I think true love is a women stabbing me to death so I can possess her and merge our soul into one body, together forever in bliss.

Promise

“Runaan, I’m gonna have to ask you to do something.”

Runaan’s eyes darted to the staff in Callum’s hands as he got to his feet. He didn’t speak, clearly waiting for Callum to do so.

“There’s a spell that can trap Aaravos,” Callum spoke quickly, wanting to explain his plan before Runaan had a chance to object. “I- I’m going to have to do dark magic- and as soon as I finish the spell, Aaravos is going to possess me-”

“Possess you?” Runaan started, eyes once again moving between Callum’s face and the staff.

“He’s done it before, but- but-” A vision of Rayla opening her arms to him flashed in his mind’s eye, taking his breath away. His one deep truth...

He was going to have to let her down. He had to do dark magic again. It was the only way to save her.

His voice caught in his throat as he thought about Rayla, about what he’d made her promise. Maybe he could at least free her from that-

“I made Rayla promise she’d kill me if Aaravos ever possessed me again, but-” His voice broke as he blinked back tears.

Runaan exhaled sharply, gripping his bow. “You wish for me-”

“Rayla will never forgive herself if she’s the one who-” He sighed, regaining a little of his composure. “But she’ll forgive you.”

“Callum, there must be another way-” Runaan frowned, shaking his head.

“There isn’t time!” He steeled himself; they needed to leave. “Aaravos is already on his way to the Sun Forge. This is the only way to save her. To save everyone.”

Runaan sighed, holding Callum’s gaze for a moment before he nodded slowly.

“Thank you,” Callum’s voice broke again.

Now that it was decided, fear began to creep in. He didn’t have time for that, for second guessing.

“Tell her, I’m sorry. That I wish there was another way.” He bit his lip as his throat grew tight. “And- and, tell her I love her… I love her so much and I wish we could have had more time-”

Runaan took a shaky breath, placing a hand on his shoulder.

Callum’s voice caught in his throat and his vision swam as tears filled his eyes. “Tell her I wish… I wish we could have had that nice, quiet life.”

I swear I'll get Purgatory pics done eventually. Honest... Anytime I read something by Zuppi, I feel the urge to draw what's in my mind. I have some ideas for Zoom-mates (NOT 'after hours' lmfao), Fuel the Pyre, Borrowed Time, Out Of Time and A Dark Alternative is pulling at me too but I'll know after a few more chapters. The fic this is based on is called 'More' on AO3, and it's what was in my head when I read Rayla's creative way to get Callum to shut up. That one scene kept popping up in my mind, pecking at me to be drawn until I caved and here we are. Go! Read it! Give Zuppi love and encouragement to write more!

✨ Dragonguard Rayla ✨

What if Rayla would have joined the Dragon Guard, just like her parents? In another timeline perhaps? What would Callum think when he first sees her?

This picture was inspired by @zuppizup 's work Out of Time.

Now please go and check out her amazing stories. :)

Extremely important poll that transcends fandom and even Tumblr:

hi numpty i re-read your cottage cuddles au and it’s really faster and cheaper than therapy, in general, I wanted ask if you are continuing to write a sequel? no rush or complaints, it's just one of my favorite stories and I'm curious. thank you!

It’s ongoing, yeah. It’s been half-written for YEARS, and it’s not even supposed to be very long, I just accidentally wrote a prequel instead and then a bunch of other stuff 😅 I wrote words on the sequel within the last week though, it’s not abandoned, just these days are ridiculously busy, ALL my fandom endeavors are on pause right now. It means a lot to hear you return to the fics, I wrote them to be comforting (pain can be comforting, leave me alone XD)

All the sequel teaser are in the [where the heart is] tag and I’ll post more soon 😊

I also have a few other cottage cuddles fics in the works, at least 2 far-future ones, one wedding based and one first day of school for cottage kiddo and Callum both (he'll return to uni in his 30s). I'll probably post a teaser of the wedding fic next wip wednesday, it's too late for today.

Have a teaser of the sequel though! You thought the sequel would be sexy? Nah, it be dumb. Very very dumb XD under the cut bc mildly nsfw but mostly very dumb

“Um. It’s… just… been a while. For me.”

“Callum. Dummy.” She cupped his cheeks. “We live together. I know it’s been a while. I know I joked about… how good I am at sex but… I’ve never had sex with you. I don’t expect to know everything or for you to. I like you a whole lot, and we’ll make it work if you have the two-penis phenotype, you know I’m flexible in the penis-count department-”

He sputtered, choking on a bit of toothpaste, and the nervousness lifted like magic, because laughter was like that and… Rayla was like that.

“I love you,” he said, relishing in saying it, in letting it spill over as it came to him instead of getting bottled up inside him like a heartfelt-speech-timebomb. “And my junk is… very average. Average size and amount of everything. My hands are big, and I know there’s a stereotype, but it doesn’t hold up, in my case.”

“So you have 1.928 balls? Plenty of men have less than two, and more than two is a lot rarer-“

“Median!” he laughed. “I have a median amount of everything!” Rayla had so resented her obligatory statistics class she had resolved to use it in her daily life because it was so irrelevant to her work life. “Now, who’s a dork?”

Can't believe my Girlfriends shooting down my weird sex fantasies cause they're "not realistic".

Like she doesn't mind the monsterfucking the murder the blood or knives no it's the realism that's problematic,,,

“So... ten babies, eh?”

Callum visibly cringed, eyes darting around the kitchen. Runaan and Ethari had disappeared again, leaving them to prepare dinner.

“Like, I said, I, uh, didn’t mean it like that-” Face bright red, he sighed, putting the knife down on the chopping board and turning to give her his full attention.

“Oh, how did you mean it?” She struggled not to laugh at him, his flushed appearance and stammering beyond adorable.

“We were talking about what a baby might be like if a human and elf had kids.” Callum sighed, rolling his eyes. “And then Lira decided to tease me-”

“Just talking about any random elf/human babies, were you?”

“Em, well, no... I guess not.” He laughed awkwardly, rubbing the back of his neck. “But they started it!”

“So, three kids got the better of you and you’re wanting ten?” She tried desperately to not to laugh.

“I told you, I didn’t say I wanted us to have ten.” He rolled his eyes, sighing at her teasing, before he grew a little more serious. “But, well, I meant what I said, I want us to be together. To have a life together.” He took her hands, smiling that soft, sweet smile of his. “And yeah, I guess that would involve, you know, babies. If you want them, that is.”

Rayla’s heart raced as she squeezed his hands and stepped closer to him. “I… I do.” She sighed happily, pressing her forehead against his. “I do want all of that with you, Callum. I love you.”

She wanted forever with him and had for longer than she could remember now. With Aaravos imprisoned and Callum free from the stain of dark magic, forever finally seemed like a possibility.

“I love you too,” Callum sighed happily, slipping his hands around her waist and kissing her softly. “Being with you- Us here together... it’s pretty near perfect... this nice, quiet life.”

“I don’t think ten babies would mean a quiet life.” She teased, slipping her hands up his chest and around his neck.

“Hmm, good point.” He chuckled, pulling her closer. “Pride Grandpa Ethari could help. And Runaan.” Grinning, he caressed her waist “Though he didn’t look impressed with the idea of ten grand kids.”

“I think he was probably a bit more concerned with you talking about us making babies at all.” She ran her fingers through his hair, resting her forehead against his. “And I am not having ten babies, thank you very much.”

“Na, that makes sense.” He smirked. “Obviously at least ten.”

She arched an eyebrow at him, unable to keep the amused smirk from her lips. “At least?!”

He shrugged, leaning in to her and kissing her softly. “What, you want twenty?”
