FOR THE “YOU CAN KILL ME BUT DON’T YOU DARE TOUCH THEM” DYNAMICS || @crystalyz
Father was the most difficult of titles with held on shoulders made for war, scars giving an edge of what made warriors worthy to carry the worries of what burdens no innocent had to. Yet cradled in hands that calloused with ease, was a little head delicate enough to bear a crown wreathed in golden curls. A daughter that knew better than to climb trees far too tall without a chaperone. Panic wrought itself in bitter circles that feet recited, rocking the child in arms more suited to hold a shield. Soothing words were lost to him, buried beneath sarcasm and biting words meant for a court of thorns. No doubt melting that image of a strong leader as he carried her close as if she were made of glass. Hushing tones emitted interwoven with the stroking of a hand on golden locks, trying to calm wide eyes filling with tears and soft cooing of a cry now setting in.
"You're okay! You're okay! I'll- I'll get you a mabari... please don't tell your mother. ", strides turned frantically in the direction of the castles healer. Feet moving on hope alone that the queen wouldn't hear of his uncareful vigilance.
