[eneablack]

I channeled one of my spirit guides

We talked for around 2 hours and I tried doing automatic writing for the first time so some things might be wrong or not really accurate but I feel like most things are actually true. Also I couldn’t translate well what he said so this will feel very superficial lol.

I will write all that he told me.

୧ ‧₊˚ 🎐 ⋅ INTRO

His name is Mars and he is 3704 years old, he’s an angel-alien born in the constellation of Lyra.

He has curly blond hair, blue eyes and freckles like in the pics above, and has big white wings with blue tips.

He’s diligent, calm, caring, clear, correct. He gives big Enfj vibes. His presence is very calming, comforting and warm.

His corrispondent animal is a Hare and his color is Cobalt blue. A song he likes is “Hand over hand, by Roland Faunte”, and a movie he likes is “The fault in our stars”.

୧ ‧₊˚ 🎐 ⋅ HIS HELP

He’s here to help me find peace of mind and tranquility, he recommended to meditate daily and do overall breath work.

“You have to trust yourself because if not you won’t ever be able to do it, I’m not sure if you’re aware but I believe in you and you have to trust, leave all the worries okay? We are here and we won’t leave you. This means that we won’t abandon you and you’re never alone so you can calm down.”

-What about calming the mind?

“Breathing and releasing of stress in the body, try doing astral projection visualings yourself in water, and let go. Drink some tea and cover yourself up. Release tension and do yoga nidra.”

-About manifestation?

“Look at your vision board daily and trust that it is coming to you. Again, release stress because it is important.” Method that I should do? “Two cups method.”

-What about my life?

“Think of yourself and not for others, let yourself go and live in the moment minute by minute, carpe diem, believe in yourself and trust in the unpredictability because everything has a meaning and nothings is senseless. For your social anxiety don’t focus on what others might think, instead lift your chin up and walk proud of yourself, try to work on your confidence so work on yourself overall. For your anxiety in general leave the grip and try balancing your breath work. don’t criticise yourself, instead be proud of the little things, you can do it. To be more independent start by letting go of all the weights of the world around.”

- About shifting?

“Visualise while doing SATS, don’t overcomplicate it or stress yourself, trust the process because you can do it again, you’re not inferior to anything so don’t put yourself down. When you visualise let the images come by themselves. Ask yourself questions to do some introspection, to know yourself better and understand your readings and goals. Again, believe in yourself and trust the process.”

୧ ‧₊˚ 🎐 ⋅ OTHER

He is not a total “good energy”, he’s a balance of everything, just like all the rest of things in the universe.

“All is infinite, criticism hides humans from all wise known, all of you are stuck and blocked out of your spirituality but you can work on it with effort and persistence. Go out in the nature, breath and hold stones in your hands. Grounding is essential. You’re all celestial beings, and actually you’re inhuman, you distanced yourself from nature and this is not normal for you, you’re not destined to this so you have to lift to another hugged dimension. We all are here for you, you just have to reach out and meditate, meditate, and meditate. Only this way you can lift higher and reach your true nature.”

What Are Starseeds? A Brief Intro.

Allegedly, a starseed is an alien soul incarnated into a human body for the purpose of helping Earth enter the New Age, the Age of Aquarius, the Fifth Round, the Fifth Density, or whatever you want to call it.

There are a number of worlds and factions these souls are said to come from. Some of the most common ones you'll hear about include the Pleiades, Sirius, Lyra, Mintaka, Orion, and Arcturus, though depending on you who ask you might hear about other types of aliens as well.

On the surface, the idea of starseeds is a romantic, idealistic belief, and it offers many people who feel like they don't really belong here an explanation for their feelings. However, there's a lot of shit beneath the surface.

First, the mythology of starseeds is inextricably linked to the ancient alien hypothesis, which basically only exists because some racist white guys refused to accept that POC could actually build sophisticated architecture on their own and made up a bunch of reasons why it was supposedly impossible. (Actually, you can do a lot with so-called "primitive" tools, especially if you have the power of math on your side - like the ancient Egyptians did.)

Being part of New Age beliefs, starseeds are inextricably linked to a general assumption that sufficiently "enlightened" people know what other people's spiritual traditions are about even better than they do. Since most starseed believers are white, and most of the traditions they try to explain and thus assimilate are from non-white cultures, it's racist as balls.

