Day 5: Heathers (Reluctant Whumper)

Fandom: The Owl House

Summary: Hunter is sent to kill a wild witch. Even if he doesn't want to, he has to.

  Hunter had been told that obedient was the best thing he could be. It was the best way to help his dear uncle. It was as the titan had intended.

    He never questioned it. At least outwardly. Being sent to find wild witches was something Hunter had never minded. Missions to find titans blood or other mythical objects weren't rare and it didn't matter who got hurt or killed as long as he came back with what he was sent for.

    Even if he never found titans blood, he came back with most everything else. But this mission was different. When Belos had told him that his only job was to find a wild witch and kill her he opened his mouth to protest. 'Maybe she's not past redemption?' he thought.

    But he was obedient. He was like a loyal dog who ran back to their owner even after being kicked over and over. He was hurt over and over but he still ran to Belos. There was no one else he had to listen to, to guide him.

    So off he went. Killing was something he was uncomfortable with. Hunter had never taken a life. He never wanted to. But this was what he was needed for. It almost felt as if Belos was trying to get rid of him.

    But that couldn't be the case. All Hunter had ever done was what he was told or what was in the best interest of Belos. It wasn't easy.

    Hunter found the witches home. It was smaller but pretty. There was a window to crawl into so he walked to it. Placing his staff off to the side of the window, the boy crawled inside. He walked around until he heard laughter.

    It felt like his heart stopped. The witch had a friend over. He walked back out to the living area and stepped into the kitchen. Picking up a piece of fruit he reseated the situation.

    The truth was he could hurt her. It didn't matter what Belos wanted. Hunter couldn't do it. He had to return to say he hadn't found her or that he had failed to end her life.

    But how could he return empty handed. How did he walk into the castle knowing that he left instead of even trying? Could Belos know? What would happen if he found out?

    Hunter sighed as footsteps came from the hall. He hid behind a counter as he listened to two women talking. "I thought I heard something."

    The two women looked around the room until they found Hunter. "Golden guard." The target spoke. "Why are you here?"

    The boy just looked at her. She didn't look evil. Her shoulder length deep blue hair was half but up. Her clothes were nicely put together and so were her partners.

    But what now? He stood behind the counter with a knife. A knife he had barely realized he had in his hand. It had been given to him by Belos for the mission. "Routine checkup, I'll be going now." That was the best thing he could come up with.

    The witch knew better than to believe that. "Sasha, grab my plainsmen." The target said. Sasha nodded and ran out of the room.

    Whether Hunter liked it or not, it was time to fight. Running to the window, he was pulled back inside before he could grab his staff. "I know why you're here."

    "You do?"

    "I'm not stupid, you're here because I'm a wild witch. By the look of the knife, you're probably gonna kill me."

    Hunter tried to explain but the women didn't give him a chance. As Sasha thew her partner her plainsmen, the boy was thrown to the ground.

    With a plainsmen pointed at him, it became a matter of life and death. Hunter chose life. He didn't want to do it. Ever since he left the castle, he had been trying to find a way to avoid the bloodshed.

    The boy kicked the staff and grabbed his knife. He drove the knife into her chest and stepped away from the boy. Sasha screamed as she watched her lover fall to the ground. "May" she whispered as she moved over to her.

    The boy thought he might cry. Hunter figured he shouldn't stick around to kill her too. It didn't seem like a good idea to face Sasha, she was twice his size and even if he had fought people her size, he didn't feel like it today.

    While the college-aged women ran to her deceased partner's side, Hunter jumped out the window. Grabbing his staff, he ran off into the woods to report back to Belos.

    Avoiding Belos's wrath was good. The teen tried to focus on that. If he didn't, he'd have to deal with murdering someone. Why did he do everything he was told? Hunter followed every order, even if he didn't want to. It didn't seem fair. Maybe he should have just made May join a coven?

    None of that mattered now. It didn't matter that he hadn't wanted to kill May, he did. The pain that her grieving lover and her lizard like palisman must have felt was something he couldn't comprehend yet.

    Returning to the castle, Hunter informed Belos that he had completed his task. Once dismissed, he went to his room. There he laid on his bed. It would be a long night.

The Owl House: Charis!AU

Full animation

Here we are with a very small and rough sketch of what my Charis!AU is about!

I really should make a file about this- but anyways, in some ways this AU can be seen as some sort of swap AU (although, the swap is only for Philip and Caleb, and Philip is actually alive and well-)

Without giving out too much, Caleb is the one who ends up developing a very unhealthy attachment to his younger brother, his affection and duty of taking care of the younger soon enough becoming unhealthy, as he grows more controlling of him, feeling in some sort of way as if Philip is “owed” to him for all the sacrifices he had had to endure since he was a child himself. When … let’s say something happen to Philip, Caleb doesn’t take it very well, and after centuries of trying to find a way back to his little brother, or at least avenge him, his behavior surely takes a more obsessive and possessive turn.

Is very complicated to explain in few words, and kind of very dark-

STILL, this is just a small doodle, I will make soon the polished version with the og audio :3

Enjoyyyy

TOH Hunter headcanons (Golden Guard) (hurt/comfort and whump)

I made a list of my headcanons for Hunter in his Golden Guard era! I'm rather nervous about posting this-

I must warn, this account is focused on whump. Whump is a subgenre closely similar to hurt/comfort in which an author puts a fictional character through physical or psychological pain. Please, do not read if that could make you uncomfortable.

