Van is like the king Tragic Gay
Yeah, right? Mercedes Lackey defined my whole adolescence I think…and Van is so hard to beat
also @kafeismom if you like the Suffering in Last Herald Mage you should read her book Brightly Burning.
It’s standalone but god damn does it bring the pain.

That is a series I need to finish. I died reading the first book and I started the second but got distracted getting divorced. I swear I saw an edition out of all three?
God the first book just DESTROYS doesn’t it??? Ugh. I love it. The second and third books don’t really get any happier…maybe for a few moments here and there but it’s always so tenuous with him lol.
When you meet him in the Mage Winds trilogy (I think this is the one I’m not quite sure) he’s a lot more chill which is nice though.
I’m not sure but it sounds probable? I have them all separately so I haven’t looked into the way they’re being sold now.
I still cry buckets every time I read The Last Herald Mage trilogy because literally the way Vanyel thinks is the way I thought when I was depressed and it’s extremely emotional for me to see and re-experience it as those books make me do.
But at the same time I think it’s a good thing to remain connected to that part of my past and to remain aware of the places that I go so if I do find myself in actual danger of a relapse I can get help.
there’s a universal truth and that truth is that if a property has a sad, gay, dumb character then that character is now my son and I will scream about them A Lot
this started way back in the day with Vanyel so it’s a long standing thing with me and it is not a stretch to go from Vanyel to Lyon to Riku to Soren to Keith and so on.
I guess because there just weren’t and aren’t many lesbians in the genres I interact with I have always fixated on and related to the depressed gay boys.
