Peony Relationship HCs
~Authors Note: Sorry I Haven’t Posted In A Bit, Everyone. Lots Of Stuff Happened In My Life And I Didn’t Have The Motivation To Get On. Yeah…Great Start To The Blog /s~
👍 Peony is like a giant teddy bear! He loves to cuddle because he wants to feel the warmth of his partner! It makes him happy knowing you’re safely resting against his chest when he’s about to doze off
👍 He’s a heavy sleeper, he also sleeps like a rock. Doesn’t move too much, and it almost seems like he sinks into the bed sometimes. One time you got trapped under his arm and you had to use all your might to push him off
👍 One of his main goals is to make sure you and Peonia get along, he wants Peonia to get used to her new parent! With no awkwardness involved. He’s set up some meetings and dinners together, but Peonia ends up not coming because she ends up doing something else…poor Peony just wants his partner and his daughter to get used to eachother
👍 He’s a VERY good listener. Despite his reputation of going off, constantly moving, and his stubbornness, people often assume he would be more of a talker than a listener. But he likes listening to you. Ramble, vent, talk about whatever you want, he wants to just listen
👍 If you need advice on something serious, or you’re talking about something personal and serious, he actually stays surprisingly calm. He can definitely have times of level headedness, and will give you any advice he has. He used to give Peonia advice all the time when she was younger, he’s used to it, and wants to help
👍 If you’re younger than him by quite a bit, he’ll crack constant jokes about how you could love his old bones, while ruffling your hair
👍 Dad jokes. Oh my god. Dad jokes. Everywhere. THE KING OF THEM. Some days he’ll feel extra foolish and almost every sentence you make, he’ll find SOME WAY to counter it with a dad joke. How does he do it? The world will never know.

Crowning Sanctuary (A RaiLeon Crown Tundra fic) Chapter 1
This is a sequel to Volatile Contact and Dragon Protection. Following the events of the Darkest Day and the abuse at Rose’s hand, Raihan wants more insight and motive for why Rose did it. A chance run in with Peony may just be what he needs. However, Peony, who’d prefer not to get involved, agrees to help Leon and will only provide answers if Leon comes with him to Freezington.
“No.”
“But you’re the only one who can help.”
“What part of, ‘I never want to see Rose again’, aren’t you understanding?”
“This isn’t about you!”
Stubbornness must have been a family trait. Though he hadn’t expected to run into Peony while taking Leon to a physical therapy session, part if Raihan was glad that he did. After Rose was apprehended, there were still a few things that needed to be sorted out.
Namely, a pattern of behavior and if Leon was the only person to suffer from Rose’s violent obsession. Bede hadn’t shown signs of abuse, but he did have mental scars from Rose’s neglectful memory as well as from the pressure to show the chairman he was as good or better than Leon.
“He’s been arrested,” Peony reminded, “so that’s a closed case if I’ve ever saw one.”
“For trying to enact the Darkest Day,” Raihan stated, folding his arms, “not for… other crimes that have recently come to light.”
“Oh, please. Besides being a business man with the patience and impulse of a caffeinated Greedent, he’s a saint.”
The hint of venom in Peony’s voice did not go unnoticed. A bit of a surprise coming from Rose’s brother. However, given how little Rose talked about him, Raihan didn’t doubt that there was some tension between these two brothers.
With that in mind, the thought that Peony knew nothing about Rose’s malice due to cutting ties did occur to Raihan. Not that Raihan could blame him. In some ways, Peony had the right idea when he decided to disappear.
“A saint?” Raihan repeated. “Not in the slightest.” He looked around, making sure they were alone. “He did some things, bad things, to Leon.”
“Bad things to…?” Peony’s head tilted, confused. “What’d he do to Fluffy?”
Raihan sighed, pulling out his phone, dreading the explanation. “He… abused Leon. Harassed him and violated his trust.” He winced as he sensed Peony’s tension. “He threatened him. Almost kissed him in one instance and did so on his head in another.”
Peony froze, processing the information with stunned horror. “He wouldn’t.”
“He would.” Raihan pulled up his photo library. “I saw both instances. And though I didn’t get that photographed, I did get photos of the abuse.”
He showed Peony the scars on Leon's back and the gashes on his head from when Rose slammed his head against the window. It was sickening, despite the images only being photos. Violently shaking, Peony glared at Raihan.
“Why are you showing me this?”
“Because we need closure.” Raihan sighed as he put his phone away. “While we have enough proof to prosecute him for it, the investigator we’ve been working with thought it might provide additional proof if this abuse started when he was younger. He is speculating that this aggressive possessiveness could have started much sooner than Leon.”
