Jude *holding an antique bottle*: Is this whiskey or perfume?

Cardan: *grabs and chugs the entire bottle*

Cardan:

Cardan: It's perfume.

Urgh so funnn

[xcruelprincessx]

Just a reminder that Jude was the first person ever to tell Cardan "I love you". And he was so shocked to hear those words, he didn't even believe her at first 😭

It's been far too long since I tagged @highqueen-judeduarte .

[highqueen-judeduarte]

It has been too long since I last replied, and for that, I suppose I owe you. But don’t expect me to grovel. That’s beneath me.

Ghost: Where’s Cardan?

Jude: What am I, his keeper?

Ghost:

Ghost: Aren't you?

[vino---delectable]

Cardan: "I could give you the world!"

Jude: "The fuck do I do with that."

[xcruelprincessx]

Jude: I killed your dear friend Valerian 😈 *tries to scare him*

Cardan: Oh, I wondered where he went...anyways wanna see my tail? 😏

[clarissaweasley-10]

Cardan: Jude, do you love me? Jude: We are literally married Cardan: But as friends or-

[highqueen-judeduarte]

Taryn: Why is there blood everywhere?

Jude: I may have aggressively poked someone with a knife.

Taryn: You stabbed someone?!

Jude: No, no. I aggressively poked someone with a knife.

[highqueen-judeduarte]

Jude: I know what you're up to. Cardan : Really? Because I barely know.

**********

Jude: I’d kill someone if you asked me to. Cardan : I’m pretty sure you’d kill someone even if I didn’t ask you to.

**********

Jude: I’m the sexiest bitch in this therapy waiting room.

“Of course I want to be like them. They're beautiful as blades forged in some divine fire. They will live forever. Valerian's hair shines like polished gold. Nicasia's limbs are long and perfectly shaped, her mouth the pink of coral, her hair the colour of the deepest, coldest part of the sea. Fox-eyed Locke, standing silently behind Valerian, his expression schooled to careful indifference, has a chin as pointed as the tips of his ears. And Cardan is even more beautiful than the rest, with black hair as iridescent as a raven's wing and cheekbones sharp enough to cut out a girl's heart. I hate him more than all the others. I hate him so much that sometimes when I look at him, I can hardly breathe.”

Cardan: Sometimes I wish I could just delete people out of my life.

Jude: You can. It’s called murder.

Cardan:

Taryn: Well she’s not wrong.

I'm gonna be very nitpicky for a second but there is something I notice in Jude fanart that always annoys me

(Not any hate towards artist who done this, your work is still great and I could never make something so beautiful myself so kudos to you all)

But people always forget that Jude is missing her fingertip

Like it's one of the only noticeable differences between Taryn and Jude lookwise is that Jude is missing her ring finger, it's brought up multiple times in the books but it's rarely ever represented in fanart of her.

I have seen maybe 4 fanarts where she is actually missing her fingertip.

Anyway I know it doesn't really matter and that I'm being nitpicky but it always bothers me when I see her having ten full fingers

[highqueen-judeduarte]

People do tend to forget that small trauma I experienced
