Payneland Doctor Who AU (The God Complex)
This is the last straw, Edwin knows. Break Charles’ faith to save his life.
Break Charles to save his life.
Charles will never stay with Edwin after this. Edwin wouldn’t ever ask it of him.
“Edwin,” Charles says, and even after all of this, he still believes. The Minotaur is at the door and yet he still believes, because he grits his teeth and says, “It’s changing my thoughts. It wants me to praise it. But I won’t- I can’t-”
Charles can’t believe. It is the one thing in the universe that could kill him, because the Minotaur would feast on his faith forever, and it would become a living hell, and Edwin cannot allow that.
Edwin would rather be hated by Charles forever than be the cause of his suffering.
Edwin kneels down in front of Charles. In front of the belt on the ground. In front of Charles’ blood staining his hands, because he let Charles end up under the hands of his father again, and he will never forgive himself for it. Edwin will carry the weight of Charles’ pain on his shoulders until the heat death of the universe. “I can’t save you from this,” Edwin says, voice simple, voice matter-of-fact, “I can’t save you from your father, or from the Minotaur. I can’t save you from anything.”

So, baby girl, good luck taking care of yourself
But in the end, if I bend under the weight that they gave me
Then this heart would break and fall as twice as far
We all know how it goes
The more it hurts, the less it shows
But I still feel like they all know
And that's why I could never go back home

So now that Jake tonowari and Quaritch all have joint custody over spider tonowari gets the weekends I Imagine Jake gets Monday Tuesday and Wednesday Quaritch gets Thursday and Friday
Dose this also mean Ronal z dog (is that his name) and Neytiri are spider co moms like they all sure custody over spider and the custody battle was just Ronal sitting them down and explaining how to mother spider or something like that
ok so in my mind this is how it works with 3 way/party custody (this is based off my experience in a messy family with messy custody agreements).
party A - Ronal and Tonowari - weekends
party B - Neytiri and Jake - 2 weeks
party C - Quaritch and the Recom unit - corresponding 2 weeks to party B
~bonus information cause I'm a *divorce kid* and this is literally my specialty~
this was my custody agreement for like 3 years and the loops holes were insane, and kinda funny.
party B and C can divvy up their weeks so they get 4 weeks back to back (ex. party B would take the last 2 and first 2 weeks of a month back to back)
party A gets prioritized vacations, holidays, and family events.
party A can also trade 2 consecutive weekends for either party B or C's corresponding week.
I think you could rule Ronal/Tonowari as the primary guardians due to spider taking their family and parental name, but even if you couldn't due to having the lowest percentage of parenting time, it could become a custody expectation set by party A that the other 2 parties go through some sort of parenting classes and that certain needs/check in's are met.
so yeah, Ronal probably made the threat that her baby be treated right or she'd be putting them all through mandated parenting classes and home checks.
