check out the first instalment. x

He can’t stop obsessing over you,

There you are, laughing away with your friends, he’s hiding behind his locker, yet his eyes are focused on you, you are majestic to look at.

Ezekiel is lost in you, he doesn’t understand what is so funny but the way you laugh, your teeth on display, your eye’s crinkled, you make his heartbeat rise.

Even just the sight of you makes him feel so special, for him it’s just you and him, you don’t laugh like that around him though,

It’s merely a fantasy of his that will never come true.

This laugh of yours is almost angelic, he can hear it, but he loves it more when you laugh in a mocking way, especially when he’s the target of it.

Only with him.

He feels his toes curl at the thought, his cheeks heat up, you’re so cruel but only with him.

He loves you for that, because it makes him feel so special, he’s your special boy, Ezekiel inhales a deep breath to contain his composure.

You make him so weak. He loves the feeling.

you’ve finally forgiven him too, even if it was hard to get you to, Ezekiel was so glad that he could be near you again,

Oh he loved to be near you.

He had fucked you so hard after all, the burns of your nails was still fresh, but it wasn’t enough to sustain his desires.

He wished that you would push him in one of the bathrooms and fuck him mercilessly.

Oh, he wanted you so bad.

“Ezekiel?” A voice calls out and the man shake out of his mind, Ezekiel almost curses as he turns his back at you to see who interrupted his day dreaming,

His smile falters.

“Whatever the fuck are YOU doing here?” He grabs her hand and drags her to the empty ground with him, his steps are fast, the woman doesn’t struggle at all.

She only follows behind him.

“What do you mean, Kiel?? This is a college. I’m surprised to see you here.” He halts and a familiar face stands in front of him.

“Why? I study here.” He rolls his eyes at her, all of his excitement was ruined thanks to his ex girlfriend.

“Maya….. fuck off.” He tells her off but the woman smiles, Ezekiel feels like throwing up. It’s too much, he’d rather be inside the halls, staring at you and day dreaming.

“Don’t be so mean, Kiel…. We’ll be seeing each other often now… and who was the girl you were hawking at huh?”

He clicks his tongue. “We broke up, get over it. And don’t you dare talk about her. None of your business!” He almost frowns as he leans close to her,

She makes him feel sick.

“I’ll find out eventually,” Maya, his ex replies, a smirk on her lips as she crosses her arms around her chest. “I missed you, babe.” She whispers.

Ezekiel rolls his eyes at her and pushes her away, “I have to leave.” He looks around and feels relieved for the first time in his at the bell ringing.

But his relief dies down quickly when he spots you looking visibly pissed, leaning against the pillar of the building,

Your cold eyes set on him.

He gulps.

He was fucked.

More filipino tf 141 reader hcs

Yes-- some more HCs because my little Filo heart wants more. Teensy tiny bit of religious themes and a dick joke ahead

If the others call you by your real name– you go by your middle name/mother’s maiden name: Bonifacio. The reason why is that your surname is Batungbakal– and your friend made a dick joke out of it when you were in elementary and you didn’t want to be stuck with that nickname BSHJKSSNMS

The whole Task Force + Los Vaqueros was initially so confused when you pointed at things with your lips. Like– did you want a kiss? Did your mouth hurt?? Gaz was a little embarrassed and flushed about this because he’s a little bean i love him sm gaz my beloved ;^; Soap made a joke about kissing you and you’re just– “NO– i was pointing at the tarmac over there–”

You help Ghost stitch up and fix his masks. He still doesn’t take it off around you, he just wears the extra ones, but allowing you to help mend his masks is a huge and intimate action in itself. And in turn, he helps you make your own mask– like the ones in Red Team 141. The mask is inspired by your callsign, Aswang, with large pointy teeth and a painted tongue. You scared the shit out of the rest of the team the first time you wore it

If you’re sent out on a mission you, Alejandro, and Rodolfo say a little prayer. Sometimes you or one of the two hold onto a rosary as you do so. If you’re not particularly religious– it's just something you do out of habit, especially since growing up, your lola (grandma) made you pray the rosary with her. A safety blanket and a reminder of home if you will. 

Being invited to a Carne Asada by the Los Vaqueros. Many of the tios and tias as well as other family members talk to you in Spanish, thinking that you’re an old friend who grew up in Las Almas. You’re not super fluent in it but you know enough to respond– albeit slowly. Alejandro or Rudy have to explain that you’re Filipino. You enjoy it nonetheless! The spicy food may take some getting used to but it makes you feel happy. 

