Pre-reading notes:

1. This is a spin-off for Lys from Star-Crossed but it can be read as a standalone oneshot. I’ve tried my best to translate the events of that fic into Lys’ POV but feel free to shoot me a message if something still confuses you.

2. Lys is a mind-reader, Baekhyun has the ability to influence physical objects with his mind, Yixing is a dragon and he’s the leader of the clan (Bulibasha), and Kai - as we all know - can teleport!!

3. Glossary: bulibasha - clan leader, dado - father, dya - mother, gadjo - someone of non-romani descent / origin, dragă - darling, iubirea mea - my love, lautari - a group of romani musicians, zakono - a key institution for enforcing the Romani Code.

"Baekhyun was a liar." I mean...only about one thing... Lys, I love u, but I will fite u.

He's feeding her. Romance is setting sail...

Does he have a girl? Shoot, *rolls up sleeves* It's a messy job, but I will make the sacrifice.

*faintly* Not...the chain veil...*passes out due to lack of oxygen*

YASSS DADDY, PIN ME TO A TREE AND TELL ME YOU BELONG TO ME! XD

*weeping* Not the almonds again. I-I-I--my love language is being fed...

OF COURSE THAT'S MY WORST FEAR HE IS MY HONEYBUNCH SUGARPLUM PUMPYUMPYUMPKIN, HE'S MY SWEETIE PIE!!!

What was the knife originally for? Oh. Okay. Nvm. I mean, I'm torn. I'm Lys, but...we all know who I really am, and...I sympathize with Lys, I really do, but... A Bladerunner's about to cut a .

O.O He lost a ****** ?! That's...that's intense. Whew. *sits down and contemplates life*

The ending was really romantic but I'm still stuck on his nub! XD TT.TT Kai McStubbins!
