this is what I'm talking about!

why are you guys so cute and precious with your asks? I just wanna call y'all cute little names cuz you make me smile

enough of that, let's get some cottagecore witch babe!

Alcina Dimitrescu

the woman knows the rumors of the witch that lives deep in the forest, she remembers the days when that same forest was inhabited by your kind, now only you remain

but the rumors are far from the truth, you don't have a face covered in warts, or needle-like teeth. You are beautiful and warm like the sun she remembers from the youth

she had allowed you into the Castle during a rather harsh storm, sure she would have a new maiden for her wine, but she was somehow dissuaded when you gave her a smile

A kitchen witch is what you said you were

"Magic can be infused into meals too, all I need is to have an intent and will"

she watched in quiet amazement as you offered to cook dinner, unmoved by touching human flesh, laughing and saying "Great-grandma used to do worst, my Lay!"

the Lady takes a quick interest in you, deciding to court you and pursue something more meaningful

it becomes clear to the maids that try SHOULD NOT touch the altar you have placed in the kitchen

you might be kind but you won't tolerate people touching your stuff, something the lady finds rather attractive

Donna Beneviento

being shy and preferring to stay on the sidelines, your relationship with Donna starts when she catches you foraging the area around her house for herbs and roots

it starts simple, sharing small stories and allowing Angie to sit in your lap when coming to visit her

Donna cries in joy when you give her the gift of a glamour, the scar that tormented her for so long, gone with the wave of your hand

it's important for her, so it's important for you

Angie becomes your small little helper, throwing suggestions when ask who you should hex next

Salvatore Moreau

you and Sal have been friends for the longest time, he enjoys the stories you tell him about the outside world and you love to sit and listen to him ramble about his siblings

he marvels when you show him small illusions or explain what kind of potions you can do, hes eager to learn and even help you

mother Miranda is almost impressed someone like you would even spare time in something like that

you have never been one to be vengeful, but hearing Heisenberg call sweet Sal a "moronic freak" as you seeing red

Alcina and Angie both laugh when the metal man starts spitting toads, pieces of rats, and other vermin

"That will keep happening if you don't apologize to Sal and if it's a half-assed apology? IT.WILL.GET.WORST"

that week Sal comes to you, rather excited that his big brother has been acting nice to him

Karl Heisenberg

the first time he sees you, is...uncomfortable for you

you are covered in sheep's blood, the animal's liver in your hand, and about to be used for divination

the village people hate you, so it was easy to confuse the man for a hunter, finally sent out to end your life. Instead he asks if you are eating the whole sheep

Heisenberg is rather...odd

he doesn't bat an eye when you appear at his door covered in mud and what, he suspects, must be blood

he does find joy in the way you can curse Alcina and he gets to see the results, coming back to your hut to tell you how miserable she looks

Yes 🗿💦💦

-breaks thru the door- I HAVE DONE IT, YALL!!

Mother Miranda

Lady Dimitrescu

Salvatore Moreau

Donna Beneviento

Karl Heisenberg

oh...oh my poor gay heart

the Village is aware of the existence of a 5th lord, the daughter of a great merchant family, provider to the other houses

but it's rare to see you leave your mansion, the maids that work for you speak fondly of you, how you treat them with respect and kindness, but they also mention Lord Hisenberg

it seems the man can be found either in his factory or sitting in your studio, talking about anything happening in the factory

hes here today, you are reviewing the latest orders placed by the other Lords, trading pacts with the Duke and Karl is just there moving around and looking at you, saying the raunchiest things ever

Y/N: Kaaaaarl~! shut up, I'm trying to review my books

Karl: and I would love to hear you say my name like that again in another...setting

Y/N: KAAARL!

Karl: just like that honey, exactly like that, that sounds so hot

at the beginning of your friendship, he tested the waters, not wanting to make you uncomfortable or offend you, asking how you felt about him saying stuff like that

you know he's just joking around and doesn't mean what he says

Alcina drops by often too, she enjoys your calmed nature and how easy is to talk with you

but seeing Heisenberg in the tea room is enough to set her off, she won't start a scene in your home, so she smiles at you and ignores the man

Lady D: My daughters have been so pleased with the gifts you sent them last time, they want you to come by and show you how they look with those capes

Karl: I would love to see you in nothing but a cape Y/N

Y/N: LORD HEISENBERG, I BEG YOU PARDON?

Karl: I haven't done anything and you wanna beg already?

Lady D: Why must you so disgusting, you filthy-mouthed dog? can't you even respect your host or most you try to be as nasty as you can?!

