If you have any, spare me some Ewilan headcanon sir pretty please ?
Fret no more, young lass, hereâs a collection of random Ewilan headcanons that Iâm ridiculously attached to !
Okay the first one and most important is that Destan, Ellana and Edwinâs son, is gay as fuck, and so is Nawel from Les Ămes croisĂ©es, and when they meet they have instant gay/lesbian recognition and become absolute best friends who kick ass together. (thereâs just⊠no way Nawel is straight. that girl is brimming with young butch energy)
Now that thatâs out of the way, letâs seeâŠ
Ewilan becomes a teacher. Sheâs not a very good one because sheâs impatient and often doesnât know how to explain things that are obvious to her, but her 0 tolerance for bullying, her complete lack of fucks regarding rules, guidelines and Gwendalavirâs entire cast system and the simple but honnest way she praises a student if she feels they made progress have given her quite the reputation. (âsheâs a bitchâ, say some. âsheâs the bestâ, say others)
But do you know who has even more of a reputation than her ? Salim. âIs that Professor Ewilanâs husband ?â âSooooo handsome.â âSoooo charming.â âSoooo mysterious.â âI hear that he has Marchombre friends.â âI hear that he comes from the other world.â âI hear that he can turn into a giant wolf.â âYeah, right !â âWell Lycie told meâŠâ âLycie the biggest liar to ever⊠shhh heâs looking at us !â âomg he smiled !!!â âHeâs so elegant, like a dancer.â Salim is completely oblivious. Ewilan is mortified.
Speaking of mortification : Ewilan and Salim are the most embarrassing parents, ever. For starter, they keep giving each other little kisses and calling each other pet names and other parents donât do that, itâs weird. Ewilan has gone from horribly lonely kid to âmayday, mayday, how do I show affection to this little human ????â which has then translated into keeping every little gift Eryn gave her and proudly displaying them everywhere around the house, and I made this drawing when I was three, Mom, can we please get it off the fantasy fridge ? As for Salim, he isnât even human anymore, heâs just a sentient hurricane of Dad Jokes. And all of Erynâs friends are developping crushes on them ! Itâs all very⊠ugh.
Also sometimes I entertain the bittersweet headcanon that Ewilan and Salim have another daughter, and they love her as intensely (and embarrasingly) as Eryn, but sheâs just a normal kid, with pretty mediocre powers and no particular athletic or academic talents, and she knows her parents love her, and that Eryn sees her as the most important person in the world, but itâs hard, sometimes, being the normal one, the not-special one, the girl without all the gifts. (thankfully uncle Bjorn understands, or at least more than the other adults)
Oh, and as I implied before, Ewilan and Salim got married (Ewilan because she wanted Salim to have an official safety net in case something happened to her, Salim because heâs been dreaming of saying âI doâ since the first time Ewilan kissed him). It was the quietest ceremony they could organise and only their closest friends where there. Bjorn cried. Mathieu cried. Master Duom cried. Edwin cried discretely. Ellanaâs eyes got wet. Siam was bored out of her mind. Liven spiked the punch. Later that night, after they put Eryn to bed, all the lights in their house just snuffed out, and as Ewilan was about to unleash her powers, she saw them : rows and rows of Marchombres, standing silently in the shadows, nodding, and then leaving.
âI wouldnât have thought Marchombres cared for those kind of social nicetiesâ, she said when the last one disappeared. âThey werenât here as Marchombres, they were here as friends.â Answered Salim, like it was the most obvious thing in the world. Sheâs known him for so long, but he still manages to surprise her.
