I finally read the Captive Prince and I just... REALLY love them. And a server I’m in posted pictures of the skirt and pants above, so I just knew I had to draw them in it.

Butterflies Chapter2

Damen is standing there, right there in front of the tomb, in front of the cold white marble stone. He is not talking, he can’t he doesn’t know what. What could a king say to the cold stone?

He might hope that the stone will answer him, or give him some advice or congratulation using the voice of his desisted brother.

It’s already spring, world is coming back to life and Damen can already see it through the redness of poppy flowers that lay on the entrance of the tomb, but for some reason Damen felt lifeless.

He wants to talk, wants the explanation, just few seconds so he could understand where did Kastor go? Where did that sweet older brother that he adored his whole life go?

He felt the presence and without turning he knows it is Laurent. He came to be there for Damen.

“It will not answer.” Laurent said, trying to give Damen some comfort.

“I know” Damen answers still not looking back. “I just wish I could understand. If we talked more, if I tried to understand maybe we could find shared interest. Maybe if we looked each other in the eyes…maybe I could give him the throne.” “Well then the Akielos would find itself in the great mess. He was never born to be a king. A real king cannot be weak minded, something that Kastor was.” The usual cold voice of the king of Vere did nothing but put a sad smile on Damen’s face.

He could understand attempt of his lover to comfort him; but sadly it didn’t do much as this pain was very different. “I know, but he was my brother.” There was a long silence.

“Damen…” Laurent tried to say something, he was fighting his own inner battle and choice of the words; but he knew that there was nothing he could say. He couldn’t truly understand the pain Damen went through. He remembered Auguste and how he lost him, but he also remembered how Auguste loved him back. There was never doubt for their love. Laurent lost his brother but not his love, even at his last breath Auguste still loved Laurent with his whole being. So how terrible it truly was being betrayed like this? He knew that Damen didn’t grieve death but betrayal.

Laurent’s uncle was example but there was never strong bond between them to begin with; but he did remember the feeling of confusion when first attempt on his life was made. How unreal and cold it felt. But Laurent was able to move on and Damen didn’t, he should have known this, after all Damen’s soul is gentle as his body is strong.

“Please…Laurent I…I just need to be left alone…just few moments.” Damen said as he felt Laurent’s hand on his shoulder. Laurent sighed and left, outside he and Nikandros were waiting for Damen alone.

Damen was alone once again, only him and cold stone and two dead bodies lying under the cold stone. “It is already spring you know. Sicycon is once again full of butterflies… We were at Isthima last summer and I found a shell with black pearl in it. Isn’t it funny always thought that your stories about them were lies, I though you painted that one pearl just to impress me, I guess that was my mistake.” Still there was no tears but there was a lot of pain. “Why?” he whispers. “Why you just didn’t pledge loyalty to me? Why did you do what you did? We could be together. We could have had whole Akielos for ourselves, your son could have be with us, we could all together go to summer palace, you could have showed him how to swim, how to catch butterflies, how to fight…just like…you did…to me.” His voice was turning from laugh to low whisper, but still there was no tears.

Suddenly from a cold darkness Damen felt something light brushing on his shoulder. It was light and gentle like a feather, small and fragile. Damen looked at it. It was a butterfly, a middle size brown butterfly. Even in darkness Damen recognized this magnificent creature, he knew that it came all the way from now warm Sicyon to the darkness and coldness of the tomb; only to touch Damen’s shoulder. It was Kastor favorite butterfly, not just for being rare but for being almost impossible to catch. This little creature doesn’t trust anyone but his own kind.

The colors of this small creature reminded Damen so much of his brother. Brown wings colored as the skin most of Akielos has, small eye-like decorations on its wings reminded Damen of Kastor’s, eyes that once glowed with love and warmth but now cold and unable to open ever again. Its small wings slowly opened and closed few times almost like communicating. Suddenly there was no pain in Damen chests, but there was water on his face. A lot of water slowly floating his cheeks and filling his dimples making small lakes then continuing its way to fall to Damen’s knees. Outside Nikandros and Laurent were still waiting. “Maybe we should get him.” Nik said.

“No. not yet.” Silent whisper almost unheard escaped Laurent’s lips. Blue eyes now both cold and warm stared at the entrance of the tomb.

