peak cottagecore is trying to do your spring cleaning but being unable to get rid of anything because you attach an emotional significance to every object you’ve ever owned

sorry to break it to you, but if you sobbed uncontrollably at wymack’s speech before the last game against edgar allan, specifically the “fight like you don’t know how to die quietly” line, you’re traumatized as fuck and i’m sending you so much love

y’all can we just appreciate that neil only takes out his coloured contacts for andrew? i know nicky is the one who asks him to the first time, but neil actually takes them out because andrew wants him to. the symbolism!! even before neil trusted or liked andrew, he was the only one neil was willing to be even semi honest with. andrew’s the only person who could make neil feel transparent, and even if it wasn’t always consensual on neil’s part, he needed someone to see him. it’s the only reason he survived. god, i love them!!

when he’s a five foot psychopath goalie with blonde hair who pulls a knife on his cousin for flirting with you >>>>>>>

don’t you think it’s kind of funny how red white and royal blue opens with that line “rule number one: don’t get caught” (and it’s heavily implied alex has seen it and knows it’s there) and then all he proceeds to do is get caught with henry by literally everyone (nora, june, zahra, richards, the entire world???)

[anyythingforourmoony]

y’all i think i just realized something?

in hamilton during ‘take a break’ eliza sings the line “run away with us for the summer... there’s a lake i know... we can go when the night gets dark” and we all know that entire song just bleeds desperation and one-sided, unrequited love.

now, stay with me, alex (our favourite political bi mastermind who is NAMED AFTER ALEXANDER HAMILTON), tells henry he loves him for the first time IN A LAKE DURING SUMMER.

casey mcqustion was warning us from the beginning that henry wasn’t going to say it back there and that breaks my entire heart, but also the symbolism in the fact that they did run away to the lake together and they did fall in love? ugh my little english major heart can’t handle this

okay i just finished realm breaker and i need to talk about it, so here are my random opinions about the book (SPOILERS TO FOLLOW)

a). i don’t know if i picked up on some subtle chemistry or if my psychopath brain just invented it, but i kind of thought taristan and ronin were together? i have to admit, eristan is pretty hot, but i totally assumed taristan and the wizard were a couple until the whole thing with erida began.

b). i love andry trelland with my entire heart and soul. he’s so sweet??? the amount of love and loyalty he has for the people he cares about is heart warming and i love his budding relationship with corayne. (also, the thing with the tea pot. fucking adorable)

c). enemies to lovers with witty banter between an assassin and an honourable immortal? yes please. domacridhan and sorasa have so much chemistry and i live for their interactions.

d). speaking of love interests for sorasa, sigil and her would also make such an incredible couple?? don’t ask me why, but i have a feeling dom is going to die in a future realm breaker book, which is going to break my heart in two, but it could open a doorway for sorasa and sigil (which could potentially stitch my broken heart back together)

e). valtik is a boss ass bitch. she’s so sick, i hope we get to see more of how powerful she is in the next book.

f). corayne is probably the first relatable ya protagonist i have ever read about. she’s a child whose still learning her place in the world and who she is, which is something i can totally relate to as a seventeen year old myself. she’s scared and young and naive, but she’s still fiercely protective and strong. she embodies the idea that fear and strength are free to coexist; it doesn’t matter how scared you are, as long as you continue to move forward. also, i really love how the older characters like sorasa see her as a teenager and do everything they can to take the burden of saving the realm off her shoulders, even though it’s hers to bear. found family trope who?

g). I’M IN LOVE WITH SIGIL AND ANDRY. i seriously can’t get over them. they’re perfect and i cannot wait for the next book. victoria aveyard, you did it again. i’m in awe of your talent.

my sister while reading realm breaker: “you know, i don’t condone violence against children, but if ridha had curb stomped that sexist little stable boy motherfucker i would have 100% supported her decision”

[anyythingforourmoony]

y’all i was just talking to my sister about baby names and i found out that if she has a son she’s going to name him aleksander. as in, aleksander morozova, the darkling from s&b. now, this wouldn’t really be an issue, except for the fact that if i have a son i’m going to name him maven, after maven calore from red queen.

BOTH OF OUR CHILDREN ARE GOING TO BE NAMED AFTER PSYCHOPATHS WITH COOL POWERS WHO MURDER PEOPLE y’all i can’t

me, reading soc & ck for the first time at twelve years old and feeling an intense emotional connection to wylan: huh it’s probably just because he’s intelligent and quiet like i am

me, re reading the duology at seventeen: bitch you should’ve known you were gay

[anyythingforourmoony]

my sister exclusively refers to the darkling as ‘the bastard’ and i thought at first it was just because she didn’t like him but no, when she first read shadow and bone she misread his name as ‘the bastard’ so for like half the book she thought this all-powerful entity who manipulates shadow and controls the second army was affectionately nicknamed ‘the bastard’

edit: imagine my surprise when we sat down to watch the show together and upon seeing ben barnes she excitedly exclaimed “look! it’s the bastard!”

an incomplete list of song lyrics that feel like alex falling in love with henry:

“so let’s set the world on fire, we can burn brighter than the sun” (we are young by tonight)

“when you feel my heat, look into my eyes, it’s where my demons hide” (this is my kingdom come by demons running)

“the way you saved me, who could blame me when i just wanna make you smile” (you’re so classic by MKTO)

“we tried the world, good god it wasn’t for us” (jackie and wilson by hozier)

“i feel like a young john cusack, like making big mistakes” (brand new by ben rector)

“i don’t even need to change the world, i’ll make the moon shine just for you (someone to you by banner)

“everything is fine when your hand’s resting next to mine” (fire and the flood by vance joy)

“if you can test the water, might as well jump in, life’s what you make it, it’s yours for the taking” (life’s what you make it by graham colton)

[anyythingforourmoony]

i see your ‘enemies to lovers’ and raise you an oddly specific trope i am head over heels in love with, ‘two closeted twinks falling in love over email partly (mainly) due to the hilarious and witty subject lines’

[anyythingforourmoony]

so we all just collectively agree that the most unbelievable part of the shadow and bone show is that kaz couldn’t take two of pekka’s men huh?

(but no seriously book kaz would have never went down that quickly, we all know our boy can fight)

[anyythingforourmoony]

it’s almost criminal that no one has mentioned how in the last episode when mal and the darkling are fighting on the sands of the fold the darkling could have easily used the cut and just killed mal there but he instead decided to fight him hand to hand just so he could bitch slap this man from ravka to ketterdam

[anyythingforourmoony]

sooooo... kaz really just adopted mal huh? what a dad
