WEDDING. LET’ GO ANON

In addition to finding out where in Africa her ancestors were abducted into slavery, Mary Moran discovered the meaning of the Mende song: a processional hymn for the final farewell to the spirit, it was sung in Senehun Ngola by women as they prepared the body of a loved one for burial.

Sanguinius is the golden child. He's the one everyone points to and says "Him, he's the standard we all should live up to. He is perfection. He is The Great Angel."

He's beautiful, warm, and kind, with a mixture of both intelligence and wisdom that makes him the perfect leader. Everyone looks up to him- even some of his brothers (whether they admit it aloud or not).

He is talented in so many ways, and the image of him with his great wings is so wonderous that no one could ever forget. Even if history was destroyed, Sanguinius would remain in humanity's memory.

He knows this. He carries this with him every day.

Sanguinius holds the impossible weight of even more impossible expectations and somehow still manages to succeed. And that only makes the weight heavier.

He has the love of his father and brothers, but these burdens cannot be shared. He cannot show himself to be weaker or Less Than, simply because he cannot be those things.

No one can see the edges of darkness that occasionally eat at him. No one can see the way he curls into himself when he's alone and struggles to breathe. No one can see how he pulls his own feathers out when overly stressed or anxious.

They cannot see how badly his thirst for blood truly is. And how he fears that if he lets go, his sons will let go, and he cannot have that happen. He cannot disappoint everyone like that.

Because their failure is his failure, and Sanguinius does not fail.

Sanguinius cannot fail.

Anyway, this all came from the idea that Sanguinius has panic attacks and would be the absolute hardest primarch to get to open up and be "himself" because he doesn't even really know who that is anymore.

Your life is getting harder and costlier because of the oligarchs, not trans people"

I think it'd be really funny if Eric was actually a younger brother. So, like, maybe he's a duke, actually, but he still gets the title of Prince. Travels the sea a lot, unlike a more landlocked heir. Hanging out at this summer seaside palace while the rest of the family is elsewhere for some reason.
