Description
Darkleer/AradiancestorIn my head, they are creepy and sad and also weirdly sweet.
Ancestors (C) Andrew Hussie of Homestuck

The following is headcanon, you should ignore it:
I see the whole ordeal as having been all kinds of super creepy sweet, very La belle et la bête - if anyone's ever even seen that. It's a 1946 French film version of Beauty and the Beast that is creepertastic.
Darkleer remains as controllingly creepy and overprotective as his descendant, and keeps Aradiancestor (I've been calling her Evocator Ebonveil) locked in his castle compound to protect her. It doesn't really go over well at first.
He's scarred to hell and back from defending her. I like to imagine she's the one to patch him up whenever he drags himself back. While he's away, or holed up in his workshop, she goes exploring the inner caves of his hive, looking for fossils.
The prosthetic legs are the result of the one time she did disobey him. Highbloods messed her up nicely, so Darkleer flips his shit and earns his title as Expatriate. He makes her a new set of legs because he can't stand the thought of her not being able to walk/wander/dance like she used to.
I can't decide if it's true love or Stockholm Syndrome. But considering Equius, it's probably both.

N- that's um, quite all right. I think it is quite a nice life there, and you should keep it. My headcanon really isn't worth that much; it'll probably get Jossed any day now.
And I don't know if I'd call him lovey, but there is a certain creepy sweetness to him. In that obsessive kidnapper sort of way.

I love your headcanon for Darkleer and Aradia's ancestor. And just...his scars; they're so detailed and harsh-looking in comparison to her skin, which makes for nice contrast.
In short, I love everything about this.
