Lucette Is Being Dragged On A Journey And Its All Artorias FAULT.

Lucette is being dragged on a journey and its all Artorias’ FAULT.

(Ornstein gets partial blame)

Lucette turned the corner, the friction between her shoes and the stone floor making her shoes squeak. Not that she cared. She was too busy gloating and mentally patting herself on the back. She managed to sneak away from Bi-Han!

Or so she thought. She was so busy basking in her own glory, she didn’t see the portal until it was too late. 

Lucette felt the air change around around her and for a split second, she was weightless, the floor gone. The change startled her, making her trip over her own foot and fall face first onto a different type of stone floor. That sure knocked all the tiredness out of her.

“What the?!” What in the world just happened? What was that?

Raising her face from the floor, Lucette looked around to see that...she was definitely not in the hallway. It looked like she was in some sort of training area.

“How did I get out here? I know for a fact that I was heading to my room-Oh hi, Grandmaster! How.......How’s it going? What a surprise to see you....here.”

Lucette had to stop herself from talking about her almost successful escape attempt when she caught sight of Kuai Liang standing right next to her. Lucette rearranged herself into a more relaxed pose, still lying on the floor. Hoping that her smile would distract him. And hoping he didn’t see that.

“Uh, Grandmaster, I seem to have gotten lost. You see what happened was......I was going to use the bathroom and I some strange thing happened, probably a wrong turn, and ended up here. Isn’t that crazy?”

‘You are a terrible liar.”

Taking a quick glance around the room under her lashes, Lucette saw that everyone was busy doing their own thing and Bi-Han was more focused on his food. Perfect.

‘You cannot be serious right now.’

“I’m very serious. I deserve five more minutes of sleep. And come hell or high water, I’m getting those 5 minutes. One way or another.”

Lucette stood up and casually and silently made her way to the hall, doing her best to seem casual, as if she was just going to use the bathroom or something. That’ll be her excuse.

‘And if they find you NOT in the bathroom but on your bed, peacefully napping the day away?’

“Well, I’m a woman. And sometimes womanly things come up and I have to rest to get better.”

‘That is the weakest excuse I have ever heard.’ Lucette rolled her eyes, now sneaking along the wall towards the direction of her room, mind already partly daydreaming about the the soft pillow and warm blankets awaiting her.

“If it works, it works. How many times have you called my plan stupid and it still worked?”

‘Out of luck, not skill.’

“Denial and excuses.”

When she was far enough away, she broke into a sprint to her bedroom. Nap time, here she comes!  Bi-Han can easily wait til afternoon, a reasonable time, to bully her.

Knew it.

Saibot watches as she slips out, thinking that she could get away without rousing anyone’s attention. Which, admittedly, was impressive work for someone that had not been trained by the Shirai Ryu or the Lin Kuei: with some correct training, maybe she’ll be as good as one of them later on.

The shadow entity glances at Bi-Han. If he had eyebrows to arch, they would have: with just a bit of focus, he calls up a shadow portal. He’ll have a bit of fun with this one, before the cryomancer inevitably calls him back into their shared vessel. Which could be immediately, or a few hours later when he inevitably would sense that he had left for too long.

He steps out into the hallway of the temple, in the wing where most of the guest quarters would be located. Should be coming around the corner any minute now -

Saibot smirks wickedly.

Two portals, one opens in the hallway just before her, one that would deposit her right in front of the Grandmaster in the training arena. Bit of a surprise for certain, and a better wake-up call.

If Raiden was your father:

I’m probably gonna hurt some y’all’s feelings but-

No, I don’t believe that the plume on Ornstein’s helmet is his actual hair. That makes 0 sense. Why would he leave his hair out in the open like that???

An enemy grabs it and pulls on it, that’s it for him. That does not seem like something Ornstein would risk.

Heads up: Dadverse Lucette has 5 kids later on.

3 boys, 2 girls

I haven’t named all of them yet tho

1. Twins: Leofred and Idmaer

2. Teodora

3. ?

4.?

5.?

Lucette and Artorias are the ones coming up with names for the kids because Koray just agrees with whatever name his wife asks him about. He’s not really focused on the names, he just wants his kids and wife to be happy and healthy.

Artorias is an excited grandpa and spoils all his grandkids rotten. Will literally find loopholes through Lucette’s rules to spoil the kids.

Lucette: Papa, don’t pick them up. We need to encourage them to walk more. They can’t always rely on being carried now that they can walk

Artorias: Okay *sits on the floor and let’s the babies climb on him*

Twins: Momma, can we have cake? Lucette: No, no cake before dinner

Artorias: *gets them cupcakes* “You said cake. You never said anything about cupcakes.”

WHEN I GIVE LUCETTE AND HER KIDS (IN EVERY VERSE) DAENERYS STYLE HAIRDOS

WHO’S GONNA STOP ME?! WHO’S GONNA CHECK ME, HUH?!
