Bertie with 5, 7, and 17

· Leave a comment ·

5. What is a secret that they have? 
Bertie is the type of person who keeps a lot of secrets about himself. He tends to be protective of his personal life and will hide things even from his family if he doesn’t think they should or need to know about them. After he’s kidnapped he is suddenly in an environment where he can no longer be as private as he wishes, so he cherishes the few “secrets” he can get away with. The biggest one, of course, being his relationship with Darcel (that continues even after he returns home.) It’s dangerous, he knows pretty much everyone he knows would disapprove, and that’s what makes it so much fun. With Darcel, he shows a side of himself he doesn’t show others (except for Lunen), and thus to keep the allure of the relationship, he has to keep it a secret from others.

7. Any family scandals? Does your character know about them?
Bertie comes from a large family, so there are plenty of scandals to go along with that. He knows about most of them, even the ones that aren’t as well known to the rest of family, just since he finds that sort of thing interesting. His parents’ relationship had some scandals at first considering his father is one of the Twin Heroes of Unovan history and he and Hilda got together pretty quickly after he returned to human form. Then there’s his uncle’s family and their involvement with Team Plasma… and his own grandfather was one of the Seven Sages of the team… Great-Uncle Grimsley’s situation with Hymnia and his later retirement (and all the scandals Hymnia creates on her own)… his great-grandparents’ unconventional start to their relationship and mysterious deaths… the surprise secret Galar cousins everyone only found out about a decade or so ago… his father’s estranged sister that he’s only met once or twice… and of course everything that happens to him. So yes! Plenty of family scandals to go around!

17. Who is their favorite person(s) to spend time with?
Bertie enjoys spending time with people that let him relax or let loose a bit. People who he can show a side to that he doesn’t show anyone else. The list includes his twin sister Maela, his boyfriend Lunen, his cousins Euphie, Glenn & Hymnia, his best friend Blake, his companions Cyril, Poppy, and Laurel… and whatever his relationship with Darcel is meant to be. When it comes to his parents, it depends on the situation how comfortable he is around them. He trusts them and loves them, but he doesn’t really hang out with them much or anything. He’ll respect their boundaries if they’ll do the same for him, which takes some time for them to get used to, but they all do their best. He definitely gets along better with Albin than Hilda, just as Maela prefers their mother, but there are no real hard feelings about it. Also, while they’re still just toddlers, Bertie always loves to spend time with his young sons, Aurel & Elouan, especially in tandem with one of the people listed above.

This will probably be the last time I change any major ships but like I mentioned in the tags of my previous post I’ve decided to flip flop another protagonist ship. Like I switched around Red and Leaf’s families a while back, this time it’s Hilda and Hilbert’s. So now Hilda and Albin are married with Bertie and Maela, and Hilbert and N are married with Euphie, Tipha, and Oliver. Originally this started a while ago as a what if scenario but then I got really attached to how these pairings worked with these fankids in this AU so I guess it’s canon now whoops. I’ll go back and change any relevant posts, but that’s all for now!

are there any Sword/Shield characters that you headcacnon as being related to other characters? (y’know, like how you hc Volkner and Elesa being siblings)

I was going to just do this for Galar characters like the ask said, but then I realized I don’t have a list of all the related canon characters anywhere so I think I’ll include that as well, under a cut.

Galar

Kabu is Flannery’s uncle, which is something inspired by cute fanart of them together. Flannery’s father, Hoku, is Kabu’s identical twin brother and the two have a good relationship. Hoku’s very much a prankster though so whenever he visits his brother in Galar he has a habit of pretending to be him and doing weird/silly things, much to Kabu’s chagrin. Flannery couldn’t tell them apart until she was like 7.

Piers and Marnie are related to the Montfort family of Unova (which includes Grimsley and both sets of Unova protags). Their grandfather, Orpheus, was the twin brother of Calliope, Grimsley’s mother and the grandmother of the BW/BW2 protags. Meredith, Piers and Marnie’s mother, was the result of a fling Orpheus had, however, so this relationship doesn’t get discovered until after SwSh’s plot I don’t think. So this means that Piers and Marnie are the second cousins of Hilda, Hilbert, Nate, and Rosa, and the first cousins once removed of Grimsley, Diana (Hilda and Hilbert’s mom), and Harper (Nate & Rosa’s dad).

And now for a much briefer breakdown of the other relationships in this verse (in no particular order)!

