Corsair// C!Techno x OC

Part 7

~Lyra's POV~

"What? Why?" I say shocked, genuinely confused at what he just said.

"To be honest, the king life isn't for me, at least not alone. This seems way more fitting. " he smiles, nodding slightly.

"Are you sure? Because Jasper's not gonna let you turn back." I point out, looking at him.

"I'm sure." he smiles and makes eye contact.

"Wow. That's— wow" I scoff and smile.

"Go tell Jasper." he gestures towards his office.

"Come with me" I wave him over as we walk over to Jasper's office.

We walk down the small flight of stairs and I knock on the door.

"Who is it" he yells, obviously annoyed.

"Lyra. And Technoblade." I say, mouthing 'he's in a mood' to Techno.

Techno chuckles quietly as we hear Jasper walking over to the door.

"Come in! Come in!" Jasper smiles and opens the door.

I look at Techno and shrug before we both walk in.

"What did you need?" he asks, sitting at his desk.

I look at Techno and he looks back at me. I gesture towards Jasper and he furrows his brow.

"I'm taking you up on your offer. I want to join" Techno crosses his arms.

I watch Jasper's eyes light up and he grins. Not a happy grin, a devious grin. He had something planned.

Techno and Jasper start talking but I spaced out. I narrowed my eyes and furrow my brow. What was he planning? I knew he had a plan. It was to get Techno to join. He did that, but he had more planned. Much more.

"Lyra?" Techno taps my arm lightly.

"Hm?" I blink repeatedly, snapping back to reality.

"Can you do that?" Jasper asks, staring at me.

"Do what?" I ask, looking around the room slightly.

"Get Technoblade his gear. God Lyra, listen sometimes wont you." Jasper rolls his eyes.

"Sorry sir" I grumble and look at the floor.

"Go do that. We'll celebrate him joining tomorrow night." Jasper shoos us out of him office and closes the door behind us.

"What happened back there?" Techno asks, stopping me at the top of the stairs.

"Hm? Oh nothing. Just spaced out. Long last couple of days" I chuckle, focusing back at the task on hand.

"If you say so" he shrugs.

"Come on, let's get your stuff" I motion him to the room next to the cell.

We walk over and down a long flight of stairs to a dark room.

"Let's see..." I look through a barrel of belt sizes.

"Try these on" I pick a few that look like they'll fit and had them to him.

While he tries them on, I look at the swords a pick one with a red swirl and a ruby gem on it.

"This one fits best" he holds one of the belts up.

"Put the other ones in the barrel. Here's your sword." I toss him the sword and he catches it.

"Good catch" I chuckle and close the barrel of belts.

"Good throw" he nods and follows me to the closet.

"What size shirt are you?" I ask, sifting through the button up shirts and brown pants.

"Large. Same for pants." he peers over my shoulder.

I grab a large shirt and hold it up to him before nodding and handing it to him. I sift through the pants and find a large.

"Will this fit?" I ask, holding the hanger up.

"Looks like it." he takes it from my hands.

"I'll go stand at the top of the stairs and let you get changed." I smile, closing the closet.

"Sounds good" he smiles back, setting the clothes down on a box.

I walk up the stairs and sit on one of the steps, tapping my feet against the step underneath me. I kept thinking of Jasper and his mystery plan. What was he thinking? He got what he wanted, but obviously still wants more.

"You can come down now" Techno yells, stopping my train of thought.

I stand up and take a deep breathe before walking down the stairs.

"How do I look?" he asks, holding his hands out.

"Like a pirate" I nod as he smiles proudly.

We hear a bell ring and I smile.

"That's the dinner bell" I look at him and make eye contact.

"Perfect" he follows me up the stairs and back into the sunlight.

By the time we got up the stairs, a crowd had already formed.

"Come on" I grab his hand and pull him through the crowd.

We were towards the front and I had grabbed two plates on the way up. I hand him one and stand there. Then I realize I was still holding his hand. I quickly drop it and chuckle slightly.

"Sorry" I whisper and smile slightly.

"No worries" he smiles back, looking at me.
