So i have this idea about the knights of hell. There can’t be a king and princess without some royal protection. So how do you think the others will react to a Hell Knight Reader? Like reader is like a commander of a group of elite knights. And they came to check up on Charlie and Lucifer! To see if the king and princess are okay after the attack on the hotel.
Brownie points if reader doesn’t smile and are serious all the time! Reader is very dangerous they can and will kill to protect their king and future queen! No romance of course, just platonic relationships. Like Charlie can see reader as an older sibling.
Royal Knight Reader x Lucifer Morningstar + Charlie Morningstar
platonic!˙ᵕ˙✰

Ever Since Lucifer and Lilith's fall from grace, protection has always been a necessary resource. Y/ns has been there since the beginning pledging allegiance to both the king, queen, and the then young princess serving them for centuries. Y/n and the rest of the knightage fought to make sure to keep hell orderly, or as orderly as hell can get. 
Y/n was much more serious compared to their fellow knights being a Grand Cross comes with its different sets of responsibilities that in their mind “allow for no error.” due to their seemingly frigid exterior outsiders would think Y/n was only following the chivalry code nothing more. But, on the contrary, Y/n did truly care for Morningstars.
This is why Y/n's heart dropped hearing about the extermination coming earlier than expected, it was always busier during this time of year. The number of casualties just from the royal guard was always a hard gap to fill after the massacre was over. But at least, the Morning Stars were spared. This time, however? Y/n wasn't sure everyone was going to come back alive, a direct attack from heaven? Some of their most skilled knights have fallen to the hands of exorcists. How in hell would Charlie ever come out alive? 
But, Y/n takes orders, and Lucifer stops her from interfering. 
“I don't understand why you won't let me do this,” Y/n exclaimed curtly, brows pulled tightly together. The confusion was evident in their tone, their body rigid like a sword. A still silence blankets the room after no response. Y/n, Moving forward through Lucifer's study smoothly dodging various piles of ducks. Continued.
“I am loyal to this family, eternally. And the one chance I am needed…you, tell me to stay?.. Why? She is your daughter. Do you want her blood to spill across the pavement? Because that is what will happen if you let this continue.” Anger started to bubble to the surface as they pointed an accusatory finger at Lucifer.
The silenced followed them 
“You must let me go I have-” Y/n pleading began
“Stop, I order you to stop,” Lucifer said weakly, looking away unsure. It was obvious he was going through his own anxiety and turmoil due to the extermination and the safety of his daughter.
“She has to do this, you.” he looked to Y/n glassy-eyed
“Cannot face heaven” he continued “I don't think anyone here really can… Charlie can hold her own. I mean if anything this could I don't know, um.. steer her away from heaven!” he said, his charismatic exterior seemingly returning to his body.
“Yes…but what do we do if she cannot handle it.” y/n said quietly, mouth pulled into a deep frown.
“Well, who better than me? King of hell! Eh! Eh!” lucifer exclaimed loudly elbowing y/n's rib cage
“This is not a time for humor,” she responded coldly. Lucifer rolled his eyes playfully.
“ Y/n I'm worried about her too, but this is something she needs to do. If I need to I will step in. You have enough to worry about with everybody else looking to you for guidance, have faith in her. So! I order you to stay here!…. Please.” Lucifer exclaimed albeit a little awkwardly since he was not used to giving many orders directly to Y/n's face
Y/n Sighed bending down to kneel “As you wish my king.” 
“Okay okay, you don't have to do all of that! I mean, come on! You're practically family.” Lucifer exclaimed in surprise. 
And so, Y/n trusting Lucifer they went back to their duties. Making preparations for extermination day preoccupied their mind most days. but silently anxiety seeped in. Truthfully, Y/n is terrified of losing Charlie and Lucifer they're the only family they've ever had. Even in life, Y/n wasn't close to anyone as much as they were with the MorningStars, which is why relief flooded Y/n's whole body hearing that both Charlie and Lucifer were safe in the end. After the hotel was rebuilt, they planned a visit to double-check. 
It was your average day at the hotel, Husk was busy cleaning the bar counter with a tattered rag as Angel Dust as well as Vaggie lounged on the couch. Angel, scrolled mindlessly through their phone while Vaggie worked on sharpening her spear. Charlie, of course, was planning new lesson plans with her father. Everything was calm. That was until three loud pounding knocks rumbled through the room.
Vaggie immediately jumped up in defense while everyone slowly turned towards the door, a menacing shadow shown through the glass. The only person who seemed excited was Charlie.
“Wait! Wait! This could be a new guest!” Charlie said excitedly jumping at the opportunity to greet the mysterious person at the door
“Okay everyone, let's remember to smile and introduce ourselves!” she smiled to everyone in the lobby, Alastor now entering the picture to observe.
Charlie swung the door wide open “Welcome to the hazbin hotel!- Y/n!!” 
Charlie embraced Y/n in a bone-crushing hug squealing and spinning both her and the reader around “I'm so excited to see you! It's been so long! Oh! Come and meet everyone!”
But just as Charlie was leading you over to the rest you spot a certain um. Eccentric! red demon
“Oh! What in the unholy hell is that..” y/n exclaimed obviously unsettled by the red demon 
Grimacing at the sight and leaning down Charlie 
“Charlie, I trust your judgment but what… what the HELL is that.” but just as y/n leaned up there he was.
