Myth scolding Genaro for his bad parenting?
This takes place in the Fritz Route, after Hildyr got freed.
Myth wantedto sigh when he felt yet another pull at his spell controlling the king. The spell’sworkings were easy enough. Cut the connection where mind interacted with body andput the body either on remote control or let it follow a set routine.
It had the advantagethat he didn’t need to micro manage the king into doing the basic things ofkeeping himself alive. If there was food placed in front of him, he would eatit. At specific points in time he would move to the dining room, his sleepingquarters, the throne room or where ever Myth directed him to.
“Why do youeven keep trying to get control back? It wouldn’t help you anything. Not evenimprove your situation!” he glared at the man and felt the man’s mind reel, surprisinglydefiant looking how passive he had always been. And angry. Myth wanted tolaugh.
“Oh,blaming the witches on everything again? Do you really think it’s my fault? Sure, I guarded the Tenebrarumand showed the princess where it was, but I didn’t force her into freeing hermother. She still believed what she knew. Her mother loved her. You don’t care.You have more important things to take care of and direct your attention to,”Myth smiled at the way the mind recoiled, making it much less tasking to reinstatefull control, but well… a little gloating was allowed.
“It was so easy in comparison to how difficultit would have been, if you had botheredwith her, you know? But after you had ignored her for months? You couldn’t havemade it much easier for me. And then pretending it never happened and giving up so easily again!” The mind reeled, projectingmisery and guilt.
“It all happenedbecause of you. Because you feared the tantrum of a witch, who hadn’t evengrown into her powers yet. Imagine it: One day to tell her the truth, a fewdays -maybe weeks- to let her calm down and then? No more hiding, no more lies,no more secrets… But no- you wanted to be done with this part of your live. Andthis decision made the part come right back.”
Leaningback in his seat, Myth closed his eyes, basking in the fury, guilt and miserythe king was throwing against the ropes of the spell.
“Are youeven aware that Hildyr will most likely kill you, if you break that spell?” Onelast struggle- nothing. Myth smiled, showing teeth and feeling utterly elated.
It was so nice to be on the winning side.
15?
And here is another one.
015 - Emotionless
Beingemotionless would have been a blessing. It would make the whole thing so much easier!
But Mythwasn’t able to just kill off his emotions, his wants or his wishes. And so, hespent every single day since the rebellion seething on the inside, snarling atpeople celebrating about the queen’s death and cursing the traitor and the damnedfairy with every insult he could think off.
And laterfought back the desperation and depression pushing down at him, when he lookedat the sleeping face of his teacher. He couldn’t fail. He wouldn’t fail. But the fear of failure was gnawing at him, day andnight, every second he spent in his disguise.
Fear ate athim, anger boiled inside him, fury seemed to cloud his thoughts when his mindslipped away.
Being ridof these pesky feelings wasn’t possible. But it made the future of his queenreturning look so much sweeter, that it may even be worth it.
Your writing is veeery good. Thank you for creating all this content. Can I request Myth interacting with young Lucette? Like, before the rebellion.
Take some story time.^^
If anyone wonders, the tale Myth starts telling is taken from the game “Kingdomd of Amalur: The Reckoning”. There are multiple tales in it, this one is the start of the one called “The Fading Of The Fae”.
The ten-year-oldwas looking at him curiously from her place at the floor in front of themakeshift puppet stage Waltz seemed to try to hide behind. “Princess,” he bowedstiffly to the girl and then glared at the boy trying to make himselfdisappear. “This is what you do, when you’re supposed to be studying?”
“W-Well,” Waltzchuckled awkwardly and forcefully, glancing at the door as if he was judgingthe time, he would need to reach it and flee successfully, “What are you doinghere, Myth?” “You didn’t put the books back. I got the allowance to get out ofyou where they are. That involved hunting you down in the first place. Does thequeen know what you’re doing?”
“It’s a secret!” the girl exclaimed cheerfully, “Youlearn together with Waltz? Can you also do tricks? Waltz can make flowersappear!” Big golden eyes peered at him. With her head slightly tilted the smallgirl looked… kind of cute.
“Secret?”he asked flatly, “Flowers?” “And we make dolls together and come up with storiesand he is really got at telling stories.”
“Stories?”he raised an unimpressed brow Waltz, “You do this instead of-?” “Don’t tellmother, please?” Myth starred at the girl. “What?”
“Don’t tellmother, please? I like having more company than my dolls and the maids areforbidden from playing with me and mother is barely there…” a pleading gaze methis eyes “You can stay as well!”
