Tears to Tiara Yaoi Pairing- Arawn Love Arthur (AraThur) | Pairing Possiblity | In Depth Analysis and Exploration Part 1

Alright, since episode 5 I have been seeing more and more probable yaoi relationships in the anime thus I decided to create more categories to divide the ideas and explanation. For now, I will focus my attention to AraThur (Arawn X Arthur).

Entry 1:

In this entry, we will be basing our analysis to the ever popular "Opposites Attract" that has survived as one of the main reason for non-canon yaoi pairings to survive in the yaoi community. And of course, it is also one of the main basis that each and every yaoi fan can easily spot a potential yaoi pairing.

Let's start by analyzing their characters.

Arawn-> Arawn is a demon king. This alone gave him his air of arrogance, seeing mortals as nothing compared to him. But with this arrogance comes his intelligence, calculating mind and his quiet and calm demeanor. His confidence is also evident and undeniable as well as his strength and magical capabilities. He holds little contempt for others, except to his wives, Arthur and Ogam. And in my opinion, he respects Arthur greatly, this is enough to establish what we call "strong bond".

Arthur-> Arthur is an influencial figure in the Gaelic tribe. Before Riannon married Arawn, Arthur is the acting Elder- leading the hunting, making decisions, etc. He is rather carefree, stubborn and tend to act without thinking. He is laid-back and easily provoked as well as possessing a sensitive character when it comes to his emotions. He easily get along well with others and sometimes even provide entertainment. He seems to hate Arawn at first but grows to respect him as they travel and proceeded to migrate to Avalon.

The analysis is not that deep (since the anime has just started) but I can say they are accurate to a degree. Considering that we are to base our assumptions by this presentation, we can safely assume that they are opposite yet the same. How is this possible? If we are to use symbolism, Arawn is the moon and Arthur is the sun. The moon is quiet and the sun is loud. Yet it is the moon that guides the sun. This little symbolism dictates that they have similarities and differences.

Arthur is carefree and "acts without thinking" while Arawn is quiet and calculating. But instead of the usual, it is Arawn that guides him, unlike other yaoi pairing where the loud one guides the quiet one to do something. In this sense, they are balanced and compliment each other in a way that if their souls are united, and then separated, they take a piece of their soul with them rendering them incomplete forever until they are reunited once again.

AraThur is starting to grow in me. And hopefully, I will be able to write a fanfiction about them as time goes by. Hopefully this short entry has planted some seeds into your heart. Should you want to point out mistakes, feel free to comment and post your own "reasoning." Have a nice day ^_^

Tears to Tiara Yaoi Pairings and Possibilities | Is it possible that Arthur and Lord Arawn can establish a canon relationship, or cultivate love?

I have been engrossed with the anime "Tears to Tiara". It is based off from role playing games. But unlike most rpg's, I can't find any good romance. Because as it was designed for fight, combat, mythology and magic, no one would expect romance in an rpg, let alone a yaoi or shonen-ai pairing. Though it is still too early to make any assumptions, I can say that I totally support ArthurXArawn pairing should it start to popularize whether it's canon or not. Fanfic writers! Here's an interesting fact, throw Lord Gaius in for an interesting love triangle. Trust me, it's fun, don't turn down an idea just because you don't like it.


Here's my line of reasoning. After his resurrection Arawn, was never romantically attached to Riannon. He helped her because he was "tired of tragedies" and he didn't want to help Drwc, at least, that's what I thought. Also, he never expressed anything, and never left a single clue that he 'liked' Riannon' or 'Morgan'- his two wives at the moment. Therefore, it is probable for him to harbor some kind of feelings for Arthur. Remember SasuNaru? Remember the steps for it? First, friendship, then rivalry, then they are bestfriends and then they treat each other like brothers.


Sure it might be a huge blow since Arthur himself pleaded Arawn to give his sister happiness, but I can't see that happening. He had already established some sort of rivalry with Arawn even before the demon king took his place as the tribe's Elder. Arawn himself took interest with Arthur. Though it's definitely not a canon one, because there's no way it would happen due to the nature of the story, but I'm sure the idea would survive in the fandom.


Alright, here's an explanation for Gaius' inclusion. I think that his interest in Arawn can be cultivated into something. Though they only met once, remember that Gaius showed obsession with Arawn regardless if the prophecies are true or not. I could picture the whole things this way- Arawn seducing Arthur, Arthur's refusal, with Gaius' advances, Arawn will use that to his advantages, thus Arthur will be forced to admit his 'feelings'. I don't know, this is pretty much the idea that I have. If I am to write this into a fanfiction, I might write this as an AU, where the war did not took place.


Anyway, it's up to you if you think their relationship is possible or not. Do you? Reply with your comments and explanations! ^_^
