Karma is when Madoc even thought of chaining Jude the moment he got the chance, only to be chained himself as soon as he lost.

It's crazy to think that Jude was Madoc's favorite because she was the most like him.

and she stopped being his favorite because she was the most like him.

They were too similar, bound to clash.

I just remembered that Balekin was the one who told Madoc where Jude and Taryn's mom was after she ran away from Elfhame. So Balekin's the reason Madoc took Jude, Vivi and Taryn back to Elfhame with him which indirectly caused Jude to kill Balekin all those years later. He would've still been alive if he weren't such a snitch lmao what a loser.

Madoc

Madoc has never met a lover that didn't need murdering.

Jude in TCP was something else. Imagine poisoning yourself on the daily, still doing physically challenging missions while balancing the mental load of being bullied and harboring a secret life, sleep depriving yourself and STILL attending daily family dinners and classes.

[cromulentreader]

Do y'all also think about how Cardan went from telling Jude she was destined to and deserving of death to being like Jude dies over my dead body? Or are you normal?

#and how Madoc said Cardan would always see Jude as inferior to him (for being fae implied) #that said more about how Madoc saw Eva that anything else in the books to me #maybe she is no longer mortal as queen or maybe she is #Cardan will still risk his life to save hers #it might have started in TWK with Cardan letting Roiben's court be decimated to save Jude's life #the realization that he cared for her short life more than any long-living creature around #normal is the wrong answer #jude duarte #cardan greenbriar #tfota #the cruel prince #matter not #the wicked king #the queen of nothing #the prisoner's throne #jurdan

Ghost: are Jude and Madoc having a staring contest?

Cardan: Madoc is, but I’m pretty sure Jude is just plotting revenge for something and forgot to blink.

tfota characters appreciating Jude after tcp

Remember when Jude so badly wanted to be seen for all her effort and just be acknowledged and appreciated? She wanted Madoc to see her as a capable knight. She wanted the court royals to see her worth and make her part of the royal guard. And once she became the spy she never thought to be only to deal with more shit than she ever could have imagined, all she wished for was someone who would see it all and congratulate her.

I have lied and I have betrayed and I have triumphed. If only there was someone to congratulate me.

and of course, your girl here finally decided to compile those few times it actually happened because damn, if I were Jude, their acknowledgement and appreciation would have made me break down and ugly cry-

The Roach appreciating Jude in twk

and it hits especially because, as readers, we know not only what she dealt with in the Undersea, but also what happened right before that and how hard it physically was for Jude to sneak into Cardan’s room after he got her released and how nothing could stop her from getting to him (not even a weak body, like plz)

Cardan acknowledging Jude in qon

Again, this hits not only because it's Cardan who's saying the words but because he actually sees her; he saw her fall, he saw her bleeding, he definitely saw more because he's the one who cleaned her wounds. He saw it all, and he knew, even if it terrified him.

Madoc surrendering to Jude

(and I can not emphasize this enough, when he could've attacked her and we know well enough that he's not so honorable as all that; not above stabbing in the back), which was basically his way of acknowledging her wisdom (or decisions) as a ruler and deciding to bend his knee to the crown.

in short, a friendly reminder <3
