A LOVE FOR THE PAGES

tedros pendragon x reader

a/n: here’s the story! i still haven’t decided if this is gonna be a one-shot or a story with multiple chapters, so i guess you’ll just have to wait and see! the dress and hair that y/n wears when described is at the bottom, but it is totally optional, if you don’t like it then please just imagine something else! also please don’t judge too harshly lol, i know my writing isn’t quite top notch :/. also tedros might be ooc. anyways i hope you enjoy reading!!

her eyes shone with glee as the took in the story inside of her book, transporting her to another land. the bustling and chatter surrounding her did not capture the girl’s attention, not when the room went silent, nor when the obnoxious sound of swords clashing filled the air. what did succeed in rousing the girl from her focus was a single rose landing on her book, obstructing the exciting scene that was happening in the pages from her view. the soft tendrils of her hair framed her round face as her head rose, an adorably confused expression on her face. a pool of adoration and amazement swam in the deep sea of his eyes. his eyes. there was a twinkle in his striking blue eyes as he stared into her wide ones. a breath she was not aware of holding escaped her lips in a heavy exhale.

a loud noise startled her out of her daze as she looked to her side to find a beautiful girl with topaz eyes staring at her while a sickly sweet smile molded her lips. her eyes were undeniably gorgeous, like the rest of her, but in a way that was so different than the boy’s in front of her. while his held a warmth and care in it that she didn’t quite understand, her’s were cold and distant, a strange hostility in them.

“he intended that for me.” she flicked her eyes towards the boy in question, smile softening.

“do I get a say in this?” said boy asked rhetorically, a charming smirk lifting his lips as he rose a brow in tandem. his eyes shifted to the girl clutching her book with a iron grip, softening slightly at the sight of her before nodding his head in her direction, “the rose went where I intended it to go.”

he sent one more smile to the confused girl, before walking away and sitting with a group of people she assumed to be his friends. the girl behind her was frozen, not believing the events that had just happened. once she had managed to shake herself out of her shocked daze, she sent a judgmental look towards the wide-eyed girl before huffing and turning towards the two headed dog that had just entered the room.

✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹

“good morning, darlings! Rise and shine!” the excited voice of professor dovey sang into the pa, tearing the sleepy girls from their dreams. a tired groan fell from one of the girl’s lips as she tightened her blanket around her, desperately trying to hold on to her sleep.

“c’mon y/n, wake up” the voice of her roommate came from above, along with a hand that softly rests on her shoulder. she ripped her fluffy blanket from her head, staring up at her roommate with sleepy eyes and a pout resting on her lips. her roommate, savannah, had beautiully smooth chestnut skin that perfectly complemented her crimson red hair that was pulled back in a wavy ponytail pinned with a big white bow. how long had she been awake? savannah’s perfectly glossed lips stretched into a soft smile, helping the other girl wake up. “c’mon.”

y/n smiled at the redhead and slowly got out of bed, yawning as she walked over to her own vanity. she brushed through her knotted hair, pulling some of the front strands into two full plaits and tying them together at the back of her head with a silk gold, black, and silver bandana. she colored her lips with a tinted balm and applied a coat of mascara. she changed into an airy baby pink dress with a tight-fitting corset and big poofy shoulders paired with elbow-length silk white gloves.

“you ready?” savannah asked from her spot on her bed, checking her bag to make sure she had all of the supplies she’ll need.

“yup.” y/n turned around to grab her own bag, before meeting up with the redhead at the door, “what class do you have first?”

“i have beautification, what about you?” the two girls started walking to the area with some of the classrooms together.

“i have animal communication, so i gotta split here. i’ll see you at lunch?” y/n asked with a smile, pausing in her steps near the door that leads to the gardens and lake.

“yeah, definitely. bye.” savannah replied, shooting the other girl a smile before walking towards her class.

y/n took in a deep breath as she opened the door, quickly making her way towards the lake where her first class will be held.

✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹

her delicate fingers combed through the fur of the young bear currently resting on her lap. it was her first assignment for animal communication, taming a wild and irritable animal. all the sweet bear cub, that y/n had named bella, needed was some love and care. she took her hand from bella’s head to flip the page in her book, laughing softly when bella let out a soft whine when the petting ceased. y/n cooed as she quickly placed her hand back on the brown bear’s head, making sure to give her a little extra attention before turning back to her book, unaware of the eyes that stared at from the other side of the field.

some of the everboys were practicing with their swords, but one of them was distracted. tedros stared at the sweet girl, enraptured by her. she was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. and with what he’s witnessed, he was sure that she was also the kindest. a nick on his upper arm pulled him out of his daze, sharply turning his head to see his friend, adam, staring at him with concern.

“hey, man, are you okay?” his fluffy brown hair shook slightly as he heaved, resting a hand on his friend’s shoulder.

“yeah, i’m fine. why?” tedros snuck a quick glace at the girl across the field before turning his full attention towards the brunette in front of him.

“you sure? cause you seemed kind of out of it for a second there.” he furrowed his brows in concern.

tedros glanced to the side again, adam following his gaze to find a girl leaning on a tree reading with a bear resting on her. understanding filled his eyes as he smirked, realizing what had captured his friend’s attention.

“c’mon,” adam nudged his blonde friend, shaking him from his daze once again. he led them to a patch of grass where they sat down, the girl that had captured the prince of camelot’s attention still in view. “so…” tedros turned to face the brunette, curious as to what would come from his mouth next, “you like her?” adam nodded towards the girl in question.

tedros’ cheeks blushed a bright pink when he saw where his friend had nodded, realizing he had been caught. a sigh fell from his lips as he turned towards adam, “yeah.”

“so, have you talked to her?” the brunette asked tedros.

another heavy sigh, “no.”

“well are you gonna talk to her? or just keep staring at her like a creep?” adam raised an inquisitive brow towards his friend.

tedros let out an defeated scoff, sinking into himself slightly, “i don’t know.”

a sympathetic look graced the brunette’s face as he stared at the saddened prince, “well, why don’t you go talk to her now? there’s no time like the present…right?”

“yeah,” tedros nodded to himself, face becoming determined, “yeah! there’s no time like right now! i’ll just walk right over there and….” his face became worried.

“…talk to her?” adam tried to prompt his friend.

the blonde’s shoulders slumped in disappointment, not understanding why his stomach filled with butterflies whenever he even thought of her, or why his palms got sweaty at the sight of her. she just made him feel so uneasy. but the strange part was, he didn’t mind it. he actually liked it. there had to be something seriously wrong with him.

“dude, what has gotten into you?” he asked, staring at his dejected friend, “why are you being so weird about this? i mean, you haven’t even talked to her? why are you so worked up about this one girl?”

“i don’t know, man. there’s just something different about her. i don’t know what. believe me, i wish i did.” tedros stared at the green grass below him, nervously picking at it with his veiny hands, destroying the perfectness of the field that was next to the school for good enlightenment and enchantment.

“then talk to her!” adam stressed, looking at his friend with an expression mixed with concern and frustration. upon seeing hesitance on the prince’s face, he sighed. “c’mon man, i’ve never seen you this wound up over someone, especially a girl you’ve never even talked to! just go talk to her! she looks like she’s nice, so why not?” when he didn’t get a response, he sighed once more. he placed a hand on the blonde’s shoulder as he stood up, “i’m gonna go practice some more, think about what i said, alright?” when he didn’t get a response again, he gave his friend’s shoulder a few taps before walking back over to the other everboys who were practicing their sword fighting a a few meters over.

tedros thought over what his friend said, knowing that he’s right. adam had always looked out for him and gave him advice when he needed it, or just gave him a shoulder to lean on when he needed that. he had stuck by tedros’s side no matter what happened or what he went through, adam was always there. he knew that he could trust his friend’s advice, and even if he didn’t, he could still agree that the brunette’s words were wise.

tedros took in a deep breath, mentally preparing himself for what he was about to do as he stood. a scoff left his full lips, he couldn’t believe himself. it was as if he were about to go to war with the prep he was doing. he shook his head at himself. this is ridiculous! she’s just a normal girl! nothing special about her. this’ll be easy! he was sure of it.

✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹ ✧ ⊹

he was wrong! so so so incredibly wrong! this is not easy! he had gotten across the field to a point where he was standing just a foot in front of her when he froze, staring at her with wide eyes when she looked up. her eyes. her eyes were so unbelievably beautiful. he had never seen anything like it. he had looked at her before sure, a highlight being when he gave her his rose, that was the closest he had been. but it was so different now. because now the sun was shinning on her in a way that perfectly highlighted her ethereal features, but also did not blind either of them. he would hate it if that happened, he feels a mixture of absolute unease and nerves with an undeniable feeling of peace and serenity. she confused him more than he could have ever imaged before meeting her.

he realized that he had been staring in silence with the weirdest expression on his face for a while when she awkwardly smiled at him, “hi?”

he was sure he could have died right then when he heard her voice. it was barely a whisper, her voice could have been mistaken for the wind. but he was so glad he caught it. her voice could have solved all of his issues. he was sure that if she had helped talk him down from his nightmares, he would have never had another one.

upon seeing her freaked out expression, he realized that, once again, he had not said anything, “uh-hi.”

tedros cursed himself in his mind. hi?! that’s the first thing he said to the goddess in front of him?! hiiiii?!?! he couldn’t believe himself. he wished the ground would just swallow him whole, save him front the situation he had put himself in.

“did you want anything?” her hypnotic voice broke him out his mental degrading. he slightly calmed when he saw her freaked out expression fade into one of ease, though there was a hint of nerves hiding behind her mask.

“no!- i-i-i mean yes! of course!” the blonde prince nodded, pursing his lips as he once again yelled at himself in his mind. if he were to stay around the girl in front of him, he was sure that his deprecating thoughts would get much worse.

the two stared at each other in silence. while one of them gaped, filled with confusion, the other admired the confused girl.

when she realized he wasn’t going to say anything, she gently smiled before prompting, “what did you want?”

tedros panicked, something he seemed to be doing much more recently. idiot! of course she would ask what he wanted! why did he have to say he wanted something? would it have been weird if he said he didn’t want anything? oh god, think fast! she’s staring at you like you’ve gone insane! just say something! “jumper cables!” oh god not that! now she’ll really think you’re crazy. tedros shook his head, “uh- your name?” he tried.

she smiled, still a tad freaked out, “oh, it’s y/n, what’s yours?”

y/n. such a beautiful name, it suited her perfectly. wait! she asked for your name. she asked for your name! chill out, dude, she asked for your name. yeah, yeah, be cool. be cool. a lazy scoff fell from his lips as he looked to the side, a bored expression gracing her face. “ it’s tedros.” looking back at her, he saw her face fall slightly. oh no! too cool! too cool! “um- it’s tedros! i’m tedros, tedros pendragon!” he smiled at her, hoping that she doesn’t think he’s uninterested. this is going horribly. seriously, he must be sick!

“well, it’s a pleasure to meet you, tedros!” her excitement shown through her breathy voice, the volume raising the smallest amount.

his heart melted. she was so sweet, even when he had been a complete nut-job for the majority of their interactions. and, god, the enthusiasm in her voice when she spoke to him just then, he had never heard anything like it. her emotions were displayed so freely from her face and voice. he envied her.

“it’s a pleasure to meet your acquaintance, ms. y/n.” tedros bowed, tipping his head up towards her with a smile when he heard her giggle. he made a promise right at that moment that he would do everything in his power to make sure she giggled and smiled all day long.

“do-” y/n paused, hesitation leaking into her voice, “would you want to sit by me?” she smiled nervously, anticipating his response.

