My view on Fitz and the Fool trilogies (3 of them) - beware of spoilers and personal opinion!

First Fitz and the Fool trilogy (The farseer one) - Fitz is being Fitz and getting all the traumas he would carry through all his life. The Fool is being the Fool and those two are supporting each other the best they can. Kettricken is crucial to the plot as Kettricken not as the queen. All the other characters are on their places. Regal is a great villain you love to hate. A lot of action and character growth.

Second Fitz and the Fool trilogy (The Tawny man one) - slightly worse. Fitz being stupid and rude and cold. Beloved does not deserve criticism, he's the best, but Lord Golden and Tom Buldgerlock dynamic is the worst, it got boring so quickly. Kettricken is barely here - I missed her so much. Second book barely had any action, I don't remember, what happened here beside Dutiful conflict with princess and Fitz fighting Beloved after speaking with Jek. Pale Woman is barely there as a villain, you don't get to know her or hate her. Well, at least there were Dutiful and Thick, and Elliania stuff, Nettle not so much but I didn't hate it. First and third books are very good, the end is incredible (again, beside Molly stuff - I hated it and Beloved departure).

Third trilogy (The Fitz and the fool one) - the worst. I hate it so much, I don't want to consider it as a canon. Fitz being kinda alright but barely feels like Fitz we know. Beloved - the same, but it's due to tortures. The idea of Bee's, well, birth, existence and parentage is interesting, but what's the point if there's only two scenes in the trilogy where we can actually see Fitz and Beloved as her fathers. Sometimes she almost feels like McGaffin. Fitz was actually acknowledged as the prince (something I was personally looking for from the very beginning) but we also don't see that. All - and I mean all of the beloved secondary characters from previous books (I'm looking at you, Kettricken, Dutiful and Nettle) are barely here and do nothing plot-related. Fitz being bad father to Nettle is something I will never understand. Half of the things that are there lead to literally nothing. Fitz and Beloved are together but they barely feel together, almost always not understanding and fighting one another, especially last book with the whole lady Amber thing. I hated Dwalia, yeah, but I didn't enjoy hating her, I knew she was just a pawn. And we barely see the other White prophets stuff to see them as this "True villain of all 9 books". FitzVigilant is great yeah, I really enjoyed having him as supporting character, but his romantic subplot is awful actually. And all of this ends with...how it ends. I hated it. I could manage it if it would ended differently (literally, any other way, even if Fitz did die under the White keep), but this atrocity...I just don't understand - I've already had this rambling before.

Even the overall plot of all previous trilogies - complicated twist of different character's motivations, inner political conflict is tangling with foreign affairs, every character - whether a king or a servant - is merely a pawn of the Fate. The third trilogy - Bee is kidnapped, Fitz tries to save her, Beloved wants revenge. That's all - just a quest. After this White prophets high council or whatever decided that Bee is not the Son from prophecies - there were literally no stakes at all. It felt like Fitz could went there and be like "Your people kidnapped my daughter, can I have her back?" and poison everything along the way and they would return Bee and then die few days after. And they lived happily ever after as a big royal family.

Point being - it's been 2 weeks since I binge read all 9 books, and I finally accepted that I did not like or enjoy last trilogy. Even a little bit. I finally can ramble about it instead of weeping inside and trying not to think about it. I have more thoughts on this - like how it's not that the last trilogy didn't fit my personal view on books, it actually didn't make sense at all and didn't fit the in-world logic of the Elderlings series - stuff like consistence and characters arcs and so on. But for this one I'll have to find strength to reread all 16 books and find some proof - so it's gonna be about a year or so when I will be able to return to this trauma.

For now it's just a long "BUT I DON'T LIKE IT!" rambling.

Hello!!!!! I've been following you for a while and I love your blog!!!!! My friends and I started a ship safe-zone blog for the fandom to enjoy which made me wonder about what other rare pairs there are in the fandom! Then I remembered you loved Kacxa! I just wanted to know if you had any headcanons for the ship!! I would love to hear them!!!

I can’t believe…..my time has finally come.

