about demon au , are they more into child souls or older ones ?!

The wording --- but I get what you mean!

No, typically they don't approach the young one's souls. The former Lord of Envy absolutely forbid it and truthfully, it's frown upon as there's no merit or worth to it. There's no sin to feast upon in there, no desire, no corruption or temptation. They stick to older ones.

Maybe they'd need to collect them for some greater purpose (like in ut) but it wouldn't involve consumming them anyway.

That's how Frisk manages to get by actually (they can get killed but their soul remains contract free, etc)

It is no secret to anyone who knows him that Alastair Carstairs is an exceptional cook. Armed with the knowledge passed down from his mother and Risa, he felt it was his duty to keep the Persian traditions alive in their family, and the only way he felt comfortable doing it was through cooking. It was his escape when the piano keys felt slimy and sticky under his fingertips, and when his thumb and index fingers slowly became more and more smudged with ink stains from the mundane newspapers. Cordelia was the taste tester every time, no matter how burnt or salty or under seasoned his food was. He could trust her to give him an honest critique—and she always did, without preamble.       ‘Dadash, did you empty the entire Dead Sea into this? My tongue is burning.’       ‘Oh, this is better than last time! Just needs more chilli, it’s a bit on the mild side.’       ‘Alastair, this is extremely chewy. It’s meant to be softer, no?’       Though he would roll his eyes and pretend to be offended by every one of his sister’s comments, Alastair was glad for it all. It was their little pocket of solidarity in an otherwise distant relationship. Alastair’s own doing, of course, but he felt it necessary at the time.       He was four years old when he first showed an interest, according to Sona. By eleven, Alastair was comfortable enough to cook a couple of simple dishes without any help. By fifteen, he was a self-proclaimed master. Yes, he made mistakes sometimes—as all good cooks do—but he knew his way around a kitchen, just as Cordelia knew her way around Cortana. Naturally it was something he kept to himself: if he had disclosed to any of the boys who bullied him at the Shadowhunter Academy that he, a male, loved and knew how to cook, and was taught how to by the women in his life, it would have given them yet another few reasons to belittle and assault him.       Being his father’s son and a boy with darker skin was already too many reasons. So Alastair kept his passion quiet, known only to his mother, his sister, and Risa. He’s sure Elias never knew, for if he had, Alastair is certain he would have put a stop to it somehow. All it took was one remark to have Alastair give up and push it down. His love for piano and singing, for instance.       But Alastair and Cordelia made it a regular occurrence to take over the kitchen and get under Risa’s feet, in her words. He cherishes those memories, where flour would coat the front of his waistcoat and parts of Cordelia’s hair, and the fragrant aroma of cinnamon, cardamom and clove would fill the entire room alongside their laughter. They were just some of the good things he held onto whilst at the Academy.       But the Academy days are no more, and Elias’s domineering presence has fizzled out through fire and ash. Alastair is free to do whatever he wants to do and be whoever he wants to be, and cooking is only a part of it.

ZACHARY ARASH HEADCANONS

When he's a child, he thinks that Thomas is the Coolest Person Ever(tm). He's always asking for Thomas and views him as an amazing partner in crime who will help him pull "pranks" on Dadash by hiding under a bed with him and having snowball fights against him. Thomas is his role model and his idol.

He grows up so close with Thomas and Alastair that he thinks they're his fathers until he's like, 4. They go over about twice a week to spend time with Zachary, Sona, and Risa.

Sometimes Matthew and Oscar also will appear, or James and Cordelia. They'll all play with him and he'll be exceedingly amused by Oscar.

He really enjoys when Cordelia reads aloud to him. It's one of the activities that makes him feel calmest all throughout his life. When he's a teenager, he still enjoys her reading to him... but he keeps it a secret from his peers.

When Zachary is a bit older, Cordelia retires and gives him Cortana. He's about 17 by this point and is eager to go on his own adventures with the blade. It readily accepts him as its new bearer.

Because Zachary was so close with his mom, his siblings, and their partners, Zachary grew up never wanting for love. This makes him a kind of happy-go-lucky guy, and he's filled with genuine joy and very few worries.

Alastair secretly loves that for him.

But it's also kind of bad, because he's very spoiled and has literally never wanted for anything in his life. He's flawed! He's human! It's okay!

When he's 18ish, he begins having secret rendezvous with Christine Iris Fairchild. They fall madly in love.

He asks for permission to court her. Alastair and Matthew fight over having to be brother-in-laws but are secretly so happy for them.

Zachary also grows up really close with James and Cordelia's kids because they're so close in age to them. He always pulls the "I'm your uncle" card to get away with things when he was little, but eventually they got sick of it (because they were his friends) and told him to get off his high horse

When Zachary is older, he visits Thomas and Alastair when they move away to Paris post-retirement. Even though he lives far away, he ensures that he'll make the trek 2-3 times per year.

