Birb liveblogs the final Temeraire trilogy: League of Dragons
Overseas travel edition! I devoured this book on a 15hr flight without the ability to update my reactions live, so here they are all in one go, with much less screaming in the tags
So obvs Iâm devastated that Tharkay is gone again but itâs tickling me pink that Laurence is like âoh weâre cuddling on dragonback? Itâs Tharkay or bust for me uwuâ. And itâs undeniably hysterical that in the middle of The Most Important War Effort So Far, Novik is taking extra time to discuss dragonback cuddle logistics. Truly zero notes
Naomi Novik stop killing off everyone Laurence cares about challenge ToT ToT ToT
Laurence screaming and thrashing while Hammond and Temeraire play dress up with him might be the funniest running gag in the entire series
I LIED the funniest running gag in the series is every single description of Temeraire âheroicallyâ expressing 1 singular generosity
The Miss Merkelyte romcom C plot is absolutely sending me. What the fuck is happening lmao
CALL THARKAY A FUCKIN WHACKAMOLE THE WAY HEâS ALWAYS POPPING UP OUT OF RANDOM-ASS HOLES IN EVERY WRETCHED SWATH OF BACKCOUNTRY ON THE PLANET
âIâm soooo over my act of treason it doesnât bother me at allâ <- words dreamed up by the utterly deranged (someone who is not over his act of treason even a little bit)
Awwww babyâs first PTSDâŠâŠ.. :(
This will not surprise anyone but Iâm immediately obsessed with Ning. Big fan of a character whose primary narrative purpose is to tell everyone theyâre being big old idiots
Hoo boy the way Laurence handles his authority, particularly when reprimanding rude subordinates, sets off my competency kink like no oneâs business. And heâs built like a linebacker on top of that?? *fans self* Iâm so so glad we get to see him be a proper captain again, itâs a lovely bit of closure to finish out the series
âMy dear, that is the Temeraire, herselfâ PARDON ME I MUST SQUEAL, Iâm so unbelievably soft for this owo
Laughing my ass off at Laurence turning his raggedy band of ferals into a bunch of crypto bros
Man remember in the first few books when the divine wind was this mighty and rare thing? And now it seems Temeraire is loosing the thing twice a chapter. I love *clenches fist* a tangible depiction of growth over the length of a narrative
Crying screaming gnashing my teeth over Tharkay showing up out of nowhere at the end of everything and saying âhey. Do u wanna retire with me while ur dragon menaces the government? Do u wanna do that maybe forever? Haha jkâŠâŠ. unlessâŠ..?â Theyâre both so silly and speaking in so much euphemism. Itâs gonna take them 10 years to even kiss each other. Iâm coming apart at the seams about it
#temeraire#Temeraire spoilers#neko rambles#IM AAAAAAAAA#so sad the series is over#honestly by the end I didnât even care about the war effort LOL#I just want Tharkay and Laurence to be in love forever

Origin Stories
summary: baby first year matty arrives at hogwarts and the first person he interacts with seems to not know him at all. matty is unsure how to feel when someone treats him like just another person instead of the dark lords son
warnings: fluff, little bit o angst, sad baby matty
an: something my hubby @musingsofahufflepuff and i have been yapping about constantly, there's more where this came from, and yes...it will continue to hurt you
Knees pulled to his chest, he sat at the window watching all the happy and excited parents dropping their children off for their first time at Hogwarts. It was Mattheoâs first time too, but instead of parents dropping him off he had Feindre, his house elf.
Feindre had gotten him there early enough for Mattheo to be one of the first students on the train and stayed long enough for Mattheo to see Feindre give a gentle wave before snapping his fingers and disappearing from the platform.
