#queen being dumb

[homefryboy]

expressed this sentiment before but I like when there’s 2 bad guys and they’re shaped like this

for examples

#just me being dumb #super mario #disney #sonic the hedgehog #adventures of sonic the hedgehog #rocky and friends #rocky and bullwinkle #cyberchase #101 dalmatians #hercules #kaput and zösky #not tagging all these mfs this was enough trouble... #wanted to include spider queen’s henchmen from billy & mandy #but could get literally no good shots #also ig the aunts from james & the giant peach

That is definitely not smart! In fact, that is dumb. (And if you're gonna do it anyway, you can be damn sure I'll be right there with you.)

When you realize that Jude hadn't pardoned herself, not because she hadn't figured out the loophole in the exile (meant specifically for her) but because she had loved Cardan (even if she wouldn't admit it to herself), and was hurt.

Jude had loved him since before she became a prisoner of the Undersea. She loved him when she agreed to marry him. She had hoped her feelings were returned but the exile didn't just mean she couldn't go back, it made her think (and believe) that Cardan hadn't loved her. She wanted to go back because Elfhame was home, she wanted to go back because she missed magic, but how could she go back to where the boy she loves—the King—was probably enjoying himself with his ex or a new lover, mocking her with his friends and laughing over her with her sister, being free at last of any commands, all while knowing (assuming) how much of a fool she was made?

Jude was hurt, not incapable of understanding the faerie wordplay she'd grown up listening to most of her mortal life. The slap she gave Cardan only showed a little of how deep that hurt went.

#i read shit people say and it fills me with #words #to defend my queen #she was *oblivious* #oKAY #but she wasn't dumb #my girl was hurt and couldn't bring herself to face the boy she loved esp. not risk her life knowing what he's capable of #now that he was free to rule as he liked #being released of his vow to her #aaaaaaaaaa #jurdan #jude duarte #cardan greenbriar #queen of nothing #qon #the cruel prince #the wicked king #the folk of the air #tfota #holly black #tfota analysis

Jude in QoN: “Of course it was a trick” That’s what you said.

Cardan:

#Cardan: but that’s what you dooooo baby girl I was just tryna match your energy #also him saying “ofc it was a trick” #that “ofc” speaks volumes to me #like “well yeah it was a trick?? no way you thought you were seriously exiled” #also he’s so fucking dumb for that cause yes #I see his side #BUT DAMN SHE JUST GOT BACK FROM BEING TORTURED BRUH #and you sent her to the one place you always told her to go back to😭😭😭😭with NO WARNING #that’s what Madoc did to her you son of a bitch😭😭😭took everything from her in one day #obvi Madoc was so much worse but they both took everything from her within a moment of time and sent her to a world she did NOTTT wanna go #I love love love Cardan #he overestimates Jude so much and it’s cute AS FUCK but fucks shit over #like yes I’m all for him thinking his wife is a literal god #but he needs a reminder of her mortality every once in awhile #the folk are so fucking oblivious dear god😭😭😭😭 #cardan greenbriar #queen of nothing #jude duarte

I saw other people make their dedede x ripple fankiddos and I wanted to have a crack at it if nothing else other than character design practice... (’ 030)>

I may or may not have taken a bit of inspiration from Death The Kid from SoulEater (love that anime you have no idea)

More Dain Stuff

So I'm still thinking about Dain and more so, who he might end the story with.

Now, I'm 98.9% sure Violet will stick with Xaden. Not saying it couldn't be interesting if, after the whole Venin thing and their already rocky relationship they broke up, but at the same time that's not how romance novels are written. The story might have dragons, but it is primarily a romance book. Xaden has always been the main focus of Violet and they got together in the first book--just like other fantasy/romance books; think Edward/Bella or Alina/Mal. Plus, most of her audience really like them together; not having them as end game would be alienating her readers.

So Dain's not ending up with Violet. To be honest he could end the story single if he survives, but I'd be a little surprised. Many authors even outside the romance genre have a habit of pairing up their characters at the end. It would be nice if the series didn't go that route, especially if it didn't have a time-skipped epilogue, but I'm expecting at least the main side characters to get paired up to some extent since it is a romance book.

That leaves the question of who he could be paired up with. It's hard to say at this point because he hasn't had many interactions with anyone besides Violet. The few times other characters mention him, most don't really like him. They're are Violet's friends or Marked, so they already have a poor opinion of him or hate him for Liam's death.

I'm not saying that Yarros couldn't have those characters change their opinion of Dain in later books (I really hope they do) and then pair him off with one of them. The issue is that I think most of Violet's close group have been given hints already to who they'll end up with. Sawyer is crushing on Jesinia, Imogen on Garrick. Rhiannon is with Tara, who will hopefully get better established as a character in later books. Though brief Sloane and Cam have some flirtation and in a lot of ways it would make a lot of sense to have them end up together, particularity if Cam becomes King. It would fully show the Marked ones are apart of the kingdom again and fully trusted.

Now, Ridoc is a possibility, but only if Dain is established as bi (which isn't impossible). The biggest hurdle there is that Ridoc is the exact opposite of Dain in a lot of ways. He's the goofball, while Dain is portrayed as a strict. Ridoc doesn't like him. It's really doubtful they'd get along. That could change as the series goes on; Ridoc could show a more serious side, while Dain could lighten up. Violet said he used to smile and laugh a lot, be less of a rule follower. Maybe Ridoc could bring that back out. I think it could be pretty cute and honesty it'd be cool if Yarros put an end to a love triangle by pairing up the spare with another guy.

