[Opinion] My Solution to the Legendborn Love Triangle

 


Personally, when it comes to shipping, for me it's secondary. I believe it's important for characters to have their own story arcs, and characters need to also be interesting outside of their relationships whether they're romantic or not. After pondering on the love triangle in Legendborn, I'm strongly in favor of a polyamorous ending. 

The love triangle in Legendborn is one of the most enthralling and interesting love triangles that I've come across in a while, and it stems from the love triangle actually being balanced and all three of its participants being connected to one another in some fashion. 

Nick x Sel
  • Their relationship was already established before Bree entered the picture, so there's already history and a connection established between the two of them.
  • Sel at one point harbored romantic feelings toward Nick when he was 13 years old.
  • They're both bonded eternally together due to the Kingsmage Oath. Sel is bound to protect Nick for the rest of his life or until death.

Nick x Bree
  • Bree has admitted that she loves and desires Nick.
  • Bree is Nick's safe space within the Order he can be himself and vulnerable in front of her. He only desired and wanted her to be his squire. He could endure reclaiming his birthright and facing Camlann if Bree was also there by his side.
  • There's a familiar dance between the two of them of loyalty and trust. (Lancelot & Arthur)

Sel x Bree
  • Bree has expressed that she thinks he's beautiful and that she desires Sel. Sel also desires and yearns for her. Sel called her cariad which can mean: sweetheart, darling, beloved, and love in Welsh.
  • Classic enemies-to-lovers trope. They were antagonistic towards one another at first but there was a shift in their relationship and as they got to know one another they fell in love.
  • Both of their mothers were friends.
  • Bree felt guilty for being attracted to him even though she's Nick's girlfriend.

Nick x Bree x Sel
  • Bree has expressed that she's in love with and has desired both Nick and Sel. She's romantically and physically attracted to both of them. Both of them are also her safe space.
  • Bree, Nick, and Sel are a trio connected and bound together in some shape or fashion. 
  • Bree served as the catalyst to helping change and mend Nick and Sel's strained, toxic/unhealthy relationship. Nick expressed that Bree is a part of his and Sel's story too.
  • All three are united in protecting and sacrificing themselves for one another.
In my opinion, as long as the trio consents a polyamorous resolution is possible. Even if the relationship between Nick and Sel is not romantic they'll still be bound to each other.

[List] My Top 10 Favorite Saved by the Bell Episodes

  Saved by the Bell (1989) Peter Engel Productions//NBC Productions (NBC) I grew up watching reruns of Saved by the Bell, and I decided to list my top 10 favorite episodes from the show. Therefore, there will be no episodes from Good Morning, Miss Bliss. 10. "Drinking and Driving" This particular episode presented an important message in a manner that didn't come across as preachy and it really resonated. The message presented was loud and clear and so were the potential consequences of drinking and driving. 9. "All in the Mall" I enjoyed all of the hijinks that ensued during this episode. Imagine spending the night at the mall to buy some concert tickets.  8. "The Wicked Stepbrother (Part 2)" Eric was a good foil to Zack and gave him the runaround. Also, it was nice that Lisa was able to have her own serious love interest that lasted for more than one episode.  7. "Fourth of July" I enjoyed the overall premise of this episode. For example, t...

[Creative] 3 Ideas for Figure Skating Fictional Novels Starring a Black Female Figure Skater

  It's criminal how there are little to no fictional novels centered around a female figure skater or female figure skaters of African ancestry so I'm here to present three different story ideas for some: 1. Far into the future on the planet Acoren figure skating has taken on a life of its own and is a billion-dollar franchise. At the heart of this tale lies Zyia one of the main stars of her figure skating entertainment company. At a rival company, there's Amon who's a star in his own right. They know that they shouldn't be but due to circumstances, the two find themselves drawn to one another even though a romance between them is strictly forbidden.  2. Go on a journey with Baia and Ixen as they rise up as one of the most electrifying pairs in figure skating.  3. Follow the stories of three different women who are figure skaters as they navigate through life and the competitive world of figure skating.

[Review] Wild Women and the Blues

  This was a book that I wanted to read for quite some time and I recently just finished it. I must say that it was a fun wild ride. The book jumps back and forth between two time periods the 1920s, or more specifically 1925, and the present-day 2015.  The main heroine taking centerstage during the 1925 portion set during the Jazz Age in Chicago is Honoree Dalcour a chorus girl who works at Ms. Hatties a black-and-tan jazz club. This historical fiction novel was a thrill to read. The cast of characters in the novel are full of personality and distinguishable characteristics. Even the twists and turns presented in the novel were interesting, entertaining, and an overall welcomed surprise. I highly recommend this novel.
