hey so this is actually gorgeous and beautiful and i wanna put it in a locket
🗡️🍷✨
I need someone to rant with (about The Cruel Prince)
She's a 10 but she ingests poison daily to become immune so obviously she's an 11
you know what keeps me up at night is that like. Jude heard Cardan, a fae who cannot lie, say "i think about you often and i can't stop" and that bitch went "nah you know what? i don't believe you" and proceeded to require physical proof of his claim, in the form of kissing that mf straight on the mouth.
she is either denser than we ever thought when it comes to Cardan's attraction for her, or she was already in much deeper for him than she even knew.
We all have headcanoned Cardan as this big ball of fluff and yet sometimes, I remember that one scene in Queen of Nothing when Randaline dared imply that Jude should stepped down from the monarchy because she was mortal and Cardan just grabbed him, dragged him to another room, said something to him and dude came out shaking and apologising. I SOMETIMES FORGET HE IS A MEAN CAT LMFAO.
It is so embarrassingly blasphemous that there’s characters who think Jude loved Locke
Like when Cardan’s mom said Jude loved Locke at the trial, I went feral for her cause AS IFFFFFFFFF
The second half
🤴🏻 + 🤜🏻👑 🤛🏻= 🐍
You guys ever think about how Cardan was so so "cruel" to Jude?
And why? All his life, baby only got "affection", admiration and attention only when he acts cruel, as seen the memory globe thingie.
And he‐ he knows that's how to get "LOVE"?? So like, the whole while he was cruel, really he just wanted attention? He just expected Jude to be happy about it like Asha was?? Baby Cardan really just chose the only "love language" he knee to try and impress the girl of his literal dreams?
And she still didn't seem to like him? What the hell?
Or are you actually sane?
Holly really just picked 2 attempts at murder and declared them flirting and I am not over it to this day.
Ngl tho, "hot" will also be my 1st thought if someone like Jude, fkn JUDE DUARTE (ehum), would hold a knife to my throat, but yea-
Though I would prefer not to drown........bye-
dude ;0;
when cardan is telling jude about his whole plan (once she comes back ‘as taryn’) about exiling her and it being all sneaky and he’s like “look i’m like you ! i did a sneaky thing just like you did ! you must be so proud of me !!” and she’s like What Is Wrong With You ?!
broke my silly little heart, it did ;0;
This part
Unique(obviously) . Excruciating(imagine him in constant 'pain' cuz he knows she hates him and he knows she isnt his and probably wont be) Alarming(imagine him alarmed everytime he sees her because hes just hit with how beautiful she is and how much unlike him and loved) Distressing(imagine him panicking because yup, he loves her, but she never will)
Sometimes I just think of when Cardan is telling Jude about the whole thing where her exile was just a scheme or whatever, I think of how Cardan just wanted Jude to be proud of him, proud because he fooled everyone, just like she does. I think about it and break just a little bit more, because that's how he would have made Baelkin proud, by doing what his brother would have done, so he just assumed to make Jude proud he had to do what she does. Our baby High King was just so desperate for love and validation, indeed.
Fuck Romeo and Juliet I want what these bitches have

I have PMed the artist and am waiting on a reply
Friendly Reminder
"And the next thing we know the High King is on our doorstep looking ready to tear down the whole apartment complex to find you!!"
(Pardon me for inaccuracies)
So like, what. I wanna know exactly what happened. Honestly when I read I squealed and then the first coherent thought was "Wait. What did he wear?" And then "What did he do? Did he go alone? Did anyone from the Court of Shadows go along? What EXACTLY did Cardan say?"
Like, imagine Vivi just sipping coffee and Oak out playing with the kids while Taryn just does whatever idec, and the suddenly they hear a knock (idt Cardan knows the doorbells that well) and then Vivi opens the door and BOOM. Cardan. In his full glory. Like, did he try to look the best he could to go down to his wife's family home and win her back? Imagine his finest and most ridiculous clothing, lined with gold embroidery and what not, with his makeup impeccable. Or was he in too much of a hurry? To just, get her back. Because where fuck is she? And why did MADOC, of all people, come to get her? Was she so mad that she switched sides? Or did he realize the truth that Madoc didn't know it was Jude? Or did Cardan not dare to believe that to be true because it'd break his heart if it wasn't?
At this point I'm just rambling. I'm sorry.
But then, like, also imagine Taryn comes up behind Vivi asking who it is and just for a slight second Cardan gets super hopeful thinking it's Jude but then there he sees Taryn and he's just like, bitch, this is enough. And THAT MOMENT, my friends, was in which he lost it and then proceeded to give Vivi the impression that he was gonna tear down the apparent complex looking for his High Queen.
I'm sorry. I really will stop.
What if he wore some sort of mortal clothes. Like, imagine Cardan in sweats and a hoodie. Or, like, a 3 piece suit. But for some reason I just can't accept that he'd ever wear a Tshirt with Jeans. Idk why.
Ok bye-
My dreams struggled to rival the horror of my actual life.
The Cruel Prince, TFOTA, Holly Black
Instead of being afraid, I could become something to fear
The folk of the air, Holly Black
I stand in front of my window and imagine myself a fearless knight, imagine myself a witch who hid her heart in her finger and then chopped her finger off

cardan being obsessed and fascinated by the curve of jude's ear is so personal to me especially knowing the fact that jude is very insecure about her human features including her human ears but cardan loves them
a sucker for all maps in books all those little mountains,river,castles,forests and stuff
Also books with playlists>>>>>
girls don't want boyfriends , girls want all the folk of air books rewritten from cardan's pov.
Cardan Greenbriar really said "Come home and shout at me. Come home and fight with me. Come home and break my heart, if you must"
My poor heart can't take this
So..What if Jude Duarte actually have a knife kink and so she uses knife on Cardan so often.....
This is your sign to go on picrew and make you and you fav fictional character
Did I only do me, Cardan and Jude
Maybe
But still

every now and then I remember that Jude literally girlbossed her way into becoming Queen of Elfhame yet somehow didn't realize that Cardan was simping so hard he almost died
Do you think Cardan stole Jude's ring because he had already planned to marry her or he stole the ring cause he liked it and then thought "I will marry Jude... oh look, I can give her her ring"?
I finished The Queen of Nothing and now Idk what to do with myself. I need more jurdan
you do realize that jude and cardan saw each other since they were kids right???????????? like, the general's mortal daughter, it was surely a constant topic among the high fae and besides, they probably studied together when they were younger than in tcp. THAT MAKES ME WANT TO SCREAM
how am I gonna fall in love when no one will ever tell me they're forever undone by me and that i'm their sweet villain and darling god and their sickness and their sweet nemesis and the object of an obsession that disgusts them enough to think about the way i walk or the callouses of my fingers or the curls of my hair or an absent bite of my lip and-
do you think daily about the fact that Cardan thought Jude was ignoring his letters or are you normal?
