The topic of first relationships played funnily between Lucanis and my Rook. Rook was like: "Well. I wouldn't know how a first kiss tastes like since I've never been kissed before". Lucanis said something like: "In matters of the heart is better not to rush". My Rook was sure that was a patronizing comment coming from someone that probably has kissed dozens of people before.
When they took forever to get together, Rook thought: "Oh, man. He clearly doesn't like me because I'm inexperienced :(". Then that banter between Lucanis and Emmrich happened and Rook was like: "Wait, wait, WHAT? WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'M YOUR FIRST RELATIONSHIP??? YOU WEREN'T BEING PATRONIZING, YOU WERE BEING HONEST!"
rereading the wigmaker's job to take notes on lucanis and illario characterization. notes for illario include such things as:
Illario is a grumbler, mumbler, and groaner
"Devious" (he didn't wiggle his brows when he said this but imagine)
Uses words like "vengeancey"
Wore a "smug sneer" on his face when he thinks the elven slave Effe "talked" (uh oh)
Legs bounce when he's nervous
"I'm sorry—did the contract ask for 'a fate worse than death'? Usually, it's just death." (okay fine he's funny)
Literally have a fic like this planned, Illario is so worried about Spite being the issue that he is completely unprepared for Rook
I can see Lucanis wanting to bring Illario on a contract for old times sake to finally end the bad blood, but Rook trusts Illario about as far as they can throw him and thus they all end up on the World’s Worst Roadtrip where Lucanis is the glue keeping two of them from genuinely killing each other……..
