Hi! I'm new to your page and so far LOVE your work, so could you do an Emperor Belos x reader fluff? It can be in-character or out-of-character, either is good! Hope your day is/was good <3

Emperor Belos and fluff don't really go hand in hand but ehhhhhh who knows? I'll try lmao

~~~

He liked lazy days like this. Days were you could sit on his lap on the throne and he could play with your hair while you leaned against his chest. Days where his curse wasn't so bad and days were no trouble was occuring. Hunter was out on a mission, the coven heads were busy. He had you and the castle all to himself. Just how he liked it.

Belos hummed softly smiling down at you and you snuggled closer with a soft smile of your own. He was a witch hunter but he supposed having one witch could be his reward for killing the hundreds of thousands more that resided on this accursed island. You didn't know anything about that of course, but he's sure you'll thank him someday when he takes you to his home and shows you the beauty of his world much like how you showed the beauty of yours. Speaking of beauty...

"Your beautiful you know?" He questions softly and you just smile that shy smile of yours. The one that could light up a whole room and make his heart flutter. That smile always makes him feel four hundred years younger.

"And your handsome you know." You respond before closing your eyes to listen to his heart. You'd told him once how it was different than a witches heartbeat because he had no bilesack but you enjoyed the sound regardless.

He continues to smile at you and places his head ontop of your own, arms wrapped around your waist as he somehow brings you closer. His long hair tickles you and you try not to giggle as the room was quiet. He notices your struggle but doesn't comment simply enjoying this moment with you.

Outside of the choas there were simple things he delighted in. You happened to be one of said indulgences. Maybe the Isles were good for something after all.

"I love you." He says softly and he meant it. He really did. As you looked up at him he tucked some hair behind your ear before giving you a gentle kiss. Forbidden as it may be the heart knows what it wants and his wanted you.

"I love you too." You respond and he hums pressing his lips to your forehead for another kiss before he leans back on his throne with you still straddling his lap and laying on his chest.

Every time I remember the scene where Belos upsets Luz and she starts crying so he calls her crazy and is like... smug about it I go insane WHAT WAS THAT?! DUde What the fuck. WHY?! A 14-year-old that you pretend to be concerned for before and after this moment is literally on the floor crying and you’re like “LOL”?! He’s terrible at keeping up the charade like... a week later he’s trying to talk her down like she’s some misinformed child (and then after that is like immediately trying to regain sympathy from Hunter by acting like a kicked puppy) like no you’re the fucking child dude what the actual hell. Kiddo is crying in front of you and instead of like... walking away or like doing anything else you’re like “guess it’s time to call her crazy for being upset” HUH?! !!?!?!?!

I think the reason why this pisses me off so much is just that Belos is literally like real people. This is how people like this act, I’ve talked about this with a bunch of people now and Belos really reflects a lot of shitty parents people have had, who seriously act this way. And he’s fucking infuriating.

#seriously the shift between lmao die to its your fault i have to hurt you to hunter please i am so sad take me back is like breakneck #he's so good at it and it makes me mad bc I remember ppl really do this #and I've seen this kind of behavior in people and I'm learning to recognize it #the owl house #tw belos #idk how to tag this #tw gaslighting #for the mention

‼️TOH s3 spoilers and tw for child abuse‼️

yknow what really small detail from ‘thanks to them’ just breaks my heart?

it’s this. hunter says “that throne room”.

“that”

not “the throne room”, THAT throne room.

he refers to the throne room in the castle the same way people who have had a traumatic experience (especially abuse victims) refer to where it took place. like when people who were abused as children talk about how they remember being in “that house” instead of “the house” when talking about their childhood residence.

obviously hunter was abused by belos, that’s not news, and the show has always had his behavior and mannerisms reflect that. but something about him saying “that throne room” just hurts to hear.

you can tell just from that one sentence that he experienced so much pain at belos’ hand in that throne room over the years.

Ok, what about if philip/belos has a partner toxic as him but they still love each other?

Now—there are a LOT of relationship dynamics that fall under the general “toxic” umbrella. I'm going to go ahead and explain the one my mind went to first when I initially read this ask, so it might not be the same version of “toxic” that you're thinking of. I'm sorry in advance!

Also, this is going to be more or less the same between Philip and Belos, so I'm not going to do two separate sections, and I'm just going to explain the one that I'd find more interesting narratively.

So—here’s the “toxic” relationship that I first imagined:

⚠️⚠️TW for suicide baiting and general emotionally abusive behaviors!⚠️⚠️

overly dependant, insecure SO who constantly needs reassurance and hangs off of Belos’s every action because they worry he’ll grow bored of them and leave them, and is overall very possessive of him to the point of being incapable of wanting to leave Belos’s side for even a moment + overly-controlling and manipulative Belos who revels in the idea that his love is too desperate to ever want to leave him despite his flaws.

