when I was reading kotlc everblaze a year ago the fire alarm in my house went off. There was no fire just the alarm but it was odd. And then when I reading spirit animals blood ties and rollan got the sunset death, I got bitten really bad by bugs and had an allergic reaction. The day I started reading winter in the lunar chronicles my pinky finger nail and some of the flesh around it came off. What the heck

Conor: What do you think Rollan and Meilin will do for a distraction? Abeke: They’ll probably, like, make a noise or throw a rock. That’s what I would do. *Building explodes and several car alarms go off* Abeke: ... or they could do that.

YOUVE READ SPIRIT ANIMALS??? BRO I FUCKING LOVE SPIRIT ANIMALS THATS MY SHIT AGHHH.
Conor's my favourite too I love him sm he is literally so sweet. Tell me everything you think about it and if you made a spirit animal for yourself
SOBBING SOMEBODY ELSE KNOWS ABOUT SPIRIT ANIMALS ITS A MIRACLE I own the two main series in hard cover they are all lined up on my little bookshelf they have such shiny spines and I treasure them beyond compare
overall I think the whole series is amazing and there’s genuinely not many like,,, corrections or whatever that I have for it. while I adore the first series I actually like fall of the beasts better ESPECIALLY BECAUSE OF HOW OVER POWERED CONOR GETS I LIVE FOR THAT SHIT SO BAD
Conor has always been my favorite of the four main characters mostly because his character arc in terms of personality is a copy of my life. he had so many important moments for himself and for the team and overall I think it’s so interesting how he becomes the leader-figure of the group, ie the others pack bonded so hard to him. in reality I see Meilin as the inner-group leader but people outside the four of them see Conor as the leader. puts a lot of pressure on him as well as the pressure from being the wielder of the Staff of Cycles and the fact that he’s basically an oracle/prophet by the time the second series ends AND how he was the only one infected by the Wyrm. he’s one of my special blorbos I love him so much
also he’s genuinely one of the most powerful warriors to ever walk that planet. no I don’t take constructive criticism on that
BONUS THOUGHT I don’t care if nobody else on the planet thinks this but the four heroes are in a polyamorous relationship no doubts about it. despite Rollan and Meilin being the only ones in an actual canon relationship, they all act the same to each other like. once the characters who are dating are acting the same way with the two other friends you just. Know. they all love each other so much
in terms of making my own spirit animal, I did play the spirit animals game while it was still alive (?) and I usually picked a very large black panther/leopard/whatever I think?? or a tiger sometimes but I don’t think I ever claimed an “official” spirit animal. I always just wanted to be Conor, so I guess a wolf would be my official spirit animal
to be fair though I was biased toward having no spirit animal because I was obsessed with the redcloaks more than the greencloaks. I adored Worthy to death and I created multiple redcloak OCs despite never making a greencloak one. they are just so cool omfg
this makes me wanna do stuff with spirit animals on this blog ahajdjfhdhdhdh. maybe I’ll draw them or something that would be nice. I did write some stuff for it but it was all on paper so I’d have to dig it up. also I don’t think any of the stories were very serious like most of my fanfics end up being lmao

My Conbeke headcanons cause why not
Everyone can see it but them + she fell first, he fell harder trope
Abeke sleeps in Conor's t-shirts, even before they started dating
Conor acts all annoyed saying that soon, he won't have what to wear, but he actually thinks she looks really cute in those
After the Wyrm, the only times Conor wouldn't have nightmares was when Abeke slept next to him
Abeke doesn't like having her hair untied, but when she does, it's always because Conor once told her that she looked good with her hair down
Conor is the one to cook in their relationship. Abeke is terrible at it
Everyone thinks that Meilin or Rollan is the biggest Conbeke shipper, but in reallity it's Worthy
Every time Conor feels bad or insecure or smt else about what he did because of Wyrm Abeke kisses his forhead or arm, where Wyrm started the infection
Before the two started dating, on girl's nights with Meilin, Maya, Lishay and sometimes Kalani or Tasha, the rest of the girls tried to make Abeke to admit she liked Conor, and she always refused to do so, even though it was so obvious
they spent a lot of time in library, Abeke teaching Conor how to read, cause she's a bookworn herself

Some more Redcloak thoughts. I bet that at first they were kind of closed off about their former animals, and didn't like to really talk about them. But after some time, they warmed up to each other and kind of just accepted their fate, they would commonly talk to each other about their former animals and their new powers. I can also imagine them wearing things to represent their animal, like Redcloaks who summoned furry animals to wear fur dyed to match their animal's pattern, or people who were bonded to scaly animals to wear clothing sewed to look like scales.

