Headcanon that after Rayla left, Callum couldn't summon his wings for months. The first time he was able to again was to help Ezran.

DIDNT NEED TO CRY AT 3 AM ON A SATURDAY BUT OKAY

when you break his heart, ruin his birthday, and disappear for two years but he still loves you

[raayllum]

Don't let your parents' mistakes drag you down. I know you feel guilty, but you're not thinking straight. / I was trying to protect him. I left without him because I couldn't bear to put him in danger.

put your feet in the river, and swim

Dear Callum’s future wife,

I’m going to say right now that this isn't for you. I don't want anyone else to have his love– I want it to be all mine, forever. 

I should’ve known it would never be like that, though. We were doomed from the start, by whatever’s out there, so maybe you and him won’t be. You should only have to be doomed with one person.

It hurts to imagine him walking down lover’s lane with anyone but me– that's this path he took me on, with pink apple blossom petals on the ground and the sun setting through the leaves. It was its own little world with just us two.

But that's selfish. He deserves to love and move on and be happy, and if you are what gives him that, then I wish you all the best with every bit of my soul.

Callum is more than anyone could dream or wish for, and finding him will be like you are coming home for the first time. You must appreciate and know it every single day, every moment, with every fiber of your being.

So take care of him. And do it well, or I swear I’ll find you and I’ll kill you even if I’m already dead, because he can’t go through anything like what I did to him again.

I fell in love with a girl on the dark side of the moon But when she steps out into the light, she's gone too soon And as she shines and wanes I watch her wave from the milky way I fell in love with a girl on the dark side of the moon [Chorus] If I shut my eyes, will you appear? 'Cause I'm not me without you here And is it fair to let you know That I'm afraid to let you go?

I fell in love with a girl who lives inside my mind And I go searching but she's right behind my eyes And when she steps in frame, I reach out but she fades away I fell in love with a girl who I may never find

Far Side of the World by Holden Miller is Callum’s perspective of Rayllum tell me I’m wrong.

Wait, but what if Rayla has to kill Callum and it not only fulfills the promise she reluctantly gave to him, but it also calls back to S1 and the way they met each other where she feels like she has to kill him to fulfill a pact she gave with the Moonshadow assassins -- for Xadia.

And the tragic potential poetry it would be if as a "failed" assassin that she's been plagued by for the entire show, the only person she truly killed was the one person she loved more than anyone.

i am having emotions over rayllum because i was just watching tiktoks and one of them had You Are My Sunshine as the sound and- you see where this is going

“please don’t take my sunshine away” hit DIFFERENT

[leo-ne-vinci]

All I can think about is how Rayla and Callum are in Xadia 

and Rayla lives in Xadia 

and if Tinker really is her 2nd dad then they’ll meet him 

and he’ll probably be able to pick up on Rayla’s feelings

...and I don’t know any classic star-crossed story that ended well...

"I wish I was part of, uh, something?

I wish that, um, anything I said,

uh, mattered to anyone.

I mean, face it!

Would anyone even notice if

I just... disappeared tomorrow?"

(ps, thanks to @raayllum for the pretty-colored edits!! <3)

"it will never be the same. because of rayla...it was impossible to say her name out loud...are you doing alright? he couldn't think about her. not now...i wish i could say that we will see each other again, but i don't know if we will. i hope so...i don't want you to see me like this. keep believing in illusions if it makes you feel better...you still love her, don't you? i don't even know if she's alive. she's alive. and wherever she is, she loves you, too...well then, you've found me. i messed up. i know i did. but that's why you have to let me make it right...i'm here with you. we're gonna be okay."

delves into callum and rayla's reunion — trying to navigate their complicated feelings. [s4 speculation]

[foxie-roxie]

im gonna spend way too long on this post

PREDICTIONS FOR S4 TTM SPOILERS

-i will bet my fucking chips that aaravos is gonna try to start manipulating someone from the dragang because nobody knows who he is, callum just knows he exists and has his cube

-SPEAKING OF CALLUM i think we’re gonna get more coverage on his own trauma (along with rayla’s) because it feels like he was just kind of ignoring it by focusing on rayla and helping her

one problem now rayla’s fucking gone so i will not be surprised if s4 is just “Callum Having A Mental Breakdown For 9 Episodes Straight”

they need therapy

-FUCK OFF IM MANIFESTING A RAYLA ALONE EPISODE

back to aaravos tho

-i feel like he might try to manipulate callum or rayla because ez is a kid and soren would be like “absolutely not” unless he said something abt claudia idk

while aaravos could probably manipulate rayla or callum because callum is gonna be looking for rayla probably and rayla wants closure on her parents/runaan and they both don’t know who he is, in fact nobody does besides claudia/covid-19 (viren)

the only way i could see that not happening is that it just doesn’t happen OR claudia’s redemption arc gets kicked off and she goes to warn callum/the dragang/maybe rayla about him and tell them abt viren and such

i’ve been neglecting my son

-i feel like we’re gonna get more politics because we really haven’t seen much of it, we got a lil taste of it in s3 but i feel like SOMEBODY’S still gonna be mad abt the elves and such so we’ll probably deal with that

-we’ll probably explore rayla’s trauma more along with callum’s and we could get some parallels with them? idk

anyway that’s abt it, i just want my kids to be happy, fuck lord coronavirus and b gay do crime

also fuck aaron ehasz

[leo-ne-vinci]

I’M SORRY. 

What started out as a joke on star-crossed lovers and Aaravos having stars on his body, somehow turned into this...
