Fuck all love letters except whatever Cardan Greenbriar had going on when he wrote “my heart is buried with you in the strange soil of the mortal world, as it was drowned with you in the cold waters of the undersea. it was yours before i could admit it, and yours it shall ever remain”

Many jurdan fans are saying that cardan is the type of man to sit in the sidelines and cheer for Jude while she battles and kills people. I get the idea, but i believe that’s NOT true.
Cardan is the type of man to worry for Jude’s safety and fight ALONGSIDE her. He will literally JUMP into the battlefield with no hesitation to fight and defend his queen. We’ve seen him do it before in TFOTA!! Based on HTKOELTHS and TQON, we have witnessed Cardan make huge sacrifices to ensure Jude's safety. Cardan said it himself that he’s no killer!! those were his morals, but he broke them when Madoc’s guards took Jude away, and he killed a dozen of Madoc’s guards just for HER. In HTKOELTHS, Cardan went ahead to take down an enemy by himself because he feared Jude would sneak out and go alone to fight them. he cares for her so deeply and is willing to confront any danger on her behalf. Cardan knows Jude is strong, ambitious, and clever, but despite that, he still FEARS for her safety!! LIKE HELLO???! CARDAN WILL NOT SIT IN THE SIDELINES AND WATCH HIS WIFE FIGHT ALONE!!! HE WILL FIGHT ALONGSIDE HER!!! STOP OVERLOOKING THAT PART OF CARDAN PLEASEEEEE!!

cardan !!!! i know the first sketches i did were appreciated so i decided to make more. hope you like it 🫶🏻
it’s really hard to draw a character coming from a book, but i think i’m on the right track bc he looks more and more like how i pictured him when reading.
character belongs to Holly Black.

Google, please stop showing me sex ads. I know there are desperate sluts in my area, I have a mirror.

The Cruel Prince Deleted Scene 3
Just want to say that Holly makes a note in this book that says any scene with Cardan was cut because she was trying to make him truly awful, and some of these deleted scenes showed too much of his sympathetic side (imsuffering)
Scenes 1 and 2, all scenes here

Cardan: I have a question for you
Jude: Yes I’d cry if you died
Jude: Yes, I’d still love you if you were a worm
Jude: Yes, I still love you
Jude: No, I don’t want to break up
Cardan: Thank you

As I read Prisoner's Throne, I become more and more impressed with a knowledge about Cardan that I didn't have when reading the three books, even though it was right in front of me the whole time: Cardan is loyal only to Jude. I think my lack of perception occurred because the books were from Jude's point of view, and although our girl is very perceptive in many aspects, her own way of seeing the world wouldn't include concluding a fact like this in its entirety, since Jude, accustomed to betrayal and even disappointment after a while, wouldn't perceive this, nor in relation to Cardan, who used to be the cruel prince.
From Oak's point of view, it becomes clear that Cardan is not only loyal only to Jude but also she is the only one he sees as family until Leander is born, and even that is somewhat dubious, since, given his history, if he had no other choice, Cardan would likely sacrifice him if it meant keeping Jude safe.

the amount of disrespect Nicasia gave Cardan when she chose to not ONLY cheat on Cardan behind his back for weeks but to also have sexual intercourse with Locke in Cardan's bedroom. And how Cardan found them wrapped in his tapestry blanket on HIS FLOOR!! the f*cking AUDACITY!!!!!!! It was so sad how heartbroken Cardan was that he drank for many days, laughed out of misery, and cried. He even was almost on the brink of doing something he never does: crawling to Nicasia to BEG her to love him again.
mermaid girl obviously made a HUGE mistake, because after that action she had lost his love and trust completely. I think that should say something about Cardan, he does not give second chances when someone neglects his heart. BUT HEY he ended up getting the long end of the stick, because he married his long time crush, and is now the high king of elfhameee. Gooooo Cardan!