Karl laughs and lifts his hands in fake surrender

-distant gay screaming-

Alcina as seen you speak in the Duke before, a handful of documents tucked under your arm, but she must say, she never paid enough attention to you

the 5th Lord, Lady Y/L, a shy little thing that works restlessly to improve the quality of life for your fellow Lords, intelligent and well mannered with a good head over your shoulders

almost scurrying around and trying to keep to the sidelines, for some reason hiding close to that man child of Heisenberg

but you are one of the most beautiful women she has ever seen in her whole life

her maids and yours occasionally talk and share information, that's how she learns how much your staff loves to work for you, the sweetness of your voice and how contagious your laugh is

so she begins to talk with you, complimenting your work and looks, sending you gifts with the help of your maids

her heart skips a beat when she sees you wear a jeweled choker she had custom made for you

then you respond to her gifts, sending lavishing dresses and gowns, scented oils and perfumes, small little notes declaring "I thought lavender would suit you"

each note is tucked away in her private chambers for her to read later

your hands, although smaller, feel perfect in hers

you become easily flustered when she kisses your knuckles or face, something Lady D has grown to crave

its not a secret that her daughters adore you!

the 3 girls coming fast to meet you whenever you come for a "business" meeting, they can see how happy you make their mother and how lovely you two look together

ONE TIRED METAL MAN AND FRIED ANNOYING PEOPLE COMING RIGHT UP!

did you thought that waking up at unholy hours of the night to pacify a wailing infant was bad? OOOH HOOOOOONEY~ that was just a prelude

the moment this child is in the middle of the horrid "I have no idea what this green thing is but imma eat it!" phase and the terrible moment when an infant realize that "yoooo! I have like LEGS? that I can use to move around"? That's IT, you are in for the worst

You two are equally stressed out at this point, this kid has too much curiosity in that tiny body and is constantly trying to go places they shouldn't be or touching things they are not supposed to

Like the lycans or the varcolacs

Not only Karl is growing paranoid of Miranda and the idea of her taking your child if they prove to be of use to her plans

Now that the cat is out of the bag, he has to deal with Angie trying to play with this fragile tiny human, Donna asking the reader if she can just...have the baby for a bit to try on some clothes, Alcina who now has decided to make him suffer even more

"Oh, sweet Y/N...you know that my home is always open to you and your little one, right? If you need a place to stay and be away from the mortal trap this animal calls home, I will welcome you both with open arms"

"CAN YOU NOT? We are perfectly fine in our place, I don't want those things you call daughters, touching MY child"

Moreau seems to be the most chill one, he's quick to learn how to hold a baby, and due to his height, the kiddo finds it easier to grab Sal's hand and try to walk, key word, TRY

Maybe is not that big of a surprise that the kid is intimidated by Dimitrescu, for a normal sized adult, she's tall...for the little one she's just ginormous

the first steps of the kid are not even seen by you or Karl, both working hard to babyproof the living quarters and clear the entire entrance of anything that might hurt and/or kill your child

the Duke is the one to witness the whole thing

from the elevator, he hears the telltale of young innocent laughter, slowly the stompy steps of a child and finally the child of the hour, one tiny hand using the wall as a crutch

"Well...if it isn't the Heir of the Heisenberg house, how can I help such a young patron today?"

the kid has been held many times by the large man, so they light up upon hearing the familiar voice, squealing in delight and letting go of the wall to run up to him

By the time the reader notices that you can't hear your child, is been a good while "Heis...why can't I hear the baby playing?"

You two start a wild goose chase through the factory and the outside, but there are no tiny footprints, thankfully there's no blood or torn clothes

Heisenberg is the one to find the kid with the Duke, the little rugrat babbling like crazy while the merchant nods and answers with whatever comes to mind

he suddenly feels his age crashing down on him, a child just made him feel the fear and terror he makes the villagers feel, and it emotionally hurts

looking at his kid from here, he can see that nothing is missing, there's no blood anywhere, their clothes are clean and so are they

then it clicks, the knees on the overalls are CLEAN, which means that the kid didn't crawled...his child walked all the from the living area

...neither of you saw the kid give their first steps

Karl grunts and picks up his kid, who smiles and claps when dad is there "I'll pay whatever ridiculous prize you want but you won't tell Y/N or anyone that my kid walked all the way here, deal"

"Of course, I would expect no less from you Lord Heisenberg, you know everything I have to offer has a prize, that includes my silence"

I like how you think anon

this one is gonna be fun and LONG

Let's start by pretending Ethan wasn't just a human chia pet, but the mold made him mutate like the Lords, he has no powers but his body is just...sturdier

that being said...

