Sarah Paulson's Characters - Oneshots

AU Lana x Reader - Rooftop Exploration

Lana blinked over to the furthest rooftop, landing on the shingles with a soft slip. She looked back, seeing you look at your hand. She had given some of her powers to you for your protection. She had made The Outsider, Sally, promise to not meddle in your life, she knew the price of the mark and didn't want you to deal with said price.

You took a couple steps back, taking a deep breath and then sprinting. You held your fist up, whispering the incantation. Sum Fdah. As you leapt, the incantation took hold. You stumbled into Lana as your body moved forward as though you had been thrown in mere seconds. "You'll get the hang of it." Lana smiled, giving you a soft kiss. "We should be more quiet around here. I saw some weepers just a couple floors down and just under this roof." She warned. "How-?" She hadn't taught you that yet, she only gave you what you'd need. Blink, Windblast, and Doppelganger. You had seen her use each of these before, especially when in a tight situation.

Sneaking along the roof, Lana blinked over to the clocktower. You followed suit, standing beside the stealthy woman. "Do you remember the first time we met?" Lana popped the question. "I do. It was the 3rd day in the Month of Ice and I was cornered by guards. You saved my life. The second time we ran into each other, you appeared in my apartment with a gunshot wound in your side. I healed you, and that's when I knew I was going to keep seeing you. I felt that I needed you in my life." You spoke quietly, leaning against Lana. "The Knife of Dunwall, falling for a woman who just so happens to be the daughter of a Baron from Tyvia." Lana teased, smiling. "You're never going to let that go, are you? Oh, don't forget the time I had to convince the guard you were just a confused woman who was cursed by a witch. Thankfully, it worked. For someone who is quiet as a church mouse, you're awfully clumsy." You added. "Oh you're just mad that I went to Venable's party and didn't find a way behind the walls." Lana teased, laughing softly.

You stared off to the moon as fireworks went off. Lana's body heat kept you warm through the night, soon the two of you ran through the city again, choosing to sleep in an abandoned apartment.

The morning of The Month of Earth took hold as The Fugue Feast ended. Opening your eyes slowly, the soot in the apartment still hung in the air. You bought your head up, looking over at the sleeping assassin Lana. She looked peaceful, a rare moment to witness. "I love you."
