I Really Like Fictional Couples That Actually Enjoy Spending Time With Each Other. It Seems Like Such

I really like fictional couples that actually enjoy spending time with each other. It seems like such a simple, mundane thing. But, often, I see fictional couples who are completely enamored and dramatic and willing to die for each other, which is fine. But like… do they enjoy hanging out? Do they have private jokes and would they be friends even if they weren’t in love? It feels like such a basic thing, but it’s something that I actually don’t see that often. And it feels so refreshing and honest compared to these over-dramatic romeo and juliet-esque romances. Just two people who become good friends and because they enjoy each other’s presence so much it grows into a strong attraction. It feels more real and tangible than two attractive people meeting and “falling in love at first sight” - like, of course, you fell in love at first sight! You’re both supermodels! Sorry, can’t relate.

thinking a bit more about tim's interview and tim saying that he imagines gale was bullied, for his studiousness, and learning to use humour both as a weapon and a shield:

tara absolutely would've thrown hands - or paws, in her case - for gale. i Know it in my heart. my new headcanon is that tara mauled at least one child.

(but also: absolutely do not imagine tara curling up around gale, maybe even hugging him with one of her wings, much, much later, when it's quiet and gale is trying to hide his tears.

"my little love...")

…Mystra would consider...forgiveness?…

…She would consider what she considers to be forgiveness.
