Thank you post #2
I think the tag limit is 5... so that's how many people I will tag.
Main post
all of these mentions are PH related
@funky-sea-cryptid
Tam 🥺 You DMed me out of nowhere saying something along the lines "I know I haven't read PH yet, but I can already tell it's great, because I can see how much passion you put into your illustrations and in this project". I was simply stunned 😂 You're also so easyand great to talk to that this obviously escalated and I'm so happy I did. With you after all I tied up the Drazel familia backstory details and you're still the only one who knows it 😁. Thank you for sharing your amazing stories and inspiring me, but also being a good friend. I turned to you when I had writer's block and you were there to support me.
@t-f-t
The story of how we started talking will never stop being funny and I can proudly say, you helped me write that first smut 😂 You also really support my writing and drawings. I'm ashamed to admit how many times I ran crying to you "ALEX please help me with my draaaawing" and thanks to you I improved so much with drawing fabric and PH illustrations have you to thank for the quality.
Also our Zobra conversations really helped me pinpoint the details that I want to touch with them in PH. I'm really happy with how they're looking now.
@f-oighear
Can you become friends through making fun of Nozel in Ao3 comments? We are a proof you can.
PH wise you left a comment under each and every one chapter and they're all so funny, brilliant and you bring up many important points. I love that you have your theories, what I don't love is holding myself back from revealing them and not sending you illustrations ahead. 😂 You're already getting too much Zobra and Gabriessa snips.
PH and not PH wise I'm so happy to have met you and become your friend. We bond over the bird siblings, hamilton and other stuff and we will continue on building up the birb Ao3 tag. I don't think I can put in one post how much I appreciate you.
@purpled-royalty
I think you're the only one in this group who i met on twitter and let me tell you how happy I am. We talked about OCs and it just clicked. PH wise I'm so happy that you're interested in this story and started reading 🥺 and have discussions with me about it, also you help me so much with my art. The amount of WIPs I'm sending you is impressive, especially with illustrations. Thank you for becoming my friend.
@the-black-bulls
I actually reached out to you, because of LPoL not PH, but as topics tend to shift when the conversation is fun it turned to this as well. I was so pleasantly surprised to find out that you adored the Bird siblings as much as I do and loved discussing about them, different headcanons and everything. I felt that you were genuinely interested in what PH has to offer with them and I know you read some chapters. It makes me really happy. Also now I got to share more about Gabriel with you, which I appreciate so much as well. Thank you for everything.

I'm reading the explanation and I know I'll read it again over and over, because this is so THOUGHT THROUGH 😍
I LOVE THIS ART, it's so beautiful, serene and just perfect, but the fact that there's symbolism behind it makes it unique.
Thank you again for doing the art trade with me, I had such a blast and let me get back to staring at the art again 💕😍🥺
Tumblr media
梅が香を...
This is my end of an art trade with @kalolasfantasyworld! Working on this was an absolute BLAST (as you can tell from the five page Google Doc of explanations for all the stuff I did not need to add lmao) and I had so much fun with it! Thank you for doing the art trade with me Lola :D 
Full explanation of history and themes below:
Historical Overview
The Edo period (1600-1867) is pretty prominent in modern culture, and is often romanticized as one of THE periods of Japanese cultural significance. Hinokuni (Land of the Sun) in Black Clover is based off of Edo-period Japan, or at least the late Muromachi pd.
You might know this as a time of samurai, ninja, etc. However, a fair amount of that is completely wrong. Edo period society was carefully structured to maintain peace. There was no war, and therefore virtually no work to be done for warriors – save a few rebellions, samurai were basically unemployed. However, since all of the power was in the hands of the military, they remained at the top of the rigid hierarchy established by the shogunate. This ended up putting the samurai in a strange situation: they grew more and more financially destitute, but still kept their high status as society slowly broke down over 200 years. 
In the mid 1700s, however, Japan was the most urbanized country in the world. Woodblock printing meant that media became available to everyone for a much lower cost than it would if everything was an individually commissioned drawing. “Modern” consumer pop culture arrived and evolved in Japan much earlier than other places, and part of pop culture was the ukiyo-e.
What is ukiyo-e? 
Have you ever wanted to see a hand drawn and carefully reproduced woodblock print of a woman having sex with an octopus? I imagine you don’t, but we’re on Tumblr, so. You can’t be sure. 
Anyway, If you know The Great Wave off Kanagawa, the glorious and quintessential piece of Japanese art, that was done by Katsushika Hokusai. Hokusai, the mad lad, also printed women fucking octopodes. Both of these things are (according to the people of the time) a depiction of the “Floating World,” ukiyo. The Floating World refers to the beautiful, fleeting, and hedonistic red-light district of Edo (now Tokyo) which was literally a man-made sex and theatre island. Pictures of the Floating World are usually the traditional Japanese woodblock print, and can be anything from beautiful flowers to famous actors to scenic views to pictures of lovers, to… well, porn. A lot of porn.
However, this particular drawing is (thankfully) based off of Lovers Walking in the Snow (Crow and Heron), a wood-block print that dates to around 1770.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The long sleeves on the woman is one of the signs of the mid-Edo period, as those were in fashion at the time.
According to the Met, “Of all ukiyo-e prints of lovers, this one creates the most romantic and melancholic mood. Harunobu emphasizes the intimacy of two lovers strolling in the snow, even suggesting perhaps a michiyuki, a path to a love suicide.” The love suicide or double suicide was considered one of the most romantic things lovers could do at the time…. which… you know, that’s cool for them, but I wanted to thematically move away from that for this one, so I switched the crow to a crane 😭 This only partially solved the problem but I swear they’re not going to kill themselves guys I love Nozelena and there are other reasons I picked this print, please – 
Crow and Heron was created by Suzuki Harunobu, who invented the nishiki-e, or multicolored woodblock print. Prints prior to his innovation were limited to two or three colors, but Harunobu’s wealthy commissioners gave him enough money and time to carve up to twelve individual wood blocks to print many different colors onto one sheet of paper.