One possibility though that I really find interesting and I could see is Cat.

First of all she also needs paired up as that failed third wheel of a love triangle with Xaden. There is a man in her Gryphon Flier group that likes her, so that might be who she gets put with in the end, but if that does happen I hope he gets a bit more screen time given how important Cat has been at least during Iron Flame.

Second, their powers complement each other. Dain can see memories (pretty much read minds to an extent) while Cat can manipulate emotions as long as they're present. I could easily see these two using teamwork to get stuff done. Cat could get someone upset enough that they lower their shields so Dain can read them, or Dain could read someones memories and give Cat the best ammunition to get them into the state of mind she needs to manipulate their emotions. Physical fights wouldn't change much but in intelligence work they could be really good as a team.

Third, I want a Flier/Rider romance and Cat's the most prominent Gyphon Flier we have as of Iron Flame. She's third in line for the throne which is interesting and could mean she ends up as Queen. Giving her a dragon Rider partner could be a good way of showing that even once the Venin are gone Navarre and Poromeil are still allies. Also would be interesting to see how a relationship like that was seen by the dragons.

Fourth, it'd be a bit funny. Cat is Xaden's ex, while Dain was Violet's first crush and childhood friend. I doubt Xaden would care much, since he never cared about Cat, but I think Violet would have many conflicting feelings about it which would be fun to see her stress over. By the end of Iron Flame she seems to have grown to respect Cat and Cat respects her in return, but I it wasn't that long ago she hated her. Meanwhile, although she was furious at Dain, he was her best friend for fifteen years.

It'd just be funny to see Violet struggling with that sort of roller coaster of emotions and perhaps catching herself thinking similar things Dain said to her about Xaden. I mean I could see her first thought being Cat is getting close to Dain to mess with her, since she can't get to Xaden anymore. Having her catch herself and realize she's making snap judgments could lead to some interesting conversations with both Dain and Cat or even Xaden talking to her more about his past with Cat. Just cool character interactions all around!

Fifth, character development. Dain is seen as Mr. By the Book, and although there probably isn't some rule against Flier/Rider relationships (because they've never worked together before) it could still be seen as wrong. They might be working together but they were enemies for hundreds of years. Dain picking Cat despite it being seen as against the spirit of the Codex continues his growth as getting over his issue of putting rules before people he cares about.

Meanwhile Cat, although tackling her anti-Dragon Rider hate and working with Violet has another flaw the one that was probably the biggest reason her and Xaden broke up. She wanted a crown. Now, I actually don't think this is a terrible thing for her to want given what we know of her and her situation. Poromeil has been essentially left to die by Navarre for hundreds of years. Frankly it makes sense Cat would want political power so she could use it to form an alliance with a Kingdom that might be strong enough to save her home.

Still the story makes it appear to be a flaw--that she wanted a crown over love. So, in that sense picking Dain, someone who isn't a prince or king, and has very little sway with anyone with power (Xaden hates him, and he deserted the army so he doesn't have any allies on that front either--dude is not getting a good job no mater whose in charge) shows she'll pick over over a crown. Even if afterwards she still gets the throne of Poromeil for whatever reason, it'd still prove she picked Dain over power.

So, that's my essay on possible end ships for Dain. I sort of still think he'll die--I'm always prepared for a character I like to die. But if he does live and get paired up I'd say it'd be Cat, with Ridoc as a runner up.

#fourth wing #iron flame #iron flame spoilers #Dain Aetos #Catriona Cordella #I actually forgot Ridoc had a hook up with a guy #until I started writing this post #and i think it would be cute actually #goofball with serious partner who has to keep them inline sometimes is adorable #and it would be cool for Yarros to end a love triangle with the dumbed guy getting together with a man for once #but I don't think it's as likely as Cat #Yarros doesn't seem super good writing lgbt+ couples since both queer couples she has are flings/ with partners who are not fully introduce #so id be surprised if we got two decently fleshed out characters in a queer relationship in the end #I mean I'm just hoping Rhi's girlfriend gets more fleshed out by the end #and from a writing perspective Cat/Dain has more to offer in way of compelling story-lines #mostly because they're both connected to Violet and Xaden in interesting ways then Ridoc is #And I've seen people think Cat will be with Cam (cuz he's the prince) but I think Sloane is a better choice there #Even if Tyrrendor becomes independent it'd still be nice to have Cam/Sloane to show the Marked Ones are fully excepted and safe in Nararre #Also I think it makes more sense since Cat being third in line is brought up alot #so I sort of expect she'll be queen of Poromeil by the end #which make Cam being a prince unneeded #unless the book ends with the two kingdom's uniting #which it could i guess #but sort of doubt #frankly id still like violet/Xaden/Dain as end game--u could even shove Cat in there

I think it’s important to remember in fandom that in your own fandom space you are allowed to be god, but never forget that you are also a little stupid.

#There's a freedom in going 'that's not true because I don't like it and we shall not have it in the foyer of my fine manse' #instead of trying to find justifications for stuff #that isn't to say you can't have reasons of course #but it's also really healthy i think to try and figure out if the reason is just justification you know? #Like I can stretch all kinds of mozzarella #but sometimes that's all I'm doing #I am not going to mention specific times I know I have done this because they are emabrassing to me and I don't have to #I call myself the god queen emporer arbiter of all that is good because it's true here but we all know (jesus christ I hope #when I say things so hyperdramatically.
