That’s impossible! Just get down here and let him out!

. . . He’s not married yet!

That’s not going to happen. Don’t make him hex her. Who even is she anyway, and why is she in his house?

And who’s going to stop him?

Get down here and open this door right now. He wants to go outside. @crudelis.bsky.social

Wandering off to the port key he ordered, only he’s forgotten where it’s taking him.

Get out of his way, he’s taking them to the fireplace!

Just leave them! He knows what he’s doing!

No, don’t touch them!

Impossible, he’s never seen any of them before.

Getting rid of these portraits? He doesn’t recognise a single one of the people in them.

Tearing down all the portraits in his house.

He’s sitting down with his head in his hands and shaking his head. He’s feeling very tired . .

. . He’s not quite sure now.

He’s throwing all the servants and elves out of his house.

Wandering in. @impendiovis.bsky.social “Where’s mother? She was supposed to meet me to pick out a wedding suit.”

Confused expression as he stared up at the portrait of his wife.

Did his wife tell her what she did? @decorcillum.bsky.social

Good.

She really should tell her.

Before she does, does Angelique know what she did?

He knows she’s never wanted to, but it’s the only thing that will make up for it.

She owes her sister this.

She has plenty, he knows there’s things she’s never even told him.

Share one of her own secrets . .

He’s not sure about that.

And how is that going to fix how she’s ruined her sister’s life?

Do tell.

She better hurry then.

Well, how is she going to fix it?

She’s never even liked her sister, and by leaking that information, she’s hurt her sister too.

What the fuck did Orion do to her??

Has she gone mad?!

. .

He’s storming in the door the moment he apparated onto their front porch, and he’s fuming. “You told me your cousin would ensure that old fool leaves everything to me!” He shouted angrily at her, before he got a drink to calm down. @crudelis.bsky.social

// then again, half the time when I say I can’t sleep, I crash not long after

// pls excuse any typos, it’s 1am but I can’t sleep bc it’s still warm after being 40°C yesterday, and it’s gonna be 45°C today

You always were a waste of space, and you haven’t grown up a bit.

Traitors deserve nothing.

Tiredly finding his way into bed and into his wife’s arms. @crudelis.bsky.social

. . He is not having that woman in his home.

Kneeling at his mother’s grave, he’s silently arranging an assortment of flowers . .

He’s not going to ever admit he’s missing his mother . .

Well? @impendiovis.bsky.social

And his parents wonder why he finds them exhausting . .

His father just can’t stop lying . . @crudelis.bsky.social

That’s a lie.

All he ever wanted was their approval . .

He’s home . . @crudelis.bsky.social

His father is on his way to her. @crudelis.bsky.social
