Neverwinter Forest young

cameo!!

 

So dad was comatose. Caerus had spent his days largely away from the living, huddled next to the zombie body of Cupid all the time. He slept in a burrow that was too small and cramped, but it was near dad, so he didn't give a fuck. He practiced hunting when he could, would bring little mice back to Cupid sometimes, wait a few hours for dad to awaken but instead give up and eat the thing himself. 

Today he was out wandering to find something again. When voices caught his attention, his ears swiveled- a laugh- and he crept forward as quietly as he could, though he was far from perfect. From the green foliage ruby gaze settled on his father, and his... sibling, walking together some several yards off. The girl dashed forward, Mal was smiling and living it up behind her, seemingly enjoying himself. 

How? 

Cupid had been hurt days before. Caerus was mourning. And here was his other father, laughing with his new child. 

Caerus turned away, and was off as quickly as he had come, uneager to reveal himself to them. Clearly they were happy enough undisturbed by the boy.
