So, we all agree that Meliodas tries to kiss Tristan on the cheeks or forehead whenever they are in front of Lance and the others, right? He does it partly to annoy his son and partly because the cranky teenager Tristan is just as adorable as he was as a child...🤭
It's all canon okay? We all agree. 🥹💗 (sorry i drawing that lol)

Can i request headcanons of arthur pendragon(both 7ds and 4koa) with a couple like katherine Howard from six? Maybe they meet eachother from childhood and k.h reader gets a happy ending!
I FUCKING LOVE SIX THE MUSICAL!! And Katherine Howard was so cute! Deal!
Arthur Pedragon SDS/4KOTA x Katherine Howard! Reader
Genre: Headcanons
Reader: female
Warnings:reader had a life similar to Katherine Howard (that is, a life full of neglect, abuse, etc.) but she ends up having a happy ending :3, Arthur from 4kota is a warning himself but Arthur from 7ds is a sweetheart, Angst and Fluff.
Plus: read this while listen this song>
(reader)'s life was always a roller coaster.
His father belonged to one of the richest families in Camelot at the time, but since he was not the first son, he did not receive much of the prestige or inheritance that would have been his.
(reader) lived in a relatively well-off place despite everything, with her parents and siblings.
However, when (reader) was little, her mother died, which led her father to have to ask for many favors to be able to keep the house afloat on his own.
In the end she failed, and (reader) was sent to live with a distant relative in the center of Camelot, where she was supposedly better off.
and to be fair, it was.
because there she met him...
One day, (reader) had left her relative's house to avoid the music classes that were scheduled for that day.
The bad thing is that since she had never been to that part of the city, she got disoriented and lost quite easily.
Fortunately for her, a boy (the same age!) saw that she was having problems and offered to escort her home.
Now, (reader) was a sociable girl, so it was quite easy for her to make conversation with the boy and get to know him a little better.
It turns out that he was practicing how to handle the sword with his brother Kai (a bad btw), but since he got angry with him he took a break.
His father was a holy knight! (reader) didn't understand what they were, but the stories she read about knights when she was bored gave her the idea that it was something exciting.
In the end, the boy said goodbye to her and left the way he came, although at least not without giving his name.
Arthur...
As you may have noticed, (reader) knows Arthur in his time before he had the sword, when he was something like his father's squire.
and definitely after that he started looking for (reader) on his own when he knew where she lived.
They even began to have a rather funny dynamic in which Arthur would try to make her laugh in the last minutes of their peeking (through the windows).
and in general they were one of the few friends the other had.
But when a certain... incident... happened with (reader's) music teacher.
Arthur only arrived to see how some holy knights took him away, but he knew that for some reason (reader) he skipped that man's class...
and when he found out, well, let's just say the music man was lucky Arthur hadn't been there.
Arthur was furious! How dare that pig put his hands on (reader)?
You could say that this determined the dynamics of their friendship during the following years thanks to (reader's) love-struck nature.
While Arthur trained with Merlin and became stronger, (reader) became more popular with men for her beauty and cute personality.
Although of course, it was a double-edged sword.
There would always be someone who would be especially insistent or who didn't understand "no", but luckily Arthur could take care of that easily ;)
When Arthur takes the sword out of the stone, (reader) is the first to run towards him to congratulate him, she even gives him a small kiss on the cheek as a "reward" (Arthur is as red as a tomato at the time, he flatly denies it) .
Thanks to him being king, Arthur and (reader) can't see each other as much as before :( but they maintain communication through letters and try to see each other as much as possible.
low key, (reader) admires Merlin quite a bit at first, it's a hunch (a powerful and beautiful woman in complete control of the situation and her body, you can get the idea).
For this reason, they both talk a lot about the deadly sins and share the enthusiasm.
Now, if in the events of NNT's story (reader) she ends up meeting her "Francis" or worse yet, her Henry VIII, let's just say things are going to get... ugly.
There is no way in which Arthur will not see the giant red flags of either relationship (in a way by seeing certain parallels with the case of the music teacher), so he will be quite firm in his dislike of said relationships. especially with the Henry.
