so I know everyone is really into the Soren and Corvus dynamic rn, which, valid; romantic or platonic, they're hilarious
but I feel like people are forgetting the gem that was the Corvus & Opeli dynamic
Ezran fucks off to the mountains for an adventure with zero prior planning. Corvus pats Opeli on the shoulder as she stares at the letter
Opeli disses the hell out of a foreign diplomat and Corvus stands there nodding along like "yeah. tell them, Opeli." (or, sometimes: standing there, brain empty, but still supporting her.)
Corvus and Opeli often share an exasperated look when the rest (especially Soren) decide to do something vaguely stupid, because unfortunately they're supposed to be the responsible ones here
and of course, they're the Ezran protection duo™.

I'm declaring today a National Appreciate Opeli Day!!!
Poor Opeli has to watch a child king who just wants to talk with animals.
Ezran is very smart and though his speech during Claudia and Ibis's fight was one of the most powerful animated scenes I've seen, Opeli is sorta the one running the kingdom.
Ezran doesn't know what taxes are or anything business related, so guess who that gets shoved onto.
Opeli.
Opeli is one of the most under-rated characters I've ever seen..... so GOOD JOB OPELI!!!
(The infamous scene in the graphic novel)

Opeli: High Mage, we arrested the assassin behind King Harrows death. We found him wandering around the castle eating jelly tarts.
Callum: Release my father-in-law.

While people in the castle call Callum “High Mage” and “Prince” pretty interchangeably, there’s one moment where I think it mattered.
When Callum confronts Opeli, she initially calls him “High Mage,” as though to suggest they are co-equals in the castle. She can push back and not release Rayla because she can just debate him as though he’s just a fellow advisor to the King.
Tumblr media
But when Callum refuses to back down, she switches to calling him “Prince,” as though ceding to his authority in this situation and letting him take control of the situation.
Tumblr media
Which is a pretty subtle and powerful moment, because it shows that Callum is both. He’s the mage advisor to King Ezran, and he’s also a royal in his own right as well. After he spent most of Arc 1 thinking it had to be one or the other, he was able to become both.

Opeli: she was hiding a weapon
Callum: yeah you know that is literally not a noteworthy observation about Rayla

Rayla teaching Ezran to do silly and not-so-king-likely stuff is an absolute yes for Soren and I, and a no for Opeli

Corvus, joining the crown guard: I know nothing about court rules, but if Opeli says to fuck someone up, I fuck someone up. 👍

The Dragang found family is like:
Soren carrying Ezran up to bed when he falls asleep somewhere else, Callum braiding Rayla’s hair when she’s had a bad day (even when she’s too shy to ask), Rayla tearing up when Ezran is finally taller than her and she has to look up to talk to him, Callum tucking Ezran into bed and waiting for him to fall asleep sometimes rubbing his back or arms if he’s stressed out, Soren and Rayla eventually tearfully opening up to each other about all the abusive behaviors and screwed up things that happened in their upbringing and bonding over mutual understanding, Callum and Rayla comforting each other when they wake up screaming and crying from nightmares, Callum constantly drawing Rayla and his breath catching in his throat in awe a little when he sees her in a dress for the first time, Rayla making little flower crowns for Ezran and him wearing them just because, Ezran stealing jelly tarts from the kitchen and Soren going along with him just for the fun of it, Rayla and Soren brutally roasting each other and flipping each other off while Opeli stares gasping in shock at this “improper behavior” but everyone else around is trying to hide their laughter, Rayla sleeping curled against Callum’s chest some nights, Callum and Rayla doing the stupidest harmless best friend shit for no reason and Opeli just rolling her eyes, Callum telling Ezran about the memories he has of their mother, having little picnics in the gardens outside the palace on some warm days, Callum wiping his thumbs lovingly over Rayla’s markings, Ezran crawling into their bed after he has a bad nightmare and promptly falling asleep cuddled in between them, Rayla and Soren sparring together routinely, Callum and Rayla running their fingers through each others hair and sometimes running their fingers through Ezran’s curls, Rayla and Ezran teasing Callum about something “inappropriate” and watch him get bright red and start sputtering which sends them off into peels of laughter at his awkwardness, Rayla doing the girlfriend pout (not that she would even need to do this, lets be so real right now 😅) and Callum giving her the last bite of his food, Callum and Ezran just randomly crying together sometimes over their father passing, Rayla telling Ezran stories about the Silver-grove trying not to let her voice crack but Ezran noticing anyway, giving Soren random hugs when he feels lonely or misses Claudia, Callum closing his eyes and turning away sometimes as Ezran gets older and pretending for a moment that his dad is still there, Ezran sitting behind a pillar in the ballroom and watching Callum and Rayla slow-dance and pretending for a minute he’s watching his mom and dad, sitting around the fire enjoying each others company, Callum and Rayla immediately knowing when something is wrong with the other person and learning communication together, Soren giving Ezran unsolicited first kiss/first date advice, Soren light-heartedly teasing Callum about his disastrous first kiss, Callum taking Ezran’s crown off on hard days and kissing the top of his head where it rests, everybody laughing uncontrollably about something that is not funny at all in the middle of horrendous stress and sleep-deprivation and that only makes it more funny. Shooting looks to kill anyone who’s crossed lines and hurt one of them. That fierce protective streak they all carry for each other. Holding each other while they sob not caring about the tears falling all over them. Sending each other pointed glances and smirks from across tables full of fancy dignitaries. Finding pretty flowers and giving them to each other just because.
 Impulsive hugs. Forehead kisses. Draping blankets over each other. Curling up on each others laps. Leaning heads on each others shoulders. Late night whispers. Tearing up with joy at milestones..
Everybody reaching for each others hands in tough moments and gently squeezing as reminders of their presences, and sometimes just doing for no reason other than closeness and security and comfort and to just, hold each others hands.
I love you’s. Lots of them. Heartfelt and sincere and emotional and naturally and full of unconditional love. After bad days, after good days, after heavy conversations, after fun times, just random I love you’s so nobody forgets how loved they are despite all they’ve lost.
This is found family ❤️.

Callum: Rayla and I are friends. Best friends. We love each other but we’re not destined to be together.
Opeli: Okay then here’s a list of potential suitors I think you may—
Callum: What? No I’m not marrying anyone but Rayla.
