Lucien Vanserra Week 2024

Day 7: AU (The Little Prince!AU)

@lucienweekofficial

A/N: Lucien, Lucien... what a man! I actually really think he has some ressemblance with the main character in The Little Prince written by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (this book is my favorite book, I 100% recommend reading it). So let me present you Lucien "I'm a mated male" Vanserra The Little Prince AU! Thank you, @sleepyy-ollie , for bringing this project to life with your art! It's beautiful, as always. 🧡

"You're beautiful, but you're empty...One couldn't die for you. Of course, an ordinary passerby would think my rose looked just like you. But my rose, all on her own, is more important than all of you together, since she's the one I've watered. Since she's the one I put under glass, since she's the one I sheltered behind the screen. Since she's the one for whom I killed the caterpillars (except the two or three butterflies). Since she's the one I listened to when she complained, or when she boasted, or even sometimes when she said nothing at all. Since she's my rose."

Quote from the book The Little Prince

"You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed."

Captain Archer Lucien [He/Him]

[viridianevergarden]

I’m sick and tired of hearing these:

“Elain will come around”

“Lucien deserves someone too”

“They’re mated”

“They’ll get along eventually”

Please.

These arguments are literally the most popular arguments that I see all the time in nearly every comment section about them.

Perhaps it’s me being overdramatic or in general a bit of a hot take but I feel like the people who say this have a little 🤏 internalized misogyny.

Like imagine genuinely feeling uncomfortable around somebody who you’re match made with and people continue to debate over whether or not you should “come around” just because the man deserves it.

Just because your dear Lulu deserves it?

It really rubs me the wrong way. What about Elain’s wants? What about her feelings? Her thoughts? As if her body language wasn’t obvious enough of a tell tale sign of her discomfort. Not to mention the fact that Lucien is also uncomfortable around her.

Moreover, regarding my thoughts on Lucien:

I also feel like the same people who say these things are the ones who truly glorify Lucien and think him to be some innocent puppy or just an all around good guy.

Do we not remember the fact that he enabled Tamlin’s abusive tendencies by doing nothing for Feyre? Do we not remember that he tracked Feyre down like some hunting dog to get her back because (mainly) Tamlin wanted her back? (Even then, it was all about Tamlin rather than Feyre, the one actually suffering the most.)

Lucien’s eye widened slightly. “We need to get out of here. Tamlin’s been—he hasn’t been himself. I’ll take you right to—” “No,” I breathed (ACOMAF, ch 47).

All about Tamlin.

I understand Tamlin saved his life. I understand that Tamlin means a lot to Lucien. They’ve been friends for centuries. I get it. But his constant “I’ll try to talk to him” wasn’t enough. I feel like Lucien should’ve been the bigger person in that situation with Feyre. She literally begged him for help.

“I begged you,” I said, the words sharp and breathless. “I begged you so many times to help me, to get me out of the house, even for an hour. And you left me alone, or shoved me into a room with Ianthe, or told me to stick it out.” (ACOMAF, ch 47).

He knew and recognized the fact that Feyre was actively wasting away under Tamlin’s discretion yet he chose to stand by because Tamlin is his friend and a High Lord. It’s honestly no better than kicking an already downed man.

Not to mention the fact that he compared Elain to his dead ex lover? And questions if Elain is even worth the attention or attempt to bond with? If she is even worth risking his life for just to get to the Night Court after betraying Tamlin? (Not very mate-like behavior). Kind of shitty if you ask me.

Lucien isn’t an amazing person, just as everyone else in the book. No one’s a 100% good guy in ACOTAR. But some actions (or rather inactions) are justifiable just as some others are not.

So all this talk about “Lucien deserves love too” while Elain is merely treated as a prop for him because he deserves love and not her too is utterly ridiculous. It’s gotten to the point where I neglect looking into ACOTAR comment sections lol.

Now with all of this being said, I don’t hate Lucien. I don’t love him either. He’s just there for me. There’s plenty wrong that he’s done just as anyone else. I just wish people would stop babying him and glorifying him as if he’s some saint. He deserves better than that.

And most of all, Elain deserves better treatment too. But then again, people in this fandom are ✨delusional✨ and close minded so I don’t think that may happen. Especially not until Elain’s book release.

Rant over.

I'm a bit of a casual enjoyer of Martin Septim x Lucien Lachance, but I also have to laugh a bit because I know in my version of Oblivion if Martin saw Lucien it would be ON SIGHT.

[riotinyellow]

to be honest, as a queer person living in a developing theocratic country, I have trouble relating to queer films that take place in the 21st century first world I find myself relating more to the ones that take place in the early to mid 20th century

I mean, I wouldn't be the person I'm today if it wasn't for "kill your darlings" and "breakfast on pluto"

Parents told me we were going to get ice cream so I dressed in my normal 3 layers of black clothing and platform boots and then apparently we were going to walk there??? In this summer weather??

So as I was melting underneath the sky-candle I just blasted La Chanson De L Oignon through my airpods and marched for 20 minutes just zoning out pretending I was an infantry soldier 👍

Here’s the icecream :D

The British, under General Jeffery Amherst, marched from Lachine through Nazareth Fief (the name used for Griffintown at this time), through the Recollet Gate and into the walled city of Montreal. The Articles of Capitulation of Montreal were signed on September 8 1760, in the British camp before the city of Montréal. Most of the North American fighting ended with the surrender of Montréal.

When you think about the things Rowan and Rhys did to their mates Lucien is a fricking angel. I love them but compared to them Lucien is a saint.

All he does is respect her wishes and gives her space and yet he's so villainized. I don't even ship Elucien like that but the treatment Lucien gets in this fandom is ridiculous.

"He's so horrible he's taking away her choice" and all he did was stand in the same room as her…

[a-m-pyra]

WEEEEEEEELL

I think I'll add some plot to The Cruel Saints cuuuuz...

There are a few things that are unclear and looking for the Holy Grail takes place too quickly.

I want to get on Lucien's nerves some more

And explore enemies to enemies in marriage where one of them fell in love with Victoria and Napo a bit more.

(it's terrifying that, overall, Napoléon became Victoria's best lover)

(I don't even like him)

(no matter whether as a character in a book or as a historical figure)

(asshole)

(but Luc is even bigger asshole)
