hc + denial
Shadow is still in denial about his Master disappearing. He refuses to believe that the man who was like a father to him has died, and is eagerly awaiting his return. He wants his children to have a relationship with their ‘grandfather’. Likewise, Darkness is in denial about about his mates being gone. While he fears more for Illene, he knows Dual is safe at the lake temple with the twins, but as for Black and Time, he’s unsure. He knows they can easily take care of themselves and the two of them have a tendency to move around unexpectedly. He just prays they’re safe. Kage is prone to fits of denial as well, as he doesn’t take loss very well. If Darki (or in AU, Tenka) were to die, it would take him a very long time to come to terms with it. Luetia, however, isn’t in denial about someone he loves, but instead, he’s in denial about himself. He believes that he’s worthless, having no magical powers that he knows of, being incapable of wielding any weapon he’s tried. (Though he hasn’t tried a staff yet.He thinks it would be a disgrace to his family of swordsmen and archers to use such a ‘low’ weapon.) Despite his father’s, brothers’ and sisters’ assurances, he feels he will forever let his family down. Little does he know what is in store for him.
