The Corandry in Fate Breaker is really feeding me well I gotta say

do you have unpopular romance opinions?? mine is arranged marriage trope >>>>>>> enimies to lovers trope

oh you know me. you know I love being a contrarian shit, ofc I do 😏 Arranged marriage is on the same deluxe tier of EtL on my vague mental list, can't argue with that.

Love triangles can be fucking great if they actually are triangles and not a line between two characters and the B love interest is thrown in for cheap drama.

Friends to lovers only works if it doesn't look like a romance at all in the beginning, meaning they are actually friends. No sexual tension and annoying side characters making the pedantic comments "oh I thought you two were a couple!" or the even more infuriating "But are you SuUuUure you two are ~just friends~?" here's an example from Stranger Th*ngs:

it's so in your face and it assumes the audience is dumb I hate this. 10/10 ruins the ship for me (RIP Corandry)

the concept of Enemies to lovers has been ruined by tiktok and twitter bc y'all keep confusing "Rivals to lovers", and "Belligerent sexual tension" with EtL. it drives me up the fucking wall. get your tropes right people👏 Simon and Daphne WERE NOT ENEMIES AKJSDBFKJED

i was trying to remember nir’s last name (it’s corandris), and my brain decided it’s automata. like the fucking game. 

my brain is a stupid, stupid place sometimes.

Notes for Spine of Steel (Alt Fate Breaker epilogue):

Corayne: “I wonder where Taristan and Erida are. If they’re even alive.”

Also Corayne: “They had the Crossroads at their fingertips. They could’ve gone anymore.”

More Corayne: “Something in me hopes they’re happy. Even without the realm at their feet.”

At this point I might write Corandry closing the Infyrna Spindle in Gidastern myself, just for the closure and call it Spine of Steel

Took out Realm Breaker and Fate Breaker from the library, prepare for Spine of Steel (Corandry close the Spindle of Infyrna) and some The Gaze of the Lion updates (Taristan POVs)

just went on victoria’s tumblr and saw that the acronym for RB2 is BB and i think i figured out the title...”brealm breaker” (so sorry for this absolutely atrocious joke)

I applaud your dad joke and respond with a sensible chuckle 🤭 I've been cleaning my apartment and thinking what it might be. I think the second one is "Bringer" I'm probably wrong but I think it sounds rights.

Other options: Baby Boom (Eristan committing to popping out heirs 😏) Belligerent Ballad (Domasa's love story, recited by a bard, includes all their best 'trying to kill each other' tales, and a final 'but ended up kissing instead' poem) Boring Besties (self-explanatory Corandry) Blessed Bisexuals (All the bi elite of Allward chilling and being amazing in general Ridha, Erida, etc)
