#wolfsnow?

definitely

he's growing on me honestly and im rlly excited to see him in the main story

im alrdy planning a short drabble to write abt them in celebration for his debut (im still working on my two ongoing fics rest assured...)

"you can try to be his friend," his father had said, weeks ago, before the first visit. zayne had been sitting at the kitchen table, watching his mother pack extra fruit into the side pocket of his father's medical case. "be like an older brother. like you are with yuu and caleb." zayne had thought: that shouldn't be too difficult. he was good with the neighbors' kids. he was patient. he knew how to keep younger children from doing things that would result in injury. he had a reasonable working knowledge of what small people found interesting. he had thought: one child, a year younger. how hard could this be? the answer, as it turned out, was considerably.

aka what if zayne met valko back when he was a kid?

zayne's dad could be the family's physician at the time. i hc that valko's family kept him cooped up in the estate bc they're protective of him. valko is their only son and heir to take over eontech. but also bc they're part of the werewolf clan (assuming its like a big secret thing)
