Nostalgic Memories

Child!Malleus Draconia & Fem!MC!Reader

Prompt/Note: Based on this one, Tik Tok (yeah, I downloaded it as a joke but got sucked in) I found where Lilia accidentally splashes a potion onto Malleus and Malleus becomes like a 7-8-year-old? And I couldn't help but think what would happen if MC had to take care of little Malleus?

I'll probably make a chapter two if I think of more plot to go off of. I just want to hug child Malleus because it's pretty much common sense he must have been very lonely during his childhood.

Cheers!

This could not be true.

Malleus was a centuries-old six-foot-tall fae.

Now, the fae before you was three times younger, and three times smaller. You really hadn't expected to be called in by Lilia to discover this.

You knew it was Malleus since he still had his large horns and his bright emerald eyes. When his eyes locked with yours, you could see his eyes widen with recognition.

He rushed over to you and wrapped his arms around your hips, ducking his head in a sort of shy hug.

"Ma-Malleus is a child?" Your question aimed at Lilia, "How did this happen?"

"It was an honest accident--the vial had overspilled and droplets landed on Malleus' skin. Bless the Seven it was simply a de-aging spell," Lilia explained.

"It's a shame what happened to the young master!" Sebek wailed. He honestly looked close to crying too.

"The unfortunate thing is he does not remember anything until he was seven centuries old, and there is no available cure. Mr. Crewel claimed it would only last a week or so, but until then it's impossible for anyone to see him. We can't risk Malleus being seen in the public eye like this," Lilia sighed heavily.

You looked down at Malleus who was still holding onto your skirt like he was afraid of letting you go. With a gentle hand, you pet his head between his smaller version of horns. Malleus let go only to raise his arms up signaling he wanted to be picked up.

You smiled and granted him, leaning down to gently scoop him up and onto your side. He seemed to be attracted to your necklace, fidgeting and examining it.

"Malleus seems to be quite attached to you, when he was this age he was quite shy but still curious." Lilia chuckled.

You smiled down at Malleus and he shyly smiled back, his pale, chubby cheeks flush with a rosy pink color. His eyes seemed softer and larger, even his pointed ears were large compared to his body.

Your brows knitted as you realized something, "Then...why am I here?"

"Malleus would be safer at the Ramshackle Dorm than in Diasomnia. Your dorm is empty other than you and your monster friend--perhaps we could stay there for a while?"

"We?"

"Of course, the young master would need supervision! He is vulnerable and defenseless being any easily trusting child and we must protect him at all costs from anyone who dares to create harm upon him!" How Sebek could monologue so long and so loudly without being winded was an unanswerable curiosity.

Malleus grew bored of your necklace and instead examined your ear gently pinching the tip.

"I...Well, you have no other choice do you..." You sighed, "Fine. But I'll need to discuss this with Grimm first."

"Excellent! I'll start packing!" Lilia giggled before hurrying off.

Oh dear god, what did I get myself into...?...

Sure enough, it took a bit of convincing to get Grim to agree to Malleus and his retainers' stay at the dorm.

Half a dozen tuna cans later and he agreed.

Sure enough, the very second Sebek saw his room he was displeased. All the spare guest rooms had a thin layer of dust everywhere from lack of use but the bed sheets were freshly washed and the window was open to allow fresh air in.

Silver seemed rather unperturbed since he could literally sleep anywhere. Lilia knew just a simple sweep of magic would fix it up.

For young Malleus he was absolutely delighted to be staying in your dorm. As soon as he saw the building in the distance his eyes widened and a wide smile grew on his face.

Since the others were busy with their rooms you offered to help Malleus as he explored. With a big flap, the duvet floated down onto the bed. You tucked in the edges and smoothed any big wrinkles.

"Human!" Sebek barked causing you to jump.

You didn't even hear him walk to the door.

"Sebek?"

"I wish to discuss with you," The knight said.

"Can that wait just a few minutes, I have to finish making the bed." You passed the fae to the other side of the bed to tuck the excess under.

"No. We must discuss this now. I find it odd how the young master requested to see you. Yet I do not believe he met you before NRC."

You paused and gave him a look before finishing tucking in the corner.

"No, I didn't meet him until after I settled into Night College." You answered.

You wiped your hands on the front of your pants before grabbing the pillows on the floor.

"Then why did Malleus request for you? How did he know you?" Sebek demanded.

"You ask as if I know and honestly I don't, I mean maybe he just likes my vibes? My mother always said I was a kid magnet." You shrugged. 