Thatâs what heâd been doing for the last half hour; watching family after family give loving hugs and cheek kisses and bidding their children farewell. Even Mr. Nott had come with his wife to see Theo off, giving a firm squeeze to the skinny boy's shoulder and a curt nod.Â
The whistle blew overhead and Mattheo leaned his head back, closing his eyes and willing himself to think of at least one positive thing that may come for him this year. Heâd be away from his mother; that was a plus. As far as Mattheo was aware even she couldnât get onto the grounds without the proper permissions; that gave Mattheo at least four months free from torture.
As the train started to pull from the station he heard the train car door slide open, an entirely too excited voice suddenly speaking to him, âDâyou mind? Every other car has four or so kids in it.â Mattheo shrugged his shoulders, not even opening his eyes to look.
He knew he didnât recognize the voice. His cousin Dracoâs was a little higher pitched, whiney. Theoâs was slower, like he had to think about each word before he said it. This voice was more neutral, but seemed to be speaking quickly, like they had so many thoughts and feelings they couldnât get them out quick enough.Â
âSâkinda weird we had to walk through a wall to get on the platform, right? Magic is so cool.â Mattheo peered an eye open, chancing a glance at the person across from him. It seemed as if you were vibrating, sitting cross legged on the seat across from him, hands braced on either side as your knees held a steady bounce.
Your smile was nearly splitting your face; Mattheo couldnât decide if your question was indicative of a muggle upbringing or just the first born for your family. âSo what house do you want to get into? I was doing some light reading in one of our textbooks, Hogwarts: A History, and I think any of them will be good.âÂ
Definitely muggle, Mattheo thought to himself as you kept talking, âI know that Hufflepuffs are very loyal, Ravenclaws are super smart I guess, Slytherins apparently are really clever and I read that Gryffindors are supposed to be just the bravest.â The scoff leaves Mattheos throat quicker than he could control.
âWell do you think differently? I know I can talk a lot but Iâm also a good listener.â Mattheo lifted his head up at this, now choosing to stare at you with a quirked brow. You continued to press regardless, âWhat house do you think youâll be in?â Mattheo stared out the window once more, watching the highland mountains pass by, âI already know my house.â This statement piqued your interest, âWhat do you think it is?â
Mattheo used all his mental energy not to roll his eyes, âIâll be a Slytherin, my family has only ever been Slytherins.â You seemed to sit up straighter then, your tone getting more excited, if that was even possible, âSo youâre from a family of wizards then? Thatâs so cool, whatâs it like?â
He stared at you incredulously, âYou being serious?â You simply tilted your head, smile never leaving your face, âBoth of my parents are normal, erm, non-wizards? I donât know what you guys call them but thatâs what they are.âÂ
Mattheo wore an unimpressed look, âShockerâŠnever would have guessed by your raging enthusiasm.â You laughed softly, âI know, right. Mum cried for like an hour when I got my letter.â Mattheo sat up straighter then, eyes widening. He could feel his heart rate pick up slightly, a tinge of sweat beading on the back of his neck, âWhy, because she was disappointed, was she mad? Where did you hide after she stopped crying?â
You looked at him with confusion, shaking your head and a small bit of concern in your tone, âWhat? No, because she was just so happy for meâŠâ Mattheo shrank into himself, pulling his knees back up to his chest, âRight, yeah, aâcourse.âÂ
You fiddled with the hem of your sleeve, âSo, ehm, do you know people who are coming to Hogwarts then? I donât know anyoneâŠwell, except you now. What, erm, what was your name again?â Mattheo visibly stiffened. You could just be being polite, asking for his name like he was just any other student. Or his reputation precedes him even with muggle-born first years and youâre just too scared to tell him that you already know about him, his father, what heâs done. âMattheoâŠerm, Riddle.â You nodded, âCool name! Iâm y/n y/l/n.â
Mattheo canât help the quizzical look that takes over him at how breezily you move on and introduce yourself. How can you not be afraid of him, of his name. Not that he wants you to be, but if youâve been reading as much as you say, surely youâve heard of what his father has done.Â
But all of it seems nonexistent as you start talking again, âDo you think weâll have to wear those little cone hats Iâve seen in the textbook? Theyâre not very fashionable are they? And Iâm sure you wouldnât want to wear one either.â Mattheo took the bait, âWhy would you think I wouldnât want to wear one?â
You shrugged, smiling a little shyer than before, âWell because of your hair. If I had curls as pretty as yours I wouldnât want to have to cover them up all the time.â The heat on Mattheoâs cheeks was nearly instantaneous, then he started to feel a bit of rage, âAre you making fun of me?â
You shook your head fiercely, âOh no, no way! I figured you got complimented on your hair all the time.â Compliment? You were complimenting him. Why would you do that? What were you playing at? Mattheo was fighting an internal battle, not understanding why you were being so nice to him and trying desperately to understand the new feeling fluttering in his chest at your compliment.Â
Thankfully the door to the train car opens and a jolly looking woman displays a trolly full of sweets and snacks in the doorway; the perfect distraction.