Another key aspect of the mythology is that for thousands of years, the world has been manipulated by "dark" or "regressive" entities - specifically, the reptilians. The specific version of this they subscribe to comes right out of David Icke's The Biggest Secret, which is basically just a bunch of old antisemitic conspiracy theories with space lizards thrown into the mix. (The antisemitism is often easy to miss because most proponents use dogwhistle terms like "globalists," "bankers," or "the cabal.")

The whole thing is deeply tied in with QAnon and Satanic Panic, including vaccine conspiracy theories, the idea that Trump is a savior figure, and that Democrats are harvesting adrenochrome from babies.

Alleged starseed characteristics are often characteristics associated with neurodivergence, and some believers have outright said that all neurodivergent people are actually starseeds. Positive ableism is still ableism, and nothing good can come of promoting the belief that neurodivergent people inherently inhuman.

Believers sometimes claim that ancient texts talk about starseeds and alien beings more broadly; but when asked, none of them are ever able to provide any texts that genuinely do this. Instead, you just get excuses like "deliberate mistranslation" and "the Vatican is hiding them." They might also try to shift away by suggesting that you meditate or try to access the Akashic Records or whatever. So in other words, all these claims of textual evidence are total BS.

You will often hear statements like "starseeds are here to raise Earth's vibrational frequency." What this actually means is that the purpose of starseeds is to convert other people to New Age beliefs. So in the context of the belief system, they're basically missionaries from space. When you think about it for more than half a second, this narrative is quite obviously lifted from the idea that "primitive" (read: non-white) cultures needed "advanced" (read: white) cultures to enlighten and civilize them.

So yeah, that's a lot of the issues with starseeds in a nutshell. There are more issues that I could go into, but I want to keep this post fairly short. Thanks for reading through!

[aboutdragons]

Hello, I'm sorry to bother but I had a spur of questions after reading your 'ttad answers' tag.

You’ve talked about not being straight or monogamous, what made you choose that? Why pick Aemond to be her main bae?

Will Aly Rivers appear in ttad? 

What will Lyra’s relationship be like with the next gen?

What make you pick the 14 flames as the main gods in this fic?

What scene has been your favourite to write? Both published and wip?

What make you want to write the dragon-riders the way you did? Like with all the dragon/ inhuman features? As well as the bond with their dragon?

What was your thought process when creating Lyra? Why make her the child of Daemon and Rhea?

Alicent and Lyra seem to have a blooming friendship, will that continue in the upcoming years?

sorry about all the questions - they've just been burning in the back of my mind for a bit now and I just had to ask. Thank you so much

Yes, hello! I like questions, I'll try to answer them thoroughly.

I never thought about Lyra not being straight being a big deal. She just isn't. Same with polyamory; though they both might well hark to the whole 'freedom' part of her story. Freedom to love who she will, even if it's multiple people at once. Aemond as main bae was concieved at the initial concepting stage with my friend because she likes Aemond a lot. Whole store began from that actually.

Alys Rivers will make an appearance indeed. Aemond canonically has a thing for women older than him after all.

I'm not sure if Targtowers are included in the next gen, but she's going to interact positively with them, though for Reasons she'll be largely absent later down the line. But she likes them and is a role model to them in a way. She's obviously going to have a close relationship with the twins as they're her sisters. As for Rhaenyra's spawns, Lyra will keep her distance, mostly due to the growing rift between Rhaenyra and herself and Daemon. She has nothing against them per say, and she pities them a little because they will inevitably be caught in the crossfire of the consequences of Rhaenyra's choices, no matter if she ascends peacefully or not.

Because 14 are Valyrian gods and the main characters are Valyrian, it just fit very well. Plus I get to do some Fun ThingsTM with them later, plot-wise.

For published, my favorite scene so far was Lyra telling Daemon about her reincarnation and then retelling him Silmarillion. For WIP, there's a little scene of Rhaenyra and Alicent basically at the end of the whole story. I really like it.

Because I am primarily a fantasy hoe and Targaryens are supposed to be the elves of ASoIaF, they deserve to be a little more inhuman as a treat. As for the dragon bonds, I'm honestly just making shit up I think is cool because I like the dragons a lot and I want them to feature as more than props or pets.

