Episode 3 Kinn
Welcome to my thoughts on the development we see in Kinn during ep3 because pre-kiss Kinn is one of my favorite things.
Personally, I think it's obvious at this point that Kinn is physically attracted to Porsche. There were some subtle hints about it in episode 2, like him checking the booty out or checking Porsche in the suit out.
In episode 2 Kinn has probably convinced himself that his attraction to Porsche is purely physical and is thanking heavens when Tankhun takes him away, because he's afraid that the attraction would become emotional.
Kinn's logical reasoning probably was on FIRE with all the reasons against liking Porsche. One, he's inobedient and constantly causes chaos. Two, he's his employee. Three, Kinn's trust issues are pointing him in the direction of prioritizing business and his family over his love life.
Now what Kinn didn't catch up with yet was his emotional side. He might not be 100% aware of it, but he also let Porsche go to Tankhun to protect him, because he's managed to nearly get himself killed by the minor family.
Now when Porsche is with Tankhun, he continues to be a nuisance. But Kinn's irritation at him for showing Tankhun porn turns into fascination at him for taking Tankhun out of the compound after years.
At this point, Porsche is a force drawing Kinn in. He just can't escape him.
What ultimately makes Kinn aware that he wants to protect Porsche is when he moves him out of the bullet's way. It's the first action he does out of pure fear for Porsche's life that doesn't hurt Porsche.
After this event, I feel like Kinn knows there's something there, but is still afraid of it and negating it.
This brings me to my final point and that is that Kinn wasn't completely sober when he kissed Porsche. He clearly wasn't as drunk as Porsche, but I don't think he would get the true courage to do it without alcohol in his system.
For Kinn that was in the moment decision, driven by his confused feelings, hope and a genuine conversation about his thoughts and feelings which he probably didn't let himself have for years.
I loved Kinn's development in episode 3 and I just wish episode 4 didn't end the way it did. I'm aware what kind of show it was and I'm not here to moralize when we all know what happend was wrong and has no excuse. I'm just here to say that given episode 3 Kinn, I would love to see them have a different beginning.
That's all. -mic drop-

luke skywalker ship headcanons 2 (clothes sharing edition)
biggsluke def share clothes. biggs gives no fucks and steals lukes robes and whatnot because he cant be bothered to find his own clothes. luke does the same with whatever biggs wears
dinluke dont share clothes. i dont think theyd really fit each others stuff tbh and i also think that luke would view it as some kind of possessive act and therefore wrong (its bc din is v possessive) (i think itd be fun if din forced luke to try on his armor but also like armor is sacred so idk if luke would be able to give it back)
skysolo... hm.... i think luke borrows hans clothes bc of convenience esp in anh. i have a hard time seeing them as anything but fuckbuddies im ngl so idk lol. han would be repulsed by the idea of wearing lukes clothes for sure
landoluke......... lando likes to dress luke up in fancy shmancy get ups. luke goes along with it because its fun. ig that technically means they dont share? bc the clothes would be lukes? lando is a guy who likes nice things and luke is included in that. theyd share capes tho
wedgeluke yall still aint told me their dynamic. maybe clothe stealing out of spite? "wedge was an ass yesterday so im taking his favorite shirt its mine now" type shit. "luke skipped dinner again so im gonna take the pants that make his ass look fantastic" ive decided to interpret their relationship as vaguely assholeish to eachother like a toned down/ funnier han and leia :333

