Your beloved blorbo is a Zuurith bootlicker
Excuse me! He's a humble servant of Zuurith. He was born to represent and serve the honourable city of Zuurith. Unlike a certain someone who didn't even have a purpose when she was born.

Pryderlinua: A Shipping Manifesto (with a Side of @tesslinua Shade)
Opposites Attract: Order vs. Chaos, Law vs. Life (Sorry, Tess)
Pryder and Alinua couldn’t be more different in terms of their worldviews, and that’s exactly why they work.
Pryder is all about order, structure, and the rule of law. He values stability and he’s not afraid to uphold it—whether with a stern lecture or a sharp blade.
Alinua, on the other hand, is a force of nature (literally), driven by emotions, compassion, and the free-spirited force of Life Magic. She’s chaos wrapped in kindness, always moving with the flow of her heart.
Tesslinua fans, don’t get too comfy. While Tess may be fun and spontaneous, she’s all over the place, and let’s face it—her chaotic energy just doesn’t give Alinua the stability she needs. Tess can’t always be there to keep things in check, but Pryder? He can give Alinua the balance she deserves, while still challenging her to grow in all the best ways.
A Relationship of Growth and Understanding (Sorry Tess, You’re Still Just A Little Too Messy)
Pryder and Alinua would be the ultimate pair of complementary opposites, helping each other grow in ways that would never happen with Tess. Sure, Tess is a good friend, but let’s be real:
Pryder’s calm, collected nature would help Alinua reign in her powers and learn to think before acting. A little bit of tactical strategy never hurt anyone, right?
Alinua’s warmth and compassion would push Pryder to open up and connect with others on a more emotional level. Tess? Tess might just make her yell more when things don’t go her way!
Unlike Tesslinua, where it’s all “let’s run wild and see what happens,” Pryderlinua would be built on trust, learning, and mutual support. Can Tess say that? Doubt it. "Let me share my home with you," sis you don't even have a home. What you're gonna crash at Alinua's place for a week like a hobo then fuck off on another adventure?
The Protector and the Healer (Tess is... Well, Tess)
When it comes to the Protector vs. Healer dynamic, Pryder and Alinua have it down.
Pryder is more than willing to fight for what he believes in, but he would never let Alinua put herself at risk without ensuring she’s protected. His loyalty means something, and he wouldn’t leave her vulnerable.
Alinua, as the healer, would remind Pryder that not every difference is irreconcilable—sometimes, kindness and care are the ultimate diplomatic tools.
Now, Tess? Tess might try to help, but let’s face it—she’s more likely to get in trouble, drag Alinua into danger, and then “oops, sorry” her way through it. That’s fun at the moment, but it’s not really the stability and growth that Alinua needs. Pryder, however, would be there every step of the way, helping Alinua balance her healing powers with the practical reality of their dangerous world.
Enemies to Allies to Lovers (Tesslinua is Just ??? to ???)
Pryder and Alinua’s relationship would start with tension, yes—but in the best possible way. Their initial friction over their differing philosophies would lead to fascinating development, where they slowly come to respect each other, eventually growing into a deep emotional bond.
Pryder would learn to trust his emotions (no, not just his duty) and start realizing that Alinua’s spontaneity is not just chaos—it’s life in action.
Alinua would learn that not everything needs to be healed instantly, and that strategy and planning are essential too.
Tess and Alinua’s dynamic, on the other hand, is just a series of “whoops, that was a bad idea” moments followed by more bad ideas. Yeah, the chemistry’s there, but it’s more like a roller coaster that never gets off the ground—it’s fun, but ultimately, it’s all over the place.
He/Him Lesbian Supremacy (Tess literally can't even bother with a she/they)
Are we just handing the reins to any muscly lesbian these days? Tess ticks all the sapphic boxes, sure, but Pryder sees beyond that and carves his own path through the gender fluid.
Final Thoughts: The Real Match for Alinua
Let’s face it—Pryderlinua has depth, development, and a healthy balance of tension and warmth.
Pryder’s protective nature, paired with Alinua’s warmth and passion, would create a romance that is both tender and powerful.
Tess might be fun, but fun only gets you so far when you’re literally carrying the weight of life’s magic on your shoulders.
Pryder respects Alinua’s strength and individuality, while Tess is a bit too distracted by shiny things to see what Alinua really needs.
Alinua deserves someone who sees her potential, respects her power, and helps her grow into the best version of herself. In contrast, Tess is just there for the ride—and that’s fine, but Pryder is in it for the long haul.
Let’s be real—Pryderlinua is the ship that sets sail to greatness. Tesslinua may be entertaining, but let’s leave it at that.
What about Alinua has two hands (to hold Tess and Pryder's)?
"No one can serve two masters, for a slave will either hate the one and love the other or be devoted to the one and despise the other." Matt. 6:24
Why add Tess in and throw off the balance when Pryder and Alinua are already perfect? She'll just lead her astray.
listen to me pryderlinua mod. the fate of your ship depends on your ability to write incredibly compelling and fucked up smutfic. its up to you. you can change the world
You all asked for this. (Actual smutfic below the cutoff. Be warned.)
So, what's next for Pryderlinua?
Eagerly awaiting the next Pryder appearance of course. Hopefully we get Silksong before that
I heard there's a version of Aurora out there with 15%, maybe even 20% more Pryder included.
Release the Pryder cut!
Release the Pryder cut, Red! The people demand it.
You clearly don’t really love Pryder if you let AI defile his name! You’re just a fragile poser, like Zuurith.
I'm this close to blocking you, anon. How dare you suggest I don't love Pryder?? This precious manifesto is crafted with love and care after extensive and careful prompting to introduce a result I'm satisfied with. Sure there are some creative liberties taken but the all-knowing AI has predicted the most likely characterisation of Pryder based on the limited information we know about him. I'd wager that ChatGPT knows more about Pryder than anyone else except Red.
And Zuurith is regal and composed!! He runs a tight ship unlike Vash who let things get so out of hand his whole city got destroyed!
New Pryder lore just dropped.