“i would love to.” his smile was calm as he had besides her, “what are you reading?”

her face lit up, excited to tell him all of the details, “well the main character, mel, short for melinda, is a fairy! but she doesn’t know it at the beginning of the book, she thinks she’s just a normal human girl. and it all starts when riven, the love interest, comes to her town and-”

tedros listens with an extreme focus, eager to soak in every word she speaks. that was how they spent the rest of the day, talking back and forth about their most special interests as bella glares at the blonde prince for stealing y/n’s attention away from her, before she eventually fell asleep and the two parted ways.

the sge movie was terrible. let me tell you exactly why i think it sucked

i think they messed up sophie and agatha's friendship. they were never lovey-dovey or "besties for life!" kind of friends. sophie was using agatha as her "good deed" to get into the school for good and evil, and agatha knew this. from this toxic relationship emerged a real friendship, but not really until they got to the school for good and evil. also, one of sophie's main character traits is that she's a shallow bitch who uses everyone to get what she wants (and we love her for that!), but they completely removed that trait when they made her "besties!!" with agatha.

wishing tree?? hello?? let sophie be obsessed with fairytales!! i know they had to do it for the exposition and for the people who've never read the books but they're not doing her character justice.

agatha's personality?? where did it go?? where did my frumpy, grumpy, sarcastic, witchy teenage girl go?? they barely gave her any of her original personality - she wasn't even slightly grumpy until she went to the school for good and evil.

tedros and agatha's relationship. it was so DRAB. the enemies to lovers banter was barely there!

i love sofia wylie... and i have literally no problem with agatha being a POC, i have to admit that sofia wylie is conventionally attractive. agatha is not supposed to be conventionally attractive. she is the opposite of the beauty standard, which is one of the contrasting traits between her and sophie. if they chose an actress who definitely does not fit the beauty standard and had agatha's whole self-realization plotline, it would have fit much better with the story. again this has nothing to do with sofia wylie being POC, so please don't take that the wrong way.

what happened to the swan crests??

why was the school master shown. like the biggest mystery of the first book is the school master. they ruined all the fun by introducing him at the very beginning.

where's sader? where's princess uma? WHERE IS CASTOR AND POLLUX????

the beast?? where's the beast at?

why was sophie punished for talking to an ever... when they were literally in the same dining room... they ruined her whole transition into evilness by having Lesso cut off her hair instead of the beast.

THE RANKINGS. THEY GOT RID OF THE RANKINGS. WE NEVER GOT TO SEE SOPHIE'S "F IS FOR..." OUTFITS.

also Lesso's character was fucked up. they took evelyn sader's plotline and meshed it with hers and it makes me so mad because it takes away from her future relationship with Dovey and it strips her of her character!

WHY WAS DOVEY LIKE THAT.

um where was the circus of talents?? like was that not the biggest thing that happened in the whole book... soman i'm so disappointed in you.

i liked how they did the trial by tale in the movie but i wish they kept the original plotline.

they did my boy yuba so dirty.

also the forest groups was so annoying to watch. i wanted to see sophie and agatha mingle with tedros in the forest.

wtf is this blood magic stuff. did we all collectively forget that entire thing happened in book 5 (or was it book 4? i don't even remember)

they could've made this a 10-episode TV show so easily. they didn't have to get lawrence fishburne or kerry washington or michele yeoh. they could've given smaller actors/actresses a big platform. if each episode was an hour long, we would've gotten much more than we got in this shitty movie. each season could be 1 book. catch my drift? netflix, you know i'm onto something.

i wanted a groom room scene.

the ever's ball. ugh. they did agatha so dirty.

HER CIRCUS OF TALENTS GOWN WAS REMOVED BECAUSE THERE WAS NO CIRCUS OF TALENTS

they did hester so dirty. like where was her witchiness? her superiority complex? her intense and undying love for her coven even though she insults and belittles them constantly?

ANADIL!! where were her rats?? also i think i saw someone else point this out that they could've cast an albino person because she is albino in the books. there's already so little albino representation. and that doesn't mean she can't be black, she could be a black albino person. i did love the girl who played her though.

i wanted more coven scenes.

tedros was not annoying like he was in the book and i was mad about it lmao

agatha and tedros felt so forced!!

that's all i can think of right now. im so mad about the movie that im going to go write an entire screenplay for a 10-episode tv series.