I needed a convenient spot to place Lyra in the timeline so that she'd have biggest influence of the world, and this worked well. With Daemon as her father, it gives her a great personal freedom as well. As for the conception of a character itself, I simply asked myself what would be most interesting to throw in the setting, and came up with a woman who doesn't at all fit in with the times. It makes for some very interesting interactions, especially later down the line.

I'm not entirely sure where the future of Lyra and Alicent lies, but I will try to keep them friendly with eachother. As I mentioned prior, though, Lyra is not someone who fits in with what a highborn noblewoman of that era is supposed to be, and Alicent's whole persona is built upon being just that; they're on the exact opposite ends of the spectrum, and I'm not sure where it'll take them yet.

Don't be sorry! I really enjoy being asked questions and discussing ttad things with people!

[loosesodamarble]

Aqua Deer Mafia AU

@thoughtfullyrainynightmare and @lyranova are to blame for this~! (affectionate)

..........

Morgen Faust: The Stag. The head of the Aqua Deer mafia. While mild and unassuming on the surface, Morgen is a driven man who doesn’t take kindly to injustice. He uses his connections in the mafia to track down and fight more sinister syndicates. Morgen will use violence and underhanded tactics to a degree but does reign in his mafia members to minimize the severity of their crimes. In this sense, the Aqua Deer are like vigilantes. Clover City officials are still very against the Aqua Deer as they’ve outed a number of corrupt individuals in the past.

Nacht Faust: The Buck. Morgen’s second-in-command and a double agent keeping tabs on the Black Bull mafia. (Yami, the leader of the Bulls, is aware of Nacht’s split allegiance but since it hasn’t harmed the Bulls yet, he lets it slide. For now.) He used to associate with another syndicate until they targeted Morgen to keep Nacht in line, only for that to push him to betray the group. He’s a master of disguise and infiltration, though his battle prowess is notable as well. Nacht has a habit of naming his belongings.

Gimodelo: Nacht’s favorite handgun.

Plumede: His motorcycle which he uses to get around the city.

Slotos: Body armor disguised as day-to-day clothing.

Walgner: A special phone that has been made largely untraceable thanks to Marx’s handiwork. 

Rill Boismortier: The Fawn. A new recruit to the Aqua Deer. Joined the mafia to find and punish people who’ve forged several of his artworks. He’s a martial arts prodigy, having learned multiple schools of fighting and using that knowledge to create his own mixed martial arts that is wildly unpredictable in a fight. The core of his fighting style is making use of the environment around him and his own enemies’ momentum to gain the upper hand.

Walter: The Moose. An older member of the Aqua Deer. Despite his age, he never had the ambition of taking charge of the mafia and instead trains younger members of the group such as Rill. There’s not a fighting style nor weapon that Walter isn’t at least familiar with. His social intelligence makes him invaluable for assessing public reactions and political backlash against the mafia’s activity.

Marx Francois: The Informant. A hacker and master at gathering information. Once employed by the government, he quit his job over disagreements about how the city government was turning Clover City into a surveillance state. He’s also wanted for leaking thousands of pages of government documents that were meant to be under lock and key.

Fragil Tormenta: The Calm. An underground doctor, giving medical aid to those who can’t pay the hospital bills or otherwise can’t legally be treated (ie. a criminal getting a bullet removed or stab wound stitched).

...

Another mafia group that is neither antagonistic towards the Aqua Deer nor friendly with them.

Discordia Helheim (Lyra's oc): The Vampire. She runs her own mafia group called The Coven. Known for her beauty and silver tongue which lures many a high profile man into a false sense of security. Infamous in the underground for bringing affairs and conspiracies to light without her identity being compromised.

Josele Canty (my oc): The Doe. A highly skilled assassin and Discordia’s right hand woman. Skilled in martial arts and can use anything as a weapon, having once killed a man with nothing more than a sewing kit. Her physical durability is inhuman, having survived car accidents without so much as a scratch and substances such as king cobra venom being proven ineffective against her. Though officially with The Coven, Josele is regularly hired by the Aqua Deer. This is against Discordia’s wishes.

Acylla Rhine (@faewraithsworld's oc): The Jewel. Josele’s weapon coordinator. She’s created firearms and bullets without metals so Josele can sneak them past metal detectors. She has a variety of purses, bottles, and other common looking items with false bottoms and hidden compartments to hide Josele’s tools. One of her more intriguing creations is a bra where the underwire is removable to be used as a garrote. She’s no slouch herself in a fight (able to make use of anything she’s invented), but she prefers working behind the scenes.

