So some ppl were very interested in my crossover WIP so I decided to give you a lil glimpse
And then, after an especially rough week at work, Eddie had suggested they'd drive down to Texas for a few days, where his family has a nice lake house. Lucky for them Eddie's parents are on a trip on their own so they wouldn't have to go visit and could spend the time together without any disturbance.
Well, that had been the plan at least.
Buck watches Eddie lifting the phone to his ear as the two figures slowly keep advancing. When he notices that both of them have one hand resting on something behind their back, Buck's stomach lurches. His first instinct is to jump out the car and get Eddie down and out of sight but then he hears his voice through the half closed passenger door.
"Yeah Alex, it's me Eddie. Yeah. Could you call your guard dogs off, please? Yeah I'm outside. Great. Thanks." He hangs up and raises both of his hands up, so it's obvious that they're empty.

It is reader's bday week, so I have left this dateless, and in the mood board at the end of the chapter, there is no picture/ outfit for reader. I left that up to you to imagine what you would have worn and all that. The woman in the red dress is Catalina, and the woman in the silver dress, if you have not read Back to Start yet, is Billie Hayes.
Pre-Birthday Weekend
Sitting outside on the balcony, you take in the view of the beach below. You feel content and calm, grateful for all the good things in your life. Humming the song that's stuck in your head, you continue gazing at the beach.
It’s been a while since you felt so at ease, things with Billy Russo are going very well, and each date you have deepens your growing feelings for him.
Santiago has continued reaching out to you, but you don’t engage. You decided to focus on you and what makes you happy, and Santi, though he remains in your heart, does not make you happy.
Even at work, everything is going the best it has in a long time. A week ago, you completed a huge job with success. Having reached this new milestone in your career, you feel excited for the future in every way.
It’s been about 3 weeks since Santi showed up at your favorite cafe and ruined your day. Three weeks since Will picked you up and helped you through your panic attack. You couldn’t believe in 21 days how different everything felt. The heavy cloud hanging over your shoulders at that time is gone, much to your relief.
You pull up a video from last night on your phone. One of the surprises this weekend was a concert. One of your favorite groups of all time played a show for the first time in years, and the girls all chipped in for tickets. You watch the videos and relive the memory with joy.
Over the last year at work, you formed a close friendship with one of your coworkers, Catalina. She worked in the department next to yours, and after having lunch together once, you quickly formed a bond. Now she’s one of your good friends. Catalina found this place and even got a deep discount via her connections; the rooms, the meals, everything's top-notch. This is easily one of the best birthdays you’ve ever had.
You look down at the beach again and can see your best friend, Catalina, and Billie by the water. One of the other surprises this weekend was Billie showing up. Over the last 4 years, as your relationship with Santiago took many forms, you grew close to the guys and some of the people in their lives. Including Billie Hayes.
Billie's like a mama bear for the whole group and the mother of Frankies children. At first, you and Billie weren’t close, but over the last two years, you’ve gotten to know her better. As a mother of two and a professor, she's a busy lady and didn’t often make it to general social outings. So, it was a nice to see her here, and it rounded out your already lovely friend group.
Scrolling further back in your photos, you move your finger too fast and end up on a picture from 2 years ago. It's a photo of you, the Millers, and Santiago. His arm draped around you as he smiled.
You can still remember that day. One of your favorite things to do with Santi was a movie in the park. The tradition soon included the Millers over the years and one time, Frankie and Billie made it too. You can still remember that night in great detail.
Zooming in, you study your expression and the wide smile on your face, you even notice how it doesn’t quite reach your eyes. You weren’t feeling so great that day. Though you were excited to see Santi, you needed to vent your frustrations and were dreading bringing it up once you two were alone.
Releasing a sigh, you zoom out of the photo and look at Will and Benny. Seeing them always brings a smile to your face. You gained a bigger family when you met Santi, including three brothers you didn’t plan for, Will, Benny, and Frankie.
Will picking you up during your panic attack was just one of the many sweet things the guys have done for you. Will was your rock, and deep down inside, you knew he had feelings for you. He wasn’t in love with you, you knew that, but he has a crush, he has for a while. Benny even made a casual mention of it one night when the two of you were hanging out.
