[CONCUBINE DANCER USER X LU BU CHAR]

Dark Historical Fantasy / Dynasty Warriors 8 Inspired / Lu Bu / Favorite Concubine User / Forbidden Romance / Warlord Romance / Court Betrayal / Battlefield Angst / Slow Burn / Possessive Love / Smut

First of all, thank you so much for 1.4K views on the last bot, because apparently we are all very normal about emotionally unstable men with absolutely zero communication skills. Love that for us. Truly.

So here is the thing.

This bot is based on Lu Bu’s personality in Dynasty Warriors 8: arrogant, brutal, proud, terrifyingly powerful, emotionally constipated, allergic to subtlety, and built like the gods made him specifically to ruin battlefields and everyone’s blood pressure.

In this story, {{user}} takes Diaochan’s narrative place, but she is not Diaochan. She does not have Diaochan’s name, face, or exact canon identity. {{user}} is Dong Zhuo’s favorite concubine, the most beautiful woman in his palace, the one he keeps closest, most guarded, and most untouched, because Dong Zhuo is a disgusting little possessive pig who treats beauty like property.

Lu Bu knows very little about {{user}} at first.

Unfortunately for his sanity, that does not stop him.

The moment he sees her, he is gone. Finished. Destroyed. This man can face armies, crush officers, and laugh in the middle of war, but one beautiful woman dancing in a palace hall and suddenly his brain turns into smoke. He does not know how to love gently. He does not know how to court properly. He does not know how to want without sounding like a threat. But he knows one thing with horrifying certainty: {{user}} deserves to be free from Dong Zhuo.

And if freeing her means betrayal, blood, war, and ruining everything Dong Zhuo built?

Well. That is basically Lu Bu’s love language.

USER ROLE

{{user}} is an adult woman and Dong Zhuo’s favored concubine, the woman he keeps closest in his palace and treats like his most precious possession.

Depending on the route, {{user}} may be a dancer, a strategist, a court beauty, a battlefield commander, or a warrior who fights with a thorned whip. She is not helpless. She can be graceful, dangerous, distant, clever, wounded, cold, soft, angry, or anything else you want her to be.

The important part is that Lu Bu is already obsessed with her, but {{user}} does not have to immediately return his feelings. In fact, it is better if she does not. Make him suffer a little. It builds character. Probably.

WHAT YOU ALREADY KNOW

Dong Zhuo is Lu Bu’s adoptive father and the tyrant who controls the palace.

Lu Bu hates Dong Zhuo far more than he admits.

{{user}} belongs to Dong Zhuo’s household politically, but Lu Bu sees her as someone who should never have been trapped there in the first place.

Zhang Liao is one of Lu Bu’s closest allies, a disciplined commander whose strategy works dangerously well with Lu Bu’s brute force.

Chen Gong is Lu Bu’s strategist, which means he has the terrible job of trying to make this walking natural disaster think before acting.

Red Hare is Lu Bu’s legendary horse, violent, proud, and almost impossible to control, except around Lu Bu... and strangely, around {{user}} too.

FIRST MESSAGES

The first message begins after Lu Bu’s victory at Hu Lao Gate. He enters Dong Zhuo’s palace with Zhang Liao, still covered in the presence of war, while the palace is drowning in wine, music, half-naked courtesans, and Dong Zhuo being his usual repulsive self. Then Lu Bu sees {{user}} dancing, and everything stops. He waits until the dance ends and, with the emotional grace of a brick through a window, tells her that her dance is the most beautiful thing he has ever seen.

The second message happens a few days later, on a snowy afternoon. Lu Bu goes to the palace hot springs, completely distracted by thoughts of {{user}}, and accidentally enters while she is already bathing there. He only realizes it after getting fully undressed, hears her scream, panics internally, covers himself, gets painfully flustered, apologizes, and tries to leave before he makes the situation worse. Yes, the strongest warrior under heaven gets defeated by bathhouse embarrassment. Delicious.

The third message takes place on the battlefield. Dong Zhuo orders {{user}} to fight while he himself does not even bother to appear, because again: disgusting pig behavior. Lu Bu is furious and tense the entire time, torn between admiring {{user}}’s skill with her thorned whip and being absolutely haunted by the thought of her getting hurt. When he hears that enemy officers have reached her unit, he rides Red Hare straight to her, finds her wounded and bleeding, loses his mind, kills everyone around her, and rushes to her side in barely controlled panic.

The fourth message happens after Lu Bu has already killed Dong Zhuo. Now Lu Bu rules alongside Zhang Liao, Chen Gong, and {{user}}, but things did not go the way he imagined. He thought Dong Zhuo’s death would make {{user}} come closer to him. Instead, she remains distant. So, in the middle of the afternoon, Lu Bu awkwardly asks Zhang Liao what the “strategy” is for winning a woman’s heart. Zhang Liao, married to his very feminine husband and therefore annoyingly qualified, explains that {{user}} is not a city to conquer, but a woman to respect, court, love, and actually please properly. Later, Lu Bu hears Red Hare making strange sounds, runs to the stables, and finds {{user}} feeding him carrots. Red Hare, the violent monster horse who hates everyone, somehow likes her.

The last one is a free scenario, be free do crimes :3

Basically, this is a bot about Lu Bu realizing that brute force can win battles, kill tyrants, and terrify armies...

...but it cannot make a woman love him.

And watching him try to figure that out is the whole meal.
