Some bookish artists got together for an April Fool's joke where everybody had to draw the 'Spiderman upside-down kiss' pose featuring their favourite book characters or OCs. I signed up for playful Kaye and long-suffering Roiben (but he loves it really, even though he's got a sticky nose now 🍭)

i reread the Modern Faerie Tales trilogy recently, i had forgotten how much i love it<3

“oh I’m too old for stuffed animals” skill issue. sorry you can’t appreciate little creatures made to hang out with you, I on the other hand am full of joyous whimsy and therefore vastly superior.

A drawing of wren that I made just now!! I sat up all night guys- its 6:30AM and I started around 1 AM. I needed to get this one out of my system✨🩵 this is her younger self taking care of her little fox plush 🦊🧸

My name is @quinndomania on instagram!🌸

Wren, my little darling💞

[faeriexalice]

can we talk about how, if Jude and Wren were to be against each other in a war, Wren would absolutely tear Jude to shreds. yes, Jude is powerful as the Queen of Elfhame, but Wren ripped Lady Nore apart with a single thought. she has the power of annihilation. who's to say she won't do it again?

[faeriexalice]

sorry, but am i the only one that's frustrated that the Holly Black fandom only focuses on Jude and Cardan in the Faerie books?

"i hated The Stolen Heir, because Jude and Cardan weren't in it :("

because it's not their story?? hello? there are other awesome characters with amazing backstories to explore.

I love Jude and Cardan just as much as the next person does, but c'mon, let's have a bit of common sense here.

The neurodivergent urge to do this

I made this picture in like 5 minutes on Ibispaint and it still haunts me to this day. Nothing else I will ever do will have the same reach.

Kaye Fierch

[faeriexalice]

Kaye, my beloved 💞

[yusukesmomjeans]

I need Holly Black to tell me EVERYTHING about Val, birth to death. I need to know more about Ruth and Ravus. Where IS Lolly? What happens between Luis and Corny Neil? I know you guys are all up to your ebows in Elfhame but for the love of all that is holy I need more modern faerie. Girl, give me Kaye's grocery list, Kate's split ends, I don't careeeee I am so bereft rn.

lol check my masterlist for the other ones bc linking them is too much work ok bye 🫶

[faeriexalice]

in the prologue of The Cruel Prince, it is mentioned that Madoc speaks with a strange accent. is this a fae accent? or is it, considering Holly references Scottish folklore in her work, the accent is Scottish. and all the Fae just have a Scottish accent. I think about this all the time.

"It's iron. Crafted by human hands. No faerie will ever be able to use it against you. Not even me."

Val and Ravus in VALIANT (Holly Black), my gateway to YA fantasy 🖤

[faeriexalice]

"Cardan's tail was so bad and Oak's hooves were even worse!"

they say, as though it isn't a fantasy book about fae.

[faeriexalice]

Jude officially passed the "would you love me if I was a worm" test Cardan tried on her.