He is also famously known for fucking hating kabuki performers, so sorry, Harunobu, but I’m putting you in here with mentions of kabuki actors lmao. shoutout to Wikipedia for Harunobu facts please don’t kill me hbomberguy im just a little man with dreams 
Clothes 
I want to preface this by saying that these clothes are NOT COMPLETELY HISTORICALLY ACCURATE. With that being said, let’s get into the Themes :]  
Helena, our Crane, is wearing clothing that’s pretty similar to the woman in Crow and Heron, but she’s also wearing an auspicious red uchikake, or over-robe. Uchikake are only really used in wedding kimono in modern times, but they were frequently worn in everyday life by the wives of samurai-class nobles during the late Muromachi (1336-1573) and Edo periods. Consisting of a patterned silk robe left open over her white kimono with the fashionable long sleeves of the time, she’s hopefully a little more warm in the snow! 
Tumblr media

Plum blossoms are the flower of the month for February, and make up at least ten entries in the Kokinshu, a famous seasonal poem anthology. These white blossoms are often elegantly 'confused' with snow on the branches of the plum trees, and are a sure sign of early spring.
Given that this drawing is being posted around the time that these poems were likely written back in the 900s, I thought it would be fitting to put Helena in plum blossoms. You can also see faded plum blossoms in two corners of the piece. Cranes (tsuru) are associated with the same bright red that Helena’s almost always drawn in. They signify long life, purity, good luck, and fidelity. Overall, cranes have the same general happy connotations that I think of whenever I think of Helena, and they have the same colors -- they're perfect for each other!
You can see a version of Helena’s outfit with the hood in the ukiyo-e below, also done by Harunobu. 
Tumblr media
Nozel is styled as a daimyo or regional warlord of the time. I wanted initially to put him in a kataginu kamishimo, which you can see below, but the haori (jacket) and hakama (pants) that he’s wearing are also appropriate. 
Dressing him down and leaving his hair down saved me from having to draw his stupid braid hopefully gives the piece a more intimate feeling.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
If Nozel was a daimyo of the time period, he’d only see Helena a few months out of the year. The Tokugawa shogunate used a system called sankin koutai, or alternate attendance, to prevent the regional warlords from rising up and trying to usurp their rule. This system meant that the wives and children of the daimyo were forced to live in the capitol, and the daimyo could come to Edo once or twice a year to see them. The shogun having everyone’s wife and kids readily accessible to him at all times was… a pretty effective deterrent from treason, so Nozelena wouldn’t get to see each other often. Any time they would spend together would be very precious, and I hope I've depicted that feeling. 
Nozel’s haori hakama is not very traditional (usually it would be black with gold thread for the kamon, or family crest stitched onto the shoulders of the haori. You’ll see that where there’s meant to be a family crest, I’ve put the Silva cross), but there’s a reason for that. The EEO store New Year had a Nozel in a haori hakama that’s pretty close to the colors of the aosagi, or grey heron, and that gave me an idea. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Grey herons carry connotations with mystery and death, which fits well for a man who has a secret about death that he can’t reveal to anyone or risk killing them too. Herons are also featured in an incredible kabuki performance called Sagi Musume. This dance was famously done by onnagata Bando Tamasaburo (link here to watch! He’s a Living National Treasure: I can’t recommend it enough). It’s tragic, but beautiful. 
Crows and herons are both somewhat related to death, which is likely part of the reason that it’s intimated that the two lovers in Harunobu’s piece are walking to commit a double suicide. However, changing one of the birds in the metaphor to a crane lightens up the metaphor and makes it much more hopeful, which I associate with this ship. As spring comes in and the white snow melts away to reveal budding plum blossoms, so too does a little sun shine on the grey heron, trapped in his secret and closed off from the world. 
Or something like that. It’s pretty pretentious, but I enjoyed thinking about this relationship and conceptualizing the metaphors I wanted to use for this drawing.
Ai ai Gasa
The Met writes about Harunobu’s piece: “The couple walk together in the quietly falling snow, in what is known as an ai ai gasa pose, literally, the sharing of an umbrella and love.” I kept this pose for Nozel and Helena – I knew I wanted something to do with a paper umbrella, since our girl has paper magic. In the starting sketches, he was holding the umbrella over her head while she reached for koi in the river (koi in Japanese is a homophone for love), but this version of the pose is both more historically aligned and cuter in my opinion.
The umbrella actually exists. 
Tumblr media
This is a wagasa – a Japanese umbrella – made by Matsuda Wagasa in Kanazawa. It has Helena’s signature red as well as a Hangetsu/half moon pattern. Kanazawa umbrellas are different from any other wagasa makers in the country, and a dying craft. Matsuda is the only store left that still makes Kanazawa-style wagasa. I know no one on this site really has any money, but if you want to buy a piece of long-lasting, living art, please consider supporting them. 
The Poem
The writing that you see in the corner is a famous poem from the Kokinshu. However you ask me, “Alex. This is the Edo period. That’s the 1700s. This poem was from the 890s. The EIGHT. NINETIES. Why the hell are you using poetry in Classical Japanese? No one from the Edo period could understand something that was written 800 years ago at the time.” And to that I say: that’s a very logical conclusion! However, you are WRONG, because there’s nothing LOGICAL about ELEGANT, AESTHETIC PERFECTION!!! 
Classical Japanese (theoretically the Japanese used from around 900 to 1100) was used well into the Meiji period (1868-1912) whenever someone wanted to sound fancy or official. There are hundreds, maybe even thousands of poems about plum blossoms and spring, but I picked this one for a reason. Harunobu often included poems in his work to poke light fun at them, but the inclusion of this poem in my drawing was perfectly serious. I’ll leave you with it to close out the explanation of this drawing. I hope seeing this piece of art has given you a happy and soft feeling, even if it’s only brief – I love Helena, I love this ship a lot, and I appreciate how hard Lola has worked to understand Nozel’s character and create an OC that plays well with him. I know only a few people who have put in the time and effort to meet Nozel where he’s at instead of trying to make him into something he isn’t. I imagine that for a man who has experienced so much death and made so many mistakes in his life, Nozel’s feelings for Helena are somewhat like this poem.

