hc.   rakan cares about xayah. rakan cares about xayah. rakan cares about xayah. this is something i have to stress, namely because if there's one thing i know rakan is willing to do, it's absolutely anything for xayah. there's the fact xayah knows him well enough to say "rakan doesn't take death well," and whether or not that's in general or not, rakan is still able to kill if xayah were so to say it. even then, he doesn't ever lose how charismatic he is—he doesn't lose sight of himself, because not only is he comfortable with himself, but he knows that it's himself that xayah fell in love with. just as he's fallen for xayah bc of who she is. she might not be as emotionally intelligent as rakan, she might push herself to her limits and rakan absolutely hates it when she doesn't stop to take care of herself, but rakan still loves her. he supports her. he'd die for her across any verse if he were forced to do so. it's an unquestionable truth that no matter what, rakan cares deeply about her, just as she does for him. that even through the pain they both go through, emotionally, he's there to support her, just as she's there to support him, and that's an important aspect of their relationship that shouldn't be forgotten.

additionally, rakan is NEVER going to take off the skull with xayah's feathers. ever. this is more specific to a verse where he's lost xayah ( as in, she's dead ), but the point stands even in the verse where he's together with her: he's not taking it off. to him, it's not just the memories of the times he spent with her, it's also proof of their love. it's evidence that they were meant to be, that what they had? it was real, by fucking god it was real and no one's taking that from him. this is dwelling so much into a verse where he's lost her but i like. promise. it's deadass not something he's willing to negotiate, if rakan's to love again—if he can even find that strength himself to trust in someone that much again and be assured he doesn't fail them too—they have to accept not just him, but him and xayah. rakan is unequivocally connected with xayah, even after death. no one, no one is taking that away from him.

“How does it feel Got no one on your side It isn’t how it is really meant to be

How did it ever come to this I thought I’ll never see you again Once the stars were scattered in pieces all over the galaxy”

              there's no use in seeking to draw ire from man whose armor gave him appearance of a fortress,     man whose axe is great than his own head.     should opportunity arise,     an opportune moment to pester stranger,     it shall be graciously taken   !     that may only open gates for danger to sneak through,     act as looming threat over rakan's person     ———     the prospect could be considered terrifying,     but he is rakan.     he finds it entertaining,     knowing himself to be more agile than this fortress man.     life is much too short for him to worry about danger sticking to his side     (   was it not always there   ?     was it not something he grew accustomed to   ?     he does not fear danger's sharp claws digging into his flesh,     for it'll never draw out that gory wine it desires so.     rakan will escape it every single time.   )

              ❛     that's way too big an axe you got there   !     ❜     perchance too excited to make such a bold statement.     brows rise in intrigue,     a hum emits from throat,     elongated as he thoroughly perceives the weapon     ...     then the facial attributes,     as if looking for a sign.     has he succeeded   ?     no   ?     ❛     are yoooouu     ...     compensating for something   ?     ❜     small curve at the corner of his lips.     he's far too prepared for this.       ///       @ofostia

this is @feyquil​ asking me to play sett just to suplex him for a fucking icon

unprompted.     /     always accepting   !!

@iixesha​ said :   Scratches behind his ear. For science reasons

              ❛     huh   ?     ❜     he's not used to it,     having someone else scratch behind his ears.     sure,     they were as fluffy as they looked    &    certainly deserving of anyone's attention,     though what more captivating than his feathers he puts on display for all to marvel at   ?     sure,     his ears got some form of attention,     no matter how small,     but for them to be scratched   ?     nope,     that's new.     oh,    &    an itch he previously didn't have becomes apparent once ekko's fingers scratch behind his ears.     ❛     hold on,     lil bit more to the left     ———     too far.     more to the right,     aaaaaand     ...     ❜     there,     there's that damn itch   !!     ❛     right there   !     i could scratch it myself,     but i've got long nails.     don't wanna end up hurtin' my beautiful ears in the process,     y'know   ?     ❜

what’s your muses’ position?
