#ffxiv #valerianart #alphinaud leveilleur #thancred waters #underexplored relationship imho #nobody talks about it anymore but i dont think you can go through something like that- #spending weeks or more believing youve destroyed your movement #your family #knowing the slaughter and ruin befalling them is due to your own inadequacy #- without it living in you for the rest of your life #you are forgiven #absolved even #but some things cant be washed away

gd things in the hell fic Draf that i’m v v excited to have more publicly chew on but. the comparison between a war-torn society in which soldierdom is passed along biological lines of fathers and sons, and another war-torn society in which journeyman, honoured *full fledged* soldiers train chosen apprentices. and where therefor becomes the line between a son who becomes a soldier and an apprentice who becomes a soldier?  the way reproduction is essential for war to continue, and yet violence itself is inimicable to life. how does the domestic walk into battlefield when every connection you have is through a military organisation, versus how much a civillian were you ever when your father was a soldier? 

#the long form comparison in her between nina and fedyor (most interesting totally underexplored relationship intro'd in the show #imho because... he is not her foster dad! her dad! he's her commanding officer and handler who'se six years older!!!) #and matthias and his own father #i just think. nina and matthias as both soldiers and the way their societies are so parallel. so completely opposite and so much the same #a hartz iz nisht kein meleks trone #take the water prisoner #in general i'm fascinated by writing that blurs the line between martial and domestic issues #anything that breaks the line between The BattleField and the Cozy Hearth Where My Wife Is #and i don't think modern fantasy has done that nearly enough!!!! #my writing #also in other news i heard relay by fiona apple first time today

Marcel my love

MARCELLUS! My almost namesake ❤️

First impression

- HOT. Hi, Dr. Six Pack! 😏😏

Impression now

- I really like Marcel! I think the show didn't do him any favors with the story lines it put him on. He went from being a major player and antagonist, which could've worked so well considering his connection to the family, to being a glorified extra who was always just sort of there, but not really doing anything. But I liked him, think he was super charismatic, his beef with the Mikaelsons was very fair and, again - HOT. 🥵 Marcel is the hottest dude in the TVDu IMHO.

Favorite moment

- Even though the whole premise was kinda dumb, Marcel biting half of the Mikaelsons and kicking them out of town was something I enjoyed on a personal level cause I could NOT STAND THAT FAMILY anymore by that point in the story.

Idea for a story

- Marcel and Bonnie as a power couple in Nola. 😏✨

Unpopular opinion

- I don't know if this is unpopular, but I would've liked TO better if instead of a baby they had explored Klaus and Marcel's relationship instead. The idea that Klaus would've wanted an heir when he was literally about to go to war with the last child he'd cared for was like ???? why ??? you're immortal ????

Favorite relationship

- Elijah, actually! There's a lot of underexplored or badly explored complexity there that got lost in the mess of inconsistent writing that is TO, especially where Elijah's character is concerned.

Favorite headcanon

- ✨Marcel and Rebekah were never together cause it's incest✨

Thank you for the ask, friend! ❤️
