To recap, so far we have:
Ex lovers who still care deeply for each other, not necessarily in the "I'm still in love with them" but rather "this is my family and I'll do anything to protect it" (Thaisha and Hal)
"we used to fight on the same battlefield when I was a boy, but do you recognise me now? Do you see me? Do you see how much I grew? Am I your equal now?" "I see you" (Azune and Teor)
Ex brothers in arms, one of them falling into being a drunk and hermit after being a coward, leaving the others behind and the second one greeting him with open arms. What forgiveness? I don't think you need it from me. I see you as my brother still (Teor and Kat)
A mentor and a mentee. A young man from a family that lives by countless rules with no room to breathe since they are a Symbol of Light. An older man who lives for art, who tells stories and writes music and creates countless universes that bring comfort or wisdom to many. One looking up to the other, to how he inspires people (Hal and Wick)
A demon who smells and acts surprisingly sweet at times and a priest who in the moment of high tension yells with anger that shuts everyone down. A bond. A pact? Another mentor and follower, but this time they're far more similar to each other (Tyranny and Wick)
A man carrying a dead friend (someone he looked up to, someone he loved enough to risk his life for) into his brother's home, then always watching said brother from the corner of his eye. Meeting eyes across the room. I want to talk to you, but I can't now. I don't know if I want to now, because what if the answers you give me aren't the ones I'm hoping for? What if you don't have any? (Azune and Hal)
"I love you so dearly that I'll come to the funeral of a person whose death I've laughed at simply because I want to be there for you and yours. Because I know you'll be hurting. So I'll put on a mask and tuck my feelings aways and I'll make sure your children don't see or hear anything that may upset them. Because I know you love them more than anything. Because I love them like they were mine. And you see my mask and don't think twice about it. You put your hand on the side of my head." (Bolaire and Hal)
I let my son study under you and you talk about him like he's your greatest achievement. You're the reason my loved one's brother is dead. You spit on his corpse and yet I can't make myself hate you. No, I pity you. But this pity won't help you if you're in any way shape or form a reason my little boy gets hurt. Then you'll learn what a wrath of nature means (Thaisha and Julien)
A twink and his three battle-scarred beefcakes (Occtis, Teor, Azune and Kat)
