she’s already said not to – but tybalt almost feels human with the creeping guilt crawling up his throat . lucia is good , she doesn’t deserve the storm that is him & his fucked up family in her life , meeting with her dictator of a father to make a decision she should make . he’s been here for minutes & he’s already corrupted innocence , pure sunshine with his storm clouds & the hurricane that usually follows quickly behind . tybalt looks at lucia , who’s eyes hold so much more emotion than her lips have told ( he can get lost inside the chronicle that’s hidden in her hues )& he wants to move mountains for her . he doesn’t deserve much , but she – who listens to him bitch & moan about how hard it is to be a millionaire prodigy – deserves everything . the heavens should split open if she wished it , lucifer should crawl up & surrender if someone like her asked . it dawns on him then , that his father knew exactly what he was doing setting them up – a good girl , a good wife ; someone to balance out a trail of wreckage & chaos . shouldn’t his father know ? nothing balances out chaos . ❛ a few . ❜ he answers her question , with a knowing nod . ❛ less than ten , more than three . pick a number & stick with it . ❜ a poor joke , like those women are just numbers ( how many trophies can he collect ? a gold medal for every fianceé he beds & leaves )& not real human beings . they all deserved better – even the marchioness , who made sure to beat him at his own game before she cut him out of royalty .
& tybalt knows it’s just a joke , his lips tilt upwards at the compliment , spread wider at the tease . would it be so bad if he did fall ? jump off the ledge he’s stood on for years to dive head first into the ocean that just spit him back out . ❛ yeah , you’re plenty irresistible lucia . just keep doing you & i’ll be head over heels in no time . ❜& it’s no lie , it’s the truth . a knockout compared to most of the cape coral student body . a plethora of wealth shown in brand names & upturned noses when all anyone needs to do is be kind . softness is attractive , he’s never taken kindly to men & women who’re as cruel as he is . lucia , while not entirely soft , is kind at heart – made of solid gold while she outwardly cares about everyone . winona , held a hard exterior but was one of the warmhearted person he knew . with everyone trying to prove how much of a titan they are , they lose themselves & tybalt can’t find anything uglier than someone like him . ❛ ah , i’ll be fine – get over it soon . i always win , you know that . ❜ she squeezes his arm – an act of kindness against his body when he’s so used to receiving scratches & cuts . but there’s so much sadness in her face , in the way she speaks her words that tybalt’s brain flips a switch . business to pleasure back to business – what his father’s always trained him to be . ❛ or , we take it in stride . no complaints , no tantrums , no disappointments . i’m happy to be your soon - to - be - husband & you’re thrilled to become my wife . if , say , a month passes & we decide we don’t want this – we come up with a plan where you get off scot - free . ❜ he smirks . ❛ imagine the headlines – song cheats on reyes with escort ; no way your father would let you marry me . ❜
lucia’s not sure she’s feeling when tybalt her come up with own number for how many fiances he’s actually had. she’s unsure if she should be surprised or maybe EXPECTED that tybalt’s had more potential future wives than she’s had partners. in an alternate universe where tybalt song is able to make his own choices, lucia might be a bit judgmental. deep down she knows it wasn’t a choice. he followed orders from his father and ACCEPTED that was how his stack of cards was dealt. she’s an empathetic person, she sympathizes with him and fights the any look on her face that could represent pity. lucia knows that the look makes her own skin crawl, someone being able to detect her WEAKNESS and keep that knowledge with them. lucia and tybalt are liars after all, giving off the impression they’re better than anyone who doesn’t mean their standards —— whatever that may be. “more than three, less than ten...” she trails off, pretending to think over her answer and knows this is him passing off the situation as a joke rather than a reality. “i’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and say SIX. it’s closer to three, but almost to ten.” lucia wants to play along to and pretend for a moment she wasn’t just a number to be added on to his list. a part of her doesn’t think they’ll make it down the aisle and she BLAMES herself for that.
