no ones ever let me break my own heart like you did . . .
the diary in my head.
can I just say how heartbreaking it is that Halsin continuously doubts someone could love him? when he says "my heart does not stir lightly... but it does now" he actually has to take a moment to breathe and close his eyes. like he's scared to admit it. like once he opens his eyes, the PC will be gone. even during his romance scene, you have to encourage him that this was what you wanted and that when he goes into wildshape and back into his regular form, PC tells him "it's okay, now come here" like he's TERRIFIED of scaring the PC because he rambles and apologizes profusely.
and when you solo romance him/decide to leave with him post brain, he tells you in the epilogue:
"Yet you chose me", like he STILL can't believe pc could've picked him over ANYONE SIX MONTHS LATER. This man wants to be loved but STRUGGLES to believe it once someone actually loves him and it's so heartbreaking. He's just a gentle giant. (also thank you @autistichalsin bc you've encouraged me to start analyzing Halsin with your posts)
I was sitting there through that scene wondering why they were getting all emotional. Like “chill he’s just going back a couple of hours it’s fine” and he goes back years. Like ok wow that was unnecessary but at least you can save people who died (Draal). And then he went and made Toby trollhunter. Why was that needed? I get you wanted him to be protected but you’re just putting him on the front lines again, except now he’s at the very front. And he has a target on his back
