Bonnie's life was on the line.. again.
The Other Side was collapsing, time was running out and as the anchor to the crumbling realm, she knew she wouldn't be spared. She stopped at her home and let Rose know. The news absolutely crushed her sister. Rose felt like she just got her back from when she died last summer. Becoming the anchor was her second chance at life but now it was being ripped away. Rose didn't even have time to argue a solution before she squeezed her in a tight hug and said goodbye. She was out the door, dashing off to pull Elena, Damon, and the others back from the Other Side.
Rose watched as the door shut behind her, wiping the wetness from her eyes before charging into Sheila Bennett's in-home study. From her life as a practicing witch and occult studies professor, their late grandmother had shelves full of ancient grimoires, scrolls, texts and items so she ought to have something that could save Bonnie. As the minutes ticked by, the piles of useless books stacked around her grew with her desperation.
"There's nothing here!" she muttered, slamming the heavy grimoire closed. The force rattled the desk and the shelf above it, knocking a scroll down in front of her. Rose blinked away her frustrated tears and lifted the dusty scroll, blowing it with her breath to reveal the Latin handwriting and symbols.
Tumblr media
After pulling her friends back to the living world, Bonnie anticipated the approaching light. She glanced back, meeting Elena's solemn gaze. They all gathered behind her, no words left to say as they watched their beloved witch meet the very fate she had saved them from. She knew she couldn't save herself and she accepted that. She only hoped that within the next few moments she would find peace with her grams and father.
The moment she closed her eyes, she felt a jolt of energy lance through her. Something changed. When she opened them, she was amongst the others but Rose stood a few feet away, the wind of the collapsing dimension tossing her brown curls, the white light reflecting off her face.
Horror gripped her when she realized she was no longer linked to the Other Side, Rose was.
She offered Bonnie an apologetic smile as she watched tears bead down her shocked face.
"I love you, Bonnie," she uttered just before the light consumed her completely...
and she was gone.
The brightness subsided as the wind around her settled to a calm hush. Rose could finally open her eyes and found that she was standing in the same place, at the boarder of Mystic Falls but everyone had disappeared.
She dashed around town calling out Bonnie's name, looking for her, their friends or anyone but it was completely deserted. She stopped to catch her breath in the middle of the town square, the usually bustling epicenter was empty. That's when panic set in, worrying that she was actually dead, though this didn't seem like the “peace” described or even hell. For that matter, she didn't feel dead, in fact she felt very much alive something she realized when her stomach growled. “Dead people don't get hungry," she told herself as she walked into the Mystic Grill. Much like everywhere else, the Grill was desolate. She made her way into the kitchen and found it fully stocked with alcohol and food that seemed up to date, so the town couldn't have been abandoned too long ago, she thought. Rose made a quick sandwich and walked toward the bar when her eyes fell upon the bulletin board. She nearly dropped her plate when she read the date on the calendar.
May 9th, 1994.
Tumblr media
It didn't take long for him to notice that things were different. After 18 years of complete solitude, he grew accustomed to the consistency of the realm. His strong ability to detect the presence of magic, made it all the more obvious to him when the young Bennett witch touched down in his prison world. He tracked her down to a Virginian town called Mystic Falls where he first saw her in the living room nose deep in a grimoire. He slipped through an unlocked door and watched her silently out of her view. He figured she was looking for anything that would explain where she is or how to escape but she likely wouldn't find anything in those texts. Luckily for her, he planned on revealing everything...
In due time.
Just over a week passed and unbeknownst to her, Kai was watching the entire time. He’d stay up while she slept, curled up with her fuzzy plush lamb she called lamby. Most nights she’d clutch the stuffed toy to her chest and just cry herself to sleep. Like a sad shelter commercial, he enjoyed the pathetic display, though he hated the little white lamb with a passion, fantasizing about how much more she’d cry if she woke up and it’s head was cut off.
He observed everything, from her tendency to talk to herself to the she way she put tension in her lips when she was concentrating on the Latin of her texts. Clearly, she was a beginner and her general naivety would come to his advantage once he finally decided to make his move.
Tumblr media
Rose swayed her hips as she rounded the corner, pushing her grocery cart while singing along to ‘I Wanna Dance with Somebody' by Whitney on her Walkman. He sat in a fold up lawn chair in the center aisle of the otherwise empty market, munching on a bag of pork rinds and watching with an amused grin, wondering when she would finally notice him. After deciding on a box of Count Chocula, she finally turned from the shelves and their eyes met. Her mouth fell open as she paused the tape and lowered the headphones from her ears. He smiled and gave a slight wave.
“Were you there the whole time?” She blurted breathlessly, taking him in. His face had a pleasant balance of soft and sharp features that made him both cute and intimidating and a mischievous glint in his blue eyes. The dark brunette wore a hooded jacket styled over a graphic tee, denim jeans and worn out converse.
“Yeah, I didn’t want to interrupt. You sounded amazing by the way.”
Her cheeks burned, “t-thank you… umm who are you?”
“Sorry, manners, I’m Kai. Nice to meet you.” He set aside the bag and stood up from the chair. Her eyes followed his ascent until he stood fully, towering over her. “And you are…?”
Her ears got hot. “Oh right! Rose- I’m Rose… excuse me, I haven’t spoken to another person in a while. I promise I’m not normally this awkward…” she sighed and averted her gaze downwards.
Kai shoved his hands in his pockets, “can’t be any worse than me I've been here since the very beginning.”
“You’ve been all alone for 18 years?" she uttered in disbelief.
Kai forced a laugh, “It's not so bad. There’s no traffic, everything’s free and privacy isn’t an issue… now, there is the crippling loneliness but that only creeps in once in a while.” He casually plopped back down on his chair and grabbed his chip bag.
“There’s no way out of here, is there?” She sighed.
"Nope, not unless you happen to be a Bennett witch…” he scoffed as though the thought were incredulous and popped a rind in his mouth.
Her eyes lit up. “Wait, I am! I am a Bennett witch.”
Kai grinned, “well then the odds just got a lot better.”
“So, is Kai short for something?” She asked as they walked back to her place. Kai offered to push the cart for her.
“Malachai,” he replied.
“Malachai,” she practiced softly.
“But I prefer Kai,” he tagged on.
“What about you, Rose is short for what? Rosemary or… Rosalie?”
She giggled. "You’re close, it’s Rosalina but I prefer Rose.”
“Rosalina... that's pretty, much more fitting if you ask me.” The way he said her name made her want to bite her lip but she opted to return his smile instead.
“This is me,” she announced when they came to her house. She led him inside where he was kind enough to help her put away the groceries.
“So, what is this place?” she asked.
“One of many prison worlds created by the Gemini coven. Anyone who opposes them is gifted their own personal hell dimension. I got mine on my 22nd birthday.”
“Why would they do that to you?”