DADASH ft. EPI - KOMENDANT SAATI

[inlovewithquotes]

"I have my own weaknesses, as you well know."

"Love is not a weakness, Alastair dadash," she said, and for a moment she saw Alastair hesitate at the use of the Persian word.

Then his mouth tightened. The shadows under his eyes looked like bruises; she wondered where he had been, to return so late at night.

"Isn't it?" he said, turning to leave the room. "Don't give your heart to James Herondale, Cordelia. He is in love with Grace Blackthorn and he always will be."

[morningfears]

Ok going off of the single dad/best friend!ash thing. Ash keeps his heart guarded until Baby Irwin is in kindergarten and he’s in the studio when he breaks his arm at recess (like boys do- he probably jumped off the play structure; something ash has told him a million times not to do) but when ash gets to the school, the nurse tells him reader has already picked him up so he walks into the er to find his son with reader trying to keep him calm and he realizes then that he wants their family

I’m fucking emo, wow. Okay. Again, a bit long. Someone stop me.

Yes! Like, I can see him getting the call and obviously, he’s freaking the fuck out. Because that’s his little boy and he never wants him to get hurt. So, he gets to the school and he’s, like, half hysterical. But they tell him that he’s already at the ER, that she came and got him (because Reader’s also one of his emergency contacts and has permission to take him off school grounds) and he’s partially thankful that she was the one to take him and partially even more terrified because what if his son is mad that he wasn’t the one to get him?

But he gets to the ER and he finds them in the waiting room, his arm in a sling and her holding him in her lap. She’s reading to him (she actually has a few kids around her because they all sorta stopped crying when she started reading and doing the voices and the parents are so thankful and she’s just chill about it) and Ash just kinda sits down without either of them noticing and when the book is over and the kids are kinda back with their own parents, Ash gets her attention. And she apologizes for taking him, “I was closer to the school. I figured we’d be here a while, anyway, and wanted to get him here as quickly as possible.” And Ash, who is feeling his heart pounding in his chest in a way that he hasn’t in ages, waves her off. He tells her that it’s fine, that he’s glad she brought him there and that she kept him calm.

And this is the moment Ashton dreaded because they gave Baby Irwin something for pain and he’s really clingy and pouty. When they get ready to put the cast on, she has to put him down and he’s pouting and crying that he doesn’t want his mom to leave and Ash is freaking out but she doesn’t mention it, doesn’t even look mildly surprised (although she feels it on the inside) and just holds him after the doctor says it’s alright while he gets his cast on. And the longer Ash watches her with him, the longer he contemplates it, he realizes that he wants her to be Baby Irwin’s mother. He wants them to be a family. He wants them to have children of their own and to grow together and he realizes that he can’t see a future without her in it anymore.

for the fics - could you write a short snippet of the carstairs siblings just being sibling ya know?

how about them taking little zachary on a picnic and he will not stop trying to eat the pretty flowers or something?

1906

"He's quite lively," Cordelia laughed as she watched Zachary scoot across the grass of St James' park. He pulled it up handful-by-handful in small tufts, offering it to Cordelia as though unformed grass and occasional weeds were a gift fit for a queen. She took them, because if she rejected them...

"He's a little hellion, is what he is," Alastair said, sputtering as Zachary threw grass at his face. "Do remind me why he is so kind to you while he chucks that wretched stuff at me, handful by handful. Have I committed some perceived offense?"

Cordelia whacked her older brother lightly. "I think he is simply expressing his affection for each of us differently."

"You, the queen," Alastair said grumpily, but there was humor behind his tone. "Me, the servant forced to collect and store grass for him."

"Well, he seems to have moved onto flowers now," Cordelia said. "Perhaps you could weave yourself a crown, as you did for me when we were children? No one could argue that you were anything but regal then."

Alastair glared at her pointedly. "I am not wearing a crown made from daffodils, Layla. And even if I were..." He trailed off.

Cordelia turned toward Zachary, following Alastair's gaze. He did not seem inclined to chuck the blooms unceremoniously at Alastair; instead, he stuffed three daffodils into his mouth, chewing thoughtfully.

"Zachary," Alastair chided in a sugar-sweet voice that Cordelia privately planned to mock later. "Do not eat the flowers. They cannot taste good."

"Good," Zachary repeated. "Eat."

"What makes them good?" Cordelia asked, and Alastair glared daggers at her.

"Yum," Zachary said, and Alastair reached out and removed the flowers from his brother's mouth.

"Suppose I take your 'yum' argument as a given," Alastair said, waving the flowers toward Zachary. "These still are not food. They're likely toxic. Bad for the digestion. Not, as you say, good."

Zachary giggled and picked another flower, which Alastair reached out and took.

"I have rather a better idea," Alastair said. "Pick these and hand them off to me kindly, and I will make you a flower-crown. Would you like a flower-crown?"

Cordelia turned to Zachary. "Dadash makes the best flower crowns," she told him. "You ought to seriously consider his offer."