“Alastor, Pleasure to be meeting you dear. Quite a pleasure indeed!” Alastor said enthusiastically jostling you around like a rag doll with his over-excited handshake.
“And who are you? The servant to the morning stars him?” he continued. Lucifer and y/n both make eye contact across the room silently agreeing about their mutual opinion of this “Radio Demon” as he likes to be called.
“More like, protector. What are you hm? The janitor? With that tattered suit, one might think you would be a stray animal who wandered in.” Y/n shot back with a frown and an unimpressed brow
“Alright! y/n! Let um let's meet everybody else! please..” Charlie said steering you away from Alastor you both looked as if you were about to be at each other throats if she didn't intervene 
“Everyone! This is y/n! They are a part of the…” she whispered over to Y/n “Is it the knightage..?”
“Yes, it's the knightage you're right.” y/n had responded quietly they were used to Charlie's struggle with certain words many nights they had to help Charlie with their spelling when she was younger.
“The Knightage! They work for me and Dad.” Everyone had gone silent at this news no one ever thought that they would be meeting the top of the food chain. Royal knights have been seen around hell usually around the time of the extermination, and almost everybody knew not to mess with them. Especially Y/n, just looking at them everyone would think they could snap someone in half without a second thought. Almost everybody there straightened their posture as Y/N's cold gaze flicked over everybody even Alastor tensed up slightly. 
“It's nice to meet everybody, Charlie is very enthusiastic about this hotel of hers, I'm glad it's made its reach to people,” Y/n responded professionally, Charlie looked over the cast of people in the room noting the uncomfortableness of everybody, She knew y/n was…Cold-looking, but she's never seen anyone react to just their presence in such a way. 
The silence lasted for what seemed like an eternity no one daring to speak up 
“So, are both your swords accurate about hitting certain deep spots, or just the one?” Angel spoke up flirtatiously everyone's heads snapping in the direction of the outburst
“What?! Just asking, geese.” replied angel
“My sword is made of iron it's manufactured to hit “deep spots” A knight does not possess two iron swords that would be .. redundant,” Y/n said calmly. Angel had side-eyed Husk when this was said triggering Husk to roll his eyes to mimic annoyance. 
“Speaking of weapons, Vaggie your spear needs to be sharpened. I suggest you sharpen it daily it'll really glide through people like butter if you do.” Y/n continued, they had met Vaggie prior to the hotel but only briefly as Charlie didn't come to the castle much anymore after Lilith left. 
“Oh! Um, thanks!” Vaggie replayed hurriedly intimidated by the tall stance Y/n possessed the heavy armor from neck to toe didn't help them look less menacing either
“By the way, thank you for protecting Charlie and everyone at the hotel.” y/n said slowly moving down to kneel “ I wasn't there myself due to my orders but I am glad to know Charlie is in good hands it brings peace of mind.” Y/n continues now fully kneeling 
Vaggie visibly flustered responded quickly “Oh! It was oh it was nothing really.” 
“Y/n?” Charlie interjected 
Y/n slowly rising to their feet, “Yes, Charlie?”
“How about you stay for dinner really.. Catch up!” Charlie said excitedly. Y/n glanced over to Lucifer who had two thumbs up. 
“Ah hell, why not.”

♡ Abigail With An Older Courtesan Reader ♡
(This is just a shorter one.)
Tumblr media
♡ Abigail likely met you around the first time she had arrived in the capital and you immediately caught her eye. As a courtesan you were the very definition of hyper femininity in her eyes and it didn't help that she had just read a novel where the knight wins a war and finally gets enough of a title in order to give his courtesan childhood lover a life as his countess. That all just sounded like a dream to her and so she told you at exactly the age of 8 that she was going to marry you when she gained her own personal knightage. ♡
♡ You'd laughed her off and walked away but she never seemed to get the idea out of her head and as the years progressed she always made sure you were far out of the way of every battle for the throne, making sure you would survive until the day she could make good on her promise. It did irk her she had to wait an additional two year before she was able to make you her bride but all that really matter was at the end of the day you would be her duchess and any client of yours would be dead. ♡
Your room was a complete mess, things scattered everywhere as the source of the chaos stood in the center of the room looking directly at you while a noble you recognized as a common client sat battered against the wall trembling and waiting for her to walk away so they could scamper off to the nearest doctor unless they succumbed to their wounds first which seemed highly likely.
"Sweetheart, I was deeply hurt you didn't attend the ceremony, my plans to propose were thrown completely off course." Ceremony? Ceremony? Oh fuck, it hit you what ceremony she had been talking about. The Parley's had arrived in the capital with their child over ten years ago and it was then that she had declared to everyone that once she got older and gained her own knightage, she would marry you and you'd never have to work again. You simply smiled and walked away knowing that children say crazy things all the time and it's best to just breeze past it.
Judging by the looks of the noble in your room it seemed she was serious.
"Well there's no time like the present, we're getting married."

Thoughts - House Belois was justified in treason
As much as I think they're annoying and infuriating, I have to admit, in another story, they would have been justified in their attempt at rebellion.
After all, consider this: Trash dad was Akan I's closest associate. Even their wives were close. House Belois was always known to be loyal to the Crown. Unfortunately, Akan I was overthrown by his brother, but he at least was still a member of the imperial family. After this event, House Belois withdrew from most political activities and stayed mostly in the South. Although not as active, he got along well with the Queen's faction enough to send them/Nigelle an invite to Lari's 12th birthday party (the one Rupert ordered Tory to steal).
