#high king cardan

[ira-in-ink]

[🌹]: many people have convinced themselves that jude would be the dom in the relationship. she is, and would be in their normal day to day life, but in the bedroom? i don't think so. it is said multiple times that jude isn't as experienced as cardan when it comes to s e x. and it's also like she's kind of shy about the whole thing, and gets embarrassed when she feels like cardan knows that she doesn't know what she's doing. whereas cardan, he's way more experienced and would know how to get a reaction out of jude and stuff like that. so, i think it's safe to say that he would be the dom. and i guess jude would let him. just to save her the trouble of getting nervous or embarrassed. either that, or they take turns. and i have evidence of this, when they were making out in that secret room behind the throne in the wicked king, cardan was leading. but, in the queen of nothing, during their first time, jude was leading. so, it could be that they take turns as well.

Absolutely priceless to me that Jude only realised she's in Cardan's room in Hallow Hall because she saw his closet.

Like the school books did not raise any flags at all. Why wouldn't faeries that went to that place for nothing more than partying and getting high, have their homework spread out on the table?

But the second she laid eyes in that wardrobe she really went "No bitch dresses THAT extra even in Elfhame besides THAT ONE!"

Keep staying iconic Cardan✨️

Locke saying this and getting killed by taryn is so funny lmao taryn said you're the problem and solved it by murdering him

I can’t stop thinking about how when Cardan wanted to talk to Jude about the first time they got intimate and she quickly replies she just wanted to get it out of her system, Cardan asks her “Did you? Get it out of your system?”

But what he meant was “Did you get ME out of your system, because I can’t get you out of mine nor do I want to. I only fell in deeper.”

Her reply about wanting to just get it out of her system hurt him.

When he had said “This is a terrible idea.” as he was kissing her and taking of his shirt, he didnt mean terrible as in things are gonna get weird and akward between them. He meant this was going to rattle him to the bones. This was going to make him fall in deeper for her. This was a terrible idea for him because he knew she didnt reciprocate his feelings and HE was vulnerable and going to end up hurt. It was a terrible idea for HIM.

cardan: i don't understand how people become violent when drunk, every time i get drunk i ask my wife to marry me.

jude: and i have to say "yes" every time or he starts crying.

One thing I love about The Cruel Prince: Jude put her foot down and said ‘I belong here’.

And eventually Elfhame responded and flowers grew where she bled.

Never let anyone tell you, you don’t belong.

Everyone likes to talk about "kiss me until I am sick of it."

But not enough people talk about what he said before.

(Chapter 5/page 57)

I'm not sure what point I'm trying to make with this, but I really like this part, and nobody talks about it.

[illustratinghan]

seeing as the two never got a real wedding ceremony, jude, being the queen she is, decided to surprise cardan with a new white dress and a banquet for two on their anniversary to make up for it✨💐

oh how i adore these two! @hollyblack 🫶 (peep their matching necklaces)👀