After all, what is a 50-year-old man doing near a teenager? creepy vibes.
Also influencing a little is the fact that Arthur may or may not realize that he likes her (reader), although part of him just wants to say that she is his friend! that she is very kind and pretty and that she sings and dance very well and that her talks about dog breeds is the most beautiful thing he has ever heard....
Oh no--
If we're talking about a scenario in which (reader)'s family arranged a marriage with this Henry, Arthur puts his foot down and may even use his position as king to get (reader) to break the engagement herself (which she happily does).
(Regarding Francis, they would both simply agree to ask Merlin as a favor to use illusory magic and give him the scare of his life. It's super effective).
(reader) was definitely extremely traumatized when Arthur was "killed" in the second holy war. absolutely horrified (even more so by that time they were already dating).
and when Arthur is resurrected by (the power of the script) chaos, let's just say they're both stuck with each other for quite some time...
and that translates into the current relationship they have in 4kota. which is like Katherine Howard's happy ending basically.
(reader) was obviously very marked by the holy war and definitely by Arthur's almost death, so she tends to be around him a lot of the time.
more after the total destruction of Camelot.
They both officially get married! (probably before Merlin left) and overall you could say that their relationship has only become more secure in several ways.
Arthur is still quite protective, but on a much more visible and understandable level, after all (reader) she is his wife, the queen of Camelot, if his enemies try to get to him, one way to do it is through her, so of course The times when (reader) decides to leave Camelot (usually on her family's funeral anniversary) she usually goes with Arthur.
Besides, it's not like Arthur is offering to spend extra time together.
(reader) developed her dancing skills over the years! apart from that he was even able to learn to play several instruments (with extra supervision of course).
from time to time you can hear when (reader) does a little performance for Arthur in the throne room when there is nothing to do and he is bored :3
Although yes, only he can see (the reader) dance, if someone does it, whether by accident or secretly, it is at least a safe pass to the dungeon :)
ARTHUR BRINGS DOGS TO THE PALACE! Canonically, the man is pet friendly, so seeing how much (the reader) loves dogs, there is no way I wouldn't get him at least one.
It would probably be some cute but protective breed, like a Labrador or a Collie.
Arthur acts like he can't stand said dog/dogs very much, but after a week the dog/dogs already have a place at the table next to (reader)😅🤣
Arthur is fine with (reader) not advancing in her studies, honestly it is a lot (for the time) that she knows how to write and read so well, but if she wants to help out with the paperwork aspects, he will allow it! oe will assign someone to guide you through the process until you can do it alone or, if you can, you will teach it to them.
Arthur feels very good teaching (reader) new things.
(If the reader's previous "suitors" are still on the loose or didn't die in Camelot, you can bet Arthur is going to correct that).
(reader) has a fashion sense quite inclined to French fashion, and Arthur doesn't blame her, she looks very adorable in the soft colors.
(reader) may even develop the habit of embroidery to pass the time when Arthur is away, she makes quite nice pieces (Arthur definitely shows them off to "Merlin")
(reader) is not really involved in politics due to her lack of education, and honestly Arthur is grateful that this is the case because he knows that (reader), being the empathetic being that he is, would not like to see a good part of what he does. for the sake of the eternal kingdom, but he knows it will be worth it.
Arthur and (reader) dancing together🥺 it doesn't matter if it's in sds or 4kota, I can definitely see (reader) dragging Arthur to the floor to dance together.
Arthur from sds definitely prefers to dance faster and "funner" things and vary a little from ballroom dancing (actually it's because it makes him nervous)
Arthur from 4kota is fine with whatever style (reader) chooses, but he has definitely learned to 1-improve his dance skills (thanks to reader) and 2-appreciate the closeness that ballroom dancing provides. especially in the throne room.
Either version will not tolerate any attempt to shame (reader) for her "history with other men" and will take it VERY badly.
Arthur from sds will defend (reader) tooth and nail, but if he can't reason with people, he simply applies a *little* bit of violence so they learn not to defame a pretty lady (he breaks their nose) .
with Arthur from 4kota...do I really have to say it? They will be lucky if they are whole after saying such blasphemy in front of him.