You tried not to think about it and set the thought aside because you didn’t feel the same. You didn’t see Will that way and didn’t have the heart to confront that truth. Over the years, you tried to play matchmaker in your head, hoping you could find the perfect girl for him. You wanted to see Will happy, but no one you knew seemed like the right fit.
Then it comes to you. Catalina. You remember a moment last night when all of you went dancing after the concert and she expressed her frustration with the dating apps. Catalina is smart, independent, career-focused, and grounded with a fun spirit. She’s also gorgeous and could be deadly serious and all business when needed. Catalina would be perfect for Will.
With a smile, you take a peek over the balcony and scan the beach for your friends. You don’t see them. Only a second later, a knock comes at your door. You open it and let them, it’s Billie and Catalina.
“Everyone else is getting ready, want to head out soon for lunch?” Catalina asked.
“I would love that,” you stand beside her and watch as Billie smiles at her phone, “seems like you've seen something cute.”
“Frankie just took this. Painting party with the kids,” she holds up the phone and shows you both the picture. Frankie is smiling, holding Kian as Skye popped into the picture. Kian's hands are covered in paint, matching the colorful handprints on Frankie's face and shirt.
“Aww,” you coo as you look at the picture, “They look so happy.”
“Yeah, they love daddy time. I just hope he cleans that paint off the floor before I get back.” Billie grins and puts her phone away. “Okay ladies, see you in the lobby in an hour?” She heads for the door.
You and Catalina vocalize a yes and watch her leave. As Catalina heads out, you stop her and ask her to stay a few minutes.
“So, did you delete the dating apps?”
“Yeah, this morning. I’m so done with boys and games. I wish I could just walk outside and meet my guy already. I’m sick of wasting my time.” Catalina leans against the desk. "What's that silly smile about? That is your up-to-something face."
“I may have someone for you.” you replied.
Sunday night
Back from your trip, you spent a few hours at home before Benny showed up at your door and took you hostage for the night. Frankie’s back home with his family, so it's just you, Benny and Will. Benny and Will surprise you with dinner and a movie in the park for your birthday. It’s a sweet gift, though you’re feeling a little tired and have work in the morning.
As the end credits of the movie roll, you turn to the brothers on the blanket next to you.
“I have something I want to talk about, we are missing Frankie, but I’m just gonna say it anyway. I've been seeing someone and really, I’m happy.” You pause. Your words are met with supportive smiles from both of them. “You guys are important to me, so I want you to meet him."
“That's great,” Benny pulls you into a hug, “you have been smiling a lot more lately.”
You grin and lean against Benny. When your eyes meet Wills, you can tell he’s happy for you while going through whatever process he needs to go through.
“Congratulations.” Will replied warmly. "You deserve this."
“I’ve mentioned you guys enough he’s curious too. I’m thinking - Wednesday night? I’m so nervous and just want to get this done before I leave Friday. And of course, please, for the love of god, do not tell Santi about this. I know he's family, I just do not want drama.”
You and the guys continue to talk. They both give you their word they will not tell Santiago about this meetup. You still knew there’s a chance he could find out, it is Santi after all, but you needed to say it.
Part of you feels terrified, you knew the guys weren't going to be easy on your new boyfriend. You are family to them, and they will protect you as such. Your girls gave Billy a good grilling too, especially Catalina, but he charmed them, as expected. After seeing you go through all this shit with Santi, your girls just wanted to make sure Billy deserved you, and you appreciate that.
You also feel nervous about calling Frankie tomorrow and catching him up on all this. You knew Frankie would likely tell you this is a bad idea. No one knew Santi as thoroughly as Frankie, you could hear it now, in Frankie's voice: you know he's gonna find out.
Later that night, Benny heads home and you ask Will to stick around a little longer. You tell him about Catalina and encourage him to go on a date and give it a chance.
You and Will have a heart-to-heart that night and talk about the things you both kept inside. By the end of it, you still have one of your best friends, and hope that you’ve just successfully connected him to his person.
Wednesday Night
All day you could barely keep your food down and had nervous jitters. The clock ticked by so slowly and you started to regret your decision to have them all meet. What if it goes bad? What if it backfires? What if they scare Billy away and he cancels our upcoming romantic getaway?