Giving TF 141 + Los Vaqueros Filipino nicknames: Soap? It’s either Sabon or Jon-Jon– no exceptions. JM (John MacTavish) if you feel more playful. You still call Gaz by Gaz– but you don’t call him Kyle. You call him Kiel. You’re too scared to call Ghost by a Filipino nickname cos you’re not sure if you’re gonna get dropkicked to the ground or survive the whole ordeal. But if you did– its a special nickname: Simoun (named after the El Fili character cos he’s just as ruthless and mysterious).  Alejandro is Andoy or Anding. There’s no real reason behind it– it’s just how Filipino nicknames work. Rudy is actually similar to the Filipino nickname for Rodolfo. But instead of Rudy its Roddy. Sometimes you call him Dolphy after the Filipino comedian with the same name.  Price remains as Itay or ‘Tay, you care for him that much. But for the Price simps out there, you call him Mahal. It’s a play on words which means “love” but also means “expensive”

My Masterlist for more chapters Here is the Spotify Playlist Still angsty, butttttt.... you'll see. THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR READING! LOVE YOU ALL!!!

I don't even have my own attention You say, "Please don't ever change" But you don't like me the way I am Kento just kept swimming, he couldn't take it. The pain in his chest felt like it could kill him. You didn't love him.... What did he do to make you not love him? He thought you did.... Maybe it was the sea witch. Maybe he lied to him. The world tried to burn all the mercy outta me But you know I wouldn't let it She said, "I love you 'til I don't" I am just playin' house, no idea what I'm doin' now He would confront the sea witch. He would do it, and he would get back to you. To the woman he loves. And he would get back to the sun he learned to love. Sun, sun, sun Sun, sun, sun (I-I'm stuck in...) Sun, sun, sun Sun, sun ~~~ You sat on on the shoreline, staring out into the vast blue waters. He's.... gone. Just like that. But why? I was, I was, I was, I was Gonna say something that would solve all our problems Your face was devoid of emotion, except for the tears streaking your face as you looked across the plane of blue. You eventually stumbled to your feet and walked back to your home. Don't you, don't you, don't you know There's nothing more cruel than to be loved by everybody As you stepped in, the tears started again, seeing the decorations you'd set up just for him. For the man that was gone now. Returned to the sea. If I can get my shit together, I'm gonna run away and never see Any of you again, never see any of you again I hope the roof flies off and we get blown out into space I always make such expensive mistakes You let out a pained moan, the loss hitting you hard before you inevitably stumbled back to your locked cabinet, to find your hidden bottle of bourbon and popped it open before drinking it in gulps. I hate all my friends, I miss the days when I pretended I hate all my friends, I miss the days when I pretended with you I miss the days when I pretended with you, with you The liquid slid down your throat like a liquid fire as your tears were hot down your cheeks, you began to choke, and sobbed more. If we hadn't done this thing I think I'd be a medicine man So I could get high on our own Supply whenever I can The pill bottle pushed back to the very back of the cabinet made you grab it and take a handful. It hurt. Everything hurt. And Kento wasn't here to hug and kiss it all better. I hope the roof flies off and we get blown out into space I always make such expensive mistakes ~~~ Kento burst into the sea witches abode, the buff man whipping his head to see who had slammed open his door. A smirk fell across his scarred lips as he saw Kento. "Seems like someone's deal didn't quite work out, now did it? She didn't love you, did she pretty boy?" He mocks. Kento swims fast at him, his teeth clenched as he draws a fist back, just for Toji to catch it. "Easy there, easy." he spoke to Kento, his tone still mocking. Kento was about to lose his shit before a small merchild came between the two, his features close to that of the sea-witches, but his hair was longer and his eyes were colder. The son of a sea-witch. Most people made the assumption that children where weaker than adults, but the opposite could be said for people like sea-witches. They were like snakes, an adult knows how much venom to release, however a baby snake is far more deadly, without it's ability to gauge its venom amount. The same could be said about magic in this case. The merchild raises his head to Kento and murmurs "I'll help you, but only to make this fucker mad.", he gestures to his father.

DA Review Series: Vows & Vengeance

<<< Previous Review: The Missing

Here we are. The final review. The last little crumb of DA content I had to consume in my year-long journey to read, watch, play, and listen to all things Dragon Age before Veilguard's release.

For awhile there I didn't think I'd be able to to get it all done, but here we are with two weeks to spare. I don't know how I'm going to survive these next two weeks with no Dragon Age media, but I'm thinking of it as a sort of cleanse. A break to prepare mind, body, and spirit for what comes next...

Veilguard.

