heres the thing. this is a relationship that should not exist. it is impractical, it is improbable. taako doesnt even mean for it to become a relationship. he wants to fuck with this guy who has a dumb accent and looks good in a suit, who wants to kill his friends, let’s throw him off balance, lets take him on a date.

and. oh. he’s….he’s nice? taako likes him? he’s. huh. he’s really nice. taako tells him shit and kravitz actually seems he wants to see him again.

and kravitz, kravitz is fascinated, because someone asking him on a date is the most interesting thing that’s happened to him in centuries, here’s this guy, here’s this guy who shouts at him and banters and ties him up in tentacles and then has the audacity to ASK HIM OUT, and well. how can he not say yes?

and that’s how it starts. so this is a relationship borne of like. accident. but thats not a bad thing. it’s spontaneous, it’s realizing that maybe the perfect person for you comes out of nowhere, that life is full of surprises, and one of the surprises is, oh, hello, here you are, how did i not know that i needed you.

the slowest of all slow fucking burns. this is love that kindles over decades. i dont think this is a relationship that could have happened in any other reality but the one they live in. the time it took before barry and lup could become the people who mean as much as they do to each other.

think about it. barrys human, lups an elf – they’re operating on completely different timescales. there’s another world where the hunger never attacks and they never intersect.

it takes barry HALF A FUCKIN CENTURY to make a move. and i bet. lup doesnt realize that she loves him for half as long, and then has no idea how to approach a relationship that matters. they’re already important to each other, right? they’re crewmates, friends, partners in magic and in research and in late night talks and laughter, to fuck this up? for a prospective relationship?

neither of them thinks its worth it, without some signal that the other person is interested. the thing is that they’re both stupid tho, so that takes forever to establish. but when they figure it out. well.

this is love like a fuckin’ flood. this is knowing the other person like the back of your hand, this is offering to kill your physical form just to hold the other person, this is two people who are SO EXTRA ABOUT EVERYTHING with compasses pointed true north at each other. this is a love that took a lifetime to establish, a love that endures lifetimes.

this is love at first sight, tbh, this is “you’re it for me, hon.” this is magnus falling fast and hard because there’s this beautiful woman with SICK guns who BEATS HIM AT A FIGHT and she’s funny and makes fun of him and oh god he falls so hard he sees stars. but here’s a situation where rushing in wont help him, here’s him having to wait for her.

on julia’s side: terror that she likes him so quickly, wonder that she likes this stranger. she doesnt want a boyfriend, julia wants out of her hometown, julia wants to go on an adventure. then shit goes down in ravens roost, and both magnus and julia learn something about adventure and the world and what can happen to the places you love.

this is love grasped from the arms of tragedy (this is revolution, this is fire and blood and overthrowing, this is two leaders of a movement hand in hand, this is love forged in flames)

and maybe, maybe that leads to people getting married to young, having not nearly enough time together, maybe creates a love cut short at the height of its passion. they should have had time, is the thing. they were still enamored with one another, there wasnt time for them to really settle into the relationship, for it to become easy and comfortable, there’s never going to be that time.

no one said this wasn’t a tragedy.