can i PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE have a fic where gambit and reader have a baby/kid, i don't care about anything else i just want a kid with that man PLEASE (I am on my hands and kness begging you)
Pa's Lil spade
I know this is a bit more than you asked for but I went nuts with it. You are so fr for wanting a baby with this man (me too nonny me too). The reader is a mutant but I left that up to whatever you guys want. It is implied to be AFAB reader with how they refer to them but nothing is explicitly depicted. Could be read as a follow up to royal flush or a stand alone
Rating: T
Word count: 4.9k
Warnings: bad French, some anti mutant bull, remy being the best dad to cure my daddy issues, pure family fluff with a little angst, talk of explosions
If you liked this check of my masterlist or put in a request if they are open
Tumblr media
You padded through the quiet house in the early morning. Remy had been missing from the bed when you woke up, but you had a feeling you knew exactly where to find him. Pushing open the door to the nursery, you paused in the doorway, taking in the tender scene before you. Morning light filtered softly through the curtains, casting a gentle glow over Remy as he cradled your one-month-old daughter in his arms, her tiny form still peacefully asleep.
"Mon Dieu," he whispered as he heard you enter, his voice thick with emotion. "Remy never expected 'er to be so... petit."
"She is small," you agreed softly, moving closer to them. "A tiny little miracle."
Remy turned to face you, a smile tugging at the corner of his lips. "She's perfect, ain't she?" he said, gazing down at the small, sleeping bundle in his arms.
"Absolutely perfect," you agreed, watching your husband hold your daughter with such reverence that your heart swelled. You knew he'd probably stand there holding her for hours if he could, perfectly content.
He chuckled softly, his attention never wavering from the baby. With infinite gentleness, he stroked her velvet-soft cheek with one finger. "She goin' be a troublemaker, Remy can tell already," he said with a knowing smirk.
"Wonder where she'll get that from," you laughed softly, reaching up to kiss his cheek.
He feigned shock, placing his free hand over his heart with dramatic flair. "Remy, trouble? Never," he protested, shaking his head with exaggerated innocence before pulling you closer with his free arm, that familiar mischievous grin spreading across his face.
"You're a poor liar, mon cœur," you hummed, gazing down at your daughter. Your little Spade. You'd had to talk him down from naming her Queenie – Remy's taste in baby names had been a bit more... eccentric.
"Can't believe you made Remy change the name," he pouted, though his eyes never left their daughter's face as he traced her features with a gentle finger. "Queenie woulda been a good name," he added teasingly.
"Spade is perfect," you said, playfully rolling your eyes.
He let out an exaggerated sigh of defeat, though he couldn't quite hide his smile. "You're right, cher. Spade is perfect," he admitted, gently rocking the bundle in his arms.
"I'll go make breakfast," you said softly, reluctantly pulling away from their warmth. In the kitchen, you found yourself wrestling with the baby-proofed cabinets. You'd tried telling Remy there was no way Spade would be getting into cabinets when she could barely roll over, but he'd insisted on "better safe than sorry."
From the living room, Remy's teasing voice called out, "Careful, darlin', you might get trapped in there!"
"And whose fault would that be?" you called back. The sound of your voices stirred Spade, who responded with happy coos directed up at her father.
Remy's expression melted at the sound. "Not Remy's fault if you're too weak to open a cabinet, cher," he teased, though his voice was warm with affection.
"I'm gonna baby-proof your bedside table," you threatened playfully as you finally conquered the cabinet. In response, Spade began wiggling energetically in her father's arms.
Remy clutched dramatically at his chest with his free hand. "Not the bedside table, cher, that's low!"
As you started on breakfast, Remy found himself locked in battle with an infant determined to make a meal of his shirt. He tried redirecting her attention to a soft, chewable toy, but Spade remained fixated on her chosen target.
"Why does she only want to eat Remy's shirt and not the damn toy?" he grumbled in French, looking up at you with clear frustration.
"She's gotta soften her pa up to eat him when she's big enough," you quipped back.
Remy rolled his eyes but couldn't help chuckling. "Remy is not on the menu," he protested, still struggling to keep his shirt out of Spade's surprisingly strong grip.
"She doesn't seem to agree," you laughed, watching your husband's losing battle with your determined daughter.
"How can one little baby be so strong?" he complained, shooting you a desperate look.
Taking pity on him, you crossed the room and, with perfect timing, swapped his shirt for her pacifier just as she was about to chomp down. "Baby strength is no joke, hubs."
Remy sagged with relief as Spade happily accepted the pacifier, her mission to devour his shirt temporarily forgotten. "Thanks, cher," he said, flashing you a grateful smile. "Remy was about to lose his shirt there."
"And if Remy doesn't do something about the mosquito catcher on the fritz, he'll have to do more than worry about one baby-slobbered shirt – he'll have to do all his laundry," you warned playfully before returning to the stove.
Panic flashed across his face at the prospect. "Damn, okay, okay, Remy'll fix it," he quickly agreed, bouncing Spade gently in his arms. The laundry threat never failed.
"Good. 'Cause I can't even step outside without being eaten alive," you grumbled. "I told you the kiddy pool was a bad idea."
Remy chuckled sheepishly. "Remy didn't know the mosquitoes would love it so much," he admitted, guilt coloring his voice as he patted Spade's back, deliberately avoiding your pointed look.
The sizzle of bacon filled the kitchen as you worked at the stove. Remy wandered in, still cradling Spade, who had finally given up her campaign against his shirt in favor of contentedly gumming her pacifier.
"Smells good, cher," he said, peering over your shoulder. "Need Remy to set the table?" He shifted Spade to one arm, already reaching for plates with his free hand.
"If you can manage without putting our daughter down for two seconds," you teased, glancing back at him with a knowing smile.
Remy huffed indignantly. "Remy is perfectly capable of multitasking," he declared, though his grip on Spade remained secure as ever. As if to prove his point, he began one-handedly arranging plates and silverware on the table, adding a little flourish as he set down each item.
"Show-off," you muttered fondly, hiding your smile as you flipped the bacon.
"You love it," he shot back with a wink, his red-on-black eyes gleaming with mischief. Spade chose that moment to spit out her pacifier, which Remy caught with lightning-quick reflexes before it hit the floor. "Ha! See? Master of multitasking!"
