𝚆𝙴𝙻𝙲𝙾𝙼𝙴 !  this blog is an  independent  &  private  writing blog for the character   𝙰𝙻𝙴𝚇𝙴𝙸 𝙰𝙽𝚃𝙾𝙽𝙾𝚅   from the syfy series   𝙱𝙸𝚃𝚃𝙴𝙽.   given that alexei is a character specific to the television show,  he will primarily be  headcanon based.   however,  i will still take inspiration from the women of the otherworld novel series when it comes to worldbuilding and the like.  penned by becker, 27, she/her.

                              WHAT'S YOUR ROLE IN A FOUND FAMILY DYNAMIC?

the silent sufferer.

you love your friends,  but the truth is,  you go through most of the real things alone.   it's better that no one sees you like this.   you'll be fine,  really,  because you're used to feeling this way.   it'll pass.   it always does.   that's what you believe,  anyway.   you're more likely to give someone advice on a lesson you've learned without telling them how you learned it.   you've come to realize that,  if they're coming to you for advice,  they'll be too preoccupied to ask.   it stings,  but it's...   that's just the way feelings work sometimes.   when you're around others,  most of these problems seem to vanish,  and you're better able to love the person you are.   only on the worst days do you continue to hear that insistent whisper that it's,  "all a lie because they don't know what's really going on."   it's not a lie.   you are loved.   those moments together are real.   there are times when you can afford not to be so strong.

the scene where alexei reverts back to russian to tell his dad to lay down and rest lives rent free in my mind at all times

So what’s next? You heal. You grow. And you help others.

letting a traumatized character have their happy ending where they can recover from their trauma will always be a thousand times more powerful than killing them off for shock value

          “You’re like one of–” If she wasn’t sure, even if she knew he was something, Bree knew it wasn’t her place to out the entire pack. “— Um. What are you?”  // @wolfonov​ liked for a starter!

                     ❝       whoa.  you smell...  𝐰𝐞𝐢𝐫𝐝.       ❞       understatement of the year,  dude.  she smells like him.  or rather -  that's not right.  she smells absolutely nothing like him,  or elena,  or any other werewolf he's come across.  it clings to the back of his throat and burns his nostrils,  sharp and chemical.  tolerable but extremely off putting.  like when katia would screw up painting her nails and the house would suddenly be filled with the smell of acetone,  a voice in the back of his head offers.

she smells like him in the sense that he can tell she's something else.  not werewolf --  but not human,  either.  and while that alone should be enough to set off all the red flags his father taught him to look out for,  this wouldn't be the first time his curiosity has gotten the better of him.       ❝       i could ask you the same thing.  i mean,  what kind of --       ❞       voice pitches lower,  just in case.       ❝       what kind of  wolf  are you ?       ❞

sir, that’s my emotional support beloved minor background character

[inkskinned]

i loved you so much and i couldn’t save you. do you know what that’s like, when your hands aren’t stable enough to hold something so important. to watch your own reflection drop everything precious in this world into the fire. do you know what it’s like to burn alongside, whispering, please, i tried, i swear to god that i tried

it constantly amazes me just how trusting alexei is,  especially when it comes to elena.   like.   his whole life,  its been constantly drilled into him that other wolves are dangerous.   his dad kills mutts for this reason.   he has seen firsthand how ruthless wolves can be when he watched his mom die.   alexei never even knew elena existed until his dad uprooted the family and dragged him on an international road trip to find her.   he knew absolutely nothing about her aside from what a quick google search revealed about her public persona.   she is a literal stranger with his father’s eyes,  but he immediately puts his trust into her because she’s family and in his mind,  family is such a tight knit,  sacred thing.   elena being untrustworthy is unimaginable.   his trust can be attributed to how young and naive he is,  sure,  but it also goes to show what sasha was talking about when he called alexei kind.   he tried to teach him to be tough but alexei is such a naturally gentle person;  he has a soft heart in a cruel world and sasha couldn’t bear to destroy it.

HEADCANON　　-　　01.

katia had always been more like a mother than an older sister.   after their mother was killed,  she never once hesitated on stepping up,  despite being barely a few years older than alexei himself and struggling with her own trauma.  when nights got rough and their father too overcome with grief or paranoia,  katia was the one who looked after her little brother. 

alexei’s panic attacks began not long after he witnessed their mother’s death,  the nightmares even sooner.   even then,  katia was the one who’d talk him through it.   whenever alexei would feel himself tipping into an attack or getting lost in flashbacks of that day,  katia would begin to sing for him.   it never really mattered what she sang,  alexei just needed to hear the sound of her voice.  most of the time,  she’d sing to him in russian,  just like their mother used to.

she’d usually sing children’s lullabys or hum wordless melodies,  something for alexei to focus on other than whatever it was that had triggered him in the first place.   and it would work.   by the end of the song,  alexei would have usually forgotten whatever had upset him,  or,  as he got older,  at least have his breathing under control,  having been guided through the worst of it.

between his mother,  his father,  and katia--   katia’s death hit him hardest.  without her guiding hand,  alexei has had to find a new way to cope.   his panic attacks don’t happen too often now that the imminent threat of the russian pack is behind him,  but the anxiety and paranoia instilled in him since childhood is harder to leave behind.  nowadays,  should he feels on the verge of an attack,  he’ll put in earphones and try to lose himself in music instead.   it’s not the same,  nothing will ever be the same,  but he’s found it’s getting better.
