me and my mutuals who I've never actually exchanged words with booping each other instead of striking up a conversation
Transcript:
Vanilla: So are you just gonna stand there or are you gonna tell me how long I’ve been…out…?
Rayne: Long enough…
(I’m not sorry) ;-;
this is what you're doing to me btw. if you even care
SCREAM IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK
I said this in my twitter and I'll say it again, while i cant deny that Deruth is a bad father to Cale, he still supported him from afar (like the emotionally constipated person he is—).
Like, even with Drew still in the picture (if i remember correctly), he was still a bit awkward with Cale and only really connected with him through Drew. And after her death, the misunderstandings and miscommunication between them grew and grew.
(Imo, even in the present he's still connecting with Cale mostly through Violan and the kids' cues)
He was also grieving for his wife and coped the only way he knew, by isolating himself from everyone and breaking down in his sorrows. As much as it is a bad move to just basically abandon your child to deal with their grief, and seek his own happiness after without any thought of his child's feelings about it— he's also just a person. And people have flaws and make mistakes, just like we do.
(Would you like physical reminders of your dead lived one? The ones they left behind? Would you just brush your grief off easily and live normally with them gone? No? Everyone grieves differently, and Deruth was at his lowest point at the time. Ofc he would act like that)
Did he treat Cale like this way too long? Yes. But again, he wasn't 100% at fault in this. They both failed to communicate with each other, assumed each other's actions wrong, and tried to protect the other in their own way. Deruth and Cale still LOVED each other, they just couldn't do it properly.
(The family was also constantly being scrutinized by others, be it the public, extended family, or the nobles. So thats that)
It's a MIRACLE that he didn't make Cale do the things his late wife did so that he thinks she was still there (wearing dresses, growing out his hair, etc.). Or changed who he was/kicked him out so that he doesn't have a physical reminder of his late wife. Or even (wrongly) blamed him for her death.
Its a MIRACLE he spoiled Cale and gave him what he (supposedly) wanted. That he goes above and beyond to try and make his son happy. That he makes it so Cale lives comfortably, safely, and freely to his own desires.
Even in irl, there's many people like this (i can personally attest to that). And while it hurts sometimes, its still miles better than what others have. He shows his love in his own way, and i can live with it.
Saw hate on Deruth and like cmon guys
Deruth is the Asian dad :)
He neglected Cale emotionally but (unlike a certain King who is wealthier than most noblemen) Deruth also spoiled Cale a lot
New clothes, glimmering accessories, A LITERAL PRIVATE LIBRARY FOR HIM AND ONLY HIM
And Cale's food is always on top
Cale doesn't like the food he is served??, OKAY fire the chef, get him another perfect plate
Vicross is still standing and working because he's Ron's son and his food is "decent"
Oh but Deruth let Cale drink and become an alcoholic and does nothing about it 🥺
Pls 😭 stfu
Cale likes to drink, and he lets Cale drink
It's the only few things Cale likes
But he neglected Cale health 🥺
Girl this is a fantasy world, there's no doctor lmao
Cale needs and wants are met,, Cale lives comfortably in his house, safe and warm
Deruth is the dad who would buy the whole store
Cale: Can you get me uhh coke
Deruth: Ok *buys the whole company*
Cale: no
Come argue with me we'll fight to the death
#please don't take him just because you can :(
BRO- LEMME TELL YOU SOMTHIN- LET ME TELLYOUS OMTHING- WHEN I SAW KALDO FRICKING GEHENNA i became a fricking mad dog without a leash, SOMEONE PLEASE SEDATE ME-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I SWEAR OMGOSH-HE'S SO- MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM. anyways i'm so normal about him could i request sum smol hc??:)) please and thank y<3
kaldo gehenna is not a snack.
he's an entire gourmet meal.
i'm taking a different route and writing for him as a big bro bc he just gives a big bro vibe to me <3
reader is fem! reader
ᵗʰᵃᵗ'ˢ ᵐʸ ᵇʳᵒᵗʰ⁻ ʸᴼᵁᴿ ᴮᴿᴼᵀᴴᴱᴿ ?!
being kaldo's sister includes...
first of all, i'm so sorry you were born from the same womb as him
sucks to suck because he makes your life miserable in the best way possible and you're not even sure if that's physically possible, but somehow he makes it happen.
if you had a nickle for each time someone asked you if you and kaldo were dating because you guys are 1) opposite genders 2) look NOTHING alike and 3) get along fairly well in public, you would not need any inheritance money from your family to be rich.
