Summary
What it says on the tin, basically! Oro adopts Lost Kin. Includes: fights to eat food, trying to sit still, writing lessons, nail lessons, bubbles, gambling (Oro literally teaches Lost Kin to gamble), honey, and lots of cuddles and hugs. This is a parent-raising-a-child story, and everything in this story is gen. It's about familial relationships and love, so all intimacy is familial and platonic in nature.
I PROMISE that, while there is sadness and tragedy, there WILL be a happy ending! I couldn't emotionally handle it myself, so while I love writing hurt, there will always be comfort and fluff to follow. :)
(I recommend obtaining the Dream No More ending before reading this in order to avoid any unwanted spoilers. Chapter one does have an on-screen suicide, but you can skip that by jumping to the end of the Hollow Knight poem.)
Misc Notes:
*Lost Kin is the main character, but they do not have a name for its majority. Most, if not all 'they/thems' refer to, well, them. :)
*The watchful one is Ghost/The Knight, who we play as in game
*The gentle one is the Greenpath VesselSeries