This list will contain mentions of:

Panic and anxiety attacks

Disordered eating

Physical injuries

Mild physical illness

Don't read under the cut if those matters are triggering to you.

- Hunter has nightmares about events he hasn't experienced per se, but that were experienced by previous grimwalkers in his position. Most of his nightmares involve Belos killing him, which amplifies his need to please the emperor in fear that his nightmares will become real.

- Hunter has some disordered thoughts when it comes to eating, since he's been taught that he needs to earn such a "luxury". He may have nutritional deficiencies due to this, such as anemia.

- On the same vein, it's likely that Hunter gets weird cravings often, both from anemia and from undereating. Occasionally he might even have binging episodes where he sneaks late at night into the kitchen and starts eating without others knowing, not even cooking the raw food.

- Flapjack acts like an emotional support animal to him. He follows Hunter everywhere and rests on his shoulder whenever he's tired, or if he needs comfort. Flapjack has also supported Hunter through panic and anxiety attacks, nuzzling into his chest.

- Wearing his Golden Guard armor aids him a lot when trying to show a calm facade, as he can hide his face, as well as limit the tremors when his body gets shaky. It gives him a sense of power and belonging as well. Therefore, he feels especially vulnerable when he's not in his armor.

- He suffers from Complex-PTSD. Sometimes, he gets emotional flashbacks that trigger anxiety and panic attacks. Hunter doesn't know what a panic attack is, but he's really ashamed of suffering from them. He just assumes it's a normal thing he has to learn to stop on command.

- Hunter is actually very emotionally sensitive. Since he was never allowed to show it, though, his body got subconsciously used to expressing his emotional stress through physical symptoms. Therefore, it's not unusual for him to feel "off" (with intense migraines, fatigue, stomachaches...) after an emotionally charged day.

- He snaps at people when they show concern for him, since he thinks he's being mocked or seen as incompetent. Other coven members never really showed concern, after all. The only person who has ever shown any sort of remote care for him before has been the emperor, and that kind of care was always conditional. Hunter feels like he has to prove his strength to everyone who tries to treat him like "someone" instead of "something".

- The Emperor's Coven had little-to-no actual medical assistance. The usual procedure for wounds was to bandage them without cleaning them beforehand. Hunter never questioned it. Most of his scars are from injuries that were never treated properly.

Whumpee struggling, screaming, and crying on operating table as Whumper carefully carves grooves in their body to look like a wooden puppet. The blood trickles down their body and drips onto the floor. The worst is when their knife grazes their jaw to recreate the hinged jaw. Or maybe they do unhinge their jaw, who knows.

I am a sucker for Eda being exhausted both mentally and physically, and her collapsing into Raine's arms after they pull her into a hug.

Like the kind hug where even though she's taller than them, she melts down into them and hides her face in their shoulder. And Raine is rubbing her back and muttering reassurances in Eda's ear and she's just reached her limit

And she's sleep deprived and tired and so touch starved, she falls asleep standing upright and Raine feels her go limp and they've gotta gently lower her to the ground so they can pick her up

Raine's voice makes her feel so safe, and she knows they have her, and its so easy to give in and faint into safety. And then Eda wakes up softly tucked into the nest, now in her pj's and pressed close to Raine, who is now playing with her hair and whispering little reassurances/a lullaby, even though they think Eda is asleep

And Eda realises that's probably why she slept so well until she woke up

✨Bonus✨

Me explaining what whump is to my non-fandom friend:

[whumpdoyoumean]

FINALLY decided to give The Owl House a try and WHOOPS binged the whole first season. I love so many of the characters but King is maybe my favorite, and I love his design. As soon as I met him I knew I wanted to make some fanart! I might try some different styles with him later, but for now here is this!

[autisticwriterblog]

I'm taking requests for this month's Whumperless Whump Event!

If you'd like to request a short whumpy fic about your favourite characters and/or ships, send me an ask with the following information:

The name of the character(s) and/or ship you want it to focus on

The specific prompt from the list linked above that you want me to write about.

If you want, you can also add a short prompt if there's a specific way you want me to interpret the prompts!

And then I can get writing!

These are the fandoms I'm happy to write about:

Alan Wake

Control

Dishonored

The Owl House

And these are my favourite characters to whump, although feel free to request other characters:

Alan Wake: Odin, Alan, Saga, Casey, Ilmo, Jaakko

Control: Jesse, Darling, Trench

Dishonored: Jindosh, Corvo, Emily, Daud

The Owl House: Hunter, Luz, Amity, Alador

Oh, and these are my favourite whump topics: sickfic, head injury, blood loss, nightmares, sleep deprivation, headaches and many more.

My only rules are I won't write the following:

Underage sex

Anything related to CSA, even just references

Adult/minor relationships

Eye trauma

Other than that, I'll write pretty much anything. I'm looking forward to making some characters suffer (and possibly receive comfort) this month!

THE OWL HOUSE: CALEB&HUNTER ANIMATION

Hihi, here we are with another small animation for my lil the owl house AU, Charis!AU!

This time, I will give you a small snippet of the relationship between Caleb&Hunter (yes Hunter still exists in this AU, and he is still a Caleb Grimwalker). Rather than being the emperor’s nephew, he is the emperor’s “son” and well, they di nit really have a positive relationship what can I say. Caleb isn’t going to win the award for father of the year any time soon.

Let me know if you’d like to know more hope you enjoy this! 🦊
