“I’ll write you a pardon.” Regis teases, but it’s lighthearted as he pets down Nyxs spine. Cor is off in the kitchen somewhere, doing things to eggs that are best left unexplored until they end up on a plate.

“Seriously. You’re royalty, and my family aint had a royal bone in it since before Lucis was a kingdom.” he complains, and Regis has to grin. Nyx left that one wide open, and he does love the dear boy.

“Well, it had a royal bone in it last night.” Regis says, and rolls over to press Nyx into the mattress, his hands smoothing over strong sides and down the inviting curve of his hips.

Nyx groans like a wounded man and burries his face in the pillow, just as Cor comes into the room, balancing six plates and a pot of coffee. The usually stoic man arches an eyebrow at their antics, and sets everything on the side table.

“You’re terrible.” Cor laments, but he does lean down to steal a kiss off Regis’ grin. “No puns until he’s had coffee, your Majesty. He’s much quicker on the uptake when he’s caffeinated.”

“I hate you both.” Nyx whines from his pillow, but both of them can hear the grin in it. After all, it’s his beads set in fine silver and hair that they’re wearing now, rings woven in Galahdian style for Lucian traditions. Nyx wears their claim too, twin bands of mythril that have the Royal Crest on one, and a single blue gem on the other.

“You love us.” Regis coos, happy beyond words that he could have this again. “Now come on. Our husband has gone and made us breakfast. Be a shame to wait until it’s cold.”

Noctis grumped, leaning against Ardyn and tucking his nose into the dust-books-sweet smell of the man that he’d taken as a parent, when Regis had married him. “And here you are, telling me they don’t know anything, when Mom says I need to listen to them.” he groused.

“Your mother is very wise, sometimes.” Ardyn agreed, grinning ruefully. Noctis always was able to tuck himself just right to not prod any old hurts. And the boy was so sweet and gentle with everyone, it was a wonder he could ever actually be King.

“Let me tell you a story then.” Ardyn said, voice dropping into a familiar cadence. “Of when the sun stood still in the sky, and Solheim ruled the world. Let me tell you of our people, your ancestors, little Noctis, little Night, and why it is so important that you be exactly as you are.”

Ardyn:….You came back.

Nyx: Of course I did? It took longer than usual to get everything settled but-

Ardyn: *wraps himself around Nyx like a goddamn octopus* You came back.

Nyx: Oh.

And that’s Nyx’s first clue on how fucked up Ardyn is.

I didn’t know Mr. T pityed fool’s that weren’t woke, but that’s awesome. #respect

“I think about my father being called ‘boy’, my uncle being called ‘boy’, my brother, coming back from Vietnam and being called ‘boy’. So I questioned myself: “What does a black man have to do before he’s given the respect as a man?” So when I was 18 years old, when I was old enough to fight and die for my country, old enough to drink, old enough to vote, I said I was old enough to be called a man. I self-ordained myself Mr. T so the first word out of everybody’s mouth is “Mr.” That’s a sign of respect that my father didn’t get, that my brother didn’t get, that my mother didn’t get.“

-Mr. T on the subject of his name

Advice I wish I could give my younger self! I seriously had no idea what a healthy relationship looked like. It wasn’t until I met my current SO that I found out that partnerships don’t have to be stressful and draining.

Don’t assume malice. Assume ignorance. Life is easier, the world is kinder, and you can educate. Actual malice is pretty rare, I find.

Always remember Hanlon’s Razor–”Never assume malice when incompetence will suffice as an explanation.”

That’s said, never forget Fred Clark’s Law, either: “Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice.” There’s a certain point at which ignorance becomes malice–at which there is simply no way to become that ignorant except deliberately and maliciously.

by me, a fool who doesnt wanna die anymore

never make a suicide joke again. yes this includes “i wanna die” as a figure of speech. swear off of it. actually make an effort to change how you think about things.

find something to compliment someone for at least 4 times a day. notice the little things about the world that make you happy, and use that to make other people happy.

talk to people. initiate conversation as often as you possibly can. keep your mind busy and you wont have to worry anymore

picture the bad intrusive thoughts in youe head as an edgy 13 year old and tell them to go be emo somewhere else

if someone makes you feel bad most of the time, stop talking to them. making yourself hang out with people who drain you is self harm. stop it.

Also, Zifnab said that the Abarrach Sartan are “12th generation.” 12 generations for humans is only about 350 years, which doesn’t check out at all given how old elves are supposed to live, and how none of them remember the Sundering. And I know sartan and patryns are implied to be way longer-lived, except that’s not really how generations work– it’s implied by Haplo being around 19 gates when he met that Patryns can have kids at about the same time humans do.

(unless a gate is NOT actually close to a year at ALL, which opens a whole other can of worms….)

Unless the implication is that it’s been 12 generations since some other event? Beginning to use necromancy, or something? I could buy that, and if that’s the case, that seems to align with Alfred spending a couple hundred years in stasis… which seems plausible.

Side note: Apparently it takes 1000 cycles for the seasun on Chelestra to come melt the dragon-snakes after they’re frozen shortly after the Sundering. Again, who knows how a cycle relates to a gate relates to a year as we know it….

Yeah, the timeframe stuff is…really confusing and inconsistent in this series. We have no idea how much longer Sartan/Patryns live compared to humans, we have no idea how long a cycle is because W&H sometimes seem to use it to mean a day and other times not, gates are maaaybe Patryn-adjusted years but maybe not???, etc.

I think the 12th generation thing is supposed to refer to the number of Sartan generations since the Sundering, but I’m not sure if that really makes sense because of the general lack of consistency of time measurements.

Also: Did Alfred really spend that long in stasis? I have no idea how long he was in there, but I was imagining a much shorter time.

But now that I think about it, this is probably right. The Arianus mensch remember that the Sartan existed, but they believe the Sartan have been gone for the entirety of living memory. Even Ciang doesn’t remember them personally, and she is very old even by elven standards. So the Sartan must have gone into stasis before the oldest living elves were born, which would equate to at least like 300 years ago or something.

(Additionally, why is it even possible for the physical incarnation of evil to be frozen? This is…strange. But it presents a possibility for the post-series Sartan and Patryns to deal with the dragon-snakes. They could make a huge ice cave or something and try to trick them into going into it, and then freeze the entrance over so the dragon-snakes can’t get out. Hmm…)

@deathgatesideblog

There’s also the hinted implications that time - isn’t quite continuous between the worlds. Oh, we could interpret it as a matter of differing calendars, but if time itself is somewhat out of joint - that just adds another aspect to the whole mess.

I saw a sad facebook post from the gay bookstore back in Ann Arbor where I used to live about how they hadn’t sold any books that day so I went on their online store and bought a couple, and while you don’t get #deals like elsewhere online, I’d love it if y’all would consider buying your next gay book from them instead of like, Amazon.

This is such a lovey story. It’s how marketing should be done.

They have a sweet dog that they post about on Facebook as well.If I get around to it, I should try to get my book published on Kobo then I could stock it here…
