this triumph to the entirety of the Nine Hells. He approached the bedside with an intensity in his step, eyes fixed on the newborn. His hands, for once devoid of their usual grandeur, reached out to gently touch the tiny head wrapped in swaddling cloths.
For a moment, his gaze softened even further, lips parting as if to say something tender, but instead, the devil in him couldn't help but emerge. He straightened up, lifting his chin with a certain dramatic flair.
"An heir to rule the Hells, to carry forth my legacy," he whispered with reverence, his eyes now alight with a wicked gleam.
He reached down, gently but firmly, and scooped the baby up into his arms.
"Look, little one!" he declared, turning towards the open window that faced a tear in realityâthe distant, shimmering view of Avernus, the first layer of Hell. "All of this will one day be yours. The Hells will tremble beneath your feet, just as they have mine."
With surprising ease, Raphael lifted the newborn up, holding them toward the portal to Hell as if presenting his child to the infernal realm itself.
His pride was palpable, his voice thick with grandeur and excitement. "You will be the most feared and respected, a ruler, aâ"
"Raphael!" you snapped, sitting up in bed, alarmed. "Stop lifting the baby like that!"
Your sharp voice broke through his grandiose moment. He immediately froze, his eyes wide with surprise. Then, as if suddenly realizing the absurdity of holding a newborn up in such a manner, he lowered the baby back down, cradling them properly against his chest. The fierce glow in his eyes softened, and for the first time, you saw the slightest flush of embarrassment creep across his sharp features.
"My apologies," he murmured, glancing at you sheepishly, though his smile was still laced with pride. "Iâ" He cleared his throat, chuckling softly. "I was simply⌠enthralled by the moment. They are just⌠perfect."
Raphael looked down at the tiny face of his child, his usually cocky and collected demeanor cracking, revealing the depth of his emotions. His thumb gently stroked the babyâs cheek, his gaze fixed on them as if nothing else in the world mattered. For all the pride and theatrics, there was no denying the raw tenderness in his eyes now.
"Youâve given me more than I ever thought possible," he said quietly, his voice losing its usual boastfulness. "This childâour childâhas made me proud in ways I cannot even begin to describe."
He stepped closer to the bed, slowly lowering himself to sit beside you, still cradling the baby in his arms as though they were the most precious thing in existence. "And you, my love⌠Youâve given me everything. I shall never forget this."
You smiled, despite the earlier scare, your heart warmed by his devotion, his love. Even now, in this quiet moment, Raphael was both the devil you knew and something far more vulnerableâa father. His fingers, so accustomed to weaving magic and signing infernal pacts, were now tender, holding his newborn as if they were made of glass.
"You donât need to show them Hell just yet," you teased, reaching up to brush a strand of hair from your face, still tired but comforted by Raphaelâs presence.
Raphael chuckled, his sharp grin returning as he gently rocked the baby in his arms.
"Perhaps not," he conceded with a glint in his eye. "But one day, they will know itâjust as they will know the heights of power they were born for. But for now⌠they shall only know peace. And love."
His voice softened as he gazed down at your child, his earlier bombastic nature ebbing away as he leaned in, pressing a gentle kiss to the babyâs forehead. He held them close, marveling at the tiny life nestled in his arms.
"So small," he whispered, more to himself than to you. "And yet, they will shape the fate of realms."
For a long while, Raphael stayed like that, his eyes never leaving the baby, his body unusually still, completely captivated. You watched him, seeing the pride and love interwoven with his usual ambition. And in that moment, you realized that, for all his grand schemes and devilish desires, this was the most important thing in the world to himâyour family, your child.

Raphael having the time of his life on a Mediterranean holiday. All of this was prompted by ONE quote from the game where Raphael says "adieu" to the player even though French/France does not exist in Faerun. So the only logical explanation is our little princeling would use Dimension Doors to go across universes of course! You can get some of these as prints here!
Click on the images for clearer detail!
Edit:
For anyone wondering where he says "adieu", it's when you tell him to leave during his Shar temple scene. He says to you, "As you wish. [...] Until then... adieu." and then bows goodbye.
