ahhhhh nooo but imagine if the forest in acotar was treated like the forest in a lot of German folktales, especially the Black Forest which was inspiration for Hansel and Gretel (I've heard speculations that the witch in the woods was inspired by Baba Yaga considering the proximity to slavic nations), Repunzel and Sleeping Beauty
mayhaps it is a little bit of religious trauma i haven't unpacked yet but something that is so good to me is my f/o reminding me just how natural sex is... yesss tell me that this is a normal human desire, yesss tell me that it's normal for two people in love to want to be physical with each other, yesss tell me that we're two consenting adults and there's nothing wrong or shameful about it, yesss tell me that it's beautiful that i'm listening to my body and acting on my desires <333
Thinking of Odile liking wine not only because of the taste but because what it symbolizes...
A part of Christ she could actively consume every time there is mass. Something that could clean her up even temporarily. Feel like she wasn't alone. As long as she knew something or someone so pure and kind was part of her now.
She had to fight the urge to ask father Henrik if she could drink more of it along with the sacramental bread.
She just wanted to be cleansed inside out and pure and that was in her eyes the answer to her prayers...
Odile did have a moment of religious obsession before the fire...
SOMEONE GET EARTH A BONNET PLS HER POOR HAIR!!! Silk or satin bonnet with a silk or satin pillowcase! It helps keep your hair safe from stuff like tangling while you sleep. She shouldn’t have to deal with matting in her hair when she wakes up 😭 She deserves proper hair products too!
