ruthie and granny aroth bonding so that she can have a good relationship with her in-laws

[cmncreeper]

I was just going over the last episode again, and does anyone else get the impression from some things Wiley and Glow said that Spade might have a bf irl???

What’s ur current theory for the situation with Ruthie’s girlfriend??? And what do you think abt the aeroth family???

I think it's hard to say anything definitive this early into season 2 and based on only the brief mention in this first episode, but I definitely have some theories.

Ruthie's girlfriend has to be some sort of divine entity, She just hasn't interacted with the material plane directly enough, even before she fell, So of course the obvious answer is Rua, but Wiley and Glow have shown that Rua and Ruthie have never had that sort of relationship, so that means it's another god.

Of the rest of the Mesavan pantheon, I think the most likely answer is Nyssa, It sounds kinda random but think about it, why would Ruthie land in Thrallia in s1e1? Rua wouldn't send them there, Rua would send them to the mainland where they could become the devil Lazaruth. But Nyssa had a shelter, a place where she could send her girlfriend to make sure she had the chance to recover.

I think that's also probably why the cult of Rua attacked Thrallia first, Rua wanted to punish Nyssa for helping her girlfriend and also then use the destruction and blame it on Lazaruth.

As for the House of Aeroth, I'll be able to do more than just speculate later in s2 when the party reaches Mirailo, but for now I think it's safe to say that the single oldest and most powerful noble house we know of, a house so powerful they shielded an entire city from being touched by the crusades, and whose members are all massively influential figures in the church and state of Mesava, are probably not quite as sunshine and rainbows as they'd like everyone to believe.

i have not slept for days becuase of that moment where ruthie asked if acera was cold and then WARMED HER WITH HER WINGS like physical affection for the fallenfaith ship??????? FIRST episode of season 2 and they're already giving us fallenfaith content I am unwell

[hangedinthebalance]

wait ok so i might be a little bit in a craze rn but like what do you think about acera and arawn ?? like they both like plants and their asthetics seem super close to each other and combining them could be super cool. do you think theres any evidence to support it ? thank you !

I usually try my best to stay neutral in most of the shipping discourse so don't consider this me definitively stating my allegiance one way or another, but, here we go:

I think there is some evidence for it, not nearly as much fodder as fallenxfaith or most of the other big name ships. Mostly because of the way Rex plays Arawn, they tend to more hang on the fringes of the scene while Acera tends to be more front and center so they haven't spent too much time together one on one.

but like back in the season 1 finale in the garden, when Acera brought life back to the island, that was canonically the first time Arawn smiled, and he smiled AT Acera, plus he wove her flowers in his hair. Also he left her a note on the mast of the ship and we don't know what he said in that yet! it could be anything!