Headcanon #12
I remebered today that there were other characters in the SA series (oopsie poopsies 🤷🏾‍♀️)
-MY FRIEND SHANE. Let's discuss him shall we? (At another time but take a small headcanon abt him for now while I write that essay)
-basically, Shane's an adventurous kid. So when he first starts travelling as a Conqueror, he's thinking "what the flip wow." And he tries all these foods (steals rlly but shh) and new things and he's just really really happy.
(small shippy bit for @bayofwolves)
-So this is after Abeke's gone to the Greencloaks side, but whenever Shane sees something new or amazing, he thinks "I should show this to Abeke." or "Abeke would've loved this."
-and just because I'm feeling extra today 😉, when they meet up again in The Place of Desolation after defeating the Wyrm (Shane lives for the purposes of this headcanon) he's collected all sorts of items to show her and talk to her about; anything he couldn't show her, he describes to her and they're just sitting in their own quiet little bubble 😭
ok enjoy <3

Spirit Animals and Character Development
Has anyone ever realized how Rollan and Abeke, and Meilin and Conor all have opposite character developments?
(I've never seen this talked about, so I'll just have to talk about it.)
Rollan: His arc is all about learning to put more faith in people. He learns to trust more. After bonding with Tarik, he learns that it's okay to have people that you can trust, care about, and lean on. He learns that some people are trustworthy and that trust can be earned.
Abeke: Her arc centers around learning to trust less. At the beginning of the series, she blindly puts her trust in Shane and Zerif. Later, she learns her trust was misplaced. At the end of the first series, we see her fight Shane and yell at him about how she trusted him and he essentially lied to her the whole time. She learns that although people can seem kind, they may not actually be.
Meilin: Her arc is about how to step down and not be so controlling all the time. Give other people a chance to lead, to make decisions. She needs to step down from a leader-like position in the group and let others' opinions be heard. She needs to be less of a leader and more of a follower.
Conor: His arc centers around being more of a leader. He learns to trust himself, step up as leader, and be less of a follower. He learns that even though he messed up when he gave away the Iron Boar, he can still step up and make decisions and lead the group. He learns to be more sure of himself and less shy.
I love Reilin and Coneke as much as the next person, but platonic Rollan x Abeke and platonic Meilin x Conor is something that I don't see much of. I think it's so interesting that their character developments are mirror images of each other. They need to be a bit more like the other person was at the beginning of the book. It also creates an opportunity where the characters can learn these traits from each other, and I really enjoyed how it played out in the books. It's such an interesting dynamic.
It also shows how neither extreme is ever healthy: you shouldn't trust people too little, lest you end up like Rollan, but you shouldn't trust people too much, either, or else you'll end up like Abeke. You shouldn't be too controlling and bossy, or else you'll end up like Meilin, but you shouldn't be afraid to step up either, lest you end up like Conor.
I don't know if the writers did this intentionally, or if it was just a byproduct of the characters, but either way, I love the way this was handled.

Do any of yall have one or two thousand draft or scrapped ideas that you want to post but you're worried that your idea is dumb or others won't like it and you just want to add to the tag because there's not a lot of post in that tag?
Also I shaved my legs yesterday and they're so smooth and that makes me really happy

tarik's death is even more devastating when you consider how much he would never know.
tarik died thinking abeke and meilin were dead and he had failed them.
tarik would never know shane was the devourer all along, he never knew abeke got her heart broken, he never knew her relationship with meilin changed for the better, that meilin and jhi were freed from the bile, that they mended their bond, that the war was ended. he never knew rollan and meilin got together.
he never knew conor got infected, that his own nephew summoned cabaro and rollan and abeke took him under their wing, that abeke reconciled with shane in the end. he never knew that abeke lost uraza, but that she got her back.
tarik never knew that rollan would eventually create a bond token, his own talisman, from tarik's old cloak. he never even knew rollan took his greencloak vows -- he could only hope. oh god. i am in so much pain.
he never got to see the four grow up. change. mature. become stronger. love each other deeper.
i'm choosing to believe erdas has an afterlife of some kind and tarik has been watching over his kids the whole time bc it's too painful to imagine otherwise.

Hai it’s been a while
Anyway, I was just thinking about the possibility of the Great Beasts outliving their human partners and eventually regaining their former size + ability to speak.
We don't know why those heroes from the third arc left behind ghosts. Maybe that's just a result of forming a bond token? (Maybe you'll have huge regrown talking Beasts and their friends/ex-partners who are ghosts. Maybe they're carrying around those bond tokens (and the associated ghosts) like their new Talismans.)

Does anyone have a book they read whenever they’re sick or have specific ailments for me whenever I get a bad allergic reaction to bugs I read spirit animals blood ties.
