Just Another Night (Hunter/The Golden Guard x reader)
I'm trying my hand at plotless fluff for this one- I know, it isn't my usual, but I wanted to try something new :)
Trigger Warnings: Physical touch? Like nothing more than hugs though
Word Count: 3k
*******
  He returned with a broken ankle. Obviously, it had been a tough mission, but Hunter was careful and diligent most of the time- so I was a bit shocked when he knocked on my door with a limp and a grimace.
  “Jeez, you’ve really messed up this time, Blondie,” I snorted as I let him in, but softened as he winced.
  “I know, I know…Belos already lectured me. I’m on probation.” He heaved a sigh.
  Aw, that meant he couldn’t join me on scouting missions.
  “Did he say for how long?” I frowned, sitting next to him at my table.
  “No…” Hunter said, resting head on his hand. “He just said to stay off my feet and be more careful- replacing me is too much of a hassle right now.”
  Hunter was an invaluable member of the coven, so it truly would be tough to replace him. Although he was currently a basic scout, he was in training to eventually be the next in a long line of elite witches- The Golden Guards. I wasn’t honestly sure why he was qualified for the position, but I had faith in him. 
  “So after being told to stay off your feet, you chose to lug yourself to the other side of the castle to visit me. Wonderful planning skills.” I deadpanned.
  He shrugged. “My room was getting boring, and you’re interesting. My planning skills are great.”
  I held up my hands in mock defeat. “Fair point, although I’m not sure how interesting I’ll be tonight- my main plan is paperwork and caffeinated tea.”
  He pursed his lips. “Right, I forgot. Lilith gives you paperwork- is it fun?” He asked, genuinely curious.
  I scoffed. “If you like rules and strict guidelines, then yeah. It’s a blast.”
  His eyes lit up, and I remembered it was my best friend I was talking to- despite his rough-and-tough appearance, he loved rules and strictness. And while I wasn’t fond all the orders, I was always cheered up by his strange enthusiasm for work. It made it feel more bearable.
  “That is interesting! What’s it about?”
  I shrugged. “Mindscapes. I think Lilith calls it paperwork so that I don’t feel patronized, but it’s definitely more like schoolwork than paperwork.” 
  I guess it made sense. I left Hexside early to join the Emperor’s Coven, and I was being trained by all the coven heads due to my academic talent….well, I certainly wasn’t a great student, with average grades and too many missing assignments, but I was talented in magic and had more creativity than I knew what to do with. I suppose Belos didn’t want it to go to waste on basic combat…That’s the closest thing to an answer as to why that I had. And I had a funny feeling questions weren’t welcome.
  “Ooh, I know a lot about mindscapes!” Hunter grinned, flipping through the pages. “ They’re really cool, and-” His excitement faded. “I’m being boring. I’m sorry.” He sighed, slumping over again.
  “You aren’t boring, Hunter.” I said firmly, putting a hand on his shoulder. He grabbed it, squeezing lightly. “Your information is interesting, no matter what the adults say- and that’s coming from someone who gets bored easily.” I continued.
  “...Thanks, (Y/N).” He murmured, smiling lightly. 
  I gently let go of his hand and rose from my chair to make some tea.
  Hunter and I had been close friends for what felt like forever, but the physical intimacy was fairly new. Holding hands and sitting back-to-back… The most recent was my accidental habit of leaning my head on his shoulder on long sleepless nights spent on missions- it wasn’t intentional, but it had sorta stuck. I tried not to think about it too often- it felt like the sort of thing I would ruin with my overthinking. It felt delicate, like something that would shatter if either of us dared mention it.
  So I ignored my brain and focused on stirring the herbs into the water for our teas.
  Three shakes of brahmn leaves harvested on the waning crescent…hibyrne bark ground by the rays of the solar eclipse…common fool’s nightshade…
  I handed him the tea/elixir to help heal his ankle a bit, or at least speed up its recovery. 
  “Oh, you didn’t have to make an elixir!” He said, surprised.
  “I want your ankle to get better! And plus, it actually tastes good unlike the stuff you get from the infirmary. It’s more of a slow healing substance, so I don’t need to add as much snakeroot.”
  He blinked. “Huh?”
  “Snakeroot makes it taste bad.” I clarified.
  “Cool,” He took a sip of the elixir, leaning back into the chair. There was a moment of silence before he leaned forward again, a sudden bout of worry in his face. “Do you think Belos is mad at me?”
  I frowned at the change of subject. “Why would he be?”
  Hunter took another sip of the drink before answering, “Well…he said I was reckless. That he doesn’t want to replace me, but might end up having to if I contiue making stupid choices….I-I don’t know.”
  “Well…I doubt he is. If anything, he just sounds worried…or guilt trippy, but probably worried. I’m sure you can just sweet-talk your way out of it- you always do.” 
  He choked on the elixir. “I do not!”  He coughed incredulously.
  I snorted. “Really. What about ‘(Y/N), can you help me stack these books? You’re better at it than I am…” I said, pitching my voice up and pouting in an admittedly un-Hunter-like way.
  He huffed, trying to look offended, but his smile told me otherwise.
  “Ooh! Or ‘(Y/N), I have an important assessment today….would you mind coming to watch? I’ll do better with you there.’ And of course, ‘(Y/N)-”
  He shrugged, slightly flustered. “Okay, so I sweet-talk you. But you’re different!”
  “How am I different?” I laughed, enjoying his reaction.
  “Because-you let me, you like it! You love feeling like you’re helping me.” He accused, failing to mask his own laughter.
  I smiled, sipping my tea. “Hmm. I guess you might have a point there.” 
  “I do? -I mean- Pfft. Of course I do.”
  I chuckled as he stumbled over his words. “But seriously. I doubt Belos is mad at you. It was an accident, right?”
  “Yeah…but it was inconvenient. And now I’m on probation….” He rested his head on the table gloomily.
  “For how long- like, a few months? That’ll be over before you know it.” I said, falsely cheerful.
  “(Y/N)....” He said, fixing me with a ‘seriously’ expression.
  I slumped onto the cold table with him, meeting his eyes.
  “Yeah, you’re right. It sucks, I just want you to feel better.” I smiled ruefully.
  “I’ll absolutely lose my mind locked up alone for three months.” He mumbled.
  I took his hand beneath the table. “You’ll get through it. And besides, you won’t be alone….and you’ve already left your room.”
  He squeezed my hand, smiling lightly as if to say ‘Maybe it won’t be so bad if we’re together.’
  I squeezed back to say ‘I’ll stick with you, I promise.’
  He hauled himself up, not letting go of my hand as he collapsed onto my bed.
  “I guess there’s just…a lot in my head…it’s kinda selfish.”
  I sat next to him on the bed. “I’ll humor you, go on.” I chuckled. He laughed with me, before growing more serious.
  “Titan, I don’t want to bore you, but….I’m just sick of being in the way, you know?”
  I nodded sympathetically. As some of the youngest people in the coven, Hunter and I were often treated like nuisances and idiots. Having grown up with a more solid foundation, I didn’t internalize it the way Hunter did, but it even got to be a bit much for me. 
  He shrugged, leaning on my shoulder as he continued. “It feels like everyone just wants me to grow up already…to stop needing help, and to just…get things on the first try. I don’t want to be a problem, I just want to help…but maybe I’m annoying. 
  Maybe they just put up with me because I’m the next Golden Guard, or because I’m Belos’s nephew, and that’s the only reason why I matter….don’t get me wrong, I’m honored to serve the coven and everyone on the Isles, but sometimes I wonder….what if my future wasn’t set in stone? Would….would that mean I’m useless? Would I…matter to anyone?” He paused to breathe, and I took the opportunity to pull him a little closer. He complied, resting his head on my shoulder.
  “Sorry. I’m done whining now.” He chuckled, although there was an air of bitterness in his voice.
  I mindlessly messed with his hair as I thought of a response.
  “Hmm…well what you call ‘whining’ sounds more to me like a well thought out presentation of your completely understandable insecurities.” 
  He snorted, but didn’t answer.
  I gave a soft sigh, not wanting to say anything untrue, but also not wanting to hurt his feelings or make his insecurity worse…
  “Can I say something kinda selfish now?” I began, pulling away from his embrace to make eye contact.
  “Of course.” He said, raising an eyebrow.
  “I…I hope I’m not one of the people who make you feel like a nuisance, or a kid being managed.” I looked away. “I don’t care, to be entirely honest, about your role in the coven or your role in life. I just want you to be happy, and to understand that the people who matter are the people who care about you, not your job or your title….just something to think about.” I finished, looking back at him. 
  His eyes were glossy and wide as he stared back, at a loss for words. 
  Hunter tended to get this way after my compliments or validation- blushy, shy, and struck dumb. As cute as it was, it had grown to remind me of exactly how sad his life was, for affirmations to matter so much to him that he couldn’t even speak afterwards for fear of stuttering…
  He slowly put his head back on my shoulder. “Thank you.” He whispered, clasping his elixir tightly. 
  We sat in silence like that for a little, and I sayed as still as possible in fear of disturbing him. It was soon broken by a yawn. Hunter slowly sat up, rubbing his eyes. 
  “It’s late, I should head out.” He said, his voice heavy with sleep. He limped towards the door, trying and failing to walk on his busted ankle.
  I shook my head. “You’re not getting anywhere on that.”
  “Oh no, I guess I’ll just have to stay!” He said robotically, humor glinting in his eyes. “Too bad about that, huh? I didn’t plan this at all.”
  I shrugged, knowing full well that I could simply teleport him to his room.
  “Hmm, bummer!” I said, imitating his robotic tone. “I mean, if you wanna stick around, I don’t mind having good company.”
  He nodded, smiling as he sat at the table again.
  “Thanks (Y/N).” 
  I smiled back. I didn’t want to be alone tonight either. Besides, Hunter had slept here before- many times, especially after hard days of training or particularly tough missions, and neither of us slept very well- On any nights, but particularly on nights when we were curled up in the bed, talking about life and plans and the starry night sky. 
  Until the stars faded and the sun rose, a daily reminder that we really should stop drinking so much caffeine so late at night- especially with Hunter’s insomnia and generally awful sleeping habits. A stronger friend would force him to sleep, but instead, I stayed up with him. It was more fun that way. But tonight, his ankle was broken. To heal, he needed rest, he needed to sleep. So if he thought it’d be one of our normal sleepovers, he was sorely mistaken.
  I checked the clock. “Right. I think it’s time for bed, Blondie.”
  He looked up, startled. “What?”
  “You’ve gotta sleep to heal your ankle this time.” 
  “Oh- fine.” He sighed. “I guess that’s true.”
  I handed him a linen shirt and the trousers he had forgotten here last time, and he went to the closet to change. When he emerged, he collapsed onto the bed dramatically. I sat next to him on the mattress, waving my hand to turn off the lights.
  Although we had done this before, this felt…significant somehow. Like there was something different about actually laying under the covers, close but not quite touching. I turned my back away from him, facing the room to hide from my thoughts.
  I didn’t like him like that, I was just protective of our future Golden Guard, I rationalized. He was my friend, and I cared about him, and that was it. 
  Hunter had been my best friend since I joined the coven practically. Heck, he was one of- if not my only- true friends. He was one of the few people who was willing to listen when I was venting, but also wiling to talk about his life. He was interesting and fun to be around…And on multiple occasions, he’d put himself on the line to save me- like all the times he’s taken the blame for a mission gone wrong.  And I was there for him not because I felt bad for him but because I wanted to be there for him. 
  I looked over to him as he slept.
  Oh. Oh no. Oh no, no no no no. 
  “Oh Titan,” I whispered, feeling dread wash over me. 
   This meant something. 
   Hunter means something to me. 
   A lot, actually.
   I tried to close my eyes and sleep, but the dread was making my stomach hurt. 
  Instead, I crawled out of the bed and reached for my staff.  It was time for a long night of flying and getting my mind off of things.

Runaways - F! Wild Witch! Reader
Word Count: 10.1 K (10,168)
T/W: Somewhat graphic physical abuse, verbal abuse, death (petrification), abandonment
Summary: Summary: (Y/n) runs away when home is no longer safe. She meets the Golden Guard and together they strive for a better life.
This one has a better relationship with Reader and Hunter considering my previous ones lol.
“I don’t want a sigil!” She cried out. “I like my magic! I… I want to keep it, even if that means not being in a coven!” 
Her mother frowned and stepped forward. “What about the Titan’s will? About everything we’ve worked for?!” She shouted angrily, eyeing her daughter.
(Y/n) fought back tears of frustration and exhaustion. “MAYBE I DON’T CARE ABOUT WHAT THE TITAN WANTS! I DON’T CARE WHAT BELOS SAYS! I LIKE MY MAGIC- I LIKE BEING A WILD WITCH!!” (Y/n) finally confessed, shouting the truth to both of her parents.
Her mother scowled again, “HUSH!!” She bellowed, stepping forward and beating her harshly with a fist formed of abomination magic. (Y/n) shrieked as she felt the blows and attempted to cover herself with her arms, being knocked back but not giving in or falling as she was hit.  
Her mother halted and (Y/n) panicked as she felt her father’s hand gripping her wrist. She struggled, pulling back weakly as she tried to get away.
“Nonono!” She cried desperately, slipping on the floor as she tried to run, “NO! LET ME GO!” She screamed helplessly.
“After everything we’ve done for you-” Her mother cried out in horror, “You choose to live this disgusting life of- of-”
“Wild magic…” Her father muttered, pulling her closer.
“I can’t believe this!” Her mother cried out again, flailing her arms up. (Y/n) flinched back, expecting another blow after so many she had already received. 
(Y/n) yelped as her father lifted her off of the ground, pain burning in her arm as she felt her entire weight straining it. 
Her mother began to pace in the room, ignoring her daughter completely. “We take care of you! We feed you- look after you! We’ve raised you the best we possibly could!” (Y/n)’s mother shouted in anguish. “We’ve taught you all their is to Sigil’s and the Titan’s will! We’ve even had scouts come in to try to help you!!” She shrieked with frustration. (Y/n) panted madly as she tried to get away.
(Y/n)’s father gripped her face and stared into her eyes with disgust. “Out of all the damned, insufferable witches on these isles…” (Y/n)’s eyes bloomed with tears as she feared the worst. “I can’t believe my daughter is a wild witch-” (Y/n)’s father muttered again, throwing her to the ground. 
(Y/n) shrieked as she hit the floor. She trembled, disoriented and afraid. She felt the stinging of new bruises and scrapes across her body. (Y/n) got on her elbows, shaking violently as she tried to rise. The pain in her body overwhelmed her, causing her to collapse back onto the floor. 
The woman created a circle with her finger and it began to glow, “We can’t believe you…” Her mother muttered. From the circle, she summoned another round of abomination magic. She raised her arm for the final time and struck it down, commanding the ooze to slash the girl, crystal-like, miniature blades searing through her entire body, one leaving a big gash on her cheek.  (Y/n)’s parents glared at the child before them for a moment before walking out of the room, leaving her alone. 
(Y/n) panted frantically as she began to cry. She lifted herself off of the ground and kneeled for a moment, giving into sobs. The young witch cried with desperation, feeling empty and utterly hopeless. Her parents hated her for not wanting a sigil or a coven. From the moment they realized she didn’t want one, they used every tactic they could to try and force her to get one. All of their attempts failed and, with no hesitation at all, they resorted to violence and abuse.
(Y/n) curled up, weeping loudly. She covered her hands with her face as tears burned her like boiling rain. She could feel her soul tearing apart completely. She struggled to stand but finally rose with little balance. She began to stumble out of the room and up the stairs to the closest thing she knew to safety: her room.
She heaved her door open and shut it gently once inside. (Y/n) collapsed onto her bed, trembling as quiet sobs shook her. She shifted and looked to her window as the dim light of the sun gently washed over her. (Y/n)’s sobs became quieter as she watched the fading rays of light. 
She curled up into a ball once more.
No. This ends now.
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
The Golden Guard kneeled before the Emperor of the Boiling Isles. He trembled slightly, feeling the attack just barely brush his skin. He shut his eyes tightly as a few pieces of hair fell gently to the cold ground.
The male held his head high, “My apologies. I spoke out of turn.” The Emperor’s deformed armed slithered away and returned to normal. “It won’t happen again.”
The Emperor hunched over and grunted in discomfort. “These outburts are… ugh- painful…” He recovered and stood up as his eyes glowed a dangerous blue. “And so is watching you fail…” He hissed coldly. He stared at the young boy before him. “I know you can do better, Hunter,” He muttered quietly. 
Hunter smiled weakly. His eyebrows furrowed as he felt the slightest sliver of mercy from the Emperor.
He left the throne room and, after briefly speaking with Kiki Mora, went into his room. The young male laid on his bed and sighed hopelessly. He covered his eyes with his hands, “I can help. If I just knew a little more…” His thinking was interrupted by the familiar chirping of a cardinal. 
Hunter shot up and looked to his window where the small bird stood. “Huh? Palisman!” He exclaimed in surprise. He reached forward and clasped the bird tightly with both hands, causing it to peep. 
“Oh- sorry…” He apologized awkwardly to it. “You shouldn’t be here, it’d be bad if Belos saw you…” He murmured worriedly as he pet the bird. The red bird chirped and flew up, transforming into a staff. Hunter flinched back as he held the newly transformed staff. “Oh- I was not expecting that…” He stood and walked to his window, watching the world outside as he held the staff.
Hunter sighed again. “He never lets me help. Whenever I get to close- he pushes me away! Sometimes… sometimes he even hurts me…” He murmured bitterly, recalling when he had recieved a blow so sharp it left him with a scar across his jaw. He shook the memory off abruptly yet thousands more flooded in before he could stop them. The young male felt his hands begin to tremble as he recalled each attack. Time after time the emperor reacted harshly and punished him. From locking him in a cell for days to neglecting him to even attacking him; Hunter had seen it all. 
He shut his eyes and recalled his meeting with the human. He gripped the staff tightly. “She did save me from Kiki…” He sighed again, feeling claustrophobic and unsafe in his room. “Maybe… I should go, just for a bit! Maybe I can find some answers out there somehow.” He stared at the world outside as the sun began to set.
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
(Y/n) panted nervously as she crept through her dark room. She had spent an entire week planning and was finally ready. She knew her parents would keep a close eye on her, so she used extreme cation in her planning. (Y/n) reached her window and opened it, glancing back to her room. She examined it and felt a deep sadness overwash her as she saw her refuge for the last time. She took very little with her: a bag filled with clothes, some food, money she had scrapped up over the last year, and a plush she had loved since her childhood. She sighed, knowing she could bare it no longer, and climbed to the window. She shut her eyes and summoned the palisman she had kept secret for so long. She held the staff tightly and leaped out the window, falling slightly before gliding up and away through the dark town. 
