A big part of the fandom *HCs SkekNa as reckless, completely crazy, irredeemable, abusive or not caring if he has a mate, a huge creepy pervert, a bad parent, not smooth at all*
Me *has him develop a Long John Silver/Jim Hawkins relationship with an orphaned preteen named SkekEi in the Natived AU after she got hired in the castle as his official assistant and trainee and he ends up as her guardian*
(The fact he still is a huge yandere simp for SkekSa aside ; at least now that's not his only trait in our mind, dracocheesecake and I)
SkekNa was middle aged here so that's why his clothes (he loved fur back then) and his colors are different, he wasn't totally old yet but Skeksis society being around beauty and hedonism, Skeksis getting their first wrinkles have to wear big clothes to hide their bodies that are no longer considered perfect by the big public. He already had lost all his hair. By "now" when he is old SkekEi is a part of the court who often visits him
The grey thing is her down. Being a preteen she is no longer fluffy but didn't completely lose it yet