Arthur is definitely VERY determined to maintain (reader's) little remaining innocence, they've already been through so much, let them have a happy ending (even if that includes eliminating all races).
In general, no matter what past or "history" (reader) may have, Arthur loves her and sees her as her own person, let things move forward in their time, and will fight for his lady's honor.
Shares, reblogs and comments are very welcome!
Thanks for the Request ❤️

Do you have any Tristan, Lancelot, or trilance headcanons?(that part of the fandom is so dead like what???)
I’m a little zooted rn but I’ll try to answer this LMFAO. I don’t have HCs for Lancelot BUUUT I have some for Tristan
Tristan
Mommas boy at heart but secretly admires his dad (Meliodas’ loyalty to Elizabeth and to his people, his kindness, etc.)
Let’s his mom braids his hair/teaches his dad to braid his hair. I hc that he loves Dutch braids, especially with his bangs out.
He HATES being alone
He definitely still has a favorite stuffed animal or blanket (more kudos if it’s from his mom).
I’ll repost this if I can think of some more LOL

Seven Deadly Headcanons
Or seven thoughts I have about the Seven Deadly Sins.
Ban has definitely gone Gordon Ramsey on Meliodas at some point for not only his terrible cooking but also because he can't organize a kitchen for shit.
Ban spent several nights reorganizing the Boar Hat's kitchen and has a system for keeping things tidy. Meliodas once messed with this organization system and Ban's response was putting up a sign that said Meliodas was banned from the kitchen. The ban was lifted only when Meliodas put things back in their place. He's banned from cooking but not from being in the kitchen.
Due to his rough circumstances growing up, Ban is very insistent on the Sins getting their three meals a day. He'll even make accommodations or adjustments to dishes to make sure that they can appeal to others. No one is going hungry when Ban's around. Even Gowther - who probably doesn't need to eat due to him being a doll - is not immune from this.
Gowther has a soft spot for romance novels and he and Merlin have a lil' book club where they discuss their current reads. Escanor and Diane joined in eventually.
I feel that most of the Sins would be bilingual multilingual headcanons my beloved . Meliodas, Gowther, and Merlin would know the demon's language. Meliodas would try learning the goddesses' language because of Elizabeth and Merlin would already know it and she'd probably know Welsh. King would know the fairy's language and whatever Liones' vernacular is. And while Ban may not be as fluent in it, he's trying to learn the fairy's language from Elaine and King. And yes, Benwick would be a bilingual kingdom and you can pry that headcanon from my cold, dead hands. Also, Diane would know both Liones vernacular and the giants' language. Actually, King would also know the giants' language. Escanor would know multiple human languages.
Ban was lowkey having the mother of all panics when Elaine was pregnant because he didn't want to mess up as a parent and wanted Lancelot to have a good childhood. So when Lancelot and Jericho disappeared, that time was just really rough for him because emotions are a bitch and he was just constantly blaming himself. If he had done something, then his son wouldn't have disappeared.
During Lancelot's disappearance, Ban developed a tradition of pouring out a bottle of Aberdeen on the night of his son's disappearance. Also, he was kind of forced into more healthy ways of coping because without his immortality, he couldn't fall back into self-harm. And he couldn't drink himself senseless because he had a kingdom to lead as the king of Benwick.

Arthur Pendragon of Camelot (7Deadly Sins) Head Canons
This is my first attempt at writing headcanons. I've recently been rewatching the anime Seven Deadly Sins and have grown fond of King Arthur. After giving his character some thought this is what I came up with.
Has a strong passion for adventure. Likes to travel and find new discoveries.
Although he is very skilled with the sword and receives praise for it. He sometimes has doubts in his abilities and doesn't think he's all that great because he's yet to awaken his true potential.
Appreciates Merlin for her guidance, training, and staying by his side. Sometimes he wishes she'd let him have some space. He knows that she means well and is only looking out for his well being; but he wants the opportunity to be able to prove himself all on his own.
Looks up to Merlin for her wisdom, strength, feats, battle strategies, and abilities.
Cringes whenever others get the wrong idea about his relationship with Merlin. He has acknowledged her beauty and wit; however he just can't come to view her in a romantic or intimate light. It's simply because she's the only person he's ever had close to a maternal figure.
