#any romance

thinking about how they could've ruined madalena's character so many ways in galavant but they didn't < 3

#madalena #galavant #if they had gone through the richard love interest route that'd have been very not interesting and they could've also just made her the #bitch character which would've made me so mad #but they give her backstory! complexity!!! < 3 #I used to be doubtful about the maybe you're not the worst thing ever scene and thought that may be them considering richard x madalena but #later changing their mind (which idk if true) #but now I think it's great bc it has her opening up a bit when he's talking to her as a person and on their own rather than trying to push #any romance #and then she closes back up when he starts doing that again and we see her sad face after 'being forced to be the bad guy' #it's a great way to show pre- kidnapping madalena and show she's not one or the other she's both #anyway #LIKE madalena has trauma the way a traditional male hero would have trauma if that makes any sense

Sometimes...characters being in a romantic relationship is worse.

#text #sometimes it's the most boring way to have characters interact #sometimes it's worse than the chemistry they have as literally any other kind of relationship #sometimes their platonic dynamic is better #sometimes their hostile dynamic is better #sometimes their dynamic is better if it's anything other than romance #because maybe them falling into generic romance is how you ruin their characters. #aro #aromantic #aroace #i only tag these because it feels relevant to why i feel this way

the baldur's gate 3 experience when you accidentally trigger an unintentional romance because you thought you were just being a really supportive friend

#rbs turned off bc ppl kept being annoying. be normal abt this game or die by my sword. #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 #shoutout to anyone who had to turn down more than one companion & they got really sad abt it #EDIT: this was always about karlach for me. went to talk to her & was met with the 'i want to be with gale' option #without ever triggering a romance scene bc i hugged her like any regular friend would

Every single day I'm grateful for that time I stumbled on the SVSSS headcanon that while Bingqiu is considered highkey confusing and lowkey cringe in the demon realm, Moshang is known as the Power Couple™. They're the demonic love story. The 'It Couple'.

Just generations of demons sighing over the dramatic and bloody love story of the Northern King and his right hand man plus spymaster, yearning for one of their own filled with such glorious violence and betrayal! A classic childhood friends to lovers narrative filled with ups and downs and copious murder and gore! Love at first sight! The story of the loyal spy who rose up the ranks of the brutal Northern Court, culling his competition while providing vital intel to his liege, all the while infiltrating the most powerful cultivation sect in the world and eventually even becoming a Peak Lord! The slow burn of all slow burns! All kinds of spicy complicated power imbalances! Sexy, unexpected age gaps! Years of heavy plot! Decades of passionate courting! The pinnacle of inter-species forbidden romance! The tale of a man who swore eternal loyalty after falling violently in love at the very first meeting, calling a mere Prince His King in his desire and determination to see his beloved's ascension to the throne that was his birthright, and the Demon Prince who was unexpectedly presented with fierce loyalty in a life that had until then been rife with treachery and grabbed it with both hands and never looked back!

...and there's Junshan and the weird human he keeps around. Somewhat interesting if you're into that teacher-student thing I guess. There were very few deaths. Some bland murders. The trial arc and the self destruct thing plus corpse hoarding was interesting but overall very vanilla. Unseasoned. Not even a proper decade of drama. Kinda boring. And Junshan's half human so they're like Walmart version inter-species romance. But whatever the Emperor's into I guess. His dad was kinda weird too but at least his relationship with that human woman had some kick to it. The new generation just doesn't appreciate a long drawn out painful romance tsk tsk...

Like infinitely grateful to whoever first spawned that headcanon. Never fails to make me laugh. Honestly the most hilarious thing I've ever seen in this fandom. Hope your pillow is always cold and you never stub your toe.

#Also equally funny is how Bingqiu is the peak of romance in the human realm ala Resentment of Chunshan #And any human who heard of Moshang's story would be horrified but also very intrigued by the clusterfuck #Moshang is probably the equivalent of Hannigram across Jianghu #minus the cannibalism #scratch that there was probably cannibalism there somewhere #Shang Qinghua #Mobei Jun #Moshang #Luo Binghe #Shen Qingqiu #Shen Yuan #Bingqiu #Scum Villain's Self Saving System #SVSSS #Renzha Fanpai Zijiu Xitong #RZFZX #Canon Moshang is wild so I know in-universe fanon Moshang is wilder

desensitize your wizard bomb early and often

#bg3 #gale of waterdeep #gale x tav #gale bg3 #gale dekarios #i wouldve played bg3 way hornier if gale wasn't so chaste. AH WELL #early game gale is like “wait 'wizard' is slang for incel?? wtf that's not fair” and then proceeds to have the most chaste romance #yeah bud. wizard means incel #what if gale fucked way more than any of his wizard colleagues but that still means he didnt get laid til like 25 #and he's convinced he's a total chad in normal society #anyway happy valentines lol #sune

PSA: If Tav fails the weave scene…

So, I’m assuming that most players (like me) thought that you *had* to pass the “channeling the weave” scene with Gale in order to begin his romance. Makes sense, right? Gale is a learned scholar, he tells you magic is his life, so it’s understandable that even he might hesitate to romance you if you are unable to follow his simple instructions and share a moment with him.

