It always feels like Klaus-influenced Gil is looking directly at the reader

Creepy

Gil Galad: I trust the Feanorians to act in Elrond’s best interest. Not mine, or Lindon’s, or even Arda’s as a whole - but definitely Elrond’s.

Cannot WAIT for Klaus to get back and find out that not only did the overlay not stop Gil from dating Agatha, it also did not stop him from dating Tarvek Sturmvurous.

i am so obsessed with how like. taken as read the ot3 are at this point. like on the one hand it feels like they've been building up to this for ages but on the other hand it kind of feels like i blinked and we skipped right past some Major Turning Point where everything got spelled out and we're just already in firmly Established Relationship-land. obviously tarvek is too well-protected for anyone to assassinate openly, look how angry his boyfriend and girlfriend are at the idea of anyone threatening him. at this point i'm half-convinced agatha's just going to refer to her boyfriends in passing to someone else and no one's even going to comment on it until van finds out twenty pages later and immediately starts making everyone pay up

Every so often I remember the Machine for Picking Up Girls, and then it's a good day.

This is possibly my favorite joke in all of Girl Genius. Perfection. There's competition, but this one is high on the list.

I'm so happy for Gil. This kidnapping is probably one of the nicer afternoons he's had in a while.

Look at him, he's in his element! Out on the town, wearing an open collared shirt and smoking a cigar! He's gotten to fight a bunch people, show off his medical skills, and talk about how cool his girlfriend is with his new friend who's required to either hold his hand or climb all over him like a rhesus monkey at all times.

ok ok ok listen listen I know I KNOW we’re all used to it by now—I know they’ve been vibing for a good bit now—but I still have to take a moment to look at these two dumbasses, and just acknowledge how much and how incredibly their dynamic has evolved.

Look at Tarvek’s expression. Fucking Look at him. He’s being a shit and he KNOWS it.

The fact that he can lean into Gil’s comments about his family and quip back with so much ease is just. It’s suddenly hitting me for some reason, because there was absolutely a time where a comment like that would have made Tarvek bristle, and jump to just as quickly point out flaws in the wulfenbach empire… but now? Now he and Gil are so at ease with each other that comments like that aren’t personal, and any threats between them hold zero weight. Now he can fully indulge in the impish, smug delight of still being a nuisance to the empire without worrying about setting Gil off. He’s able to join everyone else in taking the piss out of his family, and comfortable enough around Gil to know that, even coming from the weasels den, they’re friends enough that Gil wouldn’t ever get rid of him. (And further, went through ridiculous ordeals to rescue him. Twice.)

But point is, he can be as annoying as he wants. Even Gil’s expression here is more put upon and “what else did I expect” than anything close to real anger, and I just!! Them!! They’re joking and teasing and there’s no stakes and no tension whatsoever, (the only tension that’s feasibly left between them is the question of “in the end, who’s actually gonna rule next” and possibly Agatha. But even then, they’ve both admitted separately that they would step aside for the other to make her happy. So.)

grrrgh I just. I love them. My stupid genius boys. Look look look at how far they’ve come.

Gil really does calm down when Tarvek enters the room like;

He is so thrilled!

Look at him he's so happy. He's so exhausted but Tarvek's presence relaxes him so much.

It's okay Wooster, Agatha can handle both of them. ;)

This is especially funny in light of this post.

KLAUS YOU NEED TO WORK ON YOUR COMMUNICATION SKILLS.

[sketchy-kat]

8-year-old Gil and Tarvek (and also Zoing) from my Girl Genius AU in which they do not have the friendship break-up (and subsequently other things happen).

In this universe they make Zoing together and get to be precocious young Sparks together. They are best friends.

Anyway I call it the GilTarvek no divorce AU.
