This is an idea I've been working on for a while now and decided to post it while I try to get over my writer's block for my other HP/DGM crossover
A/N: I own nothing
It was a bitterly cold and snowy winter night in London. The wind was sharp and blew the snow into deep drifts while easily cutting through even the thickest of jackets.
'Why the hell am I out here again?' wondered Tyki as he pulled his black overcoat around himself a bit tighter when the wind picked up. He was walking down the streets of London and it was almost eleven at night. He walked past a tavern and heard laughter and merrymaking from within.
'Right, I needed a break from my crazy family' It was New Years Eve and his family had been getting a bit crazier than normal the closer it had gotten to midnight. So he had decided to step out for a moment and now he was deciding that it probably wasn't the best of ideas.
'Definitely not the best of ideas. I'm freezing my ass off.' He turned down the street that would take him back to the Noah family townhouse before clutching his overcoat closed as the wind picked up and ripped off his top hat.
"Hey!" Tyki quickly gave chase to his hat as it was blown down the street before getting blown into an alley. Following his hat into the alley, Tyki managed to catch up to his hat and he had just stooped to pick it up when he saw something that made his heart almost stop. Laying in a snow drift behind a trash can was a child, probably one or two years of age. They were wrapped up in a pale purple blanket but it seemed to do little to protect them from the cold because they were pale and their lips were blue. Abandoning his hat, Tyki picked up the child and checked them over, relief flooding him when he realized that they were still breathing. Wrapping the child in his overcoat, Tyki quickly retreated from the alley and all but ran back home. Not wanting to face his family and any potential awkward questions, he snuck through the back door and into the kitchen, only to come face to face with the Millennium Earl.
"Tyki-pon?" said the Earl as he tilted his head in confusion "What were you doing outside?" The Earl was currently in his human form but Tyki knew that, even in this form, it was impossible to lie to the Maker. The only difference between the two forms was that the Earl was faster and stronger in this form.
"Please don't call me that." said Tyki as he held the child closer "And I was taking a walk."
"In this weather?" said the Earl before noticing Tyki's movements "What do you have there?"
"I... I found a child in the snow." said Tyki "I couldn't leave them there. My conscious (who sounded oddly like Joido) wouldn't let me." The Earl set the mug he had been holding down on the counter before moving closer to peer at the child. He narrowed his eyes before murmuring gently in a language Tyki didn't understand as he touched the child's cheek. Color returned to the child's face and the blue vanished from their extremities. The child stirred before their eyes opened and Tyki found himself ensnared by a pair of bright green eyes. Those eyes captured his his heart and Tyki could practically hear Joido crooning in the back of his mind. It only took him a minute to realize why Joido was doing that. Deep within those bright green eyes, he could see the sleeping memories of the Noah Family.
"Tyki-pon?" said the Earl, reminding Tyki that he wasn't alone.
"There are old memories in their eyes." said Tyki as he looked up at the Earl "And Joido seems to be quite taken with them."
"Let me see them." said the Earl as he held out his hands. Tyki reluctantly handed the child to him and the Earl cradled the child in his arms.
"I do believe that it's safe to say that she is definitely a girl." said the Earl as he fingered the wisteria purple blanket that was still wrapped around the child before looking into their eyes. His amber eyes lit up and a wide, joyful smile spread across his face before he began to chuckle.
"Earl?" questioned Tyki.
"I know why Joido is so taken with her." said the Earl as he looked at Tyki "She holds Joido's sleeping memories. She is, technically, your heir." The girl reached for Tyki and the Earl obligingly handed her back to the Noah of Pleasure, removing the blanket from her in the process. Tyki awkwardly balanced her on his hip as the Earl picked up a plush black dog that had fallen from the folds of the blanket.
"Pa'foo'." said the girl as she reached for the toy, which the Earl handed to her. She hugged the toy before she buried her face in Tyki's shoulder.
"Well, now we know that she's old enough to talk." said Tyki.
"And we know her name." said the Earl as he showed Tyki the corner of the blanket. There on the corner was a name embroidered with golden thread in beautiful cursive letters.
"Elysia." read Tyki before looking at the girl "What a pretty name you have, menina." The girl looked up at him shyly from under her black bangs.
"She is a pretty little papilio." cooed the Earl.
"So are we keeping her?" asked Tyki.
"Most certainly." said the Earl "And, since she's the next in line to be the Noah of Pleasure, you will be responsible for her, Tyki-pon." he gave Tyki a toothy grin "Congratulations, Tyki, you get to be a daddy!~" He snatched Elysia from Tyki's grasp as the Noah of Pleasure fell to the ground in a dead faint. Elysia looked at Tyki before looking up at the Earl.
"Sleep?" she asked.
"Yes, little papilio, Tyki-pon is going to sleep for a little bit." said the Earl as he balanced her on his hip "Now, let's see about getting you a cot set up in Tyki-pon's room."
