I finally read « The Cruel Prince » from @blackholly and I absolutely loved it .

I had to make a drawing of this chaotic duo 🖤 🐍

Cardan half-turns, and I shove him so hard that his back hits one of the trees. His eyes go wide.

“I don’t know what you said to her, but don’t you ever go near my sister again,” I tell him, my hand still on the front of his velvet doublet. “You gave her your word.”

I can feel the eyes of all the other students on me. Everyone’s breath is drawn.

For a moment, Cardan just stares at me with stupid, crow-black eyes. Then one corner of his mouth curls. “Oh,” he says.

“You’re going to regret doing that.”

The Cruel Prince - Holly Black (Chapter 8)

Here’s a finished comic I was working on of Jude being bestowed Queen of Mirth. These characters are from the novel The Wicked King by Holly Black! It took me a while, but I’m proud of it 😮‍💨

I haven’t had the chance to work on any Jurdan art, but here’s the black and white version of my colored first kiss scene!,

[darlingod]

I lean toward him, close enough for a kiss. His eyes widen. The look in his face is some commingling of panic and desire. It is a heady feeling, having power over someone. Over 𝘊𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘢𝘯, who I never thought had any feelings at all.

“You really do want me,” I say, close enough to feel the warmth of his breath as it hitches. “And you 𝘩𝘢𝘵𝘦 it.” I change the angle of the knife, turning it so it’s against his neck. He doesn’t look nearly as alarmed by that as I might expect.

Not nearly as alarmed as when I bring my mouth to his.

Guys this took me so long but it was so worth itttt 🥲

P.s. Cardan smiles when he is nervous 🤭

[darlingod]

i think its funny how some people hate taryn more than locke, cus when you think about it he even manipulated the readers into making taryn look worse than him.

Jude Duarte fanart!💕✨ (I’m rereading The Cruel Prince by Holly Black, and I’m so hyperfixated on these books that I just had to create some fanart for it! There’s more coming of that sorta content btw…🤭😏)

I’m sorry for disappearing from Tumblr for a while there… Hehe… Whoopsie! But during that time I’ve switched from realism to a more stylised artstyle!

i don't know any more than the rest of the fans, but i do know holly black is pinning a bunch of mermaid and sea-themed inspo within the last week under a project abbreviated "LR."

i'm not saying it's related to the Undersea in Folk of the Air, but i am saying i am quietly sitting here praying for our collective return to Elfhame and any and all Cardan Greenbriar and Jude Duarte crumbs she is willing to give me. :)

Does anyone have a favorite scene or underrated moment from tfota