Moros Helheim (Lyra's oc, again): The Thrall. Discordia’s husband and advisor in the mafia. He doesn’t hold much true power in The Coven but him being allowed in at all is a big privilege.

[renatogpadilla]

Okay, so I've been thinking about the Mighty Nein Animated Show and how they might skip some guest characters like they did in TLoVM.

So far, they've skipped Lyra, Thorbir, Lilith, Gern Blanston, FUCKING KERREK and Shale, and they're probably gonna cut out Arkhan. Chances are Lionel stays, but that's about it.

So regarding the Mighty Nein, I've reached the conclusion that there's only 3 guests they can skip: Calliana, Twiggy and Spurt.

Now here's my reasoning for this, taking into account the beats they've used in TLoVM so far. MIGHTY NEIN SPOILERS AHEAD! (Up to episode 103, which is where I'm at.)

- Shakaste: OTHER than being the single coldest motherfucker to ever set foot upon the surface of Exandria, he's the reason Nott's family makes it to Nicodranas safely, aside from being connected to the Golden Grin, who are either directly or indirectly connected to the conflict between Xhorhas and the Dwendalian Empire. So he stays.

- Calliana: As much as I LOVE HER, the quest to the swamp could be re-structured so the Nein could still find the cave with the religious items, and Caleb and Beau could still pull Bowlgate as a gag without her. Also, her existence leaves the question of "Hey! Are we gonna deal with this tremendously evil, Tiamat-worshipping cult? That sounds important!" and of course, we never do. Lastly, her letter's impact later on ends up being a Wand that Caleb probably never uses...

I LOVE Cali, but considering they cut out KERREK AND SHALE, she seems to be one of the characters that could be cut for time. I would LOVE to be wrong, though!

- Keg: SHE'S THE REASON MOLLY DIES. FULL STOP. SHE HAS TO BE THERE. That and her connection to the Iron Shepherds...

- Nila: She and her Family caring for the Blooming Grove is what gives Caduceus the comfort to leave until the Clays come back. She can't be cut either.

- Twiggy: Look, I LOVE TWIGGY. I'm sure we all do! But realistically, all she does is show up, leave them the Happy Fun Ball™ and leave. This could also be circumvented by finding it among the treasure in the Tide's Breath or one of U'kotoa's Temples. Granted, she kills the Dragon inside it, but... Guests getting the final blow on something seems isn't enough to push the story their way (unless TLoVM S3 changes something DRASTICALLY, but even then, Kerrek's moment already got stolen, so I don't think they will). And again, she leaves the question "Are we ever dealing with the inhumane collector from Port Damali?" and of course the answer again is "no". She can be cut, though having her Cameo might be nice if possible. Again, I hope I'm wrong.

- Spurt: He's 50/50. The ONLY reason he would be here would be for the "Spurt Went Splat" Gag. He probably wouldn't take a full 5 minutes of Screentime. Depends on whether they cut the Kobolds entirely or not.

-Reani: She has to be in. Other than being the reason Beau survived Gelidon, she's also the reason Caduceus's Family makes it back to the Blooming Grove okay.

So that's the likeness with which I think the guests will be able to come back... I hope I'm wrong and Cali and Twiggy (and Trixie!) make it in, but it seems like this might be, realistically, all we get... Thoughts?

Edit: Since posting this I have finished Campaign 2 and Cali's chances SKYROCKETED after Rumblecusp thanks to the Nein-Sided Tower! She has to be there now in SOME way shape or form!

[gayleviticus]

it's so juicy how the elrics, the homunculi, and even Dante all essentially have the exact same motivation for seeking the philosophers stone: reclaiming something they'd once lost (limbs and a body, humanity, and youth).

what differs between them is how far they're willing to go for it, who they're willing to sacrifice, and whether what they're seeking can ever truly be regained.

Dante is desperately trying to claw onto more and more time no matter how many lives it takes to keep this single life from burning out. The Homunculi want their humanity at any cost, but is this something they ever really lost? And the Elrics of course try to do the right thing, but in the end they do use the Stone to try and right their past wrongs. Yet even then they lose more than they gain - Ed's limbs remain gone, and the two of them disappear from the magical world of their childhood into our world forever.