at this point, kaldo is ready burn whoever asks either of you if you guys are romantically involved, like seriously he's sitting like "i raise this girl from the crib, we share a crib, we have world war five thousand in the same crib, and if i didn't know any better i would think i birthed this gremlin myself-"
you have a love hate relationship with him, take it or leave it.
of course, you guys will love each other and protect each other when it matters, but if it's a random ass tuesday, he'll throw a slice of cheese at your face
imagine the look on your brother's coworkers' faces when you waltz in like "where the hell is the burning pile of trash i need to beat the shit out of him-"
legit the security guards nearly had to sedate you to calm you down
and kaldo over here skipping down the hallway, sees you, goes "tee hee" and skedaddles.
everyone saw that
they don't know how to feel about it
and they have no clue what he did, but they're pretty sure he signed a death warrant with the way you're ready to bite someone's head off
not even orter knows what to do, he's standing there confused out of his mind
by the time they calm you down enough to ask you what happened (kaldo farted and made it look like it was you in front of your crush), no one has the right to be mad at you
honestly, if they were a teen and their sibling pulled some mad shit like that, they'd be upset too
i'm not kidding, i'm pretty sure orter would rip wirth's head off, like i'm sorry but i can't imagine that not happening-
however, kaldo has to deal with you at some point because you live in the same house
there's no avoiding this one for him
he did this to himself
other than the occasional war he starts on his own, kaldo is generally a reliable big brother.
reliable as in he's going to count every single favor you ask from him and make you pay for every single one of them back
and yes, he's fed you honey sashimi and made you eat a whole serving as a dare, and i don't think you can look at honey the same way anymore.
however, regardless of how shitty he is 90% of the time, there will never be a day he leaves you hanging when you're in danger.
oh, someone's stalking you? don't worry, he's already stalking them back. there's been an assassination attempt on you? nah, he already tailing them, and they should be on their deathbed some time soon lmao
doesn't tolerate a single bit of disrespect towards you
it doesn't matter if you did something wrong first (though he highly doubts it because his baby sister is a model citizen and is smart enough to know what the law is).
honestly, it's already going to ring alarm bells in his head if someone starts blaming you the moment they see him because yes, he knows you're a hotheaded person, but you know the difference between what's self-defense and what's down-right harrassment.
and all the times you've been in trouble with the law because you jumped somebody, it was all self-defense.
one time, some guy tried groping you, another time a saleswoman was yelling at you and nearly shaking you by the shoulder when you claimed her goods were fake, and the first time you got in trouble you were a kid giving one of the poorer kids an apple that you were going to pay for... but the vendor called you a thief before you could get your allowance out.
yeah, kaldo doubts you'd cause any serious problems, and he already knows who's going to jail by the look on your face.
like people might think they can get away with messing with you because you're a spoiled little girl from a noble family, but they don't count on the fact your brother will breathe down their neck with murderous intent until they give you an honest apology.
he's the only one who can mess with you and get away with it. not even his own coworkers gets a pass. thankfully, they don't blame you for some illegal shit that happened, but if something happens and kaldo manages to hear what happened, he's going to be side-eyeing them for a while.
the only time normal citizens get to see what his eyes look like is when he's defending you, and honestly, they wish they could be the person they were before then.
i'm so serious that kaldo is HORRIFYING when he's angry, but thankfully, he's not an easy guy to piss off. in most cases, he'll piss someone else off before they get a chance to annoy him.
one time some random noblewoman pretended that you ran into her during a party of sorts and made her spill wine all the way down her dress just to yell at you.
little did she know mr. flame cane was at the party too, and it's no secret that you're a member of the gehenna family, let alone the only sister of kaldo.
honestly, he's onto her like a fucking sleep paralysis demon.
same with anyone else who thinks messing with you is a good idea.
and people who DO know you can clap cheeks as good as your brother can KNOWS not to mess with you.
your coworkers? perfect behavior, never sasses you, has great manners, never raises their voices at you.
your friends? they get some leeway, but only if they're messing with you as a joke. they know more than well not to cross your boundaries.
your lover?
you don't have one.
kaldo made some impossible quiz type thing that basically disqualifies all your possible suitors to be your potential lover.
overprotective, yes, but unless you genuinely love someone and it's obvious to him they love you just as much, if not more, then he won't stop the tomfoolery.
Forgive me, this is not for the faint of heart