Title: Vows & Vengeance Writer(s): Will Melton and Jeremy Novik Publication Year: 2024 In-World Year: 9:45+ Dragon Verdict: I had a lot of fun with this series, despite its at times cringe-worthy writing and the occasional lore discrepancy. Is it a wellspring of lore and info? Not so much. But as an introduction to Veilguard's companions and key characters I think it's quite successful. But, successful doesn't equal necessary so you do you, boo.

Vows & Vengeance follows thief Nadia Carcosa as she tries to save her lover Elio from the Fade. He's stuck there thanks to a certain Dread Wolf and the artifact he surreptitiously hired her to steal — the Eye of Kethisca.

After Solas's ritual goes wrong (this dude is a broken record!) Nadia meets Drayden Kiel, a scholar and historian with a particular interest in the Fade. Their hunt for the Dread Wolf and Elio takes them through much of Northern Thedas, and each episode introduces one of the seven companions in Veilguard.

I found all of the companions incredibly endearing and wonderful. Harding is so sweet and kind, but also a bamf. Davrin is strong and noble, but also extremely charming. Taash is an absolute badass and I can't wait to see more of her dynamic in the group. And of course, Neve is a stunner and not just for her fashion sense.

Bellara's episode was an absolute delight — as a longtime fan of the Dalish, hearing one of the People stand up and speak out against their colonizers was very powerful.

Obviously I LOVED the Lucanis episode, even if Antivan nobility having British accents was buckwild. What we heard from Lucanis told us so much about his character and I can't WAIT to get to know him better, if you know what I mean ;) .

Emmrich and Manfred were such a joy to meet. Their dynamic is so sweet and the kindness just radiates from Emmrich. I can't wait to play rock paper scissors with my little bone buddy.

It was almost unfair, honestly, because the companions were so loveable and Nadia... Wasn't. I really struggled with her, for a lot of the same reasons I struggled with Katara in ATLA. But Nadia doesn't have the excuse of being a child.

Nadia came across as very impatient, oftentimes mean, and incredibly short-sighted. She oscillates between being a know-it-all and being utterly uninterested in understanding what's happening around her. I wasn't really rooting for her, sadly. She was just the vehicle this podcast used to introduce us to these other characters.

I must add here that I absolutely loved Drayden and would be more than happy to meet them in Veilguard or other Dragon Age media in the future. But I am glad Nadia's "retired".

I also feel really bad for Elio. I don't feel like Nadia really processed the fact that he died and that it was her fault (and also Solas's). Or at least, we didn't get to hear her process that. And so her eulogy/vow at the end rang a bit hollow for me. Her emotion and her grasp at closure didn't feel earned.

But! I do want to say that shoving all these characters into eight 45-minute episodes had to have been an INCREDIBLE challenge. And, when compared to other Dragon Age tie-in media, this one is definitely not bad. I know I'm glad I listened, and that my Thursday morning drive has been the highlight of my week for the last eight weeks.

But now it's over. Just like this review series is over. The only thing left to do is sit back and countdown the days until we finally return to Thedas!

TWO WEEKS LEFT, Y'ALL!!!!!!!

I love the Story Thieves books so much you guys literally don't get it

This is basically little me going thru the books for the first time:

Book 1: Imma be honest, barely remember it and it is the one I reread the least. But it had such a huge impact on me.Being able to go in and out of my favourite books??? Why wasn't I half fictional too??? WHO IS THIS NOBODY GUY??! I wanna be Kiel Gnomenfoot too, he seems to have a cool life, no fair!!! I want to meet Charm. I need Charm. Wait- no, no way, Owen isn't going to really- HE'S ACTUALLY GIVING UP HIS HEART WHAT@??@

And sometimes, to this day still, I would see a random book on display at a bookstore and go "Wait a fuck damn minute- THIS WAS IN THE STORY THIEVES WASNT IT???"

(^this is why I started reading Percy Jackson btw)

The Stolen Chapters: I LITERALLY GOT CHILLS SEEING THE STOLEN CHAPTERS. The library is on fire?!? Bethany is drowning??! The books are canonically canon?? WHO THE FUCK DOES DOYLE THINK HE IS??? OMG MOIRA CAN WE BE BESTIES??? ....FOWEN IS FUCKING WHAT NOW?? NOBODY IS THE AUTHOR?!?!?

Secret Origins: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA- oooo cool art!! AAAAAAAAAAAA-

Pick The Plot: HUH?!? I AM- NOT REAL?!? WHAT'S GOING ON? WHERE IS BETHANY?!? PUNCH YOURSELF IN THE FACE OWEN!!! DO IT!!