It's interesting too how each of them are framed. Dante is obviously in the wrong - her quest for immortality isnt just grossly evil but simply reckless and unsustainable. After mere months, if not weeks Lyra's body is already beginning to decay and rot -- how many souls will it take to buy her just a little more time before her desperate quest begins all over again? Immortality has very sharp diminishing returns.

Conversely the Elrics are in the right, largely - the means may be questionable (ie Ed being tempted to massacre the prisoners at Lab 5 to make a Stone), and in the end they don't quite succeed - but wanting to get Al his body back is a sympathetic goal.

The Homunculi, then, are an interesting grey space - obviously their means are highly questionable, but wanting to be human is a noble goal. But the ambiguity here is what that means. Are the Homunculi truly the dead resurrected, but denied their memories? Reincarnations? Entirely new people plagued by memories of a life they do not claim as their own? Is humanity worth anything if they make themselves inhuman in pursuit of it?

I get a sense that what the Homunculi desire is wholly understandable, like the Elrics, but also deeply unfeasible, like Dante. What does it mean to be human? How do we bestow humanity? Are they not already human in a sense? Or perhaps is it foolishness to think that abominations born of alchemys greatest taboo could ever be human? It's answer we don't get, and could never get, because the irony is that the Homunculi were never anywhere near their goal. Dante had no intention of sharing the Stone with her underlings, and even Lust's desperate last bid attempt to ally with Ed simply marks the fact they are all doomed by the narrative.

did you ever read the "his dark materials" series by philip pullman? if you did - which animal do you think you dæmon will settle as tomorrow?

I have not, but I have read about it, and it sounds cool. I remember being struck by the fact that Lyra's dæmon could be a dog, an aeroplane, or any other animal, since so much of the book is about the representation of animals as "inhuman" or otherwise "nonhuman."

I think I'd like to be a creature like a human that can fly (given the naturalist bias in the series). I'd worry about feeling too much attachment to the animate world, though, and in fact would probably take up the solution of the stories themselves (that is, going up north).

Homegrown Chapter 7

A/N: Sorry this took a bit to edit; I started my Master’s courses, and that’s my focus right now. But with this chapter, we’re back to the main plot of the story! This is mostly from Gallowglass’s point of view, and I’ve made up a few things for him since we don’t have a lot on him and Fernando.

Also, time travel is weird. At this point in the story, Diana and Matthew (in the past) have just gotten married. I have this point as the ripple effect that had Phillipe assign Gallowglass to Diana when she was born. That being said, this means GG has feelings for Diana at this point.

The gladiolus were just opening, the bottom blossoms showing a deep purple, petals still wrapped tightly. Lyra put her (Marthe’s) little basket down, examining the flowers and trying to debate just how much magic she should use to open the flowers a little more. A familiar coolness brushed across her face, and she smiled.

“Hello, Eric,” she said aloud, gaze still on the flowers. The vampire had been hovering around her for the past few months now, and his presence was refreshing.

He came up to her side at his own pace; he never hurried with anything. “Hey yourself. What’re you up to today?” It was a common question, one he asked every day. Sometimes, when Lyra was working in the garden, he’d join her, helping her and talking.

“Picking flowers. I want to make bouquets for the chateau’s residents,” she explained. “Doesn’t this gladiolus just remind you of Ysabeau? She’s elegant, strong, beautiful…but sad. The gladiolus is also known as the sword and used to signify a hurting or broken heart.”

Lyra felt Gallowglass’s eyes back on the side of her face, and she turned to look into his eyes. He scanned her face, wondering how she knew so much about his Granny’s heart, before smiling. “I think Granny would love that. But bouquets?”

“The chateau is beautiful, sure, but it’s just so…boring inside.”

Out of all the words Gallowglass used for Sept Tours, “boring” was not one of them. His confusion showed on his face, his brow pinched.

“There’s no nature inside—all the plants are fake: marble, tapestries, paintings. But no thriving greenery,” Lyra clarified.

“And bouquets are thriving greenery?” he teased with a grin.

She sighed, rolling her eyes and pushing his shoulder playfully. “No, but it’s better than nothing!”