Has had a few moments where he almost had a slip of the tongue calling Merlin his Mother.
Is unaware of Escanor's jealousy towards him. Has tried to make small talk with him before but failed. When he finally got a break through he found delight in conversation and was given new combat tips.
He actually looks up to the Lion Sin in ways similar to how he looks up to Merlin.
Enjoys hearing Escanor recite his poetry during the evening time when ever the sins gather for drinks and food.
Secretly ships Merlin with Escanor. He has never seen her involved with any one before. However after seeing how fond the Lion Sin is of her, Arthur began to root for the tall, burly man in hopes that he'd win the Boar Sin over. If he wanted to see his mentor happy with anyone it would be Escanor.
Has nightmares about Cath from time to time. He's too proud to tell Merlin and sometimes has trouble going back to sleep when ever he has one.
Will get triggered when seeing a domestic cat walking towards him or within his vision in general. He's aware that their harmless, but the very sight of one reminds him of how Cath resembled an innocent animal and then transformed into a vicious bloodthirsty creature.

I wanna talk about wings
Just in general, rather than any specific Fairy's wings this time.
SO I was gonna a make a post comparing Fairy wings to irl insect wings, but the most I learned about insect wings the more I found I actually didn't have the point I thought I did, so I scrapped that. But I still wanna talk about stuff so.
I now know a lot about bug wings! which are way more complicated than you might think... They look like they're just "dead" material like keratin on mammalian bodies, BUT NO. Chitin is significantly different actually. It's more flexible than keratin is for one thing. And insect wings are actually made of "cuticle" which is different layers of chitin put next to each other. The veins of insect wings can have "blood" flow and even nerves. So wings are actually kinda living structures. The membrane between the veins does seem to be comparable to keratin, in that it doesn't have the blood flow or nerves. But still it's chitin so it's flexible.
Why was I looking this stuff up? Cuz when Harlequin kills Helbram for the first time and he falls over, his wings look very...fabric-y and that always bothered me cuz I always thought insect wings were more rigid then that. But apparently not. Nakaba may have trouble with human anatomy but apparently he knows more about wings than I do :p.
But anyway, since that always bothered me, and my general obsession with fairy wings, I'm always paying a lot of attention to how the fairy characters' wings move in the anime and in the grand cross mobile game to compare them to each other and look for consistency. I run a full fairy team in Grand Cross consisting of Helbram, Harlequin and Gerheade. I also have Gloxinia and Elaine so I can look at their wings too when need be. So I get a lot of time to observe the wing movements. And there are significant differences between the fairies that have starkly different wing structures. And I suppose I have a theory as to why?
As far as I can tell, the reason for the sharp difference in how the wings move between, say my main 3, had to do with the vein configurations of each fairy's wings. Harlequin, Helbram and Gerheade all have different vein configurations from each other. I took some videos of every fairy's grand cross models during idle movements, as well as when they have an attack ready, to show the differences in the movement.
These two have to be separate cuz when you select an action for all three the battle proceeds.
We already know Helbram has substantial flexibility to his wings. Harlequin's wings move and flex about the same way an irl butterfly's do, which is a moderate amount of flexibility. Gerheade's wings seem to be markedly stiffer. If you look at the vein configurations of each fairy's wings, which are better illustrated in the anime than the 3D models, you can see that they are very different.
Gerheade and Harlequin both have very insectoid looking wings, because to veins fork to create cells like irl bugs. Helbram though, doesn't have any cells in his wings, he only has vertical veins that don't fork at all. And between Gerheade and Harlequin, Harlequin's wings have larger cells in general as well as large central cells.
I'm inclined to believe these differences in the number and size of the cells formed by the veins are what causes the difference in flexibility. Since Gerheade has smaller cells, the veins are closer together giving her a more rigid structure, while Helbram lacks cells altogether so he has very little structure over all, giving his wings are more fabric-like movement. Harlequin is somewhere in the middle. Gloxinia and Elaine fall into the same category as Harlequin as they both have very much butterfly-like wings which have the large and small cell configuration.