She was sure that Zachary did not understand a great deal of their conversation, but he smiled. "Yes," he said. "Flower crown. Like a hat."

Alastair sighed. "Like a hat," he agreed. "Of course, he thinks that."

And, as Zachary giggled again and threw himself into Cordelia's skirts, Alastair began to weave.

dad!ash is so fuckin valid

[drunkonimagination]

Do you think Thomastair will have kids? ❤️

hiii 💖 uhhh, very good question.

well....i think they will eventually have kids, but at the same time i can totally see them being the cool and funny uncles to their friends' children and deciding not to adopt, especially since they already have zachary, who, despite not actually living with them, definitely spends quite a lot time with his brother and thomas <3 i bet they go to cirenworth every other day and zachary absolutely adores his dadash and tom and wants to stay with them all the time when they go visit (imagine him being super exciting everytime they are supposed to come, like he wakes up super early and starts jumping on his mum's bed screaming at the top of his lungs 'dadash and tom are coming today !!!! i can't wait !!!!!! maman wake up !!!!!!!!' and sona loves his baby too much to complain also how could she ever blame him when thomas is a literal angel on this earth who treats her beautiful son like the most precious thing in the world, is the man even real-)

anyway

it's basically canon that they both dote on kids and we can totally see it in the christmas party scene(s) aka the scenes that altered my brain chemistry forever so no way that among their friends' children they won't become everyone's favorite uncles....they're both kind, funny, caring, affectionate....kids just adore them and want to play with them all the time. so why not adopting kids themselves once zachary is a bit older and they're, idk, around their 30s? i absolutely love this scenario as well *sobs* and i think they would make such good parents 😭

but yesss, i cherish both the perspectives....adopting kids at some point and taking care of their own children too or just looking after zachary and being constantly adored by their friends' kids 🥺

[morningfears]

Imagine cooking Sunday dinners with singledad best friend ash because my heart is weak

Oh my god. (Lowkey want to make this friends to lovers.) Also, under a read more because I suck and went overboard. 🙃

So. Single Dad/Best Friend!Ash got married and had kids young. He was madly in love and so was she and they really wanted to get started on their life together immediately because they both had plans to have a ton of kids and just be really happy. But once they actually got married and had Baby Irwin, she realized just how much that would be. She realized how hard it would be and how many sacrifices she was going to have to make that she wasn’t ready for. So, she filed for divorce and left the baby with Ash because he was the one that was head over heels for their little boy.

Obviously, he had the boys to call on but they weren’t much help. And his family helped as much as they could from home (his mom even came to stay for a bit) but the only person that was constantly in his life and in his little boy’s life was his best friend. She’d been there through it all, seen him at his best and at his worst. She was his little boy’s favorite person (other than him, of course) and Ash is so thankful to have her by his side because he wouldn’t know what to do without her.

And to have some sort of sense of normalcy, they’ve established a routine. She babysits on nights that he has to work late and she doesn’t. They go to the park on Saturdays, and then on Sundays, they all make dinner together and watch a movie. It’s very domestic but they don’t really think much of it because it was just to establish a routine, right? (That doesn’t stop the boys from asking them about it, separately, of course. Because everyone ships it and wants them to be together and be the perfect little family that they know they could be.)

But, yes. Sundays are family days. Ash takes care of all the chopping (he doesn’t want her to hurt herself and his son is too young) and setting the table while she and Baby Irwin wash vegetables, stir sauces, put things in pots, etc. And they all move seamlessly around one another in the kitchen. Baby Irwin is still small (around two or three) so he can’t really do a lot but he loves to think he’s helping. So, she’ll let him put something on a plate or wash things and he always has his dad’s attention. If he’s doing something and he calls for his dad, Ash looks over immediately and cheers his boy on as he helps wash a cucumber or some lettuce.

And Ash loves to sneak peeks at the two of them while they’re cooking. She usually has his son on her hip or sitting on the counter beside where she’s working, and she’s so patient with him. She teaches him carefully but she lets him be as independent as he can manage (something Ash isn’t great at because that’s his baby, he wants to take care of him but he appreciates her doing it because he knows it has to be done). And it melts his heart seeing them both giggle when they’re putting things on plates or in bowls. He also loves to see her listen so intently to his son, to see her ask questions and play along, even if it’s something that she knows already.

And when it’s time to eat, Baby Irwin has to be seated where he can see (and be fed) by both of his favorite people. He calls her by a nickname (some variation of her name) and Ash is slightly afraid that he’ll start calling her mommy some day and he’ll have to explain but for right now, it’s nice and it’s happy and they’re happy and that’s all that matters.

He hasn’t let himself think about relationships much since his divorce but he could see a future with her and that scares the hell out of him because what if she breaks his heart, too? What if she does the same thing his ex did? Love this little boy and then leave him? So, he keeps his heart guarded and settles for friends because at least this way they both have her in their lives.
