Lucanis Week - Day II - The Ossuary/The Lighthouse
Harding: "Look at what's left of these people. They were tortured. What a terrible way to die."
Lucanis: "Very few people survive Calivan's rehabilitation."
Senka : "You did."
[Don't ask me how he sunk through the floor. Spite. Blame him.]
Drabble-esque type thing?
Lucanis froze, dark brows lifting in surprise at Rook's seemingly simple statement.
Perhaps it was their tone, or maybe it was the way their eyes met his, gaze unflinching and adamant. The unspoken message echoed loudly in the silence following their affirmation: You are strong. You are here. You SURVIVED what was meant to break you.
As Rook turned their back on what remained of the forgotten attempts at possessions, Lucanis shook his head slightly. He could take apart the inflection on each and every syllable, dissect that moment until it lost all meaning. He could hypothesize on motivations and angles until he was sure they were set to manipulate him.
Or he could simply accept it.
Maybe it was how starved he felt for any company that wasn't Spite, but in that moment, a brief vulnerability tore through him, and he felt his shoulders straighten.
GIFS for all my Lucanis Lovers!
Here, I swear to all that's holy Lucanis looks like he meets Rook's gaze. Are you threatening or hitting on Rook, Lucanis?
Jokes on you. My Rook is into that. <3
