#meeker

every friday i get back home drained, as it is the busiest day of the week. and today it was not different from the other.

Probably every child in the books:

-The twins should not have survived.

-Manon had thought her pregnancy strange, unlike Aster’s. Her pregnancy with her son had been difficult, but nothing like this.

-Dorian became panicked and called for Yrene. Chaol, too, but mostly Yrene.

-”It’s twins.”

-Manon did ask if one could be sacrificed for the other. She was told no, and not judged for her question. The Witch Queen was at the end of her rope and without the famed healer’s intervention and assessment, may not have survived her second pregnancy. Yrene made the choice to stay by her side until the birth. With her assistance, both babies were born healthy. And, after several months of strict recovery (Yrene could be more terrifying than any witch), the Queen recovered, as well.

-Twins Tessian and Soren Blackbeak-Havilliard were born minutes apart, in that order.

-Tessian, the female twin, would inherit her mother’s throne. Soren would serve as her second.

-The two were (and still are) inseparable. Where one is, so is the other, even if you don’t know it yet.

-Tes takes after her father in that she is every bit the charming diplomat Dorian always pretended to be. Neither parent knows where she gets it from. Black hair and golden eyes like her brother before her, coupled with a genuinely charming smile disarm her enemies before she ever even needs to reach for the steel always by her side.

-Soren is the spitting image of his mother, save for the blue eyes of his father. But his features are all Manon and to say he was (is) a mama’s boy would be accurate. Deadly, and foolish, but accurate. He is all her rough edges smoothed over only for his family. He feels no jealousy for the thrones his siblings will sit on, and much prefers the freedom he has, instead, using it to go on adventures and expeditions. But he still takes his duty to his people and his sister seriously, and won’t hesitate to use iron and steel to defend them all.

-The twins chose wyvern that were also siblings. For Tes, a beautiful beast, midnight black and a slender shape, meant for dexterity and speed, though carrying a temper that isn’t afraid of a fight despite being a mare. For Soren, the brother wyvern, black as well but bigger and beefier. Not as fast, but twice as strong and large, meant to be a shield and warrior, just like his rider.

In my universe, Beargamot feels unfair for the cursed yokai children to be uneducated, so he established a new school for those kids who are eager to be Fan Artists. Several humans noticed it’s existence and ends up being taught by the son of Bearlynyan