S/O can barely stand it. Their husband constantly talks to countless people every day—its part of his job description as the annihilator of an entire populous! And there are so many talented, intelligent, and attractive witches that make up the castle staff. They can't help but feel that rush of anxiety in their chest when one of said witches needs to talk to their husband—seriously, why not give the news to them? They'd be more than happy to pass along the message to their husband if it was really THAT important.

Even when Belos tells them countless times that he'd never trade them for a witch, no matter how much venom is in his voice as he practically spits the word, there's that lingering doubt. They're so much prettier. Does he think those witches walking the halls are prettier than them? His gauntlet lingered by that coven head’s hand for a few moments too long for their tastes, surely that means he's having an abhorrent love affair with that witch.

Whenever their anxiety flares up like this, it inevitably ends in a freakout and breakdown. They’ll fall to their knees at Belos’s feet, clutching letters that were strictly business but had just enough reverent language from an underling for S/O to misconstrue as romantic or intimate feelings between them.

They’ll scream, they’ll cry, initially demanding to know why he'd trade them for a witch, after all they've given him. What do they have that they don't? What could they possibly offer him? Is it their body? They're prettier than me, is that it? Are they smarter than me? What is it, damn you? What? What? WHAT?

Then, after Belos manages to calm them down, that rage turns to sorrow as they realize that they snooped through their husband's possessions, his private, confidential letters to find evidence that didn't even exist. They’ll apologize incoherently, clutching at his robes, spewing promise after promise that this was going to be the last time, that they were never going to snoop again and please don't leave them because they can't imagine a world where he doesn't want them, and please, if he doesn't want them, they might just die. No, scratch that. They WILL die. They. Will. DIE. If he tosses them out like trash.

And as they fumble out their apologies and half-baked, empty, rehearsed promises, Belos simply wraps them in his arms, tucking their head under his chin as a soft, tired smile graces his lips. He knows this will not be the last time, but he can't bring himself to be too annoyed by it. After all, he does partially enjoy a few of the behaviors his beloved exhibits.

He loves the way they're practically attached to his hip. He loves the way he never has to worry whether or not they're truly loyal to him or if they genuinely love him. That desperation is so thick he could cut it with a knife and spread it on toast. He doesn't need to constantly have his hand in them like a sock puppet because they follow him around like a lovesick puppy, staying quiet and out of the way while he does the important work and then swooping in during down moments to squeeze in some affection and much-needed fishing for reassurance.

He still lies to them, obviously. His dishonesty is probably the biggest trigger for S/O’s insecurity. Nevertheless, S/O would never leave Belos because—well…who else would willingly put up with that level of inconvenience? And Belos would never want them to leave because that's the most loyal and devoted to him someone could possibly be, and they're a human who accepts him despite his issues. Why in the Hells would he ever give that up?

Why so blue?

Prologue, one, two, three, four, five, six

tag list: @luciddasher @seashelldom @goblinerrant @belos-simp69

Chapter Seven

Might be a few days for the next part, travelling for my surgery :3c

So many people reading now tho, hi! 👋

TW: Unwanted touching/groping, mention of miscarriage, parental death mention

Quaritch watched your resting form across by the banshees. His own had shifted to lay closer to you, not quite touching you, but definitely shielding you from the others. He worried somewhat, Spider had said they were carnivorous, were you in any danger from them? As if reading his mind Spider propped himself up on one arm.

"You want to kill Y/N?" Quaritch's head snapped towards him.

"What?! No." Spider laughed at his sudden response. Miles regretted being so candid with him, he should have made a dumb joke. 'Yeah kid every other second'. Something daft, light-hearted, something to get the kid further from the truth of his feelings.

"Well then, they'll be fine. Your Ikran will reflect your will towards them." Spider settled back down. Quaritch expected some mocking comment, that was the kids normal MO.

"So..." Here it comes. "What do you think of Y/N?" Quaritch chocked a little.

"Nope. Not having this conversation" Quaritch flopped down.

"You're not subtle, I just wanna clear things up..."

"Not whats happening kid. They're a captive to keep you in line and that's it. End of it." Quaritch would rather fall off the cliff again than hear another word about this. He did not want to talk about this with anyone, especially not with your son. Spider for his part kept his mouth shut but he could see his smirk.