It's implied that the promise made between Trash dad and the Crazy emperor was something like this: In exchange for keeping the secret of the Emperor's infertility and how Eva is a wiletan spy and wants to escape, the Count will live like a mouse in the South, along with smuggling Lari away, but also on the condition that Eva's child will not inherit the throne.
Ch 72:
Tumblr media
Notice in both timelines, Trash dad was quiet and didn't earnestly make plans for treason until he learned that Rupert would be crown prince/Emperor. In TL1, it wasn't until Rupert became Emperor and soon took Tori as his Empress that Trash dad started acting up: he openly complained about how a commoner was the mother of the nation, but he also knew that the new emperor was also essentially a Wiletan commoner with no speck of Vellnelni blood. He didn't take action because although Rupert was named Crown Prince, the emperor, Arnulf, and Ventibolt was still alive so it wasn't a guarantee that he would become Emperor next.
In TL2, he had a jump-start of 3ish years to plan the treason and was on the lookout for the truth that Lari was correct in that Rupert was actually a male would become CP, and we see the evidence through Lehan: his unusually quick improvements, knightage, promotions, transferred to another location, now part of the army instead of the military (or something like that).
As someone as loyal to the crown and as traditional as House Belois, it is utter madness to allow non-royals to masquerade as the real ones and fool the entire nation. There was no way they could accept that. So of course he had to take action to put Lari back rightfully on the throne. Ventibolt is a coward, Arnulf is weak, but through Lari, House Belois can "set the Vellnelni empire to the right path" again.
(It's also explained in the novel that in hindsight, she's aware that her father loved/idolized/respected Akan I and House Belois so much, and that he only "loved" her as long as she was useful to him with his goals. The moment she cut ties with House Belois, he was ready to abandon her. Gross. This was hinted as early as Ch 54 with the first visit to Aunt Amelia's house where she told Lari that Trash dad didn't love her, he only loved Belois)
It just so happens that in THIS story, it's a story of choices, changes, healing, acceptance, freedom, autonomy etc, so the reader sympathizes with Rupe/Lali so we WANT them to succeed and be happy.
Just thoughts.

Pairing: Male Monarch X afab!Reader
Sypnosis: The monarch didn't know how grave the consequences of his decisions would lead to. He only realized that after dying at the hands of the emperor and returning in time...
Word Count: 3,053
Tumblr media
“They say distance makes the heart grow fonder, but my heart just became numb.”
The young princess of Avillon exhaled, returning her melancholic gaze toward the scenery outside her window. The weather was beautiful — white clouds floating across the light blue skies, the warm rays of the sun pouring over the small kingdom and its people — yet, no matter how lively and cheerful the day appears to be, Princess (Y/n) retained her somber expression even today.
It's already been a month since her older brother, the reigning monarch of Avillon, took the majority of the kingdom's exceptional knights to deal with the outside dispute that may harm the continent and its people. She knew that it is inevitable for him to leave as he is the sole lord of the knightage and Avillon's best military strategist. Yet... no matter how much she convinces herself that everything would be fine, she can't stop her heart from churning in pain upon remembering him.
"Princess, aren't you gonna eat? It's way past lunchtime and you haven't eaten yet. I'm worried that this might deteriorate your health," Lyn expressed, frowning as she carefully sauntered over the (h/c)-haired royalty sitting by the window sill. "Rouin will scold you if you keep doing this."
"Then let him be," the royalty huffed, aggravated by the nagging of her subjects. "If I feel famished, I'll eat. If he doesn't want that, then he eats for me."
"You know that I can't let you do such things, now, Your Highness?"
(Y/n) flinched at the new voice. She could hear shuffling and a set of heavy footsteps coming in close to her. However, she refused to face the person. An evident scowl was plastered on her face, leaning forward towards the transparent glass with her palm covering half of her cheeks. Rouin's image was reflected in the window, yet the stubborn princess still refused even look at him through the reflection.
Seeing the way she's behaving, the royal adviser let out a sigh of exasperation. He glanced at Lyn and gestured to her that he will handle the princess from now on. The pink-haired elf understood and briefly bowed in the princess's direction before she quietly left the room. Now that the only individuals in the princess' quarters were her and him, the atmosphere turned tense.
"What do you need, Rouin? I believe my brother instructed you to handle all the national affairs in his stead; there's no need for me to interfere, right?" She spat, not even caring to hide the annoyance and anger in her tone.
"Your Highness, you know that you can't continue acting like that," Rouin countered, his tone gentle and calm in contrast to hers. "What would Lord think if he sees you in this state after he returned from his endeavor? Do you think that he would be happy if his younger sister began neglecting her health?"
"TSK...! WHAT DO YOU KNOW?!" she snapped, standing abruptly from her seat and glaring hard at the older male.
This sudden outburst from her caught Rouin off-guard. He stared at his mistress with nervous sweat trickling down his face. Her teeth gritted together, both fists clenched tightly by her side, a deep crease in between her furrowed eyebrows, trembling body, and (e/c) orbs containing deep frustrations. This was the first time that he had seen a princess like this.
"You don't know much about what I feel so don't you even dare assume! Worry? Fear? I get that my brother's careful that he won't be taken advantage of! I know that he has Fram, Johan, and the others protecting him! I know all of that so I don't have to worry, right?!" The young royalty continued, rage filling her up that she can't compose herself anymore. "I know all of that so don't you dare tell me how and what to feel! And don't you dare even guilt-trip me by mentioning my brother."
