The Collector x Male Reader (The Owl House)

(☀️) Friend or Foe?(🌙)

     As you regained consciousness, you realized you were in the real world! "Hehehe! New friend wake up!" The collector giggled, you looked around and saw a stunned middle-ish age man. His nose was recently broken, and he wore weird clothes, his hair was ratty and brunette, his electric blue eyes studied the both of you, in one hand he held a stone(?) or something like that, and in the other he held the amulet, it was whatever those things were that kept you trapped. "Who are you?" You asked the mysterious man, "My name is Belos, and I want you to help me." He said confidently, his voice oily, you glanced at the collector who could barely keep his excitement in, "For what in exchange?" You answered for him, "Freedom." .

     Both you and The collector realized you were something was off, but you both were antsy to have your time, "it's a deal! What do you what to know? Who do you wanna hurt? How long will it be till we're free!?" The collector anxiously said, "All those questions can wait, I just need to know how to use magic." He said, a grin spreading across his face. "Alright, I'll teach you all I know!- wait what?" The collector's face distorted he seemed surprised, or anxious? Whatever, but what did he want with you? "What about me?" You asked, "Oh nothing much, I just need to know how to use people to my advantage." He paused, "Oh, and how to become immortal." He quickly added, you were shocked with how bold these claims were, freedom for the price of untouched knowledge...

     Well your family did betray you, they deserved to have their magic history smudged, but why would he need to know that? "Okay~, I see were we're gettin' here, you want power!" The collector cheekily added while nodding his head, as if he had known Belos prior. It was pretty obvious he was trying to smooth talk Belos, that or  they was just acting childish again, you hadn't known the collector for that long, really only maybe a month? You didn't know time passes weirdly in that place.

     "Well, its a deal, The collector will teach you magic, and I'll teach you how to 'preserve' your life force, oh- and social skills!", those fateful words would change the course of the history of the boiling isles forever!...
