i need them happy even if i have to torture them some more

This AU is basically what if Dark Choco pushed himself a bit too much and caught the Pale Ailment while still collecting the medicine for everyone else, with no regard for himself bc his stupid ass is stubborn, just like his father.

He is later found collapsed in front of the castle gates with literally the entire kingdoms worth of chocolate bamboo shoots. Because the ailment had taken a lot of his color, most of the people hadnt recognized him at the start, but when they spotted his scar and familiar features, everyone knew. Even if no one openly talked about it.

By the time dark cacao comes back, the entire kingdom had accepted the prince back into their midst, after some serious talks between all of them. The prince, all the while, hadnt uttered a single word or looked anyone in the eye, still too weak from the sickness. Dark cacao was told of their current circumstances, of everything being better now but the detail of who their savior was was omitted for a little bit. All the soldiers stationed in the room were alert in case cacao had any sort of resentment left for his son, and they were ready to protect their former prince with their lives. Yet, when the king spotted him, all he could do was fall to his knees and embrace him like he never had before. Im gonna cry now.