He sighed, “most of it is coven politics- what you know and who you know, ya’ know? Long story short, my family betrayed me for more power. I don’t really like thinking about it.”
Rose understood and decided not to pry. “So, you know how to get us out of here?”
Kai leaned forward on the counter while he explained the Gemini coven always left a back door to their prison worlds and it was called an ascendant. Under the direct light of a solar eclipse a Bennett witch is to use her magic and blood to activate the device and transport them back to the real world. “We’re going to need a locator spell to find the ascendant. Without my magic, I haven’t been able to find it.”
“When is the next eclipse?” Rose asked.
“Time works a little differently here… the month of May repeats itself over and over, starting with the 9th. Every third time May 9th comes around the eclipse happens.”
"The last eclipse just passed a few nights ago… that means we have about three months to wait.”
“On the bright side, we have plenty of time to find the ascendant,” He noted with an optimistic air. It amazed her how he managed to be so hopeful and positive even after being trapped for 18 years. “After all this time, 3 months is nothing,” he murmured.
She thanked him for helping her with her groceries. “Well, I’m going to make stuffed chicken for dinner. You can stay if you want.”
“You just met me and you’re asking me to stay for dinner… I mean, I could be a serial killer,” he finished with a charming smirk.
“You’re too nice to be a serial killer,” she put matter-of-factly while taking out the chicken breasts.
“Ted Bundy was nice,” he retorted.
She smiled at his wit. “Are you staying or not? Because I need to know if I’m making one chicken breast or two.”
Kai relented, “Oh, alright. How can I say no to stuffed chicken?”

A suspicious deal that makes Bonnie indebted to Klaus (also Klaus being a annoying as hell about it).
"Your blood is the only thing that can heal a Vampire with Werewolf venom in their system," Klaus rolled the glass of scotch in his hand. His body was relaxed and expression composed after inviting the little witch to listen to her appeal. The lack of emotion on his face made it hard to decipher his true thoughts. Bonnie couldn't help but wring her hands in repetition. "I know you don't owe Elena or any of us, but I wouldn't have come to you if it wasn't important."
Klaus made an unimpressed sound and took a sip of his beverage. He spread his arms along the sofa's length, and a faint arch stretched his lips. His eyes slowly moved along Bonnie's new appearance. Klaus found that her curled hairstyle flattered her features more than the previous one. Kissing the back of his teeth, he wondered, "I thought you wouldn't put yourself at risk for your little friends anymore." Klaus sized Bonnie up and down with mock condescension before his trademark smirk set over his lips. "Yet, here you are saving Elena yet again."
"Just because I set my boundaries in not being the fix-it witch anymore doesn't mean I'm going to let my friends die." Bonnie replied with the same cutting wit, "I know you have trouble understanding the concept of real friendship, but Elena would do the same for me."
Hiding his amusement, Klaus snarkily commented, "oh, I'm sure your best friend in the world would gladly give her life. She's done so for my ritual. The Salvatore brothers, however, would be less inclined to allow it, I reckon. If they had to choose between you and their precious Elena, who do you think means more to them?" Klaus his tone was bragging, full of bluster. He had the face of someone who knew all the gossip and secrets in town. Bonnie would be more surprised if Klaus didn't make it his business to know simply to be petty, no matter how menial.
Bonnie squeezed her hands before sighing. "You're the only one that can heal her, Klaus." He still didn't budge like he was waiting for something. Bonnie added for good measure, hoping it would thaw the Original's cold, vindictive heart, "Elena is Caroline's best friend too." The edge of Klaus's mouth twitched and fell. His glassy stare narrowed, visibly displeased by her remark. It was too subtle a response, and Bonnie couldn't quite place the emotions. However, she relaxed her hands and tapped her fingers together.
"Well, I don't see Caroline anywhere," Klaus noted, looking around the room blankly, proving his point. He set his glass on the table between them and leaned forward, "instead, you, Bonnie, came here rather than her or Damon or Stefan. The only reason you're truly back in Mystic Falls is to learn more about your family lineage." Klaus watched Bonnie lower her head and study him, lips pressed flat, and openly expressed her annoyance. Kissing the back of his teeth, amused, Klaus leaned back into the sofa. "If I'm going to do this good deed, I want something in return."
Bonnie's viridian eyes darted back to his face, hesitating, but it wasn't as if she expected otherwise. Feeling flustered by her less-than-ideal circumstances, the tenseness in Bonnie's stomach clamped together. Pulling back in her seat slightly, she opened her mouth to argue, then stopped and sighed, conceding. "Fine," she scowled at the failed grin Klaus tried to contain and said, "but I'm not doing anything that will put anyone in danger. No magic."
Elated, Klaus ran his tongue along the inside of his lower lip before adding in a silky soft manner, "it's nothing too excessive or unreasonable, love. I simply want to reserve some of your time to discuss something that will benefit the both of us."
The tension left Stefan's body when he witnessed Elena sinking her teeth into Klaus's wrist and greedily gulping down his blood. The latter willingly fed her, which Stefan distrustfully pushed to the back of his mind. After discovering Elena ingested werewolf venom at Rebecca's party, he called Klaus. The hybrid didn't pick up. Stefan left several voicemails and called the others. However, he couldn't reach Caroline or Tyler. Damon wasn't picking up either. Even Jeremy went off the grid. The last person on his list was Bonnie. Luckily, she was in Mystic Falls and staying at her dad's. Stefan knew Bonnie wanted nothing to do with him or Damon. Stefan texted her regardless. It was an emergency; this was about Elena's life. If Bonnie wouldn't do this for him, then at least for her best friend. So imagine Stefan's surprise when Bonnie walked in tow with Klaus on her heels.
Klaus ignored Stefan when he entered and went straight to check on Elena. He stood by the bedside and gave her a scrutinizing look. Stefan couldn't help but shift on his feet, casting a veiled glance at Bonnie. He was worried about Klaus's atypical behavior. He was neither demanding nor snarky with his comments that, like it or not, if they did kill Klaus, there would be no way to deal with werewolf venom. Leaving out the sire bond, they needed Klaus, a bitter pill to swallow. However, Stefan caught the calculated and predatory glint in the Hybrid's eyes, amplified by the secretive smirk on his face.
Klaus was plotting.
When she arrived, Bonnie didn't acknowledge Stefan and stared at her best friend-turned-vampire with a puckered forehead. No one deserved this fate, and an overall weighted feeling set in her chest. Bonnie thought of what Lucy would say once she found out about asking Klaus Mikaelson for a favor. "Way to stay out of vampire business, Bon. You're barely back in Mystic Falls and already fixing things. Lucy is going to chew on my head for this." Bonnie drew a deep breath through her nose, but it didn't do much to lessen her apprehension that she agreed to Klaus's favor.
