I love my unconventional found families brought together by unlikely circumstances

Close enough welcome back Camilla Hect

[hadalzonee]

ending of nona the ninth got me like

[direquail]

I think we don’t give Camilla Hect enough badass credit for making the vengeful eldritch soul of the earth do physical therapy and DBT exercises. she’s like the meme of Eddie Brock asking for two bagels when Venom says they want to eat the souls of the innocent. and then she snuggled with her at night.

sentences that send me into a coma that i never recover from

[tiffanyachings]

a vital and frequently overlooked aspect of cam's relationship with pal is the fact that her boundaries with him are like. i can accept collecting 96 fragments of your exploded skull, painstakingly glueing them back together, letting your soul move into my body, nearly bleeding out as a result, getting stabbed in service to you, bleeding out again and still offering you another spoonful of blood. but i draw the LINE at letting you write hardcore erotica with my hands

[longearedhare]

thinking abt the subtle yet overwhelming body horror and dysphoria present in Nona the Ninth. I’m not even talking about Ianthe piloting around Naberius’s corpse or Kiriona’s whole. thing.

it’s the subtler shit. imagine you’re Pyrrha. you’re lying awake in bed on a doomed wasteland of a planet and you’re in your dead best friend’s body. in the next room is a kid, and you have no idea who she actually is. she eats pencils and she’s physically weak but when she’s mad she will break her own bones over and over just to communicate her rage. you kind of have feelings for two people living in the same body, and that very situation is killing that very body. You shave your dead best friend’s face every day. You will never have your own body back.

i love when characters get angry when they're frightened. shelter dog characters. i love when they bite, not able to tell the difference between a hand that feeds and a hand that strikes. there is no difference. a hand is a hand is a fist. i love characters that are deemed unadoptable. unlovable.

and i love when someone loves them. i love when someone sits with them, patient. they don't flinch at the snarling and snapping. they're not trying to fix it—there's nothing to be fixed. this is you, all of you, and ill wait. because one day, one day you'll take the treat. go on, draw my blood. spit and curse and rage. you're safe with me. one day, you'll feel safe with me.

If my queen and kin now count me as foe, so be it. I prefer to battle to my dying breath than dwell in deceit.

re: mol calling the other tiefling kids "her kids"

no fr like every time i have that dialogue with her i cry real tears because she's not even that much older than the other kids are and she's made herself their protector because she feels like she's the only one that can do it. it breaks my heart every time

Legitimately every time I have the Raphael talk with her i get misty eyed frfr

Player: Trust me, it might sound good but it's not worth it. Mol: Easy for you to say - you can do what you want, go where you want. My kids need protecting, and I'm going to protect 'em.

Player: And what happens to the current head of the Guild? Mol: I dunno, devil stuff? What matters is I can keep my kids safe. Everyone else's let them down, but I won't.

^ These lines in specific really get me man, the conviction in her words. There is no try, she is going to keep her kids safe no matter what, even if it means making a deal with a devil.

modern au laezel my beloved

[beaft]

characters who view themselves as tools/weapons first and people second... characters who martyr themselves for a cause because they think that's the only way they can be worth something... characters who push themselves past their breaking point again and again and again... characters for whom devotion and masochism are inseparable... characters whose self-sacrifice becomes self-annihilation...... what was my point again? i had a point. anyway.
