happy mother's day!

it's time to make my annual propaganda post about my theory that Liliana Vess is secretly Killian Lu's mom.

this explains why Liliana has a framed portrait of Killian's dad in her office:

and it makes her extremely suspicious interaction with Killian and Embrose in "A Radiant Heart" make a lot more sense.

in "The Chains That Bind", Killian says his mom died when he was a baby, and he doesn't remember her. but i say he only THINKS she died. buddy, she didn't die. she planeswalked.

im so fucking serious about this. i will die on this hill-

Embrose: We are still working on filling the vacancies left after the invasion, would you be willing to step in for some Silverquill classes in addition to Witherbloom?

Liliana: Of course.

--

Liliana, stepping into class: Hello students, my name is Professor Vess and I will be taking over your Magical Contracts 101 class for the next few weeks. Here's lesson number one— not every problem in your life can be solved with a magical contract. Sometimes you'll need to rely on good old murder.

Student, raising their hand: That's.. Not on the assigned curriculum, professor.

Liliana: Well, it should be.

Embrose: "Son, we have survived the phyrexian invasion. I hear it could not have been done had you not cast the founder's spell. I am proud of you."

Killian, making a gun out of ink: "The real Embrose Lu would never show an emotion in front of me."

GUYS! GUYS! IT GOT (I THINK) CONFESSED ON VORTHOS CAST THAT LILIANA/EMBROSE IS REAL

[issandriskylark]

Part two of the Liliana x Embrose fic but from her perspective and obviously embrose (not gonna be as poetic but I'll try) also anything in () is once again the raven man.

Tw: attempted suicide

Pov Liliana

"shut up shut up" Liliana started yelling while holding her hands over her ears. ("Why should I? I'm telling you the truth Lili, he doesn't love you") the raven man replied maliciously. Using her own insecurity against her. Liliana after dealing with him saying this for hours. Almost torturing her with the fact that her life at the current moment could be a lie. She replied with "he does" but each time sounded less and less confident her mind turning on her the more she heard the raven man's words. Finally he said something different. (" Go to the roof and just jump at this point, you already know the harm you've done").

Pov Embrose

walking up to Liliana's office door he heard her talking to someone and she started yelling. Panicked he started knocking on the door thinking she was in danger or something like that noticing it was locked and hearing another but very quiet voice in there with hers. Hearing them tell Liliana to jump. He definitely figured out something was terribly wrong and busted open the door to see Liliana on the small balcony

Pov Liliana

Walking toward the balcony she's thinking to herself ' maybe he'll finally leave me alone. I might finally be able to repay all that I've done'. As she gets on to the balcony about to step over the railing she see's Embrose break through her door and come running out towards her but stops short noticing how close she is too the edge "Liliana there is no me without you" Liliana heard embrose say. Not believing him and the Raven man whispering something along the lines of ("Lili just jump you're a failure") she moved closer to the edge.

Pov Embrose

Noticing she didn't react or seem to listen to what i said. I panic because in this very moment with one wrong move and i could loose her. I yelled " Love listen I'm talking to you" . Seeing her flinch from the yelling broke my heart but she moved away from the edge and looked at me.

Pov Liliana

Hearing yelling i backed away from the edge and looked directly at embrose and for a moment I see concern in his eyes and then I'm pulled into my head again by the raven man. ("Lili just jump you dense woman") he yells and I back away and more towards the edge. "I don't know who to believe at this point " she yelled getting closer to the edge and everything sounding muffled. All she could hear is embrose and the Raven man arguing about no one asking for his opinion

Pov Embrose

"Liliana please" i beg tears forming in my eyes at this point. "We can talk about this please tell me what's wrong". She doesn't reply. I can't loose her again. I step forward and open my arms for her even though I know she won't budge or come closer but to my surprise she does.

Pov Liliana

Hearing Embrose begging and seeing tears finally snapped me out of it. The raven man keeps yelling for me to jump. I manage to block him out long enough. At least to go towards Embrose and he looked suprise that i did. But he also looked relieved. Feeling his arms wrap around me. "I'm sorry I'm so sorry" i managed to say before bursting into sobs. He says "shh sh it's ok love I've got you"

Sorry for the late post

And for it moving quickly

Me @ Embrose Lu 🤭

i know he's fictional but i would love nothing but to devour that man

[bace-jeleren]

B A C E! Have you heard of the new Liliana ship?! Dean Embrose Lu x Liliana Vess, and if you have..what do you think about it?

Also, thank you for the beautiful Jaciana art..it feeds my soul❤️

She knocked that old man up for real

[pxper-cranes]

I made a playlist for Liliana Vess, specifically her character from the perspective of after War of the Spark, concerning her state of grief with Gideon, and her eventual healing on Strixhaven

For a bit more context, I an a bit of a fan of the Liliana x Embrose Lu theory, and think that their dynamic, especially with Killian being her estranged son, would be a really interesting story to tell. So, thats the reason for a couple of the songs there.

I think Liliana is a really interesting and engaging character and think that a lot more can still be done with her story, especially now after the Phyrexian invasion, and I hope we see her again soon in the story.

Back to Arcavios!

*sighs* WIZARDSSSSS!!!!

look- if we dont get Liliana and Embrose Lu being TOGETHER in three years..imma lose it!

someone back me up on this bc they are so PERFECT for eachother! I really also hope Lili is still a planeswalker bc- she kinda worked for that planeswalker power and to just lose it kinda like- a punch to the gut? slap to the face? whatever- its bad

LILIANA NEEDS A HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP FOR ONCEEEEE

[wielderofmysteries]

Speaking of Professor Onyx being mommy, I firmly believe in the theory that Liliana was Killian Lu's mom.

In the story "The Chains That Bind", Dina unknowingly finds Liliana's old journal, in which she recorded her attemps to find ways to resurrect her brother when she was a student at Strixhaven.

Killian tells Dina that his mother died when he was very young. But I don't think she died. I think she planeswalked. 🤨

Why does Liliana have a framed picture of Killian's dad in her office?

Why does Liliana pay special attention to Killian appearing? Why do Liliana and Embrose speak to each other that way? Why does Liliana have such a strong emotional reaction to Killian's messed up relationship with his dad? There's something there.

And you may be thinking, "Killian is only a sophomore in college, wouldn't Liliana have attended Strixhaven long before he was born?" No, actually.

Liliana's journal indicates that she'd been an oldwalker doing oldwalker things for a long time before she attended Strixhaven.

So. I'm just sayin.

they let her be so mommy in this art and i love them for it