"my goal in life is to make everyone fall in love with me and have the POWER to know they can never be with me. you’re already ahead of everyone else.” lucia shrugs, gently knocking her hips against his and laughing lightly. this was another reason she was more stressed about the fact she was being wed off than who she was arranged to be with. she was able to mess around with him, already poured some of her HEART to him, and the only thing she’s hid from him is the truth about the reyes family. lucia’s not completely positive what he would do with that piece of information. she raises an eyebrow at tybalt when he says he always win, almost CHALLENGING him to prove that he wins every time. “yeah? you always win? no matter what?” she pauses to raise her eyebrow higher at him. “have you ever got your ass kicked at mario kart? we’re going to be seeing a lot of each other and i need to at least play one round of mario kart with you to prove that i also ALWAYS win.” and she means what she says. she doesn’t just want to spend time with him because they have to, half the time surrounded by eyes watching their every move. and while she’s an absolutely nightmare at most video games, she’s confident in her mario kart skills. “i’ve been going all my life pretending i love my life to pieces. i can hold back on the complaints and tantrums so things can be smooth sailing. i don’t think my father would listen to me anyway.” she shrugs before her face twists into one of complete disagreement. “okay. i’ve got a new plan that’s even BETTER. if one day we decide to get out of this arrangement, we’ll find away to bring us both down or both of us scot-free. plus i don’t think my father would really say anything about cheating. that would make him a hypocrite.” lucia’s eyes widen, lips pressing together. does she ask him to act like he hadn’t heard anything or does she glance over what she said like nothing? “anyway. we’re finding a way where tybalt song doesn’t get dragged through the mud. COMPRENDE?”
#⌈ reply ⌉#➳ ❪ interaction ❫ … tybalt#can i be honest#i've been picturing a basketball in lucia's hand#and i can't tell u why i do#she just.... having it#imagine lucia playing basketball......... u can't it's unrealistic

𝚝𝚠: 𝚖𝚎𝚗𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗𝚜 𝚘𝚏 𝚙𝚊𝚗𝚒𝚌 𝚊𝚝𝚝𝚊𝚌𝚔
lucia remembers being five and thinking the WORST DAY of her life was when she didn’t get the barbie doll she had been asking for. she remembers crying, throwing a fit. it didn’t last long for her father to grunt and lie that it was lost in the mail and would reach them soon. it was a lie she liked so lucia ignored it, smiled BRIGHTLY when her father carelessly dropped the box in her hand and shoved her away roughly because he had important business to take care of. lucia reyes got what she wanted and nothing else mattered.
at SEVENTEEN years old, lucia realizes the worst day of her life cemented a cruel milestone into her life. she sits on her bedroom floor, legs pulled up to her chest and back against the door while tears c a s c a d e down her rosy cheeks. she didn’t need a mirror to know her makeup was smudged, ruined. it wasn’t a CONCERN to her — much like when she finally got the barbie of her dreams, she didn’t care about the lies or neglect. only this time, she doesn’t have HAPPINESS to ground her. she has pain, betrayal, and anger to not think of anything else.
‘ 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐝. 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝. 𝐚 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 -- 𝐚 𝐛𝐢𝐠, 𝐛𝐢𝐠 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞. 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐭. 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐫𝐮𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐲𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐞. 𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐝 𝐨𝐟𝐟. 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞, 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞, 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞, 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞, 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐭. ’
maybe it’s supposed to make sense now, the way she was treated since she can remember — taught to be exactly like the BARBIE she wanted so badly at age five. everything she said fell to deaf ears, words unimportant. everything she did was met with harsh criticism, words of FAILURE and worthlessness and demands to make herself better. lucia reyes was in fact a REYES, had the last name and her father’s stubbornness to prove it. however, she wasn’t a real reyes. a placement figure for someone no one knew what to do with. lucia wonders who she would be if her father — if he hadn’t paid off her biological mother.
