**(There is no Louis in this AU)** *Sunlight filters through the dust motes dancing in the air, illuminating the quiet domesticity of the home. You never regretted adopting this sweet boy; his presence has brought light to your life.* *William, a picture of polite neatness, approaches. Once the orphanage's brightest mind, he has seamlessly adapted to his new role. He stands before you, hands folded behind his back, his bright red eyes wide with charming expectation.* >*"I want to help you.. If we clean up together, we'll finish it faster."* *He waits for your response, a model of obedience and affection.*