Letting out an annoyed growl, Peony crossed his arms. He heavily stomped around, pacing with no real sense of direction. He didn’t know if he should be angry or horrified. Or a little bit of both.
Peony couldn’t believe his brother could do such a thing. There was no way the intellectually inclined perfectionist could do such a thing. He was too respectable. Too gifted to be so violent. Yet, the evidence was as clear as day.
“Bring me to him.” Peony requested, giving Raihan his attention. “I need to see Fluffy for myself.”

Leon’s session was just about finished when Raihan brought Peony. Though he was in good health, the doctors wanted Leon to get some physical therapy to help with residual pain after the Eternatus attack. Raihan agreed it was necessary, concerned that ignoring Leon’s injuries longer would hurt him. Leon, on the other hand, tried to deny that anything was wrong, despite the exhaustion and heavy limbs.
However, after discussing it openly and honestly, Leon agreed to get physical therapy for Raihan’s sake, not wanting Raihan to constantly worry. He also agreed to get therapy sessions after, which the specialist helped provide by requesting a therapist come in for about an hour. That way, Leon could get help process everything in one visit.
As they approached the room Leon was in, Raihan stood before Peony, stopping him from entering the room. A hand lightly yet firmly stood between them as Raihan proceeded.
“Before you see him, I want you to keep in mind that how he reacts towards you isn’t personal.” Raihan stated. “Though you are completely different, you do resemble Rose to some degree. Should he react negatively, it’s not because he hates you. It’s because he’s afraid of your brother. Understood?”
Peony was silent for a moment as he registered the statement and the implications behind it. “Understood, Tiny.”
Raihan nodded, ignoring the nickname. He entered the room first, having Peony follow with a bit of distance. Leon was sitting on a couch, his frame deflated. Eyes were rimmed with red with tears pooling around them.
“How’d it go?” Raihan inquired, sitting next to Leon. “Hug it out while working out?”
Leon chuckled as he rubbed his eyes. “Something like that.”
“He’s making progress.” The therapist confirmed, handing Leon the box of tissues on her desk. “He still feels a bit riled up about what happened. Guilty and terrified by it, but he’s starting to understand that he isn’t at fault. And that’s what I’d call progress.” She eyed Peony for a brief moment. “Who’s your friend?”
“Someone who might be able to give us additional proof to keep Rose locked up for as long as possible .” Raihan gently wrapped an arm around Leon as he turned his attention to Leon. “You remember Peony, yeah? Your predecessor that your dojo master had to fill in for and Rose’s younger brother.”
Leon’s frame jolted as he backed out of Raihan’s side hug. Shoulders tensed and eyes froze on Peony, trembling. Recognition might have been there, but fear was instilled in him.
“It’s okay, Lee.” Peony softly greeted, using his familiar nickname to help keep things calm. “I’m not going to hurt you.”
“I don’t mean to be offensive,” the therapist started, “but you shouldn’t be here.”
“Well I am.” Peony stated, standing before Leon as he spoke with the therapist. “I’m the only one who can fix what my brother did.”
Leon stood up, not liking being stood over. Raihan followed. He didn’t want to be sitting in the event Leon reacted negatively.
Not knowing where to start, Peony eyed Leon’s frame. Namely his expression and how his frame reacted. His hand lightly hovered over Leon’s cheek, tapping it just lightly enough for Leon not to flinch wildly.
Leon did, however, shift away from Peony’s hand. He inched closer to Raihan as Peony’s hand froze in place. As he moved it, arms subconsciously shot up to protect Leon’s head.
“Please don’t hurt me.” Leon squeaked. “I’ve been good. Honest.”
His eyes widened as Peony’s hand landed on his shoulder, resting at the base of Leon’s neck. Leon smacked Peony’s hand off of him, hands now protecting his throat.
“Not again, Rose! Please!”
Peony shot an apologetic gaze at Leon. It didn’t take a medical professional to know that a scar was there. Even if it wasn’t physical.
“That bastard.” Peony noted under his breathe. “Hurting the kid like that.” He looked around the room, sensing that something was off. “We’ve got to get you out of here.”
He paused for a moment, contemplating his next move. Without warning. Peony grabbed Leon’s arm, causing him to let out a hoarse gasp. Raihan wedged himself between the two, dislodging Leon from Peony. Leon latched onto Raihan, shaking violently.
Raihan shuffled around, positioning Leon in front of him so he could hold him mote comfortably. He mentally smacked himself for letting that happen. Even if he didn’t expect it. That must have effected Leon’s progress to some degree.
“You said you wanted to see him. Not attempt to kidnap him.” Raihan growled.
“I’m not trying to kidnap him.” Peony deflected, now offended. “But if you want my help, you will let me take him to Freezington. Where Leon can heal and won’t be monitored by Rose.”