— 🌷 tedros with a s/o who can sing

he would LOVE ur singing voice my gods

when he first heard it you guys were taking a walk, holding hands

and it was super quiet and you just absentmindedly started humming and then humming turned to singing <3

he was like :0

"you can sing!"

constantly telling you how much he loves your voice

WILL ask you to sing for him <3

i hc that he has a pretty smooth voice so whenever he catches you singing a song he knows, he'll probably listen for a bit to figure out the melody and then harmonize with you

i love him so much oml

okay another hc like if you ask he'll sing u to sleep whenever you need<3

and also like he likes it when you sing its really comforting for him

so you learn the lullabies that his mother used to sing for him when he was a kid <3

#liz stop using <3 after every sentence challenge #[🧸] dear diary #tedros pendragon #sge tedros #tedros pendragon x reader #tedros of camelot #tedros x reader #sge #sge x reader #school for good and evil #school for good and evil x reader

Would you consider drawing some sort of Hester x Anadil sketch? Your depictions of those two are the only ones I like/imagine them as lol

hey there!

thank you so much for your inquiry!

your comments always brighten my day and I really wanted to make this one special! I did go a bit experimental with the textures haha!

I know alot of people prefer my typical "animated Disney" style, so I was a bit hesitant doing something different with these characters! However, I quite liked the way it turned out, hopefully you guys do as well!

As for Hester and Anadil, I was inspired by a photoshoot and loved the pose, it suits them perfectly!

thank you again so much for your support! I hope everything is going well!

can you write tedros x fem ever reader please

Tedros x fem!ever!reader headcannons

A/N i am working on doing a full fic for tedros x reader as I have had multiple requests for this (including 1 specific plot point) but I thought while everyone was waiting I’d get this out to give you a little look into the kinds of things I’d include!! There are references to the book as I am trying to erase the movie from my mind. (For more details please do ask, I’d love to rant)

Tedros is a sap

he would always do whatever he could to make you feel loved.

but he doesn’t realise that’s what he’s doing

he’s just naturally affectionate

he’s also insecure

he’s always scared you’re going to see past the crown and hate what’s there

the truth?

that could never happen

whoever doesn’t love the real tedros has bad taste

he’s sweet, kind, caring, and sure insecure but who can blame him with how his childhood was?

(I really hope y’all have read the books otherwise you have no clue what I’m talking about)

he’s also passionate

when he loves you, you know it

flirtatious, especially before you guys get official

secretly terrified of rejection

he loves so hard, so don’t you dare break his heart, he may never fully recover

trust issues, so when you break through that he’s completely and utterly yours

no-one can dissuade him from you

you mean so much to him if he truly trusts you

talks to you

opens up about his parents and Lancelot

always listens to you too

wants to help you however he can

once this boy falls in love with you he’s not leaving until you tell him to

would 100% be respectful if you told him you didn’t want to be with him

would be completely heartbroken but respectful

but until you tell him that he would never leave you alone

wants you to always know how much he loves you and cares for you

i don’t know what else to say apart from tedros would go to the ends of the world if it meant you were happy

i just love this man ok? I could go on for years about how loving he is

this man needs a lot of love too

like I said he’s insecure so needs to be reminded that you love him as much as he loves you

cuddles!!!

this man loves cuddles

always the little spoon

wants to be held and protected by you

feels safest when he’s touching you in some way

physical affection is his number 1 love language

he’s not always the best at comfort, at least not how he’d like to be

so physically reassuring you to remind you he’s there and listening when you need is how he comforts

he wants that too

not necessarily looking for advice straight away

just comfort

so hug him, hold his hand, let him lie in your lap, play with his hair, just touch him

finds your presence comforting

more than happy to just sit in a room together doing your own thing without talking

like you could be reading a book while he practises his sword fighting stances

just wants to be with you all the time

sneaks into your room before you get married

eventually gets to a point where he can’t sleep without you

loves waking up with you holding him

first time he does, this man buffers

he thinks you’re the most pretty person he has ever seen

just stares at you until you wake up

then when you do, he peppers you with kisses and tells you how beautiful he thinks you are

i could happily go on

if you want more headcannons do ask

nsfw ones?

orrr

never reader?

