okay. whatever.
grian's wings are clipped, have been clipped for a very, very long time. clipped so long he forgets how it felt to soar. who or what clipped them is a mystery.
jimmy's wings are damaged beyond repair. they can never fly, no one knows if he ever got a chance to use them. he wears braces on them so he can at least move them, just a little bit, to fold behind his back.

My pf 0 rizz wizard acquired a surprise gf and it's just??? Girlfriend???? Gorlfriend?????
The we are not friends I'm using you for political connections at this prestigious wizard university because you're nobility and also a Magus (wizard jock) and I think you're an easy target and a little dull -> wow you've considered me a friend this whole time and I've been an ass and also in hindsight you WERE the closest thing I had to a friend in wizard academia -> I only realize this after I break your trust by lying to your face about using you for political gain -> spending time with good hearted adventurers and not my asshole wizard master makes me realize that people normally have emotions beyond just blind ambition??? And maybe guilt is a thing and I need to learn how to be apologetic and not just a neutral selfish wizard post grad??? -> fumbles every single apology because she has had no connections outside of elf politics in a decade -> this pitiful attempt at being honest for once is apparently endearing, esp in contrast to all the machinations and manipulations -> leads to masquerade dancing even with two left feet and a dropped pair of glasses and every other cliche
There's another date??? Squeezed in amongst the political intrigue??? I'm????
Our himbo paladin is also flirting with a murderess ron swanson-esque dwarf and it is. So good.

Life Series Solar System- a Winner's Symbolism Ramble
So we all know the winners of a life series get assigned space motifs, right? We've got sun, stars, and moon solidly covered. What about the planets?
I'm Mleem, I go feral about symbolism in an unscripted block people series, and here's the list of which lifer I would assign to each of the planets. This list does not contain all lifers. I do not have ideas for all lifers. I have planets and I'm a space nerd.
MERCURY- SCAR
All planets but Earth are named after Roman deities. Some domains of the god Mercury include trickery, thievery, and commerce. Sound like anyone? GoodTimesWithScam himself is right at home with all of that. It's also the closest planet to the sun [gestures at desert duo] and its very high temperature seems fitting for HotGuy.
VENUS- SKIZZ
Venus is the goddess of love. Love is stored in the Skizz. He's been the kindest person throughout his series, and puts his love for his friends over all else. Plus, Heart Foundation. Venus as a planet, however, is an extremely brutal and deadly place, just like how Skizz can easily succumb to bloodlust. He may be loving, but he is not harmless.
EARTH- GEM
Gem is extremely associated with nature, with her cottagecore aesthetic being one of the reasons. But Gem also embodies the darker parts of nature- she is deadly and predatory. She is life in all its parts, fitting for our living planet. She's also a great duo with Pearl, our local moon!
MARS- MARTYN
Listen, I know Martyn's cosmic motif is debated, but I really think Mars fits him. First off, his name means "devoted to mars". Secondly, the hand of dogwarts and the victor with the most brutal win works very well with the planet named for the god of war.
JUPITER- IMPULSE
The biggest planet, named for a god of storms and lightning. Electrical impulses, perhaps? True to its name, Jupiter is a stormy planet, with its very well-known Great Red Spot being a storm that never stops. Seems fitting for the guy who never, ever lets a grudge go. Also, fun fact- Jupiter has a nearly identical composition to that of a star. And they're both Scotts.
SATURN- BDUBS
Yes, I know he built the earth, but hang on a second. While Saturn, in Roman mythology, is most well known for. uh. something horrible, he was also the titan of time. Something Bdubs is very, very associated with. Saturn as a planet is known for it's beautiful rings, which. Just feels very Bdubs to me. Maybe it's the canonical marriage in Double Life.
URANUS- JOEL?
This is the one I'm least certain on. The Joel association is mainly vibes, pulling from the fact that Uranus in mythology was a sky god (the first one, before Jupiter showed up) and so was Joel in Empires. But really, it's mostly because he'd find the name funny. Someone had to be it.
Uranus is also sideways. The planet is on its side compared to everything else in the Solar System. This doesn't help the Joel vibes, I just wanted to mention it.
NEPTUNE- LIZZIE
What better lifer for the planet named after the god of the seas, than the Ocean Queen herself? An incredibly distant planet, and a player that hasn't joined many series, Neptune also has a very interesting trait to its orbital path- very rarely, it will cross that of Pluto, making Neptune the most distant. And that brings us to...
PLUTO- JIMMY
Who else but our canary in the coal mine, first to fall all but once, to take the (dwarf) planet named for the god of the underworld. Death, and the underground. Demoted once-planet with cringefail swag, yet still beloved by many. The furthest away from the center of our solar system, and perhaps thats why he's so vulnerable to dying first. Maybe Lizzie and him crossed orbits, and that's why she fell first instead.