There's no way he approved. This person was like a parent to him and he was the enemy. Though Quaritch had noted Spider softening to him. He caught his expression when he flew back up out of the gorge, the kid had been near tears. He cared for him, he didn't know to what extent yet but he was happy to let this flourish. He might not be the original Miles Quaritch but he hoped the kid would take him as a substitute, maybe an improvement. He'd come to terms with the fact he wanted him in his life. The kid was human after all, he could get him a place in the world he'd help carve out for humanity. Spider was a long way still from seeing him as family but he could get there if he could keep him on his side.

Your change in attitude could prove helpful in this. He might have written off you obviously checking him out the previous night, no harm done in looking, he'd done his fair share when you weren't paying attention. He was not ready to write off today's behavior however, he saw your face too when he flew back up. You grinning up at him, relieved, then cheering for him on top of that, he'd eaten that up.

He'd preened himself around the camp that night. Riding high on your ego stroke, the biggest mount, least injured by the affair and now Spider's full attention. He'd babbled next to him, excitedly sharing everything he knew of the banshees, desperately wanting to know what flying was like. Apparently the Sullys had never taken him up into the air.

"Well you'll be up there tomorrow, right with me." He puffed his chest. A win against Sully. Giving the kid something even his supposed people never offered him.

"Yeah..." He smile faltered.

"What is it kid?" Quaritch rested his hand on his shoulder, for the first time Spider didn't shake him off.

"I'll never really know what it's like, I'll never get my own."

"Spider..."

That's when you'd approached, Spider excusing himself with a joke and plodding off to the others. Quaritch couldn't dwell long on his worry however. Your hands on him was too much to ignore. His mind drifted back to what you'd said about 'tsaheylu', the thought had drifted past then but he focused on it now. Could he do that to you? If he did what would that mean for you both?

You were so close, your scent overwhelming him. He imagined swinging his legs closed, trapping you against him. He closed his eyes a moment, focusing on the feeling of your hands running up his arms, stopping at his neck. Over the bite you'd given him. He opened his eyes again suddenly grabbing you wrist more gently than he'd gripped you before. He couldn't stay this close to you, as nice as you'd been acting today he didn't think you'd take as kindly to what he'd do just yet.

Laying awake now, he watched you sleep. The gentle swell and fall of your chest, the way your hip exaggerated when you lay on your side. He decided he could have it all. Spider was already so close to accepting him properly, he would kill Jake Sully and he would make you his.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Morning broke and you woke up in a similar way to the last. Sitting up and feeling something heavy drop into your lap. This time to your shock however it was the large head of 'Cupcake', as Quaritch had called him. Cupcake rose, shaking awake. He bumped his long head against yours, rubbing affectionately. You giggled, allowing him to mess your hair up and reaching up to hold his face. You cooed at the beast, he was far sweeter than Jake's Bob had ever been.

Quaritch cleared his throat next to you. Straightening up suddenly you turned your attention to him. Your smile quickly returned, noticing Cupcake had done the exaxr same next to you. You couldn't help another giggle.

"Cupcake is a strange one"

"Cupcake?" Quaritch quirked an eyebrow up, offering you his hand to get up.

Confused you responded taking his hand. The cuffs made everything harder you justified. "Cupcake, that's what you called him before?"

"Oh" Quaritch laughed a little "Suppose I did, more of a nickname."

You removed your hand from hia, smoothing out your shawl.

"Do you have another name for him then?" You weren't sure what cupcake meant, it wasn't a nickname you'd heard from any of the English speakers you'd met before.

"Nah, Cupcake will have to do" He put his hands on his hips. Spider appeared around him.

"Cupcake it is!" He exclaimed moving to touch his neck. Cupcake moved into his hand, pulling his chin up to give plenty of access to be pet. It was awfully strange Ikran behavior from what you had seen before. Most Ikrans certainly tolerated the people in their riders life. Though Bob had let Jake's young children pet him, maybe Cupcake recognized Spider as Quaritch's.

"Who's Y/N riding with?" Spider turned back to Quaritch. You hadn't really thought about it yourself. You hadn't been given the chance to fight for your own, not that you thought you'd have managed. Though the recoms hadn't cared for the tradition of it they'd fought well for them, you never trained for such things.

"Wainfleet'll take them" Quaritch walked back over to the others, giving orders. You prickled at this, you'd have been happy to ride with Zdog, though perhaps since both her and Mansk were more injured they wouldn't be suited to having a passenger. Still the idea of riding with Lyle disgusted you. He only seemed to get bolder with each day and you did not want to spend hours clinging to his back.

Quaritch mounted Cupcake, pulling an excited Spider up and in front of him.

"Head out!" He ordered, Cupcake taking to the edge to begin his flight.

"Wait the restraints?" You moved a few steps forward before you felt rough hands grab your underarms and haul you up. You squealed and heard Lyle's laugh too close to your ears. He manhandled you into the space in front of him, his hands pulling your hips back and towards him. You swatted him off the best you could with still bound hands, hissing over your shoulder.

