Aww baby's very own wanted poster based on a Law X Reader fic im writing with them in mind. Aw man, mink bounties are criminally low. They tell Bepo it's easy, just come out a bloody snarling mess in battle. Oops.

Based it on the auction house prices being about $700k by default for minks. 🤷‍♀️

Sway 🎶 let the mink tribe know you are equal beings.

Vimes really was dragged into financial stability kicking and screaming

HONESTLY I don't know which watch book this is specifically in response to but since my most recent reread was Feet of Clay its making me think about Vimes ditching his new expensive functional boots at the first hint of an opportunity and demanding someone nearby trade with him so he can wander around in the fog with the soles made of wet cardboard. And he starts naming the street corner he's on by the feel of the cobbles and the other guy is like. yeah? the street sign is right there Commander I know that?

Ok so I’ve been watching the heck out of Free Rein, I am 17. I wish I discovered the show while I was in middle school! But can we seriously talk about Duke Peter Hawthorne played by Freddy Carter is a total young Kaz Brekker except he has a happy and non con life. Moody, brooding, picking locks, thieving, telling his “investment” what to do.

And watching the Shadow and Bone season 2 trailer made be beam a thousands times more! But I’ve only now noticed the shot where Kaz falls into the water, and we know his past! I really hope for a flashback scene of…well if you read the books, you know!! 🧟‍♂️

can i just say the grand duke wyll with a romanced tav nominated to also be a grand duke ending is so crazy. imagine being, like, the ruler of Elturel and like, you've just gotten out of literal hell right, and it seems like your neighboring city Baldur's Gate is going through... Something but you dont really know whats going on there and youre too busy to do anything more than eye it anxiously.

and then like 2 months later you get a missive from the new Dukes of Baldur's Gate 1) Ulder Ravengard, Head of the Flaming Fists, 2) Ulder Ravengard's EXILED (??) son who is a DEVIL (?!??!) 3) the Ravengard son's spouse, and 4) known ally of Ulder Ravengard, Florrick and they are informing you that every single other powerful noble in Baldur's Gate is dead and they are in charge now :). i would lose my damn mind.

i love the history of dukedoms. sometimes it's sorry you're illegitimate, hope this dukedoms finds you well. sometimes it's i'm half the duke of aquitaine on my mother's side. sometimes it's you're loyal to me and your dad wasn't really a traitor when you think about it so here, have your dad's dukedoms back and his attainder reversed. sometimes it's you're hot and i want to bang you, have a dukedom. sometimes it's so my nephew died through definitely legal means, would you like his dukedom which you also have a claim to? and sometimes it's what the hell, have hereford.

Redesign of Carrot bc she was great and deserves better than that shit design (bottom right is final design)

Okay, hear me out. I've found something funny to think about.

So. We have this. Break and another one of his creative outfits:

For the context: After the disaster that was Oz's birthday ceremony, Gil ran away into the forest. And there he was found by Break, who had his reasons for following him, and most importantly, a plan, for which he needed Gil.

This happened less than a few hours after Break and Sharon left the same ceremony. There's a rain that started while they were in the carriage.

But here's Break at the same day, a few hours ago:

Look at his coat, it's in the perfect condition here.

But later this day, it already looks like this:

And, like. Did he literally got the hem of his coat all torn while making his way through the forest? I bet he then looked at it and went: "You know what, this can be a fashion statement".

Also I like how he looked like a more-or-less normal person during that ceremony, but then the minute he left this high-society gathering, he decided that it's time to be himself again. Bring out the fancy hat and this idiotic, purely decorative umbrella! And of course the garters/harnesses on his leg must be visible.

Also, once again, Break was in the carriage with Sharon. How exactly did he end up here? Did he just notice Gil from the window and went: "Wait, stop the carriage, I remember this kid from the Abyss. And I have an idea." And then off to the forest he goes.

(Spoiler: this plan has everything to do with a certain investigation Xerxes is personally conducting, but it's a long and complicated story, so not today)

in the flowers in the palace au, when did lwj realize that she was in love with wwx? It seems like she knows by the first part of the series, since lqr is trying to encourage lwj to marry and she's refusing, so did lwj fall in love when wwx was studying at the cr (if that happened in this verse)?

Lan Wangji's love realization happens when Wei Wuxian breaks into the Cloud Recesses to comfort her in "for myself, in my frenzied heart." This doesn't have much to do with Lan Wangji's refusal to marry; she was simply raised differently from most other girls in the FITP universe, because Lan Qiren and Qingheng-jun knew they could rely on Nie Mingjue to protect her after their deaths through NMJ's marriage to Lan Xichen.

During Lan Wangji's childhood, Nie Mingjue's father was a high-ranking general who controlled the most important military garrison in the empire, and LQR/QHJ were confident that Lan Wangji would be free to live the life she wanted (and stay safe from power plays within the Lan clan) as long as LXC had the Nie family behind her. Thus, LWJ was allowed to choose the subjects she studied after she came of age; and when she decided to pursue higher studies in music and weapons training instead of learning how to manage a household, QHJ didn't object.

By 21, Lan Wangji would have found it extremely difficult to fulfill any of the responsibilities of a gentry wife, so QHJ/LQR never considered marrying her off until Qin Su joined NMJ's harem as a concubine (signaling a loss of favor/power on Lan Xichen's part).
