First Monthly Bonus Story — Lazarus/Lazaris, Arranged Marriage AU

Added 2025-04-10 09:17:56 +0000 UTC

I changed the order a bit this time, with Laz going first, then Os, because Os has a continuation of a previous story that the first tier doesn't have access to. So I thought it would make more sense to swap them. Os will go up next :)

“I didn’t expect…” you trail off. “This. How have you taken to this idea about marriage?”
Laz shrugs. “We both will marry for convenience eventually. What is there to think about? Am I that bad of a candidate that you don’t like the proposal?”
“I didn’t say that.”
“I don’t expect love out of this. We’re both in this for benefits, aren’t we?”
“I guess.”
They have a point, of course. Still, you hoped they would have stronger feelings about… marrying you. Not their ordinary calculating neutrality. Though, of course, it’s in their character. Exactly the type of thing that irritated you so much at first.
You wished they would treat you… differently.
Foolish.

A similar situation as with Os—the Oracle is still pretty much the same demon, but they have a clan. Their relationship and dynamic with Laz isn't that different from the canon one. Small warning—the Oracle drinks alcohol in this by default and gets a little tipsy.
