Friday DE: For Fic's Sake Think Of Something Good

[splash_of_blue]

Another week bites the dust! Thanks for covering my Monday DE, Don.

Let's do another fic Friday, since God knows we could use some distractions currently.

Usual MO, but let's do prompts about family, friends and communication! Whatever that means to you.

I'll run with Jess and Viv. Thank you.

I like that idea and will toss in.

Cassian Andor
Quentin
Sameth
Demeter

→ Cassian: his father's son
→ Quentin: family expectations
→ Sameth: birthright
→ Demeter (and Kore): sweetest summer

(This is a tricky one to write due to his family background and not knowing how much you know of it.)

His parents taught him justice and etiquette.

Duke Sylvester and Sir Etienne taught him hierarchy, swords and magic.

Toby taught him that blood can define everything and nothing. She taught him not knowing all the pieces of him and it was up to him to figure out how to be who he had to be.

When it was time that he had to take up the mantle of his family, only he would define who he would be.

Abhorsen-in-Waiting, Prince, Wallmaker

When Sameth first felt Death, he didn't know what it meant, he woke in the night to this cold sense that terrified him. He was eight and Ellimere found him in the morning curled up in his blankets. His father was there and held him, a few days later his mother returned and spoke to him about Death, that he would be Abhorsen after her.

His second birthright as Prince was one that he'd always known and he knew it better, ceremony and responsibility.

His third as Wallmaker he discovered unexpectedly with a new surcoat and it was a role that fit better but felt like his projects, it needed constant adjustment.
