🤨🏳️🌈?
Started playing arknights just cause I wanted Chilaios cause I wanted to fuck around with them and… mind you in twenty pull
And I pledge to all the Lesbians, Farcille Enjoyers, and beyond that don’t wanna play Arknights I’ll get her skin just for yall 🫡🫡🫡
As much as I love seeing people gush over chilaios/laichil I feel like the more fluff side of the ship isn’t invested into apart from smut cause like them being domestic or just plain out being a couple apart from sex can be such a good source of ideas like how they around way other and with others present it makes me so 。 (゚´Д`゚)゚。
Dear humanity,
Please Help Me – My Son May Die at Any Moment.
I'm Amal, a mother of three children, living under the weight of the genocide taking place in Gaza. 🍉
Here’s my story, and I’m reaching out with a hopeful heart 💔✨, hoping someone will feel what my family and I are going through.
My son is suffering from a severe and life-threatening injury after being shot by Israeli drones. He urgently needs medical treatment outside Gaza.
Time is running out, and we are facing a critical situation. I am asking for your generosity to help us save him either through a donation or by sharing this urgent plea with others
I beg you, i kiss your feet, to help my son. My son may die at any moment
I lost most of my family. I'm afraid to lose my son too 🥺 .
So I humbly ask you to donate even a little or at least reblog my post.
Thank you for your compassion and kindness

I’ll be honest I truly don’t know how to help the people of Gaza outside of being able to spread awareness as I don’t have money to loose at the moment.
So I ask whoever sees this to please do everything you can be it spread awareness for the people suffering in this genocide.
As currently their fundraiser hasn’t gotten much for the total needed
this panel from the world guide of falin being surrounded by other girls while laios is all alone kills me because. that's it. that's the key difference in their journeys.
as laios states himself, he left the village in order to create a home for him and falin elsewhere. a home that won't collapse due to others' hatred and fears like their old home did, a home where they are loved and accepted unconditionally. but as he soon found out, even before earning money, or having walls surrounding him and a roof above his head- what he so earnestly desired was to meet other people who will accept him for who he is as well. instead, he kept being tormented by those around him, shunned and sneered at. his loneliness quickly became all-consuming until he truly had nothing left except for the monsters in the pages of his book, but even that became a target of mockery and destroyed. that's why ever since the day he left the village, he never felt that he truly made the right choice. so he kept running away: unable to resist and unable to accpet.
and an ocean away from him there was his sister, who never managed to fully fit in herself. but unlike him, she met a person who became a home to her and learned what a true friendship was for the first time in her life. and laios clearly realizes that too when he finally sees falin and marcille together, he can tell his sister obtained the greatest treasure there is on her own- the exact thing he never managed to find anywhere himself, thus coming back empty-handed to the sister he left the village for.
but when you read this part of the manga, laios's focus is on falin's loneliness, not his own. he talks about how it hurts thinking about all those moments she had to spend alone because he wasn't there for her, so it almost sounds like he's the one who couldn't bear her suffering and therefore decided to not let her go again. but we do get a glimpse of their first meeting after that almost-decade long separation in the manga, and then we see more of that in the world guide and daydream hour- and it becomes abundantly clear that it was falin who was trying to protect and save him from this pit of loneliness and depression he was in.
so instead of just doing his best to atone for leaving her behind in the village and making sure she is never lonely again, it might also be that laios was desperately clinging to the one person in the world he felt that accepted and loved him unconditionally. those words he used to describe his motivation to stay by falin's side are the exact words she would've used as well; she couldn't bear leaving him behind in this state. in a sense, they were each other's shackles.
but then she did. she died for him and their friends, and ironically enough, it was by leaving him alone like this that he was finally able to stand on his own and put his full trust in others. to have the courage to reveal who he is and give others the opportunity to accept him after such a long time of hiding. it was a long journey, but his hiding finally came to an end when he faced the others after shedding his monster form. and i love that the person who was falin's "home" all those years away from laios, marcille, became just as meaningful to him during their time separated from falin- the first one to find him and show him that he isn't alone anymore. just as he did for her.
so at the end of the story when falin talks about all the places she would like to go, it's not just that she wants to pursue her own dreams- but that she actually feels free to do so and go anywhere she desires. and one of the main reasons for that is that her brother finally found new people he wants to be with; his own home.
i feel like shit so can i show you guys my favourite minotaur statues/sculptures

Even more thoughts of this AU Huzzah. Anyways now with other characters, I like the thought of Laios and Chilchuck mostly being a duo act together for a long while before anyone else joins them to help, like Tade who one time when accompanying Izutsumi to the Touden’s place to hang out over heard both Laios and Chilchuck recognizing their music as she would listen to what they would upload online from time to time and becoming an honorary member helping them with social media and posting their music properly, helping them connect a bit more with modern audiences as Laios and Chilchuck don’t seem the kind to have socials or have shell accounts just to follow family, and Tade would be a good drummer.
And Toshiro who most likely trying to impress Falin learnt how to play Bass but wasn’t allowed to join her or Marcille’s band because Marcille didn’t like him. So he stopped playing for a while before one day had seen a post by Tade with her, Laios, and Chilchuck in it just promoting a new song and after a while of contemplating decided to ask Laios if he could be the bassist to his group which he said sure on after consulting Chilchuck who basically started living with him full time.
Thinking about modern band Au Laios. I feel that Laios compared to the others like Falin and Marcille who I think would be in their own possibly with other members like Izutsumi. He’d be something like idk more on the lines of Liana Flores or Mitski in a sense having more lullaby type of singing preferring not to join Flain and Marcille as they’re the types to deal with large groups instead staying to his own playing the synth making music on his own in his dump of an apartment he and Falin live in while she goes to college or something.
Chilchuck would probably be in a similar vain as a half foot being more sensitive to loud noise so he probably while working with Laios one day hears him singing a soft melody and joins him as he at one point also did music in an underground group playing the acoustic guitar and electric guitar.
I know it’s not hard to point out reactionaries hypocrisy when it comes to like safe spaces or hug boxes or whatever but genuinely how much of an echo chamber do you have to exist in for you to think this is a reasonable thing to say
Thinking about a world where it was Laios who got eaten and before Falin and the others where sent back he gave her his monster manual thinking he would die wanting her to have one of the few things that brought him such unbridled joy
