#mr badwolf

[deltadawnsqpwife]

Since Mr Badwolf seems to encourage bad behaviours in his General Villainy class, do you think he’d allow his students to swear in class?

Fic idea where Grimm finds out about Ashlynn and Hunter and decides that in order to get things back on track Hunter will be sent to live with Badwolf for the summer, partly a punishment, partly a "living with your destined enemy and your dad's destined enemy will teach you a thing or two about following your destiny." After all, Badwolf followed his destiny to the letter even when it meant his fated death, and when that somehow didn't happen, he became a teacher and devoted his life to teaching students how to be their best evil selves and fulfill their destiny to the best of their abilities. If only his daughter followed in his footsteps. Surely a couple of months living with a man so devoted to destiny, who never puts a foot out of line, will be a good influence on Hunter. And the intimidation factor won't hurt either.

Well. Little does Grimm know.

Neither Bad nor Ramona are particularly thrilled to have Hunter staying with them, not just because Hunter has an appetite as big as, well, your average active growing teenage boy and teaching doesn't pay as well as Bad would like it to, but also because summer is the one time they get to freely spend time (well, free-er) with the other half of their family and Hunter being here will make things very inconvenient.

So Hunter shows up to find a gruff but civil Badwolf who isn't nearly as unpleasant as he feared, and a Ramona who isn't bothering to hide her resentment and antagonism. He tries to be helpful, offering to help with the chores whenever possible. He keeps trying to get Ramona to pass messages to Ashlynn through Justine (Ashlynn is spending her summer being shunted from royal family to royal family in the hope that they'll teach her that a princess does not deign to consider marrying a commoner).

Ramona refuses, on the grounds that if she's going to have a miserable summer because of him (she didn't get to see Cerise for ages because of that stupid reform school, and they got a scant few months together at school where they could barely even talk to each other, and then finally they were going to be free to spend time together for the whole summer and then Hunter shows up) then she's going to make his summer miserable in return. This causes conflict between her and her father, who has a lot of sympathy for Hunter and Ashlynn and wants to help them but of course can't show it around Hunter. Neither can he and Ramona argue about it when Hunter is in the house. There are a lot of slammed doors and tense silences between the two.

The Huntsman keeps showing up and threatening to murder Badwolf with his axe "for real this time" if Hunter is unhappy, let alone mistreated; he doesn't approve of his son's fondness for that princess but neither did he want his son to spend months alone with the hated Badwolf.

Rumors start drifting that Hunter is developing feelings for Ramona, which could not be further from the truth. Ramona hears it from Cerise (during one of their rare, clandestine meetings in the woods at the crack of dawn before Hunter gets up to start chopping wood; why does that boy have to be so helpful? Can't he sleep in once in a while?) who hears it from Raven who hears it from Apple who hears it from Darling who hears it from...Well, the gossip in the royalty community hasn't been very entertaining for Ashlynn lately.

Ramona keeps trying to convince her father to let them tell Hunter the truth, on the grounds that if anyone would sympathize and keep the secret it's him because that's the entire reason he's stuck with them, and then they can finally head off to Hood Hollow to see Red and Cerise. Bad refuses, because while he sympathizes with the young couple and wants to see them succeed and not have to hide like he and Red still do, he hasn't kept his family together this long by revealing the truth to anyone, anyone at all. He's seen the frenzied mobs in Hood Hollow, and he has good reason to be paranoid about word getting out.

Cerise, who had been looking forward to spending time with her father and sister just as much as they had been with her and her mother, keeps dropping by ostensibly to visit Hunter, on the grounds that the're the two heroes of their fairy tale and if he's going to save her life one day, they should get to know each other better. Hunter comments that it's very brave of Cerise to keep visiting her family's sworn enemies, including the girl who's supposed to try to kill her one day. Cerise says she's gotten much braver in the past year or two. Both Red and Bad try to dissuade this, seeing this as a foolhardy risk, but Cerise is nearly as sick as Ramona of the constant secret-keeping and is just as stubborn as her sister.

Things come to a head around the beginning of August when Hunter comes back from fetching water from the well and walks into the tail of yet another argument between Ramona and Badwolf (he's gained a lot of sympathy for the teacher over the past few weeks, never knowing that the man had had such a volatile relationship with his daughter). Ramona is saying "You knew what you were getting into! You chose this life! We didn't!" before running out of the house and off into the woods, which is usually what happens; she'll run and run and punch a few trees until her energy wears off and her anger exhausts itself. At least she didn't break anything this time; Hunter is still patching up the hole in the drywall.

Hunter looks at Badwolf. Badwolf looks at Hunter.

"I know you love your princess," he says, the first time he's directly alluded to the reason Hunter is here for the summer in the first place. "But think of the cost."

On that cryptic note, he retreats to his study, and never brings it up again.

the job market in ever after must be shit if badwolf had to become a teacher. maybe he wanted to teach but the fact that he has to act like THIS 24/7:

knowing full well he’s got a secret wife and two kids at home, the actual antithesis of destiny. idk if the books actually mention why but id assume he does it to stay on grimm’s good side and not suspect his family.

if i were him, i’d lowkey be having an existential crisis all the time. you literally defy the so called fabric of ur universe but you have to keep it a secret, force your own kids to keep it a secret. then you gotta work for [and kiss ass to] someone who upholds this oppressive system AND continue to force this system on children. including your own!!!

Badwolf growls at Red.

Red:

Badwolf: A-aren’t you scared?

Red: Why would I be? Your tail was wagging the entire time.

I headcanon that Cupid has to act scared around things that are completely normal to her, but she doesn't exactly know what the Ever After High students consider scary so she acts..overly afraid of everything.

That moment she was scared of the woods? Fake.

She acts very overly afraid of Mr. Badwolf and other villains and Mr. Badwolf feels really bad because he doesn't know why he scares Cupid so much.

Everyone tries to figure out what DOESN'T scare Cupid and Cupid just acts afraid of any little thing they show her that's slightly creepy.

Blondie is very confused by this because she literally has skulks with little pink bows in their room, she does specials on her mirrorcast about Cupid and her fears.

But at the same time she says really creepy fucked up shit by Ever After High standards.

"I miss eating eyeballs :("

"I miss talking to dead people."

No one knows what's up with Cupid, she is forever confusing to them.
