Still Think This Is Cute - Tumblr Posts
Mal got me thinking about Artorias and Lucette father/daughter dance at her wedding.
It’d be a moment of whispered affection and congratulations from father to daughter. Lucette reassuring him that Koray is the one for her and that he makes her happy.
Artorias responding with “I hope he makes you endlessly happy, starlight. For all of your days. And your nights ;)”
That of course gets a laugh out of her.
“I am certain he will. As I am certain the Great Lion does for you, Papa.”
”Most certainly.”
The laughter keeps the tears Artorias wants to shed, at bay for a little bit but some still escape anyways.
As Mal has said, Artorias is a sap with family things and he will be very much a crybaby during the wedding. She’s no longer the tiny, scared little child he found in the woods nor the fiery tempered teenager he had to hunt down after curfew. His baby is all grown up now and has a husband and will eventually have a family of her own.
And that was something he both celebrated and mourned at the same time.
