chat I'm cooking π₯
I'll draw these at some point lmao (probably) but for now just take your best guess
Like me personally I think we should allow Nuru to be fragile every once in a while because sheβs literally just a girl. Not in the barely-disguised-misogyny way but in the was that sheβs LITERALLY just a girl, sheβs like sixteen, sheβs a child, and she already spent her entire life cosplaying Atlas and having to be strong for her people, allowing her her emotions is not a terrible awful crime and it does not make her any less capable. If Varian and Hugo can be allowed their emotional complexities and hundreds of thousands of breakdowns and still be capable and ass-kicking then guess what, so does Nuru
When your fruity child tries to come out but the only new information you learn is that they are the slightest bit less fruity than you thought previously
Every time someone draws/writes Hugo being a total puppy for Varian an angel gains its wings π
Donella and Cyrus as wlw and mlm solidarity
Thank you.
Okay but thinking about how Varian went from "I can't do anything right" to "I can't afford to make mistakes" whereas Hugo went down the opposite pipeline
currently thinking about Varian "i cant do anything right" of Old Corona vs Hugo "i cant afford to make mistakes" Rottewange
and ohhhh they make me fuckin SICK
The Only Exception by Paramore is quite possibly the most Varigo coded song on any of my playlists and Iβm physically incapable of listening to it without thinking of them
Okay so if Donella is basically unable to use or be affected by magic in any way, then what if Ulla was the opposite? I always found it weird how Donella was the one to trap Ulla in the library, cause like. when would she have the time to trap her. she's gathering her troops, so she's a bit busy.
SO, to fix this, I decided that as a side affect of keeping Donella out and away, Ulla begun to rely on magic to continue living. She's technically half-alive though. She doesn't have a complete physical form, so she often appears see-through and its really disturbing.
The way she learns she can possess things is when she's reading a book and she's not able to focus, so she thinks if she possesses it, she'll just absorb all the knowledge. It works, but it makes her feel incredibly sick (not like she can feel sick anymore), and she didn't learn a thing about the book. So when she possesses Varian, she can't access his thoughts or anything.
She kinda destroyed/shut down the portal after throwing Donella out, but she knows that she's practically bound to the library, so if the library was ever unlocked again, she knew that if she left, she'd just disintegrate. Possessing Varian would probably be easier than possessing anyone else, because another of my HCs (that I may have stole from VTT) is that Var has a slight connection to the moonstone, and it's easier to possess magical things if you are magic. The same does not apply with proper ghosts, as seen in s1 with Ruth.
The library would also stop working properly for Ulla, mainly because it didn't like her, but also because she was living off of too much unstable magic, making the whole library unstable. Really putting into perspective how powerful Ulla is.
Can we talk about Eugene's growth. He started as a selfish thief who feels alienated from everyone and once he decided to do the right thing by saving Rapunzel he still thinks he is an outsider not worthy of compassion.
It was until Arianna, a person he barely personally knew offered him a hand and pulled him to a hug, accepting him despite not knowing a thing about him.
And now Eugene, after unlearning his selfishness and tendency to run from problems, matured knowing he is loved and is willing to take responsibility for the people he loves. And now it is him who gets offer love and compassion to Cass, who feels fearful of being undeserving of it after what she has done.
Eugene used to live thinking he didn't deserve love and compassion, and now he's the one offering love and compassion.
