ChippedSpinner

This is a blog for the duo of writers that make up ChippedSpinner on AO3. Here to see the newest promo of our new and up coming chapter? Perhaps to get the first glimpses of a one-shot, or even engage in Q&A with the characters and writers? You can find it here~

I made 38 icons of John DeSantis in his role as “Bald Man” in A Series of Unfortunate Events season one, episdoe one, “The Bad Beginning, Part One.” These icons were made with @protectivedove in mind but can be used by anyone. The screencaps come from lostintimegraphics.com. Please reblog if using.

@protectivedove punched the ♥

Dove had not been a part of her life with Rumple, so Milah had very little information on the man. (Much as she did with anything regarding her ex these days.) He was large and appeared intimidating, but one of the scariest looking crewmembers on the Jolly had been one of the sweetest. Though she doubted they would be the best of buds, she didn’t want to just dismiss him off hand. So she held up a plate of cookies she’d baked for her grandson and lifted a bit of cellophane back. “Would you like one? They have something called peanut butter in them.”

Dove had never known much about the Dark One’s former life, before he got his magic. As such he didn’t know much about the man’s ex wife Milah. However, she was Baelfire’s mother, and that alone was enough to make her someone worth protecting. She was a part of the family, even if her place in it was complicated. So he gave her a small smile when she offered the cookies, and gave her a small nod. “Thank you,” he told her as he grabbed a cookie, careful not to touch any of the others as he did. He took a small bite, smile growing as he chewed. “It’s good,” he assured her, knowing many people liked to know when others enjoyed the food they’d made.

Extra Protection

{ℬ}- “Sir Dove.. Thank you. I’m Belle,” she replied.

 She didn’t know if he was dubbed a knight or not by Rumple, but he had saved her along side her master. That made him her knight in a way and she made a note to find a way to thank him. Perhaps when this was over she would inquire to her master or to the man himself as to what his favorite tea and sweets were. And if he didn’t like sweets, his favorite meal. She didn’t have the authority to thank him with gold or gems.

 For now she peeked around the gentle giant protecting her and to the two sorcerers. Well if there had been a deal to be made, apparently the other unnamed sorcerer had ruined his chance by attacking her. Rumplestiltskin was very protective of ‘his things’ after all.

 “Do you think he’ll be okay?”

Dove was rather amused when Belle addressed him as ‘Sir’. He wasn’t a knight or anything, and he didn’t have any desire to be one either. He was happy just helping the Dark One in whatever ways he could. But the Dark One’s maid was rather nice, and he found himself smiling softly.

The she asked if Dove thought someone would be okay. He wasn’t sure whether she meant the Dark One or the other sorcerer, but he did already know what the outcome would be. “The Dark One will be fine,” he answered her. He wasn’t sure what would happen to the other sorcerer, but he didn’t really care. After all, the man had attacked a maid to get at her master. He deserved whatever the enraged Rumpelstiltskin decided he did.

But just then the sorcerer sent out a blast of fire in a circle all around him. Rumpelstiltskin couldn’t stop all of it, and so Dove quickly pushed Belle back completely behind him, letting his shield take the brunt of the blast. The Dark One turned to make sure they were okay turning back to the sorcerer, his eyes alight with renewed rage.

Extra Protection

@chippedxteacup continued from here

Belle looked up at the giant of a man that hadn’t been there a moment ago, shivering not from the cold, but from fear after nearly being fried to a crisp by an apparently short tempered magician. Not, Rumplestiltskin of course, no he seemed angry in fact that she had been on the receiving end of a near fatal attack. That is if she was reading him right, it was hard to tell with him sometimes.

She was guessing this man was brought there by Rumple to give her extra protection from the foul tempered magician whom she had apparently irked just from smiling at him.

“Th-Thank you..” she replied to the man, speaking in hushed tones so she didn’t distract either of the sorcerers. “We haven’t met before…what’s your name?”

Dove himself was rather irked that the Dark One’s maid had been attacked by some rouge sorcerer. He understood that not everyone liked the man he worked for, but taking it out on his innocent maid? That was entirely unacceptable. So, as Rumpelstiltskin took care of the threat, Dove had transformed into his human self instead of the bird sitting on the windowsill, ready to shield the woman from any stray blasts that might come her way.

“Dove,” he answered her question simply, holding his shield at the ready as he watched the two magic users circling each other. The Dark One would probably be able to end the fight quickly, and without a chance of further injury coming to his maid. But Dove wanted to be here, just in case.