OR OR

never tedros??

or anything really

not that I’m excited or anything

Thinking about how the extent of Tedros and Agatha’s relationship problems is them rehashing the same insecurities for 6 books and could have easily been resolved if Sophie had LET THEM BREATHE FOR TWO CONSECUTIVE MINUTES

#i love them #but come ON #the version of sge without Sophie is like 3 chapters long #the fall I love in the first book and for some GODFORSAKEN REASON they can’t be happy until book 6????#ask me about the alternate ending to sge 1 I wrote in 11 grade #tedros of camelot #tedros/agatha #sge agatha #agatha of gavaldon #sge Sophie #tagatha #the school for good and evil #sge #sge tedros #sophie of gavaldon

So. I just watched the school for good and evil movie. As someone who has been a fan of the book series for nearly ten years, here are my thoughts on it:

Pros:

Agatha and Sophie have great chemistry, as do Agatha and Tedros. Sophie and Tedros... Don't! Which is also good!

Lady lesso and Dovey are amazing. 10/10 casting

I actually liked most of the changes to the plot. The second book was never my favorite so I'm sort of glad they skipped over it and completely omitted the Sophie/Tedros. In the movie it's clear Sophie was never really into him besides the idea of him as a prince.

In the same vein, I liked how they changed Rafal. I never liked him very much as a character and making him a whole ass creepy adult instead of a blonde twilight-esque immortal teen was for the better.

The soundtrack and costuming was so campy. I love it. Got Jumpscared by the Eurovision song at the end though

Hort was perfect in every way. He's such a loser I want to study him under a microscope

Cons:

Really could have used more world building. I get it, it's a movie and there's only so much things you can fit into two and a half hours (in fact I'm a bit impressed they fit as much as they did in) but a lot of the charm of the books is from the world outside of the school and the magic system! It's what separates it from stuff like ever after high or Disney's descendants.

The actress they cast for Agatha, while perfect for the role in every other way, was simply not ugly. She could not sell me on her otherness. Visually she fit right in with all the other princesses at the good school.

While I loved a lot about Lesso and Dovey, I don't like that their friendship was removed. They're my Baby's First Lesbian Ship and I love their dynamic in the books, which the movie didn't even try to match.

If I'm remembering the books correctly, it seems like they gave Agatha's mom's backstory to Lesso instead. Bit of an odd choice, but it gives me hope for the retconning of the sisters thing. Speaking of...

The sisters thing

Yes, they're sisters in the books. Disappointing, I know. I've been reading posts of people experiencing what I like to call "sister reveal syndrome" all day.

I've seen a lot of people complain about the movie being queerbaiting. I totally understand where they're coming from. The movie didn't delve into the whole romance vs friendship plotline that the books had, which makes the true love's kiss at the end really seem like it was meant to be romantic.

In the books, one of the biggest themes is that platonic or familial love is just as important, if not more so, than romantic love. My personal feelings about it aside, the kiss at the end of the book made sense and was clearly not intended as romantic. The movie just didn't hit the same mark so it's completely understandable that people would be disappointed in Agatha and Sophie's relationship.

But like I mentioned earlier, it really does seem like the movies are planning on retconning the sisters plotline. Due to the casting Agatha doesn't look a lot like Sophie's dad or her mom (unless when Sophie's mom turned herself prettier for stephen she also... No, they wouldn't.) And they implied Lesso fills the role Agatha's mom is meant to. And no mention was made of Galvadon being related to the fairy tale world in any way.

Overall, I did enjoy the movie a lot. It isn't like the books, but I don't think that's a bad thing.
