tdp season 6 shitpost doodles

i love it when characters are unfair, actually. i love it when they’re uncouth and cranky and hypocritical, i love it when they have cognitive dissonances, i love it when they make good and bad choices for the wrong reasons. i love when they’re short to anger and hard to understand. i love it when they’ve destroyed themselves for nothing but can’t even see either part of it yet. i love it when they’re messy and selfish and bad at communicating. i love it when they get convinced of their own ego and stuck in a feedback loop regarding their own warped paranoia. i love it when characters actively make their lives unknowingly harder for themselves. i love it when characters don’t know they’re in a story. i love it when characters are like real people

Spoilers for S6

- THE FACT THAT VIREN, DESPITE ALL ODDS, LIVED, ONLY TO DIE PROCLAMING HIS SERVITUDE TOWARDS HIS HOME

-THE FACT THAT RAYLA RECOGNIZED THE BEHEMOTH'S PAIN BECAUSE IT MIRRORED HER OWN

-THE FACT THAT RAYLA IS CALLUM'S DEEP TRUTH, AND FULLY ACCEPTING HER BACK INTO HIS HEART WAS THE CURE FOR THE DARKNESS IN HIS SOUL

- THE FACT THAT RAYLA HAD TO LET HER PARENTS GO BECAUSE SHE COULDN'T SEPARATE RUNAAN AND ETHARI, OR HER PARENTS FROM EACH OTHER

-THE FACT THAT RUNAAN WAS CORRUPTED NOT BECAUSE OF DARK MAGIC, BUT BECAUSE OF HIS OWN GUILT AND REGRET

-THE FACT THAT RUNAAN, THE MAN NOT AFRAID OF DEATH, JOYOUSLY AND INCREDULOUSLY EXCLAIMS "I... I'm alive!"

-THE FACT THAT EVEN THOUGH TERRY STUCK BY CLAUDIA AND WANTED THE BEST FOR HER, SHE STILL CHOSE AARAVOS AND HIS BULLSHIT OVER HIM

How far can a person bend before they break and how long can the broken be wielded before they turn double edged?

This season was so devastatingly beautiful, but ironically, the metaphorical crown wouldn't be heavy if the gemstones didn't dig into the head of the wearer.

Sometimes, the line between mercy and cruelty can be thin.

The reason WHY Claudia resonates so deeply with Aaravos' story is because it's a mirror that she finds herself in. She IS the daughter in the story but not the one who pays the price. No, that was paid by her father... her father, who was brave enough to do what Aaravos couldn't. What's heartbreaking is that she doesn't even realize what she's discarding is the same thing Viren chose to embrace in death; his humanity.

One father who chose to bear the brunt, and another who chose to sacrifice his child.

I absolutely loved the parallel between Callum and Rayla having a do-over of their reunion, getting what could've been, but Viren refusing to reveal the truth to Soren, knowing one is a blessing and the other, a curse. Forever losing the opportunity to know what could've been.

The loss portrayed was so unsettling...

To even the loss we felt as the audience, seeing what made Viren who he was... his own son, to seeing what he made himself and the loss of what could've been and how his death proved the one thing we didn't want him to show... him having a human heart. And that's what this show did magnificently... it made this audience root for people against our will.

From the unfinished story of the lovers forever frozen in time to the mournful ballad rayla sang to console the stormbringer.

The only thing left to see is how these weapons charecters are to be utilized.

How callum will embrace his darkness and if Rayla will be able to kill him if need be. Or if promises will not be the only things to be broken next time.

I like how they have things to remember their fathers by

Ezran has Harrow’s sword (crafted into his crown)

Callum has Damien’s scarf

Rayla has Ethari’s crafted swords, and her braid that is like Lain’s

Claudia has Viren’s staff

And Soren has Viren induced trauma

I think something that's so interesting about The Dragon Prince is that none of the characters in the show are ever out-of-character

Like even in my favorite pieces of media with my favorite characters, I can easily admit there are plenty of moments where they are out-of-character to further the plot, to make a joke, to have meta commentary, etc, but that never seems to happen in TDP

Callum always acts like Callum, Rayla is always Rayla, Ezran is always Ezran, Viren is always Viren, Claudia is always Claudia; no matter how vile the actions might be, even though we're all screaming at the TV for them not to do it, we all know it makes sense for them to do it, and they know that it's awful as well, but they have no other choice

And it's like. They're all so complex. There are so many characters in The Dragon Prince yet they all act differently. They are all infinitely complex with their own drive and motivations, even if they only show up for two seconds. They're all so human

Aaron Ehasz and all other writers on the TDP team have mastered the art of characters. No one is perfectly good, no one is perfectly bad, they all make complicated choices that make sense for them in their respective journeys all without sacrificing the integrity of the story. It absolutely spectacular

In case you couldn't tell, I love TDP (and I need season 7 right now)

[raayllum]

I'm ready to cast the spell with love.
