Hello again, thank you so much for taking the time to respond to my ask! It has definitely sated my curiosity, and I do love reading your thoughts on the topic.
When it comes to the mediaโs reaction to such a relationship, I do tend to lean towards the thought that they would villainize Leona. No idea to what extent, but it would feel on brand for them given the biases of Leonaโs home country against him.
If we go with the โgetting engaged to avoid an arranged marriageโ route, Ruggie worked for Leona both in the palace and NRC for years and lived in extreme poverty his whole life. Leona is literally dating his employee, and I do think there would be a fair few that would take shots at Leona for such a thing.
I do have one more question for you relating to my previous ask that has been lingering on my mind for a few days now; how do you think the coup wouldโve changed had Leona and Ruggie been romantically involved beforehand or at the very least perceived to be so?
What got me thinking about this was the fake dating idea that was previously mentioned. If they did decide to go through with it and it was revealed to the public, I do think it would change some things. To what extent, I am unsure.
For starters, a big part of Mizaโs plan was getting married to โLeonaโ and then getting rid of him when it was most convenient. But how believable would that have been had Leona publicly got into a relationship shortly before their supposed engagement, especially if Ruggie and him went so far as to get engaged? If it was shortly before the coup, I could see her going through with the plans and just put out a statement afterwards about โLeonaโ wanting to secure the stability of the country now that his family is dead or whatever, but potentially it could lead her to going after Ruggie during the coup which I fear would not end well.
The biggest thing that has been going in our trioโs favor this entire fic that has allowed them to get away with living in the Savannah for this long is Ruggieโs anonymity, and to take that away may result in there being no Ruggie and therefore the eradication of the Kingscholar line.
If they got into a public relationship long before Miza had even stepped foot in the palace, I feel like that would hinder Mizaโs plans because the main reason she was invited there was to talk about an engagement with Leona. Furthermore, the believability of an arranged marriage after Leona has been in a public relationship for fuck knows how long is a lot less believable. Then again, he did just have his entire family die and that does cause people to act in ways they normally wouldnโt.
Anyways, I would love any thoughts you may have on any of the above! Thank you again for your response to my previous ask!
apologies that it took me a bit to reply to this! I've been sick, unfortunately, and while it was just a cold it pretty much turned my brain off for a few days.
(again, under the cut, because it got long)

Hello!
Firstly, I want to let you know that swallow the sunrise is my favorite ongoing fic and one of my top twst fics that Iโve read in this fandom. The plot itself is something I have been searching for for ages and I feel so lucky to have stumbled upon a fic centered around such a thing with writing good enough to prop it up. The way you write the plot, the world, and the characters has me hooked in a way a fic hasnโt done for a while now. Thank you for posting your work and allowing us the privilege to enjoy the story you have made!
Now, onto the main reason I have made this ask:
One thing that has been on my mind since Ruggie/Leona finally happened has to be how Farena wouldโve reacted to their relationship were he still alive to witness it. In order to sate my curiosity, I have evidently decided to go straight to the source.
I suppose a part of why my mind keeps looping to this question is largely because I do think how Farena wouldโve reacted does depend on the circumstance around them getting together. If this was an offshoot of the main plot where Farena somehow lived and is currently imprisoned by the Usurper, I do think he would be a lot more open to it because of everything Ruggie has done for his brother and son. If not for that, however, I do think there would be significant pushback.
If the coup never happened and they still somehow got together against all odds, how wouldโve Farena reacted? Better yet, do you have any thoughts on how the public would react to such a match?
I will admit that I find it funny to think about if Ruggie and Leona did what they joked about near the beginning of the story to fake date to get Farena off Leonaโs back about an arranged marriage. Maybe the coup never happened or it was pushed back by a few months, but thinking about the aftermath of such a harebrained scheme has me giggling. Farena would get a lot of gray hairs, that is for sure.
Any thoughts you have about my pondering would be greatly appreciated! I always love hearing what fellow fans have to say about my favorite characters :)
first, thank you so much for your kind words! it's always so reassuring to hear that people are enjoying it. :)
this got a little long so I'm putting it under a cut!
and then you also got me thinking about what a sts au where Leona actually says yes to the initial fake relationship proposal would look like
a couple things would happen immediately, at least if it was a fake engagement (which, like I said above, I think would need to happen if they actually wanted Falena off Leona's back):
Ruggie would get his own room in the palace, separate from the serving quarters, but probably separate from Leona too, otherwise it might be kind of a scandal that they were sleeping in the same room while just engaged
Ruggie would immediately be relieved of duties like being Leona's attendant
both of the above would mean Ruggie would absolutely lose his mind within the first week, both because he needs things to do and does not want to be treated like nobility. he'd try to back out, but Leona wouldn't let him (kind of a "you got me into this, so if you back out now I'm gonna kill you," kinda thing.)
meanwhile, speaking of threats to Ruggie's life, him getting directly in the way of Miza probably means she's actually out for his blood in this au. there are probably multiple assassination attempts and all the angst/hurt Ruggie/worried Leona potential that comes with that.
would Ruggie have the same relationship with Cheka? would Miza still try to take power? would Falena live? would still have to mull those over more. I don't know if I'd ever be able to write this (sts takes up so much brain space and usually I'd need more than just a couple stray scenes/notes to feel ready to write a fic) but maybe one day!
because that's far from a guarantee though, people should feel free to borrow these ideas for their own. more inspiration in the creative space and all that.

