WHERE DID LUCIEN SAY HE WANTED TO BE BUTTERFLY WAAHHH i kinda want a butterfly tattoo along with my mars symbol so i’m. looking
It's when he's going into that magical "cocoon" thing in Cognouza and transforms to become one with the Somnovum and the city. It's just one of those glimpses of humanity, the original Lucien and that gentle, playful soul shard that became Molly. Lucien says it here to kinda reassure himself that he isn't afraid of transformation or the death of his old self, ready to be reborn.
The Lucien book has more of a personal backstory reason why he's fond of butterflies, but I think I kinda prefer the notion that he's just always loved them and wanted to be free like one :')