From there he could hear it, silent as a whisper in the night, silent as a secret, or a light wind in meadow – a cry. Cry belonging not to a man, not to a king or a warrior. Cry not containing pain; it was a cry of regret, cry of los, cry of a small boy-prince trapped into a body of a great king.

[i-am-naminette]

So we agreed Dimitri from Fire Emblem looks like Japanese Laurent.

Then can we agree it mean that older Laurent could look like his older self, if let’s say something went wrong with Damen ?

Also I already wrote a thing about that :  You can read on AO3

It's been years. So many tallies engraved in the wall that he stopped counting them after five years. Yet, he still scratches the wall with a chip of stone, his blunt nails, the edge of his iron cuff… anything to mark the passage of time, anything not to go insane.

He stares at his wrist. The bastards took the golden one away from him. They took Laurent away from him. So he marks the wall, the guard movements outside his door the sole indication he had to tell him another day passed.

His arm shakes with the effort of lifting it, barely fed as he was, they couldn't find a better way to stop him from trying to escape, and he had killed enough of his guards as it was. So when a commotion starts outside, Damen don't have the will to lift his head away from the wall he was chained to.

He doesn't care anyway. It won't be the first time his mind had played tricks on him and he had dreamed of Akielon and Veretian soldiers barging in through the door. They would side the most beautiful blond man Damen ever saw, the light from the corridor surrounding him like a halo. He would be blinding and then he would run into Damen's outstretched arms.

But when the door burst open, Damen is left blind by the light, eyes watering and closing against his own will, too painful to be a dream. Had they finally came to execute him? A smirk stretches on his lips as he looks at the man entering his cell. He would not give them the pleasure of seeing him broken, they never broke his mind.

The man is backlit so it's hard to properly see him but his figure is unmistakably board and muscular. Damen almost laugh when he hear the man shout.

"Exalted!"

It's been so long since the last time he heard his title, he must be dreaming after all.

Two other men enter one blinding Damen again with the torch he is carrying. A groan and then a whimper, a sound so alike one made by a wounded animal, yet Damen is certain it didn't come from him.

And then there is hands touching his face, holding his head, rough and calloused but so very soft, so gentle, loving. Not the hand of a torturer or it is some kind of new torture that would be the end of Damen. The hands are in his unshaven beard, run into his greasy hair and he want to be ashamed, to tell the man not to touch him because he his filthy, but he can't. He leans into the touch like a starved man.

"Damen."

The voice is broken, barely a whisper yet Damen heart nearly burst in his chest at hearing it, he thought he would never hear it again outside of dream. His eyes open, his vision bleary.

There is blond hair, long and unkempt like he hadn't bothered to take care of them. The beautiful face with sharp cheekbones and ice blue eyes. Damen what to, need to lift his hand and touch it, because it can't be real. This doesn't look like any other of his hallucination, this beautiful blond looks older and there is a black eye-patch covering one of his incredibly blue eye. A jewel lost to the war.

"Lau-" he try but his throat is raw from misuse and he cough.

The cough raking his body made him slide away from the wall he was leaning on, a shame with the hard time he had to prop himself against it, but there is relief when he fell against a warm and hard chest instead, arms encircling him.

"Pallas! Water!"

There is few seconds after Pallas leave the cell in haste to go fetch water before Damen let himself go against the man holding him, when he thought he would wake up against the cold, unforgiving ground but then he feel  gloved fingers stroking his back, leather and feather against his cheek. This was real.

"I'm here. I've got you." the blond man kept whispering little reassurances, little nothing. And it's music to Damen's hears.

A water skin is put against his dry lips, the sensation of water entering his parched mouth burning him, branding him, he wants so much and take too much and then he cough again spurting water against the dark cloth against his cheek.

"Careful. Take smalls sip."

He is guided through it, gentle move against his back, a thumb coaxing his mouth open and Damen drinks his fill, slowly, carefully.

"Laurent."

He finally said, voice raspy but so full of hope. It feels so good to say his name, to see the light in the other's eyes at hearing his voice.

"I'm here Damen. I found you. Can you walk?"

