Work Text:
Weisshaupt was exhausting. Despite Quin’s massive amount of magical abilities, it still wasn’t easy going. He did get to see his boyfriend fight a god one on one while they fought an Archdemon, but in the end, his lovely boyfriend ended up with a few injuries, and they failed to kill the god, but they did end up getting out of there alive.
As it is, he’s gently cuddling with his boyfriend. Boyfriend… Quin deserves more from him, especially after everything he put Quin through.
“Lucanis wants more?” Spite asks in his head. “Spite. Wants more. Too.” Its… It’s not ideal, and he doesn’t have a ring. As much as he wants to right now, he can’t possibly ask to take his relationship further like this.
“Luca?” Quin asks as they walk through Treviso. “Where are we going?”
Lucanis smiles, leading his boyfriend hand in hand. “You’ll see, mi amor. You’ll love it, I promise.” He can tell his wonderful, lovely Quin is going to get in his head about things, so he quickly adds: “I love you, Quin. I’m never going to do something to hurt you on purpose. We’re just going to go see Teia and Viago, and then you’ll see what I’m planning.” He can see some of the anxiety vanish from those mesmerizing eyes.
“Okay. I trust you.” Quin turns a pretty pink. Luca gets a surprise kiss as they walk.
There’s a few minutes of mostly silent walking as they make their way through the city to where he agreed to meet the pair of Talons, Zia Isa at their side.
“Ah, Lucanis.” Viago greets. “You’re late.” Viago’s not upset. It’s just a tease, given that the Talon knows what he’s planning.
Lucanis smiles awkwardly, anxiety starting to take over. He can do this, right? Quin’s going to love it, right? Teia hands him the package. It’s time.
“DO IT. DO IT. DO IT!” Spite demands. Quin’s been so loving and understanding, especially with getting Spite under control and somehow getting the spirit into their relationship. Caterina might not be here right now, but they’ll rescue her as soon as they’ve come up with a plan.
Lucanis does the one thing they were taught never to do, turning to Quin and kneeling. “Quin?” His boyfriend stands there silently with shock as he processes what’s going on. “I know things haven’t exactly been easy these last few years…” He watches as that shock turns to realization. Any free Crow is now watching them. “But I hope you still want to spend the rest of your life with me just like I do you.” Lucanis opens the box, revealing Catarina’s opal ring.
He can see as each and every word clicks into place in his hot boyfriend’s mind. The murder of Crows around them waits with bated breath as Quin processes. Viago waits with a smile. Isa looks far too pleased to be healthy.
Quin takes a step forward, kneeling to give him a kiss. Lucanis squeaks in surprise before leaning into it. Quin pulls back first, “Yeah. I’d love to.” Quin smiles softly, that crimson blush spreading across his face and ears.
Lucanis knows his fiance isn’t into rings, given most things on his hands explode into dust with his magic, but the rings more a symbol than anything. They can discuss all of that later, anyway.
The murder around them cheers, Viago huffing proudly. Quin smiles, dragging him off the floor to kiss him again. “Come on.” Oh… It’s that tone. Lucanis’ face heats almost unbearably. Quin’s got plans with him and they’re going to be busy for a while.
Lucanis wouldn’t have it any other way.
