Listen I get it. I get that "A Pair of Brown Eyes" is about an old man reliving memories of war and reminiscing about his old love etc but you cannot deny that these lyrics are super gay
In blood and death neath a screaming sky
I lay down on the ground
And the arms and legs of other men
Were scattered all around
Some cursed, some prayed, some prayed then cursed
Then prayed and bled some more
And the only thing that I could see
Was a pair of brown eyes that was looking at me
But when we got back, labeled parts one to three
There was no pair of brown eyes waiting for me
Right okay?
I looked at him he looked at me
All I could do was hate him
While Ray and Philomena sang
Of my elusive dream
I saw the streams, the rolling hills
Where his brown eyes were waiting
And I thought about a pair of brown eyes
That waited once for me
RIGHT? OKAY??
AND THEN HE GOES A'ROVIN' FOR A PAIR OF BROWN EYES?
OKAY????

I looked at him, he looked at me,

That waited once for me.
... is such a searingly traumatic & homoerotic verse that you’d think it was from a siegfried sassoon poem or a wilfred owen poem or a pat barker novel about siegfried sassoon’s & wilfred owen’s poetry, but nope! it’s just christy moore rescuing another pogues song

My friend described Caviar as having "doe-eyes" and I've been calling them that ever since

Anders: You know what our camp needs?
Gale, amused: Does it rhyme with bat or rat by chance?
Anders: Look, all I'm saying is that we made room for the dog. We made room for the owlbear.
Gale: That, we did.
Anders: Would it be such a stretch to have a cat in camp? Come on! Just one. [Then, in a mumbled voice.] Or two. Maybe even three.
Gale: Anders...
Anders: Gale...
Gale: Is now really the best time to take on that added responsibility?
Anders: Now is the perfect time! You know, I expected this sort of resistance from the others but never from you.
Gale: Hey now, do we really need to go there? Weaponizing my love for a good feline companion against me?
Anders: To think that you once bragged to me about having a cat, but to deny my request for one... *shakes head* The utter betrayal.
Gale: Oh, come now.
Anders: Please?
Gale: Is this really—
Anders: 🥺
Gale: ...
Gale: Alright, fine.
Anders: Yes!
Gale, massaging his temple: Tara is going to kill me.

still mad that we didn't get Vecna possessing Steve. haha silly Steve who asks stupid questions and everyone dunks on as if he's not an athlete and one of the better combatants in the group. Steve, who knocked out a trained soldier at 19. Steve, who has been beaten to hell every season and gotten right back up afterwards. just goofy old Steve.
but what if Steve wasn't actually Steve anymore?

Who does Rowan marry??
Rowan eventually marries the third son of the then Lord Templeton, Steffon Templeton. Rhea wanted her to marry inside the Vale to stengthen her ties there and to make sure Rowan's position as the second consecutive ruling Lady of Runestone remains uncontested.
Steffon is slightly socially awkward, stemming from a more bookish nature and his inability to live up to the expectations placed on him (being good at and enjoying hitting stuff with a weapon) and before his parents were approached over a match to Rowan, he had hoped that they might finally give in and sent him to the Citadel.
He was pretty sure that the betrothal would be called off eventually since he considered himself far from the ideal husband material for the daughter of Prince Daemon but apparently him essentially being the polar opposite of her father was very appealing to Rowan.
(my current fc for Steffon is the dude that plays Prince Eric in the recent little mermaid movie. He just looks very soft and very sad most of the time and that's very Steffon.)

People making human versions of Angel Dust should maybe learn that there's other kinds of heterochromia except for the blue/brown one.