"I... I sincerely apologize, Your Highness. I swear that it won't happen again..." it took Rouin a moment before he was able to compose himself from her words. He had his head hung low, out of shame and guilt.
"Good. Now get out," venom dripped from the cold order while her gaze didn't fail to pierce through him.
"Understood."
At that command, the royal adviser took his leave. Once more, the princess of Avillon was in the middle of her spacious yet silent bedroom. The heavy atmosphere from earlier hadn't dissipated yet, and her unexpected outrage instantly took a toll on her. (Y/n) collapsed onto the tiled floor, her heartbeat racing and face covered with sweat. She stared at her trembling hands, spotting red nail marks on her palm. Soon, her quivering lips elicit a small hiccup, then a choked sob, before fully breaking down crying.
"I'm lonely... I'm sad... I missed you, big brother... I can't take this loneliness anymore. Please... hurry home."
Tumblr media
"S-sir Rouin... Is Her Highness alright? I heard her shouting earlier," a maid approached the gray-haired adviser, concern etched on her face for whatever had transpired in the princess' chambers.
Rouin pursed his lips, his half-lidded eyes failed to meet with the maid's worried gaze. "It's nothing... I just made a blunder and angered the princess."
"O-oh... Is she alright? How about you, Sir?"
"I'm alright. And as for the princess..." his gray-blue orbs stared remorsefully at the closed double doors. "It's probably better if we don't disturb Her Highness later on. Only serve her when she calls on you. Understood?"
"H-huh?" The maid blinked, baffled by his words. Nevertheless, despite not knowing the reason behind his words, she still bowed her head in compliance. "Understood."

"How is my sister, Mu?"
"I apologize, Master. It seems that the princess' health isn't been the best recently," the spirit shook her head, dejected. "She's been in low spirits ever since you left to handle the Empire's assault on the western and eastern continent and hasn't been herself since. I'm afraid that she's completely missing your presence."
"I see..." a certain raven-haired lord sighed, waving his hand dismissively. "I appreciate your report, Mu. Please continue to observe Princess (Y/n) and how she's doing. If possible, have Lyn or Rouin handle her. I don't want her to stay depressed because of me."
"Yes, Master."
"Your Highness, was that Mu you were talking with earlier?" Johan curiously asked, entering the room the young ruler was currently in. "Ah! There's also the report regarding the other nation's reply to the proposed alliance."
"Thanks, Johan," the ravenette simpered as he collected the papers. "And yes, that was Mu. I was just asking about my sister."
"You mean Princess (Y/n)?" The young ruler nodded.
"It seemed that I didn't take into account my younger sister's condition before I left to battle the Empire," onyx hues contained regret and sadness, a hint of guilt lingering in the young monarch's voice. Picking up the papers, he let his hands caress the rough texture. "I've always fought for my ideals and wanted the world to be a better place for everyone to live in. And when I learned about the Empire's plan on conquering each country, I was afraid for my sister's well-being."
"I understood very well of Your Highness' feelings. After all, she's your only family left, right?"
"That's right. And because of the thought of her being taken away if our country were to be seized by the Empire, it seems that I was blinded by simply fighting back to ensure that it wouldn't happen. Although everything seems to fall smoothly into the plan, I did forget one important variable."
"It concerns the princess, right, Lord?"
"Yes," the man let out a dejected sigh. "How could I, her older brother and her remaining family, fail to act as one for her? I was too focused on my duty as Avillon's ruler that I disregarded my sister's feelings."
"I'm sure that you didn't mean to hurt Her Highness' feelings, Milord. Though considering your relationship with her, your actions did lack sincerity," Johan expressed, watching over his lord with worry etched on his face. "It's almost been a month since we've traveled far from Avillon. All she knows is that you left with the knights. She was left alone in the citadel without knowing why her brother left and if he was going to return safely. If I were Princess (Y/n), I would grow anxious as each day passed. Especially when I'm not with the only person I hold dearest."
"I know..."
The young lord of Avillon felt his heart racing inside his chest. He wasn't ignorant of the feeling, yet, he wasn't pleased by experiencing it either. This feeling wasn't brought about by fighting or the fear of failure. He was quite confident with his skills as a strategist and the skills of his knights. No; this anxiety and heartache were because of a certain person — his little sister.
The ravenette sat idly by the desk, paperwork scattered on the wood that is all related to their all-out counterattack against the Empire. The room was silent, Johan seemingly left after their earlier conversation, leaving the young man to deal with his thoughts alone. He knew that everything he did was for the sake of the world, and most importantly, for his sister. However, it appeared that he didn't consider his sister and focused only on the battle ahead. He had failed to act like her older brother.
"Hah... I can't believe that I'm still foolish. I just hope that you can endure it for longer, (Y/n). I promise that your older brother will be by your side once everything is over."

After the knights defeated the bandits lingering in the Nibelon woodlands, the monarch of Avillon issued a command to return to their borders. The knights, with the addition of the newly recruited Schneider, followed their leader as they returned home at night from their tiring journey. 
"Announcing the safe return of our Lord, His Highness, and the knights!"
The vociferous voice echoed throughout the citadel, announcing the success and return of their leader. Everyone present in the grand hallway instantly shifted their attention toward the double doors as they opened. And as on instinct, every subject bowed down in respect as a young man with hair as black as coal and eyes an onyx hue strode inside with his men trailing behind.
