Lilia Vanrouge x Eclipsa Butterfly! Reader
I was told that I need to make a part 2, so I'm doing just that!
Slight spoilers for book 7 and SVTFOE, READER IS TARGETED AS FEMALE BAD GRAMMAR
The purple was bright coming from your chest, your umbrella in your right hand as you stared forward with the slight smile you always had, your hat created a bit of a shadow that framed your face so perfectly to him. Lilia got closer and the purple glow of the rings began to fade. He placed his hand on the glass with a smile as tears formed in his eyes.
"Hello, my love, welcome home…"
And just like that, the crystal began to crack.
Lilia blinked the tears away as he backed up in shock. The glass continued to crack and chip away until your beautiful crystal tomb finally shattered. The sound echoed through the mine as chips of the clear item went everywhere, then a soft 'thud' was heard as something landed harshly on the floor of the mine. Lilia covered his eyes with his arm so no shards would fly into his eyes.
When he finally looked over, he saw you on the floor slowly sitting up as you held your aching head. You were still in the same outfit he last saw you in. Your purple dress seemed more vibrant than ever to him, the little spades on your cheeks still held their color too. Lilia stood there and waited for you to be okay, to make sure you were okay with getting up.
"Lilia...?" He felt his heart leap into his throat when he finally heard you speak, it had been over 300 years since he's seen you, let alone hear your beautiful voice again. He couldn't help himself when he rushed to your side and dropped himself on the floor right next to you, scooping you into his arms as he buried his face into your neck just to smell you again.
"My love..." He whispered as he kissed your neck, he couldn't help himself. The years of being alone and longing for you finally came flowing out like crazy. Lilia squeezed you slightly gently, just to feel you in his arms again.
You froze at the feeling of Lilia squeeze you... Was this actually the Lilia you knew? The one you adored had long hair with red highlights in it. The man in front of you had short hair with pink highlights. Though, the ring you felt on his finger made you relax into his hold and put her arms around him.
"Hello, my love... I'm home..." You smiled and rubbed your fingers over the back of his head, feeling his undercut with your gloved fingers. You felt him kiss and breathe against your neck, as if you would vanish if he stopped. You nudged his head with your shoulder and softened your gaze at the man you had deemed as your soulmate when you first laid eyes on him.
"Darling," You spoke, "Can't I get a proper welcome back?" You grinned and leaned closer to his face as he stared at you with wide, yet adoring, eyes. Lilia took a deep breath and kissed you so hard that it knocked you both down completely onto the dirty, crystal shard ridden, floor. You laughed and had to pull him away after a while.
"My, I feel very welcomed." You cooed and poked his flushed cheek. Lilia smiled and kissed all over your face.
"Darling... How did you escape? You were in a crystal!" He looked at you dead in your eyes and huffed, "You're not in my mind, right?" He tilted his head with a teasing smirk as you laughed.
"No, no..." You sighed and began to explain, "I heard Hendrick talking about how I was a threat the day of your final date... I made our rings out magic and blessed them with the promise of a Butterfly queen." You slowly explained.
"But... I spied on the humans who did this to you, they said they had the most powerful mages on their side create the crystal to trap you in." He smiled, adoring your thinking and how smart you were with the fact that you created something so small with a huge role.
"A promise with a queen is stronger than any crystal!" You hummed as he slowly sat you up, then helped you stand up. You felt lightheaded and your legs felt like they were going to give in, so he started to carry you.
"Where are we going, hm?" You tiled your head and smiled with a kiss to his cheek.
"We're going to my dorm. You ended up in a mine around Night Raven College."
"You're in Night Raven?! My love, the one who said that it was a waste of time, is attending college?!" You laughed as he carried you out the mine while you gently pinched his cheek.
Diasomnia was a very... Interesting dorm, but it fit your style perfectly. In the lounge room, Lilia put you on the couch next to a silver haired boy that was completely dozed off. You blinked at Lilia with a confused look.
"Sweetie," She hummed, "Who...?"
"My son, Silver--Our son." You felt... Confused to say the least, then he went on about how he found and adopted Silver when he was just a little baby. Ever since then, Lilia had always told him that you were his mother, or 'mama' as Lilia put it.
"I gave him this little necklace with a copy of your portrait in it, and he went to bed with it every night from when he was six to ten!" Lilia cooed. It was weird seeing him like this; 300 years ago, Lilia always said that he never wanted to have a child, that they were extra work.