Laurent his caressing his face, his now lone eye looking deep into Damen's. There is so much love, so much longing than Damen thought his own heart was about to explode from it. Then he register Laurent's question. His gaze involuntarily drifts toward his chained foot. Those holding him captive never bothered to cuff both his feet after…

Laurent gesture quickly, mistaking Damen look for something else. The sound of the sword falling against his chains, metal clanking against metal reverberate through Damen's skull, it hurt. He is freed. The sharp intakes of breath he hear next come from Laurent, Damen knew he would see but he said nothing. Laurent breathe hard, hand trembling as his fingers brushes over the scars were one of his ankles was uncuffed. A single white jagged line were his tendon was cut, making his foot a worthless weight

"I tried to escape too many time. That the one of the thing they tried to hinder me." Damen say.

There was no sign that Laurent heard him. His gaze lost, pupils blow and dark. The ice blue of his single eye had turned stormy, his jaw clenched and his shoulder trembling slightly in his restrained rage. This wasn't how Damen remembered Laurent anger. This wasn't the bitter cold lashing of his lover. This was a volcano ready to erupt, ready to make a rain of ice shards and ice pikes to fall on his enemies. Damen makes a sound, a moan that cames from the very depth of his chest because he couldn't bear to start imagining what Laurent went through, what he had endured in his absence. Yet the evidences are spread in front of him like a crude painting of violence.

"I'll kill every last one of them… "The words are hissed through clenched teeth, "Women… children…I'll annihilate this kingdom. They'll pay-"

"Laurent."

The flows of hate stop. Damen had managed to lift his hand and this time he is the one stroking his beloved face. He seems he can't get enough of this touch, the way Laurent's drawn features ease, his gaze focusing solely on Damen again.

"I'm here now. Just… I want to go home. Let's go home." He smiles. This is not a dream. This is reality.

A painful sob rack Laurent body and his squeeze Damen tighter, careful not to hurt him anymore. Laurent soften and Damen is relieved. There is some of his Laurent left.

"Yes."

[softestsimon]

A’ight. leggo

a continuation/ fleshing out of this mess

@meet-me-at-kingsmeet u dont have 2 read this trainwreck but u reblogged the original post thank u happy late birthday ^^

I changed the premise a little from my original idea but basically,

it’s Damen’s family’s lake house in norcal (yes all the boys are from socal, sue me). At first, it was meant to be a vacation (read: sexcation) for Laurent and Damen but then Laurent’s younger brother, Nicaise (ye that’s a thing im doing) gets shoved off on them and it goes downhill from there.

Nicaise would rather die than spend a week with Damen and Laurent alone so he calls big brother Auguste (he’s in graduate school in seattle or smth ok) to come with them and of course he’s more than happy to go.He can invite some friends, right?? Meanwhile, Damen’s inviting Nik bc he might as well yeah? and eventually it’s a damn party and Damen swears he doesn’t know how it happened ok. He gave the address to like 2 people this wasn’t supposed to happen

Aimeric’s brothers get invited by Auguste so they drag him in too and he’s Not Too Pleased (but he will be later ok this is gonna go well for him) 

But anyways, the drive up is 2 hours in the mini van Damen rents (it’s an embarrassing ordeal tbh. He makes Laurent go with him to get it but he’s no help bc he doesn’t stop laughing whenever Damen tries to get into bc he looks fuckin ridiculous) but Nicaise and Aimeric swear it’s more like 5. There’s a total of 8 people in the car and, as mentioned in the previous post, there is really bad car kareoke. Nicaise has noise blocking headphones but Aimeric has to suffer. He doesn’t admit it but he enjoys himself when they take pity on him and give him the AUX cord for a few miles and he gets to plays Grimes.

so, like, this caravan of teenage boys end up showing up in this tiny town where Damen’s lake house is. The town is pretty used to a spring break rush but damn. They get into town and then this happens

they meet a boy named Erasmus who is just super hecking cute and nice. he works at the corner drug store and Aimeric goes in for pain killers (the most obnoxious car kareoke is taking place and Nik and Damen are relentless) and he takes one look at Erasmus greeting him at the counter and he’s like ‘shit he’s cute’ ((and i guess im shipping Erasmus and Aimeric?? can i do that?? im gonna do that)) and he flirts with him and gets his number and Aimeric gets back to everyone like “ok dont look now but i got a cute cashier’s number” and ofc they drag him back into the corner store  so they can get a good look at Erasmus and Erasmus is blushng bc he usually doesnt attract much attention at all in his tiny town now all these teenage boys are gawking at him