after Miranda's announcement of finding the perfect vessel and presenting Rose to the Lords, you could tell Heisenberg was extremely close to start his rebellion in that moment, what stopped him? that your child is waiting for the return of their parents and you still have no way out of everything goes wrong

it feels grotesque to receive a piece of such an innocent baby in a flask

through the creep vine you both learn about Ethan being in the Village, the father of the stolen child, you can see the expression in Karl's face shift into one of hope, he knows something you don't

when Winters is brought to the church you both play your role of sadistic monsters, giving a "show" for Donna and Moreau, but you have made sure there are useful things "left behind" by previous participants of your little game

with bated breaths, you follow his progress, feeling more and more hope with each Lord he takes down

Heisenberg cheers loudly when Dimitrescu goes down, lifting you off the ground and howling harder when only Moreau remains

He knows that, Ethan won't take it well when he arrives at the factory, so you offer to be the one to welcome him, reminding Karl to keep his cool and be straight with his answers and go to the point

NO THREATENING THE GUESS WITH THROWING HIM TO THE STURM

Ethan is, indeed, shaken up when he comes into the factory and the first thing he sees is you, he saw you at the church, why are you waiting for him?

"I must say, under other circumstances, it would have been...nice to meet you, but there's no time to lose, come with me, please"

he's hesitant, which is understandable, but he follows, a hand always hovering over his gun and eyes following your every move

when you reach Karl's center of command, you are careful with asking to sit and please listen to what you two have to say

"That boulder punching guy and his people are here, right Ethan?" Karl has his back to the other man "You see...me and Y/N...we need your help"

"My help!? after everything, each and everyone single one of you psychos put through?!"

But Karl is not listening, he starts to tell his story...your story, how Miranda took you both and used you like she's trying to use Rose, but you two were defective, useless, he wants revenge and is willing to do anything to get it

There's desperation in his voice but Winters seems unmoved by it, later you will admit that what you did was manipulative but as long as it works

Both men see you leave and come back with your child in arms, the kid is a bit older than Rose, the gray hair and factions that resemble yours is all that Ethan needs to know, Heisenberg as a child

they are vastly different but, he's like Ethan, he just wants to put his family in a safe place, so he accepts with the promise of "I'll kill you the moment you try to betray me"

Involving and convincing Chris is a lot harder, the man is already pissed at Ethan and now he's besties with 2 of Miranda's underlings? but time is running out and hes desperate for help, and maybe, it could actually work

Chris gives Heisenberg coordinates of where there's gonna be someone waiting for you and the kid, and that you have to be quick in reaching the point or they will leave with out you

of course, you panic! Karl is staying behind and you have to go? you want to kick Chris in the face and make him change his mind, he already has the soldats, why does he need Karl too?!

it's he who has to almost drag you away towards where the Duke is, he knows he has a better chance of getting you there, Miranda won't spare a glance at the merchant

a hefty payment and promises of coming back to you later, you are delivered safely to the team, Karl's trench coat draped over your shoulders and a sack filled with some of your most precious items. feeling like that's the last time you will see him again.

from the helicopter's window, you see with horror how the factory gets destroyed, gasping when Karl's mechanical form appears from the rubble and his army moving to where Miranda must be

the wait is grueling, painful, the sounds of gunfire and explosions make you jump, your crying child screams for their father, but this time, hes not there to calm the not cries and make them laugh

it's past dawn when the bigger explosion shakes the helicopter and when you cry the hardest, believing hes dead, that he die protecting you both.

the entire ride back to the BSAA is spent in silence, your child cried themselves to sleep and you are...just there...heartbroken, unable to shed another tear

a group of paramedics comes to you when you arrive at the new area, asking you questions and trying to check you for any wounds, but you don't answer or hear or care

from far away you see him, limping and using Ethan as a crutch, and then you are running, harder than you have ever done in your life, a strong hold in your baby

Karl looks up to see you and he can't help but smile and cry, open arms waiting for you and catching you, not carrying for his wounds, hes just there and his family is safe...and the 3 of you are free

neither of you put up a fight when the BSAA informs you that you will be under surveillance or that wherever you go you are expected to stay close to their offices, you laugh wholeheartedly when Karl asks "But we can go anywhere...you won't keep us locked away?"

Mia is the one who insists that both families must be close to each other, and you accept

it feels like a dream when Karl comes back and bitches about something that happened in the new lab, he may not be allowed to use corpses but hes allowed to tinker around with his creations and help to contain all bioweapons

you see your child grow and little Rose comes often to play, both children laugh and run around, not knowing what life they could have had

they whisper secrets and share what they have, Mia lights up whenever your kid gives her drawings, Karl melts down a bit when Rosemary calls him "uncle Heis"

and you see him change, he no longer frowns or gets irritated, he giggles or tells jokes, you have caught him develop a true fascination in watching videos and play video games
