Hey, I get why some people want Lucanis and Rook to have an easy time after the game's events, however Lucanis' life is, fundamentally, a telenovela.
Anyway what I'm trying to say is: tag all the reasons Caterina Dellamorte doesn't like your Rook and would disapprove of their relationship.
The topic of first relationships played funnily between Lucanis and my Rook. Rook was like: "Well. I wouldn't know how a first kiss tastes like since I've never been kissed before". Lucanis said something like: "In matters of the heart is better not to rush". My Rook was sure that was a patronizing comment coming from someone that probably has kissed dozens of people before.
When they took forever to get together, Rook thought: "Oh, man. He clearly doesn't like me because I'm inexperienced :(". Then that banter between Lucanis and Emmrich happened and Rook was like: "Wait, wait, WHAT? WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'M YOUR FIRST RELATIONSHIP??? YOU WEREN'T BEING PATRONIZING, YOU WERE BEING HONEST!"
Viago and Teia getting a letter one day (technically it was addressed to just Teia but they were On again so they're reading it together. there's another addressed to Viago waiting in his room which he has not slept in for three days and probably won't find go back to for at least a week more) that says:
We're eloping to Nevarra and Lucanis is abdicating. Giving you a heads up because you're cool. Enjoy the fallout!
Best Regards, Rook and Lucanis Ingellvar
What follows this unceremonious departure from Antiva is a level of chaos rivaling even Zevran's reign of terror as all the Talons scramble to grab the empty seat Lucanis left behind to live his best life as a househusband. House Dellamorte that has limped along clinging to power through blood and cruelty finally falls and in the resulting chaos and confusion either Teia or Viago end up seizing the seat of the First Talon. They're not sure whether to thank Lucanis or strangle him for causing such upheaval. Lucanis is too happy spending his days baking bread and testing out new recipes to really care.
I'm so sorry (am I really tho?) I really wanted to try this mod in different cutscenes 😅
i'm obsessed with Lucanis tender heart Dellamorte deciding the night before what is absolutely going to be the hardest fight of his life (so far) and possibly his last day alive is the perfect moment to make love for the first time ever.
and i say 'make love' and not 'lose his virginity' or 'have sex', because i fully believe that's how he sees it - the concept of virginity likely means nothing to him, has never concerned him, and his feelings for Rook go so far beyond the mechanics or urges for sex. this is THE culmination of all his yearning - to be close to them, to be vulnerable with them, to pour himself and his feelings into them and know without a doubt they'll be there with love and open arms to receive it and give the same to him. this man is SMITTEN.
he knows it's going to be over in a matter of seconds (it is). he knows it'll probably be awkward (it's not, he's shocked by how much it's not). he knows they need to sleep, they'll be putting their bodies through hell soon enough. but none of that matters anymore because he has the love of his goddamn life back, healthy and whole and falling into his arms. they have the rest of their lives (however long that is) to get better at this part. so yeah, he's going to have his three seconds of love making and he's going to soak in an entire night of their company and connection and conversation when they should be sleeping, he's going to greedily take every single moment he can, because he's done denying himself. they love and accept him, and he's starting to love and accept himself, too.
Lucanis Dellamorte, the man that you are.

I tried to keep them "tame", not sure if tumblr will like this.
insane taash lucanis banter where taash asks why the butcher didn’t just move to treviso like their mother moved to rivain and start a new life in the city he loved instead of occupying it and lucanis says:
Lucanis: Antaam are trained from childhood, yes? The Butcher would have grown up only ever learning how to be a warrior, a conqueror.
Taash: So he invaded the city and turned into a monster, because his tama never taught him how to do anything else.
Lucanis: He still had a choice. There is always a choice.
not that this is relevant to lucanis at all
there's something truly fucked about lucanis showing no interest in becoming first talon and even stating that's illario's calling instead, because he's right. it's explicitly stated that illario is a lot more like your average crow than the ones we get to know in veilguard. zevran would confirm this too if the writers remembered he exists. illario isn't a victim to their selfless idealism because that's not what crows are supposed to be. they're wealthy criminals, any "selflessness" they might possess must be bought. illario learned nothing but cruelty from caterina's cruel teachings and he's a better crow for it. he's not better person for it of course, that's not how you raise a well adjusted individual, and still it feels like caterina resents him for being exactly what she made him. it's just so unfair? she likes lucanis because he still cares, but she didn't teach him to care. he cares in spite (heh) of the things she taught him, of the violence, of starvation, and he gets special treatment for that. illario's the monster caterina wants to pretend she's not, and she hates him for it. imagine that! being punished for being someone's true successor. your own brother says he's entertaining the idea of becoming first talon only until she thinks better of it and passes the title down to you instead, but that never happens. and when you fall on schemes (because that's all you know) to earn the life you're owed, when you have to kill your own brother for it and feel horrible because you killed your own brother, his death is still not enough to sway her mind. one day he'll return from the dead, and again you'll scheme and it still won't be enough. your bother is made king and he keeps the crown he doesn't even want, the one he sometimes forgets he was given. and you get nothing but humiliation, he may even throw you in prison. my god. they'd catch my ass barking in the streets.
I didn't know Lucanis was so worried if Rook got hurt on the battlefield. Maybe I didn't get injured enough 🤔
Rook! Hold on! x 3 Hold on, Rook! x 3 Rook is down! Get to Rook! We need to help Rook! Fall back! Help Rook! Rook needs us! Get to Rook - hurry! I've got you. You're all right. Hold on. No worries, I have you. Hang on. I'm here. Hold on.
I didn't want you to see that. Again. How do you always do that? Break apart my perfectly gathered clouds of doom. You deserve better than to deal with my mess. This isn't a good idea. You like to walk a little close to the edge. At least I know I'm doing it. I… need to clear my head. Excuse me.
What some people don't understand is that Dabi's dance celebration comes from the place of real life victims finding relief in seeing Touya facing his abuser and devastating completely his ego.
It's his victory but also a moment to breath and be there on top of a mountain, dancing because the truth is finally revealed and now everyone knows how the person they venerate is the person that destroyed you in body and mind. They are all in his side, they all claim for him to rise up, while you'd be dead and forgotten, another martyr on his glorious life tale.
But you are not done and you are not gone and as long as your legs can move you're gonna dance and as long as your jaw can move you're gonna scream to the heavens that that person is not getting sanctified. He's going to the hell he put you in and he's gonna answer to the rage he put in you and he'd never ever be able to outrun the damage he caused you.

Dabi's dance is one of the best moments in bnha.