Upon arriving at the doors to his throne room, the young lord saw a familiar man. With his record book still in his hold, Rouin dipped his head in reverence to his master, glad to see him safe and sound.  The young monarch sported a small smile, a spirited gleam appearing in his eyes upon seeing the adviser.
"Welcome home, Your Highness. The mission was a success, I see."
"Thank you, Rouin," he nodded. "How is my sister?"
"Her Highness, Princess (Y/n), is well. She is currently in her chambers," the older of the two reported.
"I see," the monarch's face contained something unexplainable as he glanced down at his folded arms. "Well, I think I need a little break from our mission. Rouin, do you mind if you handle the rest?"
"Of course not, Your Highness. Please rest well," the man regarded, bowing down once more as the ravenette royalty left.
Tumblr media
"I won't repeat the same mistake. (Y/n), I'm sorry for my actions in my past life... On top of that, I didn't fulfill my promise of returning to you. But this time will be different. I swear that it will never happen again."
The door to the princess' quarters creaked open as a certain person entered her abode. The room was dimly lit; only the moonlight seeping through the large windows and the flickering of the candelabra by the bedside table were the lights available. The young lord of Avillon quietly walked over to his sister by the windowsill. Her upper body was slouched on the sill as she wrapped her arms around her head. In this position, the princess appeared so serene and heavenly while sleeping. Such a rare picture to behold.
A bittersweet smile soon appeared on his lips, taking a seat next to his little sister to observe her closely. Removing his cloak, the ravenette carefully put the material over the petite frame of his sister. His heart began to speed up, pain and longing eventually running in his system. The male pursed his lips, thin eyebrows scrunched together at the thought of his past life. He, who was confident enough to fight against the empire, met his pitiful end at the hands of Emperor Kartis. Not only that he failed as a leader, but he also failed as an older brother.
"I'm sorry for putting you through this, (Y/n)," he murmured, gently caressing his sister's soft (h/c) locks. Sadness glazed over his moist orbs, the tears threatening to burst through any minute. "I'm sorry... for failing you and everyone else..."
Those were the words that he wanted to impart to every one of his allies. From his original knights — Fram, Johan, Charlotte, and Mikhail — to his recruits — Schneider, Zaira, Helga, Olivia, and Astrid — and lastly, to his allies from every nation. Those are the words that contained the burden of being a Returner; the burden of knowing what is to come. Yet, no matter what might happen in the future, he knows now that he shouldn't disregard his little sister, no matter what.
"Mhm... Hm...? Big... brother?" Slowly waking up from her slumber, Princess (Y/n) opened her lids and revealed (e/c) orbs staring back at his onyx ones. The girl yawned, lifting her head so that she could fully face the male. "You're...back...?"
"Yes. I'm back," he answered, smiling ever so softly at her. The hand on her hair remained, and she took this opportunity to slide it down to her cheeks. "Were you lonely without me, sis?"
"Mhm~ I was," she meekly nodded, leaning against his palm while both of her hands held his. Her half-lidded eyes contained sweet longing and happiness. "Welcome home, big brother~"
Her innocent smile and her bright and dazzling appearance were like the sun on his darkest days. Never once did she fail to become his emotional support — always staying by his side no matter what may happen. She remained the same even in this timeline. And he had hoped, that she will always be the same. Avillon's reigning monarch leaned forward, his eyes closed as he planted a chaste and sweet kiss on the princess' forehead. The very sign of protection and adoration.
"I have returned to you, my precious little princess."

Hinata stares at the engagement ceremony in front of him. Seriously? In the commoner wing? Was it because the girl was a commoner? Well, that was the rumor. Get involved with prince Kiyoshi and you’ll find the rich man of your dreams. Hinata wonders how true that was held to be. For the boys, it was to join the royal knightage and pray the emperor or empress take notice of them. Hinata stares at the girl, and then at the male.
“Engagement of Takayama and Komaeda.” Hinata reads.
“A commoner that reads? How impressive,” Another voice speaks up behind him.
“Your highness,” Hinata bows quickly. “What brings you here?”
“Prayers.” You stare at him. “And you?”
“I was going to put an offering in, but,” He stares at the wing. “There is a wedding.”
“Would you like to enter the nobles’ area? I’m headed there right now.”
“I couldn’t dare to.” Hinata shakes his head.
You hum. “Did you already cleanse your hands?”
“Yes,” He nods.
“Then I shall bring you into the ward of nobles.” You pull him along.
Hinata follows you as he passes through the torii, eyes widening at how much nicer it seemed.
“Who do the nobles pray to?”
“The imperial family offers to Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi,” You nod. “The nobles pray to any of the other gods. May the sun herself light your way.”
“May the moon himself follow you all his days.”

The Villainess of the North: Chapter 1
I remember seeing a teenage girl and the strap breaking off the steel beam. I remember running full out pushing her out of the way. The sirens, the shouts, and the shocked face Iren made when I kissed him. “I’ll see you in the next life,” I told him before I died.
Surprisingly I was in Iren’s book “Love Me Eternal.” Looking into the full length mirror a four almost five-year-old girl with moonlight color hair and gold eyes looked back at me. Daughter of Grand Duke Garnet Von Rosa, Lady Iris Von Rosa, the spitting image of her father. Unluckily, we were in the imperial capital. Not surprising since the Grand Duchess didn’t like the fiefdom out North near the border of the lycanthropes lands.