"Suit yourself buttercup, just don't want the boss chewing me out for dropping your ass" He held both hands up in surrender but you didn't like the way he smiled at you. You grumbled, pinching his mounts body between your thighs and holding her neck for balance.

Lyle took off roughly sending you falling back against him again. The day continued on like this, you'd pull away or create as much space as you could then he'd veer or drop in just the right way to send you back to him. The first couple of times you could have thought it was an accident, it was only his second flight after all, but as the day wore on you were furious. He was doing this on purpose.

You'd been passing over the swamp lands for an hour or so now. You barely registered them passing bellow you. Lyle had put his hand on your leg after the last quick swerve and had been progressively reaching it higher and higher. You wanted to bite it off but there was little you could do trapped in the air with him. Any action could cause you to fall, could you call to Zdog? Would she help? She'd hissed at him before for you, maybe she could scare him off. She was too far back from you, the wind would sweep your voice away before it reached her.

"Copy that. We're coming in for a landing there." Lyle spoke into your ear, reaching an arm past you to point at a large patch of solid land, rivers threading around either side. That hand dropped down and held your waist, the other now on your thigh began to slip to the inside.

You saw red. You were clawing and hissing, pushing him.

"Don't touch me! Don't you dare touch me!" You scream at him, swinging your cuffed hands together at him. He kept a grip on you, shouting for you to calm down, to stay still while he landed.

As soon as you were close enough to the ground you began kicking him. You pushed off, falling hard onto the moss bellow. The others landed, quickly dismounting to come check what was happening. Quaritch's features were set in a line, he was angry. You didn't care in the moment, scrambling up.

Lyle had his hands up, spouting some lies, calling you crazy. You roared at him swinging to kick him in his gut. He was a more experienced fighter than you however, catching your ankle.

"Quit it buttercup!" He spat out at you.

"Let her go." Quaritch commanded. Lyle scoffed dropping your ankle, you stumbled back. Quaritch caught your shoulders, before passing you off to Spider. He touched your arm sympathetically before returning his glare to Lyle.

"You don't touch her." Quaritch got into Lyles space, his face humorless. He jabbed a finger against Wainfleet's chest. "Got it?"

Wainfleets body language changed in an instant. His swaying tail stilled, his ears tipped down.

"Yes sir." He bowed his head, not looking at Quaritch. There was a tension still in the air. Neither man seemed quite ready to back down, Quaritch's tail thrashing behind him.

Zdog cleared her throat loudly. Attention turned to her, a fight abandoned. You still wanted blood, Lyle's to be precise. The recoms regrouped, planning next steps, where to further their search for the Sullys.

You missed them you realised, you're anger with them had lessened in your days since reuniting with Spider. You'd come to understand Neytiri better, she was like you, doing whatever she had to do for her children. You laid a hand on Spider's shoulder beside you, he looked up sympathetically at you.

"I'll have to break his fingers first chance I get" Spider wrapped an arm around you. You smiled down at him, his stripes were wearing away.

"Thank you." You took in your surroundings now, home. The deep greens and muddy yellows of the rivers plantlife snaked through the lands you'd spent your happiest and worst moments of childhood. Rusty coloured ferns that you'd played with the other children in, deep blue leafy plants you'd use to hide in from your lessons. The water was still bloodied with the chemicals that poisoned your teacher, your mother's unborn, then her. It hurt to be here, your heart ached for all that you'd lost.

Spider sensed your pain, walking you gently over to where Mansk had began preparations for a fire. He looked up at you this time, catching your eye, though through his sunglasses you weren't sure. His ears tipped down and he looked away again, tail swishing unsettled behind him. You weren't sure why he acted so strange towards you. It was submissive, a more exaggerated version of how men had acted around your Tsahìk. Especially when her mate was in a fold mood.

Quaritch sat next to you. He was grinding his teeth, still angry. You supposed to keep the peace you'd promised Spider, you would have to apologize for attacking his man. The thought sickened you, to apologize for his man's unwarranted actions. No it was not your fault that creature couldn't keep his hands to himself.

"I'm sorry about Lyle." Quaritch looked strained. You kept your eyes locked on his profile, not entirely sure he had actually said what you thoughthe had. "He's dealt with. You'll be riding with myself or Zdog from now on." His shoulders were still squared, tensed with anger. You followed his line of sight to Wainfleet, who sat off alone with his Ikran. He'd never been upset at you, you felt relived, letting out a deep breathe.

"Thank you Quaritch." He turned to face you now, eyes darting about your face before meeting yours. It still made your cheeks burn to make eye contact, especially this close.

