❝ *heart eyes* ❞ | Luaster

“Yeah, isn’t she adorable?” Lui asked, bouncing Tallulah on his lap as he sat next to Aster on the picnic blanket they’d spread out at the park. Sure, Tallulah was still too little to really eat anything but bottles, but she was having fun escaping his lap and crawling around, and between he and Aster, he never let her get too far away. He was pretty sure there were more baby toys scattered on the blanket than there was food, anyway; like everything else in his life, Tallulah seemed to have taken over the picnic not-date with Aster, and he kind of didn’t even mind.

Especially not when she was looking at him like that. He knew it probably wasn’t him, it was probably just the adorable little girl that Serenity had brought back to Walt with her after the holidays that had Aster so captivated, but he couldn’t help but with that it was him, just a little bit, that had her looking so... loving? Was that the right word for it? The word scared the shit out of him, but it was kind of true, too. He’d thought he was over the whole love thing forever, but if he was going to change his mind, if he was going to make an exception... it sure as hell would be for Aster Olympus.

“Here, do you want to hold her?” he asked, terrified by his own thoughts. Who even was he anymore? He had been so sure he was reckless fuckboy Lui Kapu for the longest time, but suddenly he was helping parent a baby, he was going to classes and doing well, and he was sitting here imagining what it would be like if he had feelings for Aster and she had them back and maybe, just maybe, they did something about it. It was enough to scare the shit out of him, but it didn’t make his skin crawl like it might have at this same time last year... and he turned his focus back to Tallulah instead of to the girl whose eyes he was starting to think maybe really were on him instead of the baby.

“Who’s a good girl? Let Auntie Aster hold you now, she’s probably a lot snugglier than I am, and if you don’t wiggle too much I’ll sing your favorite lullaby while she has you,” Lui cooed close to the baby’s ear, pressing a kiss to her weird baby-fluff hair before gingerly passing her to Aster, not even realizing that by the time Aster was the one cradling the baby instead, he was the one making the heart eyes instead... and he wasn’t sure which girl his soft, affectionate gaze was reserved for, either.

Luaster for the ship meme!!

SEND ME A SHIP:

Who worries about how they will look when they’re older: Neither! Lui’s confident, Aster’s not shallow, and they’re both demigods so they don’t have a ton to worry about in that department :-p

Who makes the mix tapes/cd’s: Lui! Aster strikes me as the type who hasn’t heard like, basically 90% of the songs he considers his life anthems, so he’d quickly want to turn that around and show her stuff he likes. 

Clings to the other during scary movies: Aster? She’s braver than she looks and I don’t think she’d mean to but occasionally she just looks down and it’s like, when did I start clutching onto Lui’s arm like this? 

Gets into the shower with the other randomly: LUI. After a long time, once she’s comfortable, but still, total Lui move. 

Flashes the other when they walk by after taking a shower alone: Another total Lui move, but he’d be respectful of her boundaries and wait til it seemed like she was cool with it :-p 

Initiates hand holding while the other is driving: Aster. It just seems too cute and pure and innocent to be my shithead son :p

Secretly tries to touch the other in naughty places during public/family events: Lui! HE WANTS TO HOOK UP ON MOUNT OLYMPUS JUST ONCE IF THAT’S POSSIBLE OKAY

Asks weird questions in the middle of the night: LUI. Aster thinks it’s cute instead of annoying, though, even if she doesn’t understand why they need to talk about the possibility of a shark and dolphin being best friends at 3 am

Asks “what are you thinking about?”: Lui! He’s not used to someone who’s quiet and composed like Aster, and since he always blurts stuff out, he wants to make sure he’s not like... screwing up and doing the boyfriend thing wrong, since he wants so badly to get it right for her.

Always has to be touching the other, (if either of them do): LUI IS DEFINITELY MORE PHYSICAL SORRY ASTER!!! If she’s not into it he’ll back off but I mean... he’ll definitely try XD

“Why are you looking at me like that?” || Luaster

Crap. Lui hadn’t meant to zone out like that, but sometimes these Walt events got so boring, and Aster was... the opposite of boring. The most opposite of boring that a person could be, in his opinion. Still, it was unsettling enough that he’d gone from giving Serenity shit about still being underage and how he was so much cooler than her because of it, to always wanting to be around a younger girl he’d hardly even heard of just a couple of months ago.

Lui wanted to crack a joke, to say something stupid like ‘you’ve got a booger on your face’ or the kind of rubbish he’d say to anybody else, but for some reason, he wasn’t as good at that around Aster. She disarmed him, made him want to talk to her about stuff that was real -- stuff that other people didn’t understand, without the pressures of being a demigod kid hanging over their head. And apparently, she also made him blurt out things he didn’t even realize he was saying, too, because without even realizing it, the words “You just look really beautiful today” were spilling out of his mouth.