Silence. “What?I have no time to-” the golden eyes seemed to get a bit watery. For a momentfaces seemed to overlay, golden eyes darkening a bit, face morphing into a toddlerpeering at him, reaching for him. He forced the feeling away, before it couldgrab him. He starred silently at the girl. “And what would I be doing here?” hefinally asked coolly.
“Oh, Waltzand I come up with stories to tell each other. These Fairytales are boring andalways following the same pattern. So we come up with new stuff. Do you knowany stories to tell?”
He triedglaring at Waltz, who was still looking at him, but not looking outrightterrified anymore.
“I…”curious eyes looked at him. Hopeful and waiting. “I guess, I know a few fewerknown ones…” he finally sighted and the small girl let out a delighted aroundand suddenly he got pulled down to where she was sitting. “Tell, tell, tell!”The girl stilled and then looked over to the stage. “Is it something that couldbe played as well?”
“Ah… I doubtyou have the fitting things here…” Myth started and looked around for a moment.In the end the girl settled down comfortably anyway and looked at him. Mythalmost flinched when Waltz sat down as well, looking just as curious.
Myth took abreath and started talking, remembering dark evenings and a dark voice wistfullyrecalling old stories from memory.
“They were the harbingers of the Fall, theseChildren of Dust…and they lit the forest with their fires, and then split it with their blades.We crept back, shapeless in the darkness, silent in the trees. But shadows are few in this age of mortals. The light beckons…”
It was along tale and he was barely halfway through when he felt a weight against hisside and trailed of. The princess had fallen asleep and cuddled up to him,Waltz giving him a bright smile and then got up, coming back with a blanket.
Myth lookedat the sleeping girl snuggled into his side and tried to drown away thememories of a dark-haired toddler doing the same years ago.
This is the Secret Santa gift I received on the Discord server, where some CP fans came together and decided to participate in a Secret Santa. I love the gift very much and how could I not add it to this collection of Myth fanwork.^^
My Secret Santa gift to Verona-mira. I hope you like it! The prompt was redeemed Myth getting roped into a Marchen Christmas Celebration. It’s about 1k words and Myth/Lucette!

My happiness about this blog existence is too big. So can you maybe write a Drabble about Myth’s first weeks in Hildyr’s training? How was he adjusting to this new life and all that? If it’s ok for you.
I live to write! ^___^
I hope this is along the line of what you wished for. (I may have escalated it a bit towards the end…)
“This will be yours.”
The door was closed now and Myth was alone in the roomthe queen had just assigned him.
‘Yours’ she had said. His. This was his.
This whole room.
A whole room for himself after years of running andhiding and fearing the cold of the night and used to the pain of hunger.
Hesitating for a moment, he stepped further into theroom, the wood of the floor not even creaking under his weight.
Clothes had been the first thing provided by thequeen, upon deciding he was worth some of her time. A street child had no placefollowing the queen around.
Standing in the middle of the room didn’t makeanything disappear. In a strange way it made everything more surreal and realat the same time.
Smooth, painted walls and a window. A drawer and acupboard. A nightstand and a bed.
Drawer and cupboard proved to be empty, but what wouldhave been in there? He hadn’t brought anything with him.
The sight from the window was met with darkness.Whatever was on the other side, it was too dark outside to see at the moment.
The bed was real. Soft and warm and utterly heavenly.
Exhaustion, mixed with the surreal new situation hewas in soon enough swirled together into the dreams he would never remember.
Myth wasn’t trusting this new routine quite yet.
He got up in the morning, got a meal, started on hislessons and worked on them until either he was finished or night arrived, onlyinterrupted by another meal in the evening.
It was strange to not need to worry about thingsanymore. It was… nice. A sense of security had severely missed and mournedwhen his childhood home had turned to ashes.
There was food, there was warm clothing and rain andcold weren’t a problem anymore, because he was inside heated, dry rooms duringhis studies.
He didn’t trust this peace. People didn’t just sweepin and took in orphans. It just didn’t happen!
Not that he dared to voice that thought. Especiallynot to the person, who had rescued him. No reason to bite the hand that fed him-in this case literally!
He was here, because the queen wanted it, learned fromher, because she wished so.
He needed to figure out why.
There was another apprentice, Waltz.
He was a bit younger than Myth, but had also been herefor a bit longer.
And the queen wasn’t teaching them together. For somereason it gnawed at Myth.
Why not? What was the reason? They couldn’t bedifferent in skill if she had decided to teach them both…
Myth found himself paying attention. Especially to howmuch time the queen spent on whom (her daughter taken out of the equation, shewas a blood relative, the princess rating higher than him in the queen’spriorities wasn’t surprising).
