in this same thought, wyll loves very deeply and will value his partners above himself. he believes in a fairytale sort of romance, a “true love” and while he knows that love does not conquer all, he is very much of the mind that it will try.
wyll falls in love very easily. he is very much a “love at first sight” sort of person, and has a bad habit of putting the people he is infatuated with on pedestals in a “they can do no wrong” sort of way, not that he means to.
#it’s a superpower 🤷#i have a lot of thoughts about him and love#sorry I haven’t been here I’ve been focusing on other writings

wyll would peel the orange, but in a way you wouldn’t have to ask. he would come and sit beside you while you’re reading, the orange he brought you sitting neglected on the table, and peel his orange and then offer it to you, he would take the unpeeled one instead.

“𝙎𝙃𝘼𝘿𝙊𝙒 𝘼𝙉𝘿 𝘽𝙊𝙉𝙀” - 𝙄𝙉𝙎𝙋𝙄𝙍𝙀𝘿 𝙋𝙍𝙊𝙈𝙋𝙏𝙎.
hi friends!! basically, i watched the teaser trailer for season 2 of shadow and bone, got excited, began to reread the soc duology, and then these happened! or rather, i found an ancient unpublished fic i wrote after the first time i read the duology, and decided to make that a problem for everyone else! i hope you all enjoy these, you don’t need to have seen the show nor read the books, i actually think many of these are fairly fandomless! i just wanted to explain my inspiration! DON’T ADD TO THIS LIST! i’ll make more lists like this one! ily all, bon appetit, go forth and write or read or nap or watch tv or something!
“ my goodness, you’re not nearly as stupid as you look! ”
“ you have all the answers right in front of you. you just need to look at it differently. ”
“ don’t presume that you know me just because you’ve heard a few rumors and read a few articles. ”
“ there’s certainly more to you than meets the eye, isn’t there? ”
“ i urge you to remember exactly who it is you’re talking to. because while others might appreciate your tone, i assure you, i do not. ”
“ i’m concerned that you mightn’t understand what discreet means. because the path of chaos you’ve just created is exactly the opposite of discreet. ”
“ you owe me a favour. i’m here to collect. ”
“ i thought it was a good time to pay you a visit. it’s been so long, after all; and we have so much to catch up on. ”
“ you are not your father/mother/parent’s child. not by anything other than blood, and that’s not even on the spectrum of importance. ”
“ i was wrong about you. ”
“ you know, i was warned not to get involved with you. people insisted it was a fool’s decision. but i held out hope that you’d prove them wrong. now’s your chance. ”
“ i’m not the sort of person to fuss over hurt feelings. you’re either of value to me, or you’re worthless. so prove to me that you’re not the latter. ”
“ you honestly think i don’t know where you go each night? i’m not blind nor an idiot. i just trust your ability to return home unharmed. ”
“ have you told anyone else about this? ”
“ there are no children anymore. only survivors. childhood and innocence are luxuries afforded to the privileged. not us. ”
“ i offered you an opportunity once. to build a better world together. we both know how that turned out. and now, you come crawling back, begging for… what? mercy? forgiveness? ”
“ i’m with you. always. no matter what happens, i will be right by your side. do you understand? ”
“ we’re a team, aren’t we? teams stick together. even when the leader is being a prick. ”
“ …i was really worried about you, you know. you scared me earlier. and i’m not saying it to make you feel bad, it’s just… promise me you’ll tell me if things get bad again? ”
“ i can’t pretend to understand all this stuff you’ve got going on. but i do promise that i’ll be here to help you through it all. alright? ”
“ there’s a job that needs to be done before we get to work on the big task. that’s why i’m here. you’ll be helping me/us to complete both jobs. payment upon completion. ”
“ you and i aren’t as different as you want to believe. that must be why you’re so angry. because looking at me, all that i’ve done… it’s like looking in a mirror. isn’t it? ”
“ people are scared. they need a leader. and right now, like it or not, they’re looking to you. so go on. lead us. ”
“ you’ve come up with some really insane plans over the years, but this is just defying any amount of belief. ”
“ look. i don’t care if people underestimate me. i actually enjoy it. they see me as an idiot, they drop their guard, the end. but i need you to know that i’m not an idiot. okay? ”
“ people have died. we can’t let that go unpunished. ”
“ the world is changing. and if we don’t get ahead of it, then they’ll be the ones to decide what it changes into. ”
“ right! what’s the plan, then? and god help the lot of us if you don’t have one. ”
“ not all of us can afford the luxury of a conscience. ”
“ don’t make the deadly mistake of presuming my actions reflect weakness. too many have made that same presumption. and not a single one of them lived to tell the tale. ”
“ you’re scared. i can tell. the shaking, the look in your eye… you want to run. don’t. you’ll waste precious time and energy, and you’ll need it all if you want to live. ”
“ everything is gone. it’s all smoke, ruin, obliterated. is that our legacy now? our reputation? destruction, devastation, death? is that who we are? ”
“ we’ve fought against powerful enemies before, but this is beyond that. if we want to get out of this alive, we need to be smarter, stronger, better than we’ve ever been before. ”
“ don’t forget why we’re here. there’s far more at stake than our lives if this goes wrong. ”
“ you’re the only person here i trust. we need to stick together, watch each other’s backs. just because everything’s changed, doesn’t mean we have to, too. ”
“ i can’t think of anyone i’d rather be doing this crazy, ridiculous, nearly definitely lethal mission with. let’s go out with a bang, eh? ”
“ you people are completely insane. but you’re also insufferably good at this sort of thing. so let’s go save the world, shall we? ”
“ why are we fighting so hard to save the lives of people who hate us, anyway? ”
“ you’re the best there is at this sort of thing. i’d hate to see the one who got the better of you… ”
“ look at them all. going around, fussing over money, clothes, land… do they ever realize what’s going on around them? do they ever see the bigger picture as we do? ”
“ you’re clever. good. it’s nice to have a challenge. but you should know now, you’ll want to be a hell of a lot smarter than that if you want to go up against me. ”
“ you and i both know the risks. we both know what people like them are capable of. tell me it’s all okay, and i won’t question you. but if it isn’t… we need to be ready. ”
“ it’s lonely and vicious at the top. i can handle that. but you… you wouldn’t survive five minutes of this life. ”
“ you can’t survive in this world without growing a thicker skin, and erasing that naive belief that you can trust anyone you meet. least of all me. ”
“ if you’re knocking on my door, i can only imagine it means you’re here to collect. and by your demeanour, it’s one hell of a favor you’ll be asking, too. ”
“ i understand your anger. i’ve lived with that sort of rage for many years of my life. but you need to set it aside, understand? we need you calm if we want to get out of here. ”
“ oh, don’t get all sentimental. i saved your life because you’re worth more to me alive than dead. it doesn’t signify any degree of care or affection. ”
“ you have one hell of an inflated ego, you know that? we were told this job was impossible. that’s not a challenge. that’s a fact. it is not possible. even for you. ”
“ i’ve heard it all before. one more job. one more mission. one last heist. but there’s always more. it’s like some sort of obsession for you. searching for another thrill. ”
“ enough! this is it! don’t you see that?! we almost died! you almost got killed! if the saints are kind enough to save us today, it’s only so we can quit while we’re ahead! ”