âAnything from the trolly, dears?â Youâre excited once more, leaving your seat to get a closer look at the sweets. You turn towards Mattheo, âWhatâs your favorite candy? Iâve never heard of any of these beforeâŠchocolate frogs, cauldron cakes, fizzing whizzbees-âÂ
âThe last oneâs good I- erm, I think youâd like those,â Mattheo watched as you asked the trolly witch for one pack of cauldron cakes and two fizzing whizzbees. âThatâll be two galleons and a sickle, dear,â the trolly witch smiled kindly at you.
You pulled a handful of wizard coins from your pocket looking slightly confused. Mattheo cleared his throat, âTwo gold ones and a silver one.â You nodded, taking the coins he described and exchanging them for your sweets. Sitting back down across from him you began opening your cauldron cakes.
You placed one on top of one of the fizzing whizzbees pack and then held it in front of you towards Mattheo. âWhatâre you doing?â he asked, finding your behavior rather odd, even for a muggle. You only smiled in return, âThis is your half silly.âÂ
Mattheo hesitantly took the sweets, âWhy would you share with me?â You sat back, taking a bite of the cauldron cake and humming in satisfaction, âWhy wouldnât I share with you?â you spoke around a cheek full of cake, âThese are really good by the way.â
Mattheo felt a weird pang in his chest, something he didnât recognize. It was almost like an adrenaline rush but he wasnât in danger this time; his skin felt hot all of a sudden, his blood rushing to his ears. He pulled subtly on his curls on the side of his head, not sure exactly what he was trying to cover up. You didnât take notice regardless, too engrossed in the foreign treat of your new world.Â
The next few hours are filled with you making conversation, mostly one sided but you donât even seem to notice. Youâre the most at ease person Mattheo has ever met, finding interest in the smallest of things.
You talk about your family, and you do so with so much admiration and what Mattheo can only assume is love that he finds himself starting to get jealous. He does his best to shove that feeling down, like he does with most feelings. Youâre the first person in his life that doesnât seem to know him, his family, what that entails and heâd be damned if he let something like jealousy mess that up.
You try to ask him about his life, but heâs keeping it brief, somewhat deflective. He tells you that his father is not around, not dead butâŠworking. He doesnât know a good way to explain that his father has bits of his soul everywhere and your lack of knowledge on magical existence seems like that bit of information would cause your already highly wired brain to short circuit.
When you ask about his mum he stiffens involuntarily, âSheâs, erm, passionate about me following in my fatherâs footsteps. Bit of an anger problem sometimes if I disagree about it.â You nod, a small frown on your face but seemingly understanding to not push the subject of his mothers anger further, âWhatâs your dad do?â
Mattheoâs eyes go wide, panic starting to spread through his body. He can feel himself starting to sweat as he looks out the window, trying to come up with an answer thatâs not the truth when he sees his saving grace, âLook, Hogwarts.âÂ
If youâd had turned your head any faster Mattheo was sure it would have rolled off your shoulders and onto the car floor. Whatever he had anticipated Hogwarts to look like, his imagination could never have done it justice; and Mattheo hid in his imagination often at home.