Prince Jenson of Somerset
+ process & lore
Yayyyyy omg finally have drawn portraits of the four main characters!!!! I'll show the process of Jenson's first and then them all four together. Though it's a shame the Seb/Fernando ones are older, I think it's hopefully obvious how much I've improved since November?
Look at him in all his handsome, princely glory 🥹 It's funny, I'm always happy with the second sketch and initial lineart, and then I start coloring it and I absolutely hate it, and it takes a significant amount of time into the painting for me to like it again. And then I reach a certain point and I'm in love with it again. Ugh though I gotta say, I love drawing the curls, it's just so 18th century, but at the same point, man I always will love my original lineart for the hair the best ah. Also yes I absolutely had to give him a big ass hat with feathers, he really is that kinda guy to me. I originally drew a bicorne and then realized that those don't really exist until basically almost a century later oops, so tricorne it is!!
Okay now omg look at them all together 🥹
Haha wow I have improved a lot! Just like the Seb/Fernando ones, Mark and Jense's were meant to be put together. I think there's a lot of inherent characterization in their poses that highlight the difference between them. Mark is looking up, very wistful, looking up to greater people, greater things. Jenson's head is tilted down, almost looking at the viewer, he is very satisfied with his role and revels in it, he's here to slay!
Okay, yes, lore, characterization, sorry that it is so far down on the post!!
Jense would probably be the fan favorite if this AU was an actual book or show or something. He's the guy you randomly find while browsing Wikipedia and you're like, woah this guy is so cool??? Unlike Sebmarknando, he doesn't really have the same level of angst, he's kinda just chilling. He's a bit harder to write a lore post about, because he's basically that character who is always magically around the corner, ready to witness some crazy thing and just breeze past it.
He is less linked to Seb than people like Mark and Fernando, because he's basically just his personal minister of transportation(read: horse fucker), so he avoids a lot of the relationship complications and drama, but that isn't to say he's completely uninvolved. He really likes Seb, and loves to hang around with him and serve him, but he's not as beholden to him. He's who everyone goes to air their grievances or to get away from the others, and he's very happy with this role. He's generally willing to play any side in an argument, but does tend to have a pretty big soft spot for Seb overall(Seb also gives him cuteness aggression, and he wants to bite him. Especially when Seb puffs himself up and acts super bratty when he gets offended at not being seen as a proper ruler.)
He's royalty from other kingdom, but pledged his loyalty to Seb's kingdom when he was quite young and has served him(his father first) ever since. He started off somewhat low in the military, rose to a pretty high rank, was a renowed war hero, and then ended up retiring pretty early to tend to Seb's horses. That's an oversimplification, but yeah. He liked the military life, was very good at it, but decided he had done enough, and wanted to be involved in more direct service, albeit more laid back. As I mentioned in Mark's post, Mark *really* doesn't understand his choice to do this, because if Mark had been in Jense's position, he can't ever imagine being able to let all that go and living the quiet life.
He is the palace whore, everyone has been with him honestly. It'll be like, some man walks into his bedroom, only to see Jenson in bed with his wife, but instead of being angry, he's like "wow you couldn't even wait for me??" He's just very carefree, and happy to just slut around and tend to Seb's horses.
I think he definitely still advises Seb, and would go to battle if truly need be, but generally seems to be living in a different world than the weird psychosexual homoerotic political drama that the others seem to be living in. But as I said, it's not like he doesn't contribute to it! He loves to goad Fernando, and constantly plays devil's advocate in "debates" between Fernando and Seb. He's also obviously the one that keep "accidentally" locking them in rooms and forgetting where the key is.
Sorry if this isn't very explanatory, I hope it gives a general idea to the type of character he is???? As always, let me know if you have any questions! I kinda struggled on what to write here because I'm finishing this at almost 8 am 😭 so I'm not sure if it's great or not. But basically you need to know: horse fucker who is generally breezy and carefree but also can be a bit of a menace to society every once in a while.

you asked for stuff to draw so !!! I would love to see some slider content, maybe some mav angst too if you're up for it I love a good bloody/hurt mav
OH MY GOD THANK YOU! I give you my first ever Slider sketch! I've never drawn him before! (he needs to stop looking at me with them big 'ol Bambi eyes.)
might have to draw this guy again,, there's something about the shape of his skull.... something about his nose...
ok just to preface, i really really really tried to draw angsty Mav, but nothing (and i mean NOTHING) was working. Like i tried and tried. And bloody/hurt Mav was just not happening. So instead i give you this.
he's sad :(
(it's that weird pic of tom cruise with his hands aggressively in his pockets. but now. he's sad.) (Sorry no actual bloody/angsty Mav. my hands did not catch the memo from my brain) (sigh i'll try again soon)
