(Some of these are quite old haha. I also apologize for the quality)

Spoilers for the whole series!

(When I showed this to my dad he was like "is this all from the same book" and I was like "dad this is all the same character." Also i might make another one with some screenshots haha)

I think I'm funny

I was watching LotR the other day and when we got to this scene I was like "oh i should make a meme about n!obe"-- lo and behold, i had already done it and just forgot about it.

I had to edit this for a typo after downloading it off the program I used to make it so that's why the word "trauma" looks goofy lol

I think I'm very funny.

Headcanon that before Sara, the orphans, Armulyn, and Artham went to Anniera, they found some random horse outside Dugtown and Artham recognized him so they brought Danny with them to Anniera and he lived happily ever after.

For context my family went to Whataburger and when I saw this I thought of Artham so of course I took a picture to make a meme.

And last but not least the memes inspired by my childhood of Minecraft (as though I don't play it anymore aixjsniak)

Janner Name Meaning: “one who lives near the sea"

Kalmar Name Meaning: “merchant"

Leeli Name Meaning: “gift of heaven"

Nia Name Meaning: “purpose, bright"

Artham Name Meaning: “one who possesses meaning"

Esben Name Meaning: “divine bear"

Podo Name Meaning: “foot"

~*Spoilers*~ for all the books

Okie so in the 3rd Wingfeather show episode Tink calls Peet old and I just. I just wanna address that for a second because it’s been poking around in my mind ever since. xD

So here’s what I think the ages of the adults in the Wingfeather Saga are as based on the kid’s ages, how long it’s been since Anniera fell and logic:

Let’s start with Esben and Nia. Since their kiddos were very little when Anniera fell (Janner was only three) it follows that they were also quite young, I’m gonna say mid-20′s, around 24-25. Nine years later that’d make them 33-34 years old, which seems logical.

I headcanon that Artham and Esben have the same age gap as Janner and Kal, so assuming Artham is only a year older than his brother that’d put him at about 25-26 (my age ;-;) when Anniera fell and 34-35 during the events of the series. That’s. That’s not old. Even if you headcanon him as several years older than Esben (say 3 or so) he’d still be in his 30′s.

(I’m not knocking Tink btw, he’s 11 and everyone’s old when you’re a little kid, especially weird guys with whitish gray hair that you don’t know are related to you.)

I don’t have any concrete idea of how old Podo is and it bothers me, Leeli in book 4 keeps saying he’s like, really old, but she’s also 9 so that’s probably not reliable. Assuming Nia’s in her 30′s during the books Podo is probably(?) in his mid-late 60′s. (Especially since we know he did a LOT when he was young, he ran with the Stranders, he was a pirate, and when he came to the Hollows he said he never sailed again until he traveled to Anniera for Nia’s wedding). I feel like Wendolyn was younger than him by maybe 5-6 years since she isn’t married when they meet, despite being an attractive and well-to-do young woman.

Mentioning grandparents, has anyone else ever wondered where the HECK Artham and Esben’s parents are? Like, they’re barely even mentioned in the books, I think we actually learn their names from a genealogy Janner gets from Oskar/the Great Library. And this is especially weird when you consider that Podo and Wendolyn are actively helping Nia and the kids escape when Anniera falls. That, and Esben is king already when Anniera falls and unless their parents had kids when they were older (which is possible) they won’t be that old and Idk why his dad wouldn’t still be ruling. Like, why pass the throne off to your 20-something son if you don’t have to? Why not train him more?

So here’s what I think happened to Jru and Nala Wingfeather: I think Bonifer killed them. Not Bonifer himself, of course, but I think he arranged their deaths in some way. It would be pretty easy, tbh, to have an “accident” where they died. All you’d need to do would be hire some pirates to attack a ship they’re sailing on, or sabotage the ship so that it sank once it set sail.

Bonifer would have several good motives for this, I think. First and foremost, it’s going to be much easier for him to trick Esben, a brand-new, very young, king into believing his lies than an older, more experienced, king and queen. Not that I think Esben (or Artham) was an idiot, but Bonifer has had a really long time to learn how to lie and be a terrible person, and the younger you are the more likely you are to fall for stuff like that (generally speaking, there are always exceptions. like, I don’t think Maraly would have been easily tricked by Bonifer’s shenanigans because she grew up with the Stranders who are a bunch of lying tricksters. Meanwhile, Janner was tricked because he grew up among trustworthy and loving adults. Same thing with Esben and Artham).

Second, it’s possible that Jru and/or Nala had learned something that made them suspicious of Bonifer or were close to finding something about Gnag/the Fangs that would have ruined their plans, so Bonifer had them killed. Again, it’s really easy to set up an “accident”, especially when sailing is involved.

And finally, Bonifer just. really hates the Wingfeathers. Because he’s got issues. So of course he’d try to cause them all the suffering he could.

because I need something to keep my sanity and cause I'm getting sucked back in to the fandom lol

—Kalmar: I'm usually that person who has no idea what's going on.—

—Artham: Ok so, apparently the "bad vibes" I've been feeling are actually severe psychological distress.—

—Janner: Could you be anymore annoying?

Kalmar: Yes.—

—Arundelle: Where’s Artham ?

Leeli: Around.

Arundelle: Around?

Arundelle: You don’t have any idea, do you?

Artham , dropping down from above: Did you know there’s a space above the ceiling?— (He would totally do this and you can't change my mind)

—Nia: That's ridiculous, Esben doesn't have a crush on me.

Artham: Yes he does.

Arundelle: Yes he does.

Esben: Yes I do.—

—Nia, in a room with Esben, Arundelle, and Artham: It’s calm in here.

Nia: It scares me…

—Kalmar: The Ocean is a soup.

Janner:

Janner: Do elaborate.

Kal: What are needed for something to be a soup?

Janner: Erm... Water, salt, some form of vegetation, and personally I prefer some meat in mine.

Kal: *Tilts head*

Janner: The Ocean is a Soup.

Kalmar: The Ocean is a Soup.—

—Janner: I hope you have an explanation for this.

Kalmar: We have three, actually!

Maraly: Pick your favorite.—

—Kalmar: ATTENTION: I HAVE BREACHED CONTAINMENT.

Kalmar: DO NOT PANIC, I AM SIMPLY GETTING A SNACK.—

—Bonifer Squoon: Am I a good person? No. But do I try to be better every single day? Also no.—

this was inspired by @mozart-the-meerkitten

Esben: If I didn't know any better, I'd say you're impressed. Nia: But you do know better.

Gnag the Nameless : The best person I know is myself

Bonifer Squoon: Don’t worry, I have a permit. Esben: ...This just says “I can do what I want”.

Esben: *About to do something incredibly stupid* Artham: I know I can't stop you, but I won't let you go by yourself.

Kalmar: I’m doing my best. Janner: You’re not doing anything. Kalmar: Yes, that’s what I’m best at.

Leeli: I think this might be a bad idea... Kalmar: Don't start thinking on me now!
