@binamajitenshi it’s been in my head ever since that one anecdote where he’s yapping the traveler’s ear off about his collection & standing impatiently at the door of someone he wants to buy an old coin from 😭😭😭
sure he has aunties and big sisters like nefer and lauma looking after him. but nothing can ever compare to mama. he doesn't even remember her anymore but how he yearns so deeply for her sometimes. even flins is at a loss on how to comfort illuga when he's thinking about mama
headcanon that illuga has a habit of staring at children with their mothers in public. even hearing the word "mama" makes his heart ache a little bit 🥺
Flins playing along with their Tabletop Troupe game but he takes his character role too seriously.
Illuga is trying not to die for embarrassment (+how turned on he gets) whenever Flins suddenly reaches over to kiss his knuckles and refer to him as "My knight."
I am still not over the fact that in Varka's story quest, the arrival of Illuga and the Lightkeepers to aid Flins in the battle against Roland's Wild Hunt was described as a sea of starlight in Flins' eyes...