Before Sebek could speak further Malleus came rushing in nearly knocking down Sebek like a bowling pin. At first, you were concerned it was urgent at how fast he came rushing in, but there was a big smile on his face.

It was rare to see Malleus smile, to see his younger version smiling so sweetly made you wonder why he ever stopped.

"What's up Malleus?" You asked, noticing he had his hands behind his back.

You crouched down and smiled patiently.

"Malleus brought a gift for you!" Lilia announced from the doorway.

"For me? What is it?" You asked.

"For you." From behind his back, he pulled out a few picked roses.

"For me? How lovely!" You awed gently taking them from his hand.

The fresh flowers against your nose smelled just as lovely as you imagined.

"These will be perfect for an empty vase in my room. You're too sweet." You pet his head and Malleus smiled with a blush across his cheeks.

Sebek seemed envious of you but said nothing...

Later that night you were snuggled up in bed. Grimm was behind your knees taking up as much space as possible.

All was calm and quiet.

A tiny creak from the door woke you up to make you aware of a presence. You heard the soft falls of feet crossing the area rug before we arrived at your bed. You listened to a slight grunt before a small body pulled on the sheets.

Your eyes cracked open just enough to watch Malleus climb up onto the bed using the sheets. Once he was up he crawled over to you and gently laid down beside you.

You yawned and shifted showing the young fae you were awake.

"Malleus? What's wrong?" You asked.

"I didn't want to sleep alone." The boy answered, "I'm sorry for waking you."

"No, no it's fine." You sighed.

"A-Are you going to send me back to my room?" Malleus asked almost nervously.

"Hm? Why would I? You said you'd feel better if you slept with someone."

Malleus beamed and snuggled up close, resting his head on your chest.

"You just wanted cuddles, hm? Why not ask Lilia?" You teased wrapping your arm around him.

"You're much more comfy." He said shyly.

"I don't mind. Come on, let's get some rest."

Malleus closed his eyes and breathed in your familiar scent; roses, lilacs, vanilla, and citrus.

The woman in white.

She had gracefully knelt down to wipe away his tears. Just her smile wiped any fear he had in an instant.

She had taken his hand and led him away from the heart of the thorny forest. White butterflies fluttered around him making him giggle and smile.

He heard the call of his caretaker, Lilia, and he ran to find the fae. When he turned around to thank the woman, she was gone in the wind.

Yet he never could feel as safe and relaxed as he did when he was with her.

The same feeling of safety and comfort he could feel from you...

soulbound AU

A+ trope! I have to admit that I do actively seek out soulmate AUs :) They are a great way to introduce angst into a fic (and to prod enemies > lovers to get started ❤️)

I think there's really so much variety they offer - like you can have the "name of your soulmate" mark AU, or "first words" AU or "countdown timer" AU or countless other versions. Plus you can have them appear at birth, or when the characters come of age, or when they first meet, or first touch, or who knows when else. And then you can also introduce complications like one member of the ship has a mark and the other doesn't (or doesn't think they do) - ooh lovely angst!

Some excellent Drarry fics with the soulmate trope are:

Written on the Heart by who_la_hoop (which features "name of your soulmate" + "one member has a mark and the other doesn't" + "the mark was a freak occurrence and unexpected")

hello goodbye ('twas nice to know you) by tamerofdarkstars (featuring "changing marks reflecting your soulmate's current thoughts about you")

Kiss Me Not by DorthyAnn (featuring "being physically unable to kiss anyone but your soulmate")

Another thing I love about this trope is how so many versions of it are fandom-original, and are used by fanfic authors across multiple fandoms and ships. It's amazing what authors have come up with. So here are a few recs from other fandoms too:

Second Chances by rootbeer (Sterek - this one features a very unfortunate set of "first words")

Flare by WishingStar (Stucky - featuring a "flare" at touch and two poor boys fighting against it because of period-typical homophobia)

Thanks for the ask!

Rarepair Day: Wishing Star

Wishing Star (Wander/Hat)

Reasons to ship/why this ship is interesting:

- Wander and the Hat are very dependent on each other for help and provide a strong sense of security for each other

- They’re always together and have been together for a very long time (at least 1000 years, since Wander had his hat when he offered Major Threat a picnic).

Prompts:

- Write about The Hat’s origin; consider a possibility where the hat used to be a star nomad, and when it accidentally wronged a witch, she turned him into a hat.

- Create content about Wander where each time enters a new galaxy, the hat begins offering him names he can use.

Other Wishing Star Prompts: This post has one.