It’s a huge deal for Acxa to break from Lotor’s ranks, and after she and Keith come to an agreement that he and the rest of Voltron will help protect her in their fight against Lotor and the rest of the generals, she gets her own room in the castle

Her room is super secluded from everyone else because she acknowledges that she’s the outsider here and she can sense the unease from the rest of the paladins, Allura, and Coran at her presence

Keith is the only one who comes to visit her to ask questions about Lotor and how they should proceed, and while she knows it isn’t a personal call to come visit her, she doesn’t understand why he isn’t as afraid of her as the rest of them

When she asks him that very question, she’s startled when he gives her a genuine smile and says “because I’m an outsider too”

Acxa blushes which makes her cheeks go a darker shade of purple and Keith can’t help but notice

consider him shook

They start spending more and more time together and their discussions start to trail into Acxa’s heritage and how they’re both half Galra

Acxa is almost clinical in her retelling of her childhood and her hardships that she faced as a half-breed, and how she had been able to find focus and solace under Lotor’s reign

Keith is fascinated and just wants to learn more and more so he keeps coming back to her and they spend hours talking, first starting with her sitting on the edge of her bed and Keith leaning against the wall by the door until they both unconsciously become comfortable enough with one another that they start sitting next to each other on the bed

The first time Acxa laughs at some dumb thing Keith says in an off-topic rant, his throat kind of closes up and all he can do is stare and the way her eyes crinkle and how she lifts a hand to cover her mouth and wow she’s kind of unfairly beautiful

He immediately makes up some excuse about why he has to leave—“left the food goo machine on in the kitchen, it’ll be a whole thing, so I gotta just–yeah ok bye”—and then stands outside her door with his hand on his chest where his heart’s beating a little fast and has a moment of internal crisis

Acxa’s left confused and blinking at where the door just swished shut

Acxa has zero (0) concept of understanding human interactions, mannerisms, and general social etiquette so Keith has to keep an eye on her

Lance: [accidentally spills nunvil on Acxa when they bump shoulders in the hall]

Acxa: [spins around] YOU DARE CHALLENGE ME?

Keith: NO NO, THERE’S NO CHALLENGING HERE

Lance thought he was going to die that day

Despite instances like the one with Lance, Keith convinces Acxa to come out of her room more often to visit with the other paladins to start to make them feel comfortable around her too

Keith has a mini-heart attack when Acxa tilts her head and says “You understand me. Isn’t that enough?” and he just mumbles out something unintelligible and waves at the corridor towards the kitchen in an attempt to make her start walking so she won’t see his face turn red

but for real, once she starts integrating more with the paladins, Acxa makes some very interesting connections

She and Hunk bond immediately

prob bc Hunk is the epitome of trustworthy and kind and she feels at ease around him and he makes her laugh with his constant food references and dramatic expressions and she always replies with “I do not understand what you’re saying but you are quite entertaining!”

Pidge also slowly eases into talking with Acxa and asking prying questions with that little glint in her eye that always pops up when she’s devastatingly curious and wants to learn more about something and Acxa finds her small stature intriguing

Okay but speaking of Keith blushing

The first time Keith blushes at something, Acxa smiles and comments on how odd it is that some humans have such transparent skin and she reaches forward to touch Keith’s cheek where it’s now bright pink and he sucks in a really sharp breath and freezes up

Acxa notices and says “Oh. Am I crossing a ‘boundary’?” and Keith can’t help but laugh lightly at the air quotes he can hear in her words and he croaks out “Kind of.”

and Acxa nods once and starts to pull her hand away and Keith doesn’t know what possesses him but he grabs her wrist and Acxa stiffens because she’s used to violence following something like that but Keith’s grip is firm but gentle and she looks into his eyes just as he says “It’s okay. I don’t mind.”

Neither of them really know what to do from there with the tension hanging between them so Keith lets her go and Acxa folds her hands in her lap and they both just stare at the floor until Keith bids her a goodnight

spoiler alert: Keith doesn’t sleep at all that night

spoiler alert #2: neither does Acxa

Keith and Acxa train together in the training room whenever there’s downtime

Keith is thrilled because he’s fighting another humanoid who pushes him to his limits and not the same robot over and over again

Acxa finds Keith’s intensity and his level of skill fascinating and their sparring sessions go from minutes into hours

Neither of them want to give in even when they’re both about to collapse from exhaustion, and Keith takes the high road and calls a draw so they can both slide down the wall on the far side of the training room and catch their breath

Both of them are satisfyingly sore and worn out and happy that they’ve found a decent opponent to spar with but neither of them say it

Their first kiss is after one of their countless sparring sessions

Acxa got the upper hand in the last half of their session and caught Keith off-guard, pushing him closer and closer to the side of the room until he was backed into a corner with no way out and she knocks his sword out of his hands

Keith trips backwards and falls on the ground with a surprised huff and feels the tip of Acxa’s training spear just under his chin, inches from his throat and their eyes hold for several moments

With a short laugh, Acxa withdraws and holds out her hand to pull Keith to his feet, which he grabs as he stands up, but Acxa pulled a little too hard and Keith was already feeling a little weak at the knees so he ends up stumbling a little closer to her than they’ve ever gotten before

They both just stand there, hands still clasped, lips parted in surprise, a little stunned at the lack of space between them, and that’s when Keith just leans forward and kisses her

