Question for my KOTLC fans out there: what is something you read in the series that you couldn't defend the possible reasoning it was written. For research purposes (and specify what book)

Described as a saucy love letter to organisers, workers and labourers fighting for a better world... 💘

wow, yue, your hair looks just like moonlight.
for @atlasapphicweek day 7: free day
(ID: a redraw of a scene from howl’s moving castle with yue and suki from atla. they’re floating in the sky, suki holding onto yue’s hands. yue’s hair is dark brown and she’s wearing a purple dress with a fur wrap. she has a surprised expression on her face. suki is wearing a green kimono and kyoshi face paint. she’s smiling slightly.
a second redraw of a scene from howl’s moving castle. yue and suki are on a hill dotted with wildflowers. suki, who is lower on the hill, takes a step towards yue. she’s wearing a green kimono and her hair is in a half ponytail. yue looks down hesitantly, hands clasped. her hair is white, and she’s wearing a light blue, fur-trimmed deel.
a third redraw of a scene from howl’s moving castle. yue and suki are lying on a broken piece of hardwood floor, yue leaning over suki. yue’s hair is white and is being pulled by a breeze. she’s wearing a light blue, fur-trimmed deel. suki’s wearing a green kimono and her face paint is smudged. they are smiling at each other. END ID.)
+ bonus old lady yue
(ID: a bluescale drawing of a scene from howl’s moving castle with yue from atla. she’s an old woman, her hair gone white, and she’s sitting on a hillside, wrapped in a shawl. she’s eating fried flatbread, and looking off to the side. END ID.)

fic where you are the heir to the throne and argenti is your personal knight who can be a little... melodramatic at times, but you know he means well when he takes meticulous care in your appearance when you are to speak before your people or about to attend a ball ("everyone must be dazzled by your beauty, your highness!" ...is what he always responds with whenever you ask why he insists on doing it himself when there are maids for that very purpose), as well as his habit of presenting you a bouquet of roses he lovingly named after himself, always managing to replenish your batch just before they wither away ("there is nothing which match my beauty as these argenti roses do, and you deserve only the most loveliest and most beautiful of experiences, your highness!" ...is what he parades with an almost comical sparkle), or even during the times in which he is to escort you, only to dramatize your entrance with an embarrassing flair as he makes your presence known to those present and possibly the neighbouring kingdoms, too ("but everyone must behold your beauty and grace, your highness!" ...is what he preaches when you sputter and fluster at his theatrics, his genuine expression rendering you unable to refute him each and every time).
despite all this, he is a knight nonetheless. you're reminded of this each time an assassin clambers through your window in the dead of night, only to be rendered immobile when argenti takes care of them without a second thought and makes no haste in checking up on you (whenever such incidents occur, it is always you who has to calm him down, holding his hands and reassuring him you are safe all thanks to him), or in the moments where you watch him train, in awe of his battle prowess and find yourself lost in his broad strokes and effortless stance perfected over the years (he likes to flex and show off when catching your stare, though you find it amusing how quickly he flusters when you don't avert your gaze. he's rather cute in this sense).
while some of his antics may be a bit over the top, he is your chivalrous knight nonetheless — and you wouldn't have it any other way.
(though you would never tell him that, for you would never hear the end of it...)

I redrew a scene from the new graphic novel.
There was nothing wrong about this scene, I actually like this panel, I just wanted to draw it. It's not as good tho.

I've been thinking about page 39 in Loadstar for about a week
"'Need I remind you that Keefe's doing the same thing our daughter tried to do?' Edaline asked him.
Grady moved to Edaline's side and wrapped his arms around her waist. 'I'm sorry. I guess I have some trust issues after Brant.'"
Brant was someone Grady trusted and loved like a son. He saw his daughter with him and trusted them both. THEY WERE GOING TO GET MARRIED. Then the daughter dies and Grady is left to care for Brant only to find out years later that it was Brant's fault all along and the trust he and his daughter gave was WRONG.
Now he has another daughter who somehow is already in as much trouble as his first daughter was and Grady sees a boy close to Sophie join the the Neverseen. Keefe seems so like Brant at a glance, but Edaline reminds Grady that Keefe isn't a Brant, he's a Joile.
Keefe is another kid who could be lost in the same way he lost his daughter.

I thought Sophie was my fave Studio Ghibli protag.
But Mahito was just so immediately down for murder that now I'm seriously contemplating if I need to rethink some things.

all I'm saying is that if Fitz treated Sophie the way she treated him while they were together in regards to Keefe, ya'll would have hung him
and I mean the emotional cheating with his best friend. The keeping secrets. The dodging questions. The lying. Secret missions. Keeping him a secret from friends. Letting said best friend's bodyguard insult him in front of the whole room and not coming to his defense. Secretly agreeing with the insults and denying it later. Letting his traitorous brother go without consulting him, even though it really mattered to him. Going and getting with the best friend like five seconds after the break up, after giving him the impression that she wanted to make it work with him.
listen- they're all messy as hell, and they make mistakes, but boy am I tired of acting like she was a saint in that situation.
He was unreasonable. I'm well aware.
But so was she.
she made him her first choice and then proceeded to treat him like her second.
Just bc she felt hurt by him in her POV doesn't mean she was automatically correct. And same goes for him (only difference is we never get his POV fully)