"Thank you for this, Bonnie," Stefan said after carefully watching the shorter witch. She'd been staring at Elena with concern. Stefan picked out the fine distinctions in her stiff expression, the clamping of her hands on top of each crossed arm and rigid body. When he voiced his gratitude, Bonnie looked at him before quickly looking back at Elena and raising her chin, showing her alertness.
"I didn't do this for you," Bonnie responded calmly. There was no malice or hatred in her voice, but Stefan knew her words, once again, set a line between them as individuals and maybe even species. Except for those she cared for, like her mother, Caroline, and Elena.
"I know," Stefan acknowledged and looked forward again. "But, I'm still thanking you, even if you didn't." Elena's reddened, swollen veins faded when she unhooked her fangs from Klaus's wrist. Stefan glanced at the ancient vampire, silently inspecting Elena like an examiner, before nodding, satisfied to that effect. Klaus was plotting, and Stefan would find out what it was.
After coming down from her delirium, Elena looked confused at the blur coming into focus. When she saw her savior, she almost jumped from the bed and searched the room for Stefan. Her relief was brief and became joy when she smiled excitedly at the person in the room and nearly cried, "Bonnie!"
"Hi Elena, how are you feeling?" Bonnie smiled genuinely. The first emotion didn't make her feel like she needed to keep her guard up, even if she was still wary.
"All... better, uh, actually," Elena was hesitant to feel relieved, though, and cast a glance at the source of her unease, then away. Klaus was present, arms behind his back and gazing down at her with that familiar shrewd curiosity. Elena looked at Stefan, and Bonnie pushed herself halfway up and wiped the sweat from her flushed skin.
"Well, it seems my work here is done." Klaus turned away from Elena to watch Bonnie expectantly before commenting, "come along, love. We have much to discuss."
"What?" Elena suddenly perked up in her position, and even Stefan took a moment for the words to register. The couple looked at Bonnie, who glowered at a smiling Klaus in silent accusation. Elena hesitantly opened her mouth, asking nervously, "Bonnie, what's Klaus talking about?"
Clearing her throat, Bonnie brought her arms over her chest. The desire to flee sounded better than explaining she owed Klaus. Bonnie didn't want to worry her or mess things up. Besides, Klaus wouldn't hurt her, of that she was sure. "It's fine, Elena."
"You saying that makes me worry more." Elena jerked her head in Klaus's direction and glowered at the Hybrid. He pointedly ignored her and saw how he stared at her best friend. "I swear if you hurt Bonnie-"
"You'll what, Elena?" Klaus raised a brow and offered her a questioning gaze. "I saved your life because your best friend knocked at my door with the request to do so. If I were you, I would be more grateful for the mercy offered. If you all managed to rid the world of me, what do you think would have happened, hm? Let's play that game for a moment." Klaus pointedly glanced in Stefan's direction and called attention to why they would always need him. Their lives were literally bound together.
"Listen, Klaus, whatever you want from me, leave Elena-"
"I don't want anything from you. Your lover is cured, and I have what I need." Klaus's glower sharpened as he sized Stefan up and down indifferently. Whatever friendship they once had in the past was strained. Turning on his feet, Klaus focused on the witch and gestured towards the door. "Bonnie."
"What happened to you leaving Mystic Falls for good?" Bonnie asked as she and Klaus left the Salvatore house. With Elena healed, the dread nestling in her gut intensified. She wanted to get this over with as quickly as possible. There were more important things than being around Klaus and doing illogical favors. Bonnie wanted to go through the Mystic Falls archives to see if she could discover more about her ancestry. So far, the longest line her family could trace back was Ayana, who arrived in the New World 1000 years ago. Everything in between that, where Ayana could've migrated, was a mystery. They only had records of the Bennetts in Salem before their return to Mystic Falls in 1692.

I was scouring the internet for Mel's concept art and they finally released it.
Evan Monteiro did his work. Look at the natural hair references for Mel 🥺😭. I feel so seen and she came out amazing. Also Mel is 26?!?! How young was she when she got into the council? Also, Mel is taller than I expected, 172 cm (5'7).
Shoola's is on the list too. I'd love to see the references used for her. Especially the inspiration for her neck brace and golden tipped finger jewelry/rings.

My #1 post of 2022
Tumblr media
an honest enemy is always better than a friend who lies
pay less attention to what people say, and more to what they do
their actions will show you the truth
Sworn enemies Bonnie Bennett and Klaus Mikaelson find themselves entering an alliance that hangs by a thread. With trust scarce, and betrayal lurking from all sides, they turn to each other. Better the enemy you know than the one you don't.
The process is simple: you feed, or you die. There is no third option. Bonnie doesn't accept that and, desperate to save her mother taps into the dark arts to prevent Abby from becoming the monster she fought to destroy. Predictably, the consequences of such a dark spell quickly rear their ugly heads.
Yet, Bonnie never imagined that her actions would be the spark that unchained a supernatural war. Regardless, her sights are set on curing Abby and reversing her wrongs. All while maintaining a shaky alliance with the Mikaelsons… again. But this time, the stakes in their forced unity are becoming more complicated, with clashing ideologies and difficult feelings lingering from their previous alliance.
Meanwhile, a new threat is awakening - a new enemy sets its devastating plan, spanning for millennia, in motion. Allied with Esther Mikaelson, this force seeks the destruction of the vampire specie as a tribute. It shows a particular interest in the Bennett bloodline.

All Throughout The Great War (on hiatus; possibly indefinitely)
Summary:
A (mostly) canon-compliant fanfic going from September 1st, 1969, to October 31st, 1981. - "The shrill sound of the train’s warning whistle startles Marlene out of her trance of staring at the Hogwarts Express in wonder; that, and her Aunt Euphemia’s hand enclosing her own and pulling her towards the open compartments, Uncle Fleamont hurrying after them. “Excuse me,” Euphemia says hastily to other family members scattered around the platform. Some were crying, some looked nervous, but others looked positively relieved to be sending their children to Hogwarts. If Mother were here today, Marlene thinks, she would be one of them. That makes her sick to her stomach, and she hastens to the train."
Oneshots -
Do You Think About Heaven? | Emmary, fluff + angst
Summary:
“”-And I just thought you would wanna see it,” Moody finished, handing the photo over, or maybe forcing it into her hands. And she just stares at it. At Marlene’s face, so happy and full of life, something that at the present moment she simply couldn’t have. Lily and James, standing proudly and with huge smiles. Dorcas, with that small smile that she used so rarely in an event that had nothing to do with Marlene. The Prewett Brothers… Edgar, his wife, who was such a wonderful woman, and his children killed alongside him… Benjy Finwick…”
I Stayed There (Dust Collected On My Pinned Up Hair) | Emmary + Wolfstar, angst, major character death
Summary:
The first words Mary ever said one-on-one to Emmeline was, “Why won’t you just leave me alone?” It wasn’t meant for Emmeline, and Mary had apologized profusely for it, but sometimes Em still brought it up. On the days her wife decided to tease her, she would say it to every question Mary asked until she kissed the answer off her lips. Then, Mary had enjoyed it, even if it did get a bit annoying at times. Now, she would do anything to have her wife do that for the rest of eternity.
