Wait is his name really Airk. Is that not a joke

thinking about kit and graydon being best friends in modern au. they grow up together as family friends and neither of them are quite as social as airk, so as they start school they kind of just start to stick together. and then as they get older they just become inseparable despite being total opposites. kit goes to all of graydon's music things and graydon goes to as many of kit's sports things as possible (i firmly believe kit was a three sport athlete during high school in this au so thats a lot of sports games so there's no way he could make it to everything). kit beat up all of graydon's bullies in middle school and graydon forces kit to be emotionally vulnerable every once in awhile. they got drunk at a prom afterparty and promised that if they were both single at 35 they'd just get married and live together as best friends. they end up going to the same university for undergrad and they still stick together through everything. they are each other's ride or die. they will do anything for each other. they vent about their parents to each other, graydon is one of three people who's ever seen kit cry, kit is quite literally the only person who's seen graydon express any bad opinion about anyone. kit was there when graydon's brother died and graydon was there when kit's dad left. i'm rambling at this point but i'm just having thoughts

Oh don't get me wrong, I adore Jade with all my heart. I'm just too excited with the possibility of a love triangle between three women. And not just any women but the chosen one, the heir/princess and the knight. It's juicy and I haven't seen it done in any other show. I do think Airk will most likely survive but I'm also certain that Elora doesn't feel for him and that she's just enamored with the idea of him.

Kit though, she is clearly the one Elora has connected with the most in the whole show, firstly through hatred and jealousy and then it seems that they genuinely found common ground. Idk if I'm reading too much into it but they connect and take a leap of faith together, and it's interesting how Elora's all about "love being stronger than anything" in the first episode and then when they have to jump, it's that what pushes her to believe and overcome the obstacle that is the Shattered Sea, meaning that Kit and Elora's love and connection is stronger than anything. (Don't mind me I just like headcanoning shit in my head and maybe this is just too much of a reach).

Now if they got engaged, I think Elora would slowly start falling for Kit (while Kit's in a relationship with Jade but they have to pretend for the public) because let's be honest, Kit's magnetic and she's just someone that challenges Elora and makes her a better person. And Elora needs her and needs someone who can push her to her limits like Kit would do, like she's done the whole season. They just have that spark that Graydon and Elora lack, imo.

God I'm sorry for sending you so many asks, I'm just interested in your point of view!

Never apologise for the asks, its always fun to theorize about characters!

It would be pretty fun to have a wlw love triangle, but i tend to find them hard to watch, cause i'm polyamorous, and usually shows go for the "You cannot love more than one person, you have to chose!" way and it just sucks. Like this is a tv show, you can make your characters poly, nothing is stopping you. So i always hate when they lose good opportunities and just go with either someone dies or someone gives up to solve their triangles. Its lazy writing.

Now. Kit having two girlfriends? Thats something i can get behind. The princess who is always chosen as a second option, the left behind one, ending up chosen by two? Jade, loving someone who loves her back, trusting in that love. And with Elora there, she doesnt have to feel bad for leaving for knight training or family visits. Kit having Elora to rule with, both of them trusting each other, the heart and soul of the kingdom (we all know none of them have a braincell, thats why they need Jade). Elora have someone that cares about her, not about her history or legacy. Kit have someone that will call her out on her bullshit, but always be there for her.

I got so much more thoughts about them, but this is enough for now. Final point is just that i want Jade to be happy, and a poly couple is the best way to make everyone (including myself) happy!