Your thoughts end up in a tight knot by the end of the day, your stomach is hard as a rock. You try to breathe through it and go along with the plan. It’s too late now anyway. Everyone would start showing up at the destination at 7 and you needed to get it together.
You try to remind yourself that Billy wants to meet them too. And it wasn’t like you were forcing this on him. You also hoped that Santiago wouldn’t show up. You knew the guys kept their word and didn’t tell him, you also picked a bar none of you have gone to for a reason.
Later in the night
As the drinks flow, you sit back and enjoy the moment. It was dicey at first, real dicey. It felt like an interrogation, and you weren’t sure which way all this was going to go.
You liked having this protective group of brothers, but as they worked on Billy, not so much. Still, Billy held his own with ease, with that smooth chill suaveness you love about him so much.
He took jabs and gave them right back; his confidence and chill vibe helped a ton and the tension shifted quicker than expected. Faster than you could predict, the guys mostly warmed up to him.
You figured they all had a lot to talk about, and they had similar backgrounds in a few ways. Now, on the second round of drinks, most of the tension is gone, and a healthy amount of let's keep an eye on this guy remains.
Taking a sip of water, you glance at Billy in the seat next to you. He has one arm draped over your shoulders as he talks to guys and answers their questions. Your eyes jump to Will as he responds to a text on his phone, you hope it’s Catalina. They had their first date yesterday, and you got the dirt today at work. By her account, everything was a little weird at first, but once Will let himself relax, they had a good time and actually flowed with each other.
She was interested in seeing him again. When you asked Will about it earlier in the day, he seemed surprised the date went well, and you know he wants to see her again too. You feel happy for him and excited he even opened up enough to let himself enjoy the date. From the little smile that flashes on Will's lips, you assume it's her and shift your focus back to Billy.
“Just because we're laughing, does not mean you’re not off the hook yet,” Benny points at Billy while raising his beer with his other hand. Your eyes dart to Frankie who nods, arms crossed. He warmed up a little to Billy but was watching him with a close eye, same as Will. However, Will is friendlier. “We’re watching you, man.”
Frankie gestures with his fingers, from his eyes to Billy's.
“I get it, “Billy smiles at them, then brings his eyes to yours, a soft look in his eyes. Even though you’re at a table with four other people, whenever Billy looks at you, it feels like you're the only one in the room, “you’re all protective of her, looking out for her. If I was in your shoes, I’d do the same. Know, I’m crazy about her. I only have her best interests in mind.”
You feel your cheeks warm and inch forward to kiss Billy before you realize it. When the guys comment across the way, you feel shy and bury your head in Billy's neck. He rubs your back.
“When the wedding?” Benny jokes.
“Oh god, “you sit up and gently kick Benny under the table.
Your smile fades as you catch a glimpse of the door straight ahead. You do a double take, unsure if your eyes are playing tricks on you or if you are actually seeing Santiago.
Billy quickly notices, he rubs your shoulder, “Hey, you okay?”
Will notices your mood shift and follows your line of sight. Twisting in the chair, Will sighs. His response confirms you are not hallucinating.
Frankie groans and gets up from his chair, cursing under his breath. Everything about him right now screams damage control. He intercepts Santiago before he reaches the table. Part of you feels bad, those two are attached at the hip, whenever Santi is around, and your current situation complicates things.
Even over the conversions, music, and laughter in the bar, you can vaguely pick up the guys taking in Spanish and Frankie using his “I'm fucking serious” tone. Santiago's eyes leave his friend and land on you.
You don't realize you've been holding your breath until Billy caresses the back of your neck. “That's him I assume?”
“Yeah, that's him.”
Communication was one of the things lacking between you and Santiago. It's not like that with Billy. Everything was laid out on the table. Billy knew about Santi and you knew about Billys past. You learned about the version of Billy you would not have dated at all. The honesty between you felt so good and helped you realize just how much shit was off about you and Santiago.
You continue to watch Frankie and Santiago. Santi raises his hands slightly like he’s trying to convince Frankie he’s not going to do anything. Your eyes land on Will and Benny whose backs are now toward you, as they watch closely.
