GN!Reader x the Lamb (Trope is enemies to lovers) Headcanon
"Joy always turns into sorrow. Tears always turn into laughter. The tender becomes hard over time. Friendship turns into love. Love turns into habit . Habit turns into hatred. Hatred turns into calmness. Calmness turns into curiosity. Curiosity turns into love."
Let's start with who will you be? You can be either a simple follower or a defeated miniboss on one of the levels. We will consider both options.
• With 100 percent probability, the Lamb would have found you in the forest when followers of the old faith wanted to sacrifice you to one of the bishops. Or he ransomed you from Halob when you were caught in his snare. Doesn't matter.
• Your dislike for them would be more likely not to their personality, but to the fact that they also build their cult like the bishops of the old faith.
• Throughout your entire life of trying to survive, you have formed a bad impression not only of the bishops, but also of the faith in general, since you have seen all their cruelty.
• The Lamb, in turn, disliked you because of your wariness of everything they say. They were accustomed to the fact that followers were almost always ahead of him with childlike trust, or it was easy to re-educate them. You were different.
• On pain of death, you still had to join their cult, and then the game began: Where they tried to get your complete loyalty in the faith, and you tried to be as far away from them as possible, without overstepping the boundaries.
• Your overall journey has been long.
• Not to say that you were a bad follower, on the contrary, you faithfully carried out their every assignment, but again, you had almost no faith.
• Therefore, it was a great surprise to you when the lamb began to pay more attention to you.
• The Lamb understood that you were different and this began to attract them, giving them excitement. What started as a game for them grew into real interest.
• You certainly weren’t particularly happy with this attention at first. Again, remember your past experience.
• But still, over time, you begin to get used to their strange behavior, and, albeit gradually, reciprocate.
• They were absolutely delighted.
• What started out as distrust based on fear turned into sympathy.
• Of course, things are still hard for you. There are times when you feel fear again, when it seems like nothing has changed and you are stuck in the nightmare past again.
• However, now you are not alone, they are next to you and will always help you when it seems to you that everything is bad.
• As a follower of one of the bishops of the old faith, you would be more likely to be brainwashed.
• So of course, when you were told to sacrifice your soul and kill the Lamb, you, of course, agreed unconditionally.
•And also unconditionally you have failed.
• Just like last time, your opinion on joining the cult was not asked.
• Usually, all minibosses quickly get used to the new faith.But you were different, too stubborn and, as it turned out, savvy with language.
• However, a night in the penitentiary quickly shut you up.
• Now, instead of simply insulting their and trying to kill their again, you have switched to passive aggression.
• This certainly irritated the Lamb. But as long as you dutifully carried out your instructions, they were ready to turn a blind eye to it.
• You, like other followers, are not asked to do too much, which certainly gets you out of the rut at first.
• Overall, it was like a small settlement, except for the constant sermons that you were required to attend.
• All of this together reduces your hatred.
• But what keeps getting on your nerves is the lamb with the endlessly long tongue.
• You really miss the time when they would just mockingly brush off your direct threats with a roll of their eyes. Now it has turned into endless jokes and childish behavior at some points.
• LIKE, SERIOUSLY? Are they the leader of a cult, the very chosen ones to free the one who is waiting from eternal imprisonment? WHAT THE HELL!?
• But it turns out that all of this, including the cult, including your new environment and including the Lambs themselves, is gradually helping your soul.
• Gradually, your thousand-year-old foundations of serving the old faith begin to crack, and it becomes much more difficult to hate Lamb.
• You notice that you begin to communicate more often. You definitely have common topics of conversation.
• Maybe it wasn't all that bad because eventually you actually start to open up to them.
• You still have many pitfalls in your soul, and the teachings of the old faith sometimes put pressure on old wounds, but you try not to cling to the past. You already have a beautiful present with them.