The queen spent… a lot more time on Waltz.
Why? He had watched the other boy and he wasn’t a goodstudent at all! Sure, he got the material quickly, but shirked the lessonswhenever possible!
Maybe she spent more time on him, because she knewthat as well…
Yes… that was it. Surely it was that.
But… why would she keep sucha troublesome student around?
There was pain flaring when he moved, the welts on hisback burning.
He should have known better than agreeing to do thatboy a favour! No one would know, he had said. Nothing would happen, Waltz had promised!
“I thought better of you… Butit seems, I need to remember you, who you’re owing your place… And how easilythat gift is taken away.”
The room was dark. Cold. Somewhere underground.Layered with something that kept magic just out of his reach.
No light. No warmth. No power. Hunger gnawing at him.Thirst burning in his throat.
How long had he been in here? How much time hadpassed? He wanted out, he felt so powerless and weak and he didn’t want to feellike that again -pleaseletmeout!Ogodthedarknessisdrowningme!Pleasepleaseplease!It'schokingme!IpromiseIwon'teverdoitagain!Pleaseletmeout!
He didn’t remember the darkness taking hisconsciousness away.
…
“Look at you, you learned yourlesson so well! Lets see, if you’re a good student after all.”
The words were somehow in his mind when he woke up. Asif someone had said them just before he woke up.
The whip marks on his back were bandaged, the softlight of the dawn was streaming inside the room through the window, a meal onthe nightstand next to the bed.
It took a few days for him to get over himself and askWaltz about what happened.
Nothing had happened to him.
Nothing had happened to him.
NoThINghaDhapPendtOhiM!
Myth found himself hating Waltz.
Waltz, who got his queen’s personal attention, despitehis disobedience.
The prodigy, who never took his lessons serious.
The one favourite, who never even got punished!
He deserved nothing!
Myth would prove it. He would get his queen to look athim. He just needed to make up for the first slight.
He would prove that he was worth it!
There were new scars on his back, now.
His thoughts were kind of hazy to grasp.
He remembered darkness…
Right, he had been studying by himself, topics notassigned by his teacher…
He hated Waltz.
He wouldn’t disobey his teacher again.
He was a good student.
Pain. Darkness.
He hated Waltz.
He wouldn’t question his queen.
He was a good student.
Pain. Darkness.
He hated Waltz.
His queen’s decisions were absolute andwithout fault.
He was a good student.
Pain. Darkness.
He hated Waltz.
His queen was perfect.
He was a good student.
Pain. Darkness.
He hated Waltz.
His queen was perfect.
Pain. Darkness.
His queen was perfect.
Pain. Darkness.

Pain. Darkness.

Shewasperfect.Shewasperfect.Shewasperfect.Shewasperfect.Shewasperfect.Shewasperfect.Shewasperfect.Shewasperfect.Shewasperfect.
He would give her everything.
Alright:
1. Askbox is empty. Please sent request. T__T
2. I decided to open my askbox for NSFW requests. I’ll try to write them. Posts with NSFW content will be marked as such with a warning before the snippet, drabble, etc...
As such you can make requests now for: -AUs -snippets -drabbles (from the list or otherwise) -questions -One-Shots -any other writing connected stuff, you may want me to write I didn’t list yet, but no poetry. (I mean it. I suck at poems.)
The only condition is, that it somehow involves Myth/Mythros.
Well, look at what I found. A list of keywords for drabbles that was quite popular on Fanfiktion.de once as the 120-challenge (I think it was called).
You can ask requests for a specific setting with a keyword or simply pick a keyword in generall and I’ll write something for it.
If there is no ask in general, I’ll simply pick one with a random number generator.
And yes, words can be picked multiple times.

Myth x Lucette "050. Breaking the Rules" dabble?
050 - Breaking the Rules
There were many rules applying to a princess. Social ones, etiquette and sometimes simply expectations about how a princess currently had to behave. There were always witnesses for behavior. Family, servants, chaperons or maybe even guests.
Currently there was no one outside of Myth. And the level of freedom that added to their interaction was exhilerating like the first time she had channeld magic freely in an appropriate open space.
There were no roaming hands or deep kisses belonging into back alleys. Lucette was no fan of there things. But despite everything Myth was clingly and just like herself loved to be close enough to her for touch. Holding each other. Being closer than was approopriate. Kisses were a rare thing, both were not quite sure how to add to their current relationship.
But both needed the touch. The contact. No matter the rules, expectations or opinions. Touch made it real, where words were simply lacking.
