I've finally finished foul lady fortune and foul heart hunstmen (book slump of 2 & 1/2 years)

Alisa is my favourite thing to come out of the universe.

they're all my babies

need a Celia and Oliver novella

PHOEBE'S RELATIONSHIP WITH HER MOTHER OCCUPIES MY MINDDDD

worldbuilding is fantastic I have known this since I read these violent delights.

Marshall and Orions little tryst was so unexpected YET SO ON BRAND IM OBSESSED

Rosalind telling Orions father shit was one of my favourite moments like HE JOINED A FACTION RIVALING HIS BROTHERS TO HELP YOU.

I love how none of them have healthy parental relationships i feel so seen.

Celia and Alisas sisterly relationship is the best thing ever.

I love how when Rosalind spotted Alisa at Seagreen there was an immediate understanding of trust.

Phoebe being Priest was foreshadowed throughout foul lady fortune and I feel so dumb for not seeing it (I could go into this)

Phoebe Hong I have never felt more seen by a character.

Orion and Rosalind have left me pacing my room, screaming acting like a complete maniac throughout the dualogy and they will never not occupy my mind.

Chloe gong is probably one of the best authors whose work I've read she's so good at foreshadowing and weaving plot twists I could ramble on and on.

The atmosphere of the duologies is so perfect, she captures the bustling city, political climate and society of the place at the time PEFECTLY.

I don't think I'll ever get over the secret shanghai universe it'll forever have a special place in my heart. I've loved this book series and these characters since I was like 14 and i BEG FOR A SPECIAL EDITION TO BE RELEASED IN SOUTH AFRICA OMF

flf gang as this iconic post (art by imedmi)

[pockyyasii]

currently thinking about the line from romeo and juliet “what's in a name? that which we call a rose, by any other word would smell as sweet.” and janie's actual name being rosalind

and orion not giving a shit about rosalind or janie because when he looses his memories he doesn't know rosalind's name and she is just someone whom he knew he loved and he didn't a name to know that 🥹

[writergracethepanda]

[anticipationspren]

roma, juliette, ben, mars, celia, rosalind, and alisa whenever someone mentions the year 1927

The bloodbath:

Biblically accurate romajuliette

GUYSSS TELL ME THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN IN FLF. but also. rip to rosalind's and silas' headaches from celia and orion arguing the entire time

take the L. no one press F to pay respects

TAKE THE FUCKING L DIMITRI. THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR BEING A BITCH

this hurts even more when you read it as tvd/ove alisa

PLEASE GUYS SILAS ABANDONED THEM FOR PHOEBE HONG THAT'S SO ICONIC. also literally both of these groups are "i can't believe that it's finally me and you and you and me just us and your friend STEVE" except fuck paul he's no one's friend

Literally only the montagovs have kills by the end of day 1. that's actually so iconic of them

Day 2:

LVC couple are dead </3 also what an oregon trail type death lmao what

NOOOOOO

w- what happened to their alliance in between day 2 and night 3

Day 4:

NOOOOOOO COME ON SILAS YOU'RE BETTER THAN THAT

what i'm hearing is that the tvd duology would've been over in 5 chapters if they just gave phoebe a gun (she would've been 12 years old)

that one scene in the flf duology

NOOOOO. that resurrection button is looking highly clickable rn

Day 5:

i suddenly really don't like our last two contestants

Day 6:

Orion Hong

[typingwithmyhandstied]

ALERT ALERT ALERT

[hazellevessque]

Rosalind and Celia’s relationship in As You Like It being described as “never two ladies loved as they do” and Rosalind and Celia’s relationship in Foul Lady Fortune being based on how they are loyal to each other above all else…I need to lie down

[queenofapeacefuldawn]

I'm loving all of the posts I'm seeing of new people reading Secret Shanghai for the first time. I feel like there have been a lot lately. Like, hey guys. What's up. Would you like to sit down or are you just going to stand there

[marsneedstherapy]

Celia: Oh gosh, I wish I got more sleep. I only got six hours!

Orion: Six? I only got three!

Alisa: You guys got sleep?

Rosalind comes stumbling out of her room and grabs a jug of coffee before saying: What year is it??
