FMK: Shepherds of Haven

Here's the wheel of spinning!

Note 1: I didn't include Mimir or Neon since they're both aroace and it felt wrong to me to put them in the running when "fuck" is an option. Yes, not all aces are sex repulsed, but since I don't know their stance on it, I decided to error on the side of caution.

Note 2: If you land on "A Faceless Lord", you get to pick which one! (Pretend this is me being magnanimous instead of getting tired and not wanting to look up how to spell all their names to add them individually, lol!)

ok i am one (1) workout away from the mid-program week off/chill week i had decided to experiment with based on a thing a person said on reddit, which is proving currently incredibly psychologically beneficial... and i'll be able to say i made it 5 weeks working out 5 times a week including 4 of those weeks where i was also working my job 7 days a week... AND today is full body day my beloved... and it's complexes, also my beloved... and they're 3 minutes long which is a little scary but that's the same length we did on day one of those program and that was all lower body (my beloathed) so this will be less bad than that and she's using the lighter end of her weight range so the Hoisting element is not so intense... AND i'm up to a GREAT CM episode in the criminal minds recap podcast (the one with the guy who cuts out their hearts and uses his son as bait and also hotch is semi-fired and prentiss is quitting and they have a weirdly sexually charged scene about being addicted to their jobs and strauss is there...) that has become my Workout Go-To... okay i can do this. 100%. i got this. it's gonna be fine. i am tough and brave and i can do it!

Prompt: Fictober Day 5: "It's a new day, let's go."

Fandom: Lumine

Summary: Kody and Lumine have been staying at Sera's apartment for a little less than a week; it's unfamiliar, and he can't really communicate directly with her yet, but she's kind enough.

Content Warnings: repressing trauma/grief and trying to "move forward" normally, implied parental death (if you squint) (like a lot) (and also know the series), very mild angst

Words: 965

Kody groaned, rolling over to lay on his side. The couch was big enough for him to lay on his back, but he always felt unstable when rolling to lay on one side or the other—even if he had an inch or two of space to spare. It was definitely softer and more comfortable than the floor, where Lumine had fallen asleep, curled up in a bundle of blankets but insistent that he would be more than fine despite Sera’s protests about how the two of them should sleeping in her bed while she took the couch.

She had pushed hard enough, but Kody had also said that he would be more than fine on the couch—so long as Lumine was insistent that he was fine in the floor, at least.

His sides and chest ached, and he wasn’t sure if it was where he had slept on his back most of the night, the sudden change from warm air to cold, the stress, or something else—It would just be my luck if I got sick before all of this happened. He thought bitterly, shifting to bury himself under the blankets further with a slight shiver.

It had been a little less than a week since he and Lumine had started to stay with Sera; he had started to pick up a few words here and there, all while Lumine had been the middleman for communicating between them. It wasn’t easy, and she often had Lumine reassure him that he didn’t have to help with anything—but at the very least, he would wordlessly help with cooking or cleaning.

Lumine helping would probably be a little bit of a disaster, after all. He knew this. She didn’t know this. He would really rather her not find out just how clumsy he could be sometimes.

The bedroom door creaked open, and Sera’s voice followed—it was low and tired, but still carried a warmth that he could identify, but couldn’t understand.

“Pretty sure I’m the only one awake.”

Kody sat up slowly, resting his arm over the back of the couch as he watched Sera quickly move towards the open kitchen; one of her ears twitched up as he spoke, turning slightly in his direction.

He tensed at the sound of her scurrying, eyes practically glued to her as she moved, the rest of him frozen.

She spoke again—”… Lumine?”

The coffee pot bubbled to life, a red light on the switch catching Kody’s eye as she turned to walk towards the living room. She furrowed her brow, seeing the tension in his shoulders, and added something to her question, though Kody wasn’t sure what.

Kody slowly shook his head, seeing her gaze fall on him; he averted his gaze, now looking at the werewolf sleeping on the floor. “Asleep still.”

She nodded, seeming to accept the answer, and made her way back to her bedroom, leaving him alone once again. He watched the door for a moment, expecting her to hurry back out, but she never did—instead, his attention drifted over to the coffee pot, which now had steam steadily billowing out from the top.

Maybe I’ll get some after she leaves. She probably made more than enough.

“Kody?”

Lumine’s voice was quiet, drowsy; the bundle of blankets shifted and his form grew larger, leaving the blankets themselves folding over his shoulders with his head poking out as if it were a cape.

“Morning,” Kody offered a small wave, not looking in his direction. “Sera’s late again, I’m pretty sure.”

“Yeah, her footsteps woke me up. Really loud…”

“Don’t I know it. Seems like she’s late pretty often.”

Lumine offered an anxious smile and half-laugh. “We don’t even know if she’s late today, though… Plus, us being here probably really throws her off.”

“… Yeah. Probably…” Kody murmured, pulling his own blanket around himself to match Lumine. “She asked if you were awake, I think.”

“I am now… Are you helping make breakfast this morning, or?”

“If I don’t, are you gonna accidentally start a fire with her toaster?”

“No—”

“Lumine?” Sera’s voice rang out as she approached them again, pulling a coat around her shoulders and fastening it while she spoke from behind the couch. “Morning. I’m going out for groceries. You two can come with me, you could probably use heavier jackets if you’re going to end up stuck here for awhile. Make sure Kody knows he can pick out whatever he needs for cooking if you two come along.”

“Oh! You were doing that today, that’s right…” Lumine’s awkward laugh rose again as he moved to sit on the couch, leaning forward against the backing to talk more directly to Sera.

“What’s she saying?” Kody looked from Sera to Lumine, one eyebrow raised. “She doesn’t seem like she’s in a hurry anymore.”

“She said she’s going out for groceries, and that we can go with her.”

Kody grew quiet for a moment, hands holding tight to the edge of the blanket as he watched Lumine, expression unchanging, wait for an answer. He could still feel Sera standing behind the couch, no longer hurrying around the room.

“We don’t have to go out, Kody. If you don’t want to. She trusts us to stay here, I mean…”

“Come on.” Kody slowly pushed himself up, dropping the blanket onto the couch behind him. “It’s a new day, let’s go. Can’t sit here moping forever.”

“Are you sure…?” Lumine’s brows furrowed as he turned to look up at the other. Don’t push yourself… He tacked on silently.

Kody huffed, frowning at Sera first, and then Lumine. “I mean. Ask her if she’s actually thinking of going out before eating breakfast, just running off of coffee is a stupid idea.”
