My brain, instantly: What if Arthur—

—was a witch who ran a little general store like this and sold simple potions and charms to help people out, and Alfred ended up checking the place out due to curiosity, then ended up becoming a regular customer because he liked the person who ran the shop and because the products were useful. Then one day he comes in to buy a bunch of luck and courage potions so he can work up the nerve to ask out a special someone. 👁️👁️

And what if Alfred alluded to this, but Arthur, not knowing who the special someone is and feeling a bit jealous, gives out fake potions or anti-charms that hinder Alfred’s chances to confess (free of charge).

Example, if Arthur gave a potion that was supposed to make Alfred too embarrassed to talk to his crush. Shortly after, Alfred stops coming to see him for some strange reason. 🫢

It turns out, though, Alfred is coming to see him, he's just hiding behind a tree and failing to get any closer.

Arthur tries to approach or talk to him, but Alfred immediately runs away or comes up with some excuse.

Poor Arthur is baffled and frustrated.

Next time Alfred comes (to the nearby tree, anyway), Arthur asks what the deal is, if Alfred's too busy with his new boyfriend now or something, and Alfred just looks at him in confusion.

"What boyfriend?"

"The fellow you were going to confess to?"

"I can't!" And then he runs away again.

Next time Arthur finds Alfred behind the tree, he asks, "Why can't you confess?"

"For some reason, I can't make myself talk to him for very long anymore. It's like something's holding me back. I guess I keep losing my nerve."

It's as Arthur expected, and he opens his mouth to say something else, but Alfred's already making a mad dash out of there.

The time after, Arthur asks, "Why won't you talk to me like you used to?"

"I don't know!" Then Alfred elaborates, and Arthur hears that same reason from earlier, "It's like something's holding me back. I guess I keep losing my nerve..."

Realisation dawns upon Arthur. He inwardly admits he maaaayy have been foolish. And now he has to administer an antidote.

If he can manage to catch Alfred, that is.

Tackling him to the ground may be necessary.

Two DnD characters I made for a Shadowdark campaign. Alfred is a half orc training to be a pit fighter, he and the other trainees kept talking about the grumpy old witch that lives in the forest near the training grounds. And in their free time they play chicken by getting as close as they can to Arthur's door and running away and laughing. And when Alfred gets a shot at it he trips over his own two feet and lands smack on Arthur's doorstep. And Arthur opens the door just unamused like "You pit fighters are annoying I just want to be left alone."

And Alfred is speechless because no one told him that the witch was that fucking cute like hnnnnnng Alfred is smitten. And so he tries to woo Arthur but Arthur is a solitary little gremlin who hates people. But he does fall for Alfred and they get married, so eventually he hates everyone except his husband.

I did not draw the hands. I realise this. I didn't want to ruin it 😭

(Honestly whenever I think of witch bloodline Arthur things, I usually consider him more of a nature oriented witch with a side penchant for light, which are the sorts of demons he tends to attract (water, earth, maybe rot, and light). But he'd be the kind of witch people go to thinking he'd be an easy target, since a lot of the spells he shows off look like a bunch of sparkles and flowers and bubbles and such. But then they get there and he just smiles and goes all Glynda from Oz the Great and Powerful on them. "Oh no... the flowers are just for show" And then complete wreckage)

Not good with potion making
