I love the hair braiding trope, but there is some serious debate about whether it's dwarves who have the hair-braiding customs or elves, so I'm here to settle that once and for all.
Legolas, hoping they just seem friendly and doesn't know dwarves have the same hair customs: Hey Gimli, could I help with your hair?
Gimli, hoping he just seems friendly and doesn't know elves have the same hair customs: Uh, sure!
Aragorn, who knows that hair braiding is romantic for both elves and dwarves: ......... WHat
have a random need and urge to expand on the difference (in loving terms) between being hugged and being held.
like, to be hugged is a mutual sort of 'I love you', a small or big gesture that implicates a need to be close or have some form of physical contact. it can have different levels of love, whether it's a thing you do with your friends or something that you do with a person you love deeply and romantically, it can mean a lot of things.
for some people, it's a simple gesture that can happen in everyday life, and you don't even think about it.
for others, it's a huge thing, something that you only do with people you really mean it with. it's something that eases you and makes you feel good, like kisses (which I might have to get into another time lol)
but being held is a very different thing, and I've been thinking about it quite a lot recently.
to be held can be a one sided thing, unlike hugs, which are normally two sided, and it's can come off as more than a need for physical contact, it's a need to be loved.
being held is, in my view, also a lot more romantic, or at the very least something you only do with someone you trust a hell of a lot. it's more of a 'letting someone else take care of you' sort of thing, where you've gone back to basic needs and you just need to know you're loved. to hold someone is to protect them or comfort them, less of a simple loving gesture, more of a I've got you.
don't get me wrong, it is one hundred percent something you'd do with someone you love, but if you hold someone it can be a way of showing you love them, less of just showing each other love. like, something that you use to comfort someone and reasurre them that they are loved, something that you might know about yourself, but maybe they're not so sure, which is a whole other page of shit to explain, but yeah.
just, interesting, I think. small gestures that can mean so much to some people, and nothing to others.

Thinking about Charles and Lee being the two Jake and Michael first come out to and just how much fun they're having as big brothers hdhdg
Lee teases Michael for sure when Michael first realized he had a crush. Michael was confused over the feelings in his chest that felt like heart palpitations and was trying to figure out what was wrong. And Lee just immediately put two and two together the more Michael described how he was feeling. Playfully teased Michael about having a crush and him being dramatic about it.
Though, I'm thinking Jake's coming out/admitting about his crush to Charles is a lot more serious. Because Jake realizes more easily he has a crush, but he's processing that he has a crush on another boy.
And Charles comforts him about it of course.
"We're not machines,Jake. A difference in us from what we think is the norm isn't a malfunction in design. It's just who we are. If you like this boy, then you like him. Doesn't make you broken."
Yes I've been thinking about that line since last night when I first thought of it. And Yes I nearly made myself cry from it.
Both brothers are biggest supporters and og Sunforge shippers 100%
They cover for the two why they're sneaking out on dates, listen to them ramble about the other,etc.
After Lee dies,Charles practically becomes a big brother to Michael. Helping him get his footing as a head counselor and such.
Loosing Charles was like loosing another big brother to Michael.
What is that supposed to mean. don't give me hope...
Come back to be Micheal.... come bavk to me..... come back....
YES ✨
sat on my school bus rn and I've just had possibly the cutest but most depressing idea ever
what if Lee used to have a habit of collecting ducks?
like, plastic, glass, metal, whatever, just yellow ducks
hats, spots, stripes, accessories, this man has a whole army
and he made a habit of hiding them around cabin seven and the infirmary and when any of his siblings were sad or needed distracting he'd send them to find a specific duck and they'd be searching for the next hour for a fucking yellow and pink polka-dot duck with a tiara
and when he dies, everyone completely forgets about this until Will rummages through a drawer in the infirmary one day and BOOM
cowboy duck✨
and suddenly everyone's finding ducks everywhere, in shoes and drawers and the archery range storage cabinet and that one part of the strawberry fields where Lee and Castor used to hang out and whenever someone missed him they'd all go on a hunt for a duck until they had over a hundred of the fucking things
but still, even years later, after the TOA, Jerry finds a duck with a grapevine hat and a guitar, and Will, Kayla and Austin burst into giggles while he looks at them in confusion
'what? why are you laughing?'
'nothing. nothing at all.'
:D