Worlds Apart: *literally sobbing*

Hello, I have a question about WMMAP, I heard there is a side story of Ezekiel moving on from Athy? Is that true? And may I have a spoiler about it if there is.

Thanks so much, Have a great day!

Hi <3

In the novel, there is 5 side-stories : one about Athy’s 18th birthday (focused on Lucathy), one about Athy and Lucas travelling to the world of Lovely Princess (mainly Lucathy too though there is some implied LP!Athykiel), one about Lucas’ past, one about Claude, and the last about LP!Lucas crossing dimensions!

In none of these is there anything that indicates that Kiel moves on from Athy… Because that happens in the main story!

At the end of the novel, Ezekiel realises that he had been unfair to Jennette (they had several fights by that point), who is in an hour of need.

So he decides to leave for the country-side with her until she gets better, instead of staying in the capital (with Athy, who pretty much rejected him several times by now).

Their last conversation goes like this, pretty much: Athy tells him to go “where he belongs”, and that Jennette is the one who needs him.

Ezekiel agrees, and adds that Athanasia is a strong person (and thus doesn’t need his presence). Athy points out there seems to be bitterness in his eyes, but that he seems relieved as well.

I hope I was able to help, have a great day too <3

Meet My Rook!

I don't have any fandom friends to recruit me, so I'ma tag myself in here because I wanna play tooooo. At the same time, I'm too shy to tag anyone else, so if you want to play along as well, let's just pretend I tagged you. If we're mutuals, I've actually already tagged you in my heart, but again am very shy.

picrew links

Name: Beren "Rook" Laidir Nickname/Alias: Rook! Pronouns: he/him Lineage: Dwarf surfacer Faction: Lords of Fortune Class: Rogue (Duelist, possibly Saboteur specialization) Potential Romance: Davrin (ain't no potential, baby. the wedding is on). I had thought Lucanis for a minute but on further consideration, Rook is very shallow, and Davrin is gorgeous. Rook is also bull-headed and determined, so I don't see him giving up once he sets his sights on the Warden, which will be immediately. I'm so so sorry, Drayden Kiel, for taking your man. Rook isn't tho. He got there first and he won, damnit! Potential Friendships: Lace Harding & Varric Tethras (buddies pre-DAV, because dwarf rogues stick together). Friendly with all the Veilguard members because he's just that type of guy. Potential Rivalries: Lucanis (but in a fun, light-hearted kind of Legolas/Gimli rivalry-friendship way, at least from Rook's pov, and yes he will try to count off their kills. he will lose because he's very enthusiastic and hard working but uhhh... we'll say *slightly* less skilled as a rogue), Taash (also more competitive than anything. look, he's very competitive but very friendly. he's also delusional and will challenge her to shots competitions and try to drink the Qunari giant under the table. he will fail, vomitously) Tattoos/Scars: Dwarven-style facial tattoos (i need to look up the tattoo options and decide I guess, but I am thinking something in heavy black around the eyes, loud and impossible to ignore, give my boy some juggalo vibes) Notable Appearance Details: Bright flaming ass red hair. Never wears a full shirt, so his top surgery scars are proudly displayed as much as possible. Plenty of other scars, which he's just as proud of, and will readily tell the stories of how he got them. Probably other body tattoos, but I gotta check out the cc options. Short even for a dwarf, which is an advantage for a rogue, thank you very much. He's got no strike zone, damnit, and yes, he will run between your legs. Anything Else You’d Like To Share: See here and here. Chaos incarnate, which feels fitting for a Rook, based on what we've seen. He has a green & yellow budgie (look the picrew had limited options and cockatiel was the closest I could do) named Lady of the Skies - technically it's a boy bird, but who the hell knows how to sex a goddamn parakeet? He found out after the fact, and Lady also being trans seemed fitting, actually. Fuck AGAB, 'tis but a mere suggestion. I never would've guessed I'd end up playing a dwarf LoF first (initially planned for elf Veil Jumper like the elf-nerd I am), but he has burrowed his way into my heart and I love this little gremlin dearly. Also, he is a disaster and it is very in-character for him to make poor decisions, so I think he fits well for a starter Rook on my first playthrough.

King’s love for Lispen (analysis)

Nothing proves to me how much the Demon King loves Lispen like this scene does

You might be thinking, “but wait, isn’t this the part where he gets so angry he PUNISHES Lispen?” 

Why yes, random stranger on the internet, it is. 

In fact, it is one of the few times when he’s so mad we can clearly see the anger on his face.

The only other time we’ve seen him with this expression was way back in the demon world in the flashback

But instead of doing THIS (killing)

He only did THIS (capturing)

Treachery always has the highest form of punishment in any society and institution. In historical times, betraying a ruler or high authority usually entailed torture, execution and crucifixion (see also: What the Tower did with Kiel).