My mother was the first princess of the kingdom of Avaria just as my fathers mother was. The Grand Duchy of Rosa had imperial blood and was the sword and shield of the kingdom; the knights of Rosa were known as the Wolves of Rosa. My father was the commander of this knightage.
I sat before the fireplace as I looked at my status screen.This made me roll my eyes. I was a powerhouse but with this small body the actual skills I had wouldn’t help me unless I wanted to destroy the world.
I had to get to the ruins of Sylvestres but to do that I needed to go to the Grand Duchy. The Grand Duchess however, did everything to not go back there. I was born in the Grand Duchy but we came to the imperial capital just before the season started and the grand duchess never wanted to go back to the north.
Well I knew what I needed to do the problem was making it happen. Luckily the Grand Duchess hasn’t fired my Nanny who was Count Dale's daughter, a vassal of the North. As well as the two maids, Ann who was also from the North and Tara who was hiding the fact she was a lycanthrope.
They knocked on my bedroom door and waited for me to give them permission to come in. The rest of the servants didn’t do that at all. I sent Nanny, Lettie, to get the ingredients I wrote out made into a tea for me. She was back after four hours with the tea I requested. The teas affects started to work and four days after drinking it I snuck in to the grand duchess office one night and started sorting out her papers. I did this every night for the next seven nights.
Finally finishing my goal and putting the right papers in dads office. While also taking her seal. She technically wasn’t supposed to have it since dad hadn’t given her the North Star which was a deep blue diamond set in the center of a star. Now I just had to make sure we left for the North this time. The Grand Duchess made one trip there had gotten pregnant with me and was force to stay in the North for two years. Once back in the capital she had excuse after excuse to stay in the capital.
“Nanny, when are we going home?” I asked her as I drank my tea in the sun room of the main building. Wearing a light blue north silk dress my dad gifted to me. Luckily the grand duchess was out along with the head maid who had been the Grand Duchess nanny. Her daughter was the Grand Duchess ladies maid and her husband our head butler. They were also out of the house or I would never have been let into the mansion.
“I’m not sure Young Wolf the last couple of times it was just the North Wolf.”
“I want to go home too.” I said giving my best pout. “I don’t like it here. I hardly get to see daddy and the capital servants are all mean, especially the head maid, butler and the grand duchess ladies maid.”
“Mean, how are they mean daughter.” A smooth neutral voice said followed by a 30 year old man with the same moonlight hair and gold eyes.
“Daddy.” I said jumping out of my chair and running to him. He picked me up in his arms but his emotionless face remained the same. He sat down at the table with me on his lap. “When are we going home?” I asked him. He thought for a moment then said.
“Next week.” I brighted up.
“Yay. No take backs. North’s honor.” I said, holding my hand up.
“North’s honor.” He said copying me and then kissed my forehead.” Nanny smiled along with Ann. Dads attdent was giving a shocked look at this. “Now what were you saying about mean servants.” I went into a full explanation and even used my skill memory to show him a few things. I also told a white lie about finding the seal on the floor in the hallway. After all, she wasn’t supposed to have it. When I said my room was in the annex that was when the room got cold.

The nannies are all up in arms about Sophie’s age again. Does that mean they want to hear little baby feet again? Aren’t we pushing it? But that is a seperate issue. Here is the actual research that went into finding Sophie’s actual age. The Wikipedia page which had undergone several revisions had originally stated 1977. The footnote on Wikipedia was the same as the one for this page(thepeerage.)(com/p57294(.)htm#c572931.1) so the fact they had conflicting dates was unusual and required looking at the source material which is stated as being: Mosley, Charles, editor. Burke’s Peerage, Baronetage & Knightage, 107th edition, 3 volumes. Wilmington, Delaware, U.S.A.: Burke’s Peerage (Genealogical Books) Ltd, 2003. That book, having been printed prior to Sophie Hunter’s first stated role according to IMDB, can stand as an unimpugnable source. It is purchasable or available to view at local libraries. One of the skeptics went and copied the page mentioned.
When the nannies were not satisfied with even that, a skeptic reached out to the publisher of that book and asked who/what provided the source material for the book. The reply was that the family itself provided the information. Not only that but the skeptics were also asked by the nannies to redact the CURRENT address of Sophie’s mother which was listed under her name in the page. What Happened? I believe that someone changed the Wikipedia page intentionally. I think the homemade peerage page was then changed to reflect the Wiki, without checking the source material. It is worth noting that they have since changed it back. It is also listed in ancestry sites as 1977. I can understand why an actress would lie about her age or at least not correct it. But there is no doubt. She was born in 1977, the year of her parent’s marriage.(Their wedding is listed as occurring in January 1977.) This information is very easily available. It should be especially easy for the nanny who keeps saying she is somehow related to Sophie. But in my opinion, this was never about if Sophie did this movie or any other. This is about her reputation. Once someone is caught in a lie you never trust them 💯 again. If they lied about this, what else did they lie about? 
>>>>>
I remember all this nonny. I agree with you 💯 💯 💯 💯 x infinity! 
I also looked for a bit and found the screenshot of the page from that Peerage book.

Knight Reader x Lucifer Morningstar x Charlie Morningstar
platonic!
