A little about me since I am trying to be more active and engaging:

Hi!

Name's Teagan *not my real name*

In my 30s

She/Her pronouns

Pansexual

Capricorn

Probably way to old for all this fangirling I do but hey, who's it hurting? Reading was always one of my favorite things to do growing up. It's a good escape from dealing with real life. Deaf since, well, as long as I can remember. Reading let me escape and actually feel like I belonged. Harry Potter was my first series that I fell in love with. Followed quickly with numerous other stories I can not even remember the name of. During high-school I found Vampire Academy, so you could say I always leaned towards the fantasy side of literature. High school was also the time my hearing took its quickest dive and eventually led to me receiving a cochlear implant on my left side. With the rise of streaming networks and the internet becoming more and more easy to access and understand, I kind of fell away from reading throughout my 20s. Also, I fell away from doing things I enjoy, such as writing (not very well) and role-playing (not sure if anyone remembers the days of chatzy).

Recently I started making an effort to read again, even if it was rereading stuff from my younger years that make me happy. I was greatful to receive a kindle for my birthday this year and with it came the 3 month long subscription of Kindle Unlimited. Scrolling through it I discovered Fourth Wing, which has been on my to read list for the past couple of years. Just never found the time or energy to give it a try. So I figured, why not? Needless to say the rest was history and I was instantly hooked managing to read all 3 within a week and a half. Now I'm rereading it and falling even more in love with the characters and lore.

So welcome to my little corner of the continent, pull up a chair, and buckle up. I'm glad you're here 😊 . My inbox is always open for questions, conversations, or anything. Outside of Tumblr, you can add me on Discord at hearingisdecieving, though I'm still figuring discord out so just send me a request and a message and I'll get to you asap!

“Stop keeping shit to yourself,” he demands. “I don’t want to have this fight again. The four of us are stronger together than we are apart. Don’t fuck with that, even for Riorson. If you’re too afraid to tell Rhi, Sawyer or me about something you’re doing because you know we’re going to lose our shit, then either you shouldn’t be doing it or you deserve to have shit lost on you.” “Noted.” I sigh. “I miss them.” “Me too.” He slings his arm around my shoulders. “Rhi gives better lectures.” “You did pretty well.”

"Sawyer! Look at you!" Ridoc runs forward, his arms up in victory. Sliseag swings his head and snaps his teeth shut a few feet in front of Ridoc. "Look at you from a distance!" Ridoc retreats, his arms still held high.

"I love you. You could throw my entire world into upheaval, and I would still love you. You could keep secrets, run a revolution, frustrate the shit out of me, probably ruin me, and I will still love you. I can't make it stop. I don't want to. You're my gravity. Nothing in this world works without you."

"Yes, love, I'm jealous. I'm jealous of the armor that holds you when I can't, the sheets on your bed that caress your skin every night, and the blades that feel your hands."

~~ Xaden Riorson

"You get one chance to form your own squad, and you choose your ex, your current lover, the quadrant’s resident smart-ass, two people who have tried to kill you in the past year — one over said current lover — and whatever Dain is? These are your choices for the most important mission any rider could possibly undertake?” ~~Mira Sorrengail ~~

The fact that Xaden would rather have Violet's power out of control during sex with the very possibility of accidentally setting his home on fire rather than abstaining says a lot about the man and his priorities.

"Are we telling dick jokes now? Because my entire life has led up to this very moment." ~~ Ridoc Gamlyn ~~

[its-been-my-honor]

"Oh, and just so we’re clear, that strike up there wasn’t you know. Us. I mean, it was us because I pissed her off, but it wasn’t us…us, if you know what I’m saying.” ~~ Ridoc Gamlyn ~~

"I really fucking hope you're right about this. It would be unfortunate to make it all three years and then die on graduation day."

My favorite thing that people routinely forget about Sawyer is how fucking SNARKY he is. Bro was scoring zingers on Luca and Tynan for the first third of FW. He argues with Sliseag and BARES HIS TEETH right back at his dragon when they disagree. The mouth on that man. I love him so much 😭

[its-been-my-honor]

“You have to fight, Vi. You can hate me all you want when you wake up. You can scream, hit, throw your fucking daggers at me for all I care, but you have to live. You can't make me fall for you and then die. None of this is worth it without you.” ~~ Xaden Riorson ~~

[evilovesyou]

It breaks my heart to think Liam Mairi never got to see Violet in Aretia, never saw how much she loves Tyrrendor. How she has found herself there, and how she protects their home as its duchess.

He never got to walk the streets with his squad mates, never got to show off his obviously superior skills with runes, never got to embarrass Sloane in front of her peers… He never heard Ridoc say he wants to go home to Aretia. He is truly this war’s greatest cruelty, Dunne’s most precious sacrifice. 😭

Ridoc, Sawyer, and Bodhi: *Playing go fish waiting for the others on poker night*

Xaden, Garrick, and Dain: *Open door, slam it shut, and press it shut* BARRICADE IT!

Bodhi: Oh don't tell me...

Dain: IT'S ALL THREE!

Sawyer: FUCKING HELL!

Ridoc: ... THEY'RE IN HERE, WE'LL SEND THEM OUT IN EXCHANGE FOR BEING SPARED!

Violet, Imogen, and Sloane: DEAL!

X, G, & D: NOOOOOOO! *Run out and all are clotheslined by angry wives, which is rather amusing in Violet's case*

[vannigirly]

Ridoc: Vi! I've got another pickup line

Violet (amused): can't wait!

Ridoc: 'Are you a shadow wielder? Cause I can't see anyone else but you'

Xaden (pauses, raises an eyebrow): .. Fine. That one was less awful.

Ridoc (shocked): Wait. Did you actually like it?!

Xaden: I didn't say that!

Ridoc: I'm writing more. Maybe a whole book -

Violet: Oh no.

Xaden: What have I done.

[its-been-my-honor]

Die For You by Callum Scott is giving me hella Xaden to Violet vibes.
