Chapter Text
“I want all of you to pick a color!” Scott calls, returning from somewhere,
“Sage!” Shelby calls
“Dark Blue!” Pyro hollers,
Owen walks up beside him “orange” mutters,
“Why are you acting like it’s weird, is it cause it doesn’t match the spooky?” Scott asks pokes
“Shut up” he snorts, and rolls his eyes, walking back over to the other two.
Scott reveals a case of gems with practically every color known to the realm and takes out 6 colors, dark blue, ice blue, sage, orange, black on the points and a bright scarlet in the center and inserts all five colored gems into a star necklace charm
“AWE, that’s adorable” Shelby says trying not to move as Pyro braids her hair,
“She’s right that is so sweet momma” Pyro says smiling
“Those colors clash so much” Owen laughs “It fits our little family”
“I’m going to ignore the first statement, but it’s like a reminder that I’ll always hold you lot close” Scott says presenting the case of gems and charms “What would you guys like?”
“I’m not doing that” Owen stares at him,
“You’re all doing it Owen” Scott hums
“Could I do an bracelet with ice blue gems?” Pyro asks
“Me too! But could I do an arm cuff?” Shelby bounces, being freed from sitting still, “Pyro! You did so well! I love it!” admiring the fluffy braid he’d put it in,
“Thank you! I’m glad!” Pyro responds
“Owen? What are you thinking?” Scott asks setting the stones,
“Fine, I’ll do it, can I do a hair piece with black stones but have a ice blue in the middle?” Owen asks with a fond sigh
“Why are all of you asking for blue and not the colors you said earlier?” he said oblivious and grabbing the black out, of which he was met with unimpressed looks from all three
“You” they all said, some more sarcastic than others,
“awe, you guys are sweet” he says insetting Owen’s bat shaped hair piece,
“Hey Scott?” Shelby asks glancing at Scott’s bun, obviously plotting something
“Yes dear” he hands Owen the hair piece
“How long is your hair?” They ask with a hum
“About 55 inches I believe, why?”
Shelby and Pyro light up, shocked and excited “Can we braid your hair?!”
“Sure?” He unpins it and long, bright blue hair unfurls
“How is your hair so long?!” Owen asks shooketh
“I mean, I take care of it? You know, what do you also have Owen?”
“No. No y’all are not going to-”
By morning, all four had their hair braided, custom jewelry and Scott brushed each of their wings for their bats. Afterwards, they all decided to pile on Scott and fall asleep, something of which he was not complaining about <3