Acxa panics and pushes away, covering her mouth with her hand as she says “What are you doing?” and Keith is kind of wrecked and doesn’t know how to reply so he just ducks his head and apologizes and moves past her to grab his bayard and leave the training room

Cue both of them in their rooms mulling it over; Keith, beating himself up and cursing himself for breaking the small bridge of trust he’d established with her. Acxa, with her fingers pressed to her mouth, brow furrowed as she tries to understand

Keith is sitting with his hands in his hair on the edge of his bed when his door swishes open and Acxa steps into his room

She walks over to him and pulls him to his feet and she’s blushing but looks so vulnerable when she says really softly, “I don’t understand. Can you help me understand?” and Keith can’t really breathe but he cups her cheek and pulls her in to kiss her again

When they finally pull away, Acxa breathes out a little “Oh,” because she gets it now, and Keith can’t help but grin at that

someone kill me I’m fragile and weeping

#leilariver #kacxa #keicxa #vld keith #vld acxa #THIS GOT SOOOO LONG IM SO SORRY LSKDJFALSDKJFA #THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME FREE REIGN TO UNLEASH MY RAREPAIR NONSENSE ON YOU #also AAA i'm glad u like my blog!! cries loudly #replies #shut up madison

Intro: It's been 2 years that Kaira got married. Now Kartik has no problem with his family. They stays in Goenka House. Naira is now 4 months pregnant and her crazy mood swings and cravings are driving Kartik crazy. But no matter what Kartik's love for Naira increase day by day as he actually finds her more cute with her little baby bump. Chapter 1 """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""'""As the sunlight peeps into the room, running the sleep of the sleeping beauty, she snuggles more into prince arms, trying to block the sun rays from her eyes. Her frog prince happily pulls her tightly into his arms. They stay like that for about 5 minutes, that when Kartik realizes he has important meeting at 9 am. He tries to pull himself out of Naira's tight hold, but no way will Naira let go. Kartik: Naira i've a very important meeting in 1 and half hour, I need to get ready jaan. Naira: No please 5 minutes more na mendak, I want to stay in your arms forever. Kartik: Ok only 5 minutes more and no more. You have become so demanding with your mood swings (whisper this line to himself, thinking naira didn't heard, but she did) Naira mouth forms into a "O" shape. And her pregnancy hormons mood kick in action. Naira's mood swings starts running in. Naira: What did you say? I am demanding? How dare you, how can you say that to me, am that much a burden for you?(starts to cry) Kartik: No jaan, I didn't mean like that! (in his mind, scolding himself) way to go Kartik, couldn't you keep your mouth shut? Kartik pulls Naira into his arms and turn to shhh her. He places kisses to both her eyes and wipes her tears. Kartik: Naira you can never be a burden for me. You're the most amazing thing that has ever happend to me. I love you jaan and stop crying. Naira smiles though her tears.But quickly pretends to be still angry with Kartik. So she tries to get up, but kartik won't let her, he hugs her tightly and cups her face. Kartik: Don't cry jaan, I can't stands your tears. I love you so much and i love my little baby soon to come into this world. Kartik bends down on his knees and places a kiss on naira's tummy. Kartik: baby tell your mamma that papa loves her so much and can't stand her tears. Tell mumma that i love you and her a lot. The baby kicks. Kartik places a few kisses on naira's tummy and then looks into Naira's eyes and hold his ears and says sorry. Naira melts and hugs Kartik tightly. Then they share a kiss and get ready and goes down to hall. Kaira eats breakfast with the whole family and Kartik, Manish and Akhilesh leaves together for office. But before leaving Kartik warns Naira not to mess around and not to work in kitchen, To take food and medicines on time as she had to rest and take care of her and their baby. Manish and Akhilesh already left and Kartik tells them that he is coming afterwards. Naksh and Keerti was married 6 months ago after Aditya been exposed. They had also a love marrige though. Dadi was in temple as she held a puja for Kaira and their baby. Swarna was in Kitchen and Sulekha was in her room. And Luv Kush in their school and Mansi in her collage. Kartik is about to leave but Naira calls him and he turns around. Kartik: Jaan do you need anything? Naira: Kartik do you really have to leave? I am going to be so bored. Please can i go with you (pouts) Handsome please... Please kartik.. Kartik: No. this is not going to happen. I'll be back in 2 hour as soon as my meeting finishes i will come home that we can spend time together, i will do the rest of the work at home if needed. He kisses lightly Naira as she still has her lips into a pout. Naira: Okay Kartik. I love you, bye. And pecks his cheek. Kartik: Bye and I love you more.. Naira: Nope. I love you mooorreeee.....1 Kartik: Okay got it, You love me more but now let me go else i'll