But instead of any of that, all the Demon King did was simply send Lispen back to the demon world.

You can’t fool me. That was no King punishing a traitor. 

This was just a dad grounding his son for disobedience. 

We all like to say that Lispen is crazy for doing the things he did and expecting a positive result and response from the King... and I agree.

But a part of me also wonders what level of favour and status he had with the King before this for someone of his intelligence to have assumed that to begin with.

Sure Lispen may not have gotten what he wanted (and thank goodness for that), nonetheless, he did escape with his life and being which was already far more than he deserved from a political perspective.

Therefore, nothing proves to me that the King loves Lispen like this scene where he had very right and power to punish a traitor, but the maximum penalty enacted for his grievous crimes was just to send him back to his room world. 

(Like, he could’ve banished him to another dimension or something, but no. Just sent him back home.)

Honestly nothing makes me more curious and intrigued to see more flashbacks about the past of the demons’ world, their relationships, and what the @$%# went down back then like this scene does for me. 🙌

[regallibellbright]

Upon realizing I haven’t really Played A Video Game in a while and my heart clearly wants to Factor some Runes, I have finally begun replaying the 3DS version of RF4 to see if I can recreate whatever it is that made me think reverse confessions are a thing. (I swear. I SWEAR. That Kiel was the one to ask Frey to date and I didn’t initiate, and that it didn’t seem like a glitch on the game’s part. I have believed this for TEN YEARS. I know it’s not the proposals, RNG has never been kind enough to me for those. No one else has ever experienced this, apparently, and it BAFFLES me.)

Which means going through the classics:

1) The gender selection based off personal pronouns which naturally causes some confusion in English.

2) I forgot the first thing Venti says to you is, straight up, “Are you dead?” In fairness you did just fall out of the sky directly onto her. And THAT wasn’t even what gave you amnesia!… You are completely unharmed by this except for a sore back.

3) Seriously you get hit in the head once by a soldier with a sword, total memory loss. Plummet off an airship that is at best JUST beginning descent (and since the whole attack began before it would have, it probably isn’t,) through an open dome onto a dragon and then the VERY CLEARLY STONE FLOOR, walk it off with nothing more than some soreness. I’m serious about that headcanon that Earthmates’ weakness to counter their incredible magical power is that a stiff wind close enough to a town of quirky but good-hearted people will induce total amnesia. ESPECIALLY near a dragon.

4) Arthur just casually gives up his duties as a prince after thirty seconds of knowing you, which have mostly been spent with a dragon god pinning her and her butler’s screw up on you and the two of you whispering furiously at each other.

Venti: You realize this means betraying your father’s will, right?

Arthur: Yeah, and? (Paraphrased)

This little bit about Arthur technically committing treason or something (?!) never really comes up again. Unless you count the whole “hey your dad heard you dumped your prince duties on some nobody, uh, what gives?” in his proposal event, I guess. (Sidenote: Pretty sure you were also sent from Norad to deliver the Rune Spheres? I’ve never managed to unlock the third arc, granted, so I’m not 100% on Frey/Lest’s backstory’s specifics… I guess they were already worried about Sechs interference and sent Arthur and you on separate airships so you wouldn’t BOTH get attacked?) I do have so many questions about the King of Norad.

5) I love my tragic dragon god BFF. We don’t actually get to spend all THAT much time with her before she starts passing out from Lack of Runes for weeks, especially by this point where I know how to get around well enough that even not TRYING to speedrun this I’m probably going to have Amber by in-game tomorrow at earliest and I typically get Leon just before the Buddy Battle, but it does a good job making us care before it puts her in the peril comas.

Good Ol' Acorn

“Is that- Ha! It is! Good Ol’ Acorn!” the snotty voice broke through the air of the busy sounds of the city. As soon as Anya heard it, her hair instantly stood on edge. Her head turned around trying to see if she could find him before he made his way to her. 

Fate was not on her side as a large arm wrapped around her shoulder, dragging her into a headlock. Rough knuckle found her skull, digging into the top of her cranium.  Anya’s teeth clenched and her eyes went into a squint.  Gods, she just wanted to get to the Bonecloaks and pick up some extra healing potions. It was supposed to be a quick stop and then right back to Elfsong to regroup.

