Tumblr is amazing y'all, all you gotta do is put the right words in the search bar and bam! You've found the fandom for the incredibly niche ya series you read as a kid, forgot about, and then became completely obsessed with years down the track.

EVERYONE PLEASE GO READ THIS SERIES. IT IS SO GOOD AND THE FANDOM IS SO SMALL. With an epilogue book coming towards the end of the year now is the perfect time to start.

Prelims round 1, poll 8:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda
The Library, The Medoran Chronicles by Lynette Noni:
Sentient building! Is literally a place of learning, both through read knowledge and real life experiences; has various doors to different locations and worlds, as well as specific areas inside the library for physical learning. The Library can manipulate space-time within itself, and paintings can easily become doorways to pocket dimensions.
Badalom, The Mysterious Cities of Gold:
Badalom is the second City of Gold of the series. It has an archive of blueprints of different machines made by the ancient Kingdom of Mu/Hiva. It also has a factory that builds flying golden condors.
The Library of the Unwritten, Hell's Library series by AJ Hackwith:
None
The Palanaeum, The Stormlight Archives by Brandon Sanderson:
None
The Stormlight Archive, The Stormlight Archives by Brandon Sanderson:
Super cool archive! The information is stored in carved crystals that vibrate in specific patterns when infused with magic to reveal messages. It was meant to preserve information stored for thousands of years after books in the main archive has turned to dust. (The art is by @lamaery on Tumblr who gave permission for me to upload this as long as they get credit.)
Sazed's Copperminds, Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson:
Copper bracers called copperminds that contain many, many forbidden books. They are accessible only to Sazed, a scholar specialising in religion and also a member of the Skaa rebellion.
‼️MAJOR SPOILERS‼️
At the end of the trilogy, the world is literally about the end, and Sazed becomes a god and uses the knowledge in his copperminds to fix/remake the world.

The lowest-placing entrant in each Round 0 poll will be eliminated, as will the second-lowest-placing entrant with the overall lowest percentage.
Reasons each character is the best are under the cut!
Kanan Jarrus: "Jedi Knight, survived order 66, finds and trains Ezra Bridger, resident dad of the Ghost crew, kind, brave, goes blind to save Ezra, dies to save Hera and the others"
Marcia Overstrand: "Saves the protagonist’s life and sees potential in him and offers him an apprenticeship and a home when he’s just Some Random Kid. Her found family mentor/apprentice relationship with protagonist is one of the most important relationships of the series. Prickly but Cares A Lot underneath. Insists on wearing ridiculous shoes all the time. I love her."
Maxwell: "i just think he's neat. he cares about his students so much and is so willing to drop everything and throw hands with the magical government over them at all times. he's very gentle but a bit mischievous too"
Milligan: "Consider: flung himself off not one but TWO very high places (cliff and building) in service of the kids he protects. Also a great dad and a clever and funky man overall."
Minerva Mcgonagall: "Harry Potter"Only competent teacher there, girlboss, actually helps Harry, stands up to Umbridge, girlboss, turns into a cat"
Mr. McFeely:He delivers mail speedily but is also always willing to stop and talk about things that are important and/or interesting"
Mr. Terupt: "Best teacher, 10/10, Would recommend"
Niyx Raedon: He was a secret mentor figure to the main character who he was soul-bound to and protected through space and time. He died taking a fatal wound instead of the protagonist. The banter and interactions between him and the main character were the best."

Niyx, after the hyroa attack: I've learned some very valuable lessons from this. Alex: I’m guessing they are all horrible distortions on the lessons you actually should’ve taken away. Niyx: Death isn't real and I'm basically God.

Being a fan of something fictional is so weird like the author created the story of the characters but we as fans feel like we know them.
We can hear a song and be like this, is that character, the author may have made the character but we make it our own, seeing them a different way, understanding them, relating to them. But sometimes there are things a fandom can all agree on without even being stated.
The way a character takes their coffee, their favourite season, their favourite movie, and the types of books they read. Even if it isn't stated in the book. movie, tv show, we feel like we know that character, maybe even more than some of our closest friends.

(ignore the blank blog i promise i'm not a bot i just barely use tumblr) anyway i'd love to see something focusing on tmc alex and the different timeline thing that she went through, seeing every single person except her die and the only way she could fix it was to change time itself and no-one else knows what she saw in that timeline but she remembers it like. this is supposed to be a kids book. thinking abt that scene still fucks me up. so yeah that's my prompt, go nuts <3
ask and you shall receive :))

Swordswoman Showdown Round 1 Part 2
Alexandra Jennings (The Medoran Chronicles) vs Lady Oscar Fracois de Jarjayes (Rose of Versailles)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Better here in a "preferred character" sense, not "who would win in a fight")
Propaganda below cut
Alexandra Jennings
Is the true owner of a magic blue sword that she can summon or dismiss at will, and shrink or grow at will. It also bursts into flames upon contact with her in later books. Goes through so much swordfighting training so she can keep pace with the meyarins in a fight (elf like people-long lives, faster, stronger, better senses than humans). Needs her sword skills to fight the genocidal maniac trying to wipe out or enslave humanity; She's so cool! Her friends are so cool! She trains in a sentient library on occasion!
Lady Oscar
She is the commander of the royal guard of the Versailles Palace, also the bodyguard of the Queen Marie Antoniette, she has a thin sword and excels with it to the point that one of the first plot points is how she can defeat any man while also embracing being a woman; I love her and she gets all the ladies at court flustered, very gnc character she is described both as handsome and beautiful and she is so cool and techaes another girl to fight with swords and she cucks the monarchy when discivering the inequality outside the palace :v idk i just think she is iconic
I'll argue that Lady Oscar is *the* pioneer for sword women in shoujo anime, she walked so Utena could run, and inspired a bunch of other anime outside the demographic, like Beserk. TLDR Lady Oscar is one of the best female leads with a sword; She's hot. I feel like the 70's-80's era of anime is often neglected. Swords. I'll be surprised if no one else nominates Rose of Versailles.
If you think Utena is swordy, this woman INSPIRED her creation. She’s badass and better than everyone at the sword; Everyone is in love with her. And I mean EVERYONE. Also, Rococo aesthetic and gorgeous artwork, AND she’s a big BIG deal in early shoujo and still is.
a soldier for france + swordfights often; "Despite being raised as if she were a boy and dressing in males' clothes, Oscar is open about being female. Even as she embraces her femininity, she uses her male position to gain freedoms that she could never have as a lady of the court."
