#He is so special to me

[toaster-fire-art]

Hi! I got supper busy! and by busy I mean injured.

I'm fine but hey happy trans visiblity day!

totally unrelated but I have just been laying around distracting myself so now I have decided to once again draw a cast line up. All the martial gods for now, since I got to tweaking up the QYZ and YY one I'd already done and redoing my awfully huge poster thing I started like 4 years ago now. Doing it this way is more fulfilling to me, maybe one day I'll return to it but not now.

I was reading through parts of Fire & Blood again when I stumbled upon this very interesting paragraph at the end of the dance, on the page Aegon's death is talked of:

I don't know how I hadn't realized this, but Aegon asked to be taken to the sept at the end of his life! Something that seemed to be out of character for this occasion, as hinted at in the text. This was so interesting to me— why did he decide to go there? Did he truly seek repentance as Septon Eustace suggests? He could have, but that's too easy of an answer.

I couldn't help but draw parallels between this and s1 e09 of the show. Specifically, I thought of the scene in the sept where they find him, hidden away under the very altar his mother used to pray at so often.

Of course, he didn't go there by his own will— Mysaria's henchmen were the ones to hide him there. But this is a work of fiction we are talking about, of course his presence in the sept still carries narrative weight. He immediately asks to be brought to his mother, did he feel close to her under those candles? Was he thinking of her? How often did she drag him to that very same altar as a child? How often has he knelt there, silently watching his mother pray?

There is also a very intriguing deleted scene from the episode (thank you @darksvster for providing the transcripts); Cole tells Alicent where they found Aegon, she is surprised— he had always hated going to the sept.

And then he admits it. He was afraid. This is Aegon at his most vulnerable and honest— explaining his presence in the sept simply by saying he was afraid. Does he see the sept as a place of comfort, as his mother does? Did he try to feel close to her, or to something else?

This is what it is about at the end of his life, it's not about seeking forgiveness for his sins— no, it's about comfort for him. Other passages on the page illustrate this very well.

"A cold wind was blowing [...] the king closed the curtains against the chill." I see this as yet another demonstration of Aegon seeking immediate physical comfort. He didn't get much comfort as a child— or as an adult, really. The Red Keep was a cold and hard place, not really made to nurture anybody. He makes do with what he has.

The flagon of Arbor Red in his litter, Aegon's favorite wine, underscores his need for familiar comforts even more. Wine acts as a symbol of his indulgences, indulgences that have followed him his entire life. A comfort he could never let go of— relying on the escape it provided, relying on it when he was happy, or sad, or angry.

However, this comfort would also be his ultimate undoing. It's kind of poetic, really. He survived dragonfire, he survived the dance, he survived his dragon and his sons. He didn't survive his wine.

Aegon's final moments were apparently spent in a relative tranquility, (as much tranquility you can have in his state, I suppose) closed off from the world in his litter, with his favorite wine by his side. Arbor Red, the same color as the blood on his lips.

i would 100% love to read your thoughts on Kingskin x reader headcannons

Thank you for asking as my brain has been cooking over this for AGES.

OKAY.

About the Reader:

Kingskin is canonically bisexual. And also this dude is fucking massive, so I don't think that he is attracted by physicality?? I think he is attracted to VIBES.

In my heart he likes someone with some backbone. People just bend to him easily so a bit of push back is v hot to him.

Definitely part of the underground, he has canon connections to people who have worked in his club and has not, so the reader just has to have a connection to the underground, not necessarily his part of it.

I do think he doesn't get out much so likely, they met in his club. Home turf advantage.

Kingskin in a Relationship.

In my heart he is a gift giver. Kingskin is the King of his club so it makes a ton of sense that he uses that to make his current partner feel like royalty.

He is overtly confident in himself, his desires, and his ability. I think he likes to show off his current lover, lots of physical contact though it is usually only like one handed. (Think about leading with a hand on the back, holding a shoulder)

I think he has had few long relationships, often having a flavor of the week. When he breaks that usual goal, it is big news around his crew and the scene as a whole. (Both characters we met as his exs were longer picks imo)

I would not say that Kingskin is overtly flirtly, rather he is exceptionally blunt. He also has used the concept that most people see him as incapable of tenderness to really pull at his lover. A gentle hand on the cheek, running a hand along your back, ect.

His partner is the only one allowed to call him King. Very few have ever learned his real name and he doesn't react to most nicknames. (This is why we got the "use my full name")

Most of his long term partners have ended because they made him realize that he was no longer strictly "casual" with him. It makes him panic cut off.

He will not accept anyone saying anything poor about his lover, he has killed in front of a lover because of that very situation.

If They Made It Official

This is a no man's land to Kingskin. He has not had a long term open relationship since he took over his spot of the underground.

He becomes hyper protective and possessive, lots of separation anxiety because he knows he has many enemies (and you do too probably).

He just melts into gentle touches from his lover. He rarely allows physical contact to come to him rather than him give it. But he finally works up to feeling safe enough to do so.

Makes them a themed drink lol.

Gift giving gets even worse.

Hearing his actual name from his lover's mouth is an Experience and it melts him immediately.

Big teddy bear energy when he actually allows himself to risk loving again.

This is at least the starter set for him lol. I have so many COOKING. Jennifer Drips?? Vic Ethanol?? I'm cooking. Let me know if you have any specifics you want to see, or more thoughts about this MAN.
