    Summary

    Daemons were the manifestations of one’s soul and magic. Bright, shimmering rainbow wisps that followed children around, invisible to the eyes of any without magic. Unique, saturated animals that represented not only soul and magic, but one’s personality and goals, flickering at the corners of a muggle’s sight.

    It’s not healthy to find a young Wixen with a dull Daemon. It’s worrying to find a Daemon who entered its phase of shifting before normal, or one that has retained their malleability long after they should have settled. It’s more alarming when you find a Wix without their Daemon, or a Daemon without their Wix.

    But what would Harry know of Daemons, when there’s no one around to see his own?

     

    Or; Daemons are embodiments of a soul and it’s magic. They’re reflections of their humans, like humans are reflections of their soul. Even if you can’t see something going wrong on the human, something will definitely be different about the Daemon. Unfortunately, the magical world tends to be willfully blind when it comes to their boy savior.

    I've overhauled the Daemon lore so don't worry about needing to know it :)

    Summary

    Caesar's eyes glanced over her, full of glee and excitement that she did not share. Her own eyes glassy as she glanced at the audience.

    "Johanna, I see tears in your eyes. Could that be because you've spend the past years caring for your invalid father?"

    She pushed the tears further to the surface as she nodded. "He lost his leg several years ago, my brothers provide for us and I take care of the home"

    "Now isn't that beautiful folks? Such a sweet, gentle soul she is" Caesar claimed as the crowd roared while a tear rolled down her cheek.

    They mindlessly ate up the story she fed them, the harmless girl from District 7 - who played the violin and smiled like the world wasn't about to end.

    Perhaps because, in Johanna's mind, she'd already won.

    ---

    Johanna Mason's backstory as we never got it in the books. Following her from the age of 14, all the way to the end of the war - and everything in between.

    Summary

    Everyone agreed that he'd been such a promising kid before he'd settled. But that hadn't lasted long: his soul had declared herself to be entirely the wrong sort of animal. He was not a home-loving house mouse; nor even a house sparrow, happily rubbing shoulders with his brothers; he was weasel-souled, and that meant an uncomfortable husband.

    Or,

    In a world where your soul is represented as an animal familiar, half-foots have mouse and sparrow souls - and are nearing extinction. Chilchuck Tims has a least weasel daemon. This is the first stone in a landslide.

     

    This a DaemonAU and standalone companion to His Delicious Materials. No prior knowledge of His Delicious Materials or His Dark Materials required.

    Summary

    Chilchuck erupted from his bedroll in one smooth movement that carried through his body into his hand, almost as if he’d been laying awake the whole time and plotting exactly how he was going to do it; and before Palinode understood anything, he had bounced a boot very hard off her human’s head.

     

    His Dark Materials/Daemon AU.

     

    In a setting where human souls take the form of separate animals, everyone knows that dog-souls are servants or soldiers - and Laios hadn’t wanted to be either.
