Maxine was done SO DIRTY up until the end of the season. I relate to her and I feel so bad :( "we just grew apart, so what"????????

She just wants to talk about her feelings and communicate, no one can convince me that isn't okay

[reyleese]

Can we please get some support for Max.. I feel like she’s getting closer to a point of drowning and I honestly think something big is going to happen before anyone even looks her way to support her

what I want to see for season 4 for each of the characters:

- Ginny: stable life and be a poet

- Marcus: rehab/sober and Ginny

- Georgia: therapy and Joe

- Joe: Georgia

- Abby: recovery from her ED and realize her self worth. maybe thrive as a writer or something.

- Maxine: realized neurodivergent diagnosis and better friends that understand her and meet her on her level (be that being in mang or elsewhere)

- Norah: endometriosis diagnosis?

- Austin: therapy

I LOVE Max so much and part of me is waiting for the moment she just goes completely silent or does something drastic and only then are people going to notice how they have NEVER really checked in with her or asked if she was okay…

She’s been told she’s “too much” by everyone she loves and all she wants to do is take care of the people she loves…

Can’t wait for season 4.!!!

Then the Wolf of White Roaring scooped her into his arms and took her away.

I still totally ship Wednesday and Tyler.. they’re perfect for each other, and just psychotic enough to do anything for each other.

I love it.!!!

Tairn blowing his side of the bond wide open so Violet feels less alone and just pretending he’s not broken 301 dragon laws in doing so is my favourite part of the book

Kamran sucks…

After reading All This Twisted Glory, I have seriously tuned this guy out so hard. In This Woven Kingdom, I noticed he was learning things and maybe they would lead him to become a more well rounded person, but no matter what he hears he’s just thinking of himself. It doesn’t even matter if what he hears it true, someone he doesn’t even know will say something random and he acts as if it’s gospel if he pleases.

He seems to paint himself a victim constantly, and I really struggle with that because he hasn’t actually DONE anything.! He hasn’t fought for his people in any way shape or form, even when he was in the first book and still technically in power. He hasn’t little patience for anyone but himself, and yet he’s constantly acting and speaking, and MAKING DECISIONS FOR ALIZEH, as though he has any right to do so.

Honestly, Huda has become more of a stand up character. I do still think she doesn’t have great common sense always when it comes to other people’s feelings or lives, but holy crap when she starts ripping Kamran apart for his arrogance and privilege and whiney behaviour, I love it.

*** Onyx Storm Theories/Questions ***

So I just watched this guy’s video where he broke down how to pronounce each dragon name, along with their meaning. The dragons are in Scottish Gàidhlig.

I noticed that quite a few of the names are related to the power their rider has. Tairneanach means “Thunder”, Andarnaurram means “The second honour” (which makes sense because she’s Violet’s second dragon), Sgaeyl means “Shadow”, Aimsir means “Weather”, Codagh means “War”, etc…

Obviously this isn’t for every single dragon and rider, but there are some that make me curious about the future of the riders. Brendan’s dragon, Marbh means “Death”. Brennan is quite famously known as a mender, a rare signet and different from the healing signet. But what does it mean for Brennan? It could very well symbolize the fact that he himself was thought to be dead and in a way was his strongest in “death”, as that was when he began working for the rebellion. It could also have to do with the fact that Naolin died to save him, perhaps meaning more about Brennan causing the death of others to survive. This being said, there’s also been some theories (that I don’t actually vibe with kuz I’d be sad if it happened) that Brennan is in league with the venin, and he himself is the cause of Naolin’s death. Not my favourite theory, but it is out there.

We don’t yet know Garrick’s signet, and his dragons name, Chradh, means “Pain”. I wonder if he has some form of way to cause others pain, like the girl in Twilight who is part of the Vulturie and causes pain. However, as signets are based on the needs of the riders, I wonder if his has more to do with others pain. Perhaps he is able to sense or feel others pain, and that’s one of the reasons it’s kept more quiet than the others, because his signet is entirely rooted in others horrible moments. This would make sense to me as being part of the academy, best friends worth Xaden and Bodhi, and partial leader of the newly formed rebellion, it’s possible it was essential to him to be aware of his peoples pain and vulnerabilities. RY also said Garrick’s signet is her favourite.

RY mentioned in an interview that Dain was one of her favourite characters, and as much as we all hate to hear it I do have some ideas as to the complexities of his character. Cath means “Battle”, and I feel like important is the internal battle he fights everyday to understand his new reality. He once said to Violet that the riders quadrant would strip down all the fancy stuff to who you were at your core. Dain, like so many others, was basically reliant on the rule book for the quadrant. His entire faith was basically rebuilt on the rules of this system and now he’s facing the reality that that very system is corrupt. Dain definitely fucks up, don’t get me wrong, but I wonder if he’s one of RY’s favourites because he has so much development to go through in the rest of the series.

I have so many questions.!!!

the only correct way to read the empyrean series is to finish both books, freak the fuck out, then re-read both of them in a completely new light

then wait for onyx storm, shuddering in fear.