Your nose was nearly pressed to the window, âWicked.â Mattheo felt the corners of his mouth pull into a smile, half wishing the two of you never had to leave the train and could just stay here, in this bubble where you donât know the horrible truths that come with being associated with him.Â
As the train slowed to a stop, a whistle blew and the two of you noticed a flurry of students starting to clog the aisle between cars. âGuess thatâs our cue,â you stood up, looking towards Mattheo and waiting for him to do the same. âYou coming?â you opened the car door, looking back at him. âErm, yeah. Yeah okay,â Mattheo pulled the hood of his cloak up and you gave him a curious look.
âHeard itâs supposed to be a bit chilly on the ride up to the castle,â he shoved his hands in his pockets, now staring down at the floor. You shrugged it off, only turning to join the plethora of students once you knew Mattheo was following behind.Â
You couldnât help but marvel at the giant man that led the pack of first years to what looked like ancient wooden boats. You looked everywhere you could, trying to drink in the whole experience; whereas Mattheo kept his head down, hood up and eyes on the bottom of the boat. If he did this long enough, maybe no one but you would know who he was until he was being sorted.
Once docked by the castle the pack of you were led through the castle by an older, stern looking witch. She had introduced herself as Professor McGonagall. As she led you through the castle you kept tugging on Mattheoâs sleeve. Every so often he would peek from the side of his hood and give you a half smile.Â
Once in front of what you learned to be the Great Hall, McGonagall stopped all of you, giving a quick speech. âOnce inside you will all be sorted into your houses. Once your house has been announced please make your way to your house table. Banners above will lead you to the correct one. During each breakfast and lunch you will be able to mingle with other houses. However, dinners are strictly restricted to your own house tables.â You turned to Mattheo, whispering, âThis is so exciting!â Mattheo gives an undignified hum with a small nod as the doors to the great all open, he can feel his heart rate quicken as all the older students turn to watch the group of first years file in. Will people notice him? Can he hear them whispering his name?Â
His automatic negative thoughts are interrupted by you gripping his arm lightly. Immediately he flinches away and you begin apologizing, âOh, Iâm sorry Matty, I didnât mean to scare you.â Mattheo shook his head, hoping his cheeks weren't flushing at the nickname you decided to don on him, âN-no, sorry. Sâjust I- erm, have this thing about people grabbing meâŠsorry.â
You shake your head as if to dismiss his apology as unnecessary, âSâmy fault, I just get so excited. Look up there, itâs the sorting hat, I read about it in the same textbook as the houses; thatâs whatâs gonna tell us where we go.âÂ
Mattheo could feel his stomach knotting. He knew he would be sorted into Slytherin; the blood in his veins guaranteed it. But, Merlin, did he hope you were sorted there too. It would be nice to have an actual friend there with him, not just his irritating cousin and the sons of his fatherâs loyal followers.
He was pretty sure they were only nice to him out of fear. Did you want to get sorted with him too? Did you consider him a friend? You were already far too nice to him; far too nice for your own good he thought. Thereâs no way you actually got sorted into Slytherin; itâd be a bloody miracle.Â
Too lost in his worries spinning over and over in his head he seemed to have missed everyone before him getting sorted, being pulled from his thoughts for the second time that evening by Professor McGonagalls booming voice speaking his name, âMattheo Riddle.â
A hushed whisper seemed to fall over all of the students and even some of the professors at the head table. Mattheo gave you a worried glance, but you only smiled encouragingly back at him. Either you didnât notice the whispers, or you didnât care; Mattheo wasnât sure which option had him feeling that same weird pang in his chest that he felt on the train.Â
He neednât push his way through the crowd of first years as they seemed to part willingly for him. He slowly climbed his way up the steps and pulled himself up onto the stool, legs dangling in front of him. The professor placed the sorting hat atop his head.
