Could you draw fitz and regal?

regal was really funny for meeting a six year old and immediately declaring him his arch nemesis. and then he spends the next three books smoking weed and randomly killing people

royal pain in the assassin

Royal Assassin should really just be called The Awful Terrible No-Good Sexual Escapades of FitzChivalry Farseer

Poor guy

Accidentally magically livestreams his first time to his uncle

Has his uncle accidentally magically livestream HIS sexual relations with his wife

Has a wolf companion who butts in during his first time

Said wolf companion literally controls him during sex while Fitz is knocked out cold

His gf compliments him for his sexual prowess only after Fitz was either influenced by Verity, or being controlled by Nighteyes, never when he's being himself lmao

And that too I will put in the dragon

My King and Queen of the Six Duchies

[i-8-ur-soul]

I made a dumb meme about Fitzchivalry and Verity, thank you very much.

[spectrum-color]

Do you ever think about how all of the major people in Fitz’s life represented different things to him? Like,

Beloved-true companionship with someone who can accept the parts of himself he usually prefers to keep hidden

Kettricken-his identity as a Farseer prince

Chade-his life in the shadows; being a bastard, a spy, and an assassin

Molly-normalcy; the life he would have led if he wasn’t a Farseer or the Catalyst

Nighteyes-living in the now and disregarding all of the complex circumstances of his life

Burrich-his Wit and all of the shame and fear that comes with it for him

Bee and Nettle-fatherhood and his various failings (though his storyline with Nettle is more about his relationship with Molly while with Bee it’s more about his relationship with Beloved)

Dutiful-the role he often plays as a hero and a mentor to the younger generation, even when he doesn’t want it

Starling-the depressed hermit who hides from the world and from himself (she always gets the worst of him)

Patience-what it’s like to have an actual caring parental figure

Verity-an idol; someone to serve and swear himself to

NEW ROTE VINES/TIKTOKS OUT BABES!!!

dividing ass quest into two parts partially because holy fuck do i need to process that second half lmao and also it would be much too long

[fitzandfooltrash]

I keep thinking about the three of them as brothers - Chivalry, Verity, Regal. I want to see them young I have so many questions. Did Verity always look up to Chivalry? Did he ever envy him? Was Regal always a brat? Did Chivalry love his younger brother nonetheless? Did he feel guilty for leaving the weight of the kingdom on Verity? Did he ever forgive himself? Were they ever boys together, not princes, just boys?

Chivalry, Verity & Regal’s ages

One thing that annoyed the hell out of me in rote is that we never get a clear cut answer about these character’s ages, but Hobb did tell us in a round about way.

So in chapter 6 of royal assassin we are told that:

“The two sons of Queen Constance and King Shrewd were Chivalry and Verity. Only two years separated their birth”

“Chivalry was the eldest, and the first to assume the title King-in-Waiting on his sixteenth birthday. He was almost immediately dispatched by his father to deal with a border dispute with the Chalced States.”

“At last, on Verity’s twentieth birthday, after six years of requesting monthly to be allowed to follow his brother, Shrewd reluctantly conceded to him.From then, until the day four years later when Chivalry abdicated and Verity assumed the title King-in-Waiting”

So Verity became King-in-waiting when he was 24, which would mean Chivalry was 26 at the time. That means he had Fitz when he was just 20 years old (since Fitz was 6 at the start of assassin’s apprentice, when chivalry abdicated).

And in chapter 5 of Royal Assassin Fitz remarks how him and Regal are less than 10 years apart.

“Less than a decade of years separated our ages. Only his skin separated me from his blood. ”

So that would make Regal 15 at most, at the start of Assassins Apprentice.

So Fitz’s age gap with them would be:

Chivalry- 20 years

Verity- 18 years

Regal- 10> Years

Honestly you should just give us a “who haunts the narrative more, Verity or Chivalry” poll and let everyone battle it out. I’d have propaganda to submit for both sides

everyone make your case in the notes 🫡

[itbelikethatsmetimes]

Can't believe that Fitz manages to get laid for the first time, and manages to not just mentally livestream it to his wolf but also to his UNCLE.

What description did they give you, Magali???
