Fafnir keeps their name because, well, when you're the Warrior of Light it doesn't matter if you're married to the emperor of Doma - you've got a brand.
Their kids get Qiuleung-Rijin though.
(Is this the first time I've mentioned Fafnir's actual last name on bsky? Lmao)

#WoLQotD for people with OCs who got married and/or adopted kids:
Did any of them take another's surname? What was the reason for it?

Some other fun family information!
Y'shtola and T'kebbe both had good relationships with their parents and decide to keep their last name when taking Mir's, so it's Y'shtola Teiwaz-Rhul and T'kebbe Teiwaz-Morh.
Khloe and Zhloe dropped their last name and took Mir's.

Like I swear to god if I see some weird "taming the big feral brown bull" type stuff under the guise of "it's just a kink!" from white or non-black/brown people I'm blowing y'all up like be thirsty but also use your brain.
Also tapping a similar sign but it's "please don't get weird and racist/colourist about Tyrant too ESPECIALLY with the added context of him being given *bull* visuals (something the game has unfortunately already done multiple times with various black/visibly darker skinned male NPCs)"

i think what gets overlooked is that part of the humor and charm of edits like these is that you're perfectly aware that someone sat down and spent their own time making it. they chose to do something cool or silly or stupid or genius, regardless of the results
that human element elevates the work

I don't know who needs to hear this, but opposing GenAI is not about opposing technology, it's about opposing capitalists.
GenAI is not a technology: it's a massive automation of theft, masquerading as an industry, run by grifters.
Don't hate computers, hate the capitalists behind the curtain.