You're No Good For Me (But, Baby, I Want You) | Quillkiller, angst, major character death
Summary:

Summary:
“Y’know,” he said, and she turned to him. Remus smiled. “I think I’m in love with you.” Marlene grinned impossibly wider, settling back into her seat. “Of course you are. I mean, I am Marlene Mayra McKinnon.” He had laughed at that, grinning. “But, if it means anything to you,” she had started, turning to him and Remus looked at her out of the corner of his eye, “I think I’m in love with you too.” It did mean something to him. It meant everything to Remus.“ - a study of remus and marlene’s relationship over the years.
The Vampire Diaries:
Ongoing -
always remember (the burning embers) | Kalijah, hunger games au, angst.
Summary:
Daphne’s voice comes out after the crowd dies a little. She gives a perfectly white smile and exclaims, “May I present the male volunteer for District Four of the 62nd Annual Hunger Games: Elijah Mikaelson!” If the cheers were booming before, they are ear-splitting now. An older son of a victor, one who has passed his Academy training if the lack of volunteer calling is any indication, and a daughter of another victor, a Bennett girl enrolled in the Academy. This seemed to be wrapping up to be an interesting year after all.
Oneshots -
Suffer With Me | Kalijah, angst, memories, au for 2x1 of tvd.
Summary:
The woman passes the baby to whom Bonnie assumes is her husband. The woman on the bed is sobbing, she can hear that much.

Almost. As soon as they say their goodbyes and he makes sure he hung up five separate times, the vampire stops revving his engine and vamp speeds to the cellar. Klaus is leaning against the cellar wall, Damon still looking very bored. Clearly, they had not been having a very interesting conversation. ”Klaus,” Stefan said by way of a greeting to either of them. “We need to talk.” or: when elena calls stefan to tell him of her "kill kol" plan, he creates an even worse plan to counteract said plan. of course, this has absolutely nothing to do with a certain original sister. of course not. right?
whether weather be the frost (or the violence of the dog days) | rebekah + elijah, sibling love, au for 1x13 of to.
Summary:
The first thing she noticed was the amount of dead wolves around her. The one who had been breathing down her neck only seconds before was lying next to her on the ground, neck at an off angle.

(A Favorite Color) Can Be Very Personal Indeed | rebekah + elijah, kalijah, the mikaelsons have issues.
Summary:
It takes a second for Katherine to respond, which doesn’t help the itchiness under Rebekah’s skin at all. When she finally does speak, it’s not what she had expected at all. “What’s his favorite color?” ”What?”“What’s Elijah’s favorite color, Rebekah?” ”I… I don’t know.” or: Rebekah and Klaus learn things they should have known a thousand years ago and Elijah is confused over how his favorite color matters all that much.
The Hunger Games -
everyone sees it (except for me and you) | Clato, cashbaria, odesta, 5+1 things, canon divergence.

Enobaria simply shook her head, now confused herself. ”See what?” Brutus’ mouth now gaped open. “Cato and Clove?” Enobaria was starting to get annoyed, and she showed it by yanking the knife she had thrown out of the dummy particularly violent. “What about them?” she snapped. Her fellow mentor opened and closed his mouth a few times before snapping it shut. Finally, Brutus laughed a little. “You’ll see.” or, 5 times Enobaria doesn't understand what's happening between Cato and Clove, and 1 time she does.

Sorry if this isn’t as polished as I hoped, but here are some tattoo studies! These ideas were all inspired or directly came from Bonnie headcanons from @nys30 and @scorpio-karma (headcanon of lotus flower and vines on her chest, however, I combined it with a rose headcanon idea-hope that’s cool) https://archiveofourown.org/works/35145946/chapters/87659821#workskin
https://scorpio-karma.tumblr.com/post/668159542063972352/bbhc-week-tattoos-so-for-a-while-in-the-bonkai
after this first round, I’d love to try the lotus version of this too btw!
The rose and raven wing headcanon was inspired by @xxgothchatonxx
https://xxgothchatonxx.tumblr.com/post/668177130863165440/bbhc-week-tattoos
The little spirals and designs that look like they’re glowing were inspired by @shadowcatgirl09
https://shadowcatgirl09.tumblr.com/post/668223510062202880/bbhcweek-day-four-tattoo-having-the-originals
Pattern designs and flower designs were inspired by everything-y-nothing @everything-y-nothing https://everything-y-nothing.tumblr.com/post/668138138469908480/bbhcweek-day-4-bonnies-tattoo-collection-nosce
The two serpents and dragon tattoo were ideas both given by nys30. Please let me know if I forgot anything/anyone to credit and there will be more experimenting so, yeah, like I wanna do the four-leaf clover idea from Leianaberrie https://leianaberrie.tumblr.com/post/668148583129825280/bbhc-week-day-4-tattoos @leianaberrie. I, unfortunately, can’t do every idea this round, just started to do deadlines for myself so that I can move on with sketches and not hyper-fixate too much haha.
So, why tattoos?
Besides the fact that they look damn great on Bonnie, I think they can also serve a narrative and magical purpose for her character and development. When discussing ideas with the BBHC’s we found that the tattoos can represent how this character tries to retain balance with her expressionism magic and regular light magic (credit to Scorpio-Karma for helping solidify this idea). An example of this is how the raven wings can be filled in halfway with ink or entirely filled in when expressionism takes over. I also like the idea that lifting feathers was her first spell as a witch, where we got to see her have genuine fun with her magic for the first time, so why not have it as a symbol for her mental state and the nature of the magic she's pulling from? The ink filling in the tattoo will represent her mental state tipping into expressionism and/or receding when it tips into light magic, having it filled in halfway shows us that it is in balance.
The other designs would be great little visual cues for her development and character in a story (the two serpents from nys30 being a great example for her relationship outside of the prison world with Kai) and @hysteriaww hilariously brought up how it matches with Kais twitter handle too. The dragon tattoo (also from Nys30) is a great representation of Bonnie traveling the world and becoming a leader in her own right. The magical glowing spiral and henna designs unlocking and moving like gears on her skin and shining gold would be great illustrations for when she uses her magic. A purple rose represents royalty once she claims her title as the matriarch of the Bennetts. The roses that hide her scar on her chest. The possibilities are endless. Another idea that was shared was how most of these tattoos are cloaked until she uses her magic so that’d both save my worn eyes and serve for some great surprise tattoo designs that always shift and change based on her plot and mood. Most, if not all, of these BBHC are credited above with their own reasonings behind the tattoos, they’re pretty great so go check them out when you can!