For years her parents had abused and mistreated her. She suffered almost endlessly because of their cruelty. Tears burned her eyes as she began to sob. Where could she possibly go? Who could she possibly confide in now? (Y/n) held her head low and watched the town disappear from view as she flew away from Bonesburrough.
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
A young male made his way through the Bonesburrough forest as the evening faded into night. His head filled with endless what-ifs and what-should-have-beens. I failed- again. I keep failing… Maybe… Oh I should have left when I first thought of it…
As he trampled through the woods, a flash of movement caught his eyes. His instincts kicked in immediately and he summoned his staff, twirling it into his hands. He glared at the red trees surrounding him.
“SHOW YOURSELF!” He demanded, stepping back as he studied the forest surrounding him. “I KNOW YOU’RE THERE!” His grip tightened as he prepared himself for an attack.
A rustling from behind him made him teleport closer to the sound. He watched anxiously for any further movement. The male raised his staff as a figure made its way out of the shadows.
A young witch stepped closer to him. “Who are you?!” (Y/n) demanded as she held her staff defensively. The young male stood back and raised his own staff closer to her. 
“Who are you?” He questioned in return, carefully circling the witch. 
She furrowed her brows as she recognized him for a brief moment. “Wait-” She asked as she relaxed her glare.  “Weren’t you in the Hexside Flyer Derby team?” She asked as she relaxed her stance. 
The male squinted as he examined her, “And… aren’t you the kid who’s been missing for a couple of months?” She tensed and lowered her staff. “You’re in posters all over Bonesburrough…”
“I… yeah…” She lowered her shoulders. “You can’t tell anyone though! I- I can’t let them find me!” She cried out, stepping back nervously. 
“Woah! Don’t worry. I won’t say anything,” He reassured, holding his hands in front of him. Although his hands were facing her, he held onto his staff.
She glared at the male before holding her staff the same way he did. She gripped it nervously with a single hand. (Y/n) examined the male. He was a tall, somewhat sickly yet handsome male. He seemed rather mature just from how he acted. He had bright magenta eyes and dark eye bags. His hair was a bright golden color and a single strand stood out in front of him. He had a somewhat large, almost bulky nose, yet it was attractive. The last feature she took in was the first one she noticed: a large, gaping scar on the right side of his face from his cheek to his chin.
“Well, what are you doing here?” She asked nervously as she kept eyeing him.
The male blushed, “I- uh…” He hesitated to answer. “I just…” He frowned awkwardly. As he tried to come up with something, his staff disappeared and the palisman that once rested on it flew up to him. The red cardinal circled his head while chirping wildly before proceeding to tug on the stray strand of hair viciously.
“OW OW OW OW OW!! OKAY OKAY!!” He cried desperately as he waved his arms. The red bird let go of his hair and sat on his shoulder. The young male blushed even deeper in embarrassment. “Okay, the TRUTH-” He muttered as he glared at the palisman, “Is this: I’m the Golden Guard. And lately… I haven’t done a very good job in any of my missions. So… after a while of considering it… I… left…” He then looked at the witch in front of him before flinching. “BUT ONLY FOR A BIT! I just… want to better myself before returning…” He looked at the witch before him again. “What’s your story? Why did you run away?” He muttered curiously.
(Y/n) blushed madly. “I-” She choked, unsure of what to tell him. This was the Golden Guard after all. “I… I ran away because I was- my life was in danger…” She admitted nervously. Her grip tightened on her staff as she admit the truth. “I’m a wild witch and both of my parents are in covens. They have a pretty high status so… they hated me for not following their steps.” The male examined the young girl before him and realized just how many scars and bruises she was covered in. 
He chuckled lightly. “I… guess that makes two of us..”
She looked up at him, “Your parents hate you?” She asked. 
He frowned awkwardly and looked down, and shuffling his feet. “I… don’t have parents. I’ve never known anyone from my family except Emperor Belos. He’s my uncle!” He said as he smiled at her, “He found me and took me in. I… I’ve studied a lot about wild magic but… he doesn’t like it. I don’t mean any harm by it but it always upsets him. I’m trying to help his curse but… every time I get close…” He turned his head nervously and scratched his cheek as he thought. 
(Y/n) gasped as she realized. “He hurts you…” She watched as he bent his ears back and looked at her.
“Yeah… I guess so…” He frowned awkwardly as he tried to take his mind off of it. “Aren’t you from the (L/n) family?” He asked, recalling her last name from the posters. He remembered coming across her parents before. They were two powerful witches always willing to lend their services to the Emperor. But she’s a wild witch… maybe she understands curses more than I do… 
She eyed him before answering. “(Y/n). I’m (Y/n).” She froze for a moment before continuing. “And they’re not my family…" She muttered. She glanced up to him, “And aren’t you… Caleb Blood Jasper Willy or something?” She asked nervously. All of his questions made her uneasy. She felt exposed and vulnerable just from speaking to him.
The male laughed before waving his hand dismissively. “No! That was just a fake name- for Flyer Derby. My real name is Hunter.” He smiled again to the young witch. “I guess we’re on the same team, huh?” He crossed his arms and looked at her, recalling the human that had once saved him. 
“I guess so,” She replied, relaxing slightly. She looked up to the darkened sky. “Say, it’s getting dark,” She murmured, examining the darkened horizon.
Hunter shifted, looking around and realizing he hadn’t found somewhere to stay. “Yeah… It is getting dark…” He replied softly, feeling somewhat uneasy. I can’t go back to the castle. If Belos saw me sneaking back in at this hour…
(Y/n) glanced back to the male, sensing he had come unprepared. She hesitated, wondering what she was possibly risking just by mentioning it. “Y-you should come to my place.” (Y/n) offered.
Hunter looked away from fading light and at her, “Really? You’d let me come with you?” He asked with uncertainty. 
“Of course, why not?” She said, “Besides, I know I would have appreciated someone’s help when I first left. You haven’t been gone for long, right? Then that means you don’t have somewhere to stay.” Hunter glanced at her in disbelief.
“Well, thank you, (Y/n)”. (Y/n) smiled sweetly. She hadn’t heard someone thank her in years.
The young witch led the male through the woods until the moon rose. She then cast a cluster of light spells, small bright orbs hovering over her and Hunter. As they walked on, they arrived at a small clearing. 
“I’m… sorry I don’t have much to offer. I didn’t do much here because I felt I didn’t have the need for much but…” She looked to Hunter, “If you’ll be staying with me, I can fix it up!” (Y/n) chirped as she motioned to her small camp. 
Hunter looked in the direction in which she motioned. Within the small clearing there was a makeshift hammock made of abomination magic, a cluster of random objects, and in the center what seemed to have been a campfire. 
He chuckled lightly, “Don’t worry about it!” He exclaimed, “I’ve survived with less!” He said proudly as he looked at her few belongings. 
“Really?” (Y/n) asked suspiciously. She walked over to her hammock and sat on it. “How so?” She leaned forward and waited for a response.
“Well,” Hunter sat down in front of her. He watched as she created a new fire in the center of the camp. “To become scouts for the Emperor’s Coven, we have to go through intense training!” He explained excitedly. “We had witch’s duels! Mazes with traps! And one time- for our last training- we were left at the top of a mountain with nothing!” He laughed for a moment, “Oh! Whoever made it to the bottom alive was- haha! Was deemed worthy of being in the Emperor's coven! Hooo… classic!” He laughed again and (Y/n) laughed along with him, entertained by his excitement.
“Woah! Sounds like you went through quite a bit!” She laughed lightly again. (Y/n) pulled out a worn-out plush and held it in her lap. 
“Yeah, I guess you could say that.” He supported himself on his arm and watched the fire trickle. “But I was in the coven for so long that any of this feels like an advantage…” He glanced around again.
“Huh… I wish…” She muttered, resting her head on her plush.
Hunter looked up at her again. He examined (Y/n)’s features as the firelight made them visible. She had soft, (s/c) skin. As he looked at her he realized just how bruised and scared her (s/c) skin was. Her eyes were a gentle (e/c) color that reflected the warm fire. She had (h/l), (h/c) hair that gently flowed and swayed with the cold breeze.
His eyes darted to the plush in her arms and then to her scars. “What… happened to you? How did you get all those… scars?” (Y/n) glanced to her arms and blushed in humiliation.
“I should be asking the same thing!” She exclaimed. “You have a huge scar on your face!” She motioned towards him and unintentionally made the fire rise for a moment. 
Hunter flinched and thought for a moment before answering. He scratched his scar gently as he thought. “Okay, I’ll tell you but you have to answer me. Is that a deal?” He asked as he stared at her cooly.
(Y/n) laughed half-heartedly. “Sure, whatever.” She shifted again. “Okay, so tell me. How did you get your scar?” 
Hunter crouched and set his head on his knees as he recalled the moment it happened. “I was with the Emperor. I was still a young witch then…” He explained as he stared into the dancing fire. “I remember he had an outburst that day. I had become excited over something… I think I was talking about some… study on wild magic I had done…” Hunter dug his fingers into his knees. “I was talking so excitedly about it and suddenly- something cut me…” His eyes shifted wildly as tears began to gather in his eyes.
(Y/n) watched the young witch anxiously. “I fell to the ground and felt my face,” Hunter reached up to his cheek. “When I looked at my hand I realized it was covered in blood. I began to cry and… Belos was deformed. His hand had turned into a massive, goopy, thing. It almost looked like his limb was made of abomination magic,” He looked up to (Y/n) and realized how into the story she was. “He had an outburst and told me it was because of the curse wild magic had caused him.” Hunter rested his head on his knees and looked away. “After that… he taught me that wild magic was harmful- it hurt him and it caused him to hurt me. Now, my scar is a reminder that wild magic is harmful and dangerous…” His voice faded away gently as he finished his story.
(Y/n) squished her plush in her arms. “That’s… horrible…” She murmured softly. She looked at him nervously, remembering what he said about wild magic. She hesitated, unsure if being a wild witch herself would drive him away. Or he could report me. He is the Golden Guard after all… 
She glanced at Hunter who had curled up beside the fire. “My story isn’t too different though…” She rocked herself gently on her hammock. “When I found out that sigils lock away almost all of our magic, I knew I didn’t want to get one anymore.” She glanced nervously at Hunter. “I wanted to be free and use my magic. When my parents found out, they were furious!” She exclaimed. (Y/n) ran her fingers through her hair. “Oh Titan, they tried everything to get me to ‘reason’. They tried teaching me everything there was about the TiTaN and CoVenS. They showed me coven after coven to try and revive my interest in one…” She lowered her head, “One time… they even had scouts from the Emperor’s coven try to convince me to join a coven. They told me what would happen if I didn’t get a sigil by the day of unity.” She sighed and rocked herself in the hammock again.
“Then what happened?” Hunter asked curiously. 
(Y/n) squeezed her plush nervously. “When they realized that I wouldn’t change my mind after that… they began to use… other tactics.” The young witch shifted nervously on the hammock. Her gaze had become fixed on the flicker of the fire. “They began to humiliate me for being a wild witch, telling me how ungrateful I was for all of their efforts in raising me the right way. They yelled at me, they told me something was wrong with me, that I was pathetic and an abomination in the eyes of the Titan…” She scratched her neck nervously and chuckled half-heartedly. “And when that didn’t work either, well…” (Y/n) looked to her (s/c) skin and traced the scars and bruises imbedded into her. “They…” She choked, hesitating to retell what she lived for years. “T-they…” She tried to control her quaking lips to prevent herself from crying. “They started to use physical force to try and change my mind…” She tried to laugh through her sentence but her voice broke. (Y/n) hastily wiped away a few tears that had gathered in her eyes. “And that’s how I got- all this,” She motioned to her damaged skin. “They started to hurt me hoping I’d change my mind just so that I’d stop but… Here I am, wild as ever!” She chuckled nervously.
Hunter stared at her with wide eyes, his lips slightly parted. For the first time, (Y/n) noticed the gap between his front teeth, causing her to smile slightly. All of the imperfections he held were somehow… attractive. His eye bags, the silly, bulky nose, the massive scar, and the adorable little gap between his teeth. What a goofball… 
“I… didn’t know life was so… difficult for wild witches like you!” Hunter admit thoughtfully. He frowned in shame, “I’m… I’m so sorry you had to go through all that,” He murmured gently.
(Y/n) brushed it off, “Oh don’t worry. If I hadn’t gone through all that, I wouldn’t have run away and found you,” She replied gently.
Hunter blushed slightly. He hadn’t expected that she actually liked his company. Yet, she seemed to have. He smiled to himself as he watched the fire.
“And what about your toy?” He asked, motioning to the plush in her arms. 
(Y/n) blushed as she looked at her worn-out plush. “Oh uh… this is (plush’s/name). (He/she/it) was my favorite toy ever since I was little and I brought (him/her/it) with me. (P/n) reminded me of… better times…”
Hunter tilted his head with curiosity. “Did your… parents give it to you?” He asked nervously.
(Y/n) huffed and curled up on the hammock. “I bought it myself because they wouldn’t…” She muttered, squeezing (P/n) in her arms. 
Hunter smiled, “Well, Flapjack is my secret Palisman. I kinda go him myself too!” He said, motioning to the bird on his shoulder. Flapjack chirped happily as Hunter pet him.
(Y/n) lifted her head and giggled softly. “Same with my Palisman!” She summoned her palisman and it sat on her lap next to her plush.
The young male smiled, revealing the gap between his teeth. “I guess… we’re pretty similar, huh?” He asked, looking up to her. 
(Y/n) blushed. “I guess so…” She replied softly. She looked up at the sky, seeing the moon shine brightly through the night. “We should get some sleep, it’s already pretty late.” She said looking back at Hunter. She waved her finger to make a circle and created a hammock for Hunter.
“Goodnight,” She murmured as she laid on her side.
Hunter blushed again, “Goodnight…”
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
Hunter shuffled in his hammock, feeling the warmth of the sun wash over him. The young male rose up, rocking the hammock with his movement.
“Good morning to you, Mr. Golden Guard,” (Y/n) sang. The male blushed, remembering where he was. Flapjack flew to his side and chirped happily.
“How long did you say you were staying?” She asked, looking at the male. 
Hunter paused as he looked around. “Well… I had thought about… maybe just a day or two but…” He looked around the small camp, and then to (Y/n). He blushed again and looked away. “I guess I’ll stay a while… besides… I don’t think Belos would care if I was gone…” He muttered softly.
(Y/n) frowned slightly, “Well that settles it, we’re fixing this place up.” She stood up and brushed her hands together, creating a large circle.
Within the clearing, she created what seemed like the platform of a house. She glanced back to Hunter. “What? You’re not going to help?” She asked, eyeing the male. 
Hunter’s face turned a dark red. He stood up and looked away, ashamed of himself. “I’m… I can’t… actually do magic…" He murmured softly.
(Y/n) set her arms down and walked back to him. “Why not?” She asked as she approached him. 
Hunter frowned. “I’m powerless. A lot of my ancestors were. That’s why I use a staff,” He motioned to Flapjack who flew to him. “Without Flapjack, I can’t do magic.” 
The red cardinal chirped again as Hunter pet him. 
(Y/n)’s gaze softened as she looked at him, “Well, don’t worry. Magic or not, you can stay with me,” She offered sweetly, looking into his magenta eyes. 
Hunter smiled, “Really? You don’t mind?” He asked nervously.
“Nah, besides,” She called her palisman over, “I could use some company, and so could you.” Hunter smiled at her, grateful someone wasn’t shaming him at last. “You’re still helping me though!” She sang happily as she created another circle with her palisman.
A wide grin spread across Hunter’s face and he laughed, summoning his staff. The two witches made multiple circles, using construction magic to create a new home for each other. (Y/n) waved her arms and Hunter followed, using his staff to solidify new walls, and create windows and floors. (Y/n) laughed as she danced with her magic, finally freeing all of her hidden potential. She created a new circle and decorated the new cottage with a beautiful, floral roof. 
“See! That was awesome!” She exclaimed as Hunter approached her. 
He laughed with excitement. “I’ve… never created something with magic. I’ve always just trained to fight and defend myself…” He murmured softly, looking at the home he created.
“See, this is exactly why I wanted to keep my magic- it has so many uses!” She motioned to the cottage. “Now we have a new home, together.” 
Hunter blushed lightly. That had been the first time she smile so much since he had come across her. He examined her face again, the beautiful smile that adorned it all. He caught himself staring and looked away hastily, glancing to the home he had built. Home… 
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
The small demon kneeled before the Emperor. 
“Kiki Mora, where is the Golden Guard?” He asked boldly.
The small demon was tempted to growl in annoyance. “We do not know, Emperor Belos,” She confessed. “He has not returned since his last mission.” Thank Titan he hasn’t come back. Hopefully dead.
The masked Emperor gripped his throne with fury. “Find him. And bring him back. I cannot afford to lose my nephew and my best scout.”
Kiki Mora gritted her teeth in utter anger. “Of course, Emperor Belos. We’ll find him.”
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
Weeks had passed since the witches first came across each other. Hunter had grown close to (Y/n) in the little time he had spent with her. 
He glanced at the girl before him in the market, blushing lightly as he admired her features. As he gazed at her, his Palisman chirped. 
“Huh?” As asked, not having heard him through his thoughts. The small cardinal chirped again, asking why he stared so intently at her. Hunter blushed madly, “SHH!! FLAPJACK DON’T SAY THAT!!” He cried out in embarrassment. The palisman sang another question. “Because,” He growled, “Maybe someone else might hear you…” He whispered aggressively. The bird continued to make a frenzy of calls and chirps, gaining (Y/n)’s attention.
She turned around and smiled, “Woah, sounds like Flapjack is excited to be out, huh?” She smiled at the two, her own palisman on her shoulder. 
Flapjack stared dead into (Palisman’s/name)’s eyes, knowing (she/he/it) had understood him perfectly. Hunter glanced at the two palisman and panicked. “CUT THAT OUT!” He cried, flailing his arm in front of Flapjack.
(Y/n)’s palisman glanced up to her and (sound)ed. “Huh? They’re just teasing each other? Well sounds like they’re having fun.” She smiled at the two before continuing through the market.
Hunter sighed with relief and followed her as she walked on. “So… what are we going to get?” He asked, looking around at the market. “Mother Titan… so many of these things are serious violations!” He cried out as he looked around. 