It felt two sizes too big, falling down and covering his eyes, now encasing him in darkness. It was actually much better this way, Mattheo would rather pass than watch the judgment in everyoneâs eyes, especially if they came from yours. âHmm, Riddle, eh?â the hat spoke loudly, much to Mattheoâs dismay, âWell thereâs simply no question then is there. Why of course it'sâŠSLYTHERIN!âÂ
The slytherin table broke out into cheers, but they seemed to be the only students to do so apart from your clapping in the first year crowd. The hat was pulled from Mattheoâs head and he searched for your face. He found you beaming, giving him a double thumbs up as he made his way down the steps and toward his house table.
He clocked his cousin Draco immediately, platinum hair sticking out like a traffic cone. His cousin tried to greet him, along with the others at the table. But Mattheo ignored them all, turning instead to face the stool you would soon be sitting at and be told your fate.Â
When your name was finally called Mattheo sat up straighter, nearly leaning forward as if that would help him hear more clearly. As you made your way onto the stool you looked over at the Slytherin table. Making eye contact with Mattheo you gave a quick wave. Warmth spread throughout his body and he found himself giving a small wave back.
The whining pitch of Dracoâs voice appeared on Mattheoâs right, âWho is that, cousin?â Mattheo watched as you took a deep breath in as the hat was placed on your head, full of pride he made the statement, âThatâs my friend.â Draco was obviously confused, âI didnât know you had any friends besides us.â
Mattheo turned his sights away from you briefly to stare Draco in the eyes, âYouâre not my friend. Youâre my cousin, Iâm forced to be around you. And if you keep talking Iâll hex out your tongue so I never have to hear your annoying voice again.â Draco held his hands up in defense, scooting over slightly on the bench.Â
Turning back to you Mattheo watched as your legs bounced excitedly, just as they did on the train and Mattheo found himself smiling. This smile slowly dropped as the hat began to narrate the internal battle you seemed to be having with it.
âYou want to be Slytherin, is that so? MmmâŠcurious, curious indeed. I do sense a bit of cunning, but your loyalty is much stronger. Better beâŠHUFFLEPUFF!â The tables throughout the hall cheered for you as they did every other student being sorted. Your smile never faded but Mattheo felt like his whole world was collapsing.Â
There was a pain in his side that felt like someone was hexing him with a stinging jinx and his breaths were becoming more shallow. Usually he only felt like this when being punished by his mother, but in that case she was likely actually cursing him.
It seemed like the massive walls of the great hall were closing in on him as he saw you being greeted by the students at your house table. Everything from the last few hours was going to be thrown away in an instant. They would all tell you who he was, what he was, why you should hate him. And surely youâll believe them, wonât you? Then heâll be alone once more.
As if to twist the knife that was already being pushed between his ribs, Dracoâs irritating voice was coming from next to him again, âWell cousin, guess theyâre not your friend any longer.â

I started reading beastars so now HE's reading beastars .wait
THEY'RE reading beastars
#nobody gets a prize for correctly guessing which character yakumo relates to most#when the anime first came out and everybody hopped on the hype train#i scratched my chin thoughtfully and wondered.... would i like this? it seems like i would like this. should i watch it?#and all my friends around me said 'nah you'll probably hate it. it's really sad'#so i trusted them and ignored beastars the whole time. until now. when i saw the entire series at my LOCAL LIBRARY!!!!#so of course the curiosity wins out and i start reading it and i REALLY LIKE IT?? WTF WERE MY FRIENDS ON ABOUT?#this is sad yes but most of the time it's FUNNY? and also ANIMALS R COOL? bruh. i can't trust my friends' opinions of me anymore#anyway. due to the nature of my current nuca fixation timing. i kept thinking of it while reading#drawing parallels that may only exist in my mind LOL#i can imagine yaku being a freak over legoshi and his quest to become strong but not falling to his instincts and etc.etc.#yakugaru having a manga reading session in either o their bedrooms... lying on the floor engrossed in beastly tales...#these two would absolutely have a debate about which chara is most similar to eiden#to yaku it is obvs haru but i feel like garu would see eiden in a less.... prey sort of way#or maybe they'd agree on the haru comparison!! but yaku might hesitate to voice the 'mr eiden... has to be protected...' thoughts#and garu would proudly proclaim how eiden and haru share traits like bravery/outgoingness/super cool and go-getter/wise and worldly???#i kept staring down louis like.... you're some mix of dante and edmond... and something else....#UGH i like all the characters... they all have their charms.... they are all such creatures#honestly yahya the entire time was just relatable content and after seeing the way he lived out the rest of his life *chef's kiss* GOALS#nu carnival yakumo#nu carnival garu

well that was lovely. i love that we got to see them so long after the finale, after they've mellowed and settled into their relationship and their dynamic.
