( the spell lasts for seconds more, lilith not needing any more memories. she'd attacked that first blockage specifically but her magic would cause a ripple effect. he wouldn't regain all memories instantly but if it worked those blocks would start to crumble, his memories returning.
as she opens her eyes again her hands move from magnus, rising from the floor. there's a final sweeping motion over his body to wake him, one final look at lucy )
Only he can tell you whether it worked.
( her spell should work but this place did have some different rules )
[ The memories jumble in his mind, the first inklings of love, or something more than lust beginning to seep into the thoughts of George and Lucy. Circe and Neria, too, have their places. But it's Lucy that he wakes up to, Lucy with her desperate expression.
He sits up, clearly dazed, but concern takes over first.
He can remember... Yes, he can remember. That possessive streak inside of him when it comes to his lovers. To the ones he loves. ]
[ It's right there, forming and coalescing. Of course he didn't realize he loved her in Fort Harmony itself, but that's the moment he seizes onto. And then the other moments begin to filter in, vague and hazy at first, but the feeling is there.
It's so easy to let it back into his heart.
He moves to his knees and cups Lucy's face in his hands. ]
I love you. My precious girl, I'm so sorry. I love you, my darling.
[She is sobbing, her hands on his hands, and she shakes her head. She has him back, and there he is, his hands on her cheeks, and she missed him so much.]
I love you too, I love you so much, I missed you, please never leave me like that again-
[She sobs and finally presses her face into his shoulder.]
( there's a very obvious eyeroll before lilith steps away from them, moving to the other side of the couch, resting her hands on the back of it )
Well, now that we've established that-- ( pleasure take your gross declarations of love elsewhere ) You may wish to continue reacquainting yourselves privately.
[ He's more focused of course on Lucy in this moment than in anything Lilith is saying. But he gets the hint. Besides, he doesn't want a tearful reunion anywhere she can see either.
His arms around Lucy, he starts to shift them towards their feet. He peppers kisses in her hair, but when they're each other their feet, he gives Lilith a nod. ]
I owe you.
[ He knows it. She knows it. He'll just have to wait until it comes due. ]

Magnus.
[She absolutely refuses to burst into tears, so naturally she does, reaching for him.]
My lord, do you remember, please, tell me-