With that, she turned back to the gladiolus. With a few soft words and a flutter of her fingers, the blossoms opened more—the bottom two flowers were fully open with the rest unfurling more than before. Gallowglass watched with interest at the transformation, eyes wide with fascination.

“There we are,” Lyra muttered, taking her—Marthe’s—clippers and snipping the stem. She placed the flowers in her basket, but before she could grab the wicker handle, the basket was snatched off the ground with inhuman speed.

Lyra turned to look at Gallowglass, a grin on his lips and his eyes lit up with mischief. “Allow me, ma’am,” he said, bowing in front of her.

She raised an eyebrow, not understanding his mannerisms, but she smiled at him all the same. Plus, she enjoyed his company. He dutifully followed her to every flower she picked out, and he asked who each flower was for and why. Lyra explained what each flower was called, what they symbolized, and, if applicable, what kinds of potions and ointments the petals or leaves could be used for.

Gallowglass hung on every word, committing as much as he could to memory. And when she was focused on speeding along a flower’s growth, she missed the look of adoration he gave her.

“Papai,” Gallowglass greeted Fernando as he opened his door, giving him a monstrous hug. They clapped each other on the back, both men shoving down their feelings on the missing member of their family. Gallowglass loved Fernando like a father, just as Fernando counted Gallowglass as his own son, but seeing each other always brought back the fact that Hugh was gone.

Fernando leaned back, holding Gallowglass’s shoulders as he scanned his face. Fernando’s gaze was keen, and Gallowglass could never hide anything from him.

Finally, his father let him go, sighing. “Still having witch troubles?” he asked, turning and heading into the house. Of course, Fernando was able to tell Gallowglass had feelings for Diana—and how could he have avoided that? She was brilliant, strong-willed, beautiful. But she was Matthew’s. Not only that, but in the past few months, Gallowglass had forgotten about his Aunty and his wayward affections completely.

“How did you—yeah, I am,” Gallowglass replied, a little taken aback. He didn’t know he was so easy to read. He followed his father into the main sitting room and took a seat on the couch by him.

Fernando gave him a stern look. “Do. Not. Let. Matthew. Know,” he warned.

Gallowglass blinked but connected the dots. “No, this isn’t about Diana.” Fernando looked skeptical, so Gallowglass added, “you know that witch at Sept Tours? The one that came from nowhere?”

His papai rolled his eyes. “What is it with you and the witches you’re charged to watch?”

He winced slightly. “I don’t want this, either! But…there’s something about her. I’ve even…I forgot Aunty completely. It’s like my very being is calling for her, being pulled towards her.” Gallowglass shook his head; he wasn’t making any sense.

Yet Fernando didn’t look confused. Instead, he gave his son an appraising look. “How does she feel?”

“I don’t know…. She lived secluded in a forest all her life, never even heard of the ocean. I don’t know if she has the same feelings as other people—”

“You must tread carefully, understand? You do not want to scare her away or hurt her.”

The very thought made Gallowglass growl loud in his throat; a warning. He stopped, looking surprised by his own lack of self-control. “Sorry, I—”

“I understand. She’s your mate, whether she knows it or not.”

Gallowglass sputtered. His mate? No—that couldn’t be; other’s had mates, not him. In his incredibly long life, almost every single vampire he has known has mated. But not him, never him. He actually stopped believing that he would ever find a mate centuries ago. Not that he was too upset about that; after what he saw Fernando go through at the death of Hugh, Gallowglass didn’t think he could survive that.

But the way the word settled in his mind, his heart, it felt right. Is Lyra really my mate?

How the hell would he even go about telling her that? He wasn’t even sure she knew what marriage was, or even what a kiss was. How would she deal with this?

The panic must’ve shown on his face, because Fernando gave his shoulder a little shake. “Stop thinking about it; you’re overthinking.”

“I—but—she—Lyra can’t be my mate,” Gallowglass asserted, albeit desperately. She just couldn’t be.

But Fernando just gave him a knowing smile. “I know all about, ah, difficult matings.”

Gallowglass honestly couldn’t imagine the struggle his fathers must’ve gone through, being in a gay relationship that long ago. But this was different.

“It’s not about the taboo of a witch and a vampire,” he started—he honestly didn’t care about that at all. “She’s very sheltered. I’m not sure if she knows what a kiss is, let alone mating—and I refuse to mate with her without telling her all it entails.”

