Bad... Dads? ~ Limited Life AU
30 Parte Ongoing ~ "Nobody has been a yellow life for 11 years, 4 months and 27 days"
"Yes, but we've been close, Grian" ~
11 years ago, the players banded together and agreed to refuse to delight the Watchers with a show. They decided on peace over fighting, and the Watchers weren't happy.
They decided upon a new form of torture, attachment. Time still ticked down for them, so the Watchers thought it would be interesting to send them something they'd never watch grow up: a child.
They loved their new children dearly, but knew they couldn't be there with them for most of their lives.
Until Grian discovered that the children had infinite time, but only one life. He found a way to get his child to send him time so he could live longer. He shared this with the other players, and they've been almost immortal ever since. The only catch was they couldn't take too much time off of their children without them getting close to death.
Grian became a Timekeeper, and all the other players began working to raise their kids and make a new civilisation, a new way of life.
Luckily, the Watchers were still entertained. The rest of the players? They won't be entertained much longer.
