Jude isn’t Balekin’s murderer; she is the fulfilment of his curse.

okay, so hear me out. i’ve been seeing a lot of people stressed that Jude betrayed Cardan’s one request to not murder Balekin, and i have come to testify on her behalf. 

i don’t know if anyone has said this already, but i’ve been rereading TFOTA- as one does when the stress of life compels them- and something clicked this time through that didn’t click with me before.

I. The Crown’s Curse

in chapter 17 of The Cruel Prince, Jude asks Dulcamara in a lecture what would happen if someone tried to steal the crown instead of having it placed upon their head by another in Mab’s bloodline. this is Dulcamara’s response:

Jude basically is just like “huh. interesting.” and goes on with her day. but three chapters later, in chapter 20 (otherwise known as the Death chapter), Eldred takes the crown off his head.

my morning routine is wake up yawn like a cartoon character in a fairytale then stare at the ceiling for 2 hours and recover from the insane and prophetic dreams ive had

in england, they have no word for love

breakfastless behavior

People always sleeping on Matthias and how much he loved Nina. Man literally dropped:

"Meeting you was a disaster... but I am grateful every day for that disaster. I needed a cataclysm to shake me from the life I knew. You were an earthquake, a landslide... you aren't a flower, you're every blossom in the wood blooming at once. You are a tidal wave. You're a stampede. You are overwhelming... there is nothing I want more than to be overwhelmed by you."

And no one ever talks about it.

pretty sure i could romanticise anything, i am deeply delusional.

not to be earnest and sincere but using this site really is starting to feel like a genuinely unique and enjoyable experience compared to most other social media apps and how they operate now. and i think all of the cringe i used to feel at still being on tumblr after all these years is turning into unabashed fondness for the people and the environment on here
