She’s gonna hug him and poke and prod into his personal life and charm him and send him messages and give him a cupcake and make him a parasol when the sun hurts his eyes and trust him when nobody else did and run up to hug him in Eiselcross after weeks apart and after the discovery of his harm she will still trust him and love him and accept him and he’s gonna be a bridesmaid at her wedding one day and read tusk love just because she recommended it

TS Fic Recs: Essek Attempts Caregiving

There is little I love more than otherwise competent characters trying and failing and still trying to do things they're not very good at. Inspired by M9A!Essek's attempted caretaking of Deirta, here's a list of 13 fics in which TS!Essek thinks about or actively tries to give care and comfort to others.

As promised coloured versions of the Empire Sibs and Jesties drawings I posted last month :))

[ariadne-mouse]

I like to think that Jester drew that sleep mask for Essek. She made him a parasol on two separate occasions when the bright sun was uncomfortable for him in canon; it's not too big a stretch to imagine she did something similar if she ever saw him trying to catch some rest but having trouble due to the light.

Been thinking about the Jessties' friendship a lot recently
