Chanarach/Gavilar Kholin for @arborplasm. And more importantly for the rest of you as well. You're welcome.
#yeah fuck it i'll post this one. you've gotten me legitimately thinking about chanvilar. the least i can do is pay it forward.#gavilar kholin#chanarach#chanvilar#shipping#wind and truth spoilers#(i love tagging spoilers on things like this)#i had no feelings on chanvilar for the longest time (i cannot stress enough that i did not pioneer this ship) but i've been convinced#arbor has recently manipulated me into talking about the ship by making it relevant to szeth.#so now i understand the vision.#it's SUCH a bad ship that it loops back around to being Good. it's like a parody of itself.#she's an amazing fighter and she knows all this lore and can perform all these great feats but 90% of the time she's just Wife.#it's the epitome of that misogynistic trope of a really competent woman being head over heels for Some Guy who sucks#which i guess chana/lin kind of already was#except lin didn't have the moxie to try and become the immortal king of humanity#young gavilar probably wasn't thinking quite so big either but who cares#i know that none of you care enough about him to check my continuity.#......hmm i don't love my young gavilar's look. i think he looks better when he's old.#chana will look exactly the same in 30 years
