Little Bits of Sunshine

32. (18+ blog. MDNI w/ content that is.) Credit to @poissond-avril for the PFP art. Neurodivergent & Queer. He/him. Pasty USian. Writer. Multifandom, multishipper, w/ every character x happiness being the priority, of course.  FíliOri is my current hyperfixation. (Alongside anything Hobbit/LOTR related.) BBC Merlin, The Pitt, and Bridgerton appear more often than not, too. AO3: skatesfullofsunshine

They're just chilling, as I continue writing another one of their love stories. <3

elyan x merlin headcanons that live in my brain rent free:

elyan is one of the few knights who genuinely likes listening to merlin complain. he'll just sit there like "go on." biggest mistake of his life. merlin has three years of grievances ready to go.

merlin falls asleep everywhere. tables, horses, castle walls. elyan starts keeping an eye out for him and makes sure nobody bothers him.

elyan teaches merlin how to properly use a sword. merlin remains terrible at it.

merlin teaches elyan how to identify medicinal herbs. elyan pretends not to care but starts bringing him rare plants he finds while patrolling.

they become an unstoppable gossip duo. if information exists, they know it.

elyan is the first person merlin tells about being Emrys because he trusts him enough to risk it.

elyan absolutely joins merlin in making fun of arthur and unlike gwaine, elyan can keep a straight face.

after magic becomes legal, elyan becomes the knight most likely to tell people to stop being weird about it. "it's magic, not the plague. get over yourself."

half of camelot assumes they're dating years before they actually are. the other half assumes they're already married.

they get together because one day somebody asks if they're a couple and elyan says "not currently" and merlin spends the next week staring into the distance processing that answer.

As Aromantic Visibility Day (June 5th) approaches this year, friendly reminder from an aroace: it's Aromantic Visibility Day, not "Aroace" Visibility Day! Not all aromantics are also asexual — there are aromantics who are allosexual (aroallos for short), aromantics who don't separately label their sexual orientation at all, and aromantics whose sexual orientation doesn't fit into an ace/allo binary, as well as likely even more aros who don't fit into "aroace" for even more reasons — and all of them are equally included in Aromantic Visibility Day, because they are equally aromantic! In fact, those aros who aren't ace are disproportionately erased and in need of visibility, even more than aroaces are (which is really saying something, because aroace visibility itself is already terrible), so including them in Aromantic Visibility Day is vital, and using the correct name for the occasion instead of calling it an "aroace day" is a start.

Overall: again, speaking as an aroace myself, we aroaces will not be offended if you just call Aromantic Visibility Day the thing it is actually called! I care about sharing this upcoming day with my fellow aros, so stop excluding them, even accidentally! We aroaces celebrate this day but it is not for us exclusively!

What begins as an arranged marriage to assuage a restless kingdom, following new information coming to light about Thorin's gold sickness thirteen years after Erebor was reclaimed, turns into two soulmates who have orbited each other their whole lives finally being brought together, which allows for a proper beginning to their lifelong love story at last.

Alongside the inception of a union of equals that will reshape an entire kingdom and beyond, Fíli and Ori as much as those they love most, will learn they have more to contend with than anyone previously knew.

Politics and plot far past Erebor will ensue.

“Reminder that aspecs can still date and love their friends and family” and themselves. And their hobbies, and their passion in life, and the media they consume and their pets and places they like to go and food and drinks they like and in fact they don’t have to subscribe to the idea of “love” at all. You don’t have to date or have friends or family to be a person. You don’t have to fit into what society wants your life to be like to not be a robot. When I complain about aphobes implying that people who don’t date are machines, I’m not just complaining that they devalue platonic or familial love. They’re devaluing the idea of being your own person and thats a type of aphobia people don’t talk about enough. Aspecs can do whatever they want forever and that includes everything.

People who don't hyperfixate will never know the slightly horrible, completely impossible-to-replicate feeling of being so intensely invested in something it possesses you, takes over your waking thoughts and rides some weird line between being excited, anxious, and stressed as hell while still being entirely some other beast.