(Y/n) laughed, “Hunter don’t worry. It’s not so bad, we’ll be okay. Besides, we’re just here to get a few things so we can eat later,” She replied sweetly. “And my witch’s wool to repair (Plush’s/name).”
Hunter half smiled. Being with her had somehow become so reassuring, he knew he could do anything as long as she was with him. 
(Y/n) turned to her palisman as it (sound)ed again. She turned back to see Flapjack and Hunter still bickering and teasing each other. (Y/n) laughed lightly while the two ignored her. In the two months she had been alone, she had become certain that she was fine on her own.
She stared again at Hunter. But somehow, he had… grown onto her. She had never let someone get close to her in fear of them turning on her for being a wild witch. Yet, the Golden Guard seemed to be deeply interested in Wild Magic; in her. She blushed, shaking off the thought and going back to checking her stands. Her palisman (sound)ed once more. 
She looked down at (him/her/it). “Shh. Flapjack might hear you and tell Hunter,” She whispered to it. She glanced back to Hunter for the final time, admiring his features once more and smiling to herself. “Besides, he’s just… nice company to have around. He’s helpful- too. Nothing more…”
The two spent a while in the market, looking around, playing by the stands, and buying what they needed. Hunter had become more comfortable with going out, especially to busier places. Although at the end of the day, he always looked forward to going home with (Y/n). He blushed again as he glanced back at her as she tried to bargain with a demon.
A few stands back, a familiar shape caught Hunter’s eye. The male squinted and stared, feeling uneasy. He quickly recognized the shape and grabbed (Y/n)’s hand. 
“(Y/n) we have to go,” He muttered quietly. “I’ll explain on the way but we have to leave now.”
The young witch looked up at the male, ignoring the salesman. She noticed he was staring into the distance and turned to look. (Y/n) gasped, knowing the witches in the market all to well. “Uh- Um… Thank you, here are your snails-” She paid the salesman hastily, grabbed her things, and began to back away from the stand with Hunter.
“Do you think they saw us?” She asked nervously, staring at the ground.
“No, I don’t think they saw us,” Hunter replied as he looked back. “Besides, I don’t think they’d recognize us here with so many-” 
A blast of magic erupted beside Hunter, causing him to crouch forward in defense. The two witches snapped around to look at the scouts before them.
“I KNEW IT!” Cried a small demon, “I KNEW IT I RECOGNIZED THAT ANNOYING VOICE!” She pointed directly at Hunter.
(Y/n) turned to face Hunter who was scowling at Kiki Mora’s statement. 
“GET THEM!!” Kiki shrieked angrily. 
Scouts launched forward causing demons and witches to run in all directions. (Y/n) pulled out her staff and created a circle, casting an abomination spell and pushing the scouts back. 
“LET’S GET OUT OF HERE!” She cried out to Hunter. She grabbed his hand and began to run. The two made their way through the market, racing past empty stands and panicked witches. 
A sudden shot of magic hit (Y/n), causing her to fall. The young witch fell into a stand and slashed her arm with the rough surface. 
Hunter turned to look back and pulled out his staff, standing in front of (Y/n), attempting to protect her. Scouts flooded in from all directions and he eyed them wildly. He began to teleport, hitting random scouts behind the head or zapping spells onto them.
(Y/n) stood up and grabbed her staff, wincing from the pain in her arm. She watched as Hunter fought off scouts and ran forward to join him. 
As they beat the last scout, (Y/n) was swarmed with abomination magic.
“Well, well, who do we have here?” Kiki Mora sang, pulling (Y/n) forward. “Oh! You’re that little wild witch everyone has been after. Belos will be happy to see you’re the one responsible for the Golden Guard’s disappearance,” She smiled as she squeezed (Y/n) with the abomination magic.
A flash of golden light struck Kiki’s head, causing her to fall back. 
“C’MON!” Hunter shouted as he slashed through the abomination trapping (Y/n). He took her hand and pulled her away, tugging her free of her prison. The two ran forward before boarding their staffs and flying away.
Kiki Mora held her head and closed her eyes painfully. She exhaled heavily and looked up to see the Golden Guard leaving. So he’s with a wild witch. The Emperor will be happy to have him back soon…
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
 The two had returned to their home, frightened by the attack. By the time they had returned, the night was near and they got ready to end their day. While (Y/n) stored the few things they had gotten from the market, Hunter had disappeared for a bit to “do something”.
The two witches sat around the fire (Y/n) had created. They watched the flames dance and flicker gently with the gentle breeze.
The male shifted around the fire nervously, wondering if it was a good time to bring it up. He glanced over at (Y/n) and blushed, wondering how she would react.
“Ummm… (Y/n)?” He squeaked, eyeing her nervously. 
The young witch looked away from the fire and met his eyes. “Mhm?” She hummed, waiting for him to continue.
Hunter sighed nervously, reaching beside him. He hesitated for a moment before he presented (plush’s/name) to (Y/n), blushing madly as he did so. “I- I- know we couldn’t find any witch’s wool today in the market so I thought I could fix (plush’s/name) myself…” He looked away nervously, his blush blazing across his face.
(Y/n) gasped and held her plush in her arms. “(Plush’s/name)! (He/she/it)’s good as new!” She smiled at the horrifying stitches barely holding together her treasured plushie.
She launched herself forward and hugged Hunter tightly. The young witch blushed even more, not knowing what she was doing. He hesitantly put his arms around her awkwardly and smiled, accepting whatever it was she was doing. 
After a while, she pulled away, a bright pink dusting her face. “Thank you, Hunter! You don’t know how much this means to me…” She held her plushie in her arms and studied it carefully. 
Hunter smiled. “You said it reminded you of better times, right?” He asked, staring happily at his atrocious work. 
“Yeah…” She murmured, setting the plush in her lap. “Yeah… before everything went bad…” She reached up her arms, setting her hands over dozens of scars and bruises.
Hunter shuffled next to (Y/n). He glanced at her bruises and scars, feeling helpless as he recalled how she had gotten them. This isn’t fair… she didn’t deserve any of that… Why does he think that wild witches are dangerous? She’s done nothing but help me…
“(Y/n)?” He asked nervously as he mustered up a plan.
(Y/n) raised her head to look at him, “Huh? Oh, yeah?” She murmured, somewhat distracted by her plush.
He glanced back at her scars. “Don’t you know how to do healing magic? I mean… do you know any spells?” He asked curiously.
(Y/n) smiled, “Sure I do,” She replied softly, “Here lemme show you.” She took Hunter’s arm and created a circle with her finger. “Like all magic, we start with a circle. Spells pretty much just come from here but… you need to focus on what you want.” She moved the circle to his arm, hovering over the scrape he had received from the fight. “And you just focus and…” He watched with amazement as his scrape disappeared, healing beautifully and completely. “Done.” (Y/n) took her hands away and smiled at Hunter. 
The male blushed slightly, “So you make a circle…” He used his staff to create a small, glowing circle. He breathed nervously, wondering if he should continue.
Hunter sighed and ungloved his hands. He held his staff with one hand and, with the other, he moved the circle to her arm. He brushed his fingertips gently over each darkened bruise, across every scar, slowly healing (Y/n)’s skin. She gasped as she watched all of her pain fade with his touch under the glowing, golden circle. Hunter kept his eyes fixed on her arm as he shifted and moved his hand down, too nervous to look her in the eyes. Despite all the time he had spent with her, he never dared to do more than hold her hand to simply tug her somewhere. He then took her other arm, blushing slightly as he continued to work, refusing to look inter her pools of (e/c).
(Y/n) stared in awe as all of the damage her parents had done disappeared. She had never bothered to heal her own wounds; it was pointless considering she would just receive more from her parents. It was meaningless to try and heal someone so broken, so shattered, so infinitely damaged. (Y/n) had accepted her scars didn’t care whether she remembered how she got them, if she relived every cruel moment. Yet she watched as Hunter erased the reminders of endless pain and suffering she had lived through. Hunter turned her arm over and pressed his fingers gently against a deep gash she had gotten that day. (Y/n) winced slightly but quickly realized that the pain disappeared. Hunter continued to move his hands down as he made every wound fade as he healed her, as he made all of her pain evaporate into nothing. He reached her palm and gently brushed her hand as he lifted his fingers away. 
“There,” He whispered softly. “Like that?” He asked gently, looking up to see (Y/n). 
She stared back at him with wide eyes, her lips parted slightly. Tears had begun to prickle her eyes as she realized what he had done.
Hunter smiled gently, “Oh, uh, missed a spot…” He murmured as he looked at her. He reached up and cupped her cheek, healing the cut her mother had caused. She flinched slightly but froze as his hand touched her face. His hand was warm and gentle against her cold and scarred face. He carefully traced over her, completely erasing the wound that had been embedded into her so harshly. He stared at her cheek as he worked while (Y/n) gazed into his magenta eyes. She felt her heart racing with anxiety, remembering the moment her mother had slashed her. She closed her eyes gently, chewing her lip as she cried silently, finally allowing the tears to flow. (Y/n) melted into Hunter’s touch, forgetting how her parents had hurt her, that not even her mother had held her like that, that her parents had never bothered to heal even the smallest scratch, that they were the ones responsible for each wound she obtained, that they had never been kind to her. Yet, here was Hunter, the Golden Guard, healing every wound she had: healing (Y/n).
Once the wound healed fully, Hunter pulled his hand away and finally shifted his view and looked at her. “There,” He murmured, “Your skin is beautiful, (Y/n). It deserves to heal and so do you. ” 
“I-I, Hunter…,” She stuttered, feeling as if her heart was breaking. No one had ever touched her face the way he had. No one had ever been there when she needed someone. No one had been kind to her… yet Hunter used a spell he could hardly perform to erase her past, to take all of it away, to heal her soul.
She looked at her perfect arms, tracing her fingers over her (s/c) skin. She reached a hand to her cheek and felt the smooth, unharmed face she hadn’t had for years. Tears began to burn her eyes, cascading uncontrollably down her face. (Y/n) looked into Hunter’s eyes, “Oh– HUNTER YOU’RE CRAZY!” She exclaimed, jumping forward and cupping his cheeks. 
“What do you mean cra- HEY- Mmmff!” (Y/n) pulled Hunter in, colliding her lips with his, kissing him repeatedly, not thinking or caring about anything. She felt her face burn with a wild blush, her skin burning like the boiling sea. She had fallen for Hunter long before, and he had finally broken her resistance in showing it. Hunter blushed madly, utterly confused and shocked by her actions. He let go of his staff, causing it to wobble and fall to the ground. The staff faded away and Flapjack flew up, setting himself on the windowsill.
(Y/n) pulled away, “Hunter– you’re insane! Why would you do that- why- why,” She tried to stutter something out through her tears. She wanted to ask, to know why he had stayed with her or why he had healed her. She gave up and kissed him again and again, pecking his frozen lips over and over again roughly. “Why did you do that?!” She exclaimed in bewilderment, tears trickling down her face.
Hunter blushed deeply and smiled sheepishly, “Why did you do that?” He murmured, dazed and mildly confused. The bright red spread to his ears as he asked.
(Y/n) laughed through her tears. She pulled him in again and smothered him in kisses. She continued to peck his lips wildly, never settling on a defined kiss. Hunter smiled as he watched her through half-closed eyes. He reached up and gently wrapped his fingers around her wrist, returning her kisses as she placed them on his lips. Her ears bent back slightly as she connected her lips to his over and over.
“Hunter, you’re insane!” She panted, kissing him again and again. “I can’t believe you!” She pulled his face closer to hers and dug her lips into his, finally settling into a kiss. Hunter closed his eyes and tugged on her wrists gently, wishing he could simply fade away into the kiss. He tilted his head, feeling a thousand new emotions he had never known existed. His heart raced with excitement and joy and his ears bent back as he melted away.
(Y/n) finally pulled away after a long while, “You’re crazy!” She exclaimed smiling. She held his face and stared into his eyes, “First you leave the castle, then you ran away with me, and then we ran away from the scouts, and…” (Y/n) stuttered, feeling tears returning to her eyes. “And then you had the audacity to heal my scars!” She muttered happily. She pulled him into another quick kiss. (Y/n) pulled away, leaving barely any room between her and Hunter “You witch, you’re insane!” She dug her fingers into him and kissed him, smiling through her tears. 
The male smiled through the kiss and pressed himself closer to her, nearly crushing his nose into her face. Hunter kissed her back, finally giving in to his love for her. (Y/n) furrowed her brows as she pressed her lips passionately against Hunter’s. 
(Y/n) pulled away and smiled. She looked into his eyes, creating a magic circle. She pressed it against Hunter’s scarred cheek and waited.
He sighed and shook his head, “Uh-uhh, it won’t work,” He murmured gently. (Y/n)’s circle broke and she looked into his eyes. Hunter pressed her hand against his cheek and looked at her. “That slash was caused by Belos’ outburst… his curse…” He exhaled heavily, “No healing magic can fix it; and it’s too old to be fixed anyways…” He smiled and looked up to (Y/n) who was frowning.
“I wish I could fix it but… It kinda just adds to who you are.” She leaned in and kissed him again. “Hunter?” She asked nervously. 
“Yeah?” He replied, staring into her (e/c) eyes.
“I love you, Hunter.”
The young male smiled, blushing as she reached for his cheek again. “I love you, (Y/n),” He murmured, leaning closer to her. He kissed her forehead sweetly, brushing his lips across her skin ever so gently. “I love you, (Y/n).”
The two kissed again and again under the moon, the soft fire lighting up the two entangled witches. They cuddled and kissed in each other's arms, forgetting the world and all of their scars, forgetting that they didn’t belong anywhere except with each other. 
 ⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
Hunter laid in (Y/n)’s arms. A month or so had gone by since they had sat around the fire. He smiled to himself, feeling ecstasy just from being with her. 
She smiled to herself, feeling him cuddle closer to her. She kissed the top of his head gently, feeling the gentle warmth of the sun overcome them. Despite having beds inside their cottage, Hunter and (Y/n) loved laying in their hammocks outside, in the same place they had spent their first night together.
Hunter hugged her tightly. “(Y/n)?” He asked nervously, waiting for a response. 
“Yeah?” She murmured sweetly, ruffling his hair lightly.
Hunter bit his lip for a moment. “Do you think things will be okay? I mean… Belos keeps saying that the day of unity is near, and the scouts are looking for us…” He broke off as he thought of their last encounter with them in the market.
“I’m not too worried about that,” She said, squeezing him in her arms. Hunter blushed and hid his face in her arms.
“Really? I mean- aren’t you a bit scared of what might happen when the day of Unity comes or if we’re caught?” He asked nervously, squeezing his eyes shut.
(Y/n) smiled and held Hunter close. “I’m not worried about anything as long as we’re together…” She planted a gentle kiss on Hunter’s lips, reassuring him completely.
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
The two witches wandered around Bonesburough carefully. Ever since their last encounter, they had hesitated in going out anymore. However, due to their lack in materials, they were forced to return to town.
“You’re sure we should even be here,” Hunter murmured nervously as he eyed the stands. He squeezed (Y/n)’s hand as he followed her through the market. 
From the distance, a group moved forward, having focused on its target. The leader moved forward carefully, making sure the two witches hadn’t seen them.
Hunter shifted uneasily, knowing they were risking everything by simply going out. He looked around, hoping he wouldn’t see what he feared.
(Y/n) noticed his uneasiness and squeezed his hand gently. “C’mon, don’t worry. Even if they are here, I know we’ll be okay. We fought them off just fine last time,” She reassured him, looking into the male’s bright magenta eyes. 
He smiled at (Y/n), blushing lightly. “Okay,” He murmured, “But I still think we should be careful. You never know what type of witches you can run into in these markets…” He looked around at the products before them, walking through the market close to (Y/n).
Suddenly, Flapjack began to chirp wildly, crying out warnings to Hunter. The male snapped around and saw a group of scouts. 
“(Y/n)!” He shouted, summoning his staff, “THEY FOUND US!” He pushed her forward and the two began to run through the market, causing the same chaos they had before. 
“Oh, not this time you brat!” Kiki Mora shouted, sending a troop of scouts forward. 
Hunter dragged (Y/n) through a maze of witches and stands, turning sharply at each obstacle. “We have to get out!” He cried desperately. I can’t let them get her- not now that they know she’s with me-! 
(Y/n) turned around to see scouts following closely. She created a circle and summoned a wall of rock to erupt from the ground, blocking the way for the scouts. A sudden blast broke through it, knocking the scouts, (Y/n) and Hunter to the ground. 
“OH! NOT THIS TIME GOLDEN GUARD!” Kiki Mora shouted. 
ENDING ONE : A Gentle Goodbye
Hunter quickly summoned his staff, breaking through the ooze. “I don’t think so!” He smiled, grabbing onto (Y/n) and teleporting up through the air. He laughed and stared down at Kiki. “Byeeeee!!!” He waved mockingly before disappearing and zipping through the sky.
(Y/n) held tightly onto Hunter, slowly recovering from their encounter. He landed gracefully in front of their cottage, helping (Y/n) down.
“Oh, Titan! That was close,” He said, holding her hands. Flapjack returned to his normal state and chirped happily.
(Y/n) smiled nervously. “Yeah- we… we just need to be a bit more careful…” She murmured.
Hunter smiled. “Don’t worry. They won’t catch us!” He smiled and kissed (Y/n) gently. “I won’t let them get us, I promise.” (Y/n) smiled sadly, looking into Hunter’s eyes.
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
Hunter slept peacefully in (Y/n)’s arms, holding on tight to her. She laid awake beside him, tears beginning to prickle her eyes as she prepared herself. She carefully rose out of the bed, making sure not to wake up Hunter. He, however, was much too tired to be woken up by anything. 
She stood up and placed her plushie in his arms. Instinctively, he wrapped his arms around it and hugged it closely. (Y/n) smiled and walked away from the bed. She summoned a piece of paper and scribbled down a short note, leaving it by the window. 
(Y/n) grabbed her palisman and looked around, holding back tears as she ran away for the second time, closing the door gently behind her and disappearing into the night.
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
Hunter woke up, feeling the sun brush his skin. He stirred around in the bed, expecting to see (Y/n). He sat up, confused as to why he was holding her plush and not her. 
“(Y/n)?” He called nervously, standing up and looking around. “(Yyyy/nnn)?” He called again, expecting a reply. 
Flapjack flew to the window and called over Hunter. “What’s this?” He asked, reaching for the paper under his palisman. He eyed it suspiciously before looking at it.
Hunter trembled as he read (Y/n)’s handwriting.
 Dear Hunter,
I’m sorry I disappeared the way I did. I didn’t want to but, I knew that if I spoke to you in person you’d never let me go.
