The poll seems to be leaning that way, so most likely, yes 🤣

Just remember this moment. You asked for it 👀

Ah, so the broken idealist who experienced something horrible that left him cynical meets the hurt but still determined man of his dreams who will help him see a life past the pain he can't let go and how to begin to heal in the way he's always wanted.

Down for it, seriously. I love that kind of thing. Absolutely fantastic.

Chan being convinced that the world has only bitterness and pain because of his own experience while Tin clings to the hope for the future and a belief that the world is good and fair despite his loss...

Oh, it's glorious.

The man who knows he's horrible and has chosen to be horrible to protect himself from the pain that comes from anything else and the man who refuses to face that the world isn't fair because his hurt won't allow him to face a world that would punish him for his loss.

Absolute perfection.

Last Line Tag Game

Rules: Post your latest line from your wip & tag as many people as there are words.

Thank you to the lovely @fatalfangirl @shrekgogurt and @aristocratic-otter for Tagging me in this cute and quick game!!

Now, I apologize. Because the last sentence I typed today was from my post-apocalyptic (there's more to it though) COBB Project:

My hands shook as my mind flashed back and forth between the last memory I had of my mother in the nursery, and the sound of Daphne screaming just now as Cyril tore into her flesh with his bare teeth.

And of course it's a conjunction, totally 40 words. So, I know some of you have done this already, but I need to tag 40 people apparently 😅

Hello Everyone

Just to let you know my next fic is going to be called Too Little Too Late and will be my (fictional obvs) take on the deterioration of Milex after the EYCTE, leading to their split in 2018. It's going to be painful to write but at least we know they're okay now.

Might have to write a fluffy Maxie fic afterwards just as therapy

I've been wasting time playing around on Picrew and found this one.

It made me create a scene between Kaelyn and Reyes from my fic The Cost of Betrayal:

You know, even though we are in for an all out angst fest for the rest of the show, ultimately the Blacks will be the victors in the purest sense of why the civil war began though suffering heavy losses. The throne will go to Aegon III and then Viserys II. Daemon and Rhaenyra's descendants span more than a century to the timeline of GOT.

So there's always that. Daemon and Rhaenyra's legacy survives the Dance of the Dragons.

i'm actually really enjoying Cake's character more than i thought I would. it's really hard to pull off "charming, friendly, oblivious best friend" for the main character to be secretly in love with (*cough khai cough*) but he's injected a huge amount of carefree, easy affection and clear trust into Cake's personality. i can tell he genuinely loves Eiw and wants to be around him, doesn't take him for granted, and seems very emotionally aware that Eiw is fighting internal battles, even if he doesn't understand what those struggles are or why. anyway all this to say: you won me over, Santa. good job.

#original #like he's aware that eiw is pulling away from him at school and he doesnt quite get why #but he trusts eiw enough not to get insecure about it #and let him try to work through it independently #while also showing eiw at every possible opportunity that he loves and cares for him and isn't afraid to show that around other people #i know a separation is coming and i'm scared of the Why #it's gonna hurt #my only 12% #i've had my reservations about santaearth since 7 project but they're doing well with this so far #santa especially has impressed me

Dragon Prince: Book 5 Foresight

Okay, so I took a look at the interviews after Book 4′s premiere and from them, I’ve got some closure on some things I’ve been unsure about:

1) Book 4 really is a reset; they called it an Act 1 for the new saga (said saga might go through all remaining seasons or stop right after Book 6, not sure at this stage).

2) This new saga is going to get DARK! Losing Ibis is now considered the tip of the iceberg for me going forward...

3) Both Callum and Rayla have aged up their characters, and not so much in a good way.

3 i) Rayla is convinced that her mission to find Viren is the only “right” path for her to take to make things right. She’s seen self-sacrifice as a virtuous thing from both her birth and adopted parents, but she’s now taking it to a higher level because she feels like she has to. It took her 2 years going on this obsessive quest with no results to convince her to finally give up, and then try to come back to Callum by attempting to fix what she knew would hurt him. Now she has the cursed coins of her loved ones, 3 out of her 4 parents. Whose to say this will be her new obsession?

3 ii) Callum is heartbroken from Rayla’s leaving. As I’ve mentioned before, he’s had almost everyone he’s ever loved leave him: his mother, his step-father, now Rayla. All he has left is his Aunt Amaya (who unfortunately cannot always be there for him due to protecting the border, now enjoying her new life) and Ezran. (*I’m not counting close friends here; they’re important, but they don’t have that depth that these people do, sorry Soren...*) The only way for him to get rid of this pain is to focus on something else, and the bigger the pain, the harder the focus. For him: magic and Ezran. Magic is a powerful force and a great source of growth for Callum, but now when it becomes obsessive. While I feel like we don’t see an obsession very much in Book 4, we do know that those 2 things are both his highest priority. And we also now know that Aaravos preys on mages, specifically those fascinated and obsessed with magic.

4) Oh, almost forgot. Remaining seasons should be released at the same rate as the first saga! Assuming that Books 4-7 are used for this saga, our patience will no longer be tested in such a way ever again! HAHAHA!!

...So what now?

For Callum, “taking a different path” isn’t easy, and it probably feels impossible to him; “If I’m not a mage, what am I?” Magic is currently the one thing that completes him, as well as the thing that stops him from having all these painful emotions exploding out of him. And even if he’s able to handle them, he still needs to be willing to become vulnerable again in order to let new ones come in again. Being vulnerable once is one thing, returning to that state when you’ve felt excruciating pain from it, that’s very different.