This is a little teaser for what I'm cooking up right now! ⋆⭒˚.⋆
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
. ݁₊ ⋆.˚⊹ ٠ ࣪⭑. ݁˖. ݁₊⋆.˚. ݁₊ ⋆.˚⊹ ٠ ࣪⭑. ݁˖. ݁₊⋆.˚. ݁₊ ⋆.˚⊹ ٠ ࣪⭑. ݁˖. ݁₊⋆.˚. ݁₊ ⋆.˚⊹ ٠ ࣪⭑. ݁˖. ݁₊⋆.˚. ݁ . ݁₊
Ever Since Lucifer and Lilith's fall from grace, protection has always been a necessary resource. Y/ns has been there since the beginning pledging allegiance to both the king, queen, and the then young princess serving them for centuries. Y/n and the rest of the knightage fought to make sure to keep hell orderly, or as orderly as hell can get. 
Y/n was much more serious compared to their fellow knights being a Grand Cross comes with its different sets of responsibilities that in their mind “allow for no error.” due to their seemingly frigid exterior outsiders would think Y/n was only following the chivalry code nothing more. But, on the contrary, Y/n did truly care for Morningstars.
This is why Y/n's heart dropped hearing about the extermination coming earlier than expected, it was always busier during this time of year. The number of casualties just from the royal guard was always a hard gap to fill after the massacre was over. But at least, the Morning Stars were spared. This time, however? Y/n wasn't sure everyone was going to come back alive, a direct attack from heaven? Some of their most skilled knights have fallen to the hands of exorcists. How in hell would Charlie ever come out alive? 
But, Y/n takes orders, and Lucifer stops her from interfering. 
. ݁₊ ⋆.˚⊹ ٠ ࣪⭑. ݁˖. ݁₊⋆.˚. ݁₊ ⋆.˚⊹ ٠ ࣪⭑. ݁˖. ݁₊⋆.˚. ݁₊ ⋆.˚⊹ ٠ ࣪⭑. ݁˖. ݁₊⋆.˚. ݁₊ ⋆.˚⊹ ٠ ࣪⭑. ݁˖. ݁₊⋆.˚. ݁₊ ⋆
“I don't understand why you won't let me do this,” Y/n exclaimed curtly, brows pulled tightly together. The confusion was evident in their tone, their body rigid like a sword. A still silence blankets the room after no response. Y/n, Moving forward through Lucifer's study smoothly dodging various piles of ducks. Continued.
“I am loyal to this family, eternally. And the one chance I am needed…you, tell me to stay?.. Why? She is your daughter. Do you want her blood to spill across the pavement? Because that is what will happen if you let this continue.” Anger started to bubble to the surface as they pointed an accusatory finger at Lucifer.
The silenced followed them 
“You must let me go I have-” Y/n pleading began
“Stop, I order you to stop,” Lucifer said weakly, looking away unsure. It was obvious he was going through his own anxiety and turmoil due to the extermination and the safety of his daughter.
“She has to do this, you.” he looked to Y/n glassy-eyed
“Cannot face heaven” he continued “I don't think anyone here really can… Charlie can hold her own. I mean if anything this could I don't know, um.. steer her away from heaven!” he said, his charismatic exterior seemingly returning to his body.
“Yes…but what do we do if she cannot handle it.” y/n said quietly, mouth pulled into a deep frown.
“Well, who better than me? King of hell! Eh! Eh!” lucifer exclaimed loudly elbowing y/n's rib cage
“This is not a time for humor,” she responded coldly. Lucifer rolled his eyes playfully.
“ Y/n I'm worried about her too, but this is something she needs to do. If I need to I will step in. You have enough to worry about with everybody else looking to you for guidance, have faith in her. So! I order you to stay here!…. Please.” Lucifer exclaimed albeit a little awkwardly since he was not used to giving many orders directly to Y/n's face
Y/n Sighed bending down to kneel “As you wish my king.” 
“Okay okay, you don't have to do all of that! I mean, come on! You're practically family.” Lucifer exclaimed in surprise. 
And so, Y/n trusting Lucifer they went back to their duties. Making preparations for extermination day preoccupied their mind most days. but silently anxiety seeped in. Truthfully, Y/n is terrified of losing Charlie and Lucifer they're the only family they've ever had. Even in life, Y/n wasn't close to anyone as much as they were with the MorningStars, which is why relief flooded Y/n's whole body hearing that both Charlie and Lucifer were safe in the end.

(Veronia is excluded because she literally does nothing ever.)