And Lucette would willingly break many kinds of rules to keep that assurance that everything between them was real.
What about 005?
You shall receive!
005 - Seeking Solace
Memoriesand dreams were the only solace Myth still had. His queen was encased incrystal. He was hiding who he was, unable to trust anyone and not able to moveanywhere, where hiding would be unnecessary.
He didn’twant to hide, to play loyal pawn to the king, who was undoing his queen’s work!He wanted-!
If he wascompletely truthful, he wanted his life back from before the Hunts. Being ableto hug his mother for reassurance and his father there to chase imaginarymonsters away. Seeking solace in the warmth and protection only his parents couldoffer him until they had gone up in flames together with everything else.
And whilethe queen had taken him in, she wasn’t someone to coddle her apprentices. Shewas no one to offer reassurance. Not to him, who wasn’t her child. She was noone to went to, to seek solace. She was a beacon, shining bright, but too coldto offer comfort or warmth. The only safety it offered was the light illuminatingyour surroundings.
But Mythmissed the warmth, missed the safety and having a place to belong. As it was,he needed to seek solace in his memories and dreams.
hii jdjsksks so happy to see this blogg love mythros so much <333 if you have the time, could you write a drabble about mythros’s interactions with varg/fritz ?
Well, here it goes.^^Just a bit of Varg in this one.
Myth wantedto curse. Preferably Alcaster into oblivion. Pity, he needed the man’sresources or he would arrange an accident. Or a sickness, depending on thecircumstances.
As it was, heneeded to make due. Like always with the man. A bit more common sense or a bitof foresight past the tip of his sword would do the man some good, then hewouldn’t need to clean up these kind of messes.
Clack. Clack. Clack.
He glared atthe source of the sound and the black haired young man gave him a smile thatwas more showing teeth than smiling. But then wolfs didn’t smile, only baringtheir teeth at possible threats.
But Vargstill stopped clacking the cane against the floor and Myth turned away to lookat the map again marking another area off.
The soundrestarted.
“Can’t you goand bother Alcaster?” he finally snarled. He could force obedience with theleash he had built into the curse, but Alcaster was doing well enough aboutagitating the wolf and he didn’t want to be the first target if the curseshould fail him.
He would havepreferred using a more tailored curse, one that couldn’t be broken by accident,but Alcaster had bound his hands on the matter, by only calling him in afterthe convincing failed. And then there had bern no time! And so afairytale curse needed to do, casting eased by the template his queen hadworked into the Crystallum.
Well,depending on the princess thought on the curse and her attachment to theknight, he could at least claim that it kept the boy from getting killed. Pitythat even memory spells took preparation and he had been in no position tosimply let the knight disappear for a few days.
“He told meto go and bother you. He wants to know about the princess he can’t remember.”The personified curse smirked.
The livingmenace should remember the princess just as well as every other cursed.
But thenAlcaster couldn’t even recognize that his son was happy with his lot in lifeand the chances of him joining the coup resulting small.
And from thesmirk Varg knew that Myth knew that the curse knew everything.
Myth glaredback at the map of the town.
He hadapplied a tracking spell to the princess’ hairbands, but either all of themwere in the palace, he had missed some, whatever had happened had stripped thespell off or she was in a blind spot.
“Varg, comeover here. You can make yourself useful,” he said.
“More usefulthan just running around with letters?” the man asked mockingly.
“Not moreexciting, but yes, more useful. Give me the cane a moment.”
Object inhand Myth turned it to access the lower end and called upon his magic.
The slightstrain on his strength was calming, the task taking over his mind and taking uphis concentration.
Uponfinishing, he handed it back and then walked around the room setting a few morespells, creating a net pattern on the ground in the process.
“Walk thestreets and make sure to use this annoying habit of yours to clack it againstthe ground,” he instructed, “Every time you do-” he clacked it into the ground“It’ll create a mark.”
A pointappeared on the pattern.
“What’s thatfor?” Varg frowned at the point.
“It’ll createa map and show me the areas were my tracking spells aren’t working. There can’tbe many blind spots. And if the princess is actively hidden from us, it’ll atleast show where she is not,” Myth forced himself to stay calm. Telling thewolf the truth should keep shenanigans down.
Varg hummedunder his breath clacking it on the ground multiple times, as if testing thesound.
There wasno visible effect on cane or ground, but the point seemed to brighten a bit.
“Well, betterthan being coped up somewhere. I know where the exit is,” he said and strolledout.
Myth heardthe clacking of the cane distancing itself until a door closed.
Finally!Hopefully he showed more manners if he did find the princess.
