Emira: So I’ve put together this selection of potential wives and husbands for you. All from reputable families of course. They would obviously have diplomatic roles in the palace, which would mean you would still have plenty of time to protect Rhy…

Kell:

Emira, handing him the stack of papers: …a wedding within the year would be best, so could you let me know your decision by tomorrow morning? That should give you plenty of time to evaluate.

Kell:

*clattering of metal and swearing coming from outside, before Lila wanders in, dressed in men’s clothes, grinning at Kell, covered in blood and holding six knives*

Kell, pointing: I want that one.

Emira, looking traumatised, whispering: What is it?

Kell, with ultimate heart-eyes: It’s a Lila.

*lila grins and waves then flips off Emira*

to kick off posting again, I'll be starting with my usual bullshit: way too many sketches of nathan drake

I realized something when I reread A Life Erased. That Kell's mother as we've "seen" her in the short story, somehow is hinted at in bits and pieces in Lila. It's like Lila was giving hints about Kell's mother all along and his past before he was given up.

His mom gave him a knife with his real initials on it. Lila is fond of knives, and even though Lila is not her birth name, the name she tells Kell to call her after they introduce each other starts with L, just like his real surname. Those two initials on the knife make me think about the initials lovers carve on tree trunks. I've already said multiple times that knives are symbolic of their relationship, and this object is also symbolic of Kell's identity intertwining with Lila's and viceversa.

His mom was a fire magician. The first magic Lila tries to call on is fire. His mom and dad likely did illegal things like thieving and traveled on ships, because the text specifies her arms are tanned. Kell's mom has fair skin and red hair just like him, so I assume she must've been a lot under the sun to be described as tanned. Lila used to be a thief, and now she's the captain of a ship. Moreover, one of the ships Lila raids in AGOS is called the Copper Thief. Who has copper hair? Kell, but also his mom.

Perhaps we will see Kell's parents again in future tftop books.

Riddler: Of course we lost, Selina! Your superpower is having too many cats! Stupid ass ability

Catwoman: Shut up, Edward, we lost because YOUR superpower is being the most annoying person in the room at all times.

Please excuse me if the background is too simple, I just simply refuse to draw a proper background :p

Good morning, everyone, and welcome to another instalment of the Fandom project! This time, we are once again discussing books, this time, young adult books. Check out previous posts in this series here.

Once again, the list is quite long, so I will just mention the wiki and not go into deeper details about what each one needs help with. If I did that, the post would be too long, and no one would have time for it.

As I've mentioned in previous posts, if you can create & edit a Tumblr post, you can edit articles on a wiki. Here, you can find an easy step-by-step guide on how to get started with contributing, but you can also message me & I will help guide you through any question marks.

Like I’m sorry I don’t know how to tell you this but Percy Jackson is a Disney show. If you think this is bad you should really try and rewatch Sonny With a Chance, Lizzie McGuire and Girl Meets World to gain some perspective cause I swear some of y’all think this is a Marvel Studios’ show and it IS NOT!

Book recommandations needed!

So ... I reread some of my favorite fantasy series and now I’m desperated for new ones. But no book I picked up convinced me so far. They just don’t have the right vibe, if you know what I mean. So I need some help.

My favorite books are:

- The Riyria-Chronicles and The Riyria-Revelations from Michael J. Sullivan

- Shades of magic series by V.E. Schwab

- The Nightrunner series by Lynn Flewelling

- Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo

- Beautiful Monsters series by Jex Lane

Things I rly enjoy in a story:

- thiefs! love a good heist.

- pirates! (who can say ‘no’ to swashbuckling?)

- good worldbuilding (and good magic system)

- deep, deep friendships

- morally grey characters and/or a good villain

- assassins

Bonus points for:

- queer characters

- NO mary sue

- victorian london

- whump!

- romance is okay, but it shouldn’t be the main plot

- a grumpy, clever, son of a bitch (like Royce Melborne, Kaz Brekker, Holland Vosijk, Blackbeard, Loki)

I would appreciate some recommandations. Thank you in advance :)!