"My hero," you deadpanned, but couldn't help laughing at his triumphant expression.
The morning sunlight had grown stronger now, streaming through the kitchen windows and catching the auburn highlights in Remy's hair. Spade reached up, trying to grab at the light playing across her father's face, making happy gurgling sounds.
"What you reaching for, petit?" Remy cooed, bouncing her gently. "You trying to catch the sun? Just like your papa, always reaching for things you shouldn't."
"Speaking of things we shouldn't reach for," you said, sliding the last of the bacon onto a plate, "I saw you trying to teach her how to shuffle cards yesterday."
Remy had the grace to look slightly embarrassed. "Was just showing her the basics, cher. Never too early to learn."
"She's a month old, Remy."
"And already showing great potential!" he insisted, grinning as Spade grabbed his finger and tried to stuff it in her mouth. "See? She's got quick hands!"
You shook your head, carrying plates to the table. "No daughter of mine is going to be running card scams before she can walk."
"Of course not," Remy agreed too quickly. "Maybe after she walks though..."
"Remy LeBeau!"
He laughed, dancing away from your mock-threatening spatula. "Remy's kidding! Mostly," he added under his breath, pressing a kiss to Spade's forehead as she yawned widely.
"I heard that," you warned, but couldn't keep the smile from your voice. "Now sit down before breakfast gets cold. And yes, you have to put her in her bouncer."
Remy pouted but carefully settled Spade into her bouncer next to the table, making sure she could still see both of you. "There you go, petit. Watch your old papa eat his breakfast before your maman makes him fix that mosquito trap."
"And the gutters," you added sweetly, passing him the coffee.
He nearly choked on his first sip. "The gutters? Remy didn't hear nothing about gutters!"
"Must have slipped my mind," you said innocently. "But while you're up there..."
"This is blackmail," he grumbled, but his eyes were twinkling as he watched you over the rim of his coffee cup.
"I prefer to think of it as creative motivation," you replied, reaching over to wipe a bit of drool from Spade's chin as she watched you both with wide eyes.
"You're lucky Remy loves you both so much," he said, his mock complaint softened by the genuine warmth in his voice.
"We know," you smiled, reaching across to squeeze his hand. "And we love you too, even if you do install unnecessary baby-proofing and create mosquito breeding grounds in the backyard."
"Remy's never going to live down that kiddie pool, is he?"
"Not a chance, mon cœur. Not a chance."
--- Two Years Later ---
"Spade Charlotte LeBeau, you get back here right now!"
Your toddler's delighted giggle echoed through the house as she zoomed around the corner, still in her pajamas, clutching one of Remy's playing cards in her tiny fist. Her dark hair bounced in messy curls around her face, and her red-on-black eyes – so like her father's – sparkled with mischief.
"Non!" she called back in a perfect imitation of Remy's accent, disappearing into the living room.
You shot your husband an accusatory look as he leaned against the doorframe, trying and failing to hide his proud grin. "This is your fault. She's picking up your accent AND your sticky fingers."
"Remy has no idea what you mean, cher," he said innocently, but the effect was ruined by his barely contained laughter. "Though you got to admit, her form is getting better."
"She's two, Remy. She shouldn't have any 'form' for stealing."
"Borrowing," he corrected automatically. "And did you see how smooth that lift was? Didn't even feel her take it from Remy's pocket."
A crash from the living room interrupted your response, followed by a small "Uh oh."
Both of you rushed in to find Spade standing amid a scatter of books from the fallen bookshelf, still clutching the Queen of Hearts. She looked up at you with wide eyes, lower lip trembling slightly.
"Accident?" she offered hopefully, in that same Cajun lilt that made it impossible to stay mad at her – a fact she had definitely figured out and used to her advantage.
Remy scooped her up before you could respond. "What's the rule about climbing, petit?"
"Only climb with Papa?" she tried, wrapping her arms around his neck and batting her eyelashes.
"The real rule," you prompted, trying to keep a stern face despite how adorable she looked.
Spade sighed dramatically – another trait she'd picked up from Remy. "No climbing furniture 'cause it's dangerous an' Maman will make Papa sleep on the couch."
"That's right," you nodded, then paused. "Wait, who taught you that last part?"
"Papa did!" she announced proudly, while Remy suddenly became very interested in straightening her pajama top.
You shook your head, bending to pick up the scattered books. "And what do we say when we make a mess, baby?"
"Sorry, Maman," she said, looking genuinely contrite now. Then she held out the playing card. "An' sorry I took Papa's card."
"Good girl," you smiled, kissing her forehead. "Now, how about breakfast?"
"Beignets!" Spade cheered, bouncing in Remy's arms.
"Non, petit," Remy chuckled. "Remember what happened last time? You got powdered sugar everywhere."
"But Papa," she whined, giving him the puppy-dog eyes that usually worked like a charm. "You said I was getting better at being sneaky quiet! I can be sneaky quiet with beignets!"
You raised an eyebrow at Remy. "Oh? Teaching our toddler to be 'sneaky quiet' now, are we?"
He had the decency to look sheepish. "Just... general life skills?"
"Down!" Spade demanded suddenly, squirming in his arms. The moment her feet touched the ground, she was off again, this time making a beeline for the kitchen.
"She's not..." Remy started.
"Going for the lower cabinet where you hide the beignet mix?" you finished. "The one you think I don't know about?"
A clatter from the kitchen confirmed your suspicions, followed by Spade's triumphant "Found it!"
"Now that," Remy said admiringly, "she definitely got from you, cher. Remy's not nearly that good at finding hiding spots."
"Keep telling yourself that, hun," you laughed, heading to the kitchen where your daughter was already trying to climb onto the counter. "Though we might need to work on her subtlety."
"Subtlety comes later," Remy assured you, catching Spade mid-climb. "Right after we teach her proper card handling and basic lock picking."
"Remy!"
"Kidding!" he protested, then whispered loudly to Spade, "We'll talk about it when you're three."
Spade giggled, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Promise, Papa?"
"Promise, petit. Now, how about we make Maman some proper breakfast to make up for the bookshelf incident?"
"Can we make it explode?" Spade asked hopefully.
"NO!" you both shouted, remembering all too well the "glowing" pancake incident from last month.