"That's... Actually, really sweet..." You mumbled and smiled at Lilia, who looked really proud of himself. You laughed and tugged him to kiss his cheek, you've missed him so much.
"Um... How long have I been in there for?" You asked very hesitantly.
"Over three hundred years, I suppose..." Lilia hummed with a small frown in thought.
"THREE... HUNDRED YEARS??" You exclaimed loudly, but not enough to disturb your newly founded adoptive child. Lilia smiled and nodded, confirming it was some time around that.
The... The war! Queen Leah--Did she...?" You looked over to the sleeping boy on the couch. You thought of your sister-in-law and her husband who were more than thrilled to be having a baby before you got crystalized. Looking closer, this boy looked more like the Dawn Knight than anything... You looked at Lilia with a tired expression, "Please don't tell me that this is the descendant of the Dawn Knight and Queen Leah." You sighed.
"A direct descendant!" He corrected.
You choked on your spit, "How is my nephew my son?!" You questioned your beloved who only laughed, "This is no laughing matter! This is confusing!" You huffed at him.
"You'll get used to it, my love." He cupped your cheek and gently rubbed it with his thumb, he then reached his hand to you and takes off your gloves to hold your hands. He traced the purple veins caused by the 'Darkness' spell you created. He lifted your hand up and kissed your knuckles, all the way up to your arms.
"Lilia!" You laughed a bit but let him keep kissing up your arm until he got to your neck. He sighed happily and lied his head there for a few minutes before the boy on the other cushion of the couch started to shift around, he was waking up.
"Mm... Father...?" He sounded so much like the Dawn Knight, but his voice was as soft as Leah's, no doubt he was their child. Lilia smiled and moved over to rub the sleepy boy's head.
"You seemed to have fallen asleep, Silver. How long have you been asleep this time?"
"I'm not too sure, father..." He mumbled and looked over to you, still half asleep, "Is it mama?" He mumbled and blinked, rubbing his sleepy eyes with heavy hands. You frowned, feeling like you were taking something away from your late sister-in-law who didn't get to have this moment, he didn't even know he was calling his aunt "mama"
"Ah, I prefer the term 'Mother'--" You really tried to correct him, but the sleepy pout of him being corrected melted your heart down to goo, "Or... 'Mama' is just fine!" You smiled and patted his head with the one hand that was still gloved, wanting to keep the other one hidden for now. Silver leaned into your touch and started to go to sleep until Lilia woke him up and started to lead him to his own room.
"Come on, sleepyhead! Time for bed, you have some training to do since it's Saturday!"
Lilia soon let you into his clutter filled room and laid you down on the bed, crawling onto you and laying with his head on your chest, sighing in pure comfort. You smiled and started to strong your fingers through his stands of hair.
"You know..." You started, "I quite like you with short hair... This undercut too..." You smiled and hummed as you felt Lilia smile against you. Lilia held you as tight as he could, not letting you slip through his fingers. Lilia positioned his head so you could rub his head a bit better. The action was nostalgic and soothing to him, he had missed this form of affection for years. Lilia pulled back and hovered over you.
"Oh, my love... Still so beautiful..." He mumbled gently, moving to kiss all over your face, slowly pulling the neck of your dress down slightly and bit down, not enough for you to bleed, but just for you to squirm. It tickled to you.
"Lilie!~" You squealed quietly and giggled. You felt him smile as he you laughed, he gave a quiet 'shh' and kept kissing, nipping, and biting. He pulled away and kissed your nose, gently squeezing your waist.
"Hush, darling, you mustn't be so loud." He smiled and looked at your lovely eyes, unable to look away...
"...Are you sure you aren't in my mind?"
The next morning, you suddenly found yourself surrounded by the boys that Lilia seemed to have raised. Malleus was this late childhood friends child that he told you he helped hatch. Sebek, you figured out quickly, was Baul's grandchild. You met Baul some years ago when you tried to meet with Lilia, Baul came to tell you that he was injured and wouldn't be able to meet up with you for a while.
Though, Silver seemed a bit shocked to see you. His stoic and sleepy expression changed as his eyes lit up and his eyebrows rose a bit. You smiled and moved over to pat his head.
"Must you look so shocked, child? I had met you last night, do you not remember?" You laughed a bit as he leaned into the touch. To you, he looked like a sleepier version of his father, almost nothing like his mother showed in his features. It was a nice feeling to know that your nephew—now turned son— seemed to know you and feel comfortable enough to be near you.
