Took another week, but faaaaak I'm very pleased with my first attempt at baby.
I don't know how a centuries old dragon can be cute baby to protecc at all cost... And swoon-worthy at the same time. But here we are, and if anyone hurts Vrtra I will rage.

tw: death and trauma mentions.
A POST EXPLORING Y//UTA & R//IKA.
monster gf jokes aside, y//uta really was traumatized by r//ika’s death and all the events thereafter and only has just begun to deal with unpacking that very real and heavy trauma. despite “her” moving on, the part of her that he unintentionally cursed, that didn’t suddenly mean he had closure or that HE has properly moved on (and im not speaking romantic terms at all, that’s a whole other thing i’ll talk about later in this). but he never truly had time to grieve the actual girl because she immediately became a curse and brought with her “rebirth” an entire new level to the trauma he was facing by seeing her die in front of him.
so when i see ppl either saying “he c(sh)ould move on with xyz” or “he’s with r//ika forever” i think neither statement is entirely accurate to what should / will happen. he doesn’t need to fall in love with someone else to move on from the whole r//ika incident (thats just displacing feelings and not healthy for him or a future partner) nor is he in in love with r//ika the curse spirit, albeit being still very fond of her presence and feeling affectionate and so on. i would go so far as to say he still feels himself “committed” to her, in some capacity but that it’s more or less perhaps a coping mechanism and a default that he Will eventually move on from as he grows and finds himself.
but back to the “romantic / love” aspect i see discussed a lot, and even spoke by y//uta in canon. it must be remembered that they were Children when they knew one another. their love was very pure and innocent, that is not incorrect, but it was also in a very childish manner. declaring they will marry and all of these things without entirely grasping the concept of what it means to be married and so on. it is not the same as being in love when capable of understanding the actual complexities. so to transplant those childish feelings onto a much older y//uta is a bit... weird to put lightly and incorrect. i think we must remember he was also only just beginning to understand his dynamic with r//ika after joining the jj world. up until then he WAS afraid of her and he WAS still (being) traumatized by her. so while, especially early on, he might have also been confused exactly with what he was feeling and confused it for a similar sort of love, it’s not that. not really.
i think, too, there is a bit of romanticism by the fandom overall on their dynamic. the fact that he cursed r//ika out of some sense of “he loved her that much”... that isn’t a very romantic notion nor is it really what happened in that moment. and y//uta himself would certainly disagree with that as well. he did not want to do that. a curse is a curse and it’s called as such for a reason. it’s important also to understand that the curse, while perhaps being partly fueled by / from his love for her and desire for her not to abandon him, was actually born from the extremely negative and traumatic event of her dying in front of him in a (i would say) fairly brutal manner. so i mean to say for clarification, he did not curse her from some sort of “obsessive love” or anything of the sort. it was the extremely disturbed and distressed emotions that he felt at the notion of being abandoned by her as well as just generally experiencing the loss of her death in real, horrific time.
i’ve got more to say but i’ll put it in another post but for now have this.

You know how in Mulan, Chien-Po sings “I couldn’t care less what she’ll wear or what she looks like. It all depends on what she’ll cook like beef, pork, chicken!”
I really relate to that on a spiritual level.

Already it seemed years to Pippin since he had sat there before, in some half-forgotten time when he had still been a hobbit, a light-hearted wanderer touched little by the perils he had passed through. Now he was one small soldier in a city preparing for a great assault, clad in the proud but sombre manner of the Tower of Guard.