"Just a little boom?" she bargained, making her eyes go wide and innocent.
--- Ten Years Later ---
The first sign something was wrong came at breakfast. Spade sat hunched over her untouched cereal, her normally bright red-on-black eyes dulled with discomfort. At twelve, she was all gangly limbs and attitude, her dark curls pulled back in a messy ponytail.
"You feeling okay, petit?" Remy asked, concern evident in his voice as he watched her push the cereal around her bowl.
"M'fine," she mumbled, then winced and pressed a hand to her stomach. "Just... crampy."
You and Remy exchanged a knowing look. You'd been expecting this, had prepared for it, but somehow it still felt surreal that your baby was growing up so fast.
"Why don't you go lay down, sweet?" you suggested gently. "I'll bring you some pain medicine and a heating pad."
Spade nodded miserably and stood up – then froze, her face flushing red. "Maman," she whispered, panic in her voice. "I need... I think I..."
"Go on to the bathroom, baby. I'll be right there," you assured her, already heading for the cabinet where you'd stashed supplies months ago.
Remy looked slightly panicked himself. "Should Remy... do something?"
"You can start by not freaking out," you told him with a small smile. "Remember what we talked about?"
He nodded, taking a deep breath. "Oui. Normal, natural, nothing to be embarrassed about."
"Good man. Now go call the school and let them know she's staying home today."
As you headed to the bathroom with supplies, you heard Spade sniffling. "Maman? This really sucks."
"I know, baby," you said softly, letting yourself in. "But we've got this, okay? Let me show you..."
Twenty minutes later, Spade was curled up on the couch in fresh clothes, a heating pad pressed to her stomach, while Remy hovered nearby like an anxious mother hen.
"Papa, you're being weird," she grumbled, though there was affection in her voice.
"Remy's not being weird," he protested. "Remy's being... supportive."
"You've asked if I'm okay twelve times in ten minutes."
"Because Remy loves you, petit," he said, dropping a kiss on her forehead. "Even if you're growing up too fast."
She rolled her eyes but smiled – then suddenly yelped as the TV remote in her hand began to glow with a familiar magenta energy.
"Papa?" she asked, voice shaking as the glow intensified.
Remy moved fast, snatching the remote and absorbing the charge before it could explode. "Well," he said, trying to keep his voice light, "looks like you're getting more than one kind of change today, petit."
"Is... is that what your power feels like?" Spade asked, staring at her hands in wonder and fear. "Like everything's buzzing under your skin?"
"That's right," Remy nodded, sitting beside her. "Been wondering if you'd inherit that particular family trait."
You joined them on the couch, wrapping an arm around Spade's shoulders. "How are you feeling, baby? And don't say fine."
"Scared," she admitted quietly. "And excited. And my stomach still hurts. And..." She gestured helplessly at a decorative pillow, which had started to glow. Remy quickly grabbed that too.
"Hormones probably triggered it," you mused. "Logan mentioned that happens sometimes with mutant teenagers."
"Great," Spade groaned. "So not only do I have to deal with... this stuff, but now I might blow things up when I get cranky?"
"Just like your papa," you teased, trying to lighten the mood.
"Hey!" Remy protested. "Remy has excellent control... most of the time."
Spade giggled, then winced and curled tighter around the heating pad. "Can we just... watch movies today? And maybe Papa can teach me how to not explode things?"
"'Course, petit," Remy said softly. "Though maybe we start with something less explosive than the remote, non? Playing cards are made to handle a charge better."
"Is that why you always have them?" she asked, perking up slightly despite her discomfort.
"Partly," he admitted. "Also 'cause they look cool when Remy throws them."
"Can I learn that too?"
"Let's master 'not blowing up the furniture' first," you suggested firmly.
"Maman's right," Remy agreed. "Besides, you need to rest today. Movie first, mutation training later."
Spade nodded, then suddenly looked mortified. "Oh god, do I have to tell people at school about... either thing?"
"Only if you want to, baby," you assured her. "Though we should probably let Uncle Logan know about your powers manifesting. He'll want to start training you."
"Can we not call him Uncle Logan anymore?" Spade groaned. "I'm not a little kid."
"You'll always be Remy's petit," he said, ruffling her hair and expertly dodging her swat.
"Papa!" she protested, but she was smiling. Then she looked down at her hands again, watching the faint energy dance across her fingertips. "Will... will it always feel like this?"
"Non," Remy assured her. "You'll learn to control it. Channel it. Make it part of you instead of fighting it. And your maman and papa will be here every step of the way."
"Promise?"
"Promise, petit. Now, what movie you want to watch while Remy teaches you the basics of energy manipulation?"
"Something with explosions?" she asked hopefully.
You and Remy shared a look over her head – equal parts exasperation and love.
--- Five Years Later ---
You knew something was off when Spade started wearing long sleeves in summer. At seventeen, she'd grown into her powers beautifully, the same casual grace with kinetic energy that Remy possessed. But lately, she'd been jumpy, secretive – and definitely not charging anything she touched, which was unusual for a girl who typically left a trail of glowing objects in her wake.
The truth came out on a humid Tuesday evening, when Remy came home early from a mission.
"Petit?" he called out, heading upstairs. "Remy brought those macarons you like from that place in–"
He stopped dead in Spade's doorway. Your daughter was hastily pulling on a hoodie, but not before both of you caught sight of the suppression collar around her neck. The kind sold in sketchy places to mutants who wanted to "pass" as human.
The box of macarons hit the floor.
"Papa!" Spade yelped, yanking the hood up. "You're supposed to be in Paris until tomorrow!"
"And you're supposed to be at study group," you said from behind Remy, making her jump. "Want to explain the collar, baby?"
Spade's eyes darted between you both, then to her window, clearly calculating if she could make the jump. A habit she'd definitely picked up from Remy.
"Don't even think about it," you warned. "Sit."
She sat on her bed, pulling her knees up to her chest. "It's not what you think."
"Non?" Remy's voice was dangerously quiet. "Because what Remy thinks is his daughter is ashamed of being a mutant."
"I'm not!" Spade protested, eyes filling with tears. "I just... I wanted..."