"Yes but..." He trailed off, suddenly feeling sleepy. You smiled and lightly smacked his cheek to help him finish what he was saying, "I thought that You were gone for good—Father said that you were gone!"
"Hm, it would be interesting to know where you were all this time, Lady Butterfly." Malleus gave a curious grin as he rubbed his chin. Sebek nodded and agreed with his lord while Lilia just looked at you to make sure you were comfortable with answering.
"Well," You started, "Some terrible, terrible people locked me up in a dingy old crystal deep down in a dark mine. They thought I was eating human babies." You lightened the situation with a joke about one of the many rumors spreading about you over 300 years ago, though that one was some of the few that were incredibly ridiculous.
"My love," Lilia spoke after a moment of silence, "Where is your wand?" He asked with curiosity. You would never let anything happen to your family's greatest treasure, right?
"It's right here!" You reached into the pockets of your old dress and tried to find your umbrella, but there was nothing in your pockets. You blink in panic and try to find it, "No, no, no! I don't have it! Thet must've taken it from me!" You huffed and cursed in an ancient language that not even Lilia understood fully. Lilia put a hand on your shoulder and kissed your cheek.
"Dear, I'm sure you'll find it. Maybe it's at a museum, or in the mine you were trapped in. I'll be sure to find it and your book." Right, your magic spell book too... You could only hope the blue magical being in the book wouldn't be too upset with you for being put into a crystal.
"Let's get you something to eat! I'll cook—"
Time went on and you grew closer with the boys. The three of them were unique and seemed to like you, they even tried to help you find your book... By looking in the school library. Crowley had been informed of your sudden appearance and made an arrangement for you to be a student and be in Diasomnia. He didn't even question it when Malleus offered to send in some donations as a motivator to get your paperwork done as quickly as possible.
Yourself, Silver and Sebek were in the library looking for any hints of finding a lead to where your book or wand happened to be. You were looking through the various shelves and books with Silver. You sighed as you stepped down from a shelf you were looking at up high.
"Any luck, Silver?" You asked without looking at the young boy, but noticed you weren't getting any answer back, "Silver?" You looked down and couldn't help but smile. Silver was asleep while leaning on a shelf. Despite the awkward position, he looked comfortable. You felt bad he always seemed to have these sleeping spells that he couldn't help. When you find your book, you're making sure that you find a spell to help him or make one if there wasn't already.
"SILVER! YOU'RE SLEEPING AGAIN?!" You hear Sebek storm in the book aisle you both were in and shout. You're not one to get startled easily, but Sebek's constant yelling is something that seems to get you often.
"Shh, we're in a library, Sebek!" You lightly scolded as Silver jolted awake, must've been having one of his lighter sleeps. Sebek looked a bit embarrassed when he got scolded, clearing his throat and lowing his voice down to a very aggressive whisper.
"Lady Butterfly! I have found something!" You nodded and smiled at the information of the young boy and helped Silver up on his weak feet before making your way to find what Sebek discovered.
On a cart full of old books, sat a thick book with papers spilling out of it. You gasp and rush to pick it up and put it onto a table. You smiled happily and blew off the dust from the top before you opened it. Both Silver and Sebek watched as you opened the book, confusion hit them like a truck when a small blue man with yellow robes and a magenta diamond on his forehead came floating out of the book with crossed legs.
"Glossaryck!" You greeted happily. Though the little man in the book didn't seem too happy.
"Queen (MC)" He didn't sound happy at all, "You left me!" He pouted and teared up. You knew they were fake, knowing that he didn't feel many emotions at all. You sighed and gently grabbed him into your hand.
"It isn't my fault!" You huffed and sighed, "Look, I'll make it up to you! How about some... Pudding?" You tried to bargain with the stubborn being. He only huffed and crossed his arms.
"I dunno... Maybe if you tried harder, I would forgive—Ohohoo..." He went limp with a relaxed sigh as your pointer finger gently scratched the magenta diamond on his head, it started to glow as he took in the feeling of your touch, "Maybe I do forgive you..."
You could only laugh as Silver and Sebek looked at each other with the most confused look they could ever muster up. When Glossaryck gained his composure back, he cleared his throat as he began to speak again.
"So... You're finally back, hm? How'd you get out the crystal?" He asked as he laid flat on his stomach in the palm of your hand and kicked his blue hairy legs back and forth while he looked at you.
"Lilia." You told him, just to keep the story shorter.
"Lilia..." Glossaryck spat the name put like it was the worse think that he could ever taste. You remembered the unspoked hatred both Lilia and Glossaryck had for each other. You found it quite funny every time Lilia would be near, Glossaryck would try and offer him a yadda yadda berry any chance he got.
