he lets me hit bc i follow him around like a guard dog and i say stupid shit just to see him smile and i drive way over the speed limit bc he wants to so bad but he never will and i stay up with him when he can’t sleep and we share a carton of orange juice and he looks like a prince in the middle of a dollar general at three in the morning and he leans back on the headrest and the dashboard lights turn his throat green and the bite of possibility is so urgently present i can feel the teeth sinking into my throat and i wonder if mine looks green to him too if he’s even looking and the car is so quiet until he says when i’m gone dream me the world something new for every night and it rips my heart out of my chest because i want him to stay or i want to go with him i just want to be by his side and there are a thousand things i want to say but i don’t say anything i just want him to come back please come back i promise i’ll be better i. where was i going with this
inej using kaz's cane in the middle of a fight and letting kaz use her knives would be pretty neat i think
Taagnus not as endgame but as meeting your high school sweetheart at the reunion and thinking about what could have been.
Like imagine them falling so completely and utterly in love during the stolen century that when they forget each other its a hole in their chests, raw and stinging when prodded so they leave it alone. Then they meet again and the hole is filled? Probably? I mean, it doesn't hurt quite so much and Magnus's heart glows when Taako makes him chicken soup and Taako's chest feels like it's full of something warm and heavy when he tucks under Magnus's arm to watch the stars but Merle...kind of makes them feel that way too so it must just be having friends for the first time in so long.
And then they remember. And it's like...you were my first love. I forgot you. But I didn't really. I loved someone else but I knew how to love them because of you. And I still love you. But...neither of us is the same person. Julia. Sazed. Raven's Roost. Glamor Springs. It's not even about the fact that Taako has Kravitz now. Its...I don't think I could love you the same way any more, even if I had the energy to try. I think too much has happened. I think too much of me has changed.
Like I just think that Magnus will never be ready to love someone like that again, after Julia. Not even Taako. And it's easier to let him be happy with Kravitz than to untangle this mess.
And I think Taako wants uncomplicated, for once in his life. I think he wants to start over, one last time, and for this time to last, instead of 100 years of wiping the slate clean every year.
And on top of all that, one of them is a human and the other is an elf!! It didn't matter when they died and came back every year, but it does now. It all matters now and--
I think they kiss. Once. I think they gain their memories back and they can't fucking help but squeeze each other tight and kiss each other like they're oxygen. I think they cling to each other, because they forgot, and now they remember and its so good to have you back, I missed you even though you were right there almost but not quite.
I think they kiss. And then they look at each other and realize that this part of their lives is behind them. I think they decide, I can love you, but not like this. I want my best friend back. I thought you'd be the only love I'd ever have but look, I found it again! It hurt to lose you,, but I found love without you. But you... I'll never have you again. So let me have you. As a friend. Different, not less.
Taagnus, not as endgame, but as a memory.
i said 'explain physics to me like youre in love with me' and after a while of quiet he went 'everything sings'. so i get it now
2 AM sketch that i may or may not finish someday of that fantasy high scene that never left my mind
The Seven came out a while ago and has already been talked about, but I was so unprepared for the feral feminine energy of this campaign! It’s been so long since I was in a group of girls all excited and screaming over each other and riffing on each others jokes while being wildly inappropriate, and this campaign throws me back to it. It’s so chaotic and delightful and scattered. It feels like watching a loud runaway train that Brennan is trying and only sometimes succeeding to steer.

Something about Greenmantle noticing Adam's potential and ambitions and acknowledging them and complimenting him on them, but still underestimating Adam his abilities, the length he is willing to go to protect his friends
fabian falling for the kind, tall mazey — who tells him she plays the drums when they first meet, whose interest in dance was borne from a love of music and instruments. who has a mellow and softhearted personality that helps ground him, is understanding and supportive even when he doesn’t make the best choices. who cares about who he is as a person - maximum legend or not.
gorgug having a thing for mary ann — who hits him hard the first time they meet, who goes around school nonchalant and self-assured. who frustrates gorgug because she reacts heedless of others, even her party members, and makes her own unaccountable decisions. who, right after gorgug concedes a bit of civility to her, promptly moves onto negging him — which gorgug is secretly down bad for. and that’s… not dissimilar to repeatedly allowing oneself to be chased in a locker room getting swatted with a towel.
metaphorically speaking.