disgust warps hero's features. he cannot blame others for his own missteps, and more often than not he does not regret the pact he's made, the power it has given him. it was a noble sort of sacrifice, it was a necessary evil in his life. something that has bound them to one another, or at least he is usually able to justify it as such.
but as of late that justification has felt less and less believable, he has found it to fall deaf on his own ears, a sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach.
“ i hunt devils, monsters, not people, that was the deal. ” heartless, he thinks, that is the loophole used for karlach, and he wonders how many others she has found.
“ you've lied to me. ” and perhaps this should not feel like such a betrayal when he has always known what she is. “ deceived by a devil, i have only myself to blame. do not think i will be so willfully blind as to believe any of this was for my benefit. ”
her touch is hellfire, it drags along the rigid lines of flesh scarred into his features, still he does not raise a hand to her, only flinches, turns his face from her touch with a snarl that is meant far more for himself than her in truth.
“ as you said, it was your will after all, wasn't it ? that of the soul-binder. ” oh, how easy it would be to throw the blame on her, on anyone else. but it was his blade, wasn't it ? even if it was under her order, it is still his hands coated in the foul ichor. he wonders somewhere in the back of his mind if they will ever be made clean.
mizora's bored expression wilts away, blooming into something far more dangerous: narrowed brows and a sharpening of her eyes. calculation. her previous words had been cast offs, thrown as casually as slop to the pig-yard, though the cambion herself would never submit to such lowly action.
❝ do be careful, pup –– you may not receive the answer you wish for. ❞ and is that not an answer of its own? surely he's not so naive as to think karlach is the first. ❝ your priority is to do as I decree, not to question. shall I remind you of section 8, byline 12a? ❞ she clears her throat, reciting from perfect memory : ❝ the soul-bearer must enact the will of the soul-binder to the best of its abilities or suffer the consequences as reckoned in tandem to the offense committed. ❞
her pointed claw, sharp as the honed edge of a dagger, drags along the scars on wyll's handsome face. the glow of ownership shines bright in those infernal eyes. ❝ poor wyll, always so self-righteous. is it truly a lie if I was only attempting to spare you the heartache? is it not so much easier when the world is painted in delicious, stark black and white? ❞

