And Baru cast the first dart at hand, the words that set the coopers and the fishmongers and the bannermen of Lyxaxu and Oathsfire and Unuxekome roaring: “Show them who should rule Aurdwynn, and why.” Vultjag! the poorer parts of the crowd screamed, a raw astonished sound. Vultjag!

i’m reading the traitor baru cormorant and the best way i can describe the experience is that it’s like if gideon the ninth was told from harrow’s pov. i do not know what’s happening. i need an unreliable jock narrator to gloss over all the political machinations and tell me how hot (or not) everyone is

#am i enjoying it? idk i think so but again i really don’t have a grasp on the plot #i see why the tlt girlies are all over it though #also it’s taken me over two weeks to read and it’s not even that long! #not done yet so no spoilers please but if someone wants to take pity on me and explain it like i’m five #i wouldn’t say no #baru cormorant #the traitor baru cormorant

[ID: Meme of Anakin and Padme talking, edited to read: (Panel 1, Anakin) “‘The Traitor Baru Cormorant’ is about Baru rising through the ranks of an evil empire to overthrow it from within”. (Panel 2, Padme smiling) “So it’s called that because she betrays the empire, right?” Panel 3 is Anakin looking grim. (Panel 4, Padme stops smiling) “She betrays the empire, right?” End ID]

🙃.

“…Baru put her head down and, broken by this last loyalty, by Muire Lo’s scrupulous destruction of the Stahki woodsman’s book and the sins it implied, at last began to weep.”

This is for the Baru Cormorant stans out there I know you're out there hit me up about this insane woman please.

[Image description: A tarot styled piece featuring three women. One woman, Tain Hu, is in the far back, backed by what seems to be an army. Tain Hu covers the right eye of the central figure, Baru Cormorant, who holds a quill and is very poised. Tain Hu also puts a sword into Baru's right hand. In front of Baru is Aminata, holding a flag, and releasing a cormorant, which is still chained to the flag.]

Shakespeare was so right when he said there’s something delicious about a main character who, completely through choices they made on their own and often with good intention, ruins fucking everything. 

Touraine fucking everything up in a futile attempt to protect the Sands in The Unbroken. Misaki choosing tradition and family and marrying Takeru only to put herself in a deep depression for 2 decades and never really love her sons until it was too late in The Sword of Kaigen. Ouyang destroying the only person he loved out of deep resentment and self hate in She who Became the Sun. The Binewskis’ self destruction as the psychopath children each try to chase their own happiness to the detriment of the others in Geek Love. Harrow and Gideon’s whole relationship in The Locked Tomb. Literally the entire plot of in The Traitor Baru Cormorant.

"She leaned across the table, drawing him in. Saw his lips part, his eyes half-close. Felt his chin lift in her grip. Disappointed him, perhaps, by whispering in his ear instead:-"
