The witches daughter
Dirk x reader. Medieval au
(An: hey! So we all know homestuck is kinda fill in the blank with some characters, so for this Rose is going to have the same hair and skin color as you.)
"(F/n)!" Your mother called from downstairs.
"Coming!" You walk down the stairs to see her putting on her cloak.
She smiles at you, short hair just covering her forehead.
"Ill be going into the woods to look for some things. Watch the shop."
"Yes mother!" You take your place behind the counter.
She walks out and you marvel at her.
Your mother was Rose Lalonde. One of the most powerful witches of all time.
She belongs to an order called the Skia's. With your aunts Roxy, Jade, and Jane.
You were currently training to become part of the order as well.
The house you lived in was deep in the woods and doubled as a shop, where you sold small potions and spells.
The woods were on the outskirts of a kingdom called Derse ruled by king David. He had two sons one your age and another around ten.
You never sell anything dangerous of course, just small potions and charms to make every day life better.
It was a simple life.
Usually kings would try and kill witches but since the king decided since he had no quarrel he wouldn't interfere with your lives.
The door of the shop opened and in walked a knight, and from the markings on his armor it looked like an important one.
He has blonde hair and a sharp jawline and looked your age or maybe a little older.
His orange eyes examined your shop and then landed on you. He smirked at you.
"Excuse me fair maiden." His voice is smooth and deep,"Do you know where I might find a shop?"
"Other then the one your standing in there's nothing for miles. May I help you?"
"Oh. Well you see one of my men was attacked around these parts."
You raised an eyebrow,"really? Thats odd."
"Well he was. By a witch," he spoke as if it should to be the most impressive thing you'd ever heard.
It wasn't.
"And who was this witch?" You ask blandly.
"We don't know. But he described her as a tall woman with (h/c) hair and (s/n) and purple eyes."
"Wait a second," you stop him,"did this guy have black hair, blue eyes, and wearing purple?"
He pauses,"how did you know?"
You sigh,"did he happen to mention that before he was attacked he tried to grab the witches daughter?"
He blinks at you,"no he didn't."
You smile,"your in the right shop. But your man came in yesterday looking for a potion for making lust. When I td him we don't make those he got violent and made a grab for me. You can't blame my mother for being protective. And besides she just threw him out."
"He described dark magic!"
"He described regular magic. She just picked him up and tossed him out the door. We don't use dark magic on people."
He just stared at you.
"So are you looking to buy something?"
"Not particularly."
"Well thats a shame. We have good magic for knights."
"Im not a knight. I happen to be the Prince of Derse," he says.
"Who currently has the same job as a knight," you point out.
He lets out a slight chuckle,"you make a fair point."
You walk out from behind the counter and lead him to one of the shelves and started to point at the jars,"this will help your armor feel lighter, this is a special polish that will keep your sword sharp for twice as long, oh this is my favorite!" You pull out a blue spray bottle,"Its a perfume to wear into battle that caused your enemies to shake uncontrollably."
"Your suggesting I wear perfume into battle?"
"Not just any perfume. This perfume," you smile.
He gives you a slight smile in return,"alright what else do you have?"
You continue to take him around the shop pointing out things he may like and even a few that even you think are odd.
He laughs at your enthusiasm and keeps calling you adorable, but you cant help that you love your work.
Your both back at the counter with him paying by the time your mother gets home.
She see's you two and laughs,"hello (f/n). And nice to see you Dirk," then walks up the stairs.
"That was odd. I never told her who I was."
"She knows much more then you'd think."
"Can she see the future?"
"Sometimes! Just one of the many talents my mother is blessed with."
"And what about you?" He says leaning over the counter,"what are you blessed with?" He winks.
You smile and put one of the coins he handed you on the counter.
Letting out a slow breath you focus your energy on the coin.
It floats off the counter and begins to spin for a good three seconds before dropping.
He stares blankly at the coin.
"I know its not much but powers grow over time."
"Not much? That was amazing! I honestly thought you were making all of this up!"
"Then why are you buying five potions?"
He blushes,"I um...."
You giggle,"oh. Im afraid we don't sell  love potions Dirk."
He stares at his feet his face turning red,"right. Well I'll be going then."
"Oh wait a second!" You grab a small bird figurine.
You take his hand and place the small figurine in his palm. Then you blow lightly on the bird and it starts moving. You close his hand over it.
"For your brother!" You blush a little,"and I'd like to give you something else."
He stares at you for a moment,"alright."
"Close your eyes."
His eyes close and you lean over the counter pressing your lips to his.
His eyes open but then shut again and he leans closer to you.
You stay for a moment before pulling away,"for luck."
He smiles,"well I certainly feel lucky."
"Will I see you again?"
"You couldn't get rid or me if you tried."
"Tomorrow then?"
He takes your hand and places a light kiss on the back,"tomorrow."
