this headcanon is a healing balm on my heart
Since it’s all but confirmed that Lute loved Adam, I think before, she was content with not being Adam’s lover, even him never knowing, because the way their relationship was by itself was good enough for her, as long as he’s still in her life. (but since he’s not anymore, she’s crashing tf out and honestly I would too)
So if you’re his S/O, even if you haven’t known him for as long as she has, all you’ve gotta do really is earn her trust (which doesn’t come easy for her) and respect, and yall are cool. If Adam really loves you (and she can tell) and you give it back in kind, then she likes you, because if you’re important to him then you’re important to her too.
See i definitely feel this, But I also feel like she would take you as a threat as well.
A threat for taking him away, Taking his time away, which limits how much she gets to see him.
But im the end she can not hate you, even as much as she wants too, she can't. She didnt take her chances in fear that it would ruin her friendship with him.
You however, Took your chance if it was you who came onto him. Or Adam who came onto you. And fuck if its serious? If Adam constantly going out his way to make time for you out of his busy schedule? Or your going out the way to see him with his busy schedule?
Like you coming to his office with lunch for the both of you and you even went out the way to bring her a meal too. Because you had been raised right and couldn't eat infront of someone, because you were taught if you eat everyone eats? Or the times you would include lute to certain things tou and Adam were doing. Course if it was serious date, you or him wouldn't have invited her. But doing things where groups were most common and you had invited her and a few other excorist to come?
How could she hate you?
Especially the way yoh make Adam genuinely happy? How could she hate the person who makes the one person she loves so happy?
it'd a double edge sword.
It hurts her that you had just appeared and took his attention, stole his heart and was rebuilding it, making it strong. Something SHE wanted to be the one to do so.
And Yet the thought of seeing Adams utter devastation and heartbreak if he lost you, would be something she couldn't bare seeing. Especially if he started talking about proposing or even fathoming the possibility of having a family with you.
"Its rare for winners to have children sir."
"Yea! R a r e, but not impossible! But shit even if that doesn't work, theres like TONS of fucking kids that pass through here. I wouldn't mind raising like......Fuck.......Realistically I could do like sixty.....Done that shit before.....But preferably like Twenty. Max."
".......Sir thats a bit of high number for an average family."
"What the shit is an average family?"
"...Two children, sometimes three...."
"................What."
While Poor you nearly fell out when Lute would have told you that tale over a girl lunch. Something you had invited her out because you wanted to try out a new café that was opened. See your flabbergasted face and the way you held her hand thanking her for talking dowm her 'Insane' friend, she couldn't help but to smile.
"I love the man.....But he is out of his fucking mind."
"I entirely agree."
