maya 🤝 ghilanna

religious women having an inner crisis because they fell in love with a vampire

#serana and astarion 😩 #maya is a hopeless little lesbian with a huge crush #ghilanna is very much not a people person #she spends more time with the dead than the living as a mortarch #so she has to struggle with the fact that not only did she fall in love with the very thing she swore to her god she would eliminate #but the fact that she even fell in love at all #she truly didnt even think herself capable of forming friendships let alone feeling love for another person #everybody (her included) though her as cold and unfeeling #she cared aboit her work and she cared about comforting the mourning #and was always very particular in what she would say #so she definitely has a lot of emotional intelligence and can read other people very well #she was just always shut away with her work that she never really had the time to truly bond with anybody #when the only people she would intersct with were mourning people looking for funeral rites / embalmings / just words of guidance #so she probably just didnt believe herself capable of interacting on a normal basis #how fitting that suave astarion is the first one to warm her cold metaphorically-dead heart #and the ice queen is the one to warm his literally-dead heart LMAO #oc: maya artorius #oc: ghilanna silverhand