"To be normal?" you asked softly, sitting beside her while Remy paced the room, playing cards flickering with agitated energy between his fingers.
"To go on a date without setting anything on fire!" she burst out. "To hold hands without worrying about blowing someone up! To be able to... to kiss someone without..."
The cards in Remy's hands stopped moving. "Kiss someone?"
Spade went pale. "I mean... hypothetically..."
"Spade Charlotte LeBeau," you said firmly. "The whole truth. Now."
She took a shuddering breath. "His name is Alex. He's in my AP Chemistry class. We've been dating for three months and he doesn't know I'm a mutant and I really, really like him and please don't explode anything, Papa!"
The last part came out in a rush as the cards in Remy's hands began to glow ominously.
"Three months?" Remy's accent got thicker with emotion. "You've been hiding this for three months?"
"Remy," you warned, seeing the hurt in your daughter's eyes. "Let her explain."
"I wanted to tell you," Spade whispered, fingers twisting in her sleeves. "But I was scared. Not of you!" she added quickly. "Of... of messing it up. His parents are kind of... they don't like mutants. And Alex isn't like that, he's different, but I just wanted a chance to show him who I am before he found out what I am."
"You are not a what, petit," Remy said fiercely, the glow fading from his cards as he knelt in front of her. "You are a who. A beautiful, powerful, amazing who. And anyone who can't see that..."
"Isn't worth hiding yourself for," you finished gently.
"But what if he is?" Spade's voice cracked. "Worth it, I mean. He's smart and funny and he doesn't make stupid jokes about the school being full of freaks like the other kids do. He stood up for Jamie last week when someone was bullying him about his scales. He doesn't even know I go there, but he stood up anyway."
You and Remy exchanged a look. You remembered being young, remembered how hard it was to bridge the gap between mutant and human worlds.
"Take off the collar, petit," Remy said finally.
"Papa..."
"Take it off," he repeated, gentler this time. "If this boy is worth your time, he's worth your trust. And if he breaks that trust..." The cards flickered again.
"You will not threaten a teenager," you told him firmly, then turned to Spade. "But your father's right about the collar, baby. It's dangerous, and it's not healthy – physically or emotionally."
Spade's hands shook as she unclasped the collar, her natural energy immediately sparking at her fingertips. "I don't know how to tell him."
"Start with the truth," you suggested. "And maybe somewhere without too many breakable objects."
"And if he runs?" she asked in a small voice.
Remy sat beside her, pulling her into a hug. "Then he's not the one, petit. But you don't know until you try. Just... next time? Tell Remy before you start dating the normie boy? So Remy can do a proper background check?"
"Papa!"
"What? It's what any responsible father would do!"
"You are not running a background check on my boyfriend!"
"Too late," you muttered, making them both turn to stare at you. "What? You think your father's the only one who knows how to do research? He's got a B+ average, one speeding ticket, volunteers at the animal shelter, and his Instagram is full of science puns and pictures of his little sister's soccer games."
Spade groaned and flopped back on her bed. "I hate this family."
"Non, you don't," Remy grinned, ruffling her hair. "Now, about those macarons Remy dropped..."
"Are they stress-eating macarons?" Spade asked hopefully.
"They are now," you agreed. "And while we eat, you can tell us more about this boy. Like why you didn't mention that he's in your AP Chem study group – the one you're supposedly at right now?"
Spade's eyes widened. "How did you..."
"Parent knowledge," you and Remy said in unison.
---Three months later---
The Greene family's dining room was impeccably decorated, all crystal glasses and polished silver that made you grateful for all those etiquette lessons Storm had insisted on. Spade sat beside Alex, wearing her favorite dark purple dress, her power carefully controlled despite her obvious nerves. Remy, for once, had traded his usual trench coat for a proper blazer, though you'd caught him shuffling cards in his pocket on the drive over.
"So," Mrs. Greene said, cutting her chicken with precise movements, "you teach at that... special school?"
"Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters," you confirmed, noting how she avoided saying the name. "Yes, we both do."
"And that's where Spade attends?" Mr. Greene's tone was carefully neutral, but his grip on his fork was too tight.
Alex shifted uncomfortably. He'd been wonderful when Spade had told him about her powers, had even thought they were cool, but this dinner had been his idea – wanting to do things "properly." Now, watching his parents' barely concealed disdain, you could see him regretting it.
"Best education a parent could ask for," Remy said smoothly, his accent deliberately softened. "Top test scores in the state."
"I'm sure," Mrs. Greene murmured, then added with false brightness, "Though it must be... challenging, dealing with all those special needs children."
Spade's glass began to glow faintly. Without missing a beat, Remy reached over and touched it, absorbing the charge.
"Actually," you said pleasantly, "our students are quite gifted. Spade's in line for early admission to NYU's biochemistry program."
"Really?" Mr. Greene looked surprised, as if he couldn't quite reconcile this with his preconceptions. "That's... impressive."
"Our Spade's always been remarkable," Remy said proudly, then added with deliberate casualness, "Gets it from both sides of the family."
The temperature in the room seemed to drop several degrees as understanding dawned on the Greenes' faces.
"Both sides?" Mrs. Greene's voice had gone up an octave. "You mean you're all...?"
"Mutants?" Spade finished quietly, lifting her chin with a defiance that was pure Remy. "Yes. We are."
"Alex!" his mother hissed. "You didn't tell us..."
"Because it doesn't matter, Mom," Alex said firmly, reaching for Spade's hand under the table. "Spade's brilliant and kind and amazing, and her being a mutant is just another part of who she is."
"Doesn't matter?" Mr. Greene's fork clattered to his plate. "These people are dangerous! They're–"
"Very capable of hearing you," you interrupted coolly. "And 'these people' include your son's girlfriend and her parents, who are sitting right here."
"How do we know she hasn't... done something to him?" Mrs. Greene demanded, standing abruptly. "Used some kind of mind control or–"
"Maman's not a telepath," Spade said, her voice shaking slightly but determined. "And neither am I. I can charge objects with kinetic energy, like my father. That's all."
"That's all?" Mr. Greene laughed harshly. "You mean you can make things explode? And we're supposed to be comfortable with you dating our son?"
