This Fragment of God Has Sharpened Into a Knife -*Masterlist*
Discovered by hunters busy fetching their Lord's next meal, an empty headed vampire is found rotting on the side of the road amongst the wreckage of a carriage crash, disoriented and robbed of their valuables. In their perilous condition, they are brought to the luxurious estate of a mysterious Lord Ancunin, who seems cordial enough to assist this wastrel until they can regain their mind and direction again; after all, the unlikely pair are alike in their mutual condition of vampirism, something so widely scorned it can be hard to find a soul to be yourself around. Since friends can be so hard to find and enemies lurk around every corner, it's best to make the most out of what we are given, wouldn't you say?
(This is an Ascendant Astarion yandere fic, and an AU where the nautiloid never happened. I hope you enjoy!)
bestie verse venice era marius probably looked at amadeo being all cute and happy to be responsible for bestie and decided to tell him “make sure you and your sentiments don’t ruin that girl’s life” :(
and now amadeo keeps thinking about all of the ways he could ruin her without meaning to :((
Soft launching but he’s already bought the flight tickets and had his staff on Night Island arrange her bedroom + convert a spare room to an art studio. 😗
He’s just asking as a formality.
You know how people say that parents shouldn’t frame things that toddlers have to do as a choice? Like you shouldn’t ask a 2-year-old if they want to take a bath because they have to. I think Armand might be moving like that.
He soft launches the idea just to see how Bestie is feeling about everything, but he already knows she’s going. Maybe two days before their flight is supposed to leave, Armand tells her that they’re going on a trip together 🥰
He’s actually being so considerate by doing it this way. It isn’t fair to ask Bestie if she wants to go when he knows that she’s coming either way ☺️
Warnings: yandere behavior, talks about liking the different sex (male), kidnapping, forced affection, and mention of killing (duh).
A/N: yeah, I started writing this, and now it’s posted; I’d love requests from this man! This is written as the current Kratos (2022). Hope you enjoy <3!
@sakuracream, here it is!
He’s insanely protective, and just as possessive in the sense that everybody will know you are taken by his menacingly form standing behind you. He acts like a guard dog, always behind you with his resting face, ensuring that nobody disrespects you. But, he’s also caring in his own way.
It’s a slow burn with him. Kratos isn’t one for simply falling in love with someone, especially with the amount of guilt, shame, and fear he carries each day of his life. He’s lost so many, and doesn’t want to get attached again. Even if he admits it or not, Kratos suffers from abandonment + trust issues. There’s a lack of consistency in his life from as far back as he can remember. So, when first meeting you, it’s harsh.
The meetings of you two are likely between Atreus. You could be a sorcerer they ran into on a late evening, Atreus quickly becoming on good terms with you; begging for you to help him with certain topics, or teaching him things of magick.
You could be a blacksmith, Sindri making you two meet as his rather permanent weapon needs help. Or, in an infrequent case, an enemy turned into a good ally. Either way, opening up for him isn’t easy.
Again, it’s a slow burn. He slowly notices how you make him feel — and it irks him. He doesn’t like feeling fear when he loses sight of you, or when you mumble to yourself, he hates feeling jealousy on not being able to hear what you’re saying. It’s difficult for him to analyze his emotions, and with you being near him most of the time, he’s unsure how to approach you, especially if you’re of the different sex. His heart naturally flutters when you talk, his go-to responses of grunts or silence of listening current. Hands sweat when you nudge his shoulder or accidentally bump into him. To you, he’s a tough nut. But underneath all that, he’s analyzing his emotions better; looking at you with love.
Little by little, it starts with him writing in his journal about you. Descriptions of your characteristics, your likes & dislikes, how you two interact, how close you are to Atreus, and how your habits work; which he describes are quite adorable. This often leads to him stalking you, looking at you when you aren’t paying attention, and reading/and learning your body language like his backhand. It only adds to his adoration towards you, if by chance, you’re a motherly figure to his son.
With this and interacting with him for a long period of time on a daily basis, Kratos, at some point, lowers his guard — especially if Atreus openly says he trusts you.