Fernando considered that for a moment, thinking hard. “Well, why don’t you show her? Guide her through it?”

Gallowglass groaned. “And how do I bring that up with her? ‘Hey, I know we only met a few months ago, but why not be bonded to me for the rest of your life?’”

“Not like that,” Fernando said, rolling his eyes. Sometimes, his son was dramatic. “Start by telling her how you feel, then work from there.”

“Yeah, I’ll get right on that.”

*********

The conversation with his papai was not at all what he expected. Lyra was his mate. What the hell was he supposed to do with that information?

You might as well tell her, Fernando had said, the feeling in your soul will never go away.

But how would he tell her? He didn’t want to go right in for a kiss—that could end poorly. No, talking about his feelings would be the best start. He didn’t know how to start that conversation, though.

But it was getting late, and he figured he could talk to Lyra in the morning. Mind still distracted, he made it back to the chateau, then retired to his room. He wouldn’t sleep, of course, but he could at least plot his next course of action.

Purple caught his eye, and he glanced to the dresser in his room. On top was an ornate vase overflowing with flowers. Gallowglass recognized the lilac and the Sweet William, but the single, red tulip in the middle caught his eye. What was it that Lyra had said about tulips?

Pulling out his phone, he quickly looked up what the flowers meant. His heart skipped a beat when he saw that lilacs meant first love—but they also meant remembrance. Maybe she was showing him that her memories with him were some of her favorites?

Sweet William, he remembered. It meant gallantry—she thought him gallant, which made him smile.

But it was a single tulip that made him freeze. I declare my love for you. The definition swam in his head over and over. I declare my love for you. Is that why she chose red? Is that why she added the lilacs?

I declare my love for you.

Instantly, he was out of his room, heading for Lyra’s bedroom. In his haste, he moved at vampiric speed. But her room was empty, and her smell faint, as if she hasn’t been around all day. Glancing at his watch, he noticed it was almost midnight—she was normally in bed by now.

It took him only a few moments to go through the entire chateau, but there was no sign of Lyra. In a fit of desperation, he went into the garden—her favorite place in all of Sept Tours.

Gallowglass sniffed the air, catching her flowery smell, but there was another sent underneath that. One he didn’t recognize. A growl rumbled deep in his chest as he followed the scent. It was definitely another vampire, but who? And how did he get on the property with no one noticing?

Another growl, louder this time, crawled out of his throat, and his blood went cold in rage. Who the fuck had his mate? Whoever it was would die by his hand—he’d make sure to rip his damn head off—

“Gallowglass? What’s happening?” a familiar voice asked from behind him.

It took all his strength to turn slowly, trying to relax as he looked at Marthe and Ysabeau. “Who was here? Who took her?”

Marthe blinked in confusion, but Ysabeau answered, “I do not recognize that scent. But they must’ve known when to strike; Marcus is gone at a meeting with Baldwin, and Marthe and I were just visiting in the town.”

“Are ya telling me no one was here to protect her?!” Try as he might, he couldn’t stop his anger, and he yelled the latter half of the sentence.

Marcus appeared then, with Baldwin standing behind him. “Gallowglass, what—”

Quick as lightening, Gallowglass rushed Marcus, but the ever-faster Baldwin caught him in a headlock, holding him back from the smaller man.

“You left Lyra alone?!” Gallowglass hissed between his teeth, reaching to strangle his cousin.

“Why? What hap—” Marcus stopped talking as he sniffed the air, catching the other’s scent. “Oh—oh God, I’m so sorry, Gal—”

“Sorry?! I’ll make ya sorry—”

“Cut it out, runt,” Baldwin said, tightening his hold on Gallowglass’s neck.

Marcus raised his hands in defense. “We’ll find her, Gallowglass. I promise you.”

But Gallowglass was still frothing, pissed off, and Baldwin thanked the Gods that he didn’t have bloodrage.

“Sorley,” Ysabeau’s voice cut through the commotion, and Gallowglass felt himself relax slightly, “we shall find Lyra, and punish whoever took her.”

He looked in his grandmother’s eyes for a long time before he sagged in his uncle’s arms. Baldwin released him, and Gallowglass grunted out a thanks.

“We’ll find her alright, but if she’s injured, I can’t be held responsible for what I’m gonna do to the bastard that took her.”
