Summary
Just my interpretation of Malcolm’s inner thoughts during the end of season 2 and his father’s ‘new self’.
Nothing earth shattering, just totally hooked again and sad that we aren’t seeing the fallout of this shocking blow to Malcolm’s sense of self/reality. Poor guy needs a hug.
Unbetaed, rough draftish

Summary
‘Is the prophecy true?’
He felt his heart freeze and plummet when his father abruptly changed the subject.‘It’s your birthday…’ Marcus said ducking his head, voice raw with emotion.
A rabid wolf is put down, and Nathan is secretly relieved.
It’s not until he’s finally caught up in sleep, weeks later, and he lying in another strange bed between Annalise and Gabriel, does he realize and startle in horror. His father never answered the question.
AU to books.

Summary
There was a sort of irony to this heart eating business, Nathan reckoned. So many witches had non-combative gifts that you honestly have no clue what they were when you finally had their heart in front of you. You never knew what you were going to get, with those witches…
Sometimes he wouldn’t know for weeks to months, like whatever bloody power he gained from one of the Dutch Fairborns that attacked them with an automatic rifle in Denmark. He still didn’t know what it was. Nathan was beginning to wonder if some witches could be born Fain like the Squibs in Harry Potter.
