[treviso-nights]

everyone say thank you to brianne battye who wrote for both cullen rutherford and neve gallus, two people who would rather fall on a sword than develop crushes but ultimately can't resist the indecipherable yearning of their huge, disgustingly soft hearts

Fun fact: The sign "Battye & Palm" is a Discworld Easter Egg - in the novel Night Watch, Rosemary Palm is a seamstress and Sandra Battye is a real seamstress (truly working with needle :D).They are flatmates. They deal with ppl depending on which seamstress is being looked for :).

Neve's "the world's not fair on a good day," hits hard. It's so good because Neve feels so soft and vulnerable in this moment. I rewatched this scene recently, and it is so good as a scene that acknowledges Rook's growing feelings for her.

On one layer, there's the captured wisp, captured Rook parallel. I love this part of the scene because she immediately lets the wisp go. Why??? Because it's futile. Just like her trying to hold onto things she can't control. Her letting go of the wisp, is her letting go of her desire to keep things to herself. She's finally ready to let a little chaos into her life by being honest with Rook.

But what's more interesting to me is that she, at every turn, gives Rook the chance to leave. She doesn't want a captured Rook. She can't even bear to keep a mischievous wisp trapped for her sake. That's why it's so good when Rook, at every turn, answers her with a reaffirmation of their commitment to her.

Neve's vulnerability is also so heartfelt in this scene. When she closes her eyes and braces herself for what she's about to say—“What can we ask for?”—it feels like she’s asking for Rook to steady her. To keep her rooted when she feels like she’s being swept away by the storm of her own emotions: her frustration, her loss through Brom, her desire to keep Rook safe, her worry for those who’ve gone missing, and being confronted by her own inadequacies.

I know Rook can answer differently, but I still love the polite/blue!Rook response because it’s the most vulnerable to me. (Granted, different voice actors may have done the inflection here differently, but damn does Bryony Corrigan deliver. Holy hell.)

“Good things happen, Neve.” The way Rook speaks her name like they’re afraid to break this moment, this closeness that Neve allows. Woof.

That’s when my Rook knew there could be no one else.

Oh Sylvia Feketekuty wrote the short story in nevarra and luck in the garden!!! I love luck in the garden, in case Dorian appears I hope she's his writer because she really had his tone perfectly

Going absolutely insane for this. The one time Iori wants honesty, and she herself wants to be honest, she gets rejected. And then she's gone!
