Apprentice Gilan, turning up in the main tent at the gathering and interrupting the rangers' meeting with a parchment of his battle tactics assignment in his hand:

"Are you finished already?"

"No, I just don't get it."

"Did you read the whole assignment?"

"I did, five bloody times, and it doesn't make any sense because of what the fucking-"

"Language!"

"- left wing does, a bunch of knights would never do that!"

"...imagine they do exactly that."

"Great, then they are done, and I am finished with this assignment because I can think of at least fourteen ways to deal with this right now."

"You cannot barge in through the door like that, Will. I am still a commandant and this is still my office."

"First of all, I barged in through the window this time -"

"Yeah, well, where are the mentors when you need them?"

"..."

"He's standing right behind me, isn't he?"

Every now and then I think of that moment when Cassandra (or it might have been Alyss, I can’t remember) made a comment on how someone could set up a trap for a ranger just by using coffee as bait and Gilan’s response was “and we’d go gladly”. I think of it and think “haha what a funny joke”.

But then I remember how Halt was more offended by the fact that Ferris doesn’t like coffee than the fact that Ferris tried to kill him on multiple occasions. And he was certainly more bothered by the coffee thing than the fact that Ferris stole his birthright.

Or when Will was so ready to kill an innkeeper because the guy didn’t feel like brewing a pot of coffee for him.

I realize just how much Gilan wasn’t joking, is what I’m saying.

Crowley didn't get the chance to see Cassandra as a queen

#i was having such a good day

Could you do a couriers aesthetic?

Couriers

“You’ve trained him (Will) well,” Alyss said, but Halt shook his head. “The training is important. But the qualities have to be there from the beginning. You can’t teach courage and honesty. There’s a basic openness and lack of malice in Will.” “You know,” she said confidentially, “when I was a child, I always said I was going to marry him.” Inwardly, he smiled at her words. When I was a child. She was barely more than a child now, he thought. Then he changed his mind. She was a Courier. A Diplomatic apprentice. She wore the bronze laurel branch and that meant she was very much more than a child. (The Burning Bridge)

a random ranger (it's Gilan) kicking the door to Crowley's office open and going "Crowley, hey, I know it's like midnight, but there's this kid who could make an awesome ranger, but the couriers want him too so like I need your approval right now so I can head right back"

#the kid's name is Lionel #13 yo me thought it would be a great idea to make Gilan an apprentice and 20 yo me agrees #ranger's apprentice #rangers apprentice #Halt nearly chokes on his coffee once he finds out

[araluenstories]

Ok but that scene in Burning Bridge where Gilan is talking about his dad?? I'm gonna cry that's so sweet. He's so proud of his dad. I'd be proud of my dad too. I'm melting we need more people who are proud of their dads

#I LOVE THEIR RELATIONSHIP #BE PROUD OF YOUR DADS!!!

Will, looking at a map: It’s a barren, featureless wasteland out there, isn't it? Halt: Other side, Will…

#awww #these two i swear
