the SEDUCE HIM option was... yeah. I am so glad nobody walked into the office during that because that was steamy as all get out. We own the Tower and we own him, so cough it up, Zayne.
/shoves him off the couch and onto the blissfully cool floor for the next three hours
Zayne's kisses are magical. I didn't think of champagne corks even once.
I had to look up the word "kuudere" and yes, absolutely. the boy has smitten mittens and i can only be sad for him in timelines where i'm an idiot child.
I didn't catch that the route Aengru was calculating was Z-BIRTHDAY coded. That's super interesting and yes, would pretty specifically point to our "present" timeline and its ultimate destruction past Doctor and Dawnbreaker's times. Is it possible that when we die in this timeline, that's when Zayne created the portals to link the present world to Niava and took us there to reincarnate in a safe place? And that why when our world finally collapses under its fate, he was trying to sever that link to keep us trapped in that paradise?
I have a tendency to want to conflate all the boyfriends route/paths into a single narrative but I do know that really doesn't work, I promise. I just get excited about the parallels and the cross-contamination, when really its all a flaky croissant of layers stacked on top of buttery layers. But we know from the main story that they DO exist around each other, its not completely separate at all, so there has to be SOME way this all links together, right? Even if Xavier and Rafayel's paths do seem to contradict Zayne's at times.
But then again, Zayne's path is literally above the others, he's in charge of all worlds and all paths - even if Rafayel is a god, he's a god of a single ... I want to say world, but maybe its more 'facet'. And he's more of an avatar of the Deep, is he not?
/gets deep into the metaphysical weeds
one day i will build that damned mind map to link off of this stuff together - it breaks my brain in the best way, honestly, i love thinking about this stuff on work time.
