Headcanons for His Dark Materials

1 - Very few people have pets in Lyra’s universe because they don’t have the same need for companionship since their daemons are always there for them. This isn’t to say that daemons act as pets, because that just isn’t true, but rather having someone there to talk to who literally IS a part of you and understands literally everything that you’ve been through, even the darkest moments, negates the need for the type of companionship that pets bring

2 - All animals in Lyra’s universe are treated with the utmost respect. There are more animal welfare laws, and while they are strictly enforced, they usually don’t need to be brought up because people have a higher level of respect for animals than those in other universes.

I think this would be a thing because people would have more empathy for animals since their daemons, though different, cause humans to associate animals with their companions.

Granted, there is still the meat industry and it does exist and is okay, as well as fur trapping, hunting, etc. However, within those industries / lines of work, I feel like the animal welfare would be of a higher standard than that of our own universe.

3 - THIS MAN

IS GOOD AND PURE AND NOTHING BAD EVER HAPPENED TO HIM IN HIS LIFE AND HE WOULD MAKE THE BEST HUSBAND.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk

My collection of books by Philip Pullman. <3 These books are the very best. I love reading about Lyra and Will :D And this world is just all kinds of amazing. Sigh. The best. <3 I cannot wait for his upcoming book, The Book of Dust :D It will be perfection, I’m sure. Waiting might kill me, though. But so excited. Also! Letter! I’m dying a little bit because Philip replied to my fanletter :) And it is the best thing in the world. So much love.