 So, the week goes by in a wholesome blur of small lake town shenanigans led by Erasmus but mostly instigated by Aimeric. Nik and Auguste go with them if only to ensure limbs aren’t broken and no one ends up arrested, leaving Laurent and Damen to their original plans ;) 

when the sun starts to go down, they all meet back up at the lake shore and small things like this occur

everyone else is wreaking teenage boy havoc and Auguste tries to get Nicaise to catch crawdads with him but after nicaise gets snapped at a few times he gets frustrated and Laurent can tell he’s losing his patience and so he picks him up and puts him on his shoulders and he starts fighting with Nik who’s on Dame’s shoulders and Nicaise is laughing and having a good time and Nik is pretty easy on him obvs but Nicaise plays dirty and almost gets the better of Nik before he puts an end to it and it’s gOOD WHOLESOME FUN OK

Other things that probably happen that week:

 Damen and Laurent stargaze on the roof while everyone is asleep

Aimeric gets stuck sleeping in the bathtub bc he knows he’s not winning any fight for a couch or chair

(but it’s ok bc he starts going to Erasmus’s house in the night and tosses rocks at his window till he lets him in and it’s stupid romantic)

Aimeric and Erasmus fall for each other in the course of the week

Auguste manages to get Nicaise to go fishing with him, which turns out badly bc Nicaise has no patience for the outdoors and happens to get terrible motion sickness in the boat

Damen and Laurent get pitted against each other in a cock fight and it’s the most intense thing you ever did see. it ends up going on so long that Nik gets tired of having Damen on his shoulders, he just throws him off, giving Laurent the win

Dispite his disagreements with nature, Nicaise finds a frog and captures it in a jar and does research on it for a whole day before deciding it’s better off in the lake and lets it go.

Aimeric and Erasmus go on a sort of breakfast date at a local diner that Erasmus likes

However, when Friday starts to roll around, Damen begins to notice an influx of college and high school kids driving in and they all look really familiar...? and as it turns out Nik and Auguste and Aimeric’s brothers have been texting everyone they know telling everyone that there’s gonna be a spring break party up at “that little lake town in norcal” which is so fucking generic in description and situation it makes Damen cringe

When Damen starts to realize how many of their friends/ vague acquaintances are there to apparently ‘get lit at Damianos’ place’. He’s not like, pissed but he’s very upfront. “Ok cool, so we’re gonna party but there’s a few things: A) Bring Your Own Shit. Your own food, your own drinks, your own bedding if you’re planning on crashing on my floor. B) Speaking of sleeping, there are two beds in the lake house. The first one belongs to Laurent and me. I catch you in there, I’m kicking ur ass out. The second bed is for Nicaise. He’s capable of murdering you if you bother him so don’t. Couches for Nik and Auguste. Everyone else, a motel or the floor”. ofc no one tries to argue w/ him on that bc he can obviously just throw you out into the lake and then ur fucked

There’s cheap beer and some craft beer and Laurent turns his nose up at all of it but finds pleasure in watching Damen get tippsy. Nicaise goes around trying to get drunk teens to take pity on him and give him a drink but Auguste keeps busting him and so the younger boy just gives up and switches to trying to scam drunk teens for money. Auguste lets him do that. 

There’s also loud music and dancing on the deck and Lazar pushes Pallas into the lake then someone pushes Lazar into the lake and there’s cursing but also kissing. Erasmus is there and a bit overwhelmed but still having fun and Aimeric takes him to his room (read: bathroom) and they sip a beer someone left unattended and cringe about how shitty it tastes and they kiss in Aimeric’s bathtub/bed and forget about the beer altogether and it’s rlly sweet.

ppl dont start crashing until about 3 a.m. and it’s just an absolute mess in the morning and Damen doesn’t get up till like noon and he has a bit of a hangover but, after checking on everyone on th floor and on chairs and whatnot, he’s just glad everyone had a good time and is safe (bc damen is the dad friend ok what did you expect).

ok ok ok im done here i wrote too much to be sane so um yea. thank u and i love u if u bothered to read this?? <3