tongrak has come so, so far. he could barely confess his love to mahasamut in ep 10, and now we see him completely unashamed about being head over heels for mahasamut. there wasn't a single instance of denial or embarrassment about his love and desire for and eagerness to be with mahasamut - even when vie straight up accused him of having a kink for angry!mahasamut, his response isn't denial but "are you psychic". oh, how safe he must feel in this relationship to be able to fly so freely with this after everything we saw in the series, because to show this kind of devotion must feel so vulnerable.
and i love that mahasamut truly gets to be true to himself. i love that he still gets to do what he cares about; gets to live on the island, continue working, presumably take care of all the people on the island he protects and provides for. i also really love that tongrak never at any point dismisses the importance of mahasamut's work (which would be so easy to do by arguing that tongrak's rich enough that mahasamut probs doesn't actually need to work). but he knows that mahasamut loves what he does, and loves the island and the people so he's never dismissive of it.
and its so beautiful how they accomodate each other into their lives. mahasamut just spoils him so much and is so enamoured by everything tongrak does but there's subtle, more hidden things too, like how he knows tongrak likes things neat and tidy so he makes sure their home is neat before he comes back; how he knows tongrak was secretly enjoying his time with vimook even though he also wanted to rush back to mahasamut. he plans to take tongrak out to the sea because he notices a pattern of tongrak only settling after he's been to the sea even before he learns why tongrak loves the sea. and tongrak wanting to run back to mahasamut's side finishing his work early so he could but not pushing for mahasamut to come back with him, learning to cook for mahasamut, looking at furniture but refusing to buy it until he discusses it with mahasamut even though it's his money. like this is such a stable, loving, considerate relationship. they think of the other person and genuinely want what's best for the other even if it's not necessarily their preference.
i also love that as much as mahasamut's very 'dom' coded to tongrak's 'sub', there's glimpses of their true ages in moments like when mahasamut asks tongrak to "just see me off like this from time to time" and tongrak's face just softens into this overwhelming fondness and he kisses mahasamut on the forehead. mahasamut asks for so, so little but somehow tongrak's reaction shows us that he holds those instances with the reverence and adoration they deserve.
their love is so deep and sweet and tender and lovely and warm and i'm so grateful we got this.
fortpeat's performances were breathtaking. i'm desperate for a gif of mahasamut looking at tongrak as he turns away with the sparkler to kick at the water because fort captured 'besotted' beautifully in that 1 second (screenshots don't quite capture it somehow). it really felt like they immersed themselves fully into the roles, like there wasn't even really any awkward moments or interactions that made me second guess that they were 2 people very much in love and very, very sure of the other's love for them.