"Miles. Call me Miles." His voice was soft as if he spoke only for you to hear. Putting his hand out to you.

"Miles" you repeated back. It felt strange on your tongue, most human names did. He smiled at you though, you found yourself smiling back, reaching your hand out to him too.

He laughed, taking yours where it hung and shaking it properly.

"A pleasure"

Can you do yandere hunter (from toh) and how he would act after hollow mind happened?

Yandere Hunter Headcanons (After “Hollow Mind”)

(THIS MAN NEEDS THERAPY-

Also, I should disclaim I have yet to watch “Labyrinth Runners”, so don’t expect this to be 100% accurate to that)

(Sorry for any misspellings)

(TW: mentions of gore(bones), extremely possessive behavior)

Okay so…trauma, right?

Poor boy came running to you almost immediately, cuddling you, breathing heavily, & spewing random nonsense that you couldn’t understand.

All you could understand is that Hunter was stressed & crying in your arms. But you comforted him. No, really! Just you being there & whispering “it’s going to be okay…” made him at least gain back a little of his sanity. After all, his life had just fallen apart. It was all a lie. But at least you were there for him.

After calming down, Hunter lived with you. He wasn’t going to leave, & you had no idea why. Whenever you asked the golden guard just went back to his panicked state, screaming & crying for you to not send him back—for you to not tell anyone he’s living with you!

This was for your own safety. Hunter would snap if you ever got hurt in a time like this.

He also tries to avoid everything moon, sun, or star-related. It remind him of “The Collector” kid that he saw in Belos’ mindscape. He also avoids anything that has to do with the Emperors Coven.

On a more yandere note, Hunter becomes much more possessive of you after these events, following you everywhere you go, actively fighting people you try to get near you, controlling your shopping, & keeping you home for as long as he can.

You’re all he has left & he’s not going to lose you! His mind is already broken, without you it will completely shatter.

Hunter also gets more clingy, holding you tight & keeping himself very close to you.

Unlike the Hunter you knew before, this Hunter was no longer afraid to shed blood. & he has. If anyone did so much as give you a half-hearted insult they’re blood & bones would be spread across the streets the next day.

Of course, Hunter calms down at some point, but he’s not fully healed. Don’t expect him to be as lenient with those who wrong you as he was before.

Random Emperor Belos headcanons because that's 3 am and I can't sleep

TW: ABUSE, ANIMAL ABUSE, CHILD ABUSE

Old mf is an aroace, but he just thinks that romance is a waste of time and all women are sluts and that's the reason he feels nothing to them

He did that facial scar of Hunter's while he disobayed him (aka acted like a child). Poor boy had to learn how to sew his own cuts and that's why his scars are so big. Also Philip used medical neglect as a form of punishment. Hunter has a medical kit in his room and he used medical threads to sew a golden guard's sigil on his cloak

Philip tried to instil homophobia, racism and other types of bigotry to witches but they didn't get it so he give up on it

Crusty old man smells like rotten wood and compost so he masks the odor with liters of deodorant and perfume

He shaved his beard off because the rotting on his face from palismen consumption started to attract fleas and other parasites. Also he has a lot of aromatic candles in his room to scare away flies

He is a forcefully retrained lefty

Also he is the type of person who will yell on family gatherings that abortion is a sin, although when his cat who he refused to get neutered give birth he drowned all the litter mercilessly

He used to murder and torture neigbourhood cats and dogs for his own amusement. Also other children were afraid of him because when things didn't go his way he beat them up and bit them violently. But he stopped when Caleb said he was upset with his behavior

Once Philip fed a neighbour kid poisonous berries. And when they got sick and told who did that to them adults didn't believe them because Philip looked so innocent. He used his appearance and charm a lot for his benifit and manipulated grown-ups and Caleb to get away with shit

Belo's Lord/Lady being mean to him, not even hiding your utter disgust of him

While Patches is the background with a boner, because he wants to be treated like that. You catch him and give the dullahan a glare of pure disgust.

He creams his pants and Belo is holding back tears, because his Lord/Lady is not happy with him:(

[Today I woke up and chose to abuse Belo. Yeehaw.]

TW: Verbal abuse; Physical abuse; Excusing abusive behavior.

The moment Belo devotes himself to you, he really does hang onto every word you say. As an angel abandoned by his own gods, you're the replacement. Meaning you're treated like a deity.

And what happens when your deity tells you you're a repulsive, worthless mess that should just fucking die already?

His whole world crumbles.

You tell Belo he's pointless, that he's a sad excuse of a creature, that his gods left him because they hate him, that he doesn't even deserve to be around you- And he believes it. Because his savior is always right, who is he to question you?

