‘You want a what?’ (Rick x Lucille)

Send ‘You want a what?’ for my muse’s reaction

"I fuckin' know, right?" Lucille sighed. As shocked by her own words as Rick seemed to be. "I caught myself off guard."

Her glance went over to the baby monitor, where Judith was moving around in her sleep, having turned on her belly and seemingly trying to crawl. She'd freaked out the first time she'd seen her do that, her only knowledge of babies being the "don't let them turn in their sleep" scary stories that everyone without kids seemed to have drilled in their brains, until Carl and Rick had convinced her Judith was fine. Now she thought it was adorable.

She looked back to Rick. "I've never wanted a baby before," Lucille confessed. "I mean, I wanted kids. Negan didn't. So I guess I just convinced myself that I wouldn't be able to handle a baby anyway. The terrible twos and all that shit. I've always gotten along better with teenagers anyway so it wasn't somethin' I dwelled on. But Judith is... she's fuckin' amazing, I love her, even when she's being a– well, a baby."

Usually when she talked about something this much to someone else, it was to talk herself out of it. But Lucille felt like she was just digging herself a deeper hole. She didn't mind; however, the little smile on Rick's face wouldn't have helped convince her of not wanting a baby anyway.

"I don't know if that smile means you agree or you're about to make fun of me."

Now Rick looked a little hurt. "When have I made fun of you?"

"Hey, I used to be married a man-child," she pointed out, lifting her hands. "Be patient with me."

"I think it's sweet– what you're saying, I mean."

"Not Negan?"

"Definitely not Negan," he snorted.

Rick leaned forward, pressing a kiss to Lucille's lips that she leaned into. A tension she didn't know she'd been carrying abandoned her shoulders.

"Maybe when Judith is a little older and doesn't need her crib anymore."

Lucille hummed. "That sounds good to me." a mischievous grin pulled at her lips. "But that doesn't mean we can't start practicin' how we're gonna make the baby now, before the kids wake up, does it?"

B   :   BOUQUET.   does your muse like flowers? which ones are their favourite?

She's more of a chocolates gal than a flowers gal but she'll accept them if someone gifts them to her, unless they're roses, Lucille hates roses, both because of the smell and because Negan would bring her roses whenever he did something he knew would make her mad.

E   :   EMBRACE.   does your muse like hugs? what are their hugs like?

Lucille is more of a shoulder or hand squeezes and kisses than a hugs person, but she does enjoy them if they come from someone she loves and trusts. When she initiates a hug it tends to be because whoever is getting hugged by her is in need of comfort or they worried her sick, so she squeezes the soul out of them.

K   :   KISS.   is your muse a good kisser? why / why not?

Lucille is a very good kisses. She loves kissing, it's romantic, it's sexy, what's there not to love about kissing. Whenever she kisses someone, she makes sure that kiss communicates what she's feeling.

X   :   XOXO.   does your muse use / like pet names?

She uses them a lot but depending on each it means something different from her. "Sweetheart" tends to be condescending, "sugar" is for platonic affection, especially towards children, and "darling" for her significant other. But she'll also use nicknames that are specific for each person, like "cowboy" for Carl, "angel" for Judith.

Y   :   YOURS.   does your muse get protective easily?

Depends on the person. Her loved ones will always be stood up for. When it comes to strangers, Lucille has a soft spot for kids, she will get protective of them if there isn’t a familiar there to care for them. She also despises those that prey on the vulnerable and weak, and will stand up for those that can’t stand up for themselves.

G   :   GIFT.   is your muse good at gift - giving or do they struggle to get it right?

Lucille only ever gives gifts to those that she cares about and when she cares about someone she makes sure to know what they like and need, and so she tends to be very good at gift-giving. Still, she struggles sometimes because no gift is good enough for her significant other.

I    :   I LOVE YOU.   does your muse find ‘i love you’ easy or hard to say?

It's quite difficult for Lucille to say I love you. Last two she said said it to were her husband and best friend, who cheated on her and fucked her husband respectively, so it's come to a point where she'd rather show than say it, at least if she doesn't say it out loud it's not so humiliating if the person turns out to not love her as much as she loves them.

(from betaofthedead. for lucille.)

Beta noticed Lucille struggling to reach the board at the top of the window. Earler they had decided the saloon would be better with some light in it, so here they were, taking the boards down. He shifted over to where she was, looming from behind. His hands reached up, hands curling around the board that had been nailed sturdy into the wall. Any averge person would need a hammer and at least two or three people to pull the thing free, but with a slight tug and then another, he pulled the board off effortlessly. He huffed and looked down at Lucille, still standing close behind her, "Ask next the time you cannot reach something."

Impress my muse

@betaofthedead

Lucille was mentally cursing herself for being the one to point out that this place could definitely use more light now that they actually had to get down to business and make it happen. She had almost finished with the window, but the last board at the very top was just too fucking high for her to reach, still she tried, barely managing to graze it with her fingers as she muttered a trail of curses under her breath. She was able to touch it with the hammer, but not in any way that allowed her to remove it.

