#brain: make ardyn or cor trans or make it into that secret lady ardyn fic youve always wanted to write
Yes yes these are glorious options, but also consider. Because part of the fun of a ‘OC/SI is this character’s unknown kid’ is the reactions of said parent. And maybe. Just maybe. We could have Cor and Ardyn both reacting to the fact that they have a kid that they never knew existed. Because, after all -
Remember just who is Ardyn’s ‘Prompto’? His definitely-not-a-friend-but-knows-the-most-about-me-more-then-anyone-in-the-world? Who is probably his personal doctor, has access to all the biological samples, and canonically tinkers with cloning and genetic engineering?
Verstael freaking Besithia, that’s who.
Who is also *just* the right shade of bugnuts to try and combine the literal Accursed’s DNA with that of the Lucian King’s ‘pet Immortal’, to 1) Create the most deadly entity on the face of the planet! and 2) See what would happen, for SCIENCE!
…he also views said test tube baby as a ‘success!’ after said subject successfully escapes the labs at a precociously young age and vanishes without a trace.
Ardyn and Cor, on separate continents, just about swallow their tongues when the information hit their respective desks (one obtained from Verstael breaking into Ardyn’s office to rant about his ‘success in creating the Ultimate Warrior!’ and one from spy reports on said rant) that they have a son.
And thus, the hunt is on.
(Said SI/OC is very unimpressed and probably applies for. I don’t know, a library position or work in a bookshop in Lestallum or something. Something quiet, with Lots Of Soothing Books, where they don’t have to interact with people very much. Like. At all. I’m seeing them practically being Good Omens Aziraphale-like in how very much they Do Not Want To Sell/Loan Books To Actual People. They make full use of the Leonis Deadpan Glare and the Izunia Bullshitting Skills to keep those books on the shelves.)

Yes!! Yes!! I adore the idea of Verstael just. Deciding to tinker with the DNA of two of some of the most deadly people on Eos to see if he can create a sort of- Ultimate Warrior. Just, that’s such a thing him to do.
Also why do I feel like this OC Insert would suit being named Artemis? I feel like thats a good name for him.
So Artemis it is! And I’m just. Seeing Cor and Ardyn meeting each other half way to Lestallum and they both just. Stare at each other and there’s a tension that’s born of ‘he’s an enemy so i should kill him but also /i have a kid to think of now fuck what would my kid think if i murdered their other parent?/’
I can totally see him preferring the solitude of books and hot drinks and warm things to like. interacting with people. he hates interacting with humans and he’s pretty bad at it, the izunia charm went out the window and got replaced with the awkward teenage leonis gene.
that being said, he probably made up a fake parent that he says checks on him but whoops he’s like 16 and has been living on his own for the past like seven years.
(Also now i’m just, seeing Cor and Ardyn showing up at the bookstore he works at run by a man who is more a collector than bookseller and none of the books are actually for sale but the tea and baked goods are and Artemis takes one look at the Immortal and Ardyn /at his workplace/ and goes NOPE.
He cannot NOPE out of there however, as his parents are blocking the entrances and he has a feeling trying to flee would be a Bad Idea.)
(he totally winds up trying to warp past them but Ardyn catches him mid air. just. plucks artemis out of the air as he comes out of the warp the way you catch a cat thats trying to escape getting its nails trimmed.
‘where did you learn that?’ ardyn is intrigued
‘hell,’ artemis says blandly, ‘now let me go’)

Artemis the Hunter, lol. Except this Artemis really tends to avoid hunting - yes yes, he does it on occasion to raise some extra cash, but it’s not his profession/life ambition. It’s a good name! Although - snickers. Artemis might. not have been thinking about the mythological Artemis when he chose that name, but rather Artemis Fowl II, from the Artemis Fowl books.
The Izunia charm is not in the picture, but the Izunia Bullshitting Skills are. Pair that with the Leonis Deadpan, and you get someone who tells you the most outrageous things with a totally straight face, and you honestly can’t tell whether or not he’s yanking your chain.
Artemis has found a Safe Place Of Books where he is gainfully employed, is working his way through an online degree, and Will Not Put Up With This Bullshit, Thank You. His attempt to escape the Oncoming Drama was a totally rational response!
(Also, he tends to avoid the Tomb of the Mystic like the plague. Artemis Does Not Want To Think about what might happen to him if that family reunion ever takes place. As it is, he’s already picked up the blade of the Wanderer - and that was by accident.)
Artemis is a Surly Cat as his parents try to figure out what to do with him - and with each other. The only thing his parents agree on is that their son cannot live like this.