You can do just about anything to this angel, almost. Kick him, slap him, punch, jab, twist his wings, he won't complain. Even if his body trembles as you brand it and his pupils shrink in fear whenever you get too close, he will never deny any punishment you hand out, because it's always justified. Belo is being hurt because he did something wrong, and he'll better himself.

This is discipline, you hit him because you care about him, you correct him because you want him to do better. You're just trying to encourage him...

Belo's bad, he's incompetent, he's gross. But he'll be so much better! He'll do everything you want! You can't leave him, please! He can't do this again, he can't be abandoned again- He can't-

Just keep him. Please keep him.

What the fuck is he supposed to do otherwise?

(TW: mild physical abuse)

I wanted to talk about RL Belos’s treatment of Hunter, because while he is leagues above his canon counterpart, he has messed up in the past.

The mild physical abuse wasn’t there when Hunter was very little, but when he got older, like 6-7 years old maybe and onward, he would at times get hit as a punishment. It would mostly be something like Belos slapping the back of his head, and doing it a bit harder if he got really angry - in both cases he’d speak in a harsher tone. But while it never got severe, it still had a negative impact on Hunter, and it wasn’t uncommon for him to cry after getting hit.

Although Steven had been taking care of Hunter since he was 4, for a while, he wasn’t aware this was happening. He probably witnessed Hunter getting a light slap on the wrist for reaching for/trying to touch something he wasn’t supposed to, but that didn’t worry him. Hunter didn’t tell him anything either.

But one day, Steven finally witnessed Belos hit Hunter as punishment - which made Hunter cry, and Steven’s immediate response was to jump in to protect the kid. As much as he loved Belos, he could never excuse abusing a child. He asked Belos why he hit Hunter, and Belos told him it’s just standard discipline, and that it’s strange he seems so surprised by it.

Steven may not have known everything about parenting, but he knew hitting kids was wrong and unnecessary, so he started explaining that to Belos, who argued back, saying he doesn’t know a single person who didn’t get hit as a child. When Steven told him he never got hit, he didn’t believe it.

But his denial was starting to turn into panic. The idea that he was mistreating Hunter was bad enough, but on top of that, it would also mean he mistreated the previous Grimwalkers as well.

“..N-no.. No.. You’re lying..” - the Emperor’s voice trembled, his arms shivering.

“You can look through my memories. They never hit me” - the scout stated firmly.

“Liar!” - the monarch hunched, gripping his mask in distress.

Steven reached out his hand, trying to place it on his shoulder, but Belos quickly slapped his wrist.

While Belos took a moment to calm himself down, Steven comforted Hunter and told him he’d talk to Belos. Once Belos was calmer and more willing to talk, Steven followed through with that promise.

Now that both of them were no longer in the heat of the moment, Belos apologized for calling Steven a liar and hitting him, and Steven spoke more softly to him and with more apparent sympathy, since from everything else he has seen, it was clear Belos cared about Hunter, and must’ve only been doing this because he thought it was right.

His assumption was correct, as not only did Belos think this was just an ugly - but necessary - part of parenting, but also that he was being lenient, due to the abuse he himself experienced as a child - for example, the lashings he got for trying to write with his left hand.

He told Steven he was beaten as a kid, but was reluctant to say what he got beaten for. He thought Steven wouldn’t believe him. Though he did open up about the violence itself, and Steven comforted him. Both Hunter and Steven hugged him, and while he was hesitant to accept the affection, he ultimately did.

After that, he reaffirmed that he didn’t know any other way to parent, and that he didn’t think it was possible to raise a kid without any “discipline” involved. He thought the severity of it was the only changeable metric. Steven offered to help him learn better ways to deal with situations like that, but Belos needed to put in the effort for it to work. Steven didn’t “fix” Belos’s parenting, he helped Belos fix it himself.

It took him time to unlearn his toxic ideas and behaviors, but the first thing he learned was to stop hitting Hunter. He also had to unlearn a few emotionally abusive behaviors, which he didn’t even realize he was engaging in. This improved their relationship, though it didn’t make it perfect.

But their issues later on mostly came down to poor communication, to Belos officially making Hunter an Emperor’s Coven member and then the Golden Guard too soon, and to Belos being overprotective - and as a result, trying to plan out Hunter’s life too much. The last part was partially influenced by the tragic death of Hunter’s predecessor, Anthony.