Hunter I’m sorry. I’m so so sorry. I’m so sorry. I didn’t want to go but it’s for the best. I can’t be with you. I’m already being followed by scouts. I know you’re running too but you’d be in more danger if you were with me. I’m sorry but I had to do this- for you. I can’t let you be in danger like this. I love you too much to put your life on the line.
You changed my life. You gave me so much hope and love when I was sure nothing waited for me but a grave. Thank you, Hunter- for everything. I’m so sorry I can’t be with you now but… but maybe… Maybe one day in the future, once all of this is over! 
Thank you, Hunter. I don’t know what I’d do without you. Please stay safe. I know I didn’t get to spend much time with you but… I know I really loved you. I still do. I love you, Hunter. Stay safe for me, okay? I’ll find you again one day once this is all over. And thank you for fixing my plushie. I want you to keep it, so you can remember me by something until we meet again. I love you.
Love, (Y/n)
 Hunter felt tears burn his cheeks as his fingers slightly crumpled the delicate paper. Flapjack chirped worriedly as he looked up to him. 
He turned to face the bed, his heart sinking as he looked at (Y/n)’s plush, finally realizing why it had been in his arms.
Hunter swallowed back and controlled his jerking lips. “C-... C’mon, Flapjack…” He said, turning around as tears dripped away. “It’s just us now…”
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
ENDING TWO: Everlasting Regret.
(Y/n) and Hunter were wrapped in abomination goo by a captain behind them. Kiki smiled and glared at the two. “We knew we’d find you here. I had my captain use an illusion spell to hide among the crowd. 
(Y/n) turned around and saw the captain in a white cloak, stepping closer to them. 
“Belos has been looking all over for you…" She sang, staring down at Hunter. “I bet he’ll be thrilled to see you with a wild witch!” 
Hunter gasped, feeling his heart begin to race. “N-no!” He cried, squirming in the goo. “NO! Take me but keep (Y/n) out of this! She hasn’t done anything wrong.” (Y/n) looked back and forth between him and Kiki, wondering what she could possibly do.
Kiki Mora cackled wickedly. “Oh… I’ll be taking you both in-” She laughed again, creating a shield around (Y/n) and Hunter and trapping them inside. “Who knows…” She muttered, turning around. “Maybe a new slot for Golden Guard will open up…” 
Hunter’s breath hitched. He felt his blood run cold as he and (Y/n) were dragged away to the castle.
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
The two witches were brought before the Emperor. He stood before what appeared to be a broken door. He turned as he heard the sound of struggling and saw them. 
“Emperor Belos,” Kiki began, bowing before continuing. “I have brought back the Golden and the wild witch who took him in,” She stated, motioning to the two in the orb. The emperor smiled behind his mask and stepped down.
“Very good Kiki Mora. Thank you for returning them to me,” He stared into Hunter’s eyes. “You are dismissed.” Kiki bowed and left.
The orb broke and the two dropped down. Hunter stood up quickly, trying to hide (Y/n) behind him.
“Emperor Belos I can explain!” He cried out in panic, feeling his heart beat unsteadily. 
“Hunter, I’m very disappointed in you,” The Emperor muttered, taking off his mask. “You disappeared for more than two months, you ignored your duties and…” He glared at the witch behind him. “And you’ve spent all this time with a wild. Witch.” He spat, glaring hastily.
(Y/n) rose up and blocked Hunter from the Emperor’s view. “Leave him alone! He hasn’t done anything wrong!” She shouted, hiding Hunter away.
The Emperor smirked. “You’re right,” He murmured, “And to keep him on the right path I need to take care of something.” He lifted up (Y/n) and set her across the room with his magic. He sighed, shaking his head. “What a shame it had to come to this.” He stretched his arm and began a spell Hunter knew all too well.
“No, no, no!” Hunter cried, shaking his head violently. “Uncle Belos! PLEASE LET HER GO!” He screamed, lunging forward. 
The Emperor snapped around, his arm deforming and stopping Hunter. “Oh, Hunter. Look at what she’s done to you.” He turned back around to face (Y/n). “This is the only way I can make you understand.”
(Y/n) yelped out in pain, feeling her waist numb. “Hunter!” She cried out desperately, staring into his magenta eyes.
“(Y/n)! (Y/N)!!” He sobbed, reaching forward. “(Y/N) I’M SO SORRY!!” Hunter shook his head wildly, watching her die slowly before him.
She began to pant in panic, accepting it was her end. She had always feared petrification. It had been one of the tactics her parents had used to implement fear into her. 
And now, here she was. Being petrified for having fallen for the Golden Guard.
 “Hunter- no- don’t be sorry,” She positioned her arms, hoping Hunter would later understand. “Listen- you gave me everything I could have ever wanted. Don’t be sorry, please- I could have never been so happy if it hadn’t been for you,” Tears burned her eyes for the last time as she watched Hunter.
The blonde male stared at her, his mouth agape in horror. “No- NO- NO!!” He cried, watching her arms freeze in place. He wanted to save her, to disobey every rule he had ever followed, to take her away and forget the castle and the Emperor. Hunter froze, knowing he could do nothing. He had no magic to save her with. “No, (Y/n)!” He cried again. She’s going to die- because of me. Because I couldn’t stay here and do my job. 
She glanced down and smiled bitterly. “Just… promise me you’ll look after (palisman) and (plushie) for me, okay?” She felt her shoulders and neck numb. “And Hunter… Thank you for loving me. I love you too, Hunter.”
Hunter felt his heart sink as he watched her face begin to solidify. “NO! (Y/N)!” He tried to squirm forward and reach her but Belos kept him put. “(Y/N)! (Y/N) I LOVE YOU!!” He cried desperately. 
She smiled as she turned to stone, her tears ending suddenly. Hunter collapsed to his knees, trembling violently, tears cascading down his face. 
The emperor turned and glared down at him, setting his hand down. “Come now… You have much to catch up on, Hunter…” 
Hunter breathed heavily, sniffling as he looked up to (Y/n)’s petrified body, her arms in the form of an embrace and her eyes full of love. 
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
Hunter stared at the petrified witch, reaching for her cold cheek. He rested his forehead on hers. “I’m so sorry, (Y/n)...” He whispered through a broken voice. “This is all my fault- If I hadn’t, ugh...” He sighed, lowering his head more as he felt grief take his strength.
He had returned to the castle hesitantly, longing to return to the cottage he had built with (Y/n). He had managed to take her palisman and plushie. Her palisman had become almost dormant in the days that passed. He sighed again, remembering her face when she saw her plush, wishing he could bring back her glowing, (e/c) eyes.
“I’m sorry, (Y/n). You would still be here if I hadn’t found you. If I hadn’t gotten us caught…” The Golden Guard began to cry, feeling no purpose to his empty life. 
 A/N: YAY IT’S DONE HAHAHA. Omygosh this took such a long time to get out. I’m trying to catch up on the requests but I take too much time writing. I hope you enjoyed it. Also AO3 deleted it a bunch of times while I tried to post it days ago :(
And just like, a little headcanon or whatever, I wanted to make this one-shot a bit more emotional. I hope it worked lol. Also, in this universe, Hunter feels very conflicted about wild magic and witches, especially after meeting the reader. Just a little random thing. Oneshots will continue to come out, surely but slowly. Thank you so much for requesting and reading!

Temporary Secrets and Sharing Scars
--------------------------------------
Hunter (Golden Guard) x Reader
--------------------------------------
Spoilers for Episode 13 of Season 2 of The Owl House: "Every Sports a Storm"
--------------------------------------
TW: Scars, graphic descriptions of wounds, mentions of near death experiences, swearing, childhood trauma, trauma dumping, a lot of talking about injures (like, 1/4 of this is just Y/n talking about their scars to Hunter, both physical and mental), implied child abuse, and child abandonment
--------------------------------------
Summary: When Hunter went undercover at Hexside in an attempt to gain Darius' approval he was not expecting to run into one of the two humans causing chaos around the Isles. You can only imagine his surprise at the fact they stayed silent about his identity, even treating him as a friend. Sure, they had been friendly with him in the past, even trying to get him to join the 'Bad Girls Coven', but this was a step above that. But after Y/n shows him their many scars, he begins to think maybe he should try to return the kindness that made his stomach feel funny and cheeks grow warm.
--------------------------------------
Tumblr media
--------------------------------------
"Puddles!", Y/n called out, running at the griffin with their arms out. Viney stepped aside, smiling as Y/n took her pet into their embrace. Puddles made a noise of joy as she curled her neck around the human.
"You're helping out Willow today, right?", Viney walked to pat Puddles' fur, looking at Y/n with a raised brow. The taller teen grinned and nodded, going to speak before being cut off by Puddles using her head to shove them back into her fur.
"Puddles! I asked them a question.", Viney lightly scolded the pet, laughing softly when Puddles made a squeak in response.
"Sorry baby, but I gotta find Willow. I'll see you later.", Y/n pulled away from Puddles, rubbing her fur as they cooed at her. They waved goodbye to Viney before walking away.
They got a ways away before seeing a familiar red cardinal palisman. They perked up, turning to fully look at the bird and the boy who it was perched on.
They grinned when they recognized the pretty face of Hunter, better known as the Golden Guard.
"Hey there.", their grin widened when Hunter jumped, whipping around the face them. His stance widened slightly, causing Y/n to laugh.
"No need to be on edge, pretty boy!", Y/n teased, putting their hands up. They didn't miss how his ears grew slightly red at the pet name.
"W-why are you here!?", Hunter's voice wavered, and his words made Y/n look at him playfully confused.
"I go here, darling. If anything I should be asking why your here.", Y/n put their hands behind their head stepping closer to the blushing boy. They stopped when they saw him get into a fighting position. "I'm not gonna fight ya'! It's my day off, I'm not gonna ruin it to be pointlessly violent with a pretty boy, even if he works for the emperor."
"Don't say it so loud!", Hunter whisper yelled, placing a hand over Y/n mouth. Y/n shook their head slightly with a chuckle, grabbing Hunter's wrist and pulling his hand away.
"Calm down, bird boy. I wouldn't compromise whatever self-righteous mission your on, it's not in my pay grade.", Y/n held his hand, moving it to lay over the middle of their chest. They giggled when his cheeks became pink and he pulled his hand away, holding it as he stared at them.
"Come on, we got some stuff to talk about and I have about thirteen minutes before Gus appears and rips me a new one for disappearing.", Y/n motioned for Hunter to follow them, beginning to walk towards the end of the stalls. Hunter blinked, frozen for a moment before chasing after them when Flapjack beat him to it.
"Can you climb trees?", Y/n questioned, turning towards Hunter as they stood at the base of a large tree. Hunter shook his head slowly, unsure of the answer.
Y/n grinned, grabbing his hand and interlocking their fingers. They didn't miss how Hunter jumped slightly, or how his mouth was slightly agape when he turned to them.
"Keep a hold of me, Cutie!", Y/n teased as they moved the grip a branch, swinging their legs slightly, and digging their heels into the bark to swinging around and curl their knees around a tree branch. Hunter was in slight awe of their strength, being able to do all that with one hand.
As Y/n tugged at his hand, looking down at him with a raised brow, Hunter gulped. He placed his foot on the tree and let Y/n tug him to sit on the lowest branch next to them, wobbling slightly before Y/n grabbed his waist. The pair had their bodies facing opposite directions, Y/n facing towards the woods and Hunter facing towards Hexside's pathway.
"Don't think to hard, sweetheart. It gets harder to sit up straight when you do.", Y/n's voice was soft, and a squrriel palisman rushed down from the higher branches.
"Ah! Gentian!", Y/n grinned, putting their arm out for the blue palisman to crawl on. The palisman scurried to their other shoulder, sniffing at Hunter as they tilted their head.
"That's Hunter, we've meet him before.", Y/n smiled at the Palisman, chuckling at Hunter's surprised face.
"Your staff was a Palisman this whole time!?", Hunter squeaked, looking at Gentian with wide eyes as the squrriel put one of their paws on his cheek. He looks at Y/n again, mouth agape. "I almost threw them into the boiling sea!"
Y/n shook their head, laughing at him. They put their hand on his shoulder, patting it slightly.
"Owlbert is hella protective of them, homeboy would've caught them. Either way, we're not mad about it. Just don't do that shit again"
Hunter still stared at the Palisman, seemingly frozen. When Gentian reached both of their paws out, cupping his face, he snapped out of it.
"Now, let's talk."
"Yeah, I can't really be mad at you for anything. I can see the good in you, even if you can't personally.", Y/n leaned against the tree, Flapjack sitting on their shoulder. Gentian was one Hunter's head, sleeping in his hair.
"Why though? You have every right to be mad at me, hate me even! I harassed your best friend and mentor, knocked you unconscious, and probably more! So how...", Hunter spoke as he made wild movements with his hands, ending his sentence with his hands on his lap. Y/n laughed softly, placing their hand on Hunter's shoulder. When he looked up his heart raced at their soft smile.
"I like to see the good in people, it helps me analyze motives and pick sides. Your not a bad person, just a little misguided.", Y/n paused for a moment, but continued when Hunter opened his mouth to say something. "Even if you don't agree with my thoughts, that's not gonna change anything."
Hunter shut his mouth and looked down slightly, finding his hands very interesting all the sudden. Y/n voice made him whip his head towards them.
"Wanna see my scars?", Y/n grinned as they spoke, talking about it so casually it made Hunter's brain lag for a moment. He silently nodded, afraid his voice would betray him.
Y/n took their jacket off, showing of a large amount of scars all down their toned arms. It made Hunter freeze, his eyes analyzing the flesh.
"This one", Y/n pointed towards what looked to be a burn scar that covered a large chunk of their shoulder, and it looked freshly healed. "Is from when Lilith accidentally hit me with her magic when I got in the way of her and Eda's fight. You were there!"
Y/n's carefree grin made his stomach sink. How much pain had they been in, how did they stand up mostly fine after taking a blow that caused that much damage.
"Oh! This one is from you!", Y/n laughed as they pulled up their left pant leg, showing a huge bandage. They began unwrapping the bandage as Hunter watched their face, horrorifed. He had hurt them enough to leave a scar?
The wound he was made with made his whole body tense. It wasn't fully healed, still pink and red. Their was a handful of obviously painful blisters, and the look of it alone made him wince. As Y/n began tying to bandage the wound up Hunter began to search for the words to say.
"I-I'm sorry.", Hunter looked away, holding himself slightly as he shook. He hadn't realized just how much the magic he used hurt people, and seeing it first hand made him feel guilty.
"Don't sweat it dude, I've been through worse. Even been impaled? That's true fuckin' pain.", Y/n winced just think about it, not noticing how Hunter whipped his head around at stared at them.
"You've been impaled!? When!? How!?", Hunter looked frazzled, even more confused and horrorifed of Y/n chillness about the topic. Y/n blinked and few times, seemingly thinking.
"It was twice. Once on a mental spike when I was around ten, hit me in the side. Doctor said I was lucky I survived. The second time was here. I was running from Kikimora and some scouts she had with her and fell down a hill. I got a branch in my arm, had to stumble back to Hexside. It was not fun to explain to Viney and Principle Bump.", the longer they went on the more the words become worse for Hunter.
How much shit did this one 16-year-old survive?
"But hey, at least I have cool ass scars to show off now! Mrs. Wolfsburg will tear me a new ass for it, but she yells about everything so who cares.", Y/n grinned cheekily at Hunter, giving him the thumbs up as he stared at them, mouth agape.
"Wait- who's Mrs. Wolfsburg?", Hunter questioned, snapping out of his horrorifed trance to ask a single question. Y/n's face fell slightly, but they huffed and grinned again as they sat up.
"Mrs. Wolfsburg is the lady who runs the house I live in back at the human word. She basically gets a buncha' orphans, gets legal guardianship of them, and gets money from the town for it. I was one of those cases, found on her doorstep when I was, like, five? No note, nothing but the dirty pajamas and shitty old sneakers I was wearing.", Y/n leaned back as they explained, talking with their hands during random moments in their story.
"Oh...", Hunter blinked, seemingly lost in thought. Y/n patted him on the shoulder, getting his attention before he could think to hard.
"Dude, don't overthink it. Yeah, I had a shitty upbringing, I'm not gonna deny it, but it made me stronger. Plus, it helped me met Luz, and by extension, everyone here. Even you.", Y/n poked his chest with a grin as they finished their sentence, messing up his hair as they laughed. Hunter blinked, a familiar feeling filling his stomach and chest.
"How...how do you do it?", Hunter questioned, looking down at his hands. Y/n tilted their head, smiling at the awkward boy.
"If your talking about my attitude, I can't give ya' healthy advice. I just faked it tell I made it, it was all I really could do.", Y/n looked up at the many branches above them, a sad smile on their lips. Hunter watched them, frowning as he gripped his knees. He sighed and bit the bullet.
"Your...so weird.", Hunter mumbled, internally hitting himself for his words. Y/n looked back at him, blinking for a moment before laughing. Hunter looked at them, confused. When they calmed down they spoke again.
"Yeah, I've heard that before. But the way I see it, if your not kinda weird your boring, and your not boring so your weird too. So, as Eda always says, we weirdos have to stick together.", Y/n smiled sleepily at Hunter, eyes closed. Hunter smiled and laughed quietly, feeling strangly comfortable in the other teen's presence after everything was out in the open.
"Y/n!", Gus's voice broke the moment, causing Y/n groan in annoyance and Hunter to laugh at them. Y/n grinned at him and motioned down with their head, towards Gus who was walking down the path.
"I was wrong, it was sixteen minutes.", Y/n teased, sitting up fully and shifting to sit right next to Hunter, shoulder-to-shoulder with him. "Your helping me, Gus, and Willow with the Flyer Durpy."
"I am?", Hunter half-questioned, grinned back at the teen, even if it was a little wobbly. Y/n cracked up, covering their mouth as they nod.
"Hell yeah, pretty boy. I opened my soul up to you, the least you could is help me with my only mission for the day.", Y/n held up quotation marks as they said 'mission', mocking the boy slightly. He blinked and huffed with a grin, looking back at the path as Gus walked away, still calling out to Y/n.
"Alright, I guess I'll help you. But you can't tell anyone who I am, the human told her friends about me, right?", Hunter was being half-rhetorical with his question, but Y/n still nodded with a playful grin.
"You want another Alias? What, that's three now?", Y/n teased him, elbowing his arm softly. Hunter chuckled nervously, smiling at Y/n.
"Flapjack recommend Caleb, but I can't think of anything else." Hunter scratched the side of his face, looking away from Y/n, seemingly embarrassed.
