getting compliments from npcs on my horse is so satisfying; yes, I brush him before and after every ride, he gets endless pets and treats, I love him, Thank you for noticing <3

oh how the tables have turned

Thinking about how, whether he is conscious of it or not, Armand has already partially broken the cycle of abuse he was subjected to, simply by not turning Daniel when he was young.

The precise nature of Armand's very existence is a permanent reminder of what he was forced to live through, regardless of if he even has the ability to process the trauma in the first place. If he so much as catches his reflection out of the corner of his eye, he is reminded of the coveting and commodification of his youth and how the most innocent time of his life was weaponised against him. He is frozen there. His face looks so innocent because it creates a satisfying contrast with his actions narratively, but its also because he was. He was innocent. And that was stolen from him by selfish, greedy people who pretended their actions were out of love.

By letting Daniel go (assuming Devil's Minion era happened in the seventies), Armand protected him from this. Daniel experienced his entire youth and what it was like to age out of it without the fear of no longer having value like Armand did, and then came adulthood. He has lived to an age that Arun never could have dreamt of, that Amadeo was forced to realise, at one point, he would never experience, not in the human sense at least. He'll never have lines on his face like Daniel does. His worry lines and smile lines will never deepen. He won't develop crow's feet from squinting in the sun, which turned its back on him long ago anyway. His hair will never grey. Marius made certain of that.

But Daniel got to have all of that. His beloved got to live his life, fuck it up over and over and make a million mistakes. He had the freedom and the agency to do it. Armand will not see it, but he gave Daniel exactly what was taken from him so long ago. He is not just evil. He does not destroy everything. He gave Daniel the real gift, and now they get to move onto the next stage of Daniel's life together (after a couple seasons of slow burn I would imagine).

Just as he sees the tragedy of his past on his own face, he sees the potential he has to be different on Daniel's. He has immortalised true beauty in Daniel. The beauty of having lived a long life.

ohhh having a job is actually ruining my life.  ok

Promo photoshoot for IWTV season 3 question mark?? But seriously, if the actors do something like that — I might perish.

armand hyperfixation so bad it’s got me listening to random ass 80’s music on some random spotify character playlist made for him

I find it funny that no matter who you ship Arthur with, some of the most popular ships are him with a dark haired absolute baddie. I’m a firm believer that Arthur is a sucker for dark haired women and/or men (whatever sexuality you believe he is)

… and an extra plus if they’re either widows, in need of any sort of assistance or/and have no or a strained relationship with their immediate family.

picking LINT??? off the SOFA???????