"More comfortable than Remy is with his daughter dating someone whose parents think she's a monster," Remy said quietly, but there was steel beneath the silk of his voice.
"Mom, Dad, please," Alex pleaded. "Just give them a chance. Get to know them. Spade's family is amazing – they've been nothing but welcoming to me."
"Of course they have," Mrs. Greene snapped. "They're probably thrilled their daughter managed to snare a normal boy–"
The wine glass in Remy's hand shattered.
Everyone froze. Slowly, deliberately, Remy uncurled his fingers, letting the charged fragments fall harmlessly to the tablecloth.
"Remy suggests," he said softly, his accent thick with controlled anger, "that you think very carefully about your next words regarding his daughter."
"Are you threatening us?" Mr. Greene stood, reaching for his phone. "In our own home?"
"Non," Remy smiled, but it wasn't a pleasant expression. "Remy's just making sure we understand each other. Because Remy's daughter? She's been crying herself to sleep worrying about making a good impression tonight. She pressed her best dress and practiced controlling her powers for hours because she wanted you to see her as a person first. But clearly," he gestured to the ruined tablecloth, "Remy wasted money on this nice jacket."
"I think," you said, standing and placing a calming hand on Remy's shoulder, "we should go."
"Wait!" Alex stood too. "I'm coming with you."
"Alex, sit down!" his mother ordered.
"No." He moved to stand beside Spade, who was fighting back tears. "I'm seventeen, I can make my own choices. And I choose not to stay here and listen to you insult the girl I love and her family."
The word 'love' hung in the air. Spade's eyes widened, and even Remy's anger faltered for a moment.
"If you walk out that door with them," Mr. Greene warned, "don't bother coming back tonight."
"Fine," Alex said, his voice steady despite his pale face. "I'll stay at Connor's. At least his parents judge people by who they are, not what they are."
You gathered your things in tense silence, Remy's hand protectively on Spade's shoulder. At the door, Mrs. Greene made one last attempt.
"Alex, please. We're just trying to protect you."
"From what?" he asked tiredly. "From Spade, who helps me with calculus and volunteers at the shelter with me? From her mom, who makes sure I eat properly when I'm studying late? From her dad, who's been teaching me to change my own oil so I don't get ripped off at mechanics?" He shook his head. "The only thing I need protection from is this kind of prejudice."
You and Remy shared a look as you walked out with the teens in front. You might have had your opinions at first but you definitely liked Alex now.

Hey Lola! Can I get these for Gabriel? I’d like to know more about him :3
🎶 - How do they sound? Describe their voice
💢 - How do they handle being annoyed?
🥘 - Favourite food?
🌹 - Do they have a signature scent? Perfume, shampoo or alike? 
Hi Alex!
Thanks for asking! I'm so happy to talk about Gabs especially since now he's back in PH.
🎶 - How do they sound? Describe their voice
Gabriel actually has the best voice out of all his siblings. It’s a lower baritone with a slight hoarse. He loves to hum and knows really well he’s good at it.
💢 - How do they handle being annoyed?
It really depends on a situation. In official settings the worst you’ll get is him storming out of a room (which is still unacceptable for a Royal). However in informal situations he will certainly bit back. However if he gets to angry he will try to get some time to himself to calm down. All of the Drazels are quite spirited. 
🥘 - Favourite food?
Gabriel loves steaks. Medium rare are the best in his opinion. They were quite a common food at the Drazel table about which he didn’t complain.
🌹 - Do they have a signature scent? Perfume, shampoo or alike? 
Gabs is a Royal so obviously he uses some fancier toiletries, but he still likes to keep them simple and is probably the only one who doesn’t overly complain when Drazels are living incognito in Clover. He chooses something refreshing.
In a subtle way his scent could remind someone of the woods, maybe it’s connected to his magic.

Hihi I'm new here! I really like your headcanons. Would it be alright if I could ask headcanons for the bachelors and how their romantic relationship with a farmer that already has a kid from a different relationship progress?
Like, one day a kid just randomly shows up at the farmer's doorstep with a social worker and farmer had to explain that their ex couldn't keep the child anymore, and the kid is also super anxious about moving in with them or something.
I'm really sorry- it was a scenario I've seen dabbled into once and I'm just very curious as to what others think of it too aha.
If this ask is not your cup of tea, feel free to disregard it. Have a great day op 🙏✨
Hellooooo!
Sorry for the delay, dear anon. This headcanon just turned out bigger than I planned 😅 Hope I understood your question correctly. Thank you very much for the ask, and enjoy! 🫰💕
_________________________________________
SDV bachelors x Farmer, that already has a kid from a different relationship:
Shane:
Oh, man. This is all very awkward...
Shane knew about Farmer's ex, the reason for the breakup and the fact that the child was in the care of their ex in Zuzu City.
Farmer visited their child almost every week, calling and writing letters, but Shane himself was not particularly involved, not knowing how to approach the little one.
Naturally, when the kid came to visit the farm, the chicken man would try to make the kid feel comfortable, but considering everything they'd been through, even here it was pretty awkward.
On the plus side, they was the same age as Jas, and the kids had become fast friends in a short time.
Farmer encouraged their spouse's attempts at friendship with their kid, but again, things were still pretty awkward.
When the Farmer's child arrived with a social worker some time later, Shane noticed how much the little one resembled him in his yought - confused, scared, resentful of everyone and tired of everything. Their familiar world where both parents were together was gone forever.
Later, Shane was able to explain how he'd been in a similar situation, how he'd almost lost because of the mistakes he'd made trying to cope with pain.
The kid quickly found common ground with him. Especially after they confessed that they liked chickens!
Shane doesn't claim to be a father, as the kid is pretty mature and understands on their own.
But he will treat them with the same care and responsibility as he does Jas.
They are all kinda weird family, but Shane loves them all and still can't believe how lucky he is.
Sam:
It's quite a tricky situation, but thanks to his friendliness and personality, Sam is great with kids.
When Farmer finally introduced their kid to Sam, the young guitarist immediately went into cool brother/uncle mode.
The kid was worried, but Sam began to slowly gain their trust by asking about their interest in comics or other hobbies.
