That Nonsexual Intimacy Of Just Being In Each Other's Spaces, Of Gravitating Towards Each Other, Always

Thought this one suited himm

Here’s it with a diff background :>

Thinking about true love and book 7 again:

True Love is what allowed Malleus to be conceived by his parents and eventually hatched by Lilia.

True love is what put baby Silver to sleep by his parents and woken up by Lilia.

Sebeks parents were able to walk past the line of human and fae, of hundreds of years of animosity, and allowed them to have their children.

Love is what diasomnia is about and love is also what caused the OB to happen.

Love is as destructive and chaotic as it is healing and nourishing 🥹😭💚

Ways We Show Love Writing Prompts

Carrying a bottle of painkillers for them

Making them laugh when they're upset

Bringing them a drink they didn't ask for

Kissing their forehead

Running your fingers through hair

Buying them something they never would have asked for

Making them their favorite meal after a long day

Knowing their schedule as well as your own

Listening to them rant

Taking interest in their hobbies

Letting them nap with their head in your lap

Doing their hair for them

Telling them to stop working so hard

Listening to their favorite music

Sitting with them after a bad day

Comforting them after a nightmare

Walking in step with them even when you don't have to

Letting them cry on your shoulder

Having their favorite snack in your bag

Squeezing them as tight as you can

Helping them move house

Buttoning up their coat for them when you don't have to

Bringing them medicine when they're sick, even though you know they won't take it

Communicating wordlessly across the room

Sharing a plate of food

Helping them build their confidence before an important meeting

Making sure they're safe on their way home

Helping them calm down

Remembering their favorite things

Rubbing their feet for them

Pulling over to comfort them

Having food ready for them when they come home

Turning off the lights when they have a migraine

Making sure they get sleep

Driving them to work just so you can have a few more minutes together

Doing their makeup for them

Buying them a piece of jewelry that reminds you of them

Dancing with them in the living room

Doing their chores for them

Holding hands when you cross the road.

FUCK?????????

there's an interesting historical reference to a poem (that is somewhat similar to the original sleeping beauty fairy tales) in diasomnia chapter 4 main story that i wanted to yap about

spoilers under the cut

I translated the Main Story Book 7 Chapter 4 Ep 63 (which is posted on my tl account over here) when it was first released, and looking back on it now, i realized that there's this part that hasn't been talked about(?) (or maybe i'm just out of the loop now LOL).

But basically there's this part where baul and lilia explains that they were going to 野ばら城 (which i translated as Wild Rose Castle) to deliver a message to Queen Maleanor, Malleus' mother.

If we break down the meaning of each character:

• "野" ("の/no") means "wild,"

• ばら ("bara") means "rose,"

• while "城" ("shiro") is just the word for "castle";

Thus, I translated 野ばら城 to 'Wild Rose Castle.'

HOWEVER. 野ばら on its own is also the Japanese translation of Goethe's poem, "Heidenröslein," which is a story about a young man who decides to pluck a small rose on the heath despite the rose's warning that she will stick him with her thorn. Here is a screenshot of a summary of the poem's text from its wiki page.

I think it's an extremely interesting choice on the Twst writers' end to choose this specific word as the name for Maleanor's castle since if you just wanted to search up an actual wild rose, you would have to type 野バラ instead (using the katakana バラ as it's the more common way to type the word 'rose' in Japanese).

Plus, taking into account the message behind Heidenröslein, I can't help but recall the actual Sleeping Beauty fairy tale AND the Maleficent (2014) movie. (Angelina Jolie herself said that Henry betraying Maleficent's trust and love just to take away her wings is like an allegory to rape).

What does it mean for Twst lore?

Well, nothing much, really. Since they never touched on this topic again after Silver and the guys left Lilia's dream 😔. We'll have to wait until Heartslabyul dreams are over until we get new lore drops related to Diasomnia, but I just found this as an interesting etymology that I wanted to share! It also just shows the detail that the writers put into writing the main story as they reference content somewhat related to the stories where the characters are twisted from.