"Well, how about Caleb Passerine? Passerine is a family of birds from the Human world, and Flapjack looks like a Cardinal, one of the birds in the Passerine family.", Y/n spewed out the information quickly, seemingly getting flustered as they spoke more. Hunter stared at them, waiting for them to continue. When the didn't he tilted his head, confused.
"Aren't you going to continue?", he asked, his voice sincere. Y/n smiled at him and shook their head, looking down at Gus as he looks into nearby bushes.
"I'll tell you more later, if you're that interested.", Y/n smiled softly at him, readying thenself to jump down. Before they did they turned to Hunter, kissing his cheek. He turned to them, eyes slightly wide, as their face went hot and they jumped down. "Heya Gus!"
Hunter blinked, a hand on his cheek as he watched Y/n talk to Gus. Flapjack sat beside him, chirping something towards him that made his face go red.
"Q-quiet, Flapjack!"
--------------------------------------
Author's Note: Yo, your local nonbinary author here with their first actual writing post! Of course it's with my favorite traumatized boy, Hunter! Sorry if anyone is out of character, we only really see a little bit of Hunter when he's just being a normal teenager, so I'm not 100% sure how he would act. Also, the ending is suppose to in a way mirror the Lumity cheek kiss, with Y/n being Amity (who kissed Luz's cheek and then rushed away flustered) and Hunter being Luz.

My Covenless Romance TOH Hunter x Reader HC
Golden Guard/Hunter x Guitarist! Reader
Reader is the guitarist of My Covenless Romance.
("My Covenless Romance" is basically the Boiling Isles' version of "My Chemical Romance")
A/N: This took longer than excepted lol
╔═══*.·:·.☽✧    ✦    ✧☾.·:·.*═══╗
• He was on a patrol at the night market.
•Hearing commotion, he rushed to the scene to find.. a crowd of teenagers cheering and..crying? to a band playing on a stage.
• 'What's so "great" about them? Sheesh, just go to the Bard Coven if you wanna watch someone performing or whatever' he prob thought.
•"Authorities and rules are so much better" little jerk most likely thought that too.
• “My Covenless Romance” written in a poster above the stage.
•Intrigued by everyone's hype, he stayed to see what was all about, obviously ONLY and STRICTLY for " investigation purposes". (Nah bestie you aint fooling anyone)
•It'll just be 5 minutes....
•He stayed the whole concert 💀
•rip his duties.
• After the incident, he started going regularly to the night market to "patrol" since he caught sight of insights of "suspiscious witches"
• The next day, he reported catching insights of a suspicious group of witches and for that reason he would patrol the market more frequently.
• LIEESSSSS. LIL EDGY MAN WANTED TO WATCH HIS EMO GROUP PERFORM JSLSIAHAKSHWNAK
• A FANBOY, has MCR shirts, albums and a few posters.
•Kikimora is TIRED of him.
•Belos is too focus on himself to even notice his nephew's new found interest/ maybe hobby??
• Plays their music on his crystal ball and sings his heart out on his room. (obviously with a nullifying sound spell around the room)
•Tried learning a few songs with his guitar. (I have a HC Hunter knows how to play guitar ok?)
• The more he listened to their music, the more he wanted to learn about the band's members.
• Researched on fansites for information about the members such as their name, their positions or roles in the band and the most important one, at least to him, which coven were they part of; and if it wasn't obvious, everyone was from the bard coven. (BARD COVEN SUPREMACY)
• As he passed through all the information, there was only one member left to check.
• Surveying through your information, you were the guitarist, "(Y/N) (L/N) is the youngest of the group with the age of 16, despite their young age, they managed to enter the bard coven without complications, which makes them a really talented witch", if he wasn't interested enough before, OH BOY, NOW HE WAS.
•He likes electric guitars, you play one pretty good, yeah new simp for you.
• Aside from being the guitarist, you were also the lead singer, so sometimes you helped the main vocalist on the chorus, or you had solo parts.
•He loves your singing and watching you perform live makes his days better.
• If by any chance you changed some notes and did a musical arrangement that wasn't part of the original song, or did a random freestyle, he would get goosebumps by how great it sounded. *chef kiss*
• You really captived this boy's heart :,,,) ❤️
•When MCR annouced they were doing a fan-sign, believe me when I say he RUSHED, as if Belos asked him to do it, to bought a ticket for the event.
(If you don't know what a fan-sign, then SEARCH IT UP, YOU LAZY! JK, a fan-sign its an autograph signing album event, used in K-pop; you interact with your fav idols personally, like asking them question, talking or holding hands with them, etc)
•Baby boy was really nervous to meet you, was excited and jumping out of happiness but also felt ill and restless. Just the thought of you knowing his existence was enough to send him to cloud nine.
•Blondie was slaying the “My Covenless Romance” shirt.
•Thank titan he put on his gloves today because his hands were SWEATY.
• On missions and at the coven, he was a professional at dealing with anxiousness and emotions in general; but! this is YOU who we're talking about, the (Y/N) (L/N).
• An internal mess. 🙃
• None of the training, he worked his entire life with, prepared him for such moment.
*At the day of the fan-sign*
• 30 minutes had passed and Hunter was waiting anxiously on the line. (Dude arrived very early. Told kiki to do his shift hshshshs)
• 10 minutes later, it was finally his turn!
• Approching the table, he kneeled to be eye-leveled with the first band member and talk comfortly with them.
• He had a great time chatting with each member; they answered his questions, signed his photo album, some even complimented his stunning mangenta eyes!
• Got flustered by the compliments.
• Other members were playful with him, making him play silly things like rock, papers and scissors or just patted his fluffy hair (with Hunter's permission, of course).
• You were sitted at the last end of the table, making you the last member to interact with (the best for last bestie 💅).
• The nearer he approached, the greater his nerves.
• 'Just one more member left and its my turn with (Y/N), please, don't mess things up Hunter' he thought.
•Would steal glances your way when talking to the member infront of him, he didn't meant to be rude, but you were so gorgeous up close.
(BE PREPARED FOR YOUR COLLEAGUE TO TEASE THE HELL OUT OF YOU FOR THE BOY'S ADORABLE BEHAVIOR, HECK YEAH THEY NOTICED.)
• (Y/N) waved farewell to the fan before them and patiently waited for their turn with the blonde boy that was chattering with their colleague.
• Soon enough, they sliced Hunter's album to (Y/N)'s way, meaning it was finally their turn.
• THE MOST ANTICIPATED MOMENT, HE WAS SCREAMING INTERNALLY.
• 'OH TITAN OH TITAN OH TITAN *screams in grimwalker*'
• His cheeks and ears turning pink, pulse increasing.
• “Hey buddy! What's your name?” you smiled.
• Goldy almost passed out because of that smile.
• “H-Hunter” he stuttered 'FUCK' he mentally cursed.
• "Hunter, nice name!" you said.
•His name rolling out of your mouth has to be the best thing that has ever happened in his life.
•"Thank you" he said, feeling butterflies in his stomach.
•“So tell me Hunter, did the other members teased you out much?” You asked while signing his album. Him staring wide-eyed.
• "Uh, I saw how much they teased you and got flustered by their comments, *sigh* Ah these guys, I'm gonna punish them after this" you said in a friendly way, an adorable pout adorning your lips as you finished your statement.
• YOU WERE WATCHING HIM THIS WHOLE TIME AND WAS WILLING TO DEFEND HIM FROM THE OLDER MEMBERS??!?!!?? ...yep, this gotta be a dream, no way its real, too good to be true.
• "No, no, no! Its okay, seriously, it wasn't THAT type of teasing, but thanks for your concern" he shifted his fingers under the table.
• "Hmmmm still gonna punish them though" both chuckled.
• You looked way more softer than what you looked on stage being all badass and hot af with your guitar with a face that shouted you could dominate the world if you pleased, but what he had in front of him was just a charming, lovable young witch. UwU moment
•"Say, I gotta admit your scar its pretty cool" you said pointing your finger to your left cheek, to mimic the side where the boy's scar rested.
• Reaching out his hand to touch it, his face reddened. A tiny "thank you" leaving his mouth, showing a small smile.
•Not wanting to trigger a possible bad memory (which was lol) to the ash-blonde-haired boy, the young guitarist didn't push more into the topic, despite being curious on how he got that.
• "I was wondering, if you weren't in the bard coven, what other coven do you think you would've joined instead?" Hunter asked.
• "I'm glad you ask, no one had really made me that question, interesting, yet I do have an answer, quite an odd one to be honest" you said.
•"I probably don't look like the type, however, I would've liked joining the Emperor's Coven, seeing witches like the Golden Guard fighting and being all mighty makes me kinda jealous sometimes; I've never talked to him but he seem quite an appealing guy " (Y/n) sheepishly answered.
• Hunter.exe has stopped working.
• "Wow.. that's really shocking" forgive him for replying lamely, his poor brain was melting y your answer.
•" Hahaha, I know right?! Are you interested in a particular coven or are you already in one?" you asked.
• "ME? Of course not! I'm still checking out and making up my mind" he replied. No way he was gonna tell you he was the Golden Guard, not yet...
•" Well, if by any chance you choose Bard, we'll be waiting for ya" you winked.
• Thank titan he was already on his knees because his legs gave up.
•"Then, what got you into MCR, Hunter?" you asked
•"Definitely by the band's music, your albums and singles are amazing! OH! And your guitar's solos? ARE mind-blowing and you look so breath-taking while playing. I gotta admit, after a while I just listened to MCR albums only because of you-" he blurted out.
•'Oh shit....' both hands flew to his mouth.
• (Y/n)'s cheeks turned red.
• "I-I'm sorry, I didn't realize unt-" he said agitatedly.
•”Hey- Hey! It's okay! I really appreciate your support, I..I like it" you shyly confess.
•The manager behind you made a signal meaning time had run out.
•”Aww dang it! Time ran out, it was nice meeting you Hunter” you offered him both your hands.
•“Likewise (Y/n)” he said taking both of your hands.
• Interwining your fingers with his, earning a gasp from the magenta-eyed boy, his face and ears becoming as red as a tomato.
•'So adorable! just as I expected' you thought.
•“Let's see each other at the next fan-sign!” you said while wiggling your hands with his.
•"Yeah! Sure!" he exclaimed, letting go his hands, you gave him his album and bid farewell to each other.
• He couldn’t sleep that night, he still felt your hands grabbing his.
• A blushing mess.
• He couldn’t wait for the next concert and fan-meeting. 🥰
Bonus:
• After the fan-sign, the band's members were all over (Y/n) asking them questions about the charming blond boy. (Yep, they watched the whole thing)
• Teasing (Y/n) to no end saying the blondie would be their future partner. (Y/n) secretly didn’t mind. 😳
• Everyone received a well deserved punishment from (Y/n) .☺️

Hunter x Clawthorn Reader
Summary: Hunter comforting you after loosing your brother and getting trapped in the human realm
Tumblr media
TOH Spoilers
"I think there's a way out!" Willow said pointing at the portal door and motioning everyone to head towards it, You all start running but you and Amity notice Luz still standing. "Luz come on" You try to pull on her arm "Everyone, Eda I-I can't just leave them" she looks back her eyes tearing up "Luz please!" Amity grabs her hand her own tears threatening to fall. You three then run towards the door, Jumping across a broken piece of the bridge.
Once everyone is in front of the portal, Hunter opens the door to rain on the other side "It's human rain, It's ok" Gus says and goes through the portal followed but Hunter and Willow. "Luz?" Amity looks back to see Luz trying to hold the portal with some vines "Luz what are you doing?!" you question ready to run towards her "I-I have to get Eda. We'll find a way back to you" She tries to reassure you but you run towards her "Y/N NO!" Hunter yells for you but you keep running towards luz "Go Y/N! go go go! I-I can't hold the portal much longer!" She yells at you making you stop at your tracks. King then is pulled off of her shoulder by the collector "KING!" you both yell and reach to hold onto him "King! you promised you'd play with me, You pinky swore" the collector started pulling onto king harder "Luz! Y/N!" Amity then started running towards you "We gotta stick together. We gotta stick together" Luz looked between you and king "Just don't let go king alright? We-we're gonna protect you just-" you said, your eyes tearing up.
"I'm sorry, not this time. But I can keep you safe" King said "no!" Luz's tears started to run down her face "King..." Your own tears threatening to fall "Luz, Y/N I'm so happy I had you two as my big sisters" And with that King uses his titan yell, sending you all back into the portal. "NO, KING!" Luz gets up and runs towards the door only for it to close in her face, when she opens it again she's met with the abandoned shack, she tries to close and open the door again in hopes of the portal opening but with no use. She just stands there with a blank expression. Gus then starts crying, falling to the ground as you all process what just happened.
"no" You come back to your senses "No no no no, I-I promised mom I'd protect him" Your tears were falling to the ground as you tried to stand up but stumbled and fell back. Hunter then came up to you "hey it's gonna be ok just calm down" he tried to reach for your hand but you pulled away trying to stand up again "NO! You don't understand, I have to get him back!" He looks at your broken expression then back at Gus who Willow is trying to comfort.
"Hey, Look at me" he gently places his hands on your shoulder, when you look up you see him trying to smile with tears at the corner of his eyes "we'll get them all back don't worry, but for now we have to rest" You choked on your sobs then reached out to wrap your arms around his torso, burying your face in his chest as you cried.
After a while and everyone calmed down a little Luz reached for Amity's hand and started walking "come on, we can't stay under the rain for too long" she then led you to a house which you assumed is her home and knocked on the door. Hunter had his arm wrapped around Gus's shoulder trying to comfort him, while he held onto your hand with the other. Once the door opened it reveled a woman "Hey mom, I'm back" Luz said her voice breaking. they're right, You will get back home. But for now you needed to take a break cause that was not the end.

1 | The First Day
Author's note: EHEHEH CHAPTER 1 LETS GO
I copied and pasted this from the wattpad so formatting it right was such a pain,, anyways enjoy my brain gunk!
Words: 2,381
Song credits: Remember Me by Miguel
Edited: ☑
Masterlist
"I can't believe you actually made it"
I laughed, "Wow, Jaina, now I know how much faith you had in me."
"Not like that and you know it!"
"I'm so proud of you, (Y/n)!" Irina wrapped her arms around me, squeezing me tight.
I squeezed back. "I can tell, you're actually giving me a gub."
"This is a once in a lifetime opportunity," she said, letting go. "Savor it."
"Oh trust me," I said, putting the last few things in my bag. "I savored every second."
"Okay girls," we heard my dad from the other room. "Let him finish packing, he has to leave soon!"
Jaina yelled back, "We're giving him emotional support!" To which we heard him laugh at.
Throwing my bag around my shoulder and grabbing BunBun, my white rabbit palisman, the three of us head out to the main room where my dad was sitting on the couch, waiting for us.
Once he noticed us he stood up and walked over to me, putting his hands on my shoulders. "Wow, I can't believe my baby's going to his new life in the Emperor's Coven, and only at 14 years old." He started tearing up. "I'm so proud of you." He gubbed me, holding me tight like I might slip away.
I gubbed him back, "Hey, don't talk like it's goodbye, I'm just joining the best coven in the Boiling Isles, not signing my life away."
He laughed, "Yeah, yeah you're right." He let go, wiping away a few tears. "Have fun, and show Emperor Belos how powerful of a witch you are."
I smiled, "I'll put on a show like he's never seen."
Suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my wrist. Looking at it, it was the alarm I set on my watch to head out to the castle. I turned it off and walked to the door. Looking back, I smiled. I know I was the one who said this wasn't goodbye, but damn did it feel like it. I took in as many details of the three most important people in my world as I could.
My father, Dailin Pillera, a tall, light skinned man with blue hair and brown eyes, with a beard of course. He raised me all on his own, says that my mother, whoever she was, didn't care about me and left him with me all alone, but he didn't need her. He's an amazing father, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
And my two best friends, Irina Erima and Jaina Walker. Irina has long, purple hair and light purple eyes, with tan skin, and she's a little shorter than me - both of them are actually. Irina was always the more talkative one but she balances out me and Jaina. Jaina has short, black hair and green eyes with the palest skin I have ever seen. She can talk your ear off if given the chance, but she's always been more of the quiet, nerdy type with a bit of hardworking handyman mixed in.
They've been with me through thick and thin for the last few years. It's going to be weird not seeing them as often.
"Well," I said. "Guess I should head out. Don't wanna be late for my first day."
The three of them ran up to me, gubbing me one last time in a group gub.
"Please be safe."
"Don't forget us!"
"Teach that coven about the beauty of gubs."
I laughed. "Yeah yeah yeah, now seriously." I wiggled out and stepped away, opening the door. "I have to go."
I looked at them one last time.
"I love you guys."
"We love you too!"
I smiled again, watching as BunBun turned into a staff. I sat on it, flying away towards the castle where I would start my new life.
As I was flying I looked down at the Boiling Isles. It all looked so small from up here, yet at the same time, seeing the Titan made me realize just how big it is - how much life has grown on its corpse. I wonder if it had any friends, any family. What's life like for a titan? How did it die? Did it choose to give life to everything we have now, or was it just a happy coincidence? Does it really still have consciousness after all this time?
Can Emperor Belos even talk to it?
I shook my head, trying to shake the thoughts away. I shouldn't think of the emperor in such a way. I mean, who am I to question him? I should focus my energy on the journey ahead of me.
A new life awaits me in the Emperor's Coven. I wonder how many friends I'll make. What if I meet the Emperor, or even the Golden Guard? I heard there'll be a new one appointed soon, I hope I get to at least see them once.
What will I do if I meet Lilith? I've looked up to her and the Emperor my whole life; she's become my idol. What if I trip in front of her? I'm definitely going to embarrass myself- I should just head back now-
I shook my head again. I really just need to stop thinking sometimes.
It hasn't even been a day but I miss my friends. I miss my dad.
...
I miss my sister. I miss playing Grudgby with her, even if she always went super easy on me since I was younger.
I took a shaky breath in. This is for her.
In hopes of distracting myself - and honoring her memory - I started softly, and painfully slowly to anyone listening, singing a song I wrote for her way back when to myself to try and make the flight to the castle go quicker without my mind spiraling.
Remember Me
Though I have to say goodbye
When I looked back, I couldn't see my little neighborhood anymore.
Remember Me
Don't let it make you cry
Can I really survive in the emperor's coven? Just mentally, without my friends?
For even if I'm far away I hold you in my heart
I have to. If I can't, I'll never be strong enough to protect the ones I love.
I sing a secret song to you each night we are apart
But, even still...
