Dealing with nightmares with Douxie
You had been traveling with the trio, part of their oddball band whilst they avoided Bellroc and Skrael, who sought after Nari. You were all very open and physical with each other, since all of you were riddled with ptsd and anxiety from past trauma, so touching wasn't uncommon in the group. You were all comfortable with hugs, hand holding, cuddling when you get momentary peace, but what you had with Douxie was more then just comforting each other like you did for Archie and Nari. You two were closer then either of you would like to admit, and definitely far too close for it to be safe. The risks were there, and so was the denial. No matter how many time Archie teased you two about being more then friends, it was always met with the same reaction: awkward laughter, brushing it off as a joke, stepping away from each other like it could change the undeniable attraction between you two. It didn't. But it was too scary to admit it, and far scarier to imagine losing each other after admitting it.
He is charming, honorable, hardworking, and deeply loyal. He often leans into a laid-back, "rock-and-roll" vibe but proves to be an exceptionally powerful and capable master wizard when his friends are in danger. Though physically a 19-year-old, he is actually centuries old (born in 1098). He has straight black hair featuring his signature vibrant blue/indigo streaks, and hazel eyes that glow bright blue whenever he taps into his magic. He channels his sky-blue magic through an enchanted bracelet on his wrist, which can also transform his staff into a glowing electric guitar
Archie (Archibald) is a wise, sarcastic, and loyal dragon-familiar who mostly takes the form of an anthropomorphic black cat. As the magic assistant and best friend to the wizard Douxie Casperan, he can shapeshift into any animal but prefers being a feline, and is the son of the giant dragon Charlemagne the Devourer. Archie is highly intelligent, somewhat snobbish, and often acts as the voice of reason when Douxie gets himself into trouble. He fiercely dislikes being called a "talking cat" or an "assistant," preferring to be recognized as an equal partner
Unlike her ruthlessly destructive siblings (Bellroc and Skrael), Nari possesses deep empathy and a love for humanity, and she believes that magic and mortals can coexist in harmony, becoming disgusted by her siblings' zealous and genocidal methods. Her connection to the world is so strong that she feels the pain and sorrow of countless lost souls as if they were her own, a nature-loving ancient sorceress in every way. She is sweet, compassionate, and cares deeply about protecting humanity and magical creatures
you had all fallen asleep almost immediately, but Douxie had awoken at perhaps two in the morning due to a nightmare. He shot up quickly, cold sweat beading on his skin as he took in short gasps of air
on instinct, he reaches for you, grabbing your arm and clutching it tightly, making sure you were there
