Lokius really pulled a petrigrof huh
ngl i'm more of a casual mcu observer but after watching the Loki series...man
just wow/pos
as someone dealing with abandonment issues and crippling loneliness...haha that ending is NOT helping/hj
don't get me wrong it's a compelling and satisfying conclusion for Loki's character arc from a writing standpoint
but also he's alone now protecting the multiverse with his own hands. To give them a chance. To protect them. The people he cares about the most. He just wanted his friends back and now he's burdened with glorious purpose for eternity.
and Mobius is what just waiting for him for eternity??
It's a beautiful, heart-wrenching tragedy 😭

one thing i think is very funny about ludinus's whole "arcane is superior to the divine" thing is like. does he know that arcane magic was also given to mortals from the gods. like yeah, it's something learned now(by wizards atleast. im looking at you, sorcerers and warlocks that ludinus seems to have no issue with despite it being Very contradictory), but without the gods he wouldn't have had access to it either. actually, i don't think anyone knows what, if any, effect getting rid of the gods could have on arcane magic and i don't think he's even considered possibility. mortals were taught to make magic by the gods, but there is absolutely a chance that there's a way to block mortals off from that power and i don't think the gods would ever go down without a fight.

the thing I'm eternally undecided about is When does that dragon thing start? Like does it start with Tahir and his willful sacrifice and the ensuing relationship with Daeodon before Tahir's death, and then transition into Twohir and his quest to kill the fucking dragon who's dead lover he's the incarnation of and the Mess that is them trying to figure Their shit our while trying to resurrect Tahir.
Or do I just start with Twohir? Theres more drama and more Story to them beyond the growing pains of a new relationship. but also Tahir is my baby boy and i don't want to relegate him to backstory, and a Lot of Daeodon's vibes just Don't work without the explicit context that his words and his feelings or motivations don't always line up.
Like, without Tahir and the way the two interacted it's Way too easy to assume Daeodon made it rain endlessly for the same reason he stopped the rains entirely years ago. That his only motivation for ruining lives and destroying the forest he's lord and god of is that something was taken away from him and he doesn't care What that thing was, just that it was taken. Because this time around he really does care that it was Tahir specifically he lost.
But leaving Tahir as backstory would also make Daeodon having a heart be more of a reveal? More something Twohir and the reader discover together. But it also make Daeodon way fucking creepier.
Daeodon spends the first handful of interactions he has with Twohir (not including the one where Daeodon broke Twohir's arm) being fucking Weird. Twohir is Tahir's reincarnation, and while the two are Wildly different people, there's situations where it's too easy for Daeodon to just Pretend for a moment. And from Twohir's perspective, the fucking dragon he wants dead and to never be near him again because he considers his fucked up life partially Daeodon's fault, is constantly trying to get close to him and abuse Twohir's willingness to drink at parties and miss the little clues that would give Daeodon in his faunsona away. It's creep behavior. Even with context it's absolutely unacceptable, But with all that context and the reader already having a good insight on who Daeodon is as a person, it's creep behavior that Feels more tragic than disgusting.
But Tahir's side of the story isn't short. It's not something that can just go in a prologue, and it's not at All the same genre as Twohir's. so having the two halves butted up against each other doesn't Feel right.
like tldr: Tahir is my very special boy but how he fucked a dragon and became a love god is kinda boring compared to how his reincation fucked the same dragon, resurrected Tahir, and then also became a love god.

(Part 1)
More deities! Not as many, but they come in batches of two (because writing duos is easier than an isolated character) (reblogging and commenting is appreciated!!)
1. [Saladohn], god of trading (they/them) [sala - trade; dohn - help]
They work with the Chained and Sun-Tounched with trading goods. Very bubbly and enthusiastic! Through the goggles they can see hidden properties of objects and their profitability. Saladohn also uses them to summon helping hands as "simulation" of sorts
Also this is how "calico" Chained look! Most of the time the spots are either only brown, black or rarely ginger, but Saladohn is a special case
2. [Syrdykän], god of w*r (left) (he/they) and [Eresdan], god of love (right) (she/he)
These two have beef with each other on almost daily basis. Every century all the same.
Syrdykän usually resides in their lair and talks with the last deity about new weaponry. Stoic, strong and is apathetic most of the time. But don't think that he's only that: on the battlefield he motivates the w*arriors, gives them strength to go forward and sometimes helps with strategising. (Pretty average tbh)
They also pick fights with other gods as training. Usually with Eresdan, because she's a capable fighter when agitated. And he's always agitated around Syrdykan.
Eresdan stands for love and keeping things peaceful (no duh). He leads not just new couples, but old, long married ones. For that, he either transforms into a jay using a coat (she had a mask too, but I removed it cuz it was overloading the design in my eyes), or sends one of hers
Fun fact: Sheps say "the jay flew over you" referring to crushes because of that. Finding a jay or its feather is a sign of new love coming soon. It should be alive tho
Either way! Eresdan and Syrdykän's natures go against one another, resulting in fights. No enemies-to-lovers involved, ironically Eresdan is aromantic lol
3. [Koorstyn] (the o's are separate) god of fire and blacksmithing (he/him)
Pretty caring dude! He works with Syrdykän and provides him weapons. Unlike Gefest, he kind of... accepted that mortals need fire. Stone houses can't burn down, after all
He's able to create anything out of metal, and can handle/make fire. For it, he needs to take off the gloves, that's why he wears them most of the time
That's it! Yeah, pretty half-baked, but hey. May I suggest you a meme?
This excuses all of my sins, including drawing Pushkin in a cat maid outfit /j
