#Okkkk and that’s enough incomprehensible rambling from me for today 👍

Thank you for the tag Margin!! oh goodness… this might require some thought.

In no particular order I’d have to say

A phoenix. Broken, crushed and beaten, and yet rising from the ashes. Somebody who’s lost everything, and thinks they’ve lost, but still keeps going. There’s nothing left to lose, but they have gained hope and clarity, and they understand like they never had before.

Knowledge and power that cannot be shared. The same experience that has taught them so much has separated them from the rest of humanity, and the divide feels too great to even think of bridging it. So they don’t. (Until somebody comes along stubborn enough to meet them halfway)

A man who is strong, and protective, and willing to fight, and yet greatly respects and marvels at the world around him. He understands the value of life.

Sunshine. A character who is joyful, and hopeful, and tries so hard to shine a light, even when the world is falling away under their feet. Suffering hurts to watch, and they do their best to keep it at bay, if only to see one more smile.

Still waters run deep. Young, quiet and unassuming, but humble, wise and kind. Oh so kind. A trickling stream that runs down to a thundering waterfall. Strong and unshakeable as a mountain. One hundred percent give THE best hugs ever.

ok I lied the last one is my favorite

@adrift-in-thyme @uniquevoidflowers and anyone else! No pressure ofc :)

I've seen people do this tag/ask game that asks you to list your five favourite character archetypes and wanted to have a try, so here I am, starting a chain.

Hero Who Goes Out In A Blaze Of Self-Sacrifice

The Good King (take those two archetypes together and you get Findarato Artafinde Ingoldo Finrod Edennil my beloved but anyway I'm normal now) (edit: a tangent, but Faithful Servant Thereof Always By The Side Of His Liege might be even better)

Fiery Prodigy Whose Theme Resumes In Minor Key

Gods Who Are Kind

Jerk I Love To Hate (vying for this position with Murderer And Wrong To Do It But He Had Reasons a.k.a Fandom Will Condone Him And I Will Grind My Teeth)