Will turns and looks you in the eye, "we'll take care of this." You nod as he breaks eye contact and leaves the table, his brother with him.
For a moment, it seems like your nightmare is soon to be over as Santiago glances at you one more time and turns around to leave. You take a deep breath and pinch the bridge of your nose, trying to stop your oncoming headache.
“We can go, if you want?” Billy offers. When you glance at him, he’s staring straight ahead. You feel something you haven't felt in his presence before, simmering anger.
“Hey,” you say softly and squeeze Billy’s hand. He looks at you, “don’t worry about him. Let's finish up here and go. I’m getting pretty tired anyway and that huge, nice ass bed of yours sounds really good right now."
“You sure?” he asks softly and brushes his fingers against your cheek.
You nod, yes. "And that ridiculous shower head, that water pressure is divine." You smile at him.
The sweet moment you share is interrupted by the guys returning to the table.
“Sorry guys.” You say to them.
Will adjusts in his seat and glances at the bar, like he wants, or needs, another beer.
Frankie sits, crosses his arms, and glances back over his shoulder, “I'll talk to him.”
“I’m going to call it for tonight guys,” you sit up and make eye contact with each of them, “thank you for this, it means a lot to me.”
You, Billy, and the guys start talking among yourselves when Santiago reappears, this time coming from the other direction. He stands on your side of the table.
Though you can hear the guys reacting, your eyes stay fixed angrily on Santiago. “Don't do this.” You warn, shaking your head at him.
“Don’t do what? Meet your new boyfriend? Guess my invitation got lost in the mail.” Santi’s words are directed at you, but his eyes stay fixed on Billy.
Feeling your body tense up, you rise from your seat and look Santi in the eyes. “I want you to leave.”
Santiago ignores your demand; he continues to silently provoke Billy. Just as you start to say something else, Billy places a hand on your shoulder and gently pulls you behind him.
Billy blocks you with his body and makes eye contact with Santi, “You heard her.”
Santiago grins smugly, he pulls his dark stare from Billy to you. You’ve seen this look before, but never directed at you. You expect him to say something or make a jab, he doesn’t, he goes quiet. Santi lowered his head slightly and ran his hand over his chin.
“Santi, please, just go.” You clutch Billy’s arm and peek around him at your ex. Santiago grabs the nearby chair to balance himself. At first, you couldn’t tell he was drunk, but now you see it.
“This is what you’ve been avoiding me for? Him?” Santi forces a laugh. “You know, I looked into you, and your company. Mr. big deal here.”
As Santiago takes a step toward Billy, Billy raises one of his hands to stop him. “Come on, you heard her man. I’m trying to be respectful but -”
Growing more agitated, Santi takes the step closer anyway, his chest meeting Billy’s hand, “What’s your plan for her, huh? Your intentions?”
Billy snickers, “my intentions?”
“You heard me. Or do I need to repeat myself?”
“Alright, this is done,” Will interrupts and stands in-between them. You tighten your grip on Billy’s forearm.
“Look, I just want to talk to you, okay?” Santiago ignores the men before him, his eyes finding yours, the anger in them melts to something else, to desperation, “you and me, outside. I don’t give a shit about him.”
As you hear Santiagos words, the sound of a moving chair catches your attention. Looking to your left, you notice Frankie pull himself up again. The last thing he wants to do right now is break up a fight between two grown ass men, and it's written all over his face.
“She doesn’t want to talk to you. Leave.” Billy growled.
“Was I fucking talking to you?” Santiago tears his eyes from yours and focuses on Billy again. Will physically pushes Santi away from you both, Santi pushes back to get closer.
A dark chuckle leaves Billy's lips. You can tell he’s trying to control himself. “I’m losing my patience. You better just leave. Or we’re going to have a problem.”
Will curses under his breath and tugs Santi back with one hard tug. “Come on man. Cut this shit out.”
Before Santi could say anything else, Frankie grabs him by the other arm. With Will’s assistance, they drag him away from the table, and Benny joins them.
You don't realize your hands have been curled into fists until you see them disappear through the door.
“I'm so stupid. Of course, this would happen.” You cover your face with your hands and wish everyone watching would look away.
Coming to your rescue, Billy addresses the onlookers, “What the hell are you all looking at?"