lucia overheard a conversation she wasn’t supposed to, ran the moment she made eye contact with her father, and fought the lump in her throat to cry out in ANGUISH because it all made sense. it fit together like a puzzle she wanted to rip apart. she did everything her father said and attempted not dwell on the words hurled at her, took her step-mother’s DISINTEREST and cruel glares in order to roll off her shoulders. it hadn’t made sense for so many years and she continued to play oblivious, but now it was laid bare in front of her realize the TRUTH.
there’s a knock on her door, causing her to jump and rise to her feet. she clears her throat, straightens out her attire and wipes the stray tear hanging off her chin to open the door. her father stands her, lacking any sympathy or warmth, but she can’t miss the anger — like his MISTAKE was her fault, that her overhearing it transitioned the fault to her own. they don’t say anything, tense atmosphere surrounding them, until a snarl curls on her father’s upper lip.
“we have brunch with the rockefellers in fifteen minutes. you look like a mess. clean yourself and meet us downstairs.” he gives her a once over, judging how easily she cracked with the truth, before he turns his nose up at her and leaves.
with a deep breath, she closes her bedroom door quietly and pretends she’s not at the brink of a panic attack. she’s been PRETENDING for most of her life, what’s one more day? she drags her feet toward her vanity and sits down slowly, eyes catching her reflection in the mirror. she blinks, once, twice — the corners of her mouth curl up in a PERFECT smile. the strain of her cheeks so familiar. she recognizes this person. nothing is wrong after all.

@witherins 𝐬𝐚𝐢𝐝 ━━ ❝ 🍊 ❞
Q: does my muse desire romance?
lucia won’t ever want to admit it out loud, but she loves romance. she’s pretty much a hopeless romantic sucker and hopes to have a whirlwind sappy romance.
Q: is it something they would actively seek out, or prefer to happen more ‘naturally’?
lucia does not seek it out and she prefers it more naturally even though someone could be interested and flirt with her to her face and she wouldn’t pick up the signs.
Q: what is their love life like?
nonexistent.
Q: do they have exes or past flings, or crushes?
no to all three of those.

❭ ── 𝐴 𝑅 𝐶 𝐻 𝐸 𝑅 𝐵 𝐿 𝑌 𝑇 𝐻 𝐸 𝑊 𝐸 𝑆 𝑇 𝑂 𝑁 𝐷 𝐼 𝐷 𝑁 ’ 𝑇 detest school but it was no surprise that it wasn’t her favourite place . it was dreary and mundane , there was no stack pile of research on some bowl from an ancient civilization or frantic calls about a potential sighting in a far too hot country or bone chilling meetings with potential buyers . it a sense , archer would rather talk to her father than be here but the male in question gave her no choice about a month ago . he needed someone to take after the company and while it was a boring concept , money provided many pleasures in life . yet , here she was two weeks into being in this place and she was fucking lost and she hated it . she rather be lost in a museum , in an art show , in something far more cultured than school . her thoughts are lost as she eased through the halls into and ─ slam . groan . eyes widening , “ oh my gods , i’m so sorry ! ”
for the first time in weeks lucia isn’t DISTRACTED with her phone because of her father. while her full attention was still on her phone, it was focused on speaking spanish profanities into the speaker to her brother on the other line. besides that the only words out of her mouth are ‘no’ and her brother’s name. lucia isn’t looking where she’s going, a COMMON THEME whenever she’s interacting with a family member through her phone apparently, eyes roaming around to see if she can see her brother anywhere. she’s looking everywhere, but what’s in front of her and in moments lucia finds herself crashing into another body, stumbling backwards and managing to keep her balance. her phone falls from her hand, luckily a pretty phone case protecting it once it hit the ground and saved it from any possible damage. she hangs up on her brother without a word, will apologize later, to blink up at the person she walked into as she picked up her phone. “don’t think you can APOLOGIZE when i was the one not paying any attention.” lucia raises herself up to her feet, smiling softly. “for that i am sorry. i hope i didn’t cause any damage.”

ostcntatious·:
𝖘𝖙𝖆𝖗𝖙𝖊𝖗 / @rvmances· !