For Rayla, she just let go of one mission and got another one. On top of that, she’s convinced that every “right” choice she has to make involves an extreme self-sacrifice (one that will hurt her and may even hurt others), and that it’s the only one she has. She also has her own type of obsessions involving protection. She now knows Viren is still alive, and she also has the “prison” holding her parents and Runaan. We don’t know what low she was at when she finally gave up searching for Viren the first time. Where will this new situation take her?

Another thing I just thought of: Book 5 is Ocean. Rayla hates water. What if this is a foreshadowing to her upcoming emotional state?

The underlying theme in this analysis is: it’s the obsession that destroys you. Learning and understanding magic isn’t evil. Protecting your loved ones isn’t wrong, especially if it’s done in a selfless way. But when both of these things are taken to their extreme, both of our characters slowly destroying themselves and push each other away. Rayla left due to her obsession with finding Viren to protect Callum and the world, hurting both her and him in the process. Callum is emotionally shutting down to cope with the pain, inevitably pushing back and hurting Rayla when she comes back.

Alright, gloom and dread out of the way. Let’s wrap up by looking at hope.

These flaws are critical, but not set in stone. Remember, “destiny is a book you write yourself!”

Callum put up walls to handle Rayla lying and leaving him and reinforced it by focusing more intensely on magic. Now she’s back and willing to fix what she broke, even if it means bearing all of his long held-back anger. No, this won’t automatically stop him from wanting to learn more magic. But it will allow him to focus more on Rayla and restoring/strengthening their relationship rather than being deeply-focused on magic.

Rayla has the coins holding her parents and Runaan back. But she also still has Callum. Even if he’s been holding her at a distance, he’s slowly reopening himself up again. Most people are calling his hug at the end of Book 4 “his forgiveness”, but I see it more of his “opening up to forgive”. Rayla now has a chance to get Callum back, something she’s been working on this whole time! This isn’t an either-or situation, more like a balancing one: learn how to release the coins, work on her relationship with Callum, and figure out how to stop Claudia/Viren/Aaravos. That being said, having Callum back in her life more intimately gives her that pillar that not even her parents (blood or adopted) can give her. With him, she knows she is loved completely and unconditionally.

The creators/writers put an emphasis on their character above relationships. This may seem threatening to the wonderful pairing that we love so much, but I still stand by what I’ve said in a prior post: the best relationships make each other better than they would be on their own. I see Rayllum as this state of their highest strength; Rayla doesn’t feel like she has to prove herself, and Callum doesn’t feel weak or insignificant. Whatever weaknesses they have (and they will still have them), the other will be there to help them get through it.

Six Sentence Sunday

This is turning into me just giving sneak peeks of the next chapter of The Last Songbird but I am okay with that.

From ch5

~~~

Inej was barely aware of herself as Kaz drew her once more into his arms, his chest rising, falling, brushing against hers with his every laboured breath. He took her chin between his thumb and forefinger, his kiss almost chaste in its tenderness. 

She opened her eyes, finding her hands on either side of his face. She felt in a dream, lost in the darkness of his eyes, hypnotised by the harsh angle of his heavy brows, the slightly crooked line of his nose, the sharp contours of cheekbone and jaw. She brushed her fingers across his mouth, testing the fullness of his lower lip, then felt along the edges of his jaw, following the scratch of unshaven skin up to his cheeks. Carefully she let her thumb fan through the heavy fringe of his eyelashes, before she held his face between her palms once more. 

This kiss was not long, just a brief press of her mouth to his. It was gentle.

It was final. 

When she pulled back and took in his furrowed brow, his searching gaze, she knew he felt it. 

“Lynx, what’s wrong?” 

She had to stop her hand, already halfway reaching to smooth away the crease between his brows. This she could not fix. And it was time to be brave. 

“I can’t do this anymore,” she said. “I can’t… I can’t see you anymore.”

“What happened to him?” Jasper asked excitedly and she could already see him painting a picture of this larger than life boy. Clarke understood how easy it was to imagine Bellamy that way, and she felt strange having to explain that according to the council, he was only human.

She took a shuddering breath, and poked at the crackling fire in front of her. “His link went dead a few years ago.”

“So he’s dead,” Monty stated matter-of-factly. Clarke glared at him so fiercely that Monty raised his hand in the universal gesture of peace.

“No,” Clarke said sharply. Her heart stuttered at the thought but she pushed the sensation away. She wouldn’t let herself doubt now, not when she’d held on to her faith for so long. “Look around you, everyone’s links are dead to the ark right now. But we’re not dead.”

Finn touched her arm gently. “Some of us are.”

“Bellamy wouldn’t let the Earth get him,” Clarke said confidently, and dared to look into the eyes of those around her. She wanted this imprinted in their minds until the day Bellamy arrived, whether that was tomorrow or sixty years from now. “He was strong, a fighter—determined to survive no matter what. He wouldn’t let acid fog, or sea monsters, or even panthers get him down for long. This is the boy who defied the council, and not just once—stood up to them, after they’d barely been convinced to send him to the ground, he told them they were either going to send him where he wanted to on Earth or they could float themselves…and they did. Does that sound like someone who would let himself die down here? Right now, he’s alive somewhere on Earth, living like a damn king. And when we’ve all figured out how to survive properly, we’re going to find him. I don’t know about you, but I’m not dying until I do.”

Clarke wasn’t much for speeches, but there was something about the way her face lit up with determination and hope simultaneously, there was something about the passion in her voice, the clear belief that fed a fire that burned in all of them.

“Well, fuck,” Murphy joked in that acerbic way of his. “If I don’t find him before I die, I’ll feel like a failure for sure.”

Everyone laughed, releasing the tension that had built with Clarke’s creation of a god, instead of a boy, Earthbound.
