#uncle eberwolf

[dadriusbiggestfan]

If I wrote an AO3 story about The Hexsquad (+ Eda, Raine, Camila, Darius + Eber maybe Lilith) finding Hunters diary from when he was the GG and reading it would anyone read it?

[possibly-a-table-or-just-gay]

Eberwolf headcanons because I'm cramming for an exam currently delirious I'm not even halfway through-

Throwing them under a readmore cus I'm not going to make you scroll past the amount I wrote

• The reason they ride large beasts like rat worms and sit on Darius's shoulder all the time is because he uses cat logic in that Higher up = Superior

• Very few scouts understand Beast (which is what I'm calling their language) and he gets really sick of pointing and their directions getting misinterpreted so he usually goes on his assignments solo or with their beasts (And Darius if he can convince him)

• Their mouth and vocal cords aren't shaped to speak English, and even if he could they wouldn't bother learning it. He sees no point on learning a language for people who can't be bothered to try and understand theirs

• When Eber first became a coven head, Darius attempted to start a conversation with him (Darius was also a fairly new coven head at this point, abt 23 years old). When he realised they could understand, but not speak English, he took it upon himself to try and learn Beast. Eber saw this as An Opportunity and began pointing at objects and saying what they are in Beast. Darius picked it up quickly and was soon able to translate for them.

• He is perfectly capable of walking bipedaly, but finds it much more efficient to trot around on all fours.

• They spend most of his time in Darius's office rather than their own, partly to annoy him and partly because he enjoys just coexisting with people

• Beast isn't yoda-speak or overly-simplified but sentences tend to be shorter and more blunt.

• I remember reading a fanfic about Eberwolf using nicknames and titles instead of names (if I find it I will credit the author) and I imagine they call Hunter "Cub"

• He curls up on the chests of people he loves partly to soothe them to sleep with his warmth and purring and partly to protect their internal organs like a furry shield (beast habits)

• During coven meetings, they regularly shit talk his coworkers out loud since only Darius can understand them.

• Mostly Darius replies to Eberwolf in English, but when he's really tired or needs to discuss confidential information he'll just respond in Beast, which definitely throws people off seeing this distinguished gentleman speak in chirps and clicks

• When they ride on Darius's shoulder and need to get his attention they'll just yank on his ear, which absolutely pisses him off, which makes them do it more often

• He sees Darius as their brother-in-everything-but-blood, and pretty much accepted Hunter as a member of his pack immediately.

That's all I got so far, I'm going to fucking collapse 👍

Whispers Of Uncle's Ghost

This is my work for the dadrius week prompt "Uncle Eberwolf"

@sergeantsporks

I hope you all enjoy this ♡♡

Hunter had his arms wrapped around his legs and sighed for the third time in just a minute.

The day had actually started quite well. Darius, Eberwolf, and he had had their usual calm breakfast and then they all had gone for a walk in the woods. Since Eberwolf had found out that Hunter had never had a chance to really see nature and all its facets during his time in the coven, he had suggested some of his favorite places in the forest, to which the whole family now regularly took short hikes.

Hunter loved spending time with his family and all morning he had been filled with joy and happiness. However, it had come to an abrupt end when Darius had said something that made his blood run cold.

Eberwolf had unpacked some of their bags for hiking and Darius had said with a grin to Hunter, "Go help your Uncle Eberwolf, I'll make some hot tea and get some cookies from the cupboard."

The problem had been neither the cookies nor the tea, no, Darius had called Eberwolf Hunter's uncle. And even though Hunter definitely saw the little demon as a family member and he was incredibly fond of him, the word 'uncle' awakened a queasy feeling in him.

He had become quite dizzy and without another word he had disappeared upstairs in his room, where he now sat in a corner and had to hold back his tears.

Did Eberwolf expect him to address him as uncle? Did Darius expect him to do it?

Hunter didn't know if he was ready to call someone else uncle. Not after everything that happend. The last one he had called that was Belos and whenever he thought of him he got scared and his knees started to shake.

But would Eberwolf be disappointed in him if he didn't call him uncle? Especially now that he started to call Darius Dad from time to time? Would Eberwolf feel bad or left out? Hunter didn't want to be the reason he felt hurt, but he didn't think he was capable of saying it without panicking.

He tried, but as soon as he just thought of the word, his throat seemed to tightened and he was unable to say it. A tear ran down his cheek.

Would Eberwolf and Darius be disappointed in him that he couldn't even say that simple word? It was just a word. It shouldn't be so hard to say it, right?

There was a sudden knock at the door. Hunter let his face sink into his arms and sighed a soft, "Come in."

The door was gently pushed open and from the footsteps Hunter knew it must have been Eberwolf. He toddled over to him and gently placed one of his small hands on his upper arm.

Hunter sighed and sat up straight. He raised a hand, wiped the tear from his cheek, and looked over at Eberwolf with sad eyes.

"Darius has been worried ever since you ran away," Eberwolf said softly, gently brushing another stray tear from Hunter's cheek as it escaped his eyes, "What's wrong?"

Hunter tried to look at Eberwolf as he said it, but was unable to. "Darius- Darius said something. Nothing- nothing bad or anything, but well, I- I don't know- it felt- weird."

Eberwolf waited a moment to see if Hunter had anything else to add before saying softly, "I heard what he said. Do you want to tell me what didn't feel good about it?"

"That word Darius used," Hunter said, frustration in his voice. Frustration that he still couldn't say uncle.

"Uncle?" Eberwolf asked softly, giving Hunter one of his typical smiles. Hunter nodded slowly and looked to the ground.

"Belos was the last one I called that." he admitted, "I- I see you as part of the family, I really do, but that- that word just feels wrong. But I don't want to disappoint you or exclude you from anything really."

Eberwolf slowly spread his arms and Hunter had to smile softly as he stepped closer to him, climbing onto his lap and snuggling gently against him. "You don't have to give me a fancy family name to show me you love me, cub. I know that just the same. I'm sure Darius wasn't fully thinking when he said that. We both just want you to be okay."

"Okay, " Hunter said whose heart was now so full that tears came to his eyes again. He nuzzled his face into Eberwolf's incredibly soft mane of hair and sighed, but this time out of relief.

When Darius came into the room a few minutes later, presumably to see if he was all right, he smiled softly as he found the two of them snuggling.

"Hey," he said to Hunter, "is everything okay?"

Hunter nodded. "Yeah. Love you Dad."

Darius smiled softly and came over to them briefly to give them both a gentle kiss on the forehead. "And I love you guys. You are the best family in the world."

Hunter lost his uncle Belos, but he gained Uncle Eber so like he's obv winning in life

Y’all ever seen that poem that goes.

“Show me your scars?” The boy asked.

“Why?” Asked the girl.

“Because I want to know how many times you needed me and I wasn’t there.” The boy replied.

Imagine that with Darius/Eber + Hunter.

[dadriusbiggestfan]

I just want you to know if Eberwolf was big enough he would 100% carry Hunter everywhere.

I Can feel it in my soul.