“Ah…. good to see you again, Mr. Elthor, sir,” Anya forced a smile upon her face. Anya grabbed the arm around her neck and tried to pull it off. “Could you please let me go?” Anya’s pleading blue eyes tried to look to the other members of his adventuring party for help, but they all just stayed silent.  The rogue, Kiel and the mage Poppy both averted their eyes to the scene out of guilt. The cleric, Yertie, did not. There was a small smirk on his face. “And my name is Anya.”

“I was wondering where ya were, we got a job comin’ up and I would love to have Good Ol’ Acorn back at camp,” Anya could smell his putrid breath from here.

“I am actually rather busy, and do not plan to go back to my job as a porter any time soon,” Anya finally wrestled his arm off of her, pushing away from him with a small look. “It was a pleasure to see you but I am afraid I have to go now.” She could see her destination, the apothecary. All she needed was an extra few healing potions and then she would go back to meet up with the others. 

“When did you get so cold?” Elthor sneered.  “Ya run into an old friend and business associate and you don’t even hear what kinda job it is, I bet it is more important than whatever ya ot. Acorn.” 

“I assure you, whatever quest you have is nothing compared to what I have to deal with and I do not need to deal with you on top of it,” the words left her mouth before she could even process them, however she meant each one.  “Now good day,” Anya said as she tried to walk away. 

A hand grabbed her wrist. Elthor’s brown eyes glared daggers into her back. “Ya got some nerve now, don’tcha Acorn?” there was a snarl in his voice as he yanked her towards her. He grabbed the collar of her shirt. “I heard that you’ve gotten into some adventures- seems like that has made ya forget your place?” he pulled his fist back. 

“Unhand her.”

All eyes flicked towards the booming voice of the towering wood elf. Halsin’s arms were crossed over his chest and his amber eyes were threatening to become alight with true primal fury. 

Anya had seen Halsin angry before, when he yelled at Kagha for all her actions and his feelings towards this hopeless city. But this was different. 

“Ohhh look at you! All big and scary,” Elthor said as he laughed. However the hand on Anya’s collar did drop her as all of the human’s attention was on Halsin. 

“Explain yourself.”

Elthor looked at him before he burst into laughter. “It ain’t nothing for ya to worry about,” without a care in the world, Elthor plopped a hand down on Anya’s shoulder  “This is all just some play fighting among old friends, you one of Acorn’s new friends?”

Halsin grabbed Elthor’s forearm in a vice grip and yanked it off of Anya’s shoulder. His other arm was quick with Anya, grabbing one of her shoulders and pulling her into his embrace. “You do not deserve to call Anya a friend, that much is clear to me. You would be wise to get out of my sight before I do something I won’t regret.” 

Elthor’s carefree expression changed to utter fear. He cleared his throat and yanked his arm away from Halsin. “Let’s go. Now.” he was the quickest to scurry away. Yertie was the only one who didn’t immediately follow, standing there for a moment in surprise to look at Anya and Halsin, before he followed with the others. 

“Halsin…. Thank you,” Anya said as she averted her eyes away from his face. She pushed her body a bit closer to him. 

As soon as the group was out of sight Halsin looked down at Anya and moved to look her over. “Who were they, my heart? Did they hurt you?”

“I am fine, they were… frequent clients,” Anya said. Elthor and his group were one of the first adventuring parties to have her as their porter at camp. “Elthor has never been…. The most agreeable man.” 

“Hmmm I believe that may be an understatement,” Halsin said before letting out a sigh. “I am glad you are alright… I hope I did not come off as too protective. I know you are capable of handling yourself,” Halsin said as he began to move away from her.

Anya grabbed onto one of Halsin’s hands. “No, I am glad you came when you did. I… never have been the best at standing up for myself,” she said as he moved her other hand to be holding the same hand. “Thank you.”

Halsin’s lips curled into a fond smile as he bent down, giving the top of her head a kiss.  “I will be there for you whenever you need me, my heart,” he took one of her hands into his. “Now, I believe you had an errand to run at the Apothecary, correct?”

“You are,” Anya smiled as she pointed her finger towards the destination. “Onwards, then!” she declared as she began to walk forward, tightening her grip just a little on Halsin’s hand. 