given the current climate this pride especially i feel i must mention that i love my trans friends, i stand with trans people in the fight against transphobic legislation and those who would enforce it, and this blog is not a good place for you to be if you do not vibe with that
things in fic I'm used to people kind of faking their way through writing about:
the city of los angeles
the city of new york
sex
how drinking alcohol works
how getting high works
how a child of any age speaks
how nuclear physics work
how [my job] works
how debilitating being shot in the shoulder is
how hypothermia works
things I have never before seen someone fake their way through writing about, until today:
what french toast is
read through the notes on this one trust me
Here's some of the notes, starting with the things multiple people brought up:
SHRIMP COCKTAIL:
banahbanah: #flashback to that one fic where Peter Parker frets about drinking shrimp cocktail because of the alcohol
generaldeliciousness: adding: what a prawn/shrimp cocktail is
#why is your character turning it down because they're under 21 #do you think prawn cocktail is a cocktail #this lives in my brain rent-free constantly #the rest of the fic was so normal #and good enough that i'll still re-read it #but bro
And then many, MANY, people wondering if this was actually authour mistake, since Peter really would do this!
POMEGRANATES:
zhajhassa: #haha where's that post that was like someone describing someone eating a pomegranate but they ate it like an apple
thornhands: #once someone wrote persephone biting into a whole Pomegranate #had to stop and stare at a wall for a minute
sungsingsanguine: I once saw someone very confidently write about a character eating slices of pomegranate.
FRUIT TREES:
zagreuses-toast: #given a very endearing glimpse into a writers blindspots by seeing them describe someone sitting under a ''pineapple tree''
salatrash: I remember something about picking watermelons... OF A FUCKING TREE
baander: #cranberry trees
DOUGH/BATTER:
maycelium: #I'm a chef so I'm really used to people not accurately describing how to cook food #But I was surprisingly flabbergasted when someone was writing making a cake and was kneading it. Which uh #Not necessary for cake. It was interesting for sure but just bizarre
livebloggingmydescentintomadness: #the one that drove me nuts was when a character set aside a batch of PASTA DOUGH 'to rise' #pasta doesn't have yeast!! #it does need to REST but it will never RISE #you do not want an airy crumb on your noodles
lovesodeepandwideandwell: #THE ONE WHERE THEY MADE COOKIES BY LADLING BATTER INTO A TRAY
Some other topics:
Love character relationships that can only be described as "whatever the fuck these two have going on"
Heyโฆ. Heyโฆ Characterโs covered in blood, okay? You remember characters covered in blood?? You used to love characters covered in blood
so tragic when you're an enjoyer of characters who are toxic destructive messes and then the majority of the fics are like "what if they communicated healthily and were nice to each other :)"
like if i wanted to read about wholesome well-adjusted relationships i would NOT be looking for stories about these freaks in particular i promise you!!!

How do we feel about the fact that Ruggie and Leona's baby pictures have been revealed
Ruggie's baby hyena hair!!! ๐ญ Leona's tiny little pigtails!!!!!! how am I supposed to get anything done today now that I have this information. the hair...
Did you see the new art by Yana that came with Savonacraw Volume 3? Baby Leona and Baby Ruggie! And I've seen some people commenting that Ruggie's hair is much darker? Could it be that Ruggie's hair is like a hyena's fur, which gets lighter as they get older? Has Ruggie been getting blonder and blonder? Could Ruggie's hair get even lighter as he gets older?
I hadn't, so you're a lifesaver, anon.
they're both just babies, huh? ๐ฅบ
is this the first confirmation hyena beastfolk are born with dark hair? I know it was a headcanon a lot of us had, myself included, based on the fact that actual spotted hyenas are born dark furred. and my boy's still wearing second hand clothes that are way too big on him. at this point his uncomfortable reaction to clothes like the fairy gala outfit might be partially just because he's not used to clothes actually fitting him along with not liking how expensive and fancy they are.
I know we already got a look at young Leona in the manga chapters when they first released, but I love that he's got a more classic Leona face on here. already starting to be done with the world & how it sees him.