They all turn away. Billy takes your hands in his. “Don’t call yourself that. You were just trying to do something nice. I'm in your life now, meeting them makes sense.”
You lean against Billy, your head on his chest. "I just feel so upset, not just at him showing up, at this whole thing. I feel like I'm dividing the group. They've all known each other way before they knew me."
"And all those guys love you still, right, you are family. Just like your ex is. You had to face what happened and decide to move on, he'll have to do that too. They seem like solid guys, I think they can handle this, even if it sucks for a while." Billy rubs your back, " and its gonna suck for a while."
You hold him tighter. "i know...thank you."
Frankie returns first. He stands at the table and grabs his beer, then downing the rest of it in one very stressed gulp.
“Told you this was a bad idea,” he grumbles before checking the bottle to see if it was really empty. Benny returns next and mentions something about Will taking Santi home.
When you called Frankie up, and told him the plan, he did warn you. Still, you wanted to try. Frankie was convinced Santi would find a way to show up, and he was right.
Benny, trying to lighten the mood, slaps Frankie on the shoulder and then winks at you, “it was entertaining. Come on, just a little, right?"
You roll your eyes and smile, “shut up Benny.”
“Yeah, I love you too.”
You grab Billy's hand, who has been watching you closely, “let's get out of here.”
Next day
The next day, your work goes relatively okay. Like a dark cloud hanging overhead, you can't shake how last night ended, at least the bar part. When you returned to Billys for the night, the two of you cuddled in bed and watching funny videos until you fell asleep. That part was sweet.
You could slap Santiago, that's how mad you are. You're also impressed with Billy and how he handled Santi coming in so hot. Plus, another part of you hurts for Santi, you could see the sadness and regret in his eyes. But anger, you feel that the most.
On your way out of the building, at the end of your workday, you find Santiago waiting for you.
“Oh no, we are not doing this.” You speed up and walk past him.
Santi catches up with you as you cross the street. “About last night - “
You whip around to face him, “yeah, last night, what the fuck was that?”
Santiago guides you to the nearby water fountain, away from the crowd walking past you. He looks tired, stressed, hungover. You're sure Will sat up with him a while, made him eat some food, and tried to console him. All while talking sense into him. Thats the kind of friend Will is.
Santiago starts to talk, then stops. When no words come out, he shrugs his shoulders.
“Wow, that's all you have to say for yourself?”
“I came back, for you,” he reaches for your hand, and you move away from him, “I came back to make this work.”
“Santiago, there is nothing to fix, nothing to make work. You and me, there’s no continuation of that story. It’s over.”
You watch as his wide eyes brew with emotion.
“It's over.” you repeat.
He shakes his head, refusing to hear it, “you don't mean that, you’re just pissed at me. You have every right to be.”
“You can't dismiss my feelings like that. I mean everything I'm saying to you, so listen to me, really listen and let it sink in. If you decide to stay, I can't be your reason. I have moved on. I am happy, Santi. I need you to respect that. "
You ignore the small urge inside of you to console him, to embrace him. You don't like seeing him hurt, but you can't fix him, it's not your job, and he's not your boyfriend. And he's hurt you too many times. You need to stand your ground and push empathy aside now.
"All of us are so deeply intertwined. We care so much about each other, so one day, you and I have to be okay, platonically. Because your best friends have become my friends too. I don’t want to lose them just because we aren't a thing. I also don't want to add stress to their lives with this messy situation. Not anymore."
You take a moment to catch your breath and calm your emotions. "They love you; they love the shit out of you, and I don't want either of us to lose the guys over our personal shit. I finally found what I wanted, and someone who happily gives it to me. It's not you. You need to be okay with that, Santiago. You need to let me live my life.”
He sits, a look of defeat on his face.
“I loved you, and you knew that. I put up with so much when it came to you. It was unfair. When you vanished this last time, for over a year, I- that shit hurt so much, it hurt more than the other times. I will always care about you in some capacity. I can't just erase you from my heart, but to be happy I can't choose you. To be happy, I choose me, and I choose Billy. Nothing is going to change my mind. And definitely not you starting fights with and background checking my boyfriend. You need to be okay with this.”