[ultramarine-spirit]

I have been thinking about this for a while now. We all know Athy likes pretty faces and that she's easily swayed by the two mls and we also know that Athy hasn't realized her feelings for Lucas at the moment (this is not about them) but I am more curious at how she truly feels for kiel in the past which is the childhood years up to the time she was at the Alpheus estate. I used to think she actually liked him at the time like a little crush because she keeps asking Lucas to send her to him a few times and always bickering with Lucas about how kiel is actually a gentleman not a pretentious one (chap 75) so I was like, yeah she likes but then re-reading their moments in the garden: in kiel's pov it's a special memory that he always talked about it to Athy how much it means to him but then Athy's pov it's an embarrassing one (chap 64) and whenever he brings up the past it makes her uncomfortable. So it used to confuse me until I read it again where she stayed at his estate and she always says he's a good babysitter and he's as considerate as before (when he helps them with anas). So I just came to the conclusion that maybe she was fascinated (if there is ever the right term for that lol) by his kindness and his face card is just a plus point and she never actually liked him and this reminds me of the tv show of my country the "Maria Clara and Ibarra" where the main protagonist was sent inside the book by her professor and there she she meets the male protagonist and live with him for a while as his cousin, and I find this similar to Athy, the main protagonist never received a love from her father and the male protagonist of the book is very kind to her that maybe at some point she actually like him but at the end she herself realized that what she felt for him was familiar love (so he's a father figure to her). After comparing Athy to her it makes sense to me. And when you pay attention to Athy whenever Lucas did something good for her reactions are very to kiel, and that the one she loves is Lucas. It has always been Lucas. I wish their relationship was emphasized more in manhwa tho. Oh but I don't know about the novel, there was a scene where she said she never allowed herself to like kiel (I'm not so sure about this, I didn't read the novel) so at some point she actually liked him even just a little🤏🏻 (like 0.01%?). Who's with me?🙋🏻‍♀️ I'm actually here for this.

What do you think? What do you think about her feelings?

Wow, this got really long. Sorry🫶🏻

Oh wait, will this cause a war between ships?

Honestly, I'm stucked into thinking about Lucathy ever since the main story has been completed.

I don't think Athy felt anything for Ijekiel (or Lucas, for that matter) when she was that little. She only met Kiel twice (when she first saw Jennette, and again shortly after), so it's not like that encounter had a huge impact on her (if anything, seeing Jennette impacted her way more). Plus, she was very little (or old, if you count her real age).

I do think she started to feel attracted to him after he came back to Obelia. But I also don't think she had that much contact with him while she stayed with the Alpheus. That never happened in the novel (which I like better, since it shows how independent Athy was surviving alone with nobody's help, but I get why Spoon made that narrative decision), so it's something just manhwa-canon. And she mostly spent her time with Jennette. Athy did have a lot more encounters with Ijekiel in the novel, and those novel-only scenes impacted her more. I actually wish we had more Kiel scenes in general, he was great in the novel. Though yes, I agree that the main thing that stopped Athy from seriously considering him romantically was Jennette. In that sense, Athy prioritized Jennette's feelings over her possible romantic interests.

Anyone who has started fights over ships and/or characters has been blocked by me already, and will be swiftly blocked if I see it, so that's not an issue. It's dumb to deny that Athy felt attraction towards Ijekiel, though not everyone agrees to which degree. And it's also dumb to deny that Athy fell in love with Lucas and ended up with him. Anyone can ship whatever they want as long as people aren't toxic to others about it.

Can you connect the German city of Kiel to Diehard please? Thanks

Well the lazy way of doing this is the villain in Die Hard is Hans Gruber who was German and Kiel is in Germany. I could also be like: Oh Bruce Willis was born in Germany and yeah. But I love making things more convoluted than that...

