Oh, yeah... for Daemon, Rhaenyra was the epitome of Targaryen perfection, the best he could ever had.

He literally revered her. (...and she revered him)

We have never seen him/heard of him openly worshipping anyone the way he did Rhaenyra. The man sang praises to her every chance he got, declaring her to be the fairest maiden of them all. He never declared anyone else the fairest one...

She was the first and the only woman whose hand he so fervently pleaded for and truly hoped to marry...

And he did not marry anyone else until Rhaenyra had been married off. And EVEN THEN he married the sister of Rhaenyra's husband...

Rhaenyra was the woman he and his new wife continued spending time with all throughout their marriages. She was THE woman Daemon apparently still wanted to marry all throughout the years because he actually married her the first chance he got.

She was the woman Daemon got pregnant either even before Laena's death or right after because it was the very same year Rhaenyra gave birth to Daemon's first son.

Rhaenyra was the ONLY woman Daemon married in the old valyrian blood-magic soul-binding ritual in the tradition of their house, going against all social conventions, against the crown and general appearances...

Rhaenyra was the one he crowned, served, killed for and fought war for. The one he ultimately willingly died for...

Imagine that kind of devotion...

Whenever I read about Daemon praising Rhaenyra's beauty and declaring her the most beautiful woman in all the Seven Kingdoms, this is all I can think of djkxzcw

@fssanctuary summer gift exchange for @quartzs-cluster

From the summer theme I knew early on I wanted to draw a picnic, and with your prompt of "fantasy creature AUs" I decided to make it a fairy picnic, because teeny-tiny picnic sets are adorable. That's probably a napkin they're using as a picnic blanket xD

Hope you've been having a good summer!

"let the flesh instruct the mind" while grabbing louis' ass and pulling him close while they're making hard eye contact was insane actually

they really did have another honeymoon phase in that month or so louis gave lestat all his heart and they lost themselves in each other completely. look at them. they want each other so bad it's SICKENING.........

[riddlerosehearts]

i really need everyone but especially anyone who romanced gale with a bard tav to know about this interaction from early access that larian took from us

[buzzbuzzlittlebees]

the tragedy of merthur is so insane to me. it’s everything. it’s “i will love you in every universe” and “i will love you if it kills me” and “i will love you after you die” and “the love that we shared existed and because of that i will persevere” and “i will stay alive so i can love your memory longer” and “if i ever lost you i would see you in everything” and “i will love you if you hate me” and “i love you in all the ways that i was never loved”

Two types of yappers

What I need is Arthur hugging and kissing Merlin like Merlin will be folding laundry and Arthur just comes up from behind and hugs him. Merlin of course is wondering if Arthur is enchanted more so when he feels lips on the back of his neck—which is sensitive—that he lets out a tiny moan causing both of them to freeze before Arthur starts leaving more kisses on Merlin's nape, his fingers now underneath Merlin's tunic rubbing the slim tummy of his friend.

Merlin is straight up blushing and moaning whilst Arthur is enjoying the sounds he makes that the King decides he wants to do this everyday. So he does.

Merlin is in a constant state of bewilderment and arousal whenever it happens because Arthur has become shameless and enamoured everytime he kisses and embraces Merlin. He doesn't even hide it anymore he'll just grab merlin by the waist, plop the lad on his lap—whilst on the throne—and leave hickeys all over Merlin's neck.

idk what it is but canon couples are always slightly less appealing to me than the ones that aren’t explicity canon. it’s something about picking two characters because you love their dynamic and rooting for them even though you know it probably won’t happen.

Things in my offline life have been (and in many ways continues to be) quite busy, but rest assured these guys still live in my head rent-free.

“I will love you until I am nothing, until I am dust beneath the ground. And wherever you go beyond here, I only ask that the Force lets me go with you.”

finally got around to commissioning another beautiful canonverse artpiece! so here is a scene from the epilogue of my completed fic breaker of chains that the lovely & talented @boomdafunk so graciously crafted—all the tenderness and yearning with the gorgeous backdrop of Naboo is everything a reylo could ask for 🥹

merci du fond du cœur, Alicia 💕