And just like a snap of fingers, he prioritizes you. Actively looking at you when you aren’t around. Asking the others if he’d seen you; quickly shutting the conversation down if Atreus or Mimir ask what’s with him. Small touches are guaranteed, a hand guiding you on your lower back. Fingers ‘accidentally’ nudging to yours when you’re beside each other. Grabbing you by the waist to help you climb on rocks. Or teaching you factors of hunting that he knows you’ll enjoy doing.
At this point, he’s already attached, far too North. It’s a perfect family, is it not? You aren’t going anywhere without him. He’s fallen for you, quite hard. The rope has snapped, and you’ll be his.
This said, kidnapping is ensured. It’ll start slow at first, Kratos keeping you a bit longer at home so you can get used to it. He often invites you for supper and dinner; making stew, or having deer. He engages with small talk, admiring you and his son. Slowly but surely, he adds things inside the cabin that he knows you’ll like — shelves of books and poems, more blankets, clothes of your liking, and many items of those hobbies of yours. Atreus adds in too, gifting and creating you things with your thoughts in vain.
It is, until, one day, you’re permanently kept into the house. Once you try to leave, your smile goes away as you realize he’s blocking your way to the door — ordering you to sit back down. Depending on your reaction, he’s equally stronger than you are, and already has you sitting down, either with his strength or voice. If he needs to, he will chain you; he’s determined on not losing anybody close to him again.
The mere idea of losing you sends him into a panicked state, to which, he’s forced the option for you to stay here, forever.
Life in Midgard with Kratos is rather isolated — even though he doesn’t mean to. He loves you, and often fears the worst scenarios, which means everywhere you go, even to see an old-friend, he’s there with a possessive grip.
Within the stand of home, Kratos tries to make it cozy, and to your liking; adding things to make sure your ‘stay’ is more comfortable. He adds many blankets to the shared bed as needed to keep you warm, even though he’s a lava himself. Every night, he makes delicious food, and often tells you to retire everything to him as he promises to take care of you.
Affection is hard for him to express — especially with words, so he’s more passionate within his actions. If you two are out in public, he will be touching you one way or another; he has a fear that you’ll leave him, which makes him quite clingy. A hand on your hip, pinky-interlocking-pinky, or if he’s feeling threatened, he puts a hand on your shoulder and pushes you into him. If he’s not directly by your side, rest assured that he will be glaring at anyone who approaches you or even looks at you.
In private, it’s worse. He’s practically glued to your side, and if you’re sitting down, you better believe he’s scooching you closer to his body, and making you sit in/or between his lap.
Despite his ‘distant’ and gruff answers, he pays attention to the littlest things and wants to make you happy. Despite his possessiveness, If you mention missing your homeland, Kratos will wake you up early the next morning, take you to fatherland and let you visit for a short period of time; a large hand wrapped around yours the whole time.
Pass-to-conversation that you need more items for your certain hobby? He’s heading down to the trading posts at the butt-of-dawn, actively looking for what you said, and bringing it home with a grunt of, “Here.”
At some point in the future, he’d love to have a bigger family. The thought of having another kid, possibly a daughter, makes his heart flutter and a small smile widen. Though, if you’re of the different sex/or cannot get pregnant, he’s open to adopting or simply just having you and Atreus.

post divorce armand is lowkey insane from bestie’s perspective because he’s basically like ‘i will disappear for unspecified amounts of time bc i feel like if i’m near you i’ll ruin you and you’ll learn to hate me like everyone else, however, if i’m away from you for too long i start losing the will to live, so i will randomly appear in your apartment, sometimes in your bed while you’re sleeping ☺️.’
and bestie just goes along with it because of the amount of joy and comfort his presence brings her.
A lot happened in 3x06 and all I can think about is poor Bestie being so out of it from everything that’s happened, that she says something that she shouldn’t have.
Lestat says that bs about giving Armand 5 whacks for the 5 great laws and Bestie absentmindedly says, “He prefers to give those.”