All this being said, I still don't actually want to believe that Fairy wings are made of chitin. Simply cuz I don't know if that makes sense. Based on the very limited information we have about reproduction, it seems that Fairies are mammals? And mammals don't make chitin. We do, however, make cartilage. Which is a material that offers comparable flexible/semi-rigid structure to chitin. Like your outer ear. That structure is cartilaginous, you can just fold that right over on itself and it doesn't even hurt. But it still hold it's structure all on it's own. So the headcanon that I've held from the beginning is that Fairy wings are actually cartilage and some kind of skin. I drew a diagram for this when I was figuring out how the wings attach.
The dark grey indicates cartilage
My theory/headcanon is that when Fairies get their wings a fully cartilaginous ball-and-socket joint forms attached to the inner edge of the shoulder blades and underlying ribs. The veins are cartilaginous structures, while the membrane is skin. So, unlike with insectoid wings, if you damage the membrane of a Fairy wing it'll bleed. But, also unlike insect wings, Fairy wings can heal since they're fully living tissue with blood supply through the entirety of the structure rather than just in the veins like insect wings.

My first contribution to this fandom is this six page essay i wrote on gloxinias morality for ethics class.
More under the cut
Gloxinia of Repose is a character from the Netflix show The Seven Deadly Sins, and ultimately one of the more interesting characters within the show. Gloxinia’s morality is a warped and twisted version of consequentialism. Gloxinia serves as a minor antagonist through the series, though in the end he ends up as something akin to a ‘hero’. However, due to the nicheness of the show itself, some background information is vital to understanding Gloxinia’s complexly twisted morality.
The setting of The Seven Deadly Sins is a vaguely medieval time period, with a fantasy genre. Gloxinia is part of a gang labeled The Ten Commandments whose goal is to take over the land of Britannia. Opposing The Ten Commandments is a group called The Seven Deadly Sins.
It’s a rather simple ‘good versus evil’ fight, with The Ten Commandments generally having some twisted morality and a dislike for most of the other races.
However, Gloxinia was something of an odd character. He was not outright bloodthirsty. He was sadistic and childishly cruel, yes. He seemed to prioritize fun over actually doing his job properly, and was willing to put on a big performance rather than fighting with all his might. Most notably, Gloxinia had a particularly pessimistic view of the world and seemed to have some sort of grudge against humans. He even went so far as to call them a “Vial repugnant race”. To add to this, he also was shown to be rather lazy and self centered. The only person he was actively nice to was his friend Drole. Every other person who allied with the humans, he attempted to kill in the most fun way possible and was shown to get rather annoyed when people strayed from his little ‘game’.
Then, he did a quick switch up. He stopped being awful after he helped to kill his ex friend, Meliodas. All through the fight scene with Meliodas, Gloxinia could be seen actively feeling bad. This scene is extremely important, because it proves that Gloxinia is not sociopathic. He does have some sort of twisted morality behind him.
Then, after that, he switches and decides to help out The Seven Deadly Sins, giving Harlequin and Diane a large portion of his own power to do so. He discovers his dead sister was still alive, and ends up sacrificing himself in order to let The Sins escape from the demon Chandler, and to attempt to make up for all of his wrong doings. He ends up dying rather quickly, but he seems content with his choices, as he did die with a smile on his face.
Through all of this, he also has his friend Drole right by his side. The two even end up dying together. Drole and his sister were his favorite people, and Gloxinia was not ever shy in showing that. He would heal Drole with a very limited healing ability, and the loss of his sister incited a 3,000 year long mental breakdown. This mental breakdown is where his crueler persona developed, and it’s what caused Gloxinia to join The Ten Commandments to begin with.
Yet, despite his clear adoration for his friends, he did not extend the same kindness to Meliodas. He actively helped kill Meliodas, and while Gloxinia clearly felt bad for Meliodas that did not stop his horrible actions. So the question is: Why? Why was Gloxinia willing to pick and choose which of his friends he killed off? Why was he willing to heal Drole, and go on a warpath for his sister Gerheade, yet he could not even find it in himself to spare his other friend? They all seemed just as close from the few interactions we saw. So what on Earth made Gloxinia willing to pick and choose between his friends? Well, the answer is simple. Gloxinia is a consequentialist, and he believed killing Meliodas was for the greater good.