in light of some of my other personal headcanons (tw at that link: non explicit but fairly in depth discussion of csa) about the nature of Hunter’s abuse, i just feel very emotional about the idea of him having a crush on Raine

that’s just you know a very normal developmental thing anyway, but for Hunter especially, it could be so healing. he’s never had a safe adult presence in his life, nor has he had a space to explore his own feelings of attachment and attraction, of fantasy, of romance, of how he’d like to be treated

so many of Hunter’s relationships with adults - Belos, the other coven heads, Kikimora - are marked in some way by a lack of appropriate boundaries. Belos of course just freely uses and manipulates him, but then there’s the whole child soldier thing, and the way everyone else seems to buy into that. Kiki and Lilith view him as enough of a peer to be a threat, it sounds like most of the other coven heads just ignore or dislike him

nobody treats him like a kid who’s being saddled with absolutely inappropriate responsibilities, or a kid who’s being abused right in front of them. which is all part and parcel of Belos’s manipulation, isolating Hunter in order to make him easier to abuse and to cut him off from potential allies or sources of support

and then enter Raine, someone who clearly cares about others a whole lot (even though they also seem to find other people sort of exhausting and anxiety-inducing), someone with a strong moral code, a teacher who has worked with students before, someone who understands the appropriate ways of interacting with a kid

it’s just nice to think about Hunter getting to have that inner fantasy, getting to imagine something that’s just for himself, and then also getting to experience the other very necessary part of the whole “fantasizing about safe adults” thing where part of what makes it accessible and good is the fact that there’s no risk of it actually happening, that this lives only and exclusively inside his own head, and that externally even if he tried to cross a boundary with his own behavior (because lmao, what does he know about boundaries?) Raine themself is someone who would enforce appropriate boundaries and treat him the way they should, as an adult friend and mentor

#also it is just like. unspeakably cute to me #let hunter have nice things 2kforever #let hunter experience adults being safe and appropriate 2kforever #hunter toh #raine whispers #the owl house

TW: Child abuse. Speculation on the Coven Heads’ knowledge of Hunter and Belos’ relationship, and also the Collector:

Kinda headcanony in the worst way but I think Terra and Kiki knew about the grimwalkers but Lily probably didn't. If Terra was already working for Belos in the 90s she probably knew 90s Hunter. Belos sheltered them pretty heavily but it appears that Hunter is generally allowed to be around the Coven Heads and she probably saw 90s Hunter "disappear" and then our Hunter show up. I also don't doubt, since Kiki listens to everything, that she knew Hunter was a grimwalker and that made her less inclined to care when he was being abused and be more okay with enacting violence against him bc Belos already does that and “he’s not real anyways”.

I imagine that Hettie knew something was up, even if she wasn't there as long, because she's the healing coven head and Hunter probably never went to the healing coven (he has a box of supplies in his room) which feels very weird given the amount of injuries he has and how extreme they are. I think she probably was like: Belos’ business isn’t our business and I want to stay alive, and I imagine this is true of Terra as well (and I mean, Terra loves to harm kids so like... probably didn’t care).

Lily only saw Hunter at work so she didn't realize what was going on for him and Hunter says he didn't spend time with the other scouts. Hunter was kind of like the random kid that Belos was saddling her with on the weekends. She felt he didn’t earn his place there, and she probably didn’t see his injuries because he wears his mask constantly in the EC. Raine for sure had no idea any of this was going on, they were only a coven head for a few months and even though it seems like they had a friendly relationship with Hunter, I doubt anybody told them and Hunter wouldn’t’ve either because he didn’t see it as an abusive relationship even though he was upset by it until long after he escaped.

The more questionable ones are Adrian, Darius, and Eber because on one hand I’d be surprised if they hadn’t picked up on something. Adrian is extremely cruel to Hunter and takes pleasure in hurting him which I’ve seen speculated as that he thinks Hunter is a nepotism baby. But it could also be that Adrian is in the same boat as Kiki where he feels able to harm Hunter more easily because he views Hunter as lesser than him or not as a person.

Darius 100% knew about the grimwalkers or at the very least had extremely strong suspicions even if he didn’t have a name for it. I think Eber and Darius were in the same boat. Darius also might’ve known that Belos was an abuser but I don’t imagine he would’ve just stood by if he thought Hunter was actively being abused. I also think there’s a level of “I can’t care because I know it’s going to destroy me” with Darius but then he does give in to that and cares, and it seems like he’s in contact with Hunter for a period of time between ASIAS and Hollow Mind where their relationship really improved. I think Darius might’ve had misdirected anger at Hunter because Belos treats him openly good and talks about how Hunter is his favorite, etc. which might’ve made Darius think that Hunter wasn’t in as much danger as he actually was and driven some of that resentment. But Darius kind of checks himself I think, he realizes that Hunter isn’t a lapdog, he sees Hunter as a fully fleshed out person who he misunderstood and while it isn’t great that he was pretty mean to Hunter before this turn, I think there’s a huge level of forgiveness there because Belos really fucked everyone up.

