Did the oh hellos write "I am not a fool entire, no, I know what is coming, you'll bury me beneath the tree I climbed when I was a child, oh I know I shouldn't love you, I know I shouldn't love you but I do" specifically about realm of the elderlings or-

another thing that chade did that pisses me off: when he told fitz he has no ambition and too much caution! it's almost as if he was kept as a stablehand for years, was dressed beneath his station, was reminded repeatedly that he's a bastard and that his uncle can try and kill him all he wants and get away with it, lived with his head down so no one will pay too much attention to chivalry's bastard, was made into a literal tool so it wouldn't cross his mind for a second that he could be the next king, and the few times he did act according to his own will he was accused of usurpring the throne and got tortured to death. gee, chade, how dare your child assassin have too much caution!

The whole idea about the symbolic importance of names in The Six Duchies will always be my favourite part about the book series. In a land where there is a tradition to give your kid names that would "shape their lives and beings", and then Fitz legit just doesn't have much of a name for his first couple of years, and when he is informed that he has one it's after a father he has never met, or "my boy" from a mentor who loves him but also sees him as an extension of himself, or an alias used in secret letters from his parental figures, or literally "Fitz" as in "son/bastard" by the man who saw him as a reflection of his father, or "new boy" by a girl who represents a life (to him) that he's always desired but never felt like he fit into, or the name he took upon himself to try move on from his deeply traumatic experiences?

The experiences that made him define his sense of self to how valuable he is to those around him? That makes him believe he does not deserve to be loved...or cannot be loved...simply for being him? For himself?

and his soulmate comes from a place where you give your name to someone you love? And their name means "dearly loved"? Yeah, no. Wrap it up. We're done.

not being able to stand the cold was a fanfic ass trait for Robin hobb to give the Fool. Oh noooo they can’t survive a cold night sleeping alone I Guess the wolf man they fancy will just HAVE to snuggle up with them for warmth. Convenient for all.

Conservative beauty standards are back with a vengeance which means it's especially important to go out this summer with bellies out and bodies unshaved. Also be unapologetically disabled with mobility aids and wearable medical devices and stim toys and ear defenders and all that stuff. You need it. People need to see it. Everyone needs to be reminded that life is unquestioningly more enjoyable when you're not living inside an arbitrary set of rules created by people who are offended by all the wrong things.

[wormsinthecheese]

me, starting rote: I can't wait to read this epic fantasy saga about a political assassin

me, after reading rote: so it was a fucking lie. oh my god I loved reading the 203093848493 pages of childhood trauma, parenting issues, adoptions of every kid ever met and gay allegations

the golden fool

fucking sickening that fitz phrases it this way because. when he is hurt or tired or scared. the place that he seeks for comfort, for warmth, for safety and peace - is always the fool's bed.

assassin's quest