"You're not going to be very happy then..." You mumbled as you softly laughed.
"(MC)..." Glossaryck glared.
"We're staying with him."
"I'll give you pudding and build it into a pyramid."
"...You sound different."
The meeting of Lilia and Glossaryck wasn't pleasant at all. Glossaryck sat on the Diasomnia counter, messily eating pudding while Lilia held you from behind, glaring at the magical being eating away at his mountain of pudding.
"Glossaryck." Lilia mumbled a not so pleasant greeting.
"Awmph—Wiwia (Lilia)." Glossaryck grumbled back, stuffing his face with a spoon full of pudding. It was honestly sort of disgusting how much he could eat without getting sick of it.
"Look, Glossaryck, I have no time for this. Do you know what happened to my wand when I was put in the crystal?" You begged a bit, clasping your hands together.
"Why do you need it? You can use magic without it, haven't you dipped down before? Pretty sure I taught you." He hummed and took another bite of the chocolate pudding.
"I haven't dipped down in over 300 years! Granted I know it won't take much out of me, but I would like to know where my wand is to make sure that nobody took it and is using it for wrong." You took your hat off and placed it on the counter next to Glossaryck, "I was lucky enough that the book of spells wasn't taken by any means, otherwise someone could have the power to use my spells or my mothers."
"There were a few people that found the book and tried to dip down. I tried to help them, but they all gave up after making their own spells to put into the book." He shrugged and scrapped the sides of the little container, "But they never came close to being able to use one of your mothers' spells, let alone yours."
"So, others have used my wand over the years? Where is my wand?" You huffed, "I know you know something!" Glossaryck groaned at you and put down his spoon, licking pudding out of his beard and pulled his lower eyelid.
"Glossaryck, I don't have time for your tricks." You sighed and pinched the bridge of your nose.
"I'm being so serious right now. Reach into my eye." You sighed heavily and reached a gloved hand into his eye. The sounds were very unpleasant to hear, the way Lilia gripped onto you let you know that he didn't like the sound later. You felt something in your hand and pulled it out of his eye socket.
It was a bunch of yadda yadda berries.
"For your next argument with that one." He pointed a finger to Lilia who only stuck his tongue out.
"Glossaryck." You groaned and sighed.
"Fine! Don't use them!" He took the yadda yadda berries from your hand and ate them. He turned to stone for a moment before he turned back to normal with a pleased sigh.
"Man, these are so good..."
"Glossaryck!" You scolded.
"Fine! Into my eye again." He pulled back his eyelid once more so you can stick your hand in there again. Finally, you pulled out your wand, the handle of the umbrella felt familiar and comfortable. You felt the magic flow from your wand and into your body. You closed your eyes to relax, your little spades on your cheeks started to glow a lovely shade of purple until it calmed down. It was overwhelming enough for Lilia to tightly hold you, making sure you wouldn't fall. You sighed as everything finally calmed down.
"Are you alright, my dear?" Lilia gently rubbed your sides and made sure you were able to stand on your two feet without wobbling over.
"Yeah... I'm alright." You smiled and turned your head to kiss his cheek, "How about we cause some disturbance with my All-Seeing Eye spell like old times, yes?" You laughed when he picked you up and looked at you with sparkling eyes.
"Do you think you can handle it? It used to take a bit out of you before." It was so sweet he wanted to make sure you were okay enough to practice the spell, even if he wanted to scare a few people at that moment.
"Yes, I'm well enough to perform the spell, my love." You laughed as he started to carry you up to the room that you both now share (Lilia refuses to give you your own room after getting you back). You hear Glossaryck groan in annoyance and boo at you both for leaving him there by himself, but you summon a pile of more pudding right next to him. He gives you a thumbs up as he moved away from your line of view.
You smile at Lilia as you moved your arms to go around his neck, your fingers once more threading through his short hair that you've come to adore so much. He held you tight in his arms like at any second you were going to be ripped away. You felt so happy with him, and you were even happier to spend time with the person you can safely say after 300 years that is your husband. <3
GUYS DO I HAVE POTENTIAL TO START WRITING FOR MONEY???? Probably not lol
I wanted to somehow add Meteora but really didn't know how to add her since it would be a major addition to put in, Glossaryck wasn't so much of a huge add on like she would have been in my opinion. Hope this was decent, I've been so busy with school and I'm finally on break!
