Leola’s last wish

I wish that even in the dark

Sad

Afraid

Alone

that every child should know…

You are loved

[jedidragonwarriorqueen]

they're twelve

The funniest thing about The Dragon Prince,

is that the only thing keeping the show from being a 13+ series,

is Gren, and him refusing to translate Amaya's profanity.

Bro is literally holding the target demographic in his hands.

I was obviously absolutely blown away by the reunion kiss and hug BUT i also want everyone to notice the casual intimacy between ruthari because it melts my heart 🥺🥺

From the way they're frequently holding hands like it's the most natural thing for them...

Through Ethari gently laying his hand on Ru's shoulder to comfort him (and himself)...

To the way he's gently chastising him with his elbow, like in bloodmoon huntress!! 🥹🥹

[sapphoismymuse]

the writers really said “sorry for the rayllum temporary breakup angst” and then gave us an entire season of rayllum kissing and being sappy as fuck

[argonblue]

One thing abt this ship and the moon fam that absolutely kills me is how Ethari always knew what he was getting himself into. He knew when he married runaan that he might send off his husband for the last time. He probably knew when they started dating. And that never stops him from loving Runaan with reckless abandon.

I do not care about Karim at all and I am not at all sad that he’s dead.

I am however pretty sad that Janai had to watch both of her siblings die in the exact same place, killed by the exact same man, unable to do anything to save either of them.

We’re finally getting Callum vs Claudia mage battle!!!

[throneofrayllum]

I wish we could've seen what Rayllum living with Ruthari had been like...so, here's some headcannon's about what they got up to during those two weeks:

Runaan wanted Callum on the couch. Rayla told him it didn't matter because "Callum and I have already slept together! What's the difference?!" to which Runaan responds, ""The difference is that it's under my roof!" Callum's dying inside during the whole conversation. When Runaan and Ethari wake to Rayla curled up on the couch with Callum, Runaan lets it go and allows Callum to sleep in Rayla's bedroom.

The first few days of Rayla being back in the Silvergrove, some of the elves give her dirty looks or y'know talk behind her back VERY LOUDLY. Callum will not have any of it. When people glare, he glares back. When people talk shit, he shuts it down. Rayla tells him he doesn't have to, that she can handle herself. Callum knows she can, but she's his partner, he wants to protect her.

Rayla cries when she sees her room. It's exactly as she left it. Ethari tells her he didn't have the heart to tidy the room up. He tells her and Runaan how he would lay down on her bed with her stuffed animal when he missed her most.

Runaan and Ethari kick Rayllum out a lot. I mean, what do you expect? They've been separated for so long, they need to make up for lost time.

The Silvergrove throws a party in honor of Runaan's return. Callum becomes accustom to Moonshadow culture. Rayla is so excited for Callum to learn about Moonshadow dancing. Ethari and Rayla have a couple father/daughter dances (dancing was always their thing when she was little). Rayla feels like a little girl again with her father spinning her around.

At the party, Callum finds that he likes Moonshadow wine much more than Katolian wine. He also gets to see what a drunk Rayla is like (she's adorable), and deal with a hungover Rayla the next day.

One of my favorite choices of s7 actually comes from a single sentence.

"I can't be your high mage anymore, but I'll always be your brother"

The decision for Callum to step down from his position as high mage originally made me kind of upset but I realized that it actually makes a lot of sense. And Callum's decision to step down was actually a very mature choice, and not a rash one made in haste like I originally mistook it for. And I think that for both ez and callum's sake, he shouldn't be high mage.

Something that I noticed in episode 2, is that when Callum and ez are talking ez says "I didn't ask for this, I'm just a kid." The part about this sentence that strikes me is that ezran says that he is a kid, he had every right to say "I was just a kid" but he used present tense because he is very much a child, and he still wants to be a child. Before he was king, Callum was just his brother. It's hard for ez and Callum to see each other as brothers when they also have such official titles as children. Soren and Corvus can have loyalty to king Ezran, but Callum should have loyalty to Ez. Ez wants Callum to be his brother.

Callum being high mage causes a lot of problems. When Callum tries to follow Rayla after her fight with Ezran, Ezran tells him to stop and stay at the council meeting. He calls Callum "high mage" and because Callum has such an official position and title he has to listen, he has to stay. If Callum was just his brother then Ezran's commands as king honestly hold less weight and consequence to Callum, and that's how it should be, Ezran should be his baby brother, not king.

Siblings are always in a situation in which they could hurt each other, with their titles they are in even more position to hurt each other. If Ezran is king then he has the power to throw Callum and Rayla in jail and have them followed and tracked. If Callum is high mage then he has the power to stop Ezran and his soldiers with force.

It's also easier for Callum and Ezran to give each other advice as brothers.

I also think that being high mage kind of takes the fun out of magic for Callum. Which is understandable, if writing was my official job instead of my passion I don't know how much I'd enjoy it either. It's clear that Callum doesn't enjoy being in council meetings that much, episode 2 is the second time we see him not paying attention and drawing instead. He also describes his title as 'stuffy' he wants to be mage who does magic, not a high mage.

Callum giving up his title is a good way for both him and Ez to be what they want to be. Mage and child. Brother and brother. I hope that if Callum is high mage again in arc three then it'll be after he's lived some more life with Rayla and he actually wants it

The end

[just-a-fun]

I love how Corvus is a nervous, anxious man, but when Callum tries to tell him "nah, that island was always there", he was sure about what he saw

He was sure that that island was new, and he won't let anybody tell him otherwise

He can be anxious and nervous, but he knows he is goddam good at his job

[crystaleclipse10]

well i guess it makes sense with Zym being the last archdragon, who can all talk, but this was so unexpected 😭😂