According to Russ Shafer, author of The Fundamentals of Ethics, fifth edition, “If you have a choice between two options and the first is less good than the second, then the first can’t possibly be right.” This is a good way to sum up the entire thought process of consequentialism. The whole moral theory is based upon doing whatever good possible (Shafer-Landau). It is about minimizing damage and picking the best option from the wreckage, even in a bad situation (Shafer-Landau).
However, consequentialism is not without its issues. It is a rather easy morality to sway if you have the wrong ideals. As put by Alvin I. Goldman, author of RELIABILISM, VERITISM, AND EPISTEMIC CONSEQUENTIALISM, “Consider Judith Thomson's (1976) example of a transplant surgeon who encounters a patient during a routine check-up and decides to chop him up, take his organs, and transplant them in five other patients, each in need of one of those organs. From a teleological point of view, this action is good, perhaps even right. Greater overall happiness will be promoted by this action than by simply attending to the original patient and letting those in need of organ transplants die (Goldman).” As Goldman puts it in this quotation, prioritizing the needs of the many is not always necessarily ethical.
Now, this relates to Gloxinia and his moralities quite easily. He felt Meliodas was a threat. Meliodas had been branded a traitor to the demon race and The Ten Commandments were supposed to kill Meliodas and free the rest of the demon race from the seal.
Gloxinia had always been the type to weigh his options carefully. To try and choose the least harmful path, or the path that did the most good, as consequentialists tend to do. It is important to note that after being betrayed by a group of humans, Gloxinia saw humans as evil at this point. This is absolutely integral to his character, and the choices he makes. He chooses to try and kill Meliodas, one of his oldest and only friends, because Meliodas sided with the humans.
To Gloxinia, killing off all of the evil humans who tried to kill his sister was a good thing. Humans were a disgusting race which he despised. It only made sense for him to try for genocide. Meliodas was an obstacle to him at that point, and Gloxinia, in the truest consequentialist fashion, chose to help kill Meliodas. Gloxinia was clearly not happy about it, indicating that this decision was not one chosen lightly. This was something that made him consider his own moralities, and ultimately choose to attempt to do something that felt less wrong to him. Which is where helping Harlequin and Diane came into play.
He ended up helping them figure out how to be more powerful, while also informing them on the events that led the demon race to be sealed to begin with, as well as the events that led him to ultimately become a Commandment.
It would be a crime to speak on all of this, and leave out the most important event of Gloxinia’s life. An event that he based his entire morality off of, and the one that led Gloxinia to being a Commandment. His sister's death.
This whole event happened because he trusted a group of humans. The humans ended up betraying him and cutting off his sister's legs, her eye, and half of her wings. One human defected from the group and tried to save Gerheade, but Gloxinia spotted the human holding what he assumed was her mangled corpse and murdered the human. Then, Gloxinia went on to continue killing humans. As many as he could find. Zeldris found him and offered to let him join The Ten Commandments.
This was the greatest showing of his consequentialist nature showing through. To Gloxinia, killing off humans was for the greater good. The action may not have been fun, but it was something that had to be done. Or the humans may go around doing the same to others. While Gloxinia certainly did have fun with it, he still was doing it willingly.
What Gloxinia experiences when he changes sides and decides to kill humans is actually referred to as moral disengagement. Which, according to Helet Botha, author of Existentialist Perspectives on the Problem and Prevention of Moral Disengagement is “ Moral disengagement was originally conceived of as a psychological process—a set of cognitive mechanisms—whereby an individual becomes capable of dissociating with their internal moral standards and thus behaving unethically without feeling distress (see also Newman et al., 2020) (Botha).” This is how Gloxinia was able to do such a quick switch from liking humans to hating them.