♡ What They Would Do On A Week Off ♡
Tumblr media
♡ Theanna can take a week off whenever she wants, she has a wide variety of people working beneath her who know exactly how she would respond to most scenarios so she can leave them to handle things for a week or two, don't get me wrong she's still a valuable leader but her major job is handling the thing under the gardens. ♡
♡ On a day off with Theanna it usually begins with her satiating her desire for you then a maid will come in and bring you breakfast while she helps you get dressed for the day because she wouldn't let a maid dress you, plus you get so embarrassed that someone so high ranking is dressing you and that the maids saw you in her bed. Usually she'll keep you in her chambers all day although she can be convinced to take you to a ball that night if she has lots of free time. She also enjoys having tea with you in the gardens on occasion. ♡
♡ If you're really really lucky then you could possibly convince her to leave castle walls with you but you'll have so many guards breathing down both of your necks, for the shadows so they don't disrupt your date but still. That's rare though, what's more common is her calling for merchants and generously rewarding anyone who can bring an item that catches your eye. ♡
Tumblr media
♡ Elisha takes days off when she wants, her only real duty is dealing with dragons and big monsters, the other things are just her own personal choice because she likes doing them, mostly because it's nice to feel strong and capable. Once she has a darling those side tasks that everyone takes for granted will likely stop happening, even more so once she's decided to stop acting all tsundere on you. ♡
♡ A day off with Elisha depends on where you are, you're travelling with her so if she's free in the middle of the forest then it might consist of her locating a nearby town and then you two might wander and look at the local wares. This is much more common and she prefers this although the lodgings aren't ideal. She enjoys that most people don't recognize her as the adventurer so she'll kick back although she makes you keep your hood on even though no one knows who you are. If she's still tsundere mode then she'll say it'll disturb her peace if people approach the two of you but she's not like jealous. Otherwise she'll probably say some nonsense about them trying to taint your mind. ♡
♡ If you two are at a nobles place then she'll try to keep you within your room the entire time because the nobles might try to take you, certain idiotic nobles think that the dragon slayer wouldn't be super possessive over their travelling companion despite most people in the kingdom being possessive freaks. ♡
Tumblr media
♡ She rarely gets break though that is sort of a personal choice since Theanna doesn't always have tasks and Abigail mostly chose to run her own personal knightage and if she wasn't running it then she'd only have to check in with Theanna every other day. She loves her knightage but a break is a very good thing for her so make sure she enjoys it. ♡
♡ A day off with Abigail will usually consist of you watching her spar because she still wants to prove herself as a worthy knight for a worthy lady like yourself. She'll take a break and have tea with you which is typical but this time she's not doing paperwork as she listens to you talk. The evenings are also mostly the same, she'll take you to a ball because she does enjoy the two of you being the best couple in high society. The night is different though because she's less sore than she would typically be. ♡
♡ If it was a full week though then she'd ferry you off to meet with her family. Her family manor isn't super far from the capital but she still uses teleportation so she can enjoy as much time with you there and you'll either get to meet her whole family or if you've meet them before then they'll likely steal you away from Abigail the whole week which is very upsetting to her but she's glad you get along though she wished you'd get along less. ♡
Tumblr media
♡ Pauline is very studious for maybe like five hours out of the day when she's dead to the world and if you interrupt then she'll try to make you socially dead, unless you're her darling, then she'll force you to study as punishment so you know just how hard she works and don't interrupt again. She takes days off mostly when her family forces her to but she can have a break whenever. ♡
♡ On a day off you two are likely visiting her family so she can prove that your relationship is real so her parents might pass her the title but if you aren't visiting then Pauline will be forcing you on a date "just in case her family is watching" but it's actually because she just wants to go on a date with you. Don't call her bluff or your day will suck though. ♡
♡ On a full week off you'll probably go visit somewhere she finds interesting. While it mostly seems like her yelling at you for not knowing the significance of this place and complaining that she took an idiot who can't appreciate it with her, she's very happy to share something she finds fascinating. She might even go somewhere you find fascinating though she'll either scoff at everything you tell her because she knows more or she'll act like it's super boring even if she's delighted that you two are acting like a real couple. ♡
Tumblr media
♡ Ainsley gets days off based on the whims of Theanna. Usually bringing Ainsley in is overkill but some of the court nobles still try to force her to bow to their whims which usually ends in murder. Basically her schedule relies on nobles leaving her the fuck alone, not that she won't willingly take on tasks but most of the time it's against her will. ♡
♡ On a regular day off you stay within her tower for the most part though she isn't opposed to taking you outside the palace as no one would be crazy enough to stare at you when Ainsley is clearly very high ranking, even commoners know how weird the nobles get about their lovers. It might feel a bit awkward going to town with her when no one will say a word to you, they only address her even when you're the one buying the thing. ♡
♡ If it's a full week then she might want to travel outside the palace a bit with her teleportation. I think she'd likely take you to a lake house that she... acquired. She'd love to go swimming with you if you know how but it's not necessary since she could always just make you float on the water if you want. Her old village was close to a lake so she'd like to share this with you the whole week of your vacation even if it isn't the same lake. ♡

What's your headcanon on the education system of the children Cale took in (Raon, On, Hong and the Wolf Children) UwU
Notes: These headcanons became less focused on the children themselves but the education system as a whole whoops
After everything’s done and over with, there’s finally time to focus on living ‘life-after’
Yes education is important but Cale also believes it’s important to tell the children why and let them decide if they want to take classes
Of course, most would decide to take it because they want to be useful to Cale in the future (and he’s oblivious to how his speech “Live for yourself, not for others.” only seem to achieve the opposite effect)
A small community school was built in the forest of darkness to provide basic education
Yeah, you’re not going to rope Cale into a teaching job but he’ll find only the best to teach at the school and who better to ask for opinion than Duchess Violan?
Duchess Violan was more than happy to step in and help manage the school, using her many social connections to find the best tutors
Duchess Violan also personally taught social etiquette courses
Knightage training for those interested in knighthood, Lily Henituse would also occasionally drop by to help teach and became quite popular amongst the students
News of the Henituse family’s school went around and soon everyone wanted to join
With rising demand, the Henituse family decided might as well improve the education system in the entire Duchy
Thus the Henituse University was built
Accessible and fair with plenty of scholarships to help
Soon other territories would build their own universities modelled after the Henituse University, but none will ever reach the fame Henituse University does
