i’m sick of people sleeping on paige and warden from the bone season so i’m going to convince you why they’re one of the greatest queer m/f ships i’ve ever read

did i mention they’re a queer m/f couple??? she’s demiace and he’s pan and their relationship revolves around her aceness

enemies to friends to lovers except they’re barely enemies at the beginning because he’s already taking care of her she just doesn’t realize it

slow burn bc they kiss in book one but they don’t officially get together until later in the series

star-crossed (species-crossed?) forbidden romance that they have to keep hidden

soulmates with a special magical bond and slightly telepathic communication

tiny snarky one who likes to run her mouth + big tall protective one who just stands menacingly in the background

he would do anything to get her back……..and she’d do the same for him

“i will always find you”

she’s jealous of people flirting with him but he doesn’t even notice because he’s watching her

he’s wearing an “i’m with stupid” shirt and she’s wearing an “i’m stupid” shirt

even though he doesn’t approve of some of her decisions, he adamantly insists that she’s allowed to make her own choices…and he’ll be there to support her through all of them

lots of angst because they value saving the world and recognize their duty to the revolution even though they’re clearly obsessed with each other

Type Maps for The Dark Mirror by Samantha Shannon 😻

These are very different, but from the same book! The White Poppies are from Paige's bleached dreamscape in Part 1 of the book. And Arcturus with the Cat he meets in Orvieto is from the bonus chapter Aubade.

“Why are you so obsessed with the bone season?”

[tbs-addict]

‘If you are willing to commit to me – if you grant me the privilege of your trust – then in return, I offer myself as your steadfast companion, who faces all things at your side. I will honour you in body and spirit. You will be my highest calling. Neither of us has a home, but as long as you want me, I will do all I can to be your harbour.’

The Dark Mirror, Samantha Shannon

A while ago there was a joke about warden saying everything sexily

So here is a list of things warden said, sexily in The Dark Mirror:

‘You should not be surprised by your strength. I never am.’ - chapter 17

‘Be safe, little dreamer.’ - chapter 18

‘Hm’ - basically every chapter he is in

‘I have never stopped wanting you, Paige Mahoney.’ - chapter 24

‘I owe you a duet.’ - chapter 24

‘Have mercy, Underqueen.’ - chapter 25

‘Paige.’ - chapter 25 (😏)

‘I remind you that I can do far more than look at you.’ - chapter 25, again. Are we surprised?