Road to Ruin
I... have no idea where this came from. But hey, I’ll take almost 2K of story after a drought of words. SFW, character death, probably some angst. You can read it here on A03 if you prefer.
                                                            -
Caroline had missed the Memorial Service.
Finals at NYU had been brutal, her schedule packed and tangled tightly together after a truly unfair back to back testing schedule. She’d wanted nothing more than to climb into her lumpy dorm bed and sleep for a week, but she’d promised Bonnie she’d try to make it.
She hadn’t.
But that was the fault of May storms and erratic flight schedules, not her personal choice. By the time her mom picked her up in Richmond, five hours late and dragging with exhaustion no number of espresso shots could perk up, it was dark and raining. She’d fallen asleep in the car, dragged herself into the house, and had just enough energy to change before diving into her bed for the sleep she’d been missing for what felt like weeks.
Elena was dead.
The news had come five days before finals, and after sobbing her eyes out on her RA’s shoulder, she’d pulled herself together and buried herself in all night study sessions and endless equations. But the knowledge had lingered, that this friend of hers who had grown so distant the last year, more distant than any amount of school schedules and new friends could allow for when Caroline was a devout texter, was gone. She’d cried in the shower, for the girl who she’d once known and would never know again.
Shifting her weight on the damp grass, Caroline studied the freshly dug grave. The last few years before graduation hadn’t been good for their friendship, High School having been a roller coaster of drama and boys that was expected, she supposed. But if only that had been the only drama, she was certain they wouldn't have grown so far away from each other. There had been that weird mass grave that someone had found that had kept her mom busy for months dealing with the locals and the FBI, the weird way the old boarding house had been repaired seemingly to open up only to remain empty. Those strangers who her mom had not liked who had asked questions about a couple of weird gravestones in the museum. That series of petty thefts that had kept her mom even busier than the mass grave and its collection of weird historians and FBI investigations, that had finally culminated in some family heirlooms being stolen from the Lockwoods.
Tyler had bitched for months about it. Weirdly, it had been those complaints that had been the deciding factor that had her breaking up with him. Yeah, the sex had been good, but a girl did not need pillow talk about family heirlooms and how upset his mom had been. Any boyfriend worth their salt (and teenage hormones) should have been far too distracted by her being naked right there, not their moms.
She shuddered a little, thinking about it.
The second half of their junior year had been a mess, and been made worse when Aunt Jenna had died. Caroline’s fingers tightened on the bouquet she was holding, thinking of all the deaths that had accumulated that year. Aunt Jenna. Her Dad. Carol Lockwood. How terrified she had been that her mom would end up next, logical or not.
Then there had been the way Elena had gone all weirdly obsessed with finding her biological parents, the way it had driven her as if it was something outside of herself she couldn't control. Caroline studied the tops of the flowers she held in her hand, wondering if not for the first time if she could have done something different. Been a better friend, helped Elena in some way. Those long weeks that first Christmas when Elena had decided to spend it alone, how she had refused to answer a single text message until she’d shown back up at school, dark circles under eyes like an underfed anemic.
She’d been… different, after that. Less boy crazy and more… mature. And that summer, she’d gone to meet a family claiming to be hers. And when she’d come home, she’d been so happy. Bouncing, sparkling happy. Cousins, she’d said. Brother’s and a sister who said that her mother had been theirs and they’d been looking for her.
Family.
That was what Caroline wanted to remember her. The girl who sat with her for hours after Bill died, both of them quiet, legs tangled on Caroline’s bed. The girl who liked board games and pink lipstick and who had terrible taste in shoes. Her friend. Not the girl from their Senior year who had slowly become something else entirely. Pale and wane, short tempered and then so, so quiet. The girl whose new family moved into Mansion at the edge of town that had been empty for decades, who paid for an expensive car and clothes and who never came to a single game to watch her cheer.
Letting out a slow breath, she set the flowers she’d brought down on the grave and chewed on her lower lip. People usually said things at graves, didn’t they? But she’d never been good at that sort of thing. Not at her Dad’s grave, and not here, standing over the bones of her friend. She’d brought daisy’s because Elena liked them, and she briefly closed her eyes, hoping that Elena knew she was here, that she missed her, and that even if she reached the old age of one hundred, she’d remember the night she and Elena and Bonnie had laughed until they cried over the most ridiculous of conversations, until they’d had to scramble to pretend they’d been sleeping when her mom came home at dawn after her shift.
That would be the Elena she’d take with her.
Swallowing hard, she turned on one heel and jerked to a stop, heart slamming into her throat as she found a man she didn’t recognize lingering far too close to her. He was only a few inches taller than her, but something about the utter stillness of his posture, the way she hadn’t heard him walk up behind her, her usual excellent sense of people taught by her mother and perfected in the subway system having failed to ping at her, left her breathless with surprise. For a moment, Caroline struggled to get her pulse under control before narrowing her eyes. “Excuse you, creepy much? Most people have the decency not to loom in graveyards.”
A sudden hint of a smile played across a distractingly full mouth, and he reached up and pushed his sunglasses up into his rumpled curls, something about the way he was looking at her sending the faintest hint of alarm down her spine. “Spend a lot of time in graveyards?”
“That is none of your business,” Caroline said, letting her voice frost over in disapproval.
“Apologies, love.” He said, body shifting from that hair raising awareness to a soft charm she might have liked if she hadn’t seen him looking at her like she was a particularly interesting bug. “I didn't recall seeing you at the funeral, and I’m sure I would have remembered you.”
Something about him, the way his eyes never left hers, put her back up. She hadn’t spent the last two years in New York City to let some weirdo stranger intimidate her now. “I don’t recognize you at all,” she said primly. “So that means you were fairly new to Elena’s life. Do you make a habit of memorizing faces at funerals? That seems like the sort of thing that would alarm a psychologist.”
The curve of his mouth deepened, and to her despair, he had dimples. “You must be Caroline Forbes. Ms. Bennett was disappointed that you missed the service.”
Caroline shrugged, stubbornly holding his gaze though it was starting to bother her that he didn’t blink. “May storms are a bitch. And neither Bonnie nor Elena mentioned anyone who would match your description.”
He looked intrigued. “Do you usually ask for physical descriptions of their acquaintances?”
“And pictures of their drivers licenses,” she retorted. “So that if they go missing, I know where to direct my mother to find them, but you're definitely not either of their types, and since you think you have some claim on Elena, that must mean you belong to the Mikaelson family. Which one are you?”
She didn't do much to hide what she thought of his family, and it didn’t seem to bother him.
“Smart,” he murmured. “I’m Klaus.” And then he offered her his hand, something like a challenge lingering at the back of his eyes. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Caroline.”
