Chapter Text
Scott had been dreaming, he had been dreaming about a man. The man was so handsome, so gorgeous.. Scott would be jealous of the man if he wasn’t in love. The man had golden blonde hair, chocolate brown eyes, and usually wore a green sweater.
They would talk for what seemed like hours, the man would let Scott rant on and on and on. The man had a soft voice that would sometimes have cute voice cracks, he was always so sweet as well. Sometimes the man would rant as well, he would rant about his hatred for salmon, his love for cod, he would rant about anything.
Anything but his identity. Only thing was Scott needed to find a suitor, it was to be an arranged marriage with the suitor he choose. But Scott just wanted the man in his dreams, Scott could love no one else. But one day there comes a man, as Scott looks at his suitors a man comes. He speaks as softly and as sweetly as the man in his dreams with the same chocolate brown eyes and golden blonde hair. He makes Scott’s heart beat like the man in the dream makes Scott’s heart beat.
And this man goes by the name of “The CodFather”, he is the emperor of the Cod Empire who are constantly at war with the salmon. Scott knew this was his one chance, his one opportunity, so he took it. He declared that he wanted to marry the CodFather.
And though his advisors tried to reject the idea seeing as the CodFather didn’t have good resources Scott pointed out the allies. The allies of the Cod Empire were some of the most powerful, the Ocean Empire, Mezalea Empire, Pixandria, and the Overgrown. Sure Rivendell was already allies with the Overgrown but he wasn’t allies with Mezalea, Pixandria, or the Ocean Empire.
Eventually they agreed upon it purely because of the allies. Though they were perplexed why Scott was so eager when he saw the CodFather. Scott just told them to be happy he choose someone and that kept them quiet. Resigning to his room Scott looked out the window as the CodFather stood looking up at the snow in the middle of the town square. Scott had a perfect view from here and he loved it. He watched as the man looked up in wonder and delight.
Scott rested his head against the window, his antlers making a small clinking noise. He could feel him smile and blush as he watched the man giggle and play in the snow. Scott became even happier with his decision, he remembered the man in his dreams pointing out how he was a cod hybrid and being oh so proud of it.
The CodFather did the same, it was so sweet, so adorable. Scott loved it, he loved that little bit of confidence and the way he eagerly grinned. It was so adorable, so sweet, Scott was honestly head over heels for the CodFather.
After a while the CodFather’s advisor and guards came from an inn. They talked for a bit before walking back into the inn, the blinding snow making it harder to see them, it was most likely going to blizzard. Soon after Scott got up from his chair and changed into his night clothes. Scott hoped he would see the man in his dreams again tonight, oh how he hoped so. Laying onto his bed he quickly fell asleep, soon entering a pitch black room with dandelions and poppy’s. Looking around Scott couldn’t see the man so he sat and waited for him.
And eventually he arrived, he arrived and they began to talk, talking for what seemed to be hours.

Scott woke up the next morning and was told that he would be going on a date with the CodFather. Scott went and changed. He wore a ruffly button up and brown vest.
He wore brown boots, brown knee high socks, and a long dark brown skirt. Lastly he put on his crown and a pair of dark brown gloves. Walking out he was met with his riding stag along with the CodFather who also had one.
Scott was told where to go and so he and the CodFather got on their stags and started to ride. Scott happily waved as he passed by citizens, getting waves and smiles in return. Eventually they made it into the mountains were the continued until they met an entrance to a cave. They tied up their stags to a pole that was there and went inside. They walked inside, a beautiful and luscious cave being inside. There was a small picnic table and a spring that came from the mountains.
Racing towards the spring the CodFather squealed in excitement, causing Scott to giggle. Huffing at Scott’s response he eventually trudged over to the picnic blanket were Scott now sat at. “So.. why did you pick me Smajor?”.
