why is this the hottest thing i've ever seen

[crazedpersonwholikesbooks]

i learned about Tim Wong who successfully and singlehandedly repopulated the rare California Pipevine Swallowtail butterfly in San Francisco. In the past few years, he’s cultivated more than 200 pipevine plants (their only food source) and gives thousands of caterpillars to his local Botanical Garden (x)

legendborn theories

So I had to take a moment to collect my thoughts after reading Bloodmarked and I have some theories on how this series is going to end:

I think Nick is going to sacrifice himself. In Bloodmarked, the scene where Nick makes the decision to not got with them, I felt was very pivotal and foretelling (in the 1st book he was taken, in this book he left willing). I think in the 3rd book he will leave them permanently. The scene where all 3 of them are in the bloodwalk and Nick looks b/w Bree & SEl, to me that read that he was tired of losing people and made the decison to do whatever it takes to not lose the last 2 people he cares about.

Nick is going to have a corruption arc/go dark. In th finale Nick says "I can't lose you; I won't lose her" and he ended up losing BOTH of them. Nick at the end of BM has lost his mom, his dad, his bodyguard whose been with him since he was a child, and now the love of his life. He's lost eveyone he has ever cared about. and I think that is what is going to tip him over the edge. I hope Tracy does 3 POV of Sel, Bree, and Nick since the trio is now scattered.

Finally, I think this book will end in betrayal, but this time a love betrayal. In the Arthurian legend, Lancelot betrays Arthur because of love. After Nick decides to not go w/ them, both Sel and Bree feel betrayed. They eventually kiss (its important to note that Bree is the one that kisses Sel; compared to in LB where Nick makes the 1st move on Bree). By then end of the book Nick does not know that Bree and Sel have kissed, or that Bree sacrificed her life/freedom for Sel who did the same for her. As far as Nick knows, Bree only has feelings for him. So couple w/ the fact that there is romance b/w Bree & Sel, and that Nick is mostly going to go dark, I think Nick may end up turning against them becuz he feels betrayed.

Idk im just theorizing here. I think Bree has something up her sleeve becuz I don't think she world dive in head first into a bargain like that.

I also think that Sel may get his humanity back but at a price (im thinking in terms of Zuko, he will have permanent marks on his face or something).

I think there may end up being a final battle b/w Nick and Bree. And i think there is going to be 1-2 yr time jump. (imagine that, having to fight ur 1st love, Tracy WOULD do something like that)

Alice will wake up becuz BM hinted that Alice may have root flowing through her, so I think she will heal but it may take some time.

Idk, let me know what y'all think.

Antique book covers

It's interesting that the female companions take on much more militaristic roles than the males.

Lae'zel is the gung-ho new recruit, Karlach is the seasoned but still rather young soldier, Minthara is the combat hardened old vet, and Shadowheart belongs to a shady mercenary group who has their own goals separate from the rest.

Meanwhile, the men are all dealing with abusive relationships, and issues surrounding sex and power imbalances.

It's an interesting dynamic.

The Best Part about Baldur's Gate 3 is I can put any of these blorbos together and have a good ship.

Like, my top three are

Lae'zel x Shadowheart - Enemies to lovers girlies who tried to murder each other numerous times. They turn against their god and now can go take care of their owl bear and githyanki kid. Plus the bury the hatchet exchange cracks me up.

Gale x Astarion - Autism wizard rizz vs vampire seductive rizz. Who wins? The answer may surprise you.

Wyll x Karlach - THE GOODEST BABIES DESERVE TO BE HAPPY AND BE IN FAERUN BUT THEM STICKING TOGETHER TO HELP KARLACH AND THEN THEM COMING BACK AND PROTECTING THE SWORD COAST TOGETHER AFTER THEY FIX KARLACH'S ENGINES

But like

Lae'zel x Gale - Gale's genuine interest in the githyanki and being able to teach Lae'zel all about faerun? Adorable as hell.

Astarion x Shadowheart- Goth bitches, do hair together, drink wine and talk shit about everyone. Also what vampire doesn't want a hot girlfriend who can cast daylight and just ruin Cazador's day?

Astarion x Wyll - Wyll using all his knowledge of vampires to help Astarion and he would totally help Astarion find a cure.

Karlach x Astarion - Now I prefer Gale x Astarion because personal preference but like, this is the second healthiest dynamic by virtue of Astarion's bullshit don't work on the woman who can't touch. And how excited he is when you finally get to kiss? Fucking hell.

Wyll x Gale - look at their interactions they are fucking adorable. Wyll trying to give Gale a nickname???? And them being good boys together???

Shadowheart x Karlach - Ball of sunshine x someone who really needs one to be dragged out her shell. Plus Shadowheart needs a hug.

Lae'zel x Karlach - violent women who will ruin your day if you piss them off, expect one of those women will hold the other one back if you don't deserve it.

I just need an update where you can make this a polycule.
