hello! talk to me about thorfinn and einar vs thorfinn and canute (i love both of them)!!
Sorry for the belated reply!! Life just gets in the way sometimes :(
Aaand I love both, too!!
But if you want me to compare the two, the amount of drawings I’ve drawn for one ship versus the other is already a good indicator as to which one I prefer. So yeah, ultimately, I lean towards thornute a bit.
The thing is, EiToru are incredibly sweet, wholesome, good vibes only. I love the whole process of Einar making Thorfinn see the beauty in the world again and helping him find his reason to live, and forgive himself and move on from his sins and trauma. It’s so beautiful and I can’t exactly describe it, but Thorfinn’s childlike innocence coupled with Einar’s gentle giant, himbo energy is so bdfnksjfkdjfkxbnsfjekdnrjej. And their size difference is SO delicious omg.
On the other hand, the Thornute dynamic is so much more nuanced to me. Even though they have fewer scenes together, the ones they have are always very pivotal. They are narrative counterparts, each other’s antitheses. They have opposite ideologies but share the same goal, they are two sides of the same coin who cannot coexist, but they cannot exist without the other, either. I love how their development always hinges on the other’s. I love that they are both obstinate and kind of “radical” about their worldviews until the world proves them otherwise.
They also scratch many “classic” ship trope itches I have (i.e.: sun and moon, king and bodyguard etc.). But ultimately, the thing that makes me like it more is the drama. The tension. The unspoken yearning.
EiToru meet every day and are normal about their relationship. Thornute meet once in a year and make it everyone’s problem.
The thing about Thornute is that… honestly? They are kinda bad for each other. And they are pretty much doomed by the narrative. But and at the same time, they are also perfect for each other.
And that’s what makes them so delicious to me.

You guys like making my posts blow up so much how about you blow up this: I'm a queer neurodivergent writer who needs advice on how to make some fucking money with that because I don't understand capitalism and I'm too afraid to ask.

My parents spent a few Hours last night trying to figure out if the door got put on wrong during the work on our kitchen because "it just feels wrong" "it's like the walls have gotten closer together why is it sticking out so far when it opens now"
I walk in there to get a drink. Immediately "the counters are like 3cm wider it's pushed the fridge slightly to the left so now the door points to the fridge when it opens and it makes the room look smaller"
Mum stares at me blankly and goes "why did it take them 22 years to diagnose you"

God I hate voting season in the UK like I'll never vote Tory but it sure is depressing that the alternative is a guy whose entire campaign is basically the Bart Simpson "we demand MORE asbestos! More asbestos! More asbestos!"

Actually - and this is going to sound insane to those of you who are on the "it's not dark at 5pm anymore I can finally breathe" camp - I wonder if the days getting longer again and the UK clocks going forward is part of why I've felt my mood going down like. Shdhsh. May -> August IS always my worst time of year.

Was really really brave today and got up and cleaned and did laundry and planned some productive shit and spent time downstairs with mum and she hits me with the "I saw X from your old school today she's buying a house! It made me really sad for you because I wish you had it all together like that." And I know she meant to convey sympathy but.

hate that the cultural backslide has been so intense that now my dad earnestly tells me "did you know we're not allowed to call them easter eggs anymore they're renaming them gesture eggs" and I have to smile sympathetically at him and ask "did they say that on bbc news or did the mean, nasty internet try to scare you by telling you woke was stealing easter?"