(I like to yap about twst lore so follow me if you want to see more of that + i'm in dire need of friends </3)

chapter 7 doodles + a quick thought of levan?

hello malleus nation

MHYK MS2 SPOILERS BELOW

I finished ms2 like. weeks ago. but holy shit it's still haunting me i have so many thoughts about it like:

IT ENDS LIKE THAT???? CLIFFHANGER AHH💀💀

owen constantly provoking cain to "leave his knight-like/knighthood" and cain going "aight bet" then owen legitimately crashing out when he saw cain doing Whatever at the western country???? Chat this is actual peak.

also owen holds So Much Affection for cain. not speaking as a caiowe shipper right now but i'm speaking like in an analysis way. he refuses to admit it out loud but he constantly, without fail, puts his trust on cain's attitude and character. (See: the lennox vs cain discussion wherein owen was literally the only one who said cain would win over lennox LMFAO) (Speaking as a caiowe shipper: HO THIS GAY AHHHH)

i seriously love the oz and arthur discussion at the later chapters🥲 arthur Really, REALLY needed to hear those words come out from oz himself, and oz really needed to tell his feelings to arthur. they're so father and son🥹 (See: Screenshot below ↓)

also arthur and owen interactions were so cute

FUCKKKK MY EASTIES😭😭😭😭💔💔💔💔 I NEARLY SHAT MY PANTS WHEN NERO WAS ON THE BRINK OF DEATH AND BRAD FOUND HIM (brad going "now tell me who did this to you" LIKE? this wizard yaoi shit serious, i'm out!)

oughhh but easties in general,,,,, i love their dynamic so so much they're my favorite country🥹🥹 faust cares so much for his students and vice versa!!!! aghhh this entire convo of faust and shino just made me genuinely so emotional. THEY'VE TRULY COME SO FAR. AHHHH

Figaro will die soon

i did not expect mitile to actually eat the stone but wow!!!!!! i mean it's expected but i was still surprised :O

rustica bride reveal... Ho that lore drop crazy

lenofigafau......... Guys... GUYSSSSSSS i have so much to say about them but i feel i need to write that in an actual Document instead of a tumblr post like it's that serious

Can i come out as a figaoz supporter

the current progression of main sto is so interesting!!! super curious to see how everything else will play out (Example: Nova, Easties finding out about Nero's past, the prophecies about Arthur and Mitile, etc.)

speaking of prophecies. MANNNN oz really loves arthur so much he tried to change fate so he dies instead of him but it still didn't work out dufkehfidhj

Also! i did NOT expect arthur to actually make a promise like holy shit. that was peak. and for chloe too weurygsgshg i know chloe wouldn't pull any bad shit but wow!!!! just thinking about the Gravity of the situation is so surprising

i need more shymurr lore....... + the fact that ms2 is mainly set in the west is vv interesting i want to know more about the world building especially in thr west

rutile🥹🥹 ashekdjd i long for angst i wonder how he'll react once he figures out mitile's prophecy.... i also want to see more of him in Action. like can he please punch mithra.

the twins are always so ominous lol i wonder if their prophecies now (the ones about arthur and mitile) would actually come true or not🤔 well everyone did kept on saying that their prophecies are always right but seeing how oz is trying to play with arthur's fate while mithra is unknowingly messing with? or confusing? mitle's fate, maybe something could not go in the way they expected? IDK

i absolutely love how riquet is always direct. he talked some sense into oz like yeah kid tell that 2000 year old man about how he should talk to his 17 year old son!!!!

Ok i think that's all for now. i'll add more when i'm not in a rush LOL

The Avengers 2012 era was the best time ever in the fandom

Thor loves pop tarts, Clint lived in the vents, Bruce and Tony did science together, Steve was the mom friend of the team and did art in his free time, Natasha was cool aunt of the team, Loki was there too and a bunch of other characters like Peter, Sam, Bucky, Vision and Wanda all lived in the Avengers tower together

It was a much simpler time where everyone in the fandom was chill and having fun together
