WAIT omg the Voice of the Smitten as an aromantic who overcompensates. He's not in love with the Princess. He's in love with the idea of loving the Princess, because that's what he's "supposed" to do. He wants so badly to make it work and be in a conventional romantic relationship, and he really does want her to be happy, but he holds the traditional idea that an important part of masculinity is protecting a woman and providing for her and being both her knight in shining armor and her devoted husband. He expresses love weirdly because that's his idea of what love is "supposed" to look like. He doesn't understand romance, but he's fixated on the storybook projection of it, allegory of the cave style, so he leans strongly into that archetype and gets it all wrong. I really think the Smitten just doesn't want to be alone. Poor boy, unlearning heteronormativity and embracing relationship anarchy would've saved you
Thinking about writing shenanigans with Smitten and Cold
Smitten would write the most sappy and fluffy romance stories with happy endings every time. Cold would say that it’s getting predictable of how the story ends every time.
Smitten gets peeved and told Cold to write a romance story himself. Cold takes the challenge.
Smitten reads what Cold has written and lo and behold it’s the most heart wrenching, most antsy love story with pinning and longing that can never be filled.
Smitten cried reading it. He hated admitting that.
i’m so unbelievably normal for your hero and smitten designs if i may request them…. they’re just so GORGEOUS 💘💘
Hello again!!
"She may not be able to hear my voice, but surely she can hear my spirit!"
I had to and I'm not even sorry
I have the theory/headcannon that depressed wife (HEA) tried to k*** herself before TLQ arrived but smitten didn't let her
What people think enemies to lovers smitten looks like:
Smitten x thorn
What It would actually look like:
Smitten x narrator
Ha! I knew it! Your words are no match for the pure strength of our hearts, bound together as one.
I would draw this but I don't have a drawing program or my voice designs figured out yet so have this text post instead
Paranoid, tired: hey, can you deal with your brother for me?
Skeptic: *sigh* what did he do this time?
Paranoid: you'll see *hands Skeptic his script and leaves*
Skeptic, extremely worried as to what he's about to witness:
(for context if you don't know, an update was released replacing Paranoid with Skeptic in HEA)
(and people sometimes refer to Skeptic and Smitten as 'the grey brothers' so)
(also sorry if the dialogue isn't in character)

I have discovered and become obsessed with Slay the Princess. While I cannot draw humans, and so cannot draw the princesses, I am able to draw animals.
So here is my Smitten design !
