good night to people who write extremely rare-pair fanfiction, enthusiasts of the college au, people who hate canon with a passion, people old enough to have been squicked, gen z wattpad users, forgotten OCs from 13 years ago, the kudos button on ao3, people who write one-shots exclusively, the first kisses that happen on chapter 42 at the Earliest, enemies to friends to enemies again to lovers, and lastly… people who comment on fanfiction regardless of when it was posted

Can we talk about Davrin in Davrin’s arc.

How beautifully it ties together his role as a warden vs. his nature as a gentle boy who would sing to halla. Halla who don’t give their trust to just about anyone.

How it examines the hardening of heart under the pressure of being the shield between the world and the blight that Davrin refuses simply because he’s too kind and too caring and too sweet despite it all.

How him choosing to call a blighted monster by her name says more about him that anyone else; how he chooses to be humane over anything else. I would trust his judgement of monsters vs. non-monsters simply because he’s willing to acknowledge humanity where everyone else would see a monster (as does he, at first, when he lacks information).

Davrin’s arc is beautiful. It’s not about Assan or Isseya, it’s about him — these two are important because they say something about him. The beautiful soul that encompasses the true calling of a Warden. But also, the heart of a halla.

Everyone’s going on about having a ‘traditional, old-fashioned Christmas’, but when I burst into the house covered in green paint and demand a champion strike my head from my shoulders with my own axe so that I may return the blow next year, I’m ‘scaring Grandma’.

I was going to take a pic of happy Assan but instead got this gorgeous, grinning Davrin celebrating victory.

Wikihow: How to Keep Dread Wolves Away From Veil Rituals

I've seen a bunch of posts talking about Lucanis being demisexual ever since Mary Kirby mentioned it on her social media. So adding my own contribution is probably superfluous. BUT it is fun (for me at least!) to think about this scene in the context of my own demisexuality - particularly the moment where Rook touches Lucanis.

Physical touch - even intimate touch - doesn't really do much for me. I can feel it physically, obviously, but I don't really feel anything. In a worst-case scenario, I can feel actively repulsed. So when someone touches me and I do feel something, it is absolutely mind-blowing.

For example, I had a friend who I'd known since school - always just friends. But then in our early 20s, we started climbing together multiple times a week and got really very close. One day, when I'd just started a climb, he reached out and touched me on my flank to correct my positioning - something he'd done a hundred times before - and it FELT LIKE I WAS ON FIRE. I'm pretty sure I immediately fell off the wall. I can't remember when I started to feel more for this friend but I will never forget the moment he touched me and my whole body tingled.

And I think that's what we're seeing here. When Lucanis pulls back and scurries away, that's him falling off the wall. Like me with my friend - Lucanis might not be able to pinpoint the exact moment he fell for Rook but he will never forget the moment Rook pressed a solitary finger to his chest and his skin exploded with fire for the first time.