Okay and finally really fast... Hunter and the Collector. The Collector does seem sympathetic to Hunter’s struggles despite seemingly taking joy in the fact that Belos likes to hurt him. The Collector points out Belos’ behavior a few times and seems a little self-aware about his participation but ultimately doesn’t care because his own freedom and getting to enact violence is more important to him. I think the Collector is a little weirded out by it but also finds it entertaining. Ultimately he views Hunter as another toy to play with and see how far Belos can push him until he breaks. But there’s also a little bit of that “I’m starting to think that you make these things just so you can destroy them”... kind of questioning Belos but ultimately not really caring.

ooc info

hello, my name is ana (she/her) from gmt+1! i’m on summer break so expect me to be as active as i can!!!! also please bear with me because thiago is a new muse, so i’m still figuring him out which is why this intro might be a mess. so if you’d like to plot please hit me up

01. stats

NAME: thiago martim borges madeira

GENDER: cis male

PLACE OF BIRTH: belo horizonte, brazil

DATE OF BIRTH: february 1, 1997

AGE: twenty-four

SEXUAL ORIENTATION: bisexual

OCCUPATION: caddy

02. quick bio

born in belo horizonte, brazil; thiago lived a somewhat comfortable life. his father was a very good surgeon and his mother worked in marketing.

being an only child, it shouldn’t be a surprised that he was very spoiled and as he grew older his attitude showed the consequences of never denying him anything.

thiago never had a plan in mind. whenever people asked him about his future he would say that he “would worry about that later” but later never came.

by his senior year of high school, thiago was doing everything but worrying about post graduation. he was out there throwing parties, or going to parties, skipping important classes to go and have fun with people he had just met.

tw drugs & alcohol: for most of his adolescence, thiago was either drunk or stoned. his parents knew but they pretty much said “i pretend i do not see it” and did nothing to make something out of their kid.

by some miracle he managed to graduate (that miracle being his dad paying for his diploma pretty much).

just a few weeks after his graduation, his father was offered a position in a hospital in ohio and the family left brazil for cleveland.

thiago absolutely hateeeeed cleveland. he thought it was the most boring place on earth and he wondered why of all the cities in the country, his father had chosen this one?

because of the move, he didn’t have time to apply for a university in the us (not like he was planning attending university at all) so in order to teach his son a lesson, he made him find a job.

in a span of a year, thiago had 15 jobs because for one or another reason he kept getting fired. he was reckless, rude, irresponsible or arrived at work drunk or high.

sick of it, his father threatened him to cut him off if this behavior continued and pretty much forced him to apply to college.

to everyone’s surprised he was admitted into chapman university where he chose studying communication and journalism because it sounded “easy”

loyal to his old ways, thiago didn’t change and pretty much just pretended to attend classes and he even forged his grades to show his dad that he was reformed man

the whole ruse lasted for almost four years (two of which he hadn’t been enrolled in school and he spent the money his parents’ sent to him in parties, drugs and alcohol).

but graduation was upon him and there was no way he could keep lying and while he was planning an elaborated ploy to make his parents believe he had graduated, they stopped by to surprise him

however, they took the surprise to find out their son had been lying.

thiago and his dad got into a big fight and he cut him off. however, his mom still to this day sends him an allowance every month.

he moved to new york six months ago and got a part time job at highlands as a caddy four months ago. surprisingly, he’s been able to keep it.

03. headcanons

he’s an experienced golfer. used to go and golf with his dad every weekend which is why the job as a caddy seems to suit him perfectly.

thiago can play the piano and before he was training to become a classic pianist but that stopped when he turned 13 and now he only plays as a party trick.

probably has read 3 books in his life and he hates subtitles in movies

lives in a one bedroom apartment in brooklyn which is way too expensive for what it is

he once got arrested in ibiza

thiago is extremely afraid of cats. his grandmother had a cat when he was younger who scratched him and left a mark on the right side of his forehead. since then he’s terrified of cats.

04. personality

okay i suck at writing personalities so have this poor bullet list

not the smartest but hey at least he’s cute

very flirty like sometimes i wonder “boy, do you even have some general knowledge?” probably nope

simple-minded, like anything too deep and complex will just make his last two brain cells collapse.

has really good people skills which is why he gets very good tips.

allergic to plans. pretty much the human embodiment of yolo

doesn’t care about following the rules, nothing can come between him and his self-indulgence

it’s hard to really form a deep bond with him but if you get through the layers, he is a loyal friend.

05. wanted connections

HERE.
