#fablehaven ships

[aaronisapyromaniac]

I remember meeting someone who didn't like brakendra, I got excited because I didn't like the ship either, they're fine as friends but still- Neither of us liked the ship for multiple reasons

But then.

They said they shipped Kendra x Raxtus

AND I TRY NOT TO SHIP SHAME I REALLY DON'T- BUT THE MAIN REASON THAT THEY DIDN'T LIKE BRACKEN WAS BECAUSE HE WAS OLD

RAXTUS IS OLD TOO HES CONSIDERED AN ADULT DRAGON IN THE BOOKS ITS NOT HIS FAULT HES SHORT AND SCARED

Y'know. Middle grade fantasy is great. Middle grade fantasy knows what the people want. I want to read more middle grade fantasy. Just like when I was a kid

having the worst day everrrr4ever so heres art for my magical role reversal au ❓‼️

vers without a background bc im not sure if i like it el oh el

[mercutiotakethewheel]

Kendra, inwardly: Omg I am so scared right now. I’m going to die here. This freakyass magical creatures about to do me in. And could do so easily, which I am imagining very vividly right now. Those are huge teeth. I am fighting god to hold it together right now. I don’t want to die. Why am I here? Just to suffer, every night I close my eyes and—

Kendra, outwardly: I cast vicious mockery.

I feel like Bracken/Brackendra had the potential to be like. Not Weird if Brandon Mull actually wrote it that way. Like if he had actually made it so that Bracken was actually mentally 17 and not a full grown unicorn (see: Bracken having his third horn and reaching "maturity") and made Kendra, well, not 14 when they met. Brandon Mull seems to go back and forth on whether or not its weird for them to have feelings for eachother (it is, at least the way Brandon wrote it). In ROTDS when Ronodin proposes to Kendra, she's like "omg ew,,ur so much older than me" and then. Calls Bracken her boyfriend. You know. The guy thats the same age as Ronodin.

When Bracken first appeared in the prison with Seth, I actually really liked him. He was witty and actually had some personality. But then when Kendra met him, all his personality became reduced to "ok guys let’s give Kendra a straight love interest because we killed the last one in the previous book". I just feel like the two Brackens we met are so different in terms of how they interact with the story. Sorry for ranting but as a previous Brackendra girlie its just interesting to think about

Bracken and seth bonding time

It's so bamboozlingly funny because bracken is a unicorn and Seth says he's hungry and if he's really hungry he'll be so hungry he could eat a horse and unicorn is a horse get it so funny all my friends giggled

"But Gavin is dead" "But he betrayed everyone" "But Kendra has someone else"

I DON'T GIVE A FUCK-

[aerinsfables]

Found this in my Google docs, too! I think I was trying to fit this scene into In The Darkness, but it just wouldn’t work. So I tailored it a little and now imagine it takes place idk somewhere during book 5 before Graulas torched Fablehaven I guess 🤷‍♀️

It’s a mini therapy session between Dale and Vanessa.

——

“Just having a low day?” he asked.

“I messed things up pretty badly.”

He leaned back against one of the porch’s support beams. “You know, if I hadn’t been pinned when you were revealed to be our traitor, I would’ve tried to kill you.”

She bowed her head. “I know.” He would’ve tried to kill her, and she would’ve done whatever it took to protect herself.

Dale looked out across the yard and was silent for a long pause. He glanced at her briefly before he admitted, “I’m glad I was pinned.”

That caught Vanessa’s interest. “Really?”

“Yeah,” he said. His gaze remained focused on some point across the yard; Vanessa couldn’t tell exactly what he was looking at.

“Why?” she asked. “You have plenty of reasons to hate me. Everyone does. I don’t think Ruth will ever trust me again.”

Dale scratched at the scruff on his chin and turned his full attention to her. “I’ve never been particularly good at hating. It takes too much energy, and the days are already tiring enough as is.”

Vanessa didn’t know what to say. She was used to the sideways looks she attracted from what felt like everyone, the conversations which would cease the moment she stepped into a room, sensitive planning meetings which she wasn’t invited to attend.

“You think you’re the only person who’s ever made bad decisions? The only one who regrets their actions? The first person on earth to be duped by someone they’ve admired and trusted? Really?” He shook his head. “Nope.”

“You too?”

“Yes. Not the same circumstances, but yes.” He looked back out across the yard. “All we can do is try again.”

Vanessa turned her attention to a few meandering fairies across the yard as well. “I feel terrible,” she mumbled.

Dale was quiet for a moment, then said, “You should. But don’t stay in that place. Do something about it.”

“How do I redeem myself, though?” she asked. She craved a real answer from him - how could she prove that she had changed?

He began to shrug, but stopped midway and smirked. “Well, we do have a couple of kids with a knack for getting into a lot of trouble. I’m sure something’ll come up eventually. It might be a good move to start there.”

Vanessa leaned her chin onto her knee. “What about the interim?”

