Just because I couldn't risk losing this.

Concept of Apollo's backstory

A fair warning. Cross, dream, nightmare, or shattered dream don't belong to me. They belong to @/jakei95, @/jokublog, and @/shattereddreamsau. The ship Dark Xsunshine was started by @zu-is-here. The only thing I own is Apollo.

Tw: abuse and semi gore?

Apollo... Was a mistake. He was always a mistake. His supposed to be happy go lucky father figure Dream turned out to be a messed up manipulative man towards him and his mother Cross. Dream made Apollo think wrong of the outside world with the use of manipulation and when he dared tried to go outside without Dream knowing.. Two tentacles stabbed his eyes. His eyes sockets bleeding and filling with blood as he could no longer see. After that incident Apollo didn't dare leave. He soon adjusted to not seeing, using his other senses and tentacles to walk and other stuff. Dream was quiet impressed but.. Not enough. Dream put Apollo threw intense training and pushed them beyond their limits. Dream hurted inside but he knew it was for the best. Cross tried so hard to intervene yet he was always stopped by the hallucinations Dream created to give Cross the appearance of a happy family.

Later on Apollo saw more children and tried his best to give them a happy childhood. He was becoming desperate for them to be happy. Even if it was for a moment that Dream or Cross wasn't around to stop him. Apollo cried himself to sleep and tried to stay happy for his siblings.. Didn't stop him from snapping tho. The day Apollo snapped was on his "birthday". Or what Dream liked to call Mistake Day. Apollo tried to keep a fake smile but once Dream had hit one of his siblings.. Apollo attacked Dream, throwing them into a wall before escaping. Apollo for the first time felt the cool air and the sunshine again. He ran through a forest and ended up in a random AU. He felt around the ground and felt flowers and grass. Then he heard birds and cows...? Was he at a farm?? Apollo thought he was trespassing then he heard a soft gentle voice of a woman.. She asked him if he was lost and of course he nodded. The woman helped Apollo up and introduced herself as Toriel, a goat monster who took care of most of the animals and flowers. Toriel and Apollo talked for a while on the way back to her home. [some examples. T for tori n A for apollo]

T: "so Apollo how did you end up here?"

A: "I was running for my life. I'm glad to of found someone like you. You seem to be kind"

T: "oh my.. From who?"

A: "My father."

And thats it for the concept of Apollo's backstory! I might make Apollo take one of the Dark Xsunshine kiddos so they could be happy with him but of course I need the other Dark Xsunshine ship children creators to approve of it! Feel free to ask some questions as well! I'll reblog this post for more story n details. I'll attach the Ref for Apollo as well when I'm done with it!

Almost forgot! @help-im-a-gay-fish enjoy some concept backstory! I'll be going all out for Apollo

Purple is Toriel

White is Apollo

Orange is Rooth

Part 1: New life. New friend.

A week after Apollo had arrived to the farm and was fully healed of his wounds Toriel thought he should help with the farm work. Of course Apollo was a bit hesitant to go outside and get messy but he agreed. Toriel smiled softly and went to get Apollo some overalls, boots, gloves, and a hat. Toriel gave Apollo the clothing and told him she'll be waiting outside. Apollo nodded and closed his door to change into the clothes as Toriel went outside. Apollo examined the clothing and found what felt like a photo. He felt around the photo and managed to find some writing on the back. He traces each letter with his finger and figures it out-

"Asriel. Asgore. Toriel. Names... Maybe Asgore and Asriel were related to this woman? But why couldn't I hear other voices during my stay here?"

-Apollo feels around for the bed side table to place the photo down. He then carefully takes off the clothing he was wearing and puts on the clothing Toriel gave him. He had kept his leggings on and mask but decided to leave the choker he wore. He puts the hat on and runs his hand across the wall, grabbing onto whatever he could to help him guide himself out of the house. Toriel glances over at Apollo and smiles softly-

"Apollo I'm over here by the flowers. Want to help out? Well..help as much as you can?"

-Apollo looks in the direction Toriel was speaking and hesitantly went over to her-

"well um.. Can I help with something else..? I don't trust myself with planting stuff"

-Toriel thinks for a moment before nodding-

"you can help Rooth! The poor dear is always alone and bored picking the berries and corn"

"Rooth.. Um. Alright. A bit of help please..?"

-Toriel nods and got up. She holds Apollo's hand and leads him to the shed were Rooth was, dumping some baskets of berries into barrels for later. Toriel knocks on the shed's door to get Rooth's attention. Suddenly Apollo heard a country accent and tilts his head, confused to who the accent belonged to until the person spoke-

"Oh! Miss Toriel! Whut brings yawl hay— ooh! Ah say now. Hello thayure! Ahm Rooth. Whuts chur name?"

(Oh! Miss Toriel! What brings you he— ooh! I see now. Hello there! I'm Rooth. What's your name?)

-Apollo blinks and smiles under his mask-

"I'm Apollo. Not to be rude but.. You have a funny accent!"

-Rooth smiles and chuckles. Rooth puts down the basket he was holding and walked up to Apollo, giving him a pat on the head. Apollo smacks Rooth's hand away from instincts and hid behind Toriel. Toriel sighed and shook her head in disappointment. Giving Apollo some memories of his father. He just knew Toriel was disappointed. Just like how his father was all the time-

"Yore uh strong wun frum whut Ah can tell frum thet slap alone! Naw need tuh hide buddy, Ah won't hart yawl. Fah did Miss Toriel would tell mah parents an yawl bet Ahl git punished!"

(you're a strong one from what I can tell from that slap alone! No need to hide buddy, I won't hurt you. If I did Miss Toriel would tell my parents and you bet I'll get punished!)

"oh.. Sorry. It's just—... I have no excuse... Feel free to slap me or whatever.."

-Apollo sighs and gets a hand placed on his shoulder after coming out of hiding. The accent softened and became much more clear. Apollo couldn't see who it was but it was somehow.. Comforting. The soft sound of the voice and it's calm tone made him feel more safe-

"listen. It's alright... It's not your fault either. It's just what you were taught. And there's nothing wrong with that! With that said no need to apologize! You can go for now Miss Toriel. I can handle him! If I need help I always know where to go!"

-Toriel sighs and nods, smiling softly. She enjoyed when Rooth acted so mature, it's the reason why she didn't intervene much when Rooth is around. Before Toriel left she made sure to tell Rooth go be careful and help Apollo as Apollo was well.. Blind. Rooth of course agreed and instead of making Apollo walk he picked Apollo up and ran off to the corn fields, happy to have a new bud to help out. Apollo lets out a yelp and held onto Rooth as if his life depends on it. And with that Apollo gained a friend. Even if it was all of the sudden.. Rooth was still a friend... For now.