Santi stares at the ground, then at you with heavy eyes, “well, I'm not okay with it.”
You shrug,” then I have nothing else to say.” You walk away, leaving Santi alone on the bench.
Saturday afternoon
Sitting up on the bed, you watch Billy come over with a tray full of fruit and birthday cake.
"That looks delicious." You wait for him to sit before peaking at the goods. Billy places it between your bodies and brings a strawberry to your lips. You eat it. He feeds you another one.
“These are the best chocolate-dipped strawberries I've ever had in my life.” You hum and close your eyes.
Billy laughs, “they better be, cost a fortune, “he feeds you another one.
As you chew, your eyes drift to the window. The view from this luxury hotel is breathtaking. You feel like a princess in a movie. Billy was spoiling the shit out of you, and you love it, you soak it up.
You watch Billy cut a slice of cake. When strands of hair fall to his face, you gently smooth them back and caress his cheek. You could stare at him all day, he’s so handsome. Billy brings a slice to your lips and smiles when you take a bite.
“Happy birthday baby,” his voice washes over you, your heart grows two sizes. When you imagined your birthday this year, you didn't imagine this. Your second getaway in two weeks, your body still buzzing with post orgasm euphoria. Your perfect boyfriend.
Earlier, when you blew out the candle, you didn’t even make a wish because you have everything you could want right now. You just hope you can keep it for a very long time.
“This is the best birthday ever.” You lean in and kiss him as he plays with the belt of your robe.
“We should take these,'' Billy whispers against your lips in between kisses.
You had no idea what kind of high-count cotton this robe is made of, but it's the most comfortable and softest thing you’ve ever worn in your life. Since putting them on, you and Billy haven't taken them off.
Billy sets the plate aside on the nearby table, then draws you close to him by grabbing your hips.
“What do you want to do today?” He kisses your chin, your neck, your collar bone.
“Honestly, “you close your eyes, savoring the feeling of his lips against your skin, “if we just stayed in bed all day, I would be perfectly happy. With last weekend and everything that happened this week, I just want to be lazy and lie around with you, in this very expensive room.”
“As you wish.” Billy pulls you back into the bed and rests his head against the pillow, you adjust in his arms to lay on his chest. Taking a deep breath, you relax against Billy and close your eyes.
You can still taste the delicious cake on your tongue. Billy caresses the side of your arm as you listen to his breathing.
This is perfect.
There’s so much you like about Billy. He showed you what is possible in a relationship, even though everything is so fresh. Billy leaves you with no doubts, no fears.
Even with his busy career, he always makes time for you, and when you’re together, you feel like the only thing he sees. With Billy, you never feel confused or alone, as you did with Santi.
Though your relationship is so fresh, so new, you have high hopes. You hope this doesn’t fizzle out and you’re thankful for Billy's journey as you get to be with this version of him, a healed, matured version. A version that can give you all the things you ever wanted.
For the first time in a long time, you feel lucky. You feel like cupid got it right and put you on that blind date so you can meet Billy. You feel thankful for that meeting you didn’t want to take, putting you right in his office. For the first time, instead of swooning over someone else's love story, you’re head over heels for your own.
As for Santiago, you didn’t know what the future would bring, or if you could even be friends one day. Santiago has work to do, on his own, and you have to separate yourself from that. You allow yourself to keep healing that heartbreak while being present with Billy.
Opening your eyes, you focus on Billy and hold him tighter. You breathe into your present, the now, and cherish every second of it.

Rose and Damian Hook- Tougard (Rose’s maiden name.) Vikings of the north isles and the dragon riders of Vidar, their village which was named after the god of Vengeance and Justice, Vidar; the son of Odin and the giantess Gríðr.
(main canon)
Rose was betrothed to Harry Hook, son of Captain James hook before the two were even conceived. after her 18th birthday she and her father traveled to Auradon, the last known location of Captain Hook, and demanded her fathers side of the deal, Hooks first born son; to continue the family line. they discovered that Hook had never told his son about the old deal, and Rose’s father; Konumgr (old norse for “King”), shamed the old pirate.
