then let us be menaces.

Violet: Are you ready to commit? Xaden: Like a crime or a relationship?

I’m gonna be so real I get annoyed when people talk like Asher was a horrible parent after reading Onyx Storm when we have SUCH little information on the why for the dedication. Like, there’s clearly so much backstory that we don’t know yet when it comes to Asher and what he did on the isles and how it’s related to everything currently happening, and I’m actually excited to learn more about WHY he dedicated Violet rather than basing my opinions of him off the obviously not entirely correct face value reason given in the book of “fixing her”. There’s more to the story! Which is like, literally the whole theme of the series!

if andarna had a pov it would just be her chasing around broccoli and the gryphon’s, while tairn and sygael are chasing after her saying “we do not eat our allies!!!!”

expanding to: Andarna would try to munch Broccoli exactly once, Broccoli would get all puffed up and hiss directly at her, and Andarna would decide that she likes her attitude so they’re now best friends

Writers are scary because we’ll take personal trauma and think, "Hmm… what if this happened to my fictional characters but worse?"