So, we all know that Bruce Willis is in Die Hard, but an even more important role was his role as Tony Amato in one singular episode of Miami Vice, which we all know stars Don Johnson in it, who we all know was in Rian Johnson's movie Knives Out, which we all know. Ok I'll stop, even if this is just for you. You know actually I really wanted to connect this to Knives Out and then to 10 Things I Hate About You or 3rd Rock from the Sun because of Joseph Gordon-Levitt, but I have changed my mind, as it turns out Edward James Olmos is in the same Miami Vice episode as Don Johnson. Okay, so Edward James Olmos is Admiral Adama in Battlestar Galactica, which also stars Michael Hogan, from your favorite TV show ever, Teen Wolf. BUT, he is also in Skyrim as General Tullius. Skyrim also has Christopher Plummer as Arngeir, who was also in Knives Out. But that's not as fun as connecting to Charles Martinet, who was in the Mario movie despite not playing Mario but whatever. Now, as much as I love Charlie Day and want to connect through him, I feel the need to connect through Crisp Rat, but I'm resisting that cause I had a revelation. Charlie Day is in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, starring Danny DeVito, but Kim Whalen was in an episode of that show, and I love Starkid. Corey Dorris is also in Starkid and he was in an episode of Future Man, which has our icon, Josh Hutcherson, who was in Journey to the Centre of the Earth with Brendan Frasier, who was in the Mummy with Rachel Weisz, and she is married to Daniel Craig, bringing us BACK to Knives Out. Am I losing track of the mission?? NO!!!! So, Knives Out has many amazing cast members, but one of the more iconic ones, is Frank Oz. I just realized that my goal was to eventually bring my connection to the Lion King, and I can easily do that now cause Frank Oz is Yoda, but also that's lame cause I wanted to bring it to Matthew Broderick, but let it be known that we could just do Frank Oz to James Earl Jones at this point. So, Frank Oz was in Star Wars with Mark Hamill, who is in many, many things, such as Avatar, which features Dee Bradley Baker as Appa. He is also Perry the Platypus in Phineas and Ferb (for some reason my brain broke and almost wrote Despicable Me). Phineas and Ferb features Thomas Brodie-Sangster, which is always very funny to me, but it also has Ashley Tisdale, who was in the wonderful movie, 2009's Aliens in the Attic. Aliens in the Attic features many people, including Austin Butler, someone who was in the After movies, Tim Meadows, and Andy Richter, who played Mort in Madagascar. Ben Stiller is in Madagascar, who was in Night as the Museum, which has Rami Malek, who was in Bohemian Rhapsody with Joe Mazzello, who is in Jurassic Park (AND a movie called Star Kid). Jeff Goldblum is in Jurassic Park and also in Thor: Ragnarok, which also has Sam Neill in it, but unrelated to the goal at hand. Thor has Chris Hemsworth, who was in 2009's Star Trek, starring Chris Pine, who was in Wonder Woman with Robin Wright, who is in the Princess Bride with Cary Elwes, who was in Psych. Since they are not in the same episode, James Roday Rodriguez is in Psych, and so is Ally Sheedy, who was in War Games with Matthew Broderick.

To answer your question, yes, I came to the official conclusion that I really needed to get on track or this would literally last forever. Crazy how I can get myself to do this and not my homework. Ignore the fact that it took me over a month to respond to your question. Matthew Broderick is Simba in the Lion King, which also features Nathan Lane as Timon. Nathan Lane was in The Nutcracker: The Untold Story, which I know about solely because of Danny Gonzalez. Nathan Lane plays Albert Einstein in this movie, and so, within the lore of the movie, we could accurately state that because Albert Einstein exists within the movie, so does Max Planck, who knew Lise Meitner. I just wanted to say that cause I am aware as to how much you love her. But Max Planck was born in Kiel. Thank you and goodnight.

If I wanted to play this seriously, and not in my convoluted "6" Degrees of Michael Sheen way, probably could've connected Die Hard to Charlie Chaplin somehow, who met Albert Einstein but NO!!

I hope you enjoy this well thought out response, @wiggogwiggogywrath :)

P.S. That point where I was nervous about this going on forever took A LOT of willpower to not continue. Like I was gonna go into the After series and then end up in Harry Potter or some shit. I'm sure I would eventually run into both Smosh and Dropout cause I am addicted. Luckily for you, I was so concentrated at the task at hand, I somehow like forgot that I usually include those too but whatever. There ya go. Bitch.

P.P.S. I just wanted to do this cause now I can't stop please send help oh god oh no I can't stop, can't stop typing why did you do this to me I can't escape

P.P.P.S. Bye :)

Here are my thoughts on CM 17x03:

Oh I’m absolutely scared for what Elias said to Luke

it’s p*rn? Fuck I’m gonna be sick

No Emily you don’t get to make that decision. The team have a right to know

Not this Brian guy being back

What is Tyler up to???

So they’ve known about this BAU-gate?

Luke with the kids is so sweet

Oh I just want to hug Sydney. Kiele’s performance is so good

Lmao Emily is so done with Brian

Who’s taking photos of Emily??

I love seeing Tara and Rossi in the field together

Oh that’s terrifying the unsub is using carbon monoxide to subdue the victims

Oh don’t you dare hurt that expectant couple

What the fuck Tyler?? What are you doing?

I really appreciate Sydney telling holly she did nothing wrong

We should’ve seen Rossi going through that window

Hold on is Charlotte okay? Why did no one immediately go to her

Sydney and Elias talking alone will be interesting

Fuck. They made JJ the focal point. No what the fuck. I’m gonna be sick

I wanna hug JJ so much. Why would do they do this to her

Tyler you need to understand that Garcia is no longer the black queen

No..JJ went onto the site. She doesn’t deserve this. I wanna hug her so much. My poor girl

Fucking Brian

Not Emily getting arrested

I’m really currently as to what’s going to happen in the next episode. There clearly is going to be a fallout between JJ and Emily over this. And Elias and Sydney talking will certainly be interesting
