GUYS. GUYS. IDK IF ANYONE HAS POINTED THIS OUT YET BUT IN THE WEEPING SHOTS AARAVOS HAS HIS HEART.

in the “elf sad” clip, his heart is missing as usual. BUT ALSO

he has it in the poster. so either something like CHET becomes canon or this is a FLASHBACK to BEFORE HE FELL.

Yesterday, the IDF admitted to executing 3 hostages who were carrying white flags. It led to protests in Tel Aviv

Today Al Qassam Brigades spokesman Abu Obeida released a statement

In response, the families have taken to the streets to protest their government's actions.

Do you pray for the hostages too?

Yes. I pray for the 110 or so israeli and immgrant hostages assumed to still be alive. And I also pray for the hundreds of Palestianian hostages arrested without charge in Israeli prisons assumed to be alive.

I pray for a ceasefire so that the Israeli hostages are released. I also pray for the end of Israeli apartheid government, so that Palestianians are liberated.

“Israel refused the hostages before!”

You seriously believe that after the recent hostage exchange where they had to turn over MULTIPLE convicted criminals, most for attempted murder?

Oh, that’s right. You think that they didn’t actually commit those crimes and that they were a fucking lie.. no, sorry. ‘Propaganda.’

Stop. Defending. These. Criminals.

Whether they’re kids or not doesn’t change the fact that they have stabbed people, tried to bomb places, have shot people, etc.

Absolutely drives me wild that one of rayla's first and most significant scenes is "Your Let Him Live but You've Killed Us All" given the direction this series is going

[rotzaprachim]

yeah I’m never going to forgive any of the protestors for not choosing this moment to march on Washington with a massive CEASEFIRE NOW movement

the night you danced like you knew our lives would never be the same

Inspired by this post.

Rayla and Ezran dance at her and Callum's wedding. (PS; accidentally posted this on my sideblog, so I deleted it and copy and pasted it here)

Very few things in Callum’s life were his own.

His staff had once been Ibis’s, office once Viren’s, seat at the council’s table once the former High Mage’s, too. Things that had been lost and passed down along with the bloodshed and betrayal, just as everything seemed to be.

But Rayla was his. Not “his” in a creepy ownership way, but his in that his heart belonged to her, and hers him. His in that they were finally connected in every sense of the word, connected in a way that even life, fate, and history books could never twist.

So even now, with silver cuffs circling her horns and a matching ring finally on his finger, Callum wouldn't– couldn't –let her go far, keeping an arm circled around her waist and occasionally dropping his head to her shoulder, even going so far as to press a kiss to her neck when enough eyes were off them.

He could understand why the elf was popular, in high demand; he'd married her, after all, but it didn't irk him any less. Rayla was the daughter of two Dragonguard and one herself, had returned the Dragon Prince home, had saved the world twice now, and managed to capture the heart of the–apparently–infamously picky and hard-to-please Crown Prince and High Mage of Katolis.

Visiting dignitaries kept asking to dance with her, offer a drink, and while it was nice to see relations between the Pentarchy and Xadia truly blossoming, Callum really just wished everyone would leave so he could be alone with his wife–his wife! He could still scarcely believe it; it still felt like she'd be ripped from his fingers, like the universe decided they had to save the whole entire world again and wanted to hurt her just for the hell of it.

The last time she'd strayed from his side had been back at the Starscraper, the Celestial elves claiming she had to undergo some trial on her own, and the next thing Callum knew, the damn cube had been dropping from his hand and Rayla taking its place, all hell unleashed in the moments after.

So, no. He could hardly stand to let her go far anymore, not when she'd been gods-know-where all on her own for two whole years, not when his unabashed love for her was clear as day and so easily taken advantage of. If she was in his sight, in his arms, he could keep her safe. That's what he had to keep telling himself, at least.

And, yeah, Callum appreciated that it was completely paranoid and irrational; he couldn't very well get rid of every threat in existence, but the rush of calm when her sturdy warmth was in his arms, the trauma, didn't really adhere to reason. And she didn’t seem to have any inclination to go far from him, either, so it worked out just fine.