“What about teaching the troublemakers some skills?” he suggested.

For what felt like the first time in days, she smiled a little. “I’ll think on that,” she said. “Thank you, Dale. I don’t deserve your kindness.”

“Sure,” he said. “Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go make sure the new barn door Hugo put in today is functional. The chores never end…”

She laughed under her breath a little as he grumbled while he walked away.

vampire gavin/part human kendra

(bonus! kendra is magically inclined and can sense when someone is magical)

[saneperhaps]

A frog once asked a centipede how is it able to walk on a hundred feet, so gracefully synchronized while the frog finds it difficult to manage even two. The centipede took a moment to analyze its own walk and was baffled. So as it tried to walk further its feet got entangled and it tripped.

[sinnbaddie]

Forever side eyeing that person who tried saying I was toxic and a bad person for disliking Kendra in the first part of the series.

Everytime I remember the series I’m reminded of that, like genuinely tried canceling me for an opinion.

[carolinelikesdinner]

The council has spoken

[fangsinmypants]

Sphinx x Bracken yaoi 😛😛😛😛😛

Prison shipping or whatever.......

[notcryingtoday]

okay my very serious fancast for fablehaven (would never happen because some actors should be ten years younger at least)

Emma Watson as Kendra Sorenson

Okay, I know it's hard to unsee her as Hermione but look at her. Especially with her hair like that: SHE IS KENDRA. Her dubious hair color and texture, even the clothes are like... Kendra definitely dress like that.

Walker Scobell as Seth Sorenson

Well, in my head Seth has brown hair. But Walker would have played him so well PLEASE. Plus Emma and him could pass as brother and sister. Anyway this one is mostly for vibes but I do think taking a random chaotic kid with no peculiar physical traits and dressing him in the most horrendous outfits would work just fine.

Young Colin Ford however does look like Seth too if the movie wants to go for a 2000 vibe:

Henry Collett as Gavin Rose

He looks both sweet and able to swing a sword. He already played a dragon tamer. He could be the worst man alive and no one would blame Kendra for falling for him. And TBH it's EXACTLY like that that I pictured Gavin before seeing It (2017) and starting to merge the two stuttering characters together (brain wasn't braining).

Milly Alcock as Bracken

Okay I think I need to justify myself here. But, look at her. She has a soft face, but we know she can look like a badass too. She has the pretty white hair. With a little imagination, she's totally in love with a girl trying to break her out of prison. They would be a power couple. Female Bracken would make me ship Brakendra.

Jeremys Irons as Coulter Dixon

No director instructions, just let the man plays. I just want Coulter to be the biggest hater ever and then saving Seth's life and everyone just goes Oh. Oh. (Yeah the fanfiction Oh). Like the man actually cares. I feel like Jeremy Irons would do well.

David Tennant/Pedro Pascal as Patton Burgess

Self-explanatory. Patton is a middle age man with an awesome mustache. Only those two could pull the gentleman adventurer that seduced a naiad and went on adventures around the world. I don't know which one I like more tbh!

Jared Padalecki as Warren Burgess

Then you just ask him to play like he's Dean Winchester. Because PHYSICALLY, he looks like Warren but I do believe Warren acts kinda like Dean? So yeah. But same perfect face so...

Josh Hutcherson as Dale Burgess

I swear I'll come up with something better. But like... Yeah well. I have no explanation. He could play the role just fine, especially the big brother side who's like, everyone's favorite side character. But yeah, Dale is supposed to be super tall and Josh is like... WELL not that tall. I also do remember Kendra saying Dale and Warren didn't look alike that much but had a "feeling they were from the same family" (kinda). I think that could work.

I'll do a part two when I'll find a fancast for the others lol

For the fanfic writer asks: 13, 15, and 17 please!

13. a fandom you’re thinking about writing for

oh there's a ton. i have shelves wips for the IT movies, mona lisa smile, the last of us, the fnaf movie, fablehaven, five kingdoms, oz, phantom of the opera, the man from snowy river, and life is strange. there's so many (and that's just ones i haven't done any for yet, to say nothingggg of fandoms i've already posted for). and yet i keep writing narnia.

15. favorite weather for writing

honestly i don't really have one. i will write in any weather at any time. but i do like nice rainy afternoons when i have no responsibilities other than settling down and working on a wip.

17. talk about your writing and editing process

it's changed a bit recently honestly. i now outline all of my fics by hand before i actually start working on them, which makes the process itself much easier (if a bit lengthier) and then i will tend to edit as i go, rereading whatever i wrote last time and working it over as i read before starting up work again. i try to have one or two full run-throughs to check for typos and adjust for flow before i post, at least one in ao3 draft mode bc switching to a different font usually means i find more typos and yet there's ALWAYS MORE that i MISSED but i simply don't care enough to mess with a beta.

and then months later i go back to reread and i'm like man i should change this little bit and there's ANOTHER TYPO and it's like the ship of theseus. tbh. but with fanfic.

fic writer asks!!
