♧ closed starter for LILITH AINE & MARCELLINE FONTAINE ; @lilithaine @marcellinefontaine
AFTER MEETING THE VAMPIRE / FAIRY HYBRID ; atlas didn’t waste much time in tellings mars about her . there was something about her , something that continued to draw him in . he hadn’t told mars everything , just about how he met someone who peaked his interest . it was new for the male mermaid . he didn’t often get close to people , yet lilith was someone he WANTED to get close to . the more time he spent with her , the more he found himself wanting to spend even more time with her . wanted to get to know her better .
it wasn’t long after that mars seemed to start sharing her own stories about someone she met . while it took the two awhile to figure out , the dots all started to connect AFTER new years . the person the two had met , the one they both seemed to be so fond of , was the same person . they found it both amusing and worrisome , neither wanted to get in the way of the other’s happiness . yet neither wanted to stop getting close to the hybrid . it didn’t seem to change much between them , they weren’t upset with each other and both kind of just wanted to see what would happen next .
atlas was a little excited about what could come next – though he tried to play it cool . deciding to spend the day with mars , like he normally did , he still reached out to lilith to see what she was going to be doing . when she revealed that she had no plans and asked him out , he instead invited her over to hang out with him and mars . mars and atlas had known that they were talking to the same person , but lily didn’t know that they knew or that they were such close friends . so it didn’t come as a surprise when mars told him to invite her over so they could ALL talk . it was the knock on the door that made atlas slightly nervous . he didn’t want lilith to get the wrong idea , to think that they were cornering her or something . he cared for her and clearly he loved mars ––- guess he just wanted to know what they all wanted . if he needed to back out , he would . as long as both woman ended up happy .
“ wow – ” he said when he opened the door , once again being reminded of how awestruck he got around the hybrid . “ i mean , hi . ” he greeted , smiling brightly at her before bringing her in for a hug . “ so , uh , there’s something you should know – ” he started . for a man who’s GREAT with words , he seemed at a loss in that moment . he just wanted to give her a heads but of who exactly his friend was that she was about to ‘ meet ’ .
