I’m not sure what direction they’ll take with the alys and aemond relationship and how genuine it will be but I really WOULD like to see aemond experience unconditional love. it would drive home the tragedy of his character if he finds what he’s been searching for his whole life only when it’s too late to change the ending

realizing it’s mutual (ID in alt)

[1ncend1ary]

yeah.

[hiekka]

they would have so much potential for gentleness in their dynamic after all their deeper complex-clashings would demand further vulnerability thus trust and understanding...

Has anyone considered the fact that Shen Jiu burning the Qiu manor to the ground and Yue Qingyuan arriving late to find the burnt manor means that not only was he convinced Shen Jiu died in that fire, he probably went back to the sect and made a memorial tablet for him. So yea, anyway, I was thinking, what if Shen Jiu found the tablet with his name on it later on after becoming a Qing Jing disciple and realized that Yue Qingyuan probably never showed up because he thought he was dead.

Hien & Benichidori compilation

Okay so I put a & but this absolutely a shippy post, the hienichidori community is quiet af and there is no discourse but their comics in their Adventurer’s Bible profiles…!!! Many may ask, does Benichidori canonically have a crush on Hien?! Straightforward answer: It’s left heavily implied but yes. Alternate answer: If the framing of Falin in an explosion as Toshiro says that he loves her isn’t meant to associate the explosion with falling in love when it is mirrored in the next page, then… I think it’s a mix of both, I don’t think just this is true because Hien wouldn’t know who Shuro is talking about or even what Falin looks like, but it could be that the explosion is instead meant to show a world vision being shaken, the thing blowing you away. So for Hien, having Shuro say that breaks this unsaid assumption she’s always had that they might end up together, and thus Falin is taken like an explosion to the face. Similarly, for someone with facial dysmorphia and for who appearances and being subservient are everything, having Hien be confident and totally assume her plain looks, even uplifting herself, that also shakes her world like a bomb. And yes it’s not just about the makeup!! Benichidori’s drawn to her confidence, to her unapologetic attitude, to her attitude. Benichidori unexpectedly snapped at Hien too, but she was totally unshaken and she replied casually and lightheartedly even then; Benichidori saying she can be herself with Hien is about Hien not caring about her mask, both her makeup and her subdued demeanor. Hien is canonically special to Benichidori.

And on the note of that comic, I took a picture from my Adventurer’s Bible for this but I think the fantranslations I’ve seen are lovely too, really gets across all the meaning of the original sentence… Where Benichidori said "She was the only one I could be my unadorned self in front of" (which is my fave) or "I’m able to act my honest self with her". Benichidori having body(more specifically facial) dysmorphia is explicitly stated in the Adventurer’s Bible btw.

Pleasee how Hien’s extra is her talking about her life story and Toshiro to Benichidori… How Hien says "That guy is blind!" and Benichidori says "I’ve noticed that 😊" as if saying that Toshiro is blind to what a catch Hien is… Also in the ninja girls’ shared inn room Benichidori puts her futon next to Hien’s bed.

adrienette break up SHOULD be initiated by marinette AND it will result in yet another Iconic Marichat Moment where Adrien guiltily goes to her as chat out of desperation to just BE with her again in some way and she cries in his arms about the ex-boyfriend she still loves and when he asks her ‘why don’t you just get back together with him if you still love him? if it was a mistake I’m sure he’d understand I’m sure he’d be so happy to have you back’ and she just weakly murmurs ‘I can’t…’ to him and sounds so pained that he realizes that he shouldn’t try and get back together bc no matter what the reason is marinette’s clearly hurting and well. At least he knows she still loves him. Surely that’s enough

a few intensely angry/tired marcilles just because

[thesandsofelsweyr]

I'm wondering, AK!Jason managed to open himself up and get a lover, he finally let his walls crumble and let himself love and be loved.

But

Buut

Buuut

Somehow his s/o managed to trigger his trauma accidentally, as if they said something that turned the domestic atmosphere back into the black and eerie ambience of Arkham or maybe an action of his s/o resembled a lot like the Joker's, Harley's or the rogues who beat him up.

How would AK!Jason react?

Jay unfortunately has a lot of triggers, so this happens more often than his s/o would like 😞 He'll try to flee before his panic overwhelms him—he despises when others see his "weakness", especially his s/o. But sometimes the trauma response is too strong, and he'll crumble to the floor right then and there, shaking like a leaf, clutching at his chest, gasping for breath on the verge of hyperventilating, unbidden tears clinging to his thick black lashes.

His s/o has learned what to do in this situation. You'll kneel down beside him, speaking softly to him, words of reassurance: "This will pass... they always pass, remember?... you're safe here... I'm with you... I'm not going anywhere... deep breaths, in... and out... again... can you tell me five things you can touch?... good, that's good baby... now, four things you can hear... three things you can smell... two things you can taste... you're doing so good baby... the darkness is receding, you'll see the light again soon, I swear... can you open your eyes for me?... see, I'm here with you, no one will ever hurt you again..."

All the while you'll take his scarred fist in your own hands and massage his gnarled knuckles until his fingers unfurl, then you'll press his calloused palm against your heart, grounding him with your calm heartbeat, with the steady rise and fall of your chest as you breathe softly, until finally he accepts the warmth of your embrace, tucking his head beneath your chin as his breathing slows, so you can drop tender kisses into his mop of unruly black hair while he clings to you, in the reassuring safety of your embrace 💙

Yall I am so tempted to go back to my roots and write an Isekai fic for Dungeon meshi. 😤 all I can ever think about is dying in some stupid way at work and getting isekaied there.

Gen Z dies by falling off a ladder and wakes up in a field outside the dungeon.

What yall think?

[mischiefprincess]

I long for more Asgard content, I want to see the streets, the markets, the architecture of the simple houses, the protocols of the royal court, Loki's chambers, Loki's closet, I want to know what were Loki's duties as a prince, did people have to call him your highness? Where did he eat? Is there a feasting hall?

Do the princes have to attend to all morning and night feasts or are they allowed to eat in their chambers? Are there servants designated to help Loki specifically? To prepare his baths, fetch his wine and food and help him get dressed? Does every member of the royal family have their own personal tailors/seamsters? Who chooses the fabrics for their clothes?

If Loki decides to buy let's say a new dagger does he have to go to a shop or can he order to have the daggers brought to him so he can choose while comfortably drinking wine on his bed? And how is the payment done? Does he have his own personal finances or is everything taken from the royal vaults?

Does Odin have an office from where he can talk to his sons/generals and assign them missions while dealing with paperwork (like Tywin's office in got) or is everything done in the throne room? Does Loki has his own suite of quarters or he only has his chambers? If so does that mean that he has his own personal staff to take care of his section of the palace? Are they loyal to him?

How do the common people view the princes? Do they see Loki as a villain or is he so detached from their ordinary lives that they don't think much about him? Is Loki considered a good catch bc he's royalty or is his image so tainted by his title of god of mischief that people avoid getting involved with him? Do the cortiers have to bow in his presence?

Are Sif and the warriors three nobles? Are they above the regular courtier? What is their station? Does their position as the heir's close friends puts them above everyone else except the members of the royal family? Are they allowed to jab at Loki because Thor allows them to or even if he didn't they would face no consequence for treating him as an equal/beneath them at times?

So many questions, so many things to think about, I NEED answers (and sadly I won't get any bc marvel literally destroyed one of the most ineteresting places they had for the sake of comedy I guess)
