xavier would read booktok recommendations out of curiosity then complain to you about 99% of the mmc (he would be right about most of them)

[rafayelqi]

rafayel’s thoughts 💭💗

[rafayelqi]

i’ve been super ultra mega busy with studies but since i’m already here i have to report everything went more than perfect in this banner 🙂‍↕️

[rafayelqi]

i was thinking about xavier and the fact he’s basically the perfect early 2010s male love interest like come one he’s an immortal prince who travelled through time and space to prevent his lover from being sacrificed, he fits perfectly with the protective, mysterious and tortured love interests we had around those times; he’s the guy everyone takes as aloof but is gentle and attentive with the girl he loves, he’s a strong but also calming presence, he’s heroic and intelligent. back when paranormal and dystopian romance were The Things he would’ve just fit right away.

[rafayelkisses]

Rafayel is dominate but in a way that’s guiding but not authoritative

there are two tropes involving rafayel i see getting thrown around a lot on those headcanon posts and that makes me sure the person writing knows very little about him as a character and i found very funny because not only they’re so repeated by the fandom but they’re also very very out of character for him

the first one is rafayel being ultra codependent of mc, he will be written as complete unable to be far away from her, i’ve even seen people writing him expectating mc to fully abandon her career for him ??????? are we even playing the same game? many of rafayel’s phone/video calls with us are about how both him and mc travel a lot for work and they’re always understandable of eachother duties. you can tell people who think rafayel would make a big thing only reference of him is the nightly stroll bond (or not even the whole scene, only the “jellyfishes are walking naked” quote), one thing is to portrait his as clingy but painting him as a straight up controlling partner is a hard no

the second one is way less problematic than the previous but i’ll complaint anyway: when fans portrait rafayel as being this self-absorbed guy who obsesses about his looks, my personal favorite part of this headcanon is the perception of rafayel being addicted to skincare because he would literally give 0 fucks about it, this is a man who canonically forgets to eat and goes nights without sleeping when he’s too invested with an art project, i think this idea comes from people’s impression of rafayel as the most feminine of the love interests what is bullshit and already complained about here

this headcanon is interested to me because yeah, rafayel is confident about his looks but at the same time he isn’t show caring much about it so the fact the majority of the fandom (or at least the majority of the fandom aside from rafayel mains curated by my algorithm) seems to have this image of him demonstrates how fandom discourse can shape it’s characters into a totally different thing

Hope this reaches the right audience :3

Some Xavier lore because im tired of bitches saying nonsense on TWT.

Xavier respected and respects mc so much he gave up on pursuing a romantic relationship with her, bc he was aware that it could never truly happen. His goal was never to start a relationship.

It was to save the love of his life and hopefully save Philos.

He fully intended to respect the non-interference rule on earth. He never planned to break it, and he never intended to land on Linkon or interfere with her life.

Plus Xavier was already on Earth before mc rebirth...he never knew if she was there or not. Again, what mattered to him was finding a way to save her and Philos.

It was her who chose him. She chose to reincarnate on Earth where Xavier was. She chose to be reborn in Linkon. She even chose unconsciously to live near him.

Most likely knowing he was in that apartment. None of this was coincidence or FATE.

Let's also remind y'all that she was the one who approached him in the classroom. She was also the one who went after him, again and again throughout their story even when he was deliberately avoiding her to respect the non-interference rule and to allow her a peaceful, happy life without him.

Because her love for Xavier transcends time and space. It's deeply etched into her soul. Hence why she keeps on chasing him even when she has no memories of him.

Heck even as a worm she'd end up in his garden.

On Earth, every step toward Xavier was mc's choice.

The only imbalance between them is that MC, unbeknownst to her, has the power to make these “coincidences” happen.

Xavier doesn’t. He has to fight, sacrifice, and run after her, not even sure he will find her, but he doesn't care. He is convinced he will find her, by any means.

MC also guided Xavier through the Deepspace Tunnel leading them to the exact location and era on Earth they should land as a wandering celestial body on the main story.

This was NEVER a story of fate forcing two people together. It’s a story where MC chooses Xavier repeatedly, while Xavier loves her so much he chases relentlessly after her without having a fraction of the same possibilities as her.

They are two beings painfully in love with one another so much they held their middle fingers to Fate and rewrote the stars.

if i see one more person saying rafayel is losing his vision i’m going to lose my mind 😭😭😭

Chat have we noticed how everyone has had a 5 star card that takes place in the ml's HOUSE where the layout is visible in the kindled but Rafayel? he never seems to get domestic setting cards either, it's mostly outdoors. And tipsy invitation does not count nor does the standard your fragrance, cause the layout ain't even there, basically irrelevant and ebb and flow isn't even a card c'mon.

Raf and MC literally speak of bathing together, booty crack butt ass naked together, Rafayel has washed and dried her hair in secret times, went at it in the shower fully clothed cause he got horny from watching her back while washing her hair, verbally said "no funny business" and then ravaged her a minute later. He's repeatedly taken care of her when she's injured.

And it's been stated and reiterated again and again that he's clingy. as hell, touch starved, touch famished if you would, and it's also understood that he struggles not to be that way and feels his love is overwhelming at times. Yet his affinity poses and his solo banner poses are always the least intimate and basic as hell, yeah the lollipop had a double meaning but did they have to be covid days apart? wouldn't it make it better to have them close to communicate the innuendo? if they are gonna give them the "fun pose" every time why not, you know, make the pose actually fun? they literally released a universal dynamic of them DANCING but oh Rafayel wifetron800 would always be 3 feet apart from his beating heart? he does not even gaf who is watching Rafayel has been affectionate towards MC in front of Thalia, Thomas and literal strangers, disgustingly obvious about it.

I think Infold gave him the most intricate, humongous and interesting home layout just to waste it away and leave it to 4 star cards, how is it possible it's been two years and i've still not seen MC wake up in his mansion to the sound of waves, birds and Rafayel wrapped around her like a snake? how have we not seen them hanging out at the beach right at his door? them taking a bath together like he's always asking her to do? cuddling on the couch? getting ready for an exhibition? getting back from an exhibition and Raf fucking the daylights out of her cause he was watching her the whole night? or her fucking the daylights out of him cause she was watching him the whole night? having a paint fight in the studio? staying the night and helping with his nightmares? cooking? anything? ho I'm insane about this.

I know Rafayel is more adventurous and loves going out and about with MC and have new experiences together etc. But his content outside of 5 star cards where we see them sleeping on a stupidly shaped couch, being taken care of while sick, seeing her in the hall late at night and thinking is a ghost, taking care of a cat for her, that is wholesome and intimate and deserving of a 5 star card, Rafayel treasures her presence in his home enough to have a chest with her belongings bro please let me see them be domestic together, i want fluff i want casual intimacy, i want "same soul in two different bodies" i want Raf do see his bride first thing in the morning I WANT IT ALL.

[rafayelqi]

we must persist.
