Missing You

Author: Toby

Title: Missing You

Pairing: Lysander/Reader

Character/s: Lysander Shoggoth, Scarafaggio Shoggoth

Word Count: 705 words

Warnings: N/A

Tags: @doyahearthatsound-after-dark, @sapphic-florals

Prompt: You’re struggling to sleep and feeling lonely after a week without your partner. Luckily for you, Lysander has the perfect solution to help you drift off without her.

Notes: So, basically, back in like, January/February, when the discord I was in was creating the dons based on Beetlejuice, I created a female don. I didn’t feel comfortable sharing her until now as she felt mostly incomplete, and now she is somewhat more rounded as a character and I feel ready to share her to the world. What you need to know is: She’s African British, she’s mute due to the abuse Juno put her through but can talk through touch telepathy, she’s 6’0, she practices witchcraft but more she has taken a bit from different types of magic practice to make her own, she’s demisexual and demiromantic, she hates Zhuk and she makes me and the other two in my mini server very gay. Renée is also her Ren clone, she just has different names for them. She is in no way a part of the ‘legit’ canon for @the-conglomerate ‘s dons, just someone I created and have been working on for a while and wanted to share with you all. And it’s short because its just an introductory post, really. Enjoy.

Buy Me a Coffee

Missing You

You had one hell of a week. You felt drained and tired and just. Alone. Lysander had gone with Scarafaggio to help with some issue or another revolving around his art museum, but a quick day trip had slowly lengthened into a two week one. You just needed her support, or someone to just hold you until your mind had resettled and you were able to continue on as normal.

You huff as you turn in your bed, reaching over for your phone. 2:44am. You groan before moving to lay on your back, mind racing. All you wanted to do was sleep, and usually when your anxiety was running high, Lysander would help you get back to sleep. Be it with one of her potions, her singing in your mind as she holds you close or with more…..vigorous activity, she always had a way to get you to sleep through the night and into the next morning.

But, of course, she wasn’t here.

You tug your phone out and move to text her, squinting as the bright light shines over your face.

‘You there?’

‘Hello love, what are you doing up?’ Her instant reply, concern evident in her words, causes you to smile.

‘Couldn’t sleep. I miss you.’ You send it, eying the screen as the three dots appear in the app as she types away her message.

‘Scarabee told me you were upset this evening. Do you want to talk about it?’ You screw up your face.

‘No. I want to just move on.’ You send it before you start to type again. ‘When will you be home?’

‘Tomorrow. I promise.’ A second after the message arrives, an image appears right beneath. It's a selfie of herself and Gio, the Italian looking less than impressed that Ly has distracted him from whatever he was doing to take this selfie, Ly’s usual bright smile on her face as she stares into the camera. They look like they are at Gio’s smaller home in New York, and the table they are sitting at is covered in papers written in a language you don’t understand. Still. It was good to see her face.

‘Gio doesn’t look happy.’

‘He never does.’ You snicker at the quick retort. ‘Is there anything you need? To get to sleep?’

Your grin widens as you cheekily type out your next message. ‘Some kisses would help.’

For a second, you don’t get a reply. It’s not until you feel the ghosting of something against your neck does your phone ding. ‘Better?’ 

Oh, you could almost feel her cockiness through the phone. ‘Sorry, what?’ You send back, melting into the bed as you feel a pair of arms wrap around you, lips pressing against your neck, up your jaw, across your cheeks, on your nose, each of your eyelids before finally against your lips as the weighted sensation of someone laying on top of you causes you to relax.

‘Now?’ You can see her smirk if you close your eyes, but at this moment, you don’t care.

‘I could use a few more.’ The second you send the text, you feel it. Her hands ghosting down your sides, cupping your cheeks as thumbs brush over them lightly, lips pressing against yours again and again before moving to kiss wherever she can on your face. If you could, you’d purr. Loudly in contentment. ‘I love you.’ You finally text her, body feeling at peace as your mind slowly starts to fog over with sleep.

‘I love you too. Do you want me to send Renée over to keep you company?’ You think about her offer.

‘No. I should be alright. Send my love to her though, and to Gio.’ You shift to your side, feeling as if someone was pressing up against you as their arms wrap around you. You look behind you, nothing. You smile before snuggling back into the bed, knowing that it was simply her projecting the sensation of not being alone onto you, but it was enough to make you feel loved and warm. ‘Thank you.’

‘Of course, sweetness. Sleep well. I’ll see you soon.’

You yawn before moving to turn off your phone. Tomorrow can’t come soon enough.

What is your favorite kind of fry 👁️

AHHHHHHHHHH

[angelicspaceprince]

i love lysander! can you please write us a character profile thing so we can know more about her?

You most certainly can! Thanks to @blueberry-9-pancakes and @sapphic-florals for your help with this!

Please note our lore for the conglomerate is slightly different from others.