the weight of his blade is tested, shifted from one side to the other as the checks the balance. it does not matter, changes very little truly; he has used the same rapier for some time now and the feel of it in his hand is always the same, never changing, a constant in hero’s life.
“I am ready, whatever may come.” / hi hi, i adore your blog <3
often he will go about preparing for battle in a rather specific way, a routine, a ritual of sorts he has formed over the years. today is no different. even with the newfound weight of horns above his head, the way they through his balance. he has not mentioned it, would not dare to cause worry in companions when there is so much on their plate already.
gaze finds @sarastuss , concentration melts from his features. the crease between his brows relaxes and he smiles, a kind look, friendly. “ whatever may come. ” the blade mimics, and he means it, for loyalty is ingrained so deeply in his bones he cannot remember a time without it.
“ there is no question we can brace any storm, nerves of steel, we're prepared for it.” boundless optimism.

patron’s voice rings across his mind, the feeling of her claws across his face, the smell of brimstone and ash that fills his lungs, suffocates words before he can speak them. this is a part of his pact, the inability to put it to words, to explain. mizora had said this was due to her desire of privacy, it had been necessary, she could not have demons and devils discovering her work for the greater good, that she had given power to a hero.
or at least wyll had assumed as much. as of late, the blade has started to question the nature of their pact, his patron's true intentions were still a mystery to him.
you're not telling me the full story. you're leaving things out
wyll does not find himself defensive, he understands curiosity is a part of their nature, what has led them together, bonded their party of misfit adventurers. he knows that if the situation were reversed, if the shoe were on the other foot, he might feel that same spite, that same hesitance at lack of answers, at the spaces left for the imagination to fill.
“ i would tell you if it were important. ” the blade counters, avoidance is not malicious in nature, and he truly hopes @lolthswear knows as much. “ i hope i have done enough to ask you to trust me in these regards. ”

"TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON" PROMPTS
* assorted dialogue for demanding answers, adjust as necessary
say it again, slower this time.
i don't have much time to explain, but i'll try.
you need to tell me what's going on.
i can't help you if i don't know what's happening.
you said something earlier, but i think i missed it.
i'm not hiding anything. i'm just trying to protect you.
what were you trying to say to me?
there must be more to the story than this.
you're not telling me the full story. you're leaving things out.
why do you have to be so secretive about this?
i wish i could tell you the truth. i really do.
why can't we discuss this now?
what's preventing you from telling me the truth?
you know what happened, yet you're just going to keep it from me.
don't i have a right to know?
i'll never forgive you if you keep this from me.
you're just going to have to find out for yourself.
don't leave me in the dark.
since you don't want to tell me, you leave me no choice.
i want you to talk to me, tell me what happened.
i don't like it when you're evasive.
you're hiding something.
all right, i'll tell you what i know.
you have to promise to take this with a grain of salt.
if i could tell you the truth, i would.
some things are better left unsaid.
you wouldn't believe me if i told you.
i don't know the truth.
i can't remember what they told me.
the last time i tried to explain it, you laughed in my face.
there's no getting through to you, is there?
tell me what's happening. tell me what's going on.
i can't do anything without your information.
you're the only one who knows how to fix this.
there's always something more, isn't there?
what else did they tell you?
what did they whisper to you when you were leaving?
you're keeping something from me.
you've never been a good liar.
look into my eyes and tell me the truth.
i wish you would just be honest with me.
something happened, and i'm going to get to the bottom of it.
if you won't tell me, i'll find someone who will.
that doesn't help me, you know.
you could try to be a little more helpful.
you never answered my question.
were you ever going to tell me the truth?
i'd like you to be honest for once in your life.
if you really loved me, you'd tell me what happened.
i won't judge you. i just need to know what happened.
just let me warn you... you're not going to like what you hear.
