Summary:
When Lucy is under siege, Martinus stands with her, transforming into something that bristles as much as she cannot and raising all the points she keeps in her head. Strangers mutter about how often Martinus spends as a roaring lion or prickly hedgehog in public, but they don't see the way he spills over Lucy's lap as a prize bunny or prances to experimental music as a goat when alone.

A Lucy daemon AU.


Reccer's Notes: This is a collab I wrote for the fandom Pale, which is combined magical girl and urban fantasy. Canonically, Lucy ends up with a bad case of activist burnout that makes her feel that she is the only one able to fight when others cannot, which is influenced by how she is the only black girl in a rural Canadian town. My co-author and I decided to explore that for this character study.
