Finally colored the most handsome tdp character :) I’m sorry but all his gems that are Runaan’s eye color are just too cute, I can’t cope 🥹

Just playing around with ideas

[artbyamara]

They probably went around healing butterflies and Aaravos definitely made it a teaching moment for her. Oh gosh now I have to draw that 🥹

We know Aaravos is patient. He says it himself, in the short stories at least, but I love seeing it on screen. Because, man, he’s SUCH a dad in hindsight.

How many times does Viren have near meltdowns and tantrums (like when he freaks out in the pearl), but Aaravos just keeps calm and composed like it’s nothing. He’s been there and done that with Leola. He even has that slight “are you done?” look on his face too. When someone asks a question that, to him, is definitely stupid, he doesn’t shame them for asking. I’ve also noticed how sometimes he simply doesn’t address certain questions/statements and will steer the subject, almost like he’s redirecting a child.

Even with Terry and the bird, he asks Terry how he can tell it’s a mother bird, and then he waits for Terry to figure it out. He goes even further to praise Terry for getting it right. It immediately reminded me of a parent testing their child’s knowledge. Aaravos probably doesn’t even realize he’s doing that.

He has the learned patience of a father, and it is so clear when you rewatch his scenes. I love that about his character. I wonder if he had far less patience before Leola was born. Would love to see that!

Exactly! I wanted to mention this exact scene with Claudia as well but felt like I was talking too much haha. His teaching moments are the best. The episode before when he tells her about all the ingredients for the spell is one of my favorites (and not just because of that deep voice 😩)

I have a cute early Ruthari headcanon that Runaan was so desperate to impress/not offend Ethari that he basically took the blame for little things Ethari did (in an adorable, gay-disaster, non toxic way ofc!). Like if Ethari accidentally-on-purpose bumped into Runaan and tried to apologize, Ru goes “no, no, it was completely my fault. I shouldn’t be standing in your way.” (cue intense blushing). Runaan grew out of the habit but essentially, Ethari can do no wrong in his eyes til today and that’s so valid. 😌

[artbyamara]

Am I wrong for wishing we got more from the Ruthari reunion before that rude jump cut (who said that).

No but like… there was no “I’ve missed you” or “how can this be?” or “you look as beautiful as I remember” from Ethari or “how have you grown more beautiful than I remember” from Runaan OR OR OR EVEN “I love you” ???

Everything else was well done though. That ‘let me let you go’ line WRECKED me especially when Ethari won’t even allow himself to let Runaan go (the new horn cuffs, the outfit upgrade with gems in Runaan’s eye color, the scarf with the moon opal, etc)

He knows there is no letting go 😭

[artbyamara]

Leola is happy, grown up, and living her best life with her father as we speak 😌 /delulu

[artbyamara]

Run Terry, run!! 😅

[artbyamara]

The Feels by Labrinth is soo Ruthari and Rayla coded omg. The emotion! The rendition!

And these lyrics!!

“Don’t know what’s real” - Ethari

“I’m ghost, gone missing” - Rayla & Runaan

“I don’t even know if I’m here now” - very Runaan

Excuse me while I go sob and listen on repeat

[artbyamara]

Can’t wait to spontaneously combust when Ruthari call each other affectionate names like darling or when they hold hands and trade compliments or touch the other one’s hair or make eyes at each other like they’re the only two in the world or exchange I love yous while blushing or when they so much as breathe and exist in season 7… I’m very normal about them.

Had to draw the best glow up in TDP history

[artbyamara]

So Startouch elves also have time blindness like the celestial elves, maybe on a grander scale, right? I really want to see Aaravos use his divination abilities in real time. Like I want us to actually see what he sees. I want him to use all of his powers. I’m begging. 🧎🏽‍♀️
