i have a question. on a scale of 1-100 how encouraged is it to climb trees in the silvergrove

It’s a 74 as long as there’s no school, ritual, or chores that you’re skipping out on. If you are, Runaan will find you. He has a very particular set of skills.

Ethari working hard making irl parental controls aka mice

These little things are the cutest and he makes me think of tinker fairy's

I always want to be a blacksmith but then I remember that I would actually have to do blacksmith stuff. And I couldn't just pose sexy with my shirt off all the time :(

[mun voice] It is with a heavy heart that I must tell all you lovely wonderful folks that I will be stepping away from the husband blogs until further notice. I was as delighted as all of you to see Runaan and Ethari find each other and get a second chance at life and love. It is what they deserve, and I'm never going to forget the feeling of seeing them reunite after so long.

But my own heart, my own husband, is very ill again. I don't know how long I will get to keep him - I haven't for years. But things are scary now. Real, and scary. And somehow, after all this time hoping Runaan and Ethari can find each other again, seeing them together is too much for me. It does not comfort me now. I can't relate to such joy and peace.

So I will leave them to my co-muns, and to you. Please take care of them. I hope I will be back in this space someday, but if I can't ever manage it again, know that spending time with you all in Runaan and Ethari's guise has been one of the greatest joys of my life.

Thank you all for being here and sharing this fandom space with me. I love you guys and I wish you the best!

Okay, you can't hide it from me Runaan! When Rayla, you and Ethari heard that little girl say Callum wanted ten children, was that a little smile I saw when you noticed Ethari double over in laughter?

You're so smitten~!

I've missed him so much. I could watch him do anything or nothing at all, and I would still have this foolish old smile on my face. He is my light.

Are you sure it had nothing to do with a similar little incident when we were courting, my shade?

[ask-ethari-anything]

What if it's detached eleven ears

Eleven is an odd number of ears for anyone to have - in both senses. Is it too late to swipe left?

Hi question

What does it mean when a date has a necklace with elven ears

Someone really appreciates the lovely points and curves of an elf ear! It's not quite the same as swirlies, but all elven ears have their own elegance, to me.

I wanted to ask whether the ears were made of silver or gold or a different metal, but it occurs to me that they may still be made of elf. In which case... you may have need of this. *flicks wrist and hands you Runaan's calling card*

[ask-ethari-anything]

Any chance you'll ever let us in on the moonberry surprise secret?

Oh, I couldn't possibly say, love. It's very closely guarded, you see!

Runaan isn't the only dad in this treehouse with secrets...

[ask-ethari-anything]

Can I have a hug?

Of course you may.

[ask-ethari-anything]

Ethari I miss you

-local genderfluid geek

I havena gone anywhere, love. There's just... kind of a lot all at once these days, isn't there? Let's do our best.

[ask-ethari-anything]

I asked Runaan so I’ll ask you too- what’s your favorite stim/stim toy? Do you make them? (I tried making one once and it was really fun but it made me hyper)

I've made many a doodad that feels nice in the hands, love! I admit I'm rather fond of this one, though:

It's good for measuring, cutting, marking, and calculating, but the moons in the middle click for fun reasons, and there's a perfect number 8 in there as well. It represents the Moon's cycle as well as our base counting system, but it rocks back and forth when you press on one side, like a switch to turn the math on with.

What are moonshadow weddings like??

The food will dazzle you with every bite, and the dancing will make you float off the ground - and hobble and wince the next day and decide to stay abed instead!

[ask-ethari-anything]

Do you know about the Baroque theorbo lute? It's so gorgeous! https://youtu.be/eVabz8LneI4

Finally, a lute nearly as tall as I am! Surely I won't knock anything down with it if I spin and dance around as I'm playing it!

[ask-ethari-anything]

Ethari, if I were to tell you that I forget to shower, clean my face, and do the laundry, what would you say/do?

Hypothetically, ofc

Hypothetically, I'd gently remind you that there is always tomorrow for such things, love. The base requirement for each day is simply to survive it. As long as you've done that, there is always tomorrow.

[ask-ethari-anything]

Do you and runaan approve of raylas relationship with Callum?

How could we not? Callum has saved Rayla as many times as she's saved him! And he helped bring my husband back to me - we both owe all our days of future happiness to his bravery and courage.

I see a lot of us in them, and I can only hope they get to be as happy as we have.
