The Cruel Prince Deleted Scene 1
I am in shambles. I have so much to say about this. Are they running away? At what point in the story is this? Jude is literally pointing out that he’s selfish but is capable of feeling bad about it. Cardan is making grand gestures of apology?? What?? Holly drop the rest of the deleted scenes, please!!!!!
I ALSO WANT TO HEAR WHAT HES GOING TO SAY NEXT DONT STOP ON MY ACCOUNT OMFG

my favorite cardan greenbriar quotes because I love him
spoilers for the folk of the air series
The Cruel Prince:
“Most of all, I hate you because I think of you. Often, it’s disgusting, and I can’t stop” (yes this is my only fav quote of cardan in the first book help)
The Wicked King:
“If you’re the sickness, I suppose you can’t also be the cure.”
“Kiss me. Kiss me until I'm sick of it”
"I want to tell you so many lies."
“I wasn't kind, Jude. Not to many people. Not to you. I wasn't sure if I wanted you or if I wanted you gone from my sight so that I would stop feeling as I did, which made me even more unkind. But when you were gone -truly gone beneath the waves- I hated myself as I never have before.”
“Yes, my sweet villain, my darling god.”
"Sweet Jude. You're my dearest punishment."
"Marry me. Become the queen of Elfhame."
“I will lie down. If you lie with me”
The Queen of Nothing:
“She is my wife. The rightful High Queen of Elfhame. And most definitely not in exile.” (ICONIC)
“want you here by my side, as my queen”
“By you, I am forever undone”
“We have lived in our armor for so long, you and I. And now I am not sure if either of us knows how to remove it.”
“My sweet nemesis, how glad I am that you returned.”
“It’s you I love,’ he says. ‘I spent much of my life guarding my heart. I guarded it so well that I could behave as though I didn’t have one at all. Even now, it is a shabby, worm-eaten, and scabrous thing. But it is yours.’”
“Come home and shout at me. Come home and fight with me. Come home and break my heart, if you must. Just come home.”
“And yet my heart is buried with you in the strange soil of the mortal world, as it was drowned with you in the cold waters of the Undersea. It was yours before I could admit it, and yours it shall ever remain.”
“I urge you: come be angry at a nearer distance.”
“I knew little else, but I always knew you.”

The Cruel Prince Deleted Scene 2
In this, “high king” Balekin is forcing Jude (who is pretending to be ensorcelled) to serve her family dinner before he locks her up in a cell, and Cardan leaves a key behind to help Jude escape 😭
(edited to cut out my MISREAD because I’m an overexcited dolt)***

Okay, was anybody gonna tell me that The Cruel Prince Collector's Edition finally has photos?
Or was I just supposed to find that out for myself while disassociating in the middle of my work day?
And YES I do believe that is Jude in the bloody coronation dress Cardan sent her that you are viewing on the end pages right there. :)
