Thinking about all the things AU Luz had to do as a kid to be a good daughter to Belos and also believing the empire used to be good. She obviously has seen petrifications in action, but I’m curious if she’s ever had to *start* some. As in Belos just nudges her towards the accused and asks her to read the execution order or smthing. Cue then AU Luz and Canon Luz facing off each other after the canon crew is transported there and AU Luz being like girl, yes, I am your evil doppelgänger, i’ve killed before, like, multiple times etc

AU luz: i am evil, i am destruction, i am harbinger, i helped belos inflict untold cruelty and maintain his empire and now i've inherited everything he built and i can't burn it down fast enough, you won't ever understand the depth of what i've-

canon luz: oh hey, look on the bright side, though! you probably didn't help him fast-track a genocide in this timeline, right?

AU luz:

canon luz:

AU luz: you did What???

#replies #shitposts aside i do love thinking about AU luz's horrifying childhood.#she's seen petrifications before! she knows what people look like when they die!#i think you're right that belos would probably have her take a semi-active role as she got older #and even if she didnt play an active role. the realization of 'oh all of those people were innocent'#'oh i should have realized absolute state power and the death penalty are unconscionable earlier'#'when i was like eight years old completely isolated and indoctrinated. somehow'#'this is all my fault. i could have stopped it. at eight years old'#honey. give yourself a break #toh #princess luz au #luz noceda
