when cardan complains about people remembering him as a snake and how he could’ve always sat on a dark throne biting people who annoyed him had me blushing because jude sat next to snake cardan for a whole day. he even slept with her there. he’s admitting jude doesn’t and has never annoyed him. why am i so obsessed with them

I’ve got a stupid theory that Cardan is actually terrifying powerful as an high king.
I mean, Eldred was one of the most important and long lived king of Elfhame, and yet, most of his subjects were unaware of the strict bound between a king and the his reign.
At the coronation, the Folk were amazed by BUTTERFLIES.
In Cardan’s first year of kingdom, he raised an island.
He constantly manipulated plants, the earth, and even changed the castle!
In TPT, he turns the ghost into a tree with half a thought.
And yet, he now hates to be deemed scary, so “he leaves the fighting to his wife”.
I hope this isn’t invalidating for our Queen Jude’s strength, but for once, just once, I’d love to see Cardan going God mode defending/avenging her :)

Jude: never trusting Cardan even though he can’t lie (valid)
Cardan: trusts Jude with his whole heart even though she can lie (unhinged)

Cardan getting over his drinking and drug addiction from the first book into just drinking moderately in the last book is possibly one of the greatest "show and tell" examples in tfota.

It’s so great we have individual reading in my uni so that I can make the whole presentation about a bad-ass girl with horns made with her own actual hair and dark-haired dude with a tail