Ly, first and foremost, travels. A lot. She never stays in one place for too long. For her, it’s a protection method. You can’t hurt her if she is always on the move

She is a don, but not in the same way the other dons are. She works in a little bit of everything, just like her magic, but its always to help others. She’s into loan sharking, but if you are desperately in need and it’s clear you’ll never be able to pay her back, she will just grant you the money. If you’re a rich guy who didn’t need the money and could pay her back, but refuse to, that’s when you are punished.

Dabbles in sex work but its more to provide sex workers a safe place to actually, ya know. Work. You want to go down this line of work? She won’t judge, she will just make sure you’re not going to get hurt because of it.

Born in 1348 in London, kidnapped from her parents by Juno and raised by her

In a fit of rage, she attacked Ly and sliced her vocal cords. She now can’t speak. She spent years in silence, writing out what she wanted to say, before learning how to sign and used that as her way to communicate. She died about a decade after, having run away from Juno at that moment and never looked back.

Her clones can speak, but it hurts and is awfully gravelly. They tend to sign as a result and only talk when they need to.

Speaking of clones, they have different names! Mostly so she can tell the difference between her clones and the boys.

Bee: Bre, Chamie: CamCam, Cici: KeKe, Jay: Phoebe, Jazz: Jasey, Lex: Lulu, Ren: Renée, Wasp: Tilly

Keke, however, changes their name on the reg. Mostly to fuck with Zhuk, he never gets their name right and that’s intentional.

Additionally, more on communication - they are all touch-telepathic! 

Ly, in particular, uses it to determine whether or not she trusts you and it becomes a means to easily communicate with you. But only if she really trusts you or if she has to

When she’s angry, she always resorts back to sign because her voice becomes so loud it can damage your mind, so she pulls back and signs instead.

On that, holding her hand? Rarely. Only if she trusts you and has spent a lot of time with you. If you’re the sort to hold her hands in an attempt to calm her down when angry? She will never hold your hand again

Effectively, you’re silencing her when you do this. And, again, holding her hand, in general, is silencing her because, as much as she loves to communicate telepathically, she prefers to sign. So if she holds your hand, know that you’re special.

As for when she met the dons - a fic is coming with this to explain her hatred of the young Zhukary, but for the time being:

She met Bajo first, in the 20s. Right after he died, he was partying in the same place she happened to be. At first she wasn’t keen when he tried to pull her into the dance floor, but once he realised she was mute and didn’t treat her awfully as a result, they became fast friends.

She met Cia next, through Bajo (who kept in contact with her through letters as she travelled). The two hit it off right away, Cia and her enjoying teasing Bajo and talking about things that happened in the UK in their lifetime, basically ranting about how shitty the English were in different eras.

Scarabee was next. She came to the manor to visit Cia and Bajo when Bee found her and the pair hit it off right away, both talking about magic and him helping her out with a spell she had been stuck on for quite some time.

When she officially ‘moved’ into the manor in the 60′s - as in, she set up base there after having been a part of the Conglomerate for nearly a decade -  Scarabee tried to take Ly under his wing, them being the only two Black people there. He was shocked when Lysander was, in fact, much older than him.

Zhuk and Gio were next, fast-forwarding to 1954. Ly decided to visit the boys again, only this time, everyone was there.

Zhuk instantly assumed that she was just a fuck buddy of Bajo’s and was free for anyone to woo.

Lysander did a scan of his brain and found it repulsive. He was overly traditional, even by the 50s standards, and saw women as things, as he desperately tried to find someone to dote on but to the point that they were more doll than person and equal.

He also talked over her, dismissed her ideas, and attempted to take over her mafia in an attempt to ‘help her relax and take care of herself’.

Lysander, a raging feminist and as stubborn as anything, decided there and then that he was beyond saving and was not worth her time.

Zhuk changed over the years and now has a giant crush on the woman, but the damage was done. It’s unknown if they will ever end up together, as much as Zhuk would want it, he also knows he royally fucked up. And has reserved to a life of possibly never winning her favour back.

That being said, she is still civil and is able to spend time with him alone. She works with him and helps him where needed. It will be a miracle for her to form a romantic attraction to Zhuk.

Demipansexual and demipanromantic, but poly. She rarely feels sexually attracted to people until she’s known them for a while and they have already formed some kind of bond. Still has a sex drive, obviously, but it takes a while for her to trust someone enough to actually have sex with.

She’s six foot even

Highly competitive

As I stated before, she is a magic-user, but she takes knowledge from different practices to form her own form of magic, having blended it with the magic all demons are granted.

I haven’t done an official face claim but I’ve always been torn between Lupita Nyong'o and Janelle Monáe for face claims.

Dom-leaning switch, but soft dom. Only goes hard ass on the other guys, never on breathers.

Has pegged Zhuk on more than one occasion. Bajo asked for tips because how? Especially when she hates him? but he gets nowhere. It’s mostly hate fucking, when things go wrong and she just needs the physical release? Pegs and tops the fuck outta Zhuk, who allows it because he enjoys letting go and the aftercare that follows.

Has done some modelling for Gio, and sometimes he will call her to come and be his muse for his next collection of outfits and dresses that he wants to make.