Some people may attempt to argue that his morality could possibly be psychological egoism. A good way to sum it up is by Di Carlo Emiliano, author of Antecedents of Deviant Behavior: Psychological and Non-Psychological Factors and Ethical Justifications, “According to the homo economicus assumption, the human being is a self-serving individual only interested in maximizing its utility function (Jensen & Meckling, 1976) (Carlo Emiliano).” In other words, humans are selfish. They put themselves first, for better or worse. And considering how Gloxinia attempts to commit genocide against humans due to his own trauma, it may certainly see that way.
There’s no denying that everything Gloxinia did was tinged with a bit of selfishness. He killed, he separated families. Broke apart entire generations all because he decided he hated something. His sister turned out to be alive after all, and he apparently just left her there. He certainly thought she was dead, but that does not change the fact that it was selfish. Not only that, but a lot of Gloxinia’s dialogue would lead you to believe that he truely and genuinely believes that all humans are selfish. And he absolutely does. Which is why he goes out and kills the humans he’s killed.
“Is it appropriate to sacrifice one person to save many?” Is the question asked by Yoshiyuki Takimoto, author of Verification of the Japanese Version of Greene’s Moral Dilemma Task’s Validity and Reliability. This question is a great example of consequentialism, and Gloxinia’s overall mortality. He is willing to sacrifice one person to save many. And in the end, he sacrificed himself to try and slow down the demon Chandler. He lost and died. It was his way of bringing good out of all of the bad he had caused. The ultimate sacrifice.
So, with all of this being said, it’s quite clear that Gloxinia of Repose from the Netflix show The Seven Deadly Sins had a consequentialist morality. He constantly weighed the pros and cons of his own actions, was deliberate in the way he approached things, and consistently did his best to try and bring true goodness. Even though it was a very flawed and scary stance to take- genocide just really isn’t the correct answer for most problems. He still took this stance with the idea that what he was doing was absolutely and entirely good. And in the end, in an attempt to make things right, he sacrificed his own life. He died for his morality, his viewpoints, and to protect the very friends he tried to kill.

I know Nakaba in not going to give anything with these two so I´ll have to make the content.
They both did see each other at such a young age that it seemed like a dream.

So I watched Cursed by Light for the first time yesterday (even though I started watching sds circa 2017, I'm just late to the game🤪) and I have so many thoughts !! Might do more analysis later, but here's my initial thoughts
I NEED more Meliodas and Zeldris interactions like it is a NECESSITY
Elizabeth was so badass in this movie I love her and it made me want to see "Bloody Ellie" even more omg
On the topic of Elizabeth, I love her bc she's such a girls' girl. Like, find her a woman, and they will be besties. I mean Merlin, Diane, Elaine, Gelda, even Derieri - she's just such a girl lover !!
And it's pride month so legally, everyone has to agree with bi!Elizabeth... jk... kinda lol (honestly every single sin is queer in my head, im prohecting my queer onto all nnt char)
Cursed by Light DEFINITELY best movie like hands down
BUT I actually kinda wish that the Supreme deity plotline was part of the show rather than a one off movie
Like I want it as a season. I feel like her character had so much potential not only for cool plots and battles, not only for the resurrection of the goddess race and the problems that would cause, but also for Elizabeth's emotional and physical/power arc
Anyway I will be thinking of at least a half season to combat the SD, complete with flashback to and before the Holy War and Elizabeth defeating her mother with those famed goddess powers that the demon race was so afraid of
And of course, within this season would be lots of brother bonding, and a large amount of time set in the demon realm where we get to explore the society and world, along more with the demon bros' past as individuals and together
Meliodas atones for both his betrayal of his brother, and that of his people who he probably should have been protecting
Plus maybe some gowther (bc I love him) and original demon lore bc that would be cool

omgggg hiiiiii it’s me again 🤭🤭🤭
can I request some headcanons of Nanashi please? just general and mundane things like: is he ticklish? is he a good/bad cook? etc. 🙏🙏🙏🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🩷🩷🩷🩷
AOWWODOEOEN I WAS WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO SEND THIS IN
Nanashi has a habit of shadowing people he cares about, and will only intervene if the person in question ends up in a dangerous situation. In the past due to his experience being a soldier on the front lines, on behalf of the goddess race-he lost too many people he cared about. He only has the best intentions however, and doesn't mean to be weird or shady about it, he doesn't do this a whole lot though.