Remember Me
Though I have to travel far
This is taking a lot longer than I would've liked.
Remember Me
Each time you hear a sad guitar
I'm surprised I was able to find a way to take my few instruments with me.
Know that I'm with you the only way that I can be
I'm leaving everyone I love behind for a hope, not even a promise. I'm a horrible person.
Until you're in my arms again
No, they were all happy for me and supportive. I have to go through with this, for them.
For her.
Remember
The castle was suddenly in view.
Me
I flew down to the entrance, looking up in awe at how big it is. As I landed, BunBun changed back and sat on my shoulder, looking with me. Suddenly, a coven scout walked up to me.
"Are you here as a new recruit?"
I stiffened, and nodded, saluting. "(Y/n) Pillera from Hexside, 14 years old."
The scout laughed. "I didn't ask for your life story. Go over there where you see the other recruits lined up. We have a lot right now so you'll all be going through basic training together." They pointed to a line of people.
I nodded. "Thank you." I got in line and the first thing I noticed was that I was the only kid. Everyone else was a lot taller than me and looked a lot older, it made me anxious.
The person in front of me turned around and looked at me. They smiled. "You joining too?" I nodded. "I'm Steve. He/him." He held out his hand.
I blinked, looking at it. Hesitantly, I took it, shaking it. "(Y/n), he/him."
Steve smiled again. "Nice to meet you, (Y/n). What's someone as young as you doing joining the emperor's coven?"
"Well..." I thought for a moment about my answer. "I didn't wanna give up practicing all magic."
He nodded. "That's a good reason. I'm in it for the power. Guess we're kind of similar in that way, huh."
I smiled. "Yeah, I guess."
As Steve and I kept talking, I learned he has a younger half-brother at home who seems really proud of him. I told him about my family and friends at home too. We also talked more about our interests, and even though there are quite a few differences between us, we still got along pretty well.
Soon enough we made it to the front of the line. Steve finished his sign in thing, and I was next.
"Name?"
"(Y/n) Pillera."
"Ah, the child." The scout sounded bored and it made me kind of uncomfortable. "Wrist."
I held out my wrist and the scout gave me my sigil. I looked at my wrist with wide eyes. It's right there, this is really happening.
I'm in the emperor's coven.
"The scout to your left will take your things and the scout ahead of him will take your palisman."
I looked at the scout confused. "My palisman?"
The scout sighed, clearly annoyed. "Only the absolute best scouts are allowed to have a staff, let alone a palisman. Not even the covenheads have palismen, kid."
"Oh... Okay." I stepped away from the table to not keep up the line and looked at BunBun. She looked back up at me with a sad look in her eyes that broke my heart.
There has to be a way for me to get through without having to give BunBun up, but before I could think of one, the person behind me was shoving me forward. I gulped.
"It'll... It'll be okay, BunBun. I'll get you back, don't worry." I did my best to give her a reassuring smile and she gave me sad, but hopeful eyes.
I walked up to the first scout and handed him my bag. Then, I walked up to the next scout. I gave BunBun a gub. "I'll see you soon, okay?" She nodded and turned into a staff. I handed her to the scout and walked towards the small crowd of the newest recruits. I tried to find Steve but I couldn't see above everyone so looking quickly became pointless.
Then I noticed everyone giving me weird glances and whispering. I listened in to see what they had to say about me.
"Is that really him? The kid prodigy?"
"Yeah. Honestly, he looks pretty weak, I bet he doesn't last a week."
"Isn't he like 14 or something? Why'd they let an actual child in?"
"But did you hear? He's not the only one. Apparently the emperor's nephew is joining too, and he's only 14 too."
"Emperor Belos has a nephew? I figured he didn't have any family left."
Emperor Belos has a nephew? And he's my age? And he's joining the emperor's coven too?
"Hey, fellow new recruits! Ready to train to be the best?" A voice said, seemingly way too excitedly for the rest of the crowd. That voice though, it sounds pretty young.
Is it him?
I followed the source of the voice, trying to find him. When I finally weaved through the crowd enough, I found a pale blonde boy, a little taller than me. He had a nervous smile on his face, looking up at the other recruits. "I... Don't know how to talk to people, do I?" He sighed, his face dropping.
I laughed a bit at his realization. "Yeah, you don't." He looked at me, surprised. I walked up to him and held out my hand. He flinched a bit which was weird, but I didn't think much of it. "But, I can teach you. I'm (Y/n). You must be the emperor's nephew everyone's talking about."
"Oh, you've heard about me through them?" He looked down, almost sadder than before.
"Yeah, but I'm not really one to listen to gossip unless it's from a reliable source." I moved my hand out a bit more, trying to get him to shake it.
He looked up at my hand and finally shook it, looking back up at me. "I'm Hunter. You said you're (Y/n)? Rumor has it you're some child prodigy."
I looked away embarrassed, taking my hand away and putting it behind my neck. "I don't think I'm that good."
"Well, you must be," Hunter started. "You made it all the way to the emperor's coven, it's not easy to get here."
I blushed. "I- well- stop it."
Hunter chuckled a bit. "Of course you can't be as good as me, but I'm sure you're almost there."
I smiled in amused disbelief. "Okay seriously. Stop it."
He laughed.
"So," I started, "did you have a palisman too?"
He looked almost offended. "What? No, those things are dangerous!"
"Dangerous?? How are they dangerous?"
"Well duh, they're made from wild magic."
I considered his point for a moment. "Yeah sure, counterpoint, they're a cute little friend who helps you use stronger magic!"
"Helpful or not," Hunter said, crossing his arms across his chest, "they're still made out of wild magic. Still dangerous."
I rolled my eyes. "You're just jealous you don't have one and I do."
Hunter was about to retaliate, but a coven scout started talking before he could.
"Alright, recruits! Welcome to your new lives. Today starts your basic training. We'll start easy with some witches duels to see where everyone stands, and, since we have a special recruit this time around, Emperor Belos will be watching your training himself!"
Immediately there were gasps and insecure murmurs within the crowd, me and Hunter included.
I was definitely nervous that Emperor Belos would be watching, to say the absolute least.
The coven scout continued talking. "If you'll please follow Trisha over there, she'll lead you to the arena!"
The crowd started moving before me and Hunter, and in fear of losing him like I lost Steve, I grabbed his hand so we would stay together. It took him a second, but he held it and we made our way to the arena with the rest of the crowd.
Tag list: (empty) (ask to be added!!)

Yandere: I wasn't STALKING you. I was just educating myself on your lore. Calm down.
Okay, but imagine Hunter (TOH) sputtering out an excuse like this when you catch him spying on you. He trains himself to identify your voice over the din and leaps from his hiding place behind the gaudiest kiosk in the Night Market.
Depending on whether this is pre-Hollow Mind, Hunter might throw up a rambling explanation for how Emperor Belos assigned him to a reconnaissance mission.
"You're a person of interest." He keeps his golden mask securely fastened to his face, hoping that its show-nothing design will render you oblivious to the profuse sweat now dripping down his uniform.
A pang of fear stabs Hunter in the gut as he hears his own words and struggles to rip the wobble out of his voice. "To Emperor Belos, I mean!" The slight crack and fluctuation of intonation, embedded deeper in his memory than anywhere else, fills him with a cold awareness of the smallest things.
Hunter stops his arm before it satisfies an itch under the hem of his glove. The leather, once a gleaming sign of prestige, now traps his wrist and palm in a clammy prison.
He looks away, as if anyone else in this world could seize his attention more, and reaches out to wave his hand up and down a few times. "So, resume your daily activities, citizen." Hunter leans against the side of the kiosk, props one heel over the other, and crosses his arms in an attempt to appear suave.
"I'll ... I'll be here."
As you scout another stall for cheap contraband, Hunter lays his full weight on the kiosk and accidentally pushes it into a steep bend in the road. He saves himself with a stumble and looks from you to the fleeing kiosk, then sprints after it, cloak flaring, yelling at the kiosk to "give me a break!"
Wheels snap and pots shatter in a crash that summons from the night an immediate uproar.

hiii!!! can i rq headcanons of cute habits hunter has when he's in a relationship?? if that makes sense lmao😭 :) tyvm!!! <3
hi!! yes this totally makes sense! (Can't decide if reader is human or witch, so probs just read it as whatever! Might be hinted human tho! Im sorry!)
so imagine this, you're sitting in the Noceda's basement with Hunter and Gus, and you're in the middle and Hunter is to your right and Gus is sitting to your left, and Hunter smoothly slides his hand next to yours and interlocks your pinkies. UGH. He just does that whenever you're next to him like sometimes he doesn't even know he does it, yk?
He fidgets alot, like ALOT so sometimes he just grabs your hand and started cracking your knuckles (after you taught him how to do it after he saw you doing it). Like you could be having a conversation w Eda in the Owl House and Hunter is sitting right next to you and he just grabs your hand and just starts cracking your knuckles 😭
He just stares at you with heart eyes, he's so whipped, like you could be working w/ Luz and Luz points to him and giggles because he looks so cute while looking at you!
 When you are also in the basement in the human realm and have your earbuds in he leans in closer to try and hear your favorite song and then you catch him humming to it while he's working on sewing 😍
He's just the sweetest boy ever to you, he's so nervous around you too, so 80% of the time he just giggles when he sees you, not in a mean way, like a nervous way!
he just is always grabbing your hand like no acceptions. Sleeping? No, Hunter has a grab on your hand. Cooking? No. Hunter still has a hold on your hand. Its so cute though that you let it slide LMFAO.

Hiiii!
May I request a Hunter x middle child! Blight! Reader headcannons?
Summary: The reader is a Blight, and also the middle child who is often forgot about and ignored by both the Blights and everybody else. They’re not as famous as the Blight Twins or Amity, and they spend most of their time inventing abominations to TRY and impress their parents
Reader also has a similar personality to ROTTMNT Don, but I’m not sure if you’ve ever watched it so you can just ignore this bit if you haven’t :)
Tumblr media
A/n: The way this is formatted seems like it was for a one-shot request, but you said headcannons. I'm sorry if this isn't what you wanted and I'll redo it if so. Also, I've never seen any tmnt things so sorry about that.
-Bro he GETS you.
-The feeling of your "guardian" (If you can even call them that) not paying attention to you. So thanks to Belos's, Odaila's (and Alador's to a lesser extent) "A+ parenting." Y'all both have parental issues.
-Hunter was never the best at comforting but if you are upset with your family problems he'll do what he would want people to do when he's upset. Which doesn't always work but he tries.
-Amity is a pretty good sibling she's not the best mainly when she was mean (Her green hair era.) But bro Hunter hates her even if she's trying her best.
-When Ecilpse Lake happens he is like 50 times meaner. Like dude even though she's not trying to upset you or anything, Hunter is pissed off because of any time she made you even slightly sad.
-When he learns you invent stuff he BEGS you to show him.
-Like even if you agree the first time he asks he counties to ask and you are like "Hunter I'm going to show you-"
-Also he complements them so much! He loves inventions of any kind, magic-based or not, he likes to learn how they work.
-If you tell him he is so invested. Like you can be talking for hours and he is fully listening the entire time.
The dude is so in love with you-

What about platonic yandere hunter/goldengard so y/n find hunter having a breakdown in the castle halls so they decided to calm him down and take him to his room and hunter becomes very protective and possessive of y/n and starts to see them as a parent or older sibling
Forgot to mention that y/n is older then hunter and sorry if my English is not that good I’m still working on it
Going with older sibling :)
Also your English is amazing A+
~~~
"Hunter? Hunter." You state softly. Taking off his mask you push your hands through his messy hair gently moving it to the side to looks for any wounds he could've gotten under the mask. His magenta eyes flicker up to stare at you as you call his name. Their wide in panic and you had to keep your hands from shaking. He needed you to be the adult right now. "Deep breaths Hunter. Deep breaths." You state seeing how much he was shaking. He nods but gasps with each breath he takes, a little strained whistle escaping his gap teeth. Staring at him not sure what to do you look around the hallways before swallowing.
Pulling him into a tight hug the Golden Guard begins sobbing against you as you just hold him in your arms. You close your eyes and begin to softly hum that song you know he likes. Shifting your cloak so it's around him picking him up, you slowly start walking him to his room when he didn't object. He clings to you tightly and you move quickly, he needed to be someplace private and someplace quiet.
"I'm sorry I'm sorry I failed I failed..." He repeats over and over but you just shake your head softly as you keep him close. He's lighter than you thought you think as you carefully adjust him. He hadn't failed, you were ambushed and what happened wasn't anyone fault. The Emperor would be angry but you were older and wiser and had been in the coven longer, you'd report what happened and take the blame for the team. Hunter may have been higher ranked but you were older and second lead. This was no one's fault but the Emperor needed someone to blame.
"You didn't fail Hunter. You don't need to be sorry." You keep repeating slowly before you finally make it to his room. You help him remove his armor until he's just in his clothes underneath and you stay with him until he passes out on his bed. Pulling up his blanket you close your eyes hand rubbing his back in soothing circles to help him stay calm.
Emperor Belos would not be pleased...
~~~
Your double shift had just ended for the day. You'd been getting more and more of those as of late and you had a feeling it was the Emperor's way of punishing you. He hadn't killed you so at least there was that.
Walking down the hall you stretch. It was a long shift and it left your body sore and mind tired. Heading back to your room to get some well deserved rest you stop when you see some of your friends on shift. Ones you hadn't been able to catch up with for awhile.
"Hey." You greet tiredly as you lean against a wall to stop and talk to them. Your mask hung from your belt and they removed their own masks to stop and chat with you. As Steve hands you a rations bar you smile and begin eating it greatful. You had missed lunch and were starving. Beginning to laugh as Steve said a joke they all suddenly passed dead silent. As they stiffen and straighten some reaching for their masks you feel a hand grip your wrist.
"What are you doing out of formation?" A familiar voice questions and turning you see Hunter. You smile at him and tuck the ration bar away for later.
"Oh Golden Guard." You greet knowing how he hated anyone calling him his real name when it came to the field. "These are my friends. I was just saying goodnight." You explain quickly. You hadn't seen Hunter since his episode but you'd kept your word and stayed silent about it. You doubt even Belos knew what happened that day. Simply taking your word and leaving it at that since you were loyal and had never lied to him before.
"You have a mission with me. They need to get back in uniform and go back to work before I report them for treason." He states harshly making you blink in surprise.
"Woah Hunter thats-" You start but he turns sharply. His mask is angled at you and for once you feel scared of the man behind the mask. Something that had never happened before.
"It's Golden Guard." He retorts harshly and you nod feeling guilty at saying his real name. But still you were exhausted, you needed to rest. You were in no condition to do another mission and your friends clearly agreed.
"Respectfully Golden Guard Sir.(Y/N) just pulled a double shift you can't make them do another mission they need to get some-" One tried to plea your case as you were incapable of saying no to Hunter but he cuts them off.
"Talking back is insubordination. I suggest you stick to your lane soldier. (Y/N) and I are higher ranked than any of you and one wrong word to Emperor Belos could stain your reputation permanently." He threatens as his grip on your hand increases. You hiss and he pauses but remains firm.
"Hunter enough." You scold trying to make him stop but he simply tugs at your arm pulling you along. As you stumble down the hallway his grip never loosening you look back at your friends. They look away placing their masks back on before going on with their shifts. Steve giving you an apologetic shrug before you turn a corner and loose sight of them.
"Hunter?" You question but he remains silent. "Hunter." Stating his name instead of asking it he glances back at you, golden mask emotionless.
"The Emperor wants you on another mission. If you come with me you can rest on the air float while I drive. Otherwise you might get assigned somewhere where you could get hurt." He admits quietly and you hum rubbing at your eyes.
"Thankyou but you know treating my friends that way wasn't kind. You could have just told me." You hum and he simply swallows before looking away.
"I'm looking out for you." Is all he states and you nod letting yourself get dragged along. You notice the way his grip tightened when you said friends but you let it be. Hunter was just protective right? There was nothing to worry about...
Right?

Two Short trans! Hunter Oneshots
So uh the spirit of transness hath possessed me and I typed these in a fit of passion. In the first one, we have a transmasc Hunter and in the second we have a transfem Hunter. It's pretty much all fluff. I projected hard on Hunter in the first oneshot and Y/N in the second oneshot, so Y/N is very subtly implied to be transmasc in the second oneshot. Should be easy to ignore though.
Uh yeah! Let's go!
***
No.1: Safe (transman!Hunter)
  In which you inform your boyfriend that you do indeed see him as your boyfriend
  I furrowed my eyebrows as I sat by him in his new bedroom at Darius’s house. He was paler than ever, and where his armor usually sat was a white bandage that wrapped around his ribcage tightly.
  “Hunter- you can’t wear that anymore.” I sighed, squeezing his hand.
  “Relax (Y/N). I’m just gonna wear it until I can get my armor back, it’ll be fine!” He said with a bit of a gasp, tightening the bandage further.
  “No! Look, I’m sorry, but this is crushing your lungs! Have you seen your complexion?! Why do you even need something tight there?” I exclaimed. 
  He faltered, looking over at me nervously. “I told you. I’m…I’m used to it, it makes me feel…safe?”
  “Hunter…” I whispered, putting the pieces together. “No pressure, but are you…um…hiding something?”
  “No, no! No I’m not-”
  “Because if you hypothetically needed to hide something…there’s a thing called concealment stones. And I-ahem- may or may not have a spare to give you while you’re trying to blend in as a non-armor wearing citizen.” I coughed.
  “...Oh?” He murmured, looking over to me.
  “Yeah.” I nodded, fishing the red crystal out of my bag- I had been waiting for a reason to use it, and this certainly looked like one to me.
  I pressed it into his hand with a smile. 
  “Thanks.” He whispered. “Can you ah…not tell anyone about…well. What I’m hiding?”
  “Duh. You’re Hunter, regardless of your fuckin’ chest shape. And Hunter is a pretty awesome dude.”
  He smiled and slipped on the red crystal necklace. “Thanks (Y/N). And this…doesn’t change anything then?”
  I scoffed. “Of course not. I don’t frankly care what gender you were assigned at birth. You’re a dude. A man. A boy who I love very much. I just would prefer that you don’t damage your spine is all.” I said, punching him in the arm lightly.
  He beamed, taking my hand. “I love you.”
  “Likewise, dork boy. No matter what.”
***
No.2: Something to Tell Ya (transgirl! Hunter)
In which your boyfriend might not be your boyfriend
  “Hey (Y/N)...” Said Hunter quietly as we stood in the human mall. “Can I ask you something…weird?” 
