#Anis and Loren

[saaliyah]

⋆｡°✩ Loren and Anis ⋆｡°✩

My current guys on rotation - My partner and I made them for a baldurs gate themed epistolary and now they have take me over.

Anis (Portrait on the right) is the Tav - He’s a bastard of some haughty high elf and got thrown into the military to save face when he was young and dumb - but after half his troop got killed, the survivors got drunk and swore they would avenge them. He’s been left as an Oath of Vengeance paladin with this stupid mistake chasing him ever since.

Loren(Portrait to the left) is Anis’ partner who was not kidnapped on the nautiloid, but got left behind behind in Baldur’s Gate. They work at Sword Coast Couriers and the pigeons are so devout to them. They have an insatiable thirst for knowledge, especially arcane, but they’ve had too many other responsibilities to ever get to follow through. When Anis was taken, they worked out a search spell to find him and set up a letter system with one of the pidgeys.

These two have been in a loving but very stagnant relationship until the events of BG3 - their love is great and worthy of epics, but it takes being tested to get it there! While they write letters back and forth to each other, Anis tries to shield Loren from the grisly realities to keep them from worrying, while Loren can tell more is going on - It finally breaks when it’s revealed that they’ll be heading to the Shadowlands - Loren can’t stay away any longer.

Anyways, I love them, it’s been so fun to learn about them ahh!!!

(Psss I do portrait commissions if you have ocs you can’t stop thinking about)

What I love most about Circular Gallifreyan is how utterly impractical it would be to use in everyday writing. There's a reason all these writing systems we have on Earth tend to stick to going in straight lines

Would really love to hear about the angsty marcotobias fic if you're interested in sharing. 👀

Oh gosh, I feel like I'd have to actually write it for it to make sense because like 80% of it is subtext, but here's some rambling in that general direction.

I'm chiefly interested in the ways in which Marco & Tobias are actually incredibly similar -- their senses of humor, their attractions, their complete direspect for authority, and most importantly how they both lowkey hate themselves but insist on survival anyway, largely out of spite -- but how they treat their similarity as, like, a cautionary tale rather than the basis for a healthy connection that it could be.

Like, Tobias disappearing into the woods and giving up on everybody is exactly the kind of behavior that Marco finds incredibly triggering, having lived through it with his dad. Marco would never walk away from his remaining loved ones like that, especially in the post-war world where he's charged himself with being the public face of the Animorphs because somebody has to. But there is absolutely a part of him that wants to give up and disappear; ya boi is tired.

Meanwhile, I think Tobias sees Marco's devotion to Jake and refusal to abandon him even after how Rachel died (which Tobias blames Jake for) as a version of the hero worship complex Tobias used to have about Jake -- like, I think Tobias sees Marco as being too devoted to Jake to see "the truth" about him, and he pities that in Marco. But at the same time, Tobias envies Marco's close personal connections, and I think on some level he knows that the only way to get to that place would be to work through his anger at Jake to get to his anger at Rachel, and he just can't bring himself to do that. It's easier to stay mad.

And then there's the question of Rachel herself, whom they were both deeply invested in trying to keep alive at the end of the war. Like, we see this explicitly from Tobias, with his "just be Rachel" and constant emotional check-ins with her, but I don't think Marco gets enough credit for his active role in keeping her literally alive. Dude bodily removed her from battles, at risk to his own life, and I just refuse to believe that's not something Marco & Tobias talked about, given how much time they spent together in Ax's scoop during that period of time between Marco's fake death & the move to the valley. Rachel is both a mutual love and a mutual failure for them (and that level of mutual devotion to a third person gives my polyamorous ass A Lot of Feelings).

Basically I think there's a lot of respect and love between Tobias and Marco, but they can't get to it because it would require each of them to deal with Rachel-related guilt and confront parts of themselves that they don't want to acknowledge.

...so I want to get them high on Marco's fancy penthouse balcony and make them kiss about it

KYRIE: Want to know your future? TAYUIN: Is it starving to death in the frozen tundra because I accidentally picked the most useless partner? KYRIE: Shut up. Give me your hand. TAYUIN: Hey! KYRIE: Mm, yeah, all doom and gloom. You end up alone with fifteen snoufleurs. TAYUIN: You’re awful and I hate everything about you. KYRIE: laughs Relax. It’s not all bad. TAYUIN: …What do you see, then? KYRIE: Which part do you want to know? TAYUIN: I don’t know… Do I win? KYRIE: It doesn’t work like that. TAYUIN: Well, how does it work then! KYRIE: Stop moving. I see two paths. One paved in grey, and the other, red. Both paths are dark. One damp— uncomfortable— like the first thaw of spring, when all the world is laden with melted frost. The other path is bitter cold; lined with ice and filled with echoes. So much pain… TAYUIN: Let go! KYRIE: Tay— TAYUIN: If you’re just going to tell me awful things, I’d rather not hear them. I was happier with the snoufleurs. KYRIE: Not all pain is bad. Some challenges are hard, but they help us grow. TAYUIN: Yeah, well maybe it’s not worth it. There’s a point where enough is enough. KYRIE: Then why do you do the things you do? TAYUIN: It doesn’t hurt me. It hurts other people. KYRIE: You want to hurt them? TAYUIN I have to do it. KYRIE: You have to treat others as disposable? As tools?   TAYUIN: Better them than… than me, again. KYRIE: There are better ways to cope, Tayuin. TAYUIN: This is the one that works for me.

"The new Buffy the Vampire Slayer audio drama series will recast some original show roles, according to the project's co-writer and director." - Quote from Screen Rant

You know... as sad as this is (and as weird as it will be to hear new voices for some of the characters [though I'm guessing that maybe they found sound-alikes for the people they're recasting?]), I think I prefer this to leaving out these characters completely: like some Buffyverse stuff has been doing lately.

And, I mean, I'm sure they approached the missing original actors to be a part of the project, of course. They assumedly chose not to be in it.

So, yeah: right now, at least, I'm really thinking this was the best option, all things considered.

saw LOTR musical again tonight. assumed i would cry less because i've seen it once before. instead cried much, much more.