Even if it had been so long that he lost his wings, Nanashi still somewhat can feel them there sometimes. It's like phantom sense, loss of limbs. On occasions of the phantom sense, he still gets reminded time again how he was punished for something he thought he had done wrong for, but he was injuring innocent people in that past of his. That was not honorable at all, and that in turn reminds him that he traded his wings for endangering innocents who done no wrong.
He treasures each and every animal dearly, on the off chance he will come across an injured animal: from whatever may seem to be the cause, Nanashi will help the injured animal and befriend the animal. The swordsman will travel with his animal companion until it reaches the end of it's life, when that happens, he is reminded of his race. He has a long life span, and will not be able to follow his companions into death. In spite of this, he takes his time in grieving them each and every time; as they were precious, Nanashi was granted the treasure of many good memories with them. At least, that is how he considers such a thing.
Nanashi is actually very good at cooking, not sous-level chef, but good enough that he can maintain meals for himself on occasion in spite of the fact he doesn't need to. He does it anyway as it gives him a sense of peace and normalcy as he will on occasion befriend people and cook for them.
There was a time in his earlier years of his existence that he had a problem with drinking himself to death, as it was the only coping mechanism to deal with the fact that reality will always somehow rear its ugly head. Reminding him that even if the world bore a beautiful event, there was always going to be something ugly. Nanashi has long since gotten over this problem, and prefers not to drink heavily, only having one drink or two on occasion.
An effect is gaining wisdom through pain, though he rarely ever shares his grievances in this way as Nanashi was highly reclusive and closed off. However Nanashi was not a stranger to conversing, and will indulge every once in a while despite the fact he prefers the pursuit of challenge after challenge. People have very interesting worldviews that he had come to admire, and took that on as part of his own.
Nanashi's middle spot directly on his neck is not so sensitive, but more so ticklish, you could definitely get a more direct reaction out of him by doing so. Only if he actually trusts someone enough to be that close however.
This man has a habit of re-visiting places in Britannia that he has told no one else about, he likes seeing how this particular environment is doing. Because he admires how much more beautiful such places look when un-touched by war and damnation, especially unmarked by bad memories. Nanashi sometimes will even sit there for quite some time, and mediate in peace. Perhaps just sit with his thoughts so that Nanashi can work through whatever may have happened to him leading up to visiting such a place.
Despite his otherworldly strength, there are few that had truly bested the swordsman, he admires and burns their name into memory. Nanashi actually had taken lessons from those that had bested them, and grew so much more in combat and throughout his view of the way he perceives life. He endured countless lessons and experiences, that had allowed him to become kinder.
Even if he does appear to be menacing as some had told him outright, Nanashi is very good with kids. The swordsman often watched their silly role-plays, and had been pulled into some himself, he can play certain roles very well. Children actually think of him as a very cool person, and love his demeanor. We all know that kids can be very honest and blunt compared to age-old adults, so Nanashi sometimes will actually hear very open things from some of them.
As he had befriended the kids, Nanashi has a habit of visiting their village. He prefers their honest and beaming nature over the unpredictable nature of fully-grown people, though he no doubt can handle himself in such situations, children are actually very refreshing to converse with - even if they do talk silly. He had made many good memories, and loved them as if they truly were his own biological children.
Nanashi has literally rarely ever cursed, but will do so if required. He is a very good-mannered man, and will always speak formal and even regularly. Though you will never once hear a curse word spill from his mouth, he thinks better of himself to speak more wisely instead of having a sailor mouth compared to some people.
He doesn't consider himself a good man, not even a saintly one. Nanashi thinks himself far from that, his self-esteem is pretty blown off, though he will never let this aspect of himself shine through. He had always handles himself, and carries himself alone through out the world.
Even if he is a swordsman, he is pretty good at singing. Nanashi had sung before in front of various people, but he'd grown to do so less and less as he thinks his talent for singing had grown quite stale. Nanashi likes hearing singing from other people though, and often sticks around until their songs end. He disappears afterwards, he can never be found.
Though he does travel the lands, Nanashi doesn't always pursue a challenge, and prefers to go about the day without combat if he is in such a mood.
