idk how to flirt. Best I can do is stare at you lovingly with my brown eyes
Happiness Will Come To You.
Lucanis “It’s not enough.”
Rook “it is and you are.”
These are the most meaningful quotes from the romance lock in scene. Everyone complains that he just made Rook dessert. But this scene shows that Rook UNDERSTANDS Lucanis. (The player may not and that’s fine.) They see his attempt to make the meal for Rook. He is cooking everyone a nice meal as a thanks for the help with my tragic life but he makes Rook a dessert to match their favorite drink. He is trying to point out that Rook is special, that they all helped but it’s really Rook that he feel the need to thank and apologize to “for everything.”
And Rook, who knows his mind and sees straight through him gets it. They call him out and make him put words to the gesture. He tries and laments that the pastry, his words aren’t enough for them. But Rook disagrees. It’s not kisses or love declarations but that’s okay. The gesture is enough for Rook. Lucanis, as he is, is enough for Rook. They don’t push him for more, they don’t need more than Lucanis is willing to give.
For me, this is just a beautiful scene and a beautiful romance. Lucanis has learned about romance from books and he can’t seem to do it right. He tried for the suave wall kiss but couldn’t go through with it. He tried making them dessert but couldn’t bring himself to profess it. And Rook is just going with the flow, letting him set the pace and taking the pressure off of him to try and meet the crazy standards of what romance is that is set by others. I love it so much.
Rings of Power is a vibe tbh. Entirely accurate? Ofc not. Kinda hard when you’re covering stuff spread over 2000 years min. But it’s still great and a super fun way to bring my family into Pre-Lotr stuff.
S1 took a while to grow on me but S2 was amazing. Loved it.
How people can mistakenly think or just subconsciously feel food works: there are “unhealthy” foods like pizza or fried chicken and “healthy” foods like fruit salad or steamed vegetables. Every time you eat an “unhealthy” food you’ve harmed yourself in some way.
How food actually works: foods contain carbs, proteins, fats, sugars, vitamins, minerals, fiber and/or other nutrients. Your body needs and uses all of them but it would like to have a little of everything every day. If you ate pizza or fried chicken for lunch then that’s probably your fat and protein for the day with extra that your body will make use of in time, so it’s a good idea to make your next meal something different like that fruit salad or steamed veggies. You can have that fatty lunch every single day if you just maintain balance and stay active enough to actually use what you’re stocking up on because foods aren’t “good or bad;” they just either fit into the rest of your diet and lifestyle or they don’t.
- thinking about the ghormans
- thinking about how all they wanted to do was protect their homeland
- thinking about how the empire invested so much time money and resources into their campaign against the ghormans
- thinking about how the ghormans were only doing their best and yet playing right into the empire’s hands.
ANYWAYS WIM GOT HIS JEDI/LIGHTSABER MOMENT NOT BECAUSE OF SOME LAST MINUTE FORCE SENSITIVE BULLSHIT REVEAL BUT BECAUSE HE’S A GENUINELY GOOD AND COMPASSIONATE PERSON WHO WANTS TO PROTECT OTHERS AND THAT MAKES HIM MORE OF A JEDI THEN JOD WILL EVER BE I KNOW THAT’S RIGHT
no ad is as powerful as a tumblr mutual who has a new hyperfixation