  • Blaine is Red and Leaf’s grandfather. Consequently, Red and Leaf are also siblings.
  • Samuel Oak and Agatha are exes and had a son together, Thaddeus, who was born after they broke up. He was raised by Agatha and went on to become Morty’s father, meaning Morty is the half-cousin of Daisy and Green.
  • Yellow & Lance are first cousins. (They’re also first-cousins with Nobunaga because Conquest is canon to L&L history but that’s a story for another day.)
  • Bill is the cousin of the Kimono Girl sisters.
  • Falkner and Will are half brothers. Will is also Lucian’s half brother, as his and Falkner’s mother had an affair with Argenta, Lucian’s mother (who was single at the time).
  • Mars is Silver’s older sister and like him is Ariana and Giovanni’s kid.
  • Jasmine is May and Max’s first cousin (her mother and Norman are siblings.)
  • Archer and Proton are brothers.
  • Hun is Tory Lund’s older half-brother.
  • Vincent is Professor Elm’s son.
  • Pierce & Tobias are brothers.
  • Chase and Elaine are twins.
  • Brendan is Wattson’s grandson (and Prof Birch is Wattson’s son.)
  • Wally and Drew are first cousins.
  • Clair is Kris/Crystal’s older sister.
  • Winona and Wallace & Lisia are distant cousins.
  • Maylene is Mira’s older sister.
  • Zinnia is Sawyer’s first cousin once removed (aka Sawyer’s dad is her first cousin.)
  • Tucker & Butler are twins and the older brothers of Courtney.
  • Dawn is Looker’s daughter and Cyrus’s niece (Johanna is Cyrus’s older sister who ran away from home with her rookie Interpol bf.)
  • Barry & Bianca are cousins.
  • Verity and Cynthia are cousins.
  • Ursula is Reggie & Paul’s cousin as well as Lila’s daughter (Reggie & Paul’s mother was Lila’s late sister.)
  • Hilda & Hilbert are twins and the first cousins of Nate & Rosa who are also twins (it runs in the family). Grimsley is their uncle.
  • Wikstrom & Darach are brothers.
  • Volker and Elesa are siblings.
  • Brycen is Pryce’s son.
  • While this isn’t true in canon, Iris is Drayden’s blood-related granddaughter in L&L so I thought I’d mention it.
  • Shauntal is Cosette’s older sister and the two of them are the daughters of Fantina and Juan, who are now divorced.
  • Ghetsis has a whole ton of love children from various escapades so apart from N (who is his blood-related son in L&L) and Anthea & Concordia (adopted like in canon), he’s the father of Aaron, Sorrel, Curtis, and Sawyer (and Ginger but he’s a fankid.)
  • Calem is Alain’s younger brother and the two of them are Sycamore’s nephews.
  • Clay is Serena’s great uncle (aka Grace’s uncle).
  • While this is a canon relationship, since Emma gets semi-officially adopted by Looker, she and Dawn consider each other sisters.
  • Siebold is Korrina’s older brother.
  • Mairin is Ramos’s granddaughter.
  • Selene & Elio are twins.

Bertram with 5, 11, 22, 44?

I know you asked this just for nonsense so I’ll get it out of the way first. These will be answered from the perspective of a few years after Bertie is rescued, so after most of the plot stuff has finished and technically in the future from the time frame other asks are answered in.

05. Are they sexually confident or more of the shy type?
Lunen was Bertie’s first long-term romantic relationship and the two fumbled through figuring out sex together, neither having any experience prior to dating. After being rescued, Bertie wants to go back to the same dynamic he and Lunen had before, desperate to return to normalcy as best he can. It’s difficult at times due to Bertie’s trauma, but overall they’re able to settle into a routine and relationship that works well for both of them. I wouldn’t say he’s especially shy or promiscuous, despite liking to playfully flirt. He’s fine taking the lead or letting Lunen be in control, though he prefers to switch things up regularly.

11. What is something that would make your character fly into a rage?
Bertie tends to get especially angry when people (especially strangers) make any kind of assumptions about him, his children, his boyfriend, and/or his friends and family based on what happened to him. He’s very determined to put it all in the past (not ignore what happened, just move on) and hates when people bring it up. He especially dislikes it when people treat him like he’s fragile or say they’re sorry for him. He tends not to be the sort to go off on people when they’re annoying him, but he’ll get frustrated enough to rant to Lunen or Maela or whoever in private later.

22. What kind of tattoos, piercings, birthmarks, freckles, and other such unique physical features do they have?
As mentioned in an earlier post, Bertie pierced his ears with some school friends when he was 15 on a dare. While in captivity, Harrod made him and the other two get various other piercings for his own personal preference, as well as a tattoo of his family crest as a mark of ‘ownership’. Bertie got the tattoo removed as soon as he could after they were rescued and let all but his original ear piercings close up (though one of his cartilage piercings never ended up closing so he does occasionally wear an earring in it if he’s feeling fancy.) Otherwise, he has a birthmark behind his left ear and a few moles/freckles on his arms and torso, but nothing particularly striking.

44. Is there a particular event that would emotionally devastate your character? 
Anything happening to his children. While they were still in captivity, Bertie’s greatest fear was not his own (or Poppy and Laurel’s) safety, but the safety of his twins. He had no idea if Harrod would want to get rid of them, send them away, or hurt them. He’s extremely protective of his sons which is a big reason why he puts off returning to school in favor of being a full time father, choosing to wait so he can be there all the time for Aurel and Ophir. Each has their own traits that lead to Bertie fussing as well. Aurel tends to put on a confident show but he’s actually very sensitive and had the most tears when trying new things doesn’t go well, while Ophir was born blind, which adds its own challenges, though he’s very calm and confident (as much as a toddler can be). Aurel’s inherited Bertie’s protective streak and will fuss over his twin, though Ophir usually just does his own thing which makes Aurel upset. They’re a handful, but Bertie and Lunen don’t mind since they’re both so happy they have the chance to be a family after everything. (Grandparents Albin and Hilda and Auntie Maela love to help out with the twins as well and gladly babysit to give Bertie and Lunen a break when they need it.) This was meant to be more ‘sad what-ifs’ but it turned into hcs about the twins so… well that’s where my priorities are it seems.