  I raised my eyebrow. “Er…what? Good weird or bad weird?”
  He shrugged. “I…don’t know?”
  I looked over at the rest of our group as they chattered loudly. “Is it something we should say in private?”
  “Probably, but I just…need to tell someone. Like, now.” He whispered. “And you’re my partner, and you know a little bit more than me about…um…women’s clothes.”
  I nodded hesitantly. “Do you want to talk alone here in the mall? I can tell the group that we’re just…exploring or something, would you like that?”
  He nodded, squeezing my hand nervously.
  I frowned, looking over to Luz. “Uh, Luz, let Camila know that Hunter and I will be right back, okay?”
  “Okay-”
  “Great, bye.” I smiled and pulled Hunter towards the single use restrooms.
  “Okay…that’ll do, pig.” I said, locking the door behind us.
  “Thanks.” Hunter said, still quiet. “I’m sorry about this, (Y/N), really, but I guess I just feel so sick of not saying things…and I know I can trust you.”
  I put an arm around his shoulders, pulling him close. “You can tell me anything, you’re safe here.”
  He hugged me back, leaning against the doors. “So…well..this is weird! But um…um. I think…I think I’m a girl!”
  I raised an eyebrow. Not quite what I expected, but not unsurprising.
“Oh. Cool.” I smiled. “Do you want me to call you she/her?”
  “You’re not mad?” He- er, they whispered.
  “Of course not. I love you. When you’re happy, I’m happy.” I smiled.
  “Then uh…yeah. I’d…like that a lot.” She murmured, eyes watering.
  “Hey.” I said softly, hugging her again. “Is that why you wanted to tell me now? Would you like some help…getting some new clothes?”
  She wiped her eyes and nodded. 
  “Cool. I’d love to help you!” I grinned. “Now I can use all my wonderful fashion knowledge! So…do you know what you're comfortable with?” 
  She shook her head. 
  “Hm, okay…I can work with that.” I nodded thoughtfully. 
  “Are you sure you’ll still wanna…date me?” She said quietly, tugging at the sleeves of her sweatshirt. “If I’m…you know, not a guy?”
  “Jokes on you, I like both, and more importantly, you’re still you. You’re still the witch that I love dearly, regardless of your gender.” I said, rubbing her shoulder.
  She smiled, wiping her eyes again. “I love you too.”
  I wiped her tears with my sweater sleeve and smiled back. “Do you wanna start experimenting today then, or is that moving too fast? I have some old makeup in my bag if you wanna try now…”
  She nodded hard. “I…I’d like to start now. I’ve um…been wanting to. Cue the makeover montage?”
  “Hell yeah!” I grinned, opening my satchel to dig out the makeup. “I am honored to serve you your first makeover montage!”
  ***
Uh okay, thank you for humoring my transgender impulses. We will be back to my usual content in a bit lol

Hiii!
you seem to be a good writer! what do you think of hunter x nb!reader (they are dating) who had wings but the wings were ripped off by the possessed hunter? with fluff at the end if possible
Thank!!! Have a good day!!!
You Are My Wings- Hunter x Non-Binary/GN! Winged! Reader
A/N: Absolutely! I love this idea!
I'M SO SORRY THIS TOOK FOREVER TO GET OUT I SWEAR I WAS BUSY.
Spoilers: Thanks to Them and For the Future
T/W: Death (Canonical), amputations, angst, feelings of guilt, shame, almost death.
Not exactly gore like blood but KiNdA violent and mAybE body horror depending on how you feel about it. Some violence. AMPUTATIONS HAHHAAHHAHAH-
(Y/N) looked into the vast blue above them and their eyes followed a flock of birds flying happily. Their wings spread out slowly, anxiously, as they watched the bright sky. Their wings twitched slightly, then flapped gently. It had been months since they last flew. Ever since they had been stranded in the Human Realm, they had been confined to illusion spells and the safety of Luz’s home. (Y/N) sighed and rested their head onto their arms on the window sill. 
It had been months since they all arrived. Everyone seemed to be getting by well; everyone except (Y/N). They hadn’t ever been restricted from flying. Back in the Isles, they flew as freely as they pleased. In the Human Realm, however, they were restricted to the ground like never before. They sighed sadly, and hid their head into their arms again. The ends of their wings layed lifelessly against the floor.
Suddenly, they heard the door creak open. The sound was followed by a familiar pattern of footsteps. (Y/N) smiled and perked up, looking around as they were approached. 
The young male blushed lightly seeing the excitement on his partner’s face. Hunter smiled as he sat next to (Y/N), “Hey,” He murmured softly to them. “How are you, (Y/N)?” His blush spread across his face and to his ears. He watched (Y/N) flap their wings excitedly. It reminded him slightly of how Flapjack would flap his wings.
(Y/N) smiled, “Oh I’m… I’m okay, I’m just…” They trailed off and looked back up at the sky. “I just miss… being up there…” They leaned their head onto Hunter and he tensed nervously. Although they had been dating for a while, he was still nervous and shy around them. His fingers danced awkwardly across his folded legs. (Y/N) could feel the heat from Hunter’s face spreading to theirs and smiled.
Tumblr media
The male finally eased and relaxed, resting his head on (Y/N)’s. He thought for a moment, “I miss it, too. I liked playing Flyer Derby. Being in the sky like that was so much fun. It must have been even more fun for you though.” He paused for a moment again, “I mean, because you can just… er, could, fly around whenever you wanted to….” He trailed off awkwardly and (Y/N) laughed.
“Yeah, it was fun being up there…” (Y/N) smiled and reached for his hand and Hunter accepted. The two stared out the window peacefully. (Y/N) stretched out their wing and embraced Hunter, slowly wrapping it around him. He felt the gentle warmth and soft feathers melt into him. Hunter gently nuzzled (Y/N)’s head. 
Hunter sighed and thought for a moment. He closed his eyes, remembering when (Y/N) held his hand for the first time. He hadn’t expected he’d be ready for a relationship, but he had longed for it. (Y/N) had been patient, kind, and unbelievably loving toward him. They took care of him and made him feel loved and special. It wasn’t the same “special” Belos had molded him into. The false promise that he was meant for great things. It was a genuine special. He felt like he really mattered as someone. He was loved for who he was.
He chewed his lips awkwardly, still too shy to say everything he wanted to. “Hey, (Y/N)?” He called softly, looking away nervously.
“Mhm?” They hummed back, leaning further into him. He smiled, just as he did everytime they gave him the attention he never knew he needed. Hunter loved feeling them close to him, and he loved the gentleness of their wings’ embrace.
“Umm…Are you excited about the Halloween Party?” He asked instead of saying what he really meant.
(Y/N) cuddled against Hunter, causing his heart to skip a few dozen beats. “Yeah! I think it’ll be fun.” They replied softly, their gaze fixed on the sky above them.
Hunter nodded, dancing his fingers over his legs. “(Y/N)?” He called again.
“Yeah?”
Hunter hid his face into (Y/N)’s shoulder. “I… I love you, (Y/N)...” He murmured shyly to them. 
(Y/N) smiled, and pulled away from Hunter to turn and face him. He lifted his head and looked at (Y/N) nervously, thinking he had made them uncomfortable. Hunter then noticed the smile on their face and smiled back.
(Y/N) cupped his cheeks and pulled him in to connect their lips. Hunter blushed madly but melted into the kiss, feeling their soft, warm lips against his own. Their warmth comforted him like nothing else could. Hunter felt his heart melt, smiling through the sweet kiss. 
(Y/N) pulled back after a while, still cupping his cheeks in their soft hands. They rested their forehead against his. “I love you, Hunter.” 
Hunter smiled and stared into their bright (e/c) eyes. He felt his heart race as he took in the moment. The two leaned back together and pecked each other gently, (Y/N)’s wings bringing the two closer with each kiss.
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
(Y/N) spread their wings and leaped into the air, the rush of cold wind brushing fiercely against their wings. They flew at ‘Hunter’ and circled him. Flapjack was trying to distract him by flapping and pecking at him desperately. ‘Hunter’ grimaced and snatched the little bird in a swift movement. Flapjack struggled and cried in fear, chirping loudly in panic. (Y/N) dove down at him. He looked up at them and smiled before grabbing them and throwing them to the ground. (Y/N) yelped in surprise as he pushed them into the Earth beneath them.
He looked from the little cardinal to (Y/N), and a grim smirk crept onto his face. “It seems like you’ve done yet another good thing for me, Luz,” Belos' voice taunted as gripped the crying bird tightly while (Y/N) struggled under his arm. “You’ve brought these two to me; I’ll kill two birds with one stone- quite literally,” Belos soft voice taunted them maliciously.
“NO!!” Luz cried out desperately from the bridge.
“That’s right,” He muttered happily, “You wouldn’t  want me hurting your precious palisman- would you?” The bird chirped and sung for help, “Oh, but again- I don’t care what you want,” he said, a vile smirk growing across his face.
He looked at Flapjack, “Goodbye, Evelyn”, he muttered. The small Palisman was pierced with his sharp claws. He crushed him between his hands and the bird’s form became severely distorted.
‘Hunter’ set his foot on (Y/N)’s back, just between their two wings. (Y/N) squirmed in panic, trying to free themself from his grasp. 
“It would be such a shame if Hunter hurt the only two he really loved,” He wrapped his claws around both of (Y/N)'s wings, pulling them harshly. They screamed, unbearable pain searing through their entire body. Their wings twisted and distorted in pain and flapped desperately.
“(Y/N)!!” Luz screamed, reaching out to (Y/N). Everybody gasped in horror as a disgusting ripping sound filled the air. ‘Hunter’ tossed their wings aside as if they were nothing. They laid on the ground, limp, unmoving and horrifyingly curled at the ends as if they wanted to make one last attempt to fly away. 
‘Hunter’ began to bring Flapjack up to him, about to consume the magical essence of the small palisman. Just as he brought his arm up, he hesitated, and his other arm snagged at him. Flapjack was released and he glided down into Luz’s arms. 
Luz shook in horror seeing the damage of the palisman up close, “Flapjack!” She cried out in terror. She cupped him in her hands and cried, “You’re going to be okay!” the little bird  looked up to her weekly, breathing heavily.
(Y/N)’s vision began to blur. As their eyes began to close, they got one last glance of Hunter. They panted heavily as they watched him stumble forward. 
“You know what I’d like?” It was finally his voice again. Hunter’s gentle voice softly rang in (Y/N)’s mind as his form began to blur, fading in and out of focus. Colors began to blend together into a murky painting before their eyes. They didn’t feel themselves breathing anymore. Pain overwhelmed their entire body as consciousness pounded and faded.“Hunter-” (Y/N) thought they called out to him. They couldn’t hear themselves, or they were too loud to hear anything else. They suddenly saw a form moving quickly, and then fade into a puddle of blue. (Y/N) couldn’t tell how much later it happened, but two forms shifted out of the faded blue. Pain throbbed fiercely in their back as their eyes closed. Hunter…
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
“(Y/N)!” Hunter shot up but then coiled back in pain, “No, no, no!” He began to tremble violently. Hunter brought his hands up to his face and wept bitterly. “(Y/N)...”
“Wait, I-” Willow rose quickly and left Hunter in Camila’s arms, “I- I think I can help!” She ran to (Y/N) and Luz followed behind her. Luz hugged herself as tears streamed down her face. It’s my fault, it’s my fault. He only did this because of me…  
“Is- is (Y/N) going to be ok? I- I can’t find a glyph!” She dug into her pouch savagely as she ran. The two girls approached them, and Luz kneeled to (Y/N)’s side opposite of Willow. 
“I… I think so. Viney knew a healing spell,” Willow reached for (Y/N) and steadied them into her arms. “They’re barely breathing…” Willow looked at (Y/N) and grimaced when she saw their back. “It’s best not to look, just- here help me,” She turned them to their side. 
“H-how?! What do we do?!” Luz cried out. She was shaking as badly as (Y/N) was.
“Try to bring them back to consciousness while I heal them,” Willow answered calmly, trying to reassure Luz. “They’ll be fine just- just keep (Y/N) conscious,” She made a large loop with her hands and it began to glow.
Everything was muffled and fading. (Y/N) felt a thousand things in their body. They were cold and shaking violently. Their back stung and burned exactly where their wings were. The world flashed brightly but suddenly descended into an abyss of black. (Y/N) breathed desperately, or not at all, trying to catch their breath. They felt that they couldn’t breathe yet the air burned their lungs. The only thing they felt for certain was their uncontrollable shaking. They tried to move their wings, to feel them, but they couldn’t. They only felt the nerves in their back twist, tighten, pulse, and pull.
The muffled sounds suddenly became a familiar hum. Their back began to numb slightly, slowly, as their other senses came back. They finally breathed again and their body relaxed slightly.
“(Y/N)! I- I think they can hear me!” Luz exclaimed as tears of joy began streaming down her face. She watched (Y/N) shift ever so slightly. Luz pulled (Y/N) closer in her lap. “Oh, (Y/N)...” 
“Careful!” Willow reminded Luz, “They…” She frowned again, “They’ll be okay but… we can’t do anything about…” The two girls looked over to (Y/N)’s lifeless wings and shuddered again in horror. 
Hunter laid in Camila’s arms, trembling as he cried. He had watched Luz and Willow run to (Y/N)’s aid. He calmed slightly when he saw Willow begin to use a magic circle.
 “Is everyone else okay?” Hunter asked through tears, trying to sit up as Camila held him.
“Everyone else... I think so,” Gus explained. “I don’t know about (Y/N), but Flapjack-”
“Don’t!” Hunter cut him off as he broke into tears. “Don’t… I-I already know.” He gripped his shirt where Flapjack had laid. Hunter struggled in Camila’s arms as he tried to rise.
“Sit up slowly, baby. Are you in pain anywhere?” Camila asked gently. Hunter shook his head. 
“I’m fine-” He murmured, “(Y/N), I need to know how they are!” Hunter rose and his knees bent jerkishly. He stretched out his arms for balance, then finally stood up and bolted towards (Y/N). He ran towards them, stumbling several times as he tried to recover from the weakness in his body. 
The two girls looked up at Hunter as he approached them. They shared the same grim expression. Hunter looked to his right and his breath hitched as his eyes settled on the atrocity before him. He felt his heart sink and stomach turn. “Oh no…” He felt tears prickle his eyes. They began to spill out uncontrollably. Hunter turned and began to creep towards (Y/N). Their form laid limply in Luz’s lap, her arms embracing them tightly.
“Oh no, no, no,” Hunter collapsed onto his knees next to Luz and took their hand in his. “(Y/N)? He called out weakly, his voice breaking. Hunter began to snivel, “(Y/N)?” He called sternly, yet the pain in his voice took over. “(Y-Y/N), please,” He squeezed their hand in his, and reached out to feel their cheek with his other hand. “(Y/N), p-please! Please d-don’t do this to m-me,” He begged desperately, choking on his words. Hunter continued shaking his head wildly as he spoke. “(Y/N)! (Y/N), PLEASE!” His desperation overwhelmed him. He wanted to demand them to get up. His orders as the Golden Guard had been obeyed, respected, and followed regardless of anything, but he knew he couldn’t do anything for (Y/N). No command could ever bring back those who were lost, and he knew it too well.
Hunter began to cry harshly, his sudden cries of pain filling the atmosphere around them. “(Y/N) please, please, please,” He swallowed forcefully, trying to control himself. His heart sunk again as guilt settled over him. “(Y/N) I’m sorry! I-I didn’t mean to do it!” Hunter began to shake as he felt his soul being torn apart, “(Y/N) I-I couldn’t d-do a-a-anything, I swear!” He began to sob uncontrollably as shame overcame him. “(Y/N) I would never h-hurt y-you, I swear, please.” Hunter shifted and moved in front of Luz and his body bent over (Y/N)’s limp form helplessly. “I’m so, so sorry. (Y/N), I love you I would never do anything to hurt you, I swear,” Hunter spoke without pausing, his words jumbling into a mess. The others began to gather around the weeping male. Luz and Willow exchanged worried glances as they watched him cry. Luz dug her fingers into her legs, as she remained kneeled, did the spell work?
Hunter took (Y/N)’s limp form in his arms. He cupped their cheeks and rubbed his thumb gently against one. The male bit his lip, trying to control himself but another whimper left him.
“(Y/N)?” Another whimper followed, and he rested his forehead against theirs. He closed his eyes and hugged them tightly, feeling their body shift gently as they barely breathed. 
“Hunter?” (Y/N) finally murmured sluggishly. Hunter perked up, his eyes flying open with shock.
“(Y/N)? (Y/N)!!” He cried happily, pulling them up into a hug, “Oh, (Y/N),” he whispered through tears and happy whimpers. “Oh, my (Y/N),” he held their head in one hand, his fingers tangling in their (h/c) hair. 
(Y/N) laughed half-heartedly, opening their eyes slightly, slowly. “Hunter… Hunter, are you okay? What-” They exhaled awkwardly, shifting, flexing, and twisting their back, “What happened?” Their eyes were half open, exhausted, and disoriented. (Y/N) rested their head against Hunter’s shoulder. 
Hunter tensed and hid his face into (Y/N)’s neck, his tears trickling onto their neck as he cried. “I-I thought I lost you… too…” He sniffled, his body rising and falling sharply with each sob. 
(Y/N) thought for a moment and pulled away to look at Hunter. They then looked around at the others, scanning the group. They lifted their head for a moment and looked briefly behind him. (Y/N)’s eyes settled on their wings, and by instinct, they tried to feel them by flapping them. There was only the tension in their back, a slight movement where they had been. Their breath hitched and they trembled in horror. (Y/N) looked back to Hunter.
“Where’s Flapjack?” 
Everyone shared the same grim expression, tears in everyone’s eyes. (Y/N) looked back at Hunter. He was biting his lip harshly as fresh tears gathered in his eyes. He shook his head gently, utter pain seeping out of his soul. 
“No, no…” They murmured, scanning the group. Their sadness only confirmed what he had said. “Oh, Hunter!” (Y/N) flung themselves towards Hunter and embraced him tightly.  (Y/N) dug their face back into Hunter’s neck and he pulled them closer. (Y/N) wished they could embrace him in their wings, to hide him away in them. Hunter’s tears were joined by (Y/N)’s and by everyone else’s.The two cried together, hugging each other tightly in the darkness of the dead night.
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
(Y/N) made their through the clearing with Hunter as the group walked forward. Hunter had told them they could stay in the Human realm after what they had gone through. (Y/N) however, was too stubborn to leave their boyfriend alone and gladly followed Hunter through the portal.
