"I will lie down," he says, guiding me toward his enormous bed. Once there, he does not let go of my hand. "If you will lie with me."

"When I allow myself to truly think on it, I cannot fault Locke for choosing her. I am violent. I’ve been poisoning myself for weeks. I am a killer and a liar and a spy. I get why he chose her. I just wish she had chosen me."

‼️THE COURT OF SHADOWS HEADCANONS‼️
Liliver and Van would give Cardan regular updates on Jude during her exile because ofc he'd be worried sick abt her
Liliver, Van, Garret and Cardan would all play EXTREME truth or drink but because they can't lie is extra serious and ends up with a very annoyed Jude
Frequently during the exile Cardan would get super drunk and tell Liliver and Van about how much Jude means to him and when he got her the dress, write her name all over the paper and when they kissed in tcp ect ect. Liliver would probably end up crying herself to sleep that night (I don't blame her)
Liliver loves noodles and when she introduces Cardan to them he gains a new obsession with Chinese take-away
Liliver would make funny harmless bombs or potions to put people to sleep or something and plant them in Lady Asha's room. For fun, of course
Jude would braid or do Lilivers hair for her often
Cardan would help apply Lilivers make-up sometimes
Cardan insisted on putting on a party or celebration for Liliver and Van so he brought funny party hats and stuff from target and threw a party in their base
All the new recruits would be too scared to talk to Cardan (I know I would be)
The court got Cardan a pet snake/snake toy as a joke for his birthday one year and he wasn't very impressed
Liliver and Jude would often have 'girls night' but instead of doing face masks or whatnot they would throw daggers at targets and talk about the best way to kill someone with minimal damage. And gossip, of course
Cardan would go to Van for life advice a lot
I've never done hc so I hope you like them!! And I love the court of shadows so you knew they had to be my first lol
