i know i headcanon Foul Legacy to have pretty sparkly wings instead of a cape but consider: if he does have a cape, do y'all think it would be detachable? mostly because i wanna snuggle in it so baaaad :,D

just imagine Foul Legacy finding you when you’re so exhausted that you fell asleep at your desk, papers scattered everywhere and pen still in your hand. he whines so softly, looking anxiously around the room- he doesn’t want to move you since you’ve had trouble sleeping at all lately, but you’re bound to get cold once the sun sets. so he does the first thing that pops into his head, unhooking his shimmering cape and placing it gently over your shoulders. you shift instinctively and snuggle into the fabric, grasping it in your sleep, and Childe has to hold himself back from cooing in adoration.

he leaves for a moment to fetch more blankets, draping a couple more over you and fashioning a makeshift nest beside your desk so he can curl up next to you. carefully he tugs your limp hand into his hair, purring with delight when it settles in his ginger locks. Archons, you’re not even awake and your presence alone comforts him so- past Childe would’ve scolded present Childe silly for being so head over heels in love, but he doesn’t care. Foul Legacy burrows into his little nest with a soft croon, drifting off with the knowledge that you were right here and not going anywhere.

when you wake up, it’s dark outside, the thought of all the lost hours making you groan. idly you turn your head to the side and your gaze lands on a slumbering Foul Legacy, curled into a tight ball next to your desk. when you stand something slips from your shoulders, the blankets and night-colored cloak pooling at your feet, and with a small smile you pick up the cape and sit next to Childe, petting his hair. he lets out a sleepy rumble and shifts closer, and you wrap his cape around yourself once more, snuggling into Childe’s embrace.

maybe a bit more sleep wouldn’t hurt.