#love sea#love sea the series#mutrak#rakmut#tongrak x mahasamut#tongrak#mahasamut#i'm so sad its over because i really haven't been captivated by any other actors#fortpeat just made everything so wonderful#love sea the series meta#rambles about shows i'm watching#<my posts>

truly love how slowly but surely every companion is turned into a spineless doormat so as not to offend the fragile egos of the lowest common denominator of their playerbase or inconvenience them ever so slightly đ
#larian has zero integrity when it comes to their own characters and story#it's just sad to witness at this point lmao#i can't believe they 'fixed' gale getting upset over the player denying him useless junk items#which was already nerfed so horribly from ea to the point of where it undermines his story#when he's literally dying slowly and in pain#gale has a list of bugs that render his romance almost unplayable#and this is the absolute non-issue that gets 'fixed'#ch: gale dekarios#vg: baldur's gate 3#series: baldur's gate#text: personal#bg3 critical#larian critical

Loz fandom stop being angsty and give the daydreaming kids on big fun adventures with a cool glowing sword some actual whimsy and joy challenge
#It's like the happy media equals angsty fandom and vice versa but like. Video game series about the dreams and adventures of childhood with#A fandom full of angst and abandonment and depression and smut#It's why I don't really stay in the loz fandom long each time I circle back around#There's so much potential for good things and comfort and snuggly warmth and lightheartedness.#Like yeah messed up things happen in front of and to link but kids are resilient beasts and most importantly they fix it#He's literally wearing the Peter pan hat to invoke that sort of eternal wonder that's the DESIGN of the hat that's why it's so identifiable#Fanart captures it a lot. The gorgeous landscapes and quiet moments and dappled sunlight#But fics???? Oh lu fics are just full of miscommunication and resentment and sour interactions and pain and simmering anger#I prefer to read trusted authors because it's so wearing but the problem is you have to go out and find them lol#It's a very controversial belief of mine that every link enjoyed their adventure even if it was scary or sad and would not be averse to#Another. Oh the circumstances they might hate. But link has never been one to refuse the call#That's the POINT they stepped up when the adults couldn't it's their COURAGE that they'd be fastest to volunteer.#Unrelated but post game botk is adhd central you can do literally whatever you want and whatever pace and you just drift around getting#Distracted and teleporting all over and setting challenges and poking around every nook and cranny#Like botw I had over 300 koroks and 98% map completion. I maxed out hero's path twice over. Totk I've just been wandering around#Speed farming lynels like 17 different goals drifting from one to the other as I wish. Still missing the last 2 sage orbs NO idea where#There's like a million hinoxs now tf#loz#legend of zelda#lu#linked universe#ao3

Itâs how the kids âraisedâ by Tony are all affected differently as adults.
Babe, who believes his life is only worthwhile because of his special senses and skills. Who pretends to not need love but is longing for it. Who thinks that he cannot be loved because he is unworthy of love.
Charlie, who believes his life is worth less than other peopleâs and would rather sacrifice himself than see others suffer. Who thinks he shouldnât be loved because it will put the people who love him in danger.
Jeff, who believes his life threatens anyone who knows his abilities, so he keeps everyone at an armâs length away. Who thinks he cannot be loved because it will only lead to hurt and frustration.
Pete, who managed to escape Tonyâs grip, but is still entangled in his web. Who saved himself and is now desperate to help others do the same. Who hasnât given love a chance because heâs still only relying on himself.
Way, who believes he can force love if he tries hard enough. Who never considers life beyond Tonyâs influence because he doesnât think such a future is possible. Who is desperate for love but doesnât realize that he is already loved and surrounded by a family of his own.
Kenta, who believes that if he does everything Tony asks of him, he will be loved. Who doesnât understand that a man like Tony does not love but only uses. Who has lived in exile for so long that heâs lost sight of love and only knows loyalty.
Itâs how they are all survivors and how they learn through the course of the show what love is and what it isnât. And that they are capable and deserving of love despite what they were taught as children.
#at work but still thinking about the vroom vroom omegaverse show#oops#itâs because#the characters in pit babe are so good!!#I love a good character-driven story#Iâm sad itâs over#pit babe#pit babe the series#pit babe meta#thai bl#babe x charlie#charlie x babe#babecharlie#charliebabe#jeff x alan#alan x jeff#jeffalan#alanjeff#pete x way#pete x kenta#itsybitsybabbles