Then, she blushes after realizing what she’s just said and BOOKS IT out of there while Lestat is trying to process what he just heard.
(Armand bending Bestie over his knee is real to me. She is right where she wants to be and she knows he’s about to give her the best aftercare. I’m a big fan of Armand having a partner who actually understands kink safety. 💞)
Crying 😭 It would be a complete accident too. So much is going on, so there’s a good chance Bestie is halfheartedly disassociating as a coping mechanism. Maybe she’s even drawing in her sketchbook during the conversation.
Also maybe, for a second, she forgets she isn’t talking to Louis 😭
Lestat makes the “5 whacks for the 5 great laws” comment. Without thinking, she says, “he prefers to give those.” The words don’t register until they’re out of her mouth. She regrets them immediately.
She locks in and makes up an excuse to leave the room. Bestie is not having this conversation with Lestat. She’s dealing with enough right now.
Also Armand has definitely bent Bestie over his knee at some point. She can be such a brat when she wants to be, and she has a very specific way of getting under Armand’s skin.
He would take such good care of her after. Armand would do everything he can to help Bestie get comfortable, and he’d tell that she did so good 🥰 No one save Bestie, she’s exactly where she wants to be.
thinking about armand seeking out bestie during his apology tour. even though the goal is to read her his letter and genuinely apologize to her, he can't help but be a little theatrical about it.
armand spends the day before his arrival whispering in her mind, just subtle pulses that force her to be aware of him. and then, in the early hours of the morning, when every other vampire that could possibly be around bestie is asleep, armand calls out to her. he tells her to come to her.
bestie's still sleepy, but she feels strangely un-drowsy. she crawls out of her hotel room bed and approaches the sliding door that leads to the room's balcony. armand is waiting there for her.
idk i think i just like the thought of armand calling for her and bestie feeling like she's in an a sort of trance because of it even though he isn't actually doing anything to impact her free will.
I’m not the same anon but I had to bring this concept back since we’ve gotten so much brat tamer Armand lately…
Bestie and Armand would agree to try her going over his knee on a night where it’s just them, purely to give it a try. They’d end that night having discovered something very interesting about themselves.
(Armand, panicking since he hurt his beloved, even if it was consensual: 😰😰😰
Bestie, planning on dialing up her brat tendencies from time to time to get what she just experienced again: 😊😊😊)
This does seem like something Armand and Bestie would stumble onto. I can see it being something that they start talking about when they aren’t even doing anything sexual.
It’s presented in a very lighthearted way, maybe as a teasing comment from Bestie or a halfhearted threat from Armand. And then it suddenly stops feeling amusing and theoretical, and like an actual option.
I’m not sure who would be the one to bite the bullet and actually suggest doing it. Armand would be more generally comfortable with the conversation, but he wouldn’t want to risk bringing anything up that might be too much for her.
I can imagine Armand casually telling Bestie that if she doesn’t watch herself, she’s going to end up bent over his knee. She knows he’s joking, but then it gets a little quiet. Finally, she tells him that he can if he wants to.
If Armand brings it up first, I can see the conversation starting off either just as innocently or during a more heated moment. He’d bend his fingers under her jaw to make her look at him, and he’d that he could easily throw her over his knee.
Armand would notice the vaguest sense of curiosity behind her eyes, and would then ask her if ‘she’d like that’ with such a condescending voice. Ugh. Give Bestie that cookie right now.
After, they’d both quietly sit there for a second. Bestie is deeply surprised to find out that she’s even into that (or maybe she’s just into it because it was with Armand, who’s to say?).
Armand’s more concerned about whether or not he hurt Bestie. Yes, she said okay with it in the heat of the moment, but he still has to worry about how she’s feeling now. He’s also very aware of the fact that he possesses supernatural strength. He thinks he didn’t take things too far, but he was also distracted.
He would make her swear to honestly tell him how she’s feeling. She assures him that she’s fine, but he still spends the rest of the night coddling her and telling her that she was such a good girl.