It makes him happy that the kid can forget about problem and concerns at least for now, because children should be happy and play while they have their childhood.
Sam knows that Farmer broke up with their ex more or less calmly, without scandal or drama, but he knows, like Farmer, it was still hard for the kid.
He's glad that he and Farmer are trying their best to be in theirs life.
The kid's upset look and the presence of the social worker took Sam by surprise.
While the social worker was talking to Farmer, Sam offered the anxious kid something to eat. Or some space, if they still feel uncomfortable.
After learning the reason for the visit and the fact that the kid will now live on the farm, Sam gently asks his partner how he should handle this. He wants to cheer the kid up, but he also doesn't want to make them more anxious.
Fortunately, Vincent and the kid get along quickly, which pleases both Farmer and Sam. Now, though, they need to keep an eye on the kids, or they'll both get into more trouble.
Jodi and Kent also do everything they can to make Farmer's kid feel comfortable (Jodi now spoils them with tasty baked goods).
Farmer can't help but be joyful with how hard Sam tries for them and their kid and his family to keep everyone happy.
Alex:
Farmer was telling Alex about their loser ex, who had decided to trade Farmer and their child for a some stranger. What a shameless cheater...
Farmer visited their kid almost every week, but Alex was only able to go with them a few times.
At the sight of their ex, the athlete was so itching to break their nose. But he tried to keep his temper in front of the kid.
The child turns out to be a kind young one, though a bit shy and reserved. Alex thanks Yoba that they are more like the Farmer in looks and personality than the other parent.
Despite the awkward pause at first, the kid seems to like Alex. Of course, he's cool, kind, and gives them ice cream! Alex's trips with Farmer became more frequent and his friendship with Farmer's little kid grew stronger.
Some time later, when a confused Alex let the stranger into the house, he was shocked to find Farmer's kid standing behind him. They looked... so sad.
The social worker announced that the ex had decided to relinquish parental rights and the child had been brought here.
The poor kid was quieter than a mouse, but Alex was as friendly as possible and tried to cheer him up.
In the back of his mind, though, he felt a wild rage, because he could hear that the reason the ex had refused to give up their own child was because their new partner didn't want to babysit them.
Alex knows more than anyone what it's like when one parent is such a dirtbag. But right now he doesn't care about losers, he's got Farmer and their kid.
Getting the kid used to the new environment was very difficult, but Alex helped them get to know the local children.
Evelyn accepted the kid as her own great-grandchild, remembering to feed them delicious baked goods. George was a bit stingy with his emotions, but he also accepted them as his own.
Alex will not leave them in trouble and will help them to cope with all the difficulties. Now the Farmer and their child are his family.
Sebastian:
Sebastian feels awkward and doesn't know what to do. Help.
He and the Farmer's child were so similar in personality when they met - silent, shy and withdrawn.
Sebastian realises that Farmer's child is having a hard time with the fact that their parents are divorced. But emo doesn't know how to start a conversation.
So when Farmer left Sebby and their kid alone for half an hour, there was an awkward silence for the first 5 minutes.
The kid was already getting bored. Sebastian decided to give it a try after all.
"Do you like frogs?" Judging by the spark in the kid's eyes, they had already found at least one topic of interest to both of them.
Farmer smiles when they returned to see the two of them chatting about different amphibians.
A few such encounters and Sebastian had become a cool uncle to them.
Sebastian was hurt to hear that Farmer's ex had given up their parental rights, when Farmer's kid had already visited them, with a social worker.
He will leave the kid alone, as they definitely need some time alone and to collect their thoughts.
Yet, Sebby and the Farmer are always there to cheer up the kid.
On a rainy day, he will show the baby the best place to find frogs.
Sebastian is good at supporting both his partner and their baby.
It can be awkward at times, but Sebby loves them all, so it will be okay.
Harvey:
Given Harvey's profession, he's pretty adept at finding common ground with anxious children.
So when Farmer first introduced Harvey to their child from their first marriage, the local Pelican Town doctor already knew how to behave.
He's glad that despite the divorce, Farmer is trying their best to support their kid, as stress can take a big toll on not only their mental health, but their physical health as well.
Even more so, it's not the child's fault that fate has worked out this way and their parents live in completely different places.
Of course, Harvey is not as "cool" as other bachelors, but he manages to interest the child in his model aeroplanes.
Maybe if they like to read, the doctor will give them something interesting to read (something that isn't a medical encyclopedia).
Harvey almost cried when the kid called him uncle and cool adult.
And all was going smoothly until a social worker knocked on the door of the farmhouse.
After explaining that the other parent, Farmer's ex, could no longer financially support the child, they placed the child in their care.
Harvey is worried about them, because all the fear of moving, new surroundings, and separated parents can have a very negative effect on poor kid.
Harvey will try to be there to help them and Farmer.
Maybe insist on therapy for the kid. Still, it could use some professional help.
Fortunately, Harvey knows what to do and he won't let anyone or anything upset Farmer and their kid. Doctor's words!
Elliott:
Elliott still can't believe that Farmer's ex turned out to be such a coward and unworthy person! Cheating on Farmer. when they already had a child together!
Of course, now Farmer is with him, and yes, it's not worth spending all the nerves on the past, but it's just that the writer is outraged to the core.
Also outraged that the ex just abandoned their child like that, saying they "don't have time for them now." Unbelievable!
Poor child... As much as the Farmers tried to comfort their own kud, all of these events took a heavy toll on them. And Elliott decided it was his duty to help the kid and Farmer, the love of his life.
His first attempts, though, end awkwardly, as Elliott doesn't know where to start. And should he start so immediately? Maybe they need some alone time on the contrary?
He decided to pick up a couple of books to help (mostly children's books, and a couple of books about how to communicate with children/teens).
The writer was lucky that the kid loves books!
There was even a moment when the kid felt comfortable around Elliott and asked them to help make their own little book. Elliott is more than happy to help them.
He also won't forget to praise the Farmer, because it was through their efforts and love that their child didn't fall victim to the neglect of the other parent. It's a shame that, coincidentally, the kid didn't arrive sooner.
Elliott will have a bit of a hard time, but he will do a great job in the role of carer for the Farmer and their kid, accepting them as his own child.
