These 23 seconds of local news from central Italy have literally become my favorite movie therefore I gave it English captions so that it could be shared with the rest of the world
Out of the dark the little boy came, hopeful and frightened, whispering over and over:
"Lyra—Lyra—Lyra..."
Why did the little boy keep calling Lyra's name?
Hope.
Wyllstarion au where they meet at 13 and Astarion’s dream became a bit true (they are still doomed).
This is also in reference to this post. I’m imagining for this au to make sense, Astarion is human but still under Cazador’s grasp. Somewhat similar to Victoria where Cazador has a unspecific ‘little plan’ for him. For the moment, Cazador parades Astarion as his son for publicity reasons I suppose. Wyll is relatively the same.
For angst purposes, I also imagine Wyll still makes Mizora’s pact and gets exiled. Then shortly after his exile, Astarion is officially made a spawn and they’re only reunited post-tadpolization. Doesn't that tie in nicely :)