Favourite colour is bright yellow or dark gold.

Ambidextrous.

[angelicspaceprince]

I must admit, I do have a wee bit of a crush on you. (Also I wonder if tumblrs been eating my asks)

😳😳😳 huh???? Who is this anon?????? (also probably I haven’t gotten any anons recently?🤔)

[angelicspaceprince]

Remember, I warned you. Horrible: 39, 40 Obscure: 1, 18, 30 Cute: 6, 19, 91 200 Things: 12, 81, 92, 108, 137, 159, 169, 189

You weren’t kidding!!

Each post is linked under their questions. 

39: How old were you when you had your first kiss?

I’ll get back to you on that, age still pending (haven’t been kissed yet)

40: Have you ever walked outside completely naked?

......yes.......

70 horrible questions … Fuck it

1. what’s your favorite way to dress?

I prefer to just be in my undies at most, I don’t like wearing clothes? But if I have to, jeans and a t-shirt with a button-down t-shirt over the top, makes me feel the most masc for reasons I don’t understand.

18. what animal would you keep as a pet, if you could?

I really want a turtle, a snake and axolotls but you can’t have them in Tassie bc its too cold unfortunately.

30. what instrument do you wish you could master?

I mean, all the instruments I played growing up - guitar, bass guitar, clarinet, piano, drums and tenor sax. I can’t pick between them. If I was to chose an instrument I didn’t have lessons for, then flute or violin.

obscure asks

6. What kind of people are you attracted to?

Genuine people who can make me laugh and are blunt and I can trust that they will tell me if I’ve done something wrong and be able to handle being called out when they do something wrong. Someone I can talk to about serious things but also goof off around. Sarcastic as well. Good people, who care about change. Idk what else to say. People who challenge me too I guess.

19. Do you like bubble baths?

Oh hell yes

91. Is there anyone you want to punch in the face right now?

SO many people. But I won’t, mostly bc they live mostly in the US but also because I can’t be fucked.

Cute Asks

12: My favourite thing to cook:

There is like a pasta bake dish that is just pasta, cream, tomato soup, bacon, onion, garlic and cheese which is really fucking good and easy so. That.

81: My zodiac sign is:

Cancer! My birthday is actually on Monday!

92: Last time I got a piercing:

Uh I was 16 or 18 and I got my ears redone? Once COVID’s officially over and I’ve lost a little bit of weight, I’m gonna get me nips done tho.

108: What I think of designer clothes:

A waste of money. It might be because I personally can’t fit in anything designer but also? Why spend $2000 on a jacket that cost $2 to make just because it has a designer name on it when you can spend $200 funding someone to hand-make you something that isn’t off a factory line, is designed for your body and is helping someone within the community or on etsy who needs the money more than designers. If its you’re thing, great you do you, but as a fellow crafter and someone who designer clothing isn’t necessarily for, I’d rather spend money on a seamstress for something of quality, paying someone a livable wage and is actually made to my body type.

137: Coke or Pepsi:

Diet Coke, the full-sugar stuff makes me cry

159: Do I believe in ghosts:

Yes. I’ve had quite a few paranormal experiences and have seen a few ghosts in my day so yeah. I believe in them.

169: Do I believe in love at first sight:

No. At least not for me. I feel like love is something you need to grow and develop from friendship and the few people who have been ‘I saw you and knew instantly I was going to marry you’ in relation to me (read: three people) have always been creepy and weird and possessive and terrifying. For me, love comes slowly and gradually until eventually, it hits me in the face like a fucking truck.

189: What was the last book you read:

‘The Green Witch: Your Complete Guide to The Natural Magic of Herbs, Flowers, Essential Oils, and More’ by Arin Murphy-Hiscock

200 things you can put in my ask

[angelicspaceprince]

What's the biggest misconception people have had of you?

That I’m a brat 😂 Don’t get me wrong, I am, but like. People assume I’m always a brat and well, it’s only true maybe 25% of the time? I think people forget that, as a nation, Australia’s sense of humour is shit-stirring so like. Most of the time I get called out it's me just horsing around being a dickhead, not actually being bratty 😂

1, 23, 68, 99

1: 6 of the songs you listen to most?

Atm?

I Am The Best by 2NE1 Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes you should see me in a crown by Billie Eilish - if you have arachnophobia, avoid this video Carmen - Stromae The Fine Print - The Stupendium Your Turn to Roll - Critical Roll

23: How do you vent your anger?

It depends on how angry I am. I will either:

- Rant to friends (but I tend to get repetitive because I hold onto things for ages before appruptly letting it go, and even then it will crop back up on me from time to time so I’m trying my hardest to stop doing this) - Angry crochet - Angry bake - Legit just hold up in my room and cry - Scream

I don’t deal with anger well 😅

68: What do you think is Satan’s last name?

Probably something like Smith or Johnson. Or asscrack idk.

99: If the whole world were listening to you right now, what would you say?

Uh, I’m not sure tbh. Either ‘chicken nuggets’ or ‘it’s time to overthrow the government, lets go!’
