Found Family Love - Tumblr Posts
something about the found family trope make my heart so full. I’ve realized it’s the common ground in every one of my favorite stories.
There’s something about the bond that’s formed through a love that isn’t given because of attraction, that isn’t unconditional in the sense that you have to love your family members because they happen to share your dna, but the love that’s given when random groups of individuals find each other and choose to love one another. They choose who they would die for, and who they want to protect, and rely on, and cry to, and laugh with, and to me, that bond is much stronger than anything else, because it means that there is truly nothing holding those people together. they choose to be a found family for no ulterior motive other than they both want and enjoy the other persons company.
Idk I’m soft and I think it’s adorable when rag tag gangs of people thrown together by coincidence end up loving each other intensely long after they would need to.

“a few years down the line, after the weddings and before the funerals, one evening piper and wyn return to the safe harbor after work, and xarus you turn the open sign on the door to close a little early today. one by one the crew of the delrose arrive. there is a table in the corner with enough chairs for everyone, and large wood rose carving overhead, that no one else is allowed to sit at. and in the empty bar and dance hall, you gather together, to eat, and just, to talk.”
