which fairytale archetype are you?
Tumblr media
the long-suffering knight
“Lancelot is: […] Probably sadistic or he would not have taken such frightful care to be gentle. […] 6. Ferociously punitive to his own body. He denies it and slave-drives it. 7. Devoted to ‘honour,’ which he regards as keeping promises and ‘having a Word.’ He tries to be consistent. 8. Curiously tolerant of other people who do not follow his own standards. He was nor shocked by the lady who was naked as a needle. 9. Not without a sense of humour. It was a good joke dressing up as Kay. And he often says amusing things. 10. Fond of being alone. 11. Humble about his athleticism: not false modesty. 12. Self-critical. Aware of some big lack in himself. What was it? 13. Subject to pity, cf. no. 3. 14. Emotional. He is the only person Mallory mentions as crying from relief. 15. Highly strung: subject to nervous breakdowns. 16. Yet practical. He ends by dealing with the Guinevere situation pretty well. He is a good man to have with you in a tight corner. […]18. Human. He firmly believes that for him, it is a choice between God and Guinevere, and he takes Guinevere. He says: This is wrong and against my will, but I can’t help it. […] People he was like: 1. Lawrence of Arabia, 2. A nice captain of the cricket, 3. Parnell, 4. Sir W Raleigh, 5. Hamlet, 6. Me, 7. Prince Rufant, 8. Montros, 9. Tony Ireland or Von Simm […] or whatever, 10. Any mad man, 11. Adam.” — TH White. Torn between guilt and devotion, he represents the late medieval anxiety of whether equal devotion to one's lady and one's liege is possible. He loves both, so he must lose both. He can only end the story happy if he either refuses to indulge his temptation or leaves this world – either for heaven or the fairy realm.

"Oh, it's no problem at all." He simply laughed off her concern for him. Not wanting her to fret about something that isn't much of a big deal in his eyes, but still appreciative for her need to look out for the courier. Buck usually does fine in colder temperatures, since his body tends to stay on the warmer side, it's his colleagues that he worries about. It was a simple gesture that he would have done for anybody, he only hoped that she would understand his other purpose.
He almost wanted to sling his arm around her shoulder and bring her closer to him, but he respected their boundaries and the last thing he wanted to do was make the brunette uncomfortable with his gesture. He liked Kira, very much, and would like to pursue a possible relationship with her, but only when it was right by her.
The pair walked down a cracked sidewalk near Freeside, passing many of the locals as they went about their day. It was always a treat to spend some time with each other. The two of them are often busy with their own respective line of work, so time like this is always a treasure to Buck. He just hoped to make it a bit more special.
Then he remembered.
"Actually, I just recall hearing about this new coffee house that opened up not too far from here," He honestly wasn't that much of a coffee drinker, but he knew Kira always enjoyed them in between her work schedule. Besides, he could always substitute it with a tea or hot chocolate. Plus, from what he heard out of the mouths of others; they had the best apple dumplings this side of Nevada, and he'd been more than eager to try them out for himself. "Perhaps, we could stop by for a moment and get something to warm you up?"
"My treat." His grin was easy but the noticeable shade of red that seemed to cover his pale face had betrayed his relaxed demeanor and showed his romantic intentions.
[ jacket ] (If you're still doing these ^^)
ORDINARY THINGS THAT FEEL INTIMATE
[ jacket ] sender takes their jacket off and hangs it on receiver's shoulders
"Oh please- you don't have to do that..."
Kira protests the action as Buck drapes his jacket over her shoulders. Ever smiling, it was enough to keep her warm. She'd been wearing her own jacket as well, but she'd still been quivering. Her nose bright red and her palms rubbing together.
"..... Aren't you gonna get cold?"
His look is insistent, as if Buck could ever get cold! It's what you did for ladies! It was the polite thing to do!
Kira watches him skeptically, expecting him to begin trembling any moment now. As if his sunshine could ever be dimmed.
After a few moments, she relaxes into the beat up coat.
Smells like primrose and leather.
