When Lucanis looks at the ocean, he sees his time in the Ossuary, trapped and imprisoned, moreso than he'd been by the Crows; he sees his confinement.
When Lydia looks at the ocean, she sees the Felicisima Armada providing her an opportunity to escape from her slavers as a child, a world of vast possibilities; she sees liberation.
When Lucanis sees her, and thinks of how she rescued him from the Ossuary, he starts to see the freedom of the ocean as well.
#y'all see what i'm saying about laidir/lucanis <3#two side of the same coin sun/moon yin/yang etc.#it's canon that rook laidir was a “tevinter galley slave” at one point#and it's my headcanon that lydia at age 10-12 was out at sea when the ship she was on was attacked by Raiders#and she stowed away with them until she could make it to shore (the coast of Rivain)#anyway i just think there's something beautiful about their kind of mutual understanding of what it means to have your will taken from you#that other backgrounds (except maybe de riva) just don't really have i guess#imo anyway#datv#rookanis#marie speaks#oc: lydia laidir