…but nope! Nope. Of course Gale is so wonderful that even if you fail the scene, he’s still down bad for you, and to top it off? His response is one of the sweetest lines in the whole damn game.

If you are a Galemancer and you haven’t seen this before, please stop whatever you are doing, sit down, view his expression + hear his line delivery, and try not to pass out:

Tav: It was a pity your lesson in the Weave ended so soon - I was enjoying our moment alone. Do you think about us being alone again?

Gale: Do you?

Tav: Yes.

Gale: So do I. You see, I'm not a big believer in fate, but I do believe in serendipity.

Gale: Life is a tempest of events that sometimes we brace against, and sometimes embrace.

Gale: You're one such event that one day soon perhaps, I'd like to embrace.

#Some lovely Galemancers have previously shared the text dialogue for this but I've never found any video (and believe me I SEARCHED) #So I literally speedran the romance and figured out how to pull video off my PS5 just to get this footage out there LOL #GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT (more Gale) #Also I'm sorry for the giant stupid watermark but the PS5 raw vid was dark as hell so I had to improve it online >:( #baldur’s gate 3 #gale of waterdeep #gale dekarios #gale x tav #bg3

no but legitimately fizz/ozzie is so well-written and such a breathtakingly crafted romance that it only occurred to me today that the crooked scene was literally their first on-screen kiss. i have been so emotionally fulfilled by their interactions that it never even occurred to me to wonder when we'd get to see a kiss for them or wait for it as like the big "moment" of their romance arc i NEVER once felt like i was missing anything. and when they DID kiss it just felt so natural and genuine i am !!!!! AHHH

i love all the flavors of howdydarling art you make sm!! i've really been stuck on the drawings you did of wally with insomnia, i love the idea of howdy carrying his ass to bed when he shows up at the bugdega totally exhausted. i thought it'd be cute if wally stepped in to take care of howdy too when he's feeling overworked, or the two of them just collapsing into a nap pile at the end of a long day

It’s been raining all day and the vibes for cuddles n sweet shid is I m m a c u l a t e

Sometimes when I think about howdy and Wally, I think about them doing that specific lil wiggle/dance you can do with your followers in cult of the lamb smhhh (and frank really wanting to join but is very shy about it)

#Th e mb #Those three are my top favorites NDFHHDDJ #Howdy first Frank second Wally possibly third #Tho I will say I might like sally more than Wally specially with her having the chaotic personality headcanon #Absolutely love sally smhh absolute wholesome chaos #Oh yeah I still headcanon Wally and howdy to be aroace #Mostly because I can NDHGFDHDJDJ #But also I just love the thought that howdy is very generally loving and caring but when it comes to romance #He’s like- super flustered and has zero clues on how to be any of that #He tries his best smhhhh #welcome home frank #welcome home wally #welcome home howdy #welcome home eddie #howdy pillar #frank frankly #wally darling #Eddie dear #Wallypillar #Also Wally having zero clue either so they just kinda vibe and enjoy eachother’s presence #It’s nothing spectacular or ground breaking- #It’s very soft and loving with a lot of convos and understanding #And just having a good time smhhhh

Mystery Spouse

Danny and [insert any of the Batfam here] enter a whirlwind romance. (Danny on vacation while the Batfam member was on a forced too)

It's fast, it's chaotic, it's passionate. There is Oscar winning romance scenes (kissing in the rain after confessing deep feelings), miscommunication and heavy makeups. Etc etc.

In the middle of this romantic whirlwind, the two get drunk and get hitched.

When the morning after their wedding greets them they of course freak out but after talking it over they discover the pros outweigh the cons and decide to keep their marital status (and they maybe forgot due to reasons)

then the time for them to go home happens, the two keep in touch, sometimes finding time to go have dates but understand the other is normally busy with their jobs (and night jobs too, they talked about their hero personas so there is no misunderstandings)

It isn't until one of them gets hurt that their doctor gets in contact with their 'spouse' that their families discover they're married.

Cue shenanigans as their families try to dig up things on the mystery spouse.