It was a dare. And she was terrible at turning those down, even as her instincts warned her that there was something about this man she wasn’t seeing. But she was also standing twenty feet away from a number of her own dead relatives, and Grandma Forbes would haunt her forever if she was rude to this man in front of her. Baring her teeth in something like a smile, she took his hand. “A pleasure, I’m sure.”
Laughter had lit his eyes a half moment before their skin touched, and something she couldn’t describe rolled down her spine. More sensation than feeling, she felt it down to her feet, and it left her pulse pounding. She pulled her hand back, too quick to be polite, but she didn’t care as she stared at the man who had gone still and so quietly dangerous, she was debating reaching for the pepper stray attached to her keys.
She could probably get it out and in his face before he lunged.
Maybe.
Klaus’ fingers had curled into his palm, as if he too had felt whatever that had been, and the blue of his eyes were doing something strange, and Caroline became intensely aware of everything around them. The buzz of summer insects, the shape of his stupidly plush mouth, the smell of fresh turned dirt. It was the near silent buzz of an incoming text that broke the staring contest between them. Senses hyper-alert, she pulled her phone out of her purse and saw that she had two missed calls from Bonnie. Glancing up from her lashes to find that Klaus hadn’t looked away, so she pasted on her best false smile and shrugged.
“Well, Klaus, I’m sure this is where I should say something polite about seeing you around, but that seems super unlikely,” Caroline said with a false shrug of disappointment. “So, I’ll just say bye instead.”
A lowering of his lashes, something behind his eyes that burned her skin. “Hmm, I suppose we’ll see, won’t we? The family has decided to stick around a bit longer, give ourselves time to mourn. You may be surprised how much you’ll see us.”
Caroline snorted and stepped around him. “History of your family’s willingness to grace the town with your presence says otherwise.” But because her grandma had raised her right, and was probably seriously judging her only granddaughter from the plot just a few feet away, she smiled and waved, just like her pageant days had taught her. And only when she was almost to her car, did she relax enough to look at her text.
And felt her heart drop to her toes.
I don’t think Elena is dead.
Brows tucking tightly together, she went through the motions of unlocking the car door, glancing back towards the man lingering in the graveyard. Klaus hadn't moved, except to slid his hands into his pockets and to turn to watch her. She could still feel the imprint of his fingers against hers, the heat and calluses of him, the shock of him down her spine. For a moment, she tried to remember what Elena had told her about her biological family, the people who went through all the right motions but never showed her friend the care she deserved. The brother’s who had been so considerate, and offered her anything money could buy but not a single ounce of affection. Lifting her chin, she narrowed her eyes, even though she knew he couldn't see her.
Let him think what he wanted. She was fairly certain she’d never see him again. Klaus, who stood in graveyards in pressed slacks and rosaries around his throat. Something was going on there, and the last thing she needed was for him to turn out to be some kind of serial killer.
Sliding into the driver’s seat, she started the engine and set her teeth, only then allowing herself to really absorb what Bonnie had sent her. Not dead? What was Bonnie thinking? And if she was right, why would the Mikaelson’s lie?
Why bury Elena, fake or otherwise, with the ghosts if she wasn’t really dead?

His Rose ~ Details
(Kai Parker x Bennett OC fanfiction)
content warnings/tags ~ Dark fiction, dom/sub dynamics, abuse, murder, childhood trauma (mentioned). Minors DNI
I don't claim ownership of The Vampire Diaries or its characters. All credits go to the rightful owner(s). I only own my original character(s).
K.P. Masterlist
This fanfiction is born from my dissatisfaction with the way Kai was criminally underutilized in the TVDU. Honestly, I found him annoying at first, but he grew on me as season 6 went on. Thru Chris Wood's charming performance, Kai stole the show for me. I'll never forgive the showrunners for a lot of things, including underutilizing Chris Wood in this role & not allowing this broken king to have a real redemption arc.
On the topic of the showrunners, I'll never forgive them for how they did Bonnie Bennett or the Bennetts in general with how they were limited to magical plot devices for everyone else's use without any appreciative focus on their power & how it could really benefit them. Even though I love Bonnie & Kai, my otp endgame for her has always been Bonenzo, but I also adore Klonnie ❤️.
My AU changed and added plenty of lore around his coven & certain events. The plot follows the life of Bonnie's younger sister, Rosalina "Rose" Bennett-Ruiz. I go on to describe her below, but I'd like to state that she acts as Kai's antithesis as an innocent, fledgling witch. She's also Bonnie's support system. I always hated how the show often ignored that Bonnie lacked family around her that were unconditionally there for her. Bonnie's mom left when she was small, she lost her grams in season 1, and her father was a non-factor in her life until he returned... just to get killed off in front of her.
I wrote Rose & Bonnie's dynamic keeping in mind everything I hate about older sibling/younger sibling dynamics, like the one between Buffy and Dawn in BTVS. Bonnie deserves family that consistently supports her, encourages her to prioritize her well-being, and actually tries to lessen the existing load on her shoulders.
Another thing I kept in mind when adding Rose to my TVD AU is not to have her replace or take away Bonnie’s space in the plot. Now, I do give her Bonnie's plotline of being sent to the prison world in season 6, but this is essential to the story, and the way Bonnie was treated that season made me so sad that I have no problem taking traumatic experiences from her (of which she has more than enough) and giving them to Rose.
Okay... if you made it through my rant, congrats. I also want to offer my inbox as a place where anyone can offer up requests, scenarios, ask questions, even if you want to roast my cruddy writing... my inbox is open.
Tumblr media
🌹Rosalina "Rose" Bennett-Ruiz:🌹
Born: March 18th, 1994 (18yrs)
Gender: Female | Height: 5’1” | Hair color: Brown | Eye color: Hazel
Race/ethnicity: Black and Latino/Hispanic
Species: witch (Bennett)
Titles: Rosy (Kai), littlest witch (by Kol), kid (by Damon)
Characteristics:
Rose is a gentle and kind-hearted person, always looking for the good in people and situations. She can be a people pleaser and is naive and overly trusting, often seeing the best in everyone and believing in second chances.
She highly values family, so bonding with Bonnie means a lot her. Due to her naivety and weakness, she can be easily manipulated and taken advantage of. Like Bonnie she’s compassionate and tends to selflessly help others. Struggles with powerful spells because of her insecurity in her magical abilities
She enjoys singing, gardening (honing her nature-based magic, making potions & studying herbology), sewing and cooking (she bakes when she’s anxious)
She has a strong aversion to blood & violence so spending time with vampires took a lot of getting used to
Trilingual: fluent in Spanish & Portuguese
Despite her demure demeanor and virginal innocence, with her stuffed animal collection, enduring love of cartoons and a lack of dating, she harbors the secret desire to submit herself to a powerful dominant
Background:
Family: Bonnie Bennett (half-sister), Jamie Ruiz (half-brother), Abby Bennett-Ruiz (mother), Matteo Ruiz (father 🕊️), Sheila Bennett (maternal gm🕊️)
Rose was raised in Summersville, North Carolina. She was a child model until 13 when her father tragically died. She was the captain of her high school majorette dance team. Her life drastically changed when Bonnie arrived on her doorstep.
