    Summary

    A minute had passed when Luz made a small, almost silent noise of disgust. “Spare the rod, spoil the child.” she read.

     

    Hunter perked up, “I know that one!” all eyes went to him. Luz’s lips went into a tight frown.

     

    “Oh yeah?” she said carefully, eyes flickering around his face.

    Summary

    It didn’t take him another half second to rip the door open, nearly pulling the old wood off of its hinges. The door handle snapped under his hand and hung by a single buckle. He didn’t bother closing it behind him.

    Willow was in the same spot she had laid down in. Luz had a careful arm around Gus, they sat curled up on the couch watching closely. Amity and Camila were on either side of Willow. Amity ran her hands through her hair while Camila braced her weight to her chest. Willow was wailing out a mix between screaming and sobbing. And she kept saying his name.

    Hunter died in Willows arms, he came back, but she’s still grieving

    Summary

    Above all else right now, he just so wishes they had time – time for him to hook his arms under the crook of her knees and back and take the weight of her up off her feet so that she could focus on the weight in her chest, time for them both to cry for longer than a measly few minutes (what a joke, he can’t help but scoff), time to clutch his chest in gratefulness and grief and gold.

    But they don’t have that right now.

    Instead, the two of them sit in silence, Hunter watching (although he’s not really watching anymore, even when Gus and that boy start tussling in the grass, not when there’s green, green, green filling up the corner of his eye), Willow pressing her back up against the rough, hewn bark of the fir behind them so that she can stare upwards between the prickly red fronds. The sprindles are sharp and sweet-smelling, swollen with sap as they are, and the scent breathes into them even this far below. It’s a smell Hunter’s come to associate with the isles. What a comfort it is, to sit with it again. The fragrant pines of the human realm were nice, but not enough.

    Not enough.

    Summary

    Hunter takes a deep breath and feels a thousand needles prickling under his skin. A familiar red bird moves slightly against his side from where he hides under his cloak. He moves to speak and his ribs strain against layers of fabric constricting the masses of flesh, feathers, and muscle sprouting for his back.

    Belos digs his claws into Hunter’s shoulder and it’s a miracle that he doesn’t feel the fear radiating off of him.

    “I have nothing to hide”

    He wonders if the lie would taste less bitter if it wasn’t spoken by a mouth that tastes of blood.

    Aka- in a world where witches grow hybrid traits from the animal making up their palisman when it bonds with them, Hunter finds himself plucking feathers, holding back chirps, and binding his wings in order to keep himself alive. After all, Belos would never forgive him for having (and hiding) Flapjack.

    And wooo, does this look like it’ll be a long one!

    Hunter gets taken in, kicking and screaming, by the Rebels after they found him sulking under a tree, in the freezing cold.

    He just now needs to make accepting their help, the hardest thing in the world.

    "Oh, score!" Hunter bubbled. He gave Gus a high-five. "A whole booth!"

    "Yeah, you never see that," Gus agreed, crossing his arms. "Go nuts, dude. Your mom gave you money for a reason."

    "So what are these again?" Lilith asked hesitantly. "Model kits?"

    Summary

    Later in life, much later, Hunter would realize that he had never once treated it like a full sentence. There was always a caveat, a modifier, a question. Something to soften the edge.
    Even still, Titan, how Hunter clung to it.
    You know I love you.
    Haven’t I loved you, Hunter?
    Is this how you repay my love for you?
    It didn’t matter what it was couched in, what insult or reprimand or obfuscation he had to swallow alongside it, hearing Belos say the word love in his general direction could sustain his faith and determination for months at a time, which was lucky, because it often had to.

    An inverted 5+1 things focused on people telling Hunter they love him.

    Summary

    It takes a few minutes for Luz to emerge, and Hunter straightens up instantly. Her hands are shoved in the pockets of Eda’s grudgeby jacket and her head is low and her shoulders are tense and shaking. Something is wrong here, and just a moment later Hunter sees what.

     

    A sharp peal of laughter announces the small group that follows Luz out, led by a girl with orange hair pulled back in a ponytail. She’s holding something out in her hand, and the others in her group lean closer to Luz, sneers twisting their faces even as they continue to laugh.

     

    Rage flares in Hunter’s chest. “Hey!” He barks, pushing off the railing and up the steps. His golden guard voice comes back to him instantly, and for once he welcomes the threatening rumble of it in his throat.

    Summary

    “...there’s this kid I’m fostering.”

    Except for that, which stopped him before he could even start. He was sure the confusion showed, because the man smiled nervously again, and he didn’t lean closer, or whisper, but his voice did drop in tone a bit, not as audible over the clamor of other patrons.

    “She, um,” He started to raise a hand, paused, then tapped his left cheek, “she has scars on her face, too.”

    Summary

    “Have you ever thought about dying?”

    It was late, sometime between midnight and sunrise when the world slept quiet and peaceful beneath the gently blinking eyes of the stars. Hunter hummed from where he stood leaning back against the counter, just out of arms reach from Luz’s hunched-over form sitting at the table with her head resting on crossed arms. His eyes stayed firmly on the glass of water in his hand, and she watched him swirl it around, waiting for an answer without impatience or urgency because she knew she would get one, because he always answered her even if the answer was ‘I don’t know’, because this was the millionth conversation like this they’d had since getting stuck in the human realm and they’d both already asked and answered far worse questions than that.

    OR Luz and Hunter have a midnight talk about death, grief, and questions that were better left unanswered.

    Instead, he froze halfway down, his suddenly stiff limbs nearly causing him to trip over himself with the force of his stop, because Camila was standing in front of the open desk drawer, holding some very familiar crumpled-up papers.

    And she was reading them.

    "I understand sarcasm," Hunter said, sounding offended. He crossed his arms. "You didn't do the voice thing."

    Darius stared at him. "The what?"

    Hunter put his arms in the air and gave his hands a sarcastic little wave. "I GuEsS I'LL hAvE tO sToP cOmInG oVeR, tHeN," he said in the most over the top and comical parody of sarcasm that Darius had ever heard in his life.