be late for office Naira: Okay go and come asap. Bye. Then kartik gives her a flying kiss and leaves """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" Writer: Mimi_Kaira ...Leap of 6 months... Now Naira is 9 month pregnant with her heavy baby bump. Everyone had went to wedding, and Kartik was sitting on the bed next to Naira, as she was watching a movie. Kartik didn't pay any attention to what Naira was watching as he was working on a very important deal.Suddenly Kartik hears Naira crying and weeping silently. Kartik turns to Naira and panics, thinking she maybe in her labor pain. Kartik puts his laptop aside and turns to Naira. His heart beats very fast, hoping nothing serious happened to his jaan. Kartik without even asking Naira why she is crying, quickly picks her up and starts carrying her towards the door. Naira: Kartik what are u doing? (while tears are flowing from her eyes) Kartik: Hold on Naira. I'm taking you to the hospital, hold on jaan. Naira (screams and shocked):Whatt?? Why are you taking me to the hospital?? I am FINE!! Naira quickly jumps out of his arms leaving Kartik dumbfounded! Naira stands right in front of Kartik. Kartik: Naira then why are you crying? Naira: didn't you see how the hero give up his life for his love, thinking that he can make it easier for her to live. Kartik: Unbelievable !! Naira come here baby, do you even know how scared i got?? I thought that you are in labor pain.+ Naira: I'm sorry Kartik, i was watching XYZ ( think any of movie) and it was so touching that i couldn't control my tears. I am very sorry for scaring you like that. NOW is shocked, no that would be an understatement, she is beyond shocked. He is left speechless by the cute antics of his lovely wife. But then he smiles thinking of her khushi and her mood swings. Kartik: enough of these silly emotional movies now. You better watch out any romantic movie. It will also help to refresh your mind. Naira: okiee Naira then plays a romantic movie in tv and starts watching it. Some times later a intense scene comes on the film and Naira gets an idea. She comes closer to Kartik. Kartik: Naira what are you doing?? Naira leans more closer to Kartik. Naira: You know na baby what am i doing??/ She caresses his face with her fingers. Kartik: Jaan pls it's not the time Naira (in a seducive voice): It's the time. Karrik then loses his control and places his rough lips to her soft ones. He sucks her lips and Naira equally response to it. He tastes every corner of her mouth, They keep kissing passionately. After some minutes Kartik breaks the kiss. Kartik: I'm sorry naira. I know naira you want me to love you as i want. But i can't take risk with you or our baby. Doctor advised us na not to make love until your delivery. But after your delivery i won't stop you to make love with me. Naira: Promise? Kartik: Pakka wala promise. Then they sleep with cuddling each other. Naira: Kartik wake up. Please. Kartik wake up with shock. Kartik: What happened jaan? Is it hurting? If it is then tell me where? Naira: Sshhh Kartik. It isn't paining. Actually i was unable to sleep. Kartik: Why? Naira: I wanna eat ice cream. Kartik: What? At this hour? No shop is open right now. I'll get you ice creams ai morning. Okay??? Naira (screams): Noooo, Not okay . I want ice creams now only. Kartik; Okay baba. I will get you ice creams now. Happy?? Naira: Yess. More than any one. Kartik: Okay bye. Jaata hun. i mean jaake aata hun. Naira (smiles): Bye Kartik then leaves and come back after about one hour. Kartik: Naira see i.... Kartik comes and sees her sleeping. Kartik: Uff...kitne mushkil se to mila ice creams. And here madam is sleeping. Kartik then goes to the kitchen and places the ice creams at fridge and comes back and sleep besides her. Kartik wakes up and sees Naira drying hair after having bath. Naira: You woke up? I'm sorry for midnight thing. A/ctually idk what happened to me that i was craving for ice creams at midnight. Kartik: It's absolutely okay jaan. Don;t be sorry. Kartik then left for washroom. After having shower, Kartik: Naira, chalo. Let's eat the ice cream together. Wait i'll get it. Then they eats ice cream together Suddenly Naira feels pain and something wet in her down. Naira: Aahhh... Kartikk.. I thinkk my water has been broke. Aaah.... Kartik then picks up her and rushes to the hospital. All of the family members were present there. Kartik was pacing here and there. He was worrying like hell by listening her loud scraems. He never wondered that delivering a baby gives much thta pain. He was crying hearing her screams. Suddenly he hears a baby crying and Naira's screams goes off. Seeing a nurse with a baby in her hand coming out from the OT, he rushes to there. Nurse: Congratulations, Mr. Goenka. It's a girl. His happiness knows no bounds. He felt as he is the most happiest and luckiest person of the world that time. Nurse hands over the baby to him. He was almost crying in happiness. Kartik: But Naira? How is she? She is alright na? Can i see her??? Nurse: Yes. She is alright. But the weakness is still in her. She has been moved to a private ward. you can go now and meet her.