Rose was 16 when she & Bonnie would finally meet. Bonnie and Elena came to Abby for help with a spell. Rose was shocked to find that she had an older sister as Abby never mentioned Bonnie or the life she left behind in Mystic Falls. She was even more surprised upon finding out about her magical bloodline and that supernatural creatures walked the earth. Unlike Grams, Abby never mentioned magic throughout Rose’s life and even went as far to suppress her magic with a charmed necklace
After Abby is turned by Damon, she decides to leave her family to learn control and find peace as a fledgling vampire. Rose moves to Mystic Falls with Bonnie where she learns magic from her.
Magic doesn’t come naturally to her. Admittedly having a 50% accuracy rate with her spells. She struggles with her confidence & focus when chanting and spells drain her much quicker even when she tries channeling the energy around her. Despite this, Rose is determined to improve, valuing her one-on-one time with Bonnie and spending late nights on her own practicing & memorizing spells. She is determined to use her magic for good, prove herself and lessen the load on Bonnie as the resident Bennett witch of the group.
Her role in the Mystic Falls gang is the “Bennett witch in training” or “the bringer of baked goods” (according to Damon), since she often supplies their gatherings with fresh pastries. Everyone underestimates her power, even Bonnie. She tries to keep Rose out of danger unless she can’t help it.

🔪Malachai "Kai" Parker:🔪
Born: May 9, 1972 (22yrs)
Gender: Male | Height: 6'0" | Hair color: Dark Brown | Eye color: Blue-gray
Race/ethnicity: white/non-Hispanic
Species: siphoner (Gemini Witch coven)
Titles: abomination, black sheep, the defective twin (his coven)
Characteristics:
Charismatic with a charming smile. Upon meeting him, his charisma operates as a façade to hide his lack of empathy and his sadistic tendencies
Can be hard to read but that’s because he struggles with expressing his emotions which stems from his abusive childhood. He’s cold and relatively unfeeling with people, but once he lets someone in, he’s fiercely loyal and protective.
He can be observant, calculating and manipulative to taking advantage of someone and get what he wants
He’s a sassy man, often comes back with quick quips and has a natural sense of humor (typically dark humor)
When he’s comfortable, always yapping, has no filter and sucks with certain social cues. After being alone for nearly his whole life, will talk anyone's ear off without realizing they are not willing to listen
Kai can siphon all of a witch’s magic without killing them. He controls how the process feels - at its worst, a fast searing burn to a slight tingle. Overtime, a witch will regenerate their magic
High libido!!- He’s starved for touch and affection (though he would never admit that he needs anyone). Sexual desires reflect his sadistic personality as he enjoys dominating another person through absolute control and pain infliction
He likes raunchy comedies and media with half-naked women such as Bay Watch and MTV videos. A major foodie with constant cravings for sweet and salty snacks. He prefers snacking throughout the day but when he does bother to cook, it’s really good
He is fluent in old Latin, often found in grimoires and other ancient texts. Time allowed him to hone his knowledge of witchcraft and technique
Background:
The Parker family is the head of the Gemini coven. Its patriarch, Joshua Parker is the coven leader. Kai is the eldest child, being half an hour older than his fraternal twin, Josette. Unlike Jo, Kai was born without the ability to generate his own magic, instead siphoning magic from lingering spells, objects, or other witches. When he was young, he would naturally gravitate toward the magic of his sister, so Joshua quickly decided to physically isolate Kai from everyone for fear of his son's "defect" hurting others.
As fraternal twins born of the coven leader, Jo and Kai would be set to merge on their 22nd birthday, where the winner takes the other's magic and coven leadership and the loser dies and is absorbed into the other but with the risk of Kai's siphoning ability giving him an edge in the merge, Joshua and Viviane continued having kids until she birthed another set of twins that would merge instead.
Kai's upbringing was lonely, spending most of his time locked in his bedroom up in the attic. Following his father's lead, most of his family excluded and demonized him. As he grew, Kai learned to internalize the cruel labels they gave him. If they wanted a monster, they would get a monster and on his 22nd birthday, May 9th, 1994, he would finally act on his boiling rage and resentment toward his family, unleashing the hatred he accumulated through a lifetime of torment onto his siblings when Jo refused the merge. To protect the twins, she would relent to merge with him but the coven was waiting and with the help of Sheila Bennett they banished him to a prison world of complete isolation.
Each year that passed only added to his hunger for revenge, left with nothing to do but plan his escape and seizer of coven leadership. He grew to take pride in what he had done to his siblings and his status as a sociopath capable of killing anyone who gets in his way without remorse.
AU-Specific Lore:
Tumblr media
Prison world Lore:
The prison world resets with the eclipse every 3 months.
Time works differently, so no one ages throughout their time there.
The prison world cannot create life so the only living inhabitants are those sent there or arrive via ascendant.
Kai is linked to the prison world so he can’t die. If something kills him, he’ll be out for a while depending on the damage but the magic will heal him back to life. Without Kai, the prison world falls apart so while he’s there, it sustains his life to sustain itself. Once he leaves, it ceases to exist.
The Ascendant - an ancient device created by the Gemini coven and a Bennett ancestor that only responds to a living Bennett’s blood and magic. The ascendant is sensitive to magic in general, so even when the spell is done right, it will activate then fall apart. You only have one chance at the time of the eclipse to correctly do the spell, which Kai knows from experience because early on he tried collecting a vial of Bennett blood that he hunted down in a hospital and using Josette's magic he siphoned from a hidden dagger. Disappointment boiled over into rage when he did the spell beneath the eclipse, the ascendant disassembled, but he was not transported out.
The Gemini Coven Lair:
Exists as a non-physical location where the coven keeps ancient texts, grimoires, enchanted items (talismans, gems, ascendants, etc.), and materials for spells & potions
Infinite space that can be utilized by the coven leader: often includes a space for magic instruction, a library, spell casting, a gathering area for the coven, etc.
Accessed only by portal, which is summoned by a spell entrusted to high-ranking Gemini members

Of Dragon Injuries and Weasleys
I’m planning on this just being a short one-shot. This idea randomly popped in my head upon seeing a mood board for a Harry Potter character ship (Hermione and Charlie). I don’t know for sure how well it will work, but I’m hopeful! Anyway, I hope you all enjoy this crossover ship! Let me know if you would like another installment of something like this one-shot! Happy reading!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Her travels land her in Romania. She finds that out of all the places she been to and seen, Romania is most definitely her favorite one. She can practically taste the magic in the mountain air and their architecture is breathtaking. Although she only spent two days to gather supplies in the city, she still took a few moments to appreciate the beauty.
