#they are desi and you know it

I love how in every fanart I see, the Vackers are brown. 

Like we as a fandom just decided they aren't white, and it's fantastic because they absolutely aren't.

"same sex marriage denied by sc-"

you don't understand love, do you? you never did. my queer lil inner girl got so happy for a second tho. the one who secretly watched section 377 go down thus decriminalizing her lil existence but was too scared to celebrate it in front of everyone outside who were shaking their heads and spewing hatred against the queers and the historic judgement

Also guys now that we are all past the monarchal summit can I please talk about my favourite possible unlikely duo with sweetheart and porter as frenemies like im picturing it rn cause Porter will probably stick around now that he’s back in America and I’m sure he’d still be snooping around doing Williams business so pls consider him constantly running into sweetheart just trying to do their job except this guy just keeps popping up being annoying

"You never loved me." She wails, her eyes a bleeding red that he can't face. She's kneeling at his feet and he's frozen in the light of the accusation that marks his skin whipped with every word.

She doesn't see it, of course. Her grief and ache blinds her.

He kneels, eyes burning with tears as he holds her as desperately as she sobs. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

His and her pain are both entwined and it's a physical ache in his heart.

"You are the perpetrator of the universe," she says,"Help me. I beg of you. Please."

He holds her tighter still, for she needs to be held together as she breaks apart. "I am here. Here. I won't leave you. I will never leave you. I will always, always be with you."

"Then love me!" She screams, and the kaustubh jewel on his chest leaves an impression on her forehead as she slumps in his arms. "Protect me! Let me be happy. Please, just love me, please, please. Please. Love me."

She's sniffling as he begs her to believe him. Believe in him. "I do. I've loved you for yugs, I've loved you since before you were born, I've loved you before you knew of me and I will love you even if you never love me. You are a part of me. I love you, beyond illusions and beyond doubt."

Her nails are leaving tiny red scraps down his arms but she's trembling still. "You are a God. How can you ever love me?"

"I am your Krishna first." He says and she sobs harder.

It's guilt instead of grief now, but he holds her all the same.

Sam having an accent could mean a couple of things:

He went to an English medium school in Pakistan and then moved to England for uni

He frequently moves between England and pakistan for reasons unknown

He moved to England when he was a child and then after the Magnus incident his parents moved him back to pakistan and so he came back to England for uni

Hard to be intimidating during an argument when I start violently sobbing as soon as they raise their voice at me.