Hunter had been somewhat distant since they made it through the portal. (Y/N) noticed he was irritated easily and Hunter avoided looking (Y/N) in their eyes for too long. Although, he wouldn’t deny the offer of holding his partner’s hand when offered, and so they walked on together.
As they made their way through, the others became excited in their home world and began to perform their magic. (Y/N) and Hunter watched as Willow and Gus played with illusions of red grass. 
“Willows back!”
“Hooray!”
The illusions cheered happily, cuddling Willow sweetly. Hunter and (Y/N) smiled at the two; it was good to see their friend were happy.
Suddenly, Hunter was startled by the sound of chirping. (Y/N) gasped, and the two looked up to where the sound was emitting from. Hunter tensed as he saw it, and (Y/N) felt their heart sink: it was a red bird. 
The bird suddenly flew away and disappeared into the sky before them. (Y/N) stared helplessly at the sky above. They had longed to be back, to be in those skies. They sighed sadly and looked down. 
Hunter grumbled angrily, and his grip tightened on (Y/N)’s hand. “We don’t have time for red grass or… illusions!” He shouted impatiently, pulling at his hair with his other hand, “Belos had a head start- so we should keep MOVING until we find him!” He started forwards again, and (Y/N) stumbled after him. As they continued moving, they caught a glance of Amity playing with abomination magic. She swirled purple slime in the air happily, giggling as she did so. (Y/N) continued to stumble slightly with Hunter’s rigorous pace, but turned to face forward to catch up to him.
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
(Y/N) glanced around the secret room in awe. Hunter crept in after them, looking around curiously behind the group.
Mattholomule made his way to the center, “This is where me and Jerbo have been trying to come up with plans to make Hexside more liveable," He explained, motioning with his hand.
Hunter looked around the room, making his way to some wooden crates in the corner. (Y/N) glanced over and saw him, and chased after him quickly. The two sat on the crates, a silence looming over them.
Hunter didn’t want to avoid (Y/N), but he didn’t know what to say. Guilt had completely flooded him, overwhelming his soul. He rested his head on his left palm, his other arm laying across his legs. He stared at the floor, irritated with himself for what had happened. Hunter blew his strand of golden hair out of his face in annoyance. It’s my fault any of this happened.
(Y/N) looked around the room. It was covered in different plans, papers and drawings hung everywhere. They glanced back at Hunter. He had been strangely quiet since they arrive at the Isles. They turned away and sighed sadly. (Y/N) knew Hunter too well and knew he was keeping something from them. Hunter was always so eager to share everything with (Y/N), and (Y/N) loved hearing him. 
(Y/N) leaned onto Hunter’s shoulders and placed their hand over his. They held it gently in their hand. Hunter perked up in surprise, glancing over to (Y/N). He sighed awkwardly, wishing he could fix everything.
Suddenly, (Y/N) sat up jerkishly, feeling pain burn in their back and tingling throughout their wings. Their first instinct was to flap them to alleviate the numbing. They had learned that from the various times their wings had fallen asleep. Once, Hunter had watched (Y/N) flap their wings wildly after they had fallen asleep, and he couldn’t help but laugh with them.
Hunter looked over to (Y/N), who had tensed suddenly after jerking up. I don’t have my wings…
“What’s wrong?” he asked worriedly, shifting in his seat as he examined his partner.  (Y/N) squeezed his hand tightly, biting their lip.
“I thought I felt my wings,” They explained under their breath. Hunter felt his stomach twist, turning away as the same shame came over him again.
Tumblr media
“Are you okay?” They asked gently.
Hunter felt his heart sink. He sighed heavily, “Yeah… I’m… I-I’m okay…” He paused, hesitating before asking. “How are you?” He murmured, looking at their back sadly.
“I’m okay,” They whispered in return. Hunter felt his heart throb painfully. He longed to undo everything that had happened to them. Everything he had done.
(Y/N) kissed Hunter’s cheek softly, “I love you, Hunter,” (Y/N) whispered into his ear.
Hunter choked as he felt tears burn his eyes. “I-I-I love you too, (Y/N),” He murmured through his broken voice. After everything I did, they don’t have any resentment against me…
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅
A bright flash of purple light covered everything behind the four. Hunter had managed to move everyone out of the way as he saw the beam coming towards them. Once it disappeared, they all crept forward and stared in the direction it came from. 
“Huh?” They asked in unison.
“Sorry! Haha!” Luz apologized bashfully, “I’m still getting the hang of this!” She exclaimed, holding a glowing staff in her left hand.
“Luz has a staff,” Gus stated in shock.
“Why does that make me nervous?” Willow squeaked awkwardly.
“Woah, no way!” (Y/N) exclaimed, admiring the glowing purple orb.
Trees cracked apart and Kiki Mora came forward, “There you are!” She growled in fury, “I am do–o-one playing hide-and-seek,” She shouted in a broken, exhausted voice, crouching forward in the Abomaton. She raised the arm of the machine and shot a beam at the group.
Willow acted quickly, summoning large vines from the ground. She rode on them, moving forward and blocking the beam from the others. 
She summoned a magic circle and smirked, “Yup, that’s better.” She said confidently, preparing herself. She closed the trees in on Kiki, and created another vine that grabbed the robot’s arm, causing it to smack Kiki repeatedly.
Kiki broke free and steadied the arm for another firing. Clover flew out of Willow’s shirt and turned into a staff, ready for flight. Willow hopped on swiftly and flew away just as the shot missed her.
Luz, Hunter, and (Y/N) gasped nervously.
“She’s fine,” Gus replied cooly. “This is child’s play for us,” He clasped his hands together and pulled them apart to reveal four magic circles.
 Suddenly, three illusions of Willow poofed into the sky, side by side of one another. They began to fly in different directions, swirling and looping before everyone. Two were destroyed almost immediately after being created.
“Woah, what did I miss?!” Luz asked in awe, watching the final illusion. 
Suddenly, Willow was hit by one of Kiki’s beams. She yelped as her staff flew out of reach, and plummeted to the ground.
(Y/N) looked around worriedly, in utter panic, thinking of a way to help. They paused, recalling when they first arrived and snapped around, Oh Titan, oh, Titan, oh Titan, please work!
(Y/N) shut their eyes tightly, making a medium-sized circle. They shot up and caught Willow as she flew through the sky. They held her in their arms, carrying her down to safety. (Y/N) made an attempt to land, managing to set Willow back on the ground. Just as they were about to crash-land, Hunter flashed forward, catching (Y/N) as they awkwardly stumbled forward, gasping in fear.
Luz stared as (Y/N)’s purple, slimy wings, spread widely while Hunter held them in his arms. “I missed a lot!” She shouted angrily. “I don’t need this retched school to start my own empire," Kiki stated angrily, “I’ll make my own!” She taunted, creeping the robot towards the group. “And I’ll start by taking you apart- piece by peice! Brat. By. Brat!” She growled furiously as she pointed at them.
 Kiki was suddenly hit by flaming Grudgby balls, coiling back from the attack.
“Stop right there!” Mattholume demanded from the cliff above. Kiki Mora grunted as she turned to face him. “Miki, I can’t say I’m surprised by this,” He said plainly with arms crossed. “As for you Roka,” He continued, and the robot hummed as it pointed to itself, “I know there’s been nothing but chemistry between us,” He said dramatically, flipping his lavish brown hair back with his hand. “Be that as it may I-”
“That’s a robot, Matt,” Boscha cut him off harshly.
“Mm-mm”, Mattholomule dismissed her reply as he waved his hand.
Amity glided down from the cliff with her staff. As she landed, she grabbed Luz’s hand, “They’ll hold her back! Let’s get to the skull!” She exclaimed, running forwards with the group. 
(Y/N) felt Hunter tug their hand and they raced forwards together, close behind the others. They turned as they watched everyone from Hexside launch themselves at Kiki, sending her tumbling to the ground. 
Everyone kept running toward the skull. Suddenly, Luz stopped and held the photo of the teleportation glyph. She began to draw it into the ground with her finger. The orb on her staff glowed brightly and it began to levitate, raising Luz off of the ground. 
“Huh?” She murmured in surprise. She began to laugh as the staff twirled her in the air. “I can’t tell what you’re gonna be but… thank you, little friend!”
The others watched and pulled out there’s staffs, helping Luz create the glyph. (Y/N)  and Hunter helped engrave the patterns into the dirt, overlapping circles and shapes.
From the distance, Kiki burst through all the students who had dog-piled her. “This is MY empire now! You have to obey ME!!” She yelled, charging towards the group.
Luz watched in horror as a beam flew toward the group. She turned around, slamming her palms onto the glyph. The lines began to glow gold, and everyone levitated slightly as beams of light rose from the ground. Everyone grouped together tightly as the shot from Kiki collided with them.
(Y/N) his into Hunter’s chest, closing their eyes tightly as they felt the world shift around them. They felt cold air settle around them and Hunter’s embrace loosen slightly. (Y/N) lifted their head slowly as they opened their eyes, realizing they had made it into the skull safely.
(Y/N) jumped up in excitement, embracing Hunter tightly. “We did it! We did it! We did it!” They exclaimed happily, and Hunter returned their embrace, swinging them excitedly through the air, his own laughter bubbling. He ignored the cold goop of their wings sticking slightly to his skin.
Willow looped her arm with Amity’s, “Omygosh! Ah!” She exclaimed, jumping excitedly. “I can’t believe that actually worked!” The two girls jumped and laughed, running forwards together happily.
Camily leaned down to Hunter, her hand on her chin, “Woo-ooh! Hoo-hoo ho-ho hoo!” She laughed excitedly as Hunter let go of (Y/N) to face her. “You really beamed us up, eh O’Bailey?” She asked, nudging Hunter playfully and clasping her hands together excitedly.
Hunter and Gus locked eyes and gasped in unison, “Beam us up! Beam us up! Beam us up!!” They chanted together happily and then began to laugh with Camila. (Y/N)’s laughter began to bubble as they saw Hunter’s excitement. They knew Hunter and Gus loved those books. (Y/N) had even listened to Hunter read every Cosmic Frontier book to them. 
In the distance, Luz stared into the glowing staff. It was no longer an orb, but a flurry of lights circling, hiding away the new palisman. 
“Guys,” She murmured softly, “Come meet my palisman!” Everyone hushed and began to gather near. 
“What kind of magical creature will it be? A dragon?” Camila kneeled down to get a better look.
“A bird?” Hunter asked, holding a fist above his palm.
“Oh! An otter!” Amity shouted excitedly..
“A spooky bat?” Willow wiggled her fingers
“Aaa snake?” Gus asked as he peeked over.
“A capybara!” (Y/N) exclaimed enthusiastically. It had been one of the mystical creatures they had come across in the human realm.
Luz smiled sweetly at them, holding the staff a bit higher, “You’re close…” She said happily. 
Out of the swirling purple lights emerged a long, slim creature. It swirled into the air, spreading its wings to reveal a bat with silver, purple, and dark purple fur. It looped into the air, swirling into a ball above everyone. It unfurled and turned into a Scorpion, the rattle-like end sounding and claws snapping. It flew up, swirling and looping before changing again to reveal a dragon with a white chest and purple fur. It showed off its claws for a moment before returning it its curled position, twisting and turning before everyone. It looped in the sky as a bright light surrounded them. It emerged to reveal a snake with cat ears and a muzzle, smiling happily. It’s rattle shook again, happily greeting everyone.
"She’s a snake shifter! Her name is Stringbean and she’s perfect!!” Luz exclaimed happily as Strinbean cuddled her. The palisman levitated around the others, looping over and under each of them. The palismen left their owners to meet their newest member.
Camila stretched her arms out to the palisman. “Pero mira, que preciosos mis bebes! Ven, ven!” She called to them.
Hunter had distanced himself as he watched the palisman gather. He longed for Flapjack to have been able to meet Strinbean. He held his shirt in the same spot Flapjack had laid for the last time. The male sighed sadly and looked to the ground.
There was a sudden pattern of familiar footsteps, and Hunter locked eyes with (Y/N), blushing for a moment as they smiled at him.
“H-how are you holding up?” He asked nervously, glancing at (Y/N)’s new, goopy wings.  
They smiled and looked back at them, flapping them excitedly. “I think I’ll be okay,” They replied softly. “They’re not the same but, they’ll do just fine.” 
“Yeah… I like them…” He replied softly, still gripping his shirt.
“Hunter, are you okay?” They asked gently, reaching for his hand. No matter what happened, Hunter could never refuse the comfort of (Y/N)’s hand.
“I’m just… thinking about Flapjack…” He admitted quietly. Hunter sighed as (Y/N) embraced him. 
“I miss him too,” They replied, holding him closely. Hunter laid his head on (Y/N)’s as he returned the hug.
“(Y/N)?” He asked nervously.
“Yeah?” 
“I-I’m sorry… about everything.” He closed his eyes, wishing he could hide away from them. 
“Hunter, what do you mean?” (Y/N) asked in confusion, pulling away to look at him. They held his hands in their’s, waiting for a reply.
“I mean about your wings!” He admitted as his voice broke, tears prickling his eyes. “I never meant to hurt you! I couldn’t do anything, all I could do was w-watch-” Hunter shook his head and bit his lip as his ears pulled back. 
“Hunter-”
“And I was too scared to talk to you about it. I loved your wings. They were so beautiful.” His shoulders slumped as he looked away from (Y/N). “I feel horrible about it. I feel so guilty about what happened to you- about what I did.” Hunter curled his hands into fists. “If I hadn’t chased after Belos like that, your wings and Flapjack would still be here.” 
(Y/N) thought for a moment, remembering everything that had happened the night of the Halloween Party. Just as they were about the leave, Willow had covered (Y/N)’s wings in vines and blossoms. The blossoms and flowers had become their burial. Everyone was to scared to actually touch them.
“Hunter,” (Y/N) said sternly, reaching for his hand. Hunter turned back to look at them, tears in his eyes. “None of this is your fault. It’s exactly like what you told Luz: Belos tricks people. He’s tricked all of us, Hunter. None of this is your fault,” (Y/N) reached up to Hunter and cupped his cheek in their hand. Hunter closed his eyes as he melted into their touch, feeling the reassurance of (Y/N)’s warmth. 
Hunter sniffled as tears ran down (Y/N)’s hand. “You’re sure?” He asked nervously as he locked his eyes with theirs.
“Yes, I am sure. I don’t blame you for what happened, Hunter. I could never blame you for this,”. (Y/N) caressed Hunter’s cheek gently, tears prickling their own eyes as they saw Hunter cry gently. “I don’t want you to feel guilty for any of this, okay? Not for me, and not for Flapjack. He wouldn’t want you to be sad. After all, he did this for you,”. (Y/N) placed a hand on Hunter’s chest, and he smiled half-heartedly.
“Yeah… you’re right.” He murmured softly, placing his hand over (Y/N)’s.
“C’mere, you,” (Y/N) whispered to Hunter, pulling him down for a gentle kiss. They pulled away from Hunter and placed their forehead on his, “You are my wings. Hunter, I love you. Nothing can ever change that. Nothing from the past or in the future. I love you,” They cupped his cheeks in both hands, pulling him closer to them.
Hunter reached up slowly, his fingers gently wrapping around their wrists. He laughed lightly as his worries faded away. Every insecurity melted away into nothing when he was with (Y/N).
“I love you, (Y/N),” He whispered to them gently. (Y/N) pulled him into another kiss, connecting his lips to theirs.
“I love you, Hunter,” (Y/N) whispered back. The two smiled at each other under the night skies, laying gentle kisses on one another. They covered their faces in soft pecks and their lips in warm kisses. Together they stood, against everything. Together, under the glowing stars in each others arms.

a headcanon i really like is that since hunter is a grimwalker and made with stonesleeper lungs, he has the stonesleeper trait of liking to be scratched behind the ears lol. would love to see a oneshot about that ^^
Tumblr media
A/N: That sounds really adorable
TW: Mentions of past trauma
Tumblr media
You had been sitting on the couch watching tv until midnight with Hunter. It was almost 11, and you wanted to go to bed. You weren't very tired yet, but you were going to get there soon enough. You could feel your eyes drooping as your head fell back against the couch, and your gaze settled on Hunter. He was sleeping peacefully on his side in front of you.
It had been a while since you and the others found out that he was a grimwalker. However no one treated him differently, you continued to flick through channels and decided to turn off the tv. Making a mental note to find a good show to watch later.
The night before you and Hunter had decided on something else, however as usual Hunter insisted that you choose what you wanted to do. You knew belos’s actions had left an imprint on Hunter, always asking what you wanted to do and never what he wanted to do.
You let out a sigh, throwing your head back on the couch as Hunter continued to snore. ‘Hm, if I remember correctly..Hunter has the trait of a stonesleeper’, you thought to yourself. Without realizing you had brought your hand to the back of his cut ear.
As you did, your mind traveled back to the first time you saw Hunter for the first time, when you had been fighting him to free the palismen. “So…how did you get those scars? Never seen anything like them.” “You humans talk a lot, don’t you?', he said completely ignoring what you asked.
You couldn’t help but scratch the back of his elf like ears. They were so cute. You watched as Hunter shuffled around a bit, you decided to pull the blanket more over him. As you went on with scratching the back of ear, you watched how it twitched just from scratching.
A soft sound of content escaped Hunter's lips and you felt butterflies in your stomach. The smile came naturally, and you couldn't stop yourself. If you could describe his actions when being scratched, it was almost cat-like.
You couldn't stop rubbing his ears until you got tired. It didn't take long for you to finally stop, but you made sure not to wake him. Leaving you to your thoughts, ‘grimwalker or not, his reactions are everything when sleeping’. You rubbed the under of his eyes, he really needs to sleep more. ‘Maybe I should teach him some skincare’, you thought thinking how it would be a nice way to bond together.
You squeezed him slightly before placing a kiss on his ear, only for it to twitch and turn a shade of red. You pulled back and laughed softly, he was so adorable, even after having been asleep for an hour. You leaned down and kissed his cheek gently and then gotten comfortable, only to wrap an arm around his waist. ‘Goodnight’, you whispered before drifting off to sleep.

- and your constant reassurance that he’s a good boyfriend brings him to tears a lot
- after the events of any sport in a storm he’d be at your doorstep
- knocking on the door in the most neurodivergent way (there is no way this kid is neurotypical - a neurodivergent person)
- and when you open the door all sleepy and in your pjs

- maybe he did that thing where he kicks the one leg up while kissing you
- he’s dramatic but we love him !!!!!
cuddling headcanons
- hunter big/little spoon switch truthers unite
- he prefers to be held so tightly