An extremely loud and deep rumbling sound had her twisting around to look at the mountain. The woman knows that by now she should just stay away from anything that spells trouble, but she can’t stop herself from going to investigate. She comes upon a clearing with a pond, but what causes her to stop and hide behind one of the trees is the fact that right before her eyes is a HUGE DRAGON.
She is well aware that her jaw has dropped and she absentmindedly thinks about what a certain blue-eyed vampire’s reaction would have been. She allows her eyes to take in the landscape as her magic slowly unfurls from her and curls around the area to check for any threats. For some reason she nor her magic sees the dragon as a threat (even though it’s insane that she doesn’t see it as a threat, she chooses to ignore it for now).
She quickly takes notice of a group of people slowly sneaking up on the dragon as it lets out a low growl. The woman’s eyes snap from the people to the dragon and takes notice of the injuries that it has. She looks back at the group of people and sees strikingly long red hair attached to a burly body. She carefully allows her magic to feel out the group and finds that their intention is to help the dragon.
The woman nearly snorts as she goes back to studying the dragon... there is no way in hell that dragon is letting those people near it. Her assessment is proven correct when it lets out a plume of flames towards the group of males when they go a little to close. There is a short exclamation from one of the men and she watches as one of them lifts - what is that? A... twig? Her head tilts as she looks at it and watches as a light comes out of it shielding the group from the fire. Her eyebrows raise as she realizes it’s a wand.
Biting her lips as she studies the situation, her eyes darting between the dragon and the group of males desperately trying to help the poor thing. She shifts her weight from side to side, she can’t decide what she wants to do. She desperately wants to help the dragon, but she’s more worried about how the men would react to her (which again, ridiculous that she’s more wary of the men than the dragon).
The woman has gotten to the point where she can practically feel the dragon’s pain and panic as she watches it. She allows her eyes to run over the dragons body again and realizes with a jolt, that it’s stomach is distended. Her eyes shoot to the group then to the dragons eyes and what she sees in the dragons eyes cause her to throw caution to the wind.
Before she can talk herself out of it, her legs already have her sprinting into the clearing straight for the dragon. The group of men immediately take notice of her, yelling out for her to stop. All she does is say a quiet “Motus” as she flicks her hand their way. Causing all of them to go flying backwards, their commotion causes the dragon to look towards her.
The low growl that comes from it sent vibrations through the ground that were so strong, she stumbled a bit. Before it can gather the energy to spit fire at her, the woman reaches out to the dragon with her magic. Allowing for it to make of her what it will, causing both of them to completely stop moving. She can feel the men watching on baited breath while also trying to slowly make their way to their feet.
She holds up a hand in their direction, wordlessly telling them to stop moving; as she does she takes notice of the dragons wild magic. She can’t help but be in awe of the majestic creature in front of her as she carefully moves closer. “I promise I won’t harm you, I just want to heal you” She whispered as the dragon let out a low rumble and lowered its head for her to run her hand along the scales.
The woman slowly closes her eyes as she puts her forehead against the dragons snout. Meanwhile the group of males are gaping, the red haired one can’t stop himself from inching forward. He wanted to get closer, he wanted to talk to the nymph like woman that was able to throw all of them with a flick of her hand, he also wanted to get closer to young Norberta. 
Charlie Weasley could tell that Norberta was injured and in pain, which also meant that her survival instincts are ruling her. So if the little nymph of a woman made any sudden movements she could get torched. When Charlie got within four feet of them, they both jerk their heads to look at him. It causes Charlie to freeze and put his hands up, he opens his mouth to say something- anything. He finds that he as lost hit ability to speak, his entire body goes tense when they narrow their eyes in tandem.
Charlie takes a stumbling step back when the nymph took a step forward. Her voice washes over him and it feels as though he is drowning. Charlie Weasley finds himself jerking out of it when his brain processes the word he heard her say and seeing Norberta gathering herself to spit fire. “Incendia” That word causes him to yell out and turn to face the men that came here with him - his brothers in everything but blood - and finds then completely untouched by flames. 
He barely take notice of pained screams coming from behind them through the rushing of blood in his ears and from what he can make out through the flames... they were death eaters that had escaped the Aurors after Voldemort fell. When he finally pulls his eyes to the flames to see where the small yet powerful woman was; the woman is moving around Norberta, calmly healing her injuries. Charlie exchanges looks with the others as they all continue to watch this strange woman interact with Norberta.
Charlie’s eyes widen as he watches her carefully rub her hands along Norberta’s stomach; causing the norwegian ridgeback to make a purring sound. His eyes narrow a bit as she moves to Norberta’s head and he makes out her quiet voice. “It’s okay mama, your baby is just fine.” Charlie’s eye widen and he can’t stop his outburst, “Mama? Norberta can’t be pregnant, we’ve kept her away from males during her heat! How do you know for sure whether or not she is?”
He watches as the woman turns to face him and gives him an unimpressed look which strangely makes him feel chastised and smaller than her. She continues to slowly stroke Norberta neck and head as she talks. “Last time I checked, sperm can stay alive in the womb of females for at least a week. She didn’t have to be in heat during whatever intercourse she would have had with another dragon. It would have fertilized her baby or babies none the less. Also... Norberta? Really?” Charlie blinks a couple of times at her as the other handlers chuckle as they come up beside Charlie.
One of them drops a hand on his shoulder, “She’s got you there mate!” Charlie lets out a huff of annoyance. “Care to tell us your name nymph? Her name is a long story involving a well meaning half giant, my youngest brother, and his two friends.” 
His response causes her to pause in her stroking and raise a brow, “Nymph?” he hears a small huff come from her as she shakes her head choosing to ignore what he said after and goes back to stroking Norberta. “My name really isn’t any of your concern, I just saved your lives and helped your dragon. I owe you nothing, I stopped owing people a long time ago... not that I ever actually owed anyone anything.” They all hear the slight scoff after her last words. Charlie could have sworn he heard her mutter “Hindsight's a bitch.” causing him to let out a cough.
“Look, how about you come back to the reserve with us and help us get Norberta back to safety and we can talk this out? What do you say dragă?” He watches as the woman turns to study all of them and watches as the breath she pushes out moves a piece of her hair out of her face. Finally, she nods her acceptance and steps away from Norberta. Charlie walks forward and holds out a hand to her. “I’m Charlie Weasley, care to tell me your name nymph? Or would you prefer dragă?”
She briefly glares at him and grudgingly takes his warm callused hands which leads to a deliciously muscled and tattoo--- no! The woman quickly shakes herself and responds. “Bonnie Bennett, nice to meet you Charles.”
