Lbd X Gn Reader - Blog Posts

Good day ducky! I've seen your new blog and it's looking cool!but let's go for the request shall we?

May I request a demon reader with lady bone demon?to explain:she and reader (gn pronouns for the peeps)had the same opinion to change the world!even gotten imprisoned together for their power was like no other!(or just a evil power couple if you get me)

It's a shame lbd isn't that popular between reader fics :(

-🐢 anon

Good day to you too! I gotta admit, LBD is overlooked a lot in terms of reader fics. Though, I think that's mostly because of her association with the Host Girl. This piece is strictly LBD, so the Host Girl is gonna be out of the picture (cuz it would be weird otherwise-)

Warnings: Mentions of death, poverty, and violence. Nothing explicit, though. Also, this is very long.

You are perfection to me | LBD x Demon!Reader (part 1?)

Ok so first of all, before LBD decided to literally wipe out the earth, we gotta remember that she once tried to help out humanity by working in a high ranking position for an emperor back in Ancient China

Demons weren't exactly... Well liked back in those days. So when you were caught sneaking around the palace grounds, you hauled to the emperor himself to be given your sentence

And what would you know, he chose execution! Lovely. (Note the sarcasm)

Bound in chains with guards pointing their weapons at you, you had no choice but to listen as the emperor listed off how horrifyingly painful your death was gonna be, and how you were gonna be used as an example to ward off other demonic threats that may enter the castle

You grit your teeth in frustration. This was not how it was supposed to go at all... You weren't breaking in with any malicious intent, you simply just wanted to speak with the Emperor about the condition of the kingdom! You've seen the struggles of demons and humans alike, and yet nothing was being done about it.

But who would ever listen to you, a mere demon? Your kind is not innocent by an means, so obviously, you would be just as evil as the rest of them. Why would anyone take your word and actually help you?

You lost all hope in that moment. Hope in yourself, hope for the kingdom's future, and most of all, hope in the emperor for not lifting a finger to help those in need

Until a woman in white robes comes in the room

You knew instantly that something wasn't right. That woman, she wasn't human. No, she was something worse...

A demon

But what was a demon doing in the emperors palace? In such luxurious robes, no less? Has she actually successfully fooled the entire court?

Your hands grip in anger when you realize that this demon must be living the most comfortable life, while everyone else was suffering in poverty. What a traitor.

She slides her sharp gaze over to you, still in chains and kneeling on the floor, and opens her mouth

You prepared yourself to be insulted, ridiculed, or even to get completely ignored. You went through all of that and more back at the kingdom's slums

But-

"Your Holy Highness, I must ask you to release this demon and set them free."

You blinked.

What? She wanted to set you free?

Apparently, everyone else was as shocked as you were

"Excuse me? We cannot just let this demonic spawn go! We must set an example to all those who wish to infiltrate the castle with malicious intent. Letting them walk free of their crimes would be scandalous!"

The woman bowed, looking like the epitome of grace

"As your advisor, my job is to leave you words of wisdom and guidance in times of need. This is one of those times. If we slaughter a helpless demon, then those lurking in the city will see this as an act of war, and would attempt to perform an uprising. It is best if we keep this one alive and safe, to avoid any unnecessary conflict."

The emperor thinks this over, and you lightly tremble. The woman has a point. The relationship between the demons in the kingdom with the emperor is... shaky. She's speaking from a point of logic

But that still doesn't explain why she would help you. Sure, to avoid any conflict from the demon race, but is that really all there is?

The emperor scoffs in a haughty tone

"Hmph. You are foolish, Ivory Lady. But if you insist, then we shall let the demon.... walk free."

The council doesn't seem pleased with the emperors decision. Hell, even the emperor himself looks obviously displeased on letting you walk free. But you couldn't care less.

You were going to live.

You were so close to death, but you somehow avoided it

And it's all thanks to...

Your eyes glance at the Ivory Lady, standing with full composure, not as speck of reaction on her neutral face

"But!" the emperor speaks again, as if he was determined to let your life be living hell. "This demon still broke into the palace, which is a massive offense! In order to not let this demon go unpunished, they must stay at the castle as a servant, attending to all the higher ups needs."

The Emperor sports a smug smirk on his face, but you couldn't care less. All you could care about was the Ivory Lady, bowing down to the emperor, not a hitch in her voice as she says

"As you wish, Your Holiness."

Now you walk down the impossible long hallways of the palace, the Ivory Lady at your side. You were told to accompany her as she shows you your new living quarters. The emperor said that a simple servant could do that, but the Ivory Lady insisted that she would do it

Your chains are still on your wrists, and a part of you flares in irritation. You may be alive, but at the cost of your freedom. Furthermore, you wouldn't be able to do anything about the suffering beyond the palace walls. The reason on why you came to the emperor in the first place has disappeared.

Well... maybe not everything was as bad as it seemed

"I would like to apologize on behalf of the emperor," the Ivory Lady speaks up. You jolt, not expecting her to talk to you. "He... does not think things through sometimes."

"Ah," You awkwardly say, surprised that she was brave enough to indirectly insult the emperor "Thank you. For um, saving me. And for the apology. Although there is no need to apologize, I did break into the palace grounds after all."

The Ivory Lady shakes her head

"Still, you do not deserve to be punished in such a way. You did not come here for malicious intent, correct?"

You nod, wondering how she knew that. "No, I... I came here to speak with the emperor."

The Ivory Lady shows mild interest in your words. "What did you wish to speak about?"

"About the suffering in the kingdom. I myself live in the slums and have witnessed the pain that everyone there shares. There are thieves and violence; poverty and famine; all demons and humans are desperately trying to get by. I was hoping, that by talking with the emperor he would be able to do something, but..."

You trailed off, sorrow overtaking your body. The Ivory Lady seems to understand, for she hums sadly

"I see... Truth be told, the reason why I took upon this job was to aid to rid the world of suffering. I hoped that by helping with someone with real power and guided them to be better, I could create the perfect world. A world without the endless pain and misery."

You listen to her words, entranced. She sounds genuine, and a flash of sadness comes across her face for a brief moment, before being smoothed out into a hardened and sharp look

"But I am starting to think this may be a fruitless effort."

"You are not human, are you?" You blurt out, wanting to know more about this mysterious woman and her perspective of the world

She doesn't respond, keeping silent for a few steps and stopping at a wooden door.

"This will be your living quarters. It is not comfortable by any means, but it should be enough. I shall see you tomorrow."

She turns to walk away, but you stop her.

"Wait! Let me help you. I want to remove people's suffering more than anything. If you are being honest... Then let me assist you in making a perfect world."

She halts in her steps as you speak. The Ivory Lady turns her head, enough for you to see the small smirk on her face. For a moment, your heart flutters.

"I shall see you in the morning. Rest well."

She turns away and continues walking. Her steps slowly fade away as you're left staring at where she went.

You hope that the glimmer in the Ivory Lady's eyes before she left was a yes

Honestly, I'm proud of this one! I hope I wrote LBD in character! I love characters that use fancy words, they're always fun to write. This was getting a bit long, so if anyone wants/requests a part 2 then drop one in my inbox and I'll see if I can do it!