After some negotiations with Harry, King Ben, and Konumgr, it is decided that Harry and Rose’s betrothal will continue. and Rose will join him in Auradon for half the year, then he will join her in Vidar for the rest of the year so they can bond. thing is, Harry is dating Uma; Daughter of Ursula and he fears Rose will react poorly. it isnt until the 3rd month of Rose’s stay in Auradon that he tells her of this ‘problem’
turns out, Rose doesn't care, in fact, she likes Uma. and she likes him too. so after the three get to know each other, they all decide to date each other, and so the betrothal between Harry and Rose, becomes a love filled marriage between the three. a few years after the three get married, they have two kids. Damian and Cordelia, both sired by Harry but born to the two woman. Damian is Rose’s son, and Cordelia is Uma’s daughter.
(there's ALOT more to the story, including kidnapping, a fight to the death, bonding, discovery, and facing fears. i just condensed it for the stake of this post)
(Cordelia is @thetimelordbatgirl‘s OC and is the daughter of Harry and Uma in her descendants AU called Evil’s unfinished business/family business)
(tightrope ‘canon)
just as in the main canon, Rose was betrothed to Harry Hook, son of Captain James hook before the two were even conceived. after her 18th birthday she and her father traveled to Auradon, the last known location of Captain Hook, and demanded her fathers side of the deal, Hooks first born son; to continue the family line.
they found him on the isle, and made a deal with the then king of Auradon; Ben. since the people of Vidar were powerful and sift, the ‘royal’ family having been blessed by their gods of elemental powers; Rose having the ability to control and summon lighting whenever she pleased, so really, if they were to deny chief Konumgr’s request? it wouldn't be a peaceful time for Auradon.
so Ben allowed Rose to enter the isle with her father in search of Captain Hook and his first born son. the deal was begrudgingly acknowledged and Rose then stayed on the isle for six months getting to know Harry and his ‘friend’ Uma. within those first six months the three bonded and began to fall in love. but as per the agreement, Rose left the isle after six months, set to return after the last half of the year (basically a Hades/Persephone kinda deal, Rose would spend half a year on the isle with Harry, and then return home for the rest of the year)
during her absence Harry and Uma came to a striking realization; they had both fallen for the Viking girl who was betrothed to Harry. so when she returned the next year; they waited a couple months before confessing to her, and she returned those feelings wholeheartedly. and so the three married, and however many years later, Uma and Rose had their children, two days apart. Damian; son of Rose and heir of Vidar. and Cordelia; Daughter of Uma and child of the gods.
even after the two children were born, Rose was still required to spend only half a year on the isle, so for half a year, Uma, Harry, and Cordelia would be separated from Rose and Damian until the next time they returned. Rose had tried multiple times to make a new deal with Ben to permanently take Harry, Uma, and Cordelia from the isle to her village up north, but while the king wanted to agree, the council did not let the new deal go through. and then ripped away the original deal.(yeah im adding angst deal with it!) so when Cordelia and Damian were 12 years old, they disappeared from each others lives, only able to communicate through letters.
it is only four months after Mal and Maleficent's take over of Auradon, that the family is reunited.

uh, ye....this is probably the most ive ever done for this concept since last year??? when i originally came up with it?? yeah its been a whole ass year since i last touched this concept XD anyway, some extra info for yall
Rose is 6ft5, taller than both beast and Hades. in turn Damian, at 17 years old, is 6ft2, an inch (or two) taller than Harry. its a genetics thing, since Konumgr is 6ft7 and Vinder (old norse for Wind) (Roses mom and Damián's grandma) is 5ft11...yeah the chief line/the village of Vidar are TALL. Rose is also buff as shit, able to lift upwards of 500 pounds. the family of Tougard are blessed by the gods, born with the ability to manipulate the elements in different ways, and those married into the family are given special elemental gems. Konumgr can control fire, Vinder can control wind through her earrings, Rose can control/summon/ride on lightning, im still thinking of Damián's element, but the first thought is water; as a connection to his ‘ma’ (Uma) and sister, who both can control water as their connection to the god of the ocean, Poseidon.
the village of Vidar are also dragon riders, Damian rides a night fury named; storm breaker. and Rose rides a Skrill/Night fury hybrid named; Mjolnir. can you tell Rose n Damian are inspired by Httyd XD