Whether because she'd been too focused on cussing out that stupid piece of wood and whoever put it there, or because Beta was actually stealthier than his size let on, she didn't notice that her gotten so close until his arms appeared in her view.

She startled, her back bumping against his torso as she moved back, looking up to find him focused on the board, which he was able to remove not only with his bare fucking hands, but with minimal effort. It took her a moment to swallow back the not that had so comfortably settled in her throat, keeping words from coming out, and when they did, they didn't sound the way she meant then to.

"Fuck me," she huffed, brows furrowing and cheeks turning a dusty pink shade as she turned to face him and push both her hands against his torso. "You could've done that the whole time and you were just lettin' me make a fuckin' fool of myself?! Fuck you!"

🌻- Lucille & Rick.

Send 🌻 for five AUs involving our muses

AU where Lucille was temporarily stationed with CRM as a sort of show of trust between the CRM and the Commonwealth by exchanging medical for a bit, and she helps Rick escape the CRM and get back to his family.

No Apocalypse AU where they meet because she's Carl's new history teacher but also Rick has been called to her house over verbal domestic disputes in the past enough times in the short time she and Negan lived in Georgia together before divorcing that he recognizes her.

Any AU where they meet in earlier seasons, I'm a sucker for those.

(from betaofthedead. adoration meme, for lucille)

Once more they were passing a bottle mindlessly, perhaps that was what called for such a strange change of subject. When he realized it was empty, he rolled the bottle aside grunting. “I only indulge you because I am curious of your recklessness.” Had he a true sense of humor past morbid pecks at insecurities, then that statement would be. He huffed a subtle chuckle at the gaze cast his way.

“You are persistent,” he began, “not so easily deterred from your.. ideas.” Although his husky voice is almost scolding, an admiring gleam in his eye told another story.

What’s the one thing your muse adores about mine?

@betaofthedead

Lucille was starting to think that perhaps she'd drank more than she should have because suddenly the giant beside her's words were catching her off guard, and that wasn't something that happened often, mostly because Beta didn't speak often and when he did it tended to be cryptic. She'd gotten used to expecting cryptic shit from him. Not this.

"Well, fuck," she chuckled, it quickly turned into a hum. "Either I'm drunker than I thought it you're complimentin' me."

She leaned to the side, bumping her arm against his as a grin pulled at her lips. Lucille took the bottle from him once again, taking a sip before pretending to study the bottle.

"Perhaps it's the booze making you a softy. I'll keep that in mind," she teased. "There's this one person at the commonwealth that makes some amazing chocolate liquor. Strong as it's sweet, I might just bring you a bottle next time just to see what else I can get outta you."

@betaofthedead

[ 👓 ] does your muse tend to judge others, or are they more open-minded?

It depends on the person. If you're an asshole, she's gonna judge you hard and very vocally without as much as a pinch of shame while doing so. If not, then she will keep her opinions to herself in the case that the person does something she might not agree with.

[ 🧭 ] does your muse consider themselves a good person? why or why not?

Lucille considers herself a good person. She does her best to stay in her lane and go about her life without ruining anyone's day unless they really deserve to have their day ruined, and that is —in her opinion— what makes a good person.

[ 🤱 ] does your muse want to have children? why or why not?

Lucille would love to have a children. She didn't get to have them before the turn for many reasons, and now that she has a pretty stable living situation, she only needs someone to take that next step with. Lucille loves kids, and even if she's a bit scared of other people's babies and gets along better with teenagers, she would really like to have one of her own.

[ 👊 ] does your muse favour nonviolence? will they be violent if needed? do they revel in violence?

There was a time when Lucille revealed in violence. She found Negan's proneness to getting into fights quite charming, a part of her still finds the concept of men fighting to be attractive; but she knows that's not a good mindset to have and is working on it. Lucille'd rather fights be avoided if they can be, but if not, she won't be getting in the way to stop it. She can be violent if needed, but she's more of a quiet, calculating sort of violent.

[ 🫀 ] does your muse make decisions with their head or their heart? perhaps a bit of both?

Lucille tends to make decisions with her heart, but after everything that's happened she tries her best to make decisions with her brain more because many of the choices she made before the turn haven't ended too well for her.

[ 👓 ] does your muse tend to judge others, or are they more open-minded?

It depends on the person. If you're an asshole, she's gonna judge you hard and very vocally without as much as a pinch of shame while doing so. If not, then she will keep her opinions to herself in the case that the person does something she might not agree with.

[ 🌊 ] does your muse have any specific fears? is there a reason why they fear these things?

Lucille is afraid of getting sick, the reason is that prior to getting cancer she was always a very healthy person and to suddenly be faced with such a serious illness made her realize the full extent of how easily her life could end in a slow and awful way; she's also afraid because she doesn't know if she is healthy healthy, having not had any chances to get checked since the apocalypse happened, she doesn't know if her immune system is strong enough to handle any kind of sickness.
