I love you guys. I'm sorry for being so inactive. Having lots of hobbies and being self-employed sucks for finding the time to write. I'll be back, I promise.

such a big fan of thistle!!! started reading for the elf ear stuff (btw love the way you write that and continuously incorporate it) but rly got invested in the plot around chapter 4. thistle’s dream of an idyllic family with durthak being interrupted by faelynn was such a great scene and reallyyyy sold me on the thistle/durthak dynamic. i think the fact that thistle gets his wires crossed between his sexual and romantic feelings for durthak interesting. he’s just had this horrible trauma leaving him as the last of his people and he has immense guilt for his attraction/submission to its perpetrator and all of his “peers” resent him for the benefits he reaps from being favored by the general. all of these factors kind of isolate and push him closer to the only “comfort” he has in this situation, which is durthak. especially faelynn!!! i love how he torments thistle in a way that is more hurtful than any orc can. sooo interested to hear his backstory. he’s such a good antagonist because he is kind of justified or at least understandable. thistle can’t even resent him, because one day that could be him. additionally, it seems his position as a sex slave and continuous rape was somehow caused by thistle’s family (offered as tribute perhaps?) and makes him resentful of his silver-spooned naïveté. what makes thistle work for me is his complete passivity; it makes him pitiable, but also stems from his understandably enviable, privileged life. would love to see faelynn attempt/succeed in either harming thistle, or continuing to torment him, or tricking durthak into believing thistle has wronged him, or some other melodramatic plot that leads to more thistle angst! i think this could play nicely into durthak’s protectiveness and the small comfort thistle extracts from that in a twisted hurt/comfort scenario.

also love the role durthak plays in general. clearly he’s raised in a war mongering society that incorporates free use slavery into every day life which is gonna color his perspective on things (though obviously doesn’t excuse the raping and pillaging). i like how he takes responsibility for his mistakes when it came to faelynn and attempts to treat thistle kinder, yet still rapes him in his sleep. this alongside his seemingly earnest belief that they can have a relationship if he just plays his cards right makes him not exactly endearing, but compelling as hell. idk i feel like there has been hints they both have genuine attraction to each other despite the circumstances so i would love to see how that develops, especially with all of these outside forces kind of pushing them together.

anyway, if you made it this far thanks so much for reading my ramblings! so excited for the next update :)

Hhhh thank you so much for this! I always love to hear what people think about my two little freaky guys, and you hit so many points that are really important to me that they come across! 🙏

Thistle really got the short end of the stick in every aspect of this story - orphaned, enslaved, ostracised, abused, and so on and so forth. He has no real options if you look at it objectively, and Durthak being so invested only makes it worse.

I hope you'll keep reading and enjoying! Things will continue to be messed up!

i love thistle smmm… the conflict and the craving for gentleness while he cums his brains out from pain also being there is so delicious. i want good things to happen to him but also i want him to be kept forever…hmm… anyways! i’m excited do anything new you write <33

Thank you so much! You're so right - he deserves all the best things and also to get his wits fucked out of his skull. It's about balance!

Also, new chapter! Enjoy. ❤️

Season 4 Thoughts

Hello! I am in fact still alive and have been making my way through S4 and I have a lot of thoughts, but most importantly

Can we please talk about that reach around line in "The Joy of Cooking"??

Bottom Jaskier is officially canon, you can't change my mind 🙏 Also Jaskier and Geralt sharing sex workers.

Anyway. I'm sure I'll have more words to say on this but yeah, that just hit me.

How's everyone doing?
