Starlight (Gil x OC Oneshot)
Clare is Claytonās daughter. Clayton and Gaston are hunting partners; they go on hunting trips together on the Isle while Clare stays behind to run her fatherās black market where he sells animal pelts and furs, jewelry, and illegal artefacts (dragon scales, mermaid tears etc).
Like Gil, Clare isnāt very smart and not necessarily evil. She likes wearing animal furs and skins Clayton brings back from previous hunting trips. Her outfits never match and sheās not what youād call fashionable, but sheās sweet and always see the bright side of things.
Because of his lack for a high IQ, Gaston always looks down on Gil and leaves him behind to go hunting, instead bringing Gilās older brothers Gaston Jr. and Gaston III along for the trips. So Gil hangs with Clare and helps her to run the market. Theyāre childhood friends and have always been close. Thatāll be all. Carry on!

Clare: *sitting on the roof of the market and staring up at the night sky*
Gil: *climbs up and notices her there* Oh, hey Clare!
Clare: *stares up at the moon and sighs dreamily* Just counting the moon. Do you wanna join me?
Gil: Oh, I canāt. I can only count to one.
Clare: Thereās only one moon.
Gil: *excitedly* So I can count with you?!
Clare: Yeah, of course! Sit down *pats the spot next to her*
Gil: Ok! *sits beside her and stares at the moon with her* ā¦ One.
*Thereās a long silence*
Gil: ā¦ Now what do we do?
Clare: Now we just count again.
Gil/Clare: *counting together* One ā¦ One ā¦ One ā¦ One ā¦ One ā¦ One ā¦
Harry: *watching them from the building next door with a telescope* Ugh, heās never going to ask her out at this rate.
Uma: Let me see! *snatches the telescope out of his hands and peers into it* Damn it! If only I could make out what theyāre saying.
Harry: Why donāt we just leave him there and find something better to do? Iāve seen some goblins we can terrorise if you want. Captainās choice *smiles and winks flirtatiously*
Uma: Well the captain says we should stay and make sure the idiot doesnāt get himself killed *looks through the telescope again*
Harry: *rolls his eyes* Itās not like heās going anywhereā
Harry: Come on, Uma *runs his hook through her braids* Have some fun, will you?
Uma: *stares at him with narrowed eyes* You do know that piece of junk is unnecessary, donāt you?
Harry: This aināt junk! *brandishes the hook*
Uma: It is so! Itās just a hook! You can easily get a thousand hooks like this from a blacksmith. Face it, you have way too much co-dependency on it *grabs the hook and proceeds to pull it out of his hand*
Harry: Uma, no! *tries holding on as tightly as he can while pushing her away*
Uma: Trust me! Youāll thank me one day! *manages to take the hook and throw it off the building*
Harry: NO!!!! MY HOOK!!!! *jumps off the building to get it*
Uma: Harry, itās just a hook! HARRY! *takes off after him*
Clare: *sees Harryās hook sail through the air* Look! A shooting star! *alerts Gil* Quick! Make a wish, make a wish! *squeezes her eyes shut tightly together and says her wish aloud* I wish to have the ability to eat cake! *opens her eyes and looks at Gil* What about you? Whatās your wish??
Gil: Uhh, I wish ā¦ I wish ā¦ Uhh, umm ā¦ *looks at her in shock* I donāt know what to wish for!
Clare: Well, what do you want the most right now?
Gil: Well ā¦ I want the girl I like to ā¦ to say yes to ā¦ a maybe-sorta-kinda-not-really hang out with me to go ā¦ fishing ā¦ Or beach-combingāshe likes both.
Clare: And whoās this girl that you like??
Gil: Well ā¦ sheās actually with us right now.
Clare: *glances around suspiciously before gasping dramatically* Are you psychic?! Can you see ghosts?!
Gil: No no no sheās alive! Sheās just ā¦ sitting next to ā¦ to me, right now.
Gil: Would you, umm ā¦ maybe-sorta-kinda-not-really hang out with me, as ā¦ as more than friends??
Clare: *stares at him while frowning*
Gil: *starts mumbling nervously* Or if donāt want to, thatās fine. We can just sit here and keep counting the moon if thatās what you wantā
Clare: *kisses his cheek and stopping him in mid sentence* What are you talking about?! Iād love to!
Gil: *blushes and gazes at her in disbelief* Really?! But I-I thought maybe youād like smart guys more andā
Clare: Are you kidding me?! I hate smart guys! I like stupid guys!
Gil: *realises what sheās saying and gets excited* Iām a stupid guy!
Clare: The stupidest guy Iāve ever met! *squeezes him affectionately and stands up* Tomorrow, letās go fishing! Then we can count the moon together again!
Clare: Iāve gotta close up the market now, but you can stay if you want. See you later Gil *skips off and climbs down the side of the building*
Gil: *rests his head in his hand and sighs dreamily*
Uma: *climbs onto the building beside Gil with Harry and dripping wet* Oh good, youāre still alive. I had to stop Harry here *nudges Harry* from losing an arm to those killer sharks andāwhatās gotten into you?! Why are you smiling like that?! Stop it! I hate it!
Gil: Oh nothing. Just scored a maybe-sorta-kinda-not-really hang out with the coolest girl ever *watches Clare close the market pensively*
Harry: So she said yes, then??
Gil: Well ā¦ She didnāt say yes, but she did say āIād love to!ā I think that counts!