𝐎𝐏𝐇𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐀 𝐈𝐒 𝐀𝐍 artist , and formal dinners are her favorite medium . she charms people with ease , paints strokes of gold and silver with every conversation . slips from one to the next so elegantly it looks choreographed , making idle yet cultured remarks about any topic from the stock market to classics . always regal in the way she carries herself ––– ophelia is reminded of hours walking with a small pile of books resting atop her head , of perfecting her stance in front of a mirror and observing parents and family foes alike to learn how to command a room merely by entering it . the songs have a slight flair for the dramatic . it is common knowledge , by now ––– it’s no surprise that ophelia enters the reyes household with heels clicking loudly against the surface of the floor , formal smile on red lips , couture adorning her frame . the reason why she was invited to this dinner is unknown ––– and it’s intriguing , considering her relationship to lucia reyes . and yet , ophelia lets her presence fill the room with ease . she approaches a nearby group of influential adults , her hand closes around a glass of red wine , she revels in the way so many eyes follow her every move . it’s almost odd , how many people glance her way ––– almost , until curiosity is replaced by the thrill of feeling adored . maybe ophelia doesn’t know why they invited her . it doesn’t make her any less confident , any less pleased with the way people turn to look at her when she arrives and keep looking . she is , after all , a song ––– if only ophelia knew just how relevant her last name was tonight .
lucia’s not one to feel out of place when it comes to any sort of event at the REYES FAMILY HOME. she knows how to work a crowd, have them falling at her feet and saying praises behind her back when she disappears. she plasters on a POLITE smile, made her way around the room, and carried on uplifting conversations that would make her father proud. lucia was trained for occasions like this, knew what was expected of her and what actions she does create the best outcome. the facade was nonexistent that evening, however. there are moments where the corner of her lips quirk up in yet another polite smile that feels all too FAKE, making sure any curiously wandering eyes don’t catch her slipping up. while she has no complaints about tybalt, she couldn’t fully grasp that the two are to be wed. it wasn’t an arrangement of love, but one of business. her father has tried many times to get lucia to wed a rich suitor, however, she never believed he would take it this far. from the corner of her eye, lucia catches OPHELIA. she hasn’t seen the other since the block party and it leaves herself wondering where they stand. she hadn’t told a soul about their encounter, more than likely wouldn’t even if ophelia turns things back to how they were before. ophelia song is a force to be reckoned with and she easily see it by the way she CAPTIVATES the room. she holds her head up high and there’s no mistaken the amount of envy and adoration is mixed in the room. a tiny part of lucia wishes to pull ophelia away from those she’s surrounded with and talk about what happened, but she decides against it instantly. she grabs a glass from a nearby tray and DISAPPEARS into the furthest bathroom to hide for as long as she could.

* ❪ 🔪 ❫ ﹕ 𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝘄𝗶𝗻. simple & easy wasn’t the preferred route to take but how could he not when her conflict of interest reads so clear he could laugh. & so he does. the sound a crystalline knife through the collarbone of one who dreaded such hubristic reaction. modesty which separated him from the rest. it encourages the sudden show of sharp teeth, a cartoon fox grin as lucky steps against the edge of the board so it’s kicking up into his palm, feet padding along to bring him closer. he couldn’t imagine feeling foul about his appearance & the way the few around him get lost in the depths of their insecurities leaves him as a symbol for instant envy. ❛ oh yeah ? what’s my name. ❜ a purr of inquiry ; anything to keep the rasp of her irritation. the way she rambles is evidence enough that a simple flick of tongue can alter her mood, head leaning sideways & letting a curl slip along squinted hues. her wordplay cons him to stay, delighted & impressed all the same that he almost feels the need to ask when she’ll be presenting it. just to see her curate improper technique into a catalyst of performance art. there’s no doubt in his mind that she was gifted with beauty. rivaling cherubic locks & fair skin of angels immortalized within golden frames that hung high for the world to scrutinize. an illusion of leaking teardrops upon rosy cheeks at the knowledge that eyes warm enough to trick the meek & mousy through manicured claws stood in the flesh. she could hold the world in her palm if she wanted. look down even as lucky is forced to tilt his chin to keep eye contact. the brains that compete with vanity makes her that much more dangerous. persephone walking among mortals. ❛ guess i’ll have to stick around, then. no tienes que chantajearme. just ask nicely. ❜
