Otasune Week- Day 7- Memories
“Dave? Remember when we first met?”
“‘Course. How could I forget?”
Hal sighs.
“Do you ever... miss it?” he asks.
“Not particularly, no,” Dave says, “Why?”
“I dunno,” Hal says, “It was just... simpler then, y’know?”
“I guess,” Dave says, “No Patriots.”
“Yeah,” Hal says, pressing his face against Dave’s chest.
Dave kisses the top of Hal’s head.
“But... I don’t miss it,” he says, “I’m happy now.”
“Mm,” Hal says, “Yeah. I love you. And Sunny.
He wraps his arms around Dave.
“I do miss when Sunny was a baby, though,” Dave confesses.
Hal laughs softly.
“Yeah,” he says, “She was so cute.”
He kisses Dave softly.
“I love you,” he whispers.
“Love you two, dork,” Dave says.

Otasune Week- Day 6- Travel
Hal shifts in his seat. In the backseat, Sunny hums and kicks her little legs. Dave smiles over at Hal.
“Want me to drive?” Hal asks.
“Nah, I’m good, Dave says.
He reaches over and takes Hal’s hand. Sunny makes popping noises with her mouth. Hal turns to her. She’s looking out the window, but she turns to Hal and smiles.
“W-where... we going?” she asks.
“It’s a surprise,” Dave says.
“That means he doesn’t know,” Hal says.
Sunny giggles and hugs her doll. Dave nudges Hal, smiling.
“Asshole,” he mumbles, too quietly for Sunny to hear.
“Language!” Hal scolds him.
Dave smiles and shakes his head.
So, where are we going?” Hal asks.
“Already told you,” Dave says, “It’s a surprise.”
Hal smiles. It doesn’t matter where they go. All that matters is that the three of them are together.

Day 7 of @otasuneweek2020 : Travel
On the road again...and one day I'll figure out car views. 😅

second-to-last day of otasuneweek, today with the prompt “Travel”.
Sunny: Well, one company’s planning to have a lunar landing craft complete by 2020. Not ours, though. I’m just hoping we can get to Jupiter while Hal’s still alive. Raiden: Jupiter, huh? (Wow)…That’s pretty far.
(and Dave isn’t dead because I just don’t want him to be ❤️) @otasuneweek2020

Day 5 of @otasuneweek2020 : Tension
Sorry for the late entry!
After re-playings MGS1, I got spotted A LOT and that was all that was on my mind for this prompt. Snake always manages to keep a cool head in these situations, though I'm not sure how well Otacon wouls fare...

screencap redraw for @otasuneweek2020 , for the prompt “tension.” what’s more tense than your future husband telling you that you accidentally made a nuclear weapon!!

Otasune Week- Day 5- Tension
It's really not that serious. Just a little cold. But Hal tends to over-estimate how serious things are.
Dave gets out of bed. Hal appears in the room.
"What are you doing?" he demands.
"Nothing," Dave says, "Just needed to get up."
Hal frowns.
"That's all I've been doing. I'm fine, Hal."
"Please, just lay back down," Hal says.
"Hal, I feel fine," Dave snaps, "What's your problem?"
Hal starts tearing up, and Dave immediately regrets his words.
"Hal, I-" he starts, before suddenly passing out.
Dave wakes up on the floor. He's covered by a blanket, and his head is in Hal's lap.
"You passed out," Hal says. He sounds tired.
"Sorry," Dave mumbles.
He sits up and instantly gets dizzy. He rests his head against Hal's shoulder.
"You've got a fever," Hal says quietly.
"You were right," Dave says "...My body hurts."
"I-I could make you soup," Hal says, sounding unsure.
"Hal," Dave says, "I'm sorry for what I said."
"Oh, um," Hal says, surprised, "Uh, it's- it's no problem."
Dave smiles tiredly.
"Mind helping me up?" he asks.
"Oh! Right!" Hal says, "Sorry, I-"
"Hal," Dave says.
"Yeah. Yeah, sorry," Hal says quickly.
He stands and pulls Dave to his feet. Dave leans against him. Hal stumbles a little, and Dave feels bad. They make it to the bed. Dave collapses onto it, pulling Hal with him. Hal kisses his forehead and starts to get up.
"Hal," Dave says.
"Hal turns back to him.
"Thank you," he says, "For taking care of me."
"Uh, yeah," Hal says, smiling, "No problem."
He touches Dave's head softly and hurries out of the room.

Otasune Week- Day 4- Family
Hal is terrified. He stares blankly at his computer screen. Sunny's asleep in his arms, and he's terrified. Of her, and for her.
Maybe he made a mistake, deciding to take her in. How could he possibly be a good father, especially considering his own father? It's not too late. He can still take her somewhere else, to another family who knows hoe to take care of her. But the thought of just... abandoning her makes him feel sick.
"Hal."
Hal jumps. He must be more tired then he thought.
"Sorry," Dave says, "Did I scare you?"
"Um, a little," Hal admits.
Dave laughs softly. He moves to Hal's side.
"What's up?" Hal asks.
Dave runs his fingers through Hal's hair.
"When was the last time you slept?" he asks.
"Um..." Hal can't remember.
Dave sighs. He takes Hal's hand and pulls him gently from his chair to the couch.
"What's wrong?" he asks.
Hal presses his face into Dave's neck.
"I don't know what I'm doing," he mumbles, "With Sunny."
"I don't think anyone does," Dave says.
"My father-"
"Hal, my father tried to kill me. Twice," Dave says gently, "But we aren't our fathers. We'll be better."
Sunny sighs in her sleep. Dave puts a hand on her head.
"Do you think... we'll be good fathers?" Hal asks.
"Yeah. We'll do our best," Dave says.
He kisses the top of Hal's head.
"Thank you," Hal mumbles.
Dave shakes his head.
"Dork," he whispers.

Day 4 of @otasuneweek2020 : Family
Tried doing a pallette experiment with more sepiatone colors.
Also, back when Metal Gear Rising was in the concepting stages, there was news that it would take place story-wise between MGS2 and MGS4. I was really looking forward to rescuing baby Sunny and delivering her to Dave and Hal like the cyborg stork that Raiden secretly is at heart. Ah, well, fanart will have to suffice for now.