I think Armand wouldn’t be super familiar with after care in the official sense, but he’d still instinctually focus on her comfort after. He’s gently massaging any parts of her that might be sore, cleaning her up, and bringing her something to eat and drink. Then, he’s tucking her into bed with him so that he can whisper sweet nothings against her ear <3
things armand was busy doing while bestie thought he wanted nothing to do with her anymore:
visited several art galleries and auction houses because he knew bestie would be there. she wasn't presenting her work during each of armand's visits, but he never missed an event that featured her paintings. he'd sit in the back, silently pine and observe, and then slink back into darkness.
attended a fashion week after party because a tabloid magazine said bestie would be there. he didn't see the party on her google calendar, but decided that he needed to take the chance anyway. she showed up about halfway through the night, and armand was so relieved, for a second, he almost forgot that he couldn't just walk up to her and ask about where she had been.
attended a different party because of another tabloid magazine rumor. bestie didn't show up that time. armand drove himself crazy making up rumors for the rest of the night.
speaking of magazines, he purchased several magazines just because they mentioned bestie. he spent more time than he'd ever admit to staring at his favorite photos of her.
rented an apartment in a building just across the street from bestie. he didn't necessarily live in it full time, but having the option to stay somewhere that close to her soothed him.
regularly played her favorite tv shows and movies while alone. sometimes he'd actually watch them, but usually, he just wanted to hear those plots play out in the background so that he could imagine bestie was just sitting in the other room, watching tv.
while struggling to fall asleep in the apartment building near bestie, he would stand in front of the window facing her apartment like gatsby looking out over the water to stare at the green light.
secretly walked bestie home from parties and bars to make sure she got home safely. ate three men for having particularly inappropriate thoughts about bestie and one man for yelling lewd comments at her while trying to follow her home.
killed a few vampires that thought the girl from daniel's book knew too much about vampires to be allowed to live.
purchased a few of her paintings anonymously.
snuck into her apartment while it was empty on occasion just to become sickeningly overwhelmed by the familiarity of it all.
reached out to her mentally when he noticed any potential romantic interests getting too close to her. sometimes, if he was feeling particularly overwhelmed or brave, he'd actually text her.
ate an art critic that gave her a harsh review.
would sometimes let himself become so fed up with longing, he'd abandon his isolation just to visit bestie. there were times in which he let himself stay for a single night, and times in which he let himself stay longer.
regularly logged into their shared minecraft world. one time, he accidentally stumbled onto bestie while she was playing. they started playing together at the same time each night without ever talking about it.
stole sweatshirts from her laundry when he could afford to do so without being caught. he would always return the clothing eventually, hiding it in the back of her closet.
once secretly helped a drunk bestie into a set of clean pajamas before ushering her into bed. when she woke up, she assumed the whole thing had been an alcohol fueled dream, even after finding a class of water and a bottle of ibuprofen waiting on her nightstand.
slept with an oversized t-shirt armand stole from her in dubai clutched between his fingers every night.
Armand: There is not a thing in this world I would not do for you, save for end myself, only because it would mean we would have to be apart and I cannot bear even the very thought of such a notion. And even on that, I’m open to being convinced. But only for you.
Daniel: I just need you to help me make this YouTube short about Lestat fucking his mom.
Armand, who can recall a time where modern science had yet to be born and it was widely believed that the earth was at the centre of the universe, suddenly so hard his dick might explode: ᵃⁿʸᵗʰᶦⁿᵍ ᶠᵒʳ ʸᵒᵘ ᵈᵃⁿᶦᵉˡ
Thinking of a yandere! God. Not specifically a god of anything.
Just thinking of the possibility that they can create a whole separate world just to contain you and force you to live with them and you'd literally have no way out without his permission. Because what can you, a human, do against a god who trapped you in some alternative reality where they bend and break everything to their liking?
Or even a god who just bends reality as is to make you stay with them, change the past, change history, turn you into nothing in the way where no one knows you. Your family? Forgotten about you, to them you never existed. So to everyone, you'd just be some person and you wouldn't be able to get help to escape them.