lucia stares at lucky blankly for a couple seconds before her lips twist up into a grin, filled with fire and attitude that lucky could possess out of her EASILY. it isn’t something she likes to admit, even to herself. lucia likes to hold herself together. let others see positive emotion, but push down any negative ones. her father drilled into her head that it was a sign of WEAKNESS for anyone to see she was less than happy. they have nothing to use against her that way and lucia reyes could remain the perfect picture of a barbie. lucky, however, was a pain in her ass since day one. he was cocky and arrogant, two things she couldn’t stand in a person, but here she was continuing to come back to him willingly. “your name is LUCIFER, right?” she says it like it’s obvious, the corners of her lips turning up more. it wasn’t the best comeback she’s ever had, but she is proud of herself deep down for coming up with it so quickly. lucia is certain it’s a nickname for lucky that’s going to stick each time they meet up with one another. it also hopefully cemented the fact he didn’t have the upper hand in this back and forth banter, that she can extend her claws when need be. “i think whoever named you did a great job deciding that. who would’ve thought they were right?” lucia pushes, shrugging her shoulders. she crosses her arms over her chest and stares up at him, showcasing a demeanor that she wasn’t a warm person and keeping a distance from lucky that was surely to crack the longer he sticks around. he might find her a pain in the ass too, but she knows he likes her. lucky wouldn’t be hanging out with her to bug her if he didn’t. “lucifier ... are you making excuses to spend some time with me? CHANTAJEARME, i have plenty on you, but i think you want to be with me right now.”

(っ◔◡◔)っ ♥ from neels , for @lulucias .
his elbow is stinging , and it ramps up his usual drama by 100 . his wine - fuelled evening stroll had been rudely interrupted by an unfortunate spill on the curb —- it hadn’t been there , and then it had . in his misery , neels had laid in the grass for a contemplative moment , feeling the individual blades tickle his skin through the newly torn hole in the elbow of his favourite givenchy button up . he could’ve easily laid there and allowed himself to bleed out from the scrape that accompanied the hole , but a few seconds of thought reveals that he doesn’t want to give any of those who’d wronged him the chance to whimper at his funeral . the first thought that cuts through his cabernet sauvignon haze as he drags himself up is to find lucia . she’s easily the smartest person he knows —- and it’s that belief that finds him rapping on her door until it swings open . “ hey —- check this shit out . ” he insists , presenting the red stain that has bloomed on the remaining fabric around his battle scar . “ wild . i’m lucky to be alive . ”
it’s not uncommon for neels to show up on her doorstep UNANNOUNCED -- the only difference from this moment compared to any other time is that neels is knocking. he normally struts into the place like he owns it, makes himself comfortable, so she’s a little caught off guard when she opens the door to find him standing in front of her. “something must be wrong if you’re being POLITE.” is the first thing she tells him, though her theories are proved somewhat correctly when he’s showcasing the stain taking over the fabric of his wound. “what the hell happened and tell me how you managed to survive.” there’s a frown tugging on the corner of her lips, realizing that he wasn't going to allow himself in for a change, wraps her fingers gently around his uninjured arm to tug him inside. “obviously we’re gonna take care of that and you can stay here. you DON’T have a choice either.” she says, pointing a finger at him. “okay, c’mon. i’ve got two bandaid choices for you. it’s the regular ones and disney princesses. take your pick.” lucia drags him into the bathroom, stopping him in front of the sink. “i think your top is as good as gone. i’m sure we can find something here for you to wear, but you should run the BATTLE WOUND under cool water. i read it somewhere it’s better, i swear. do you need help?”
