Random courtesan: Grima Mog how did you earn the Queens Favor Grima: Well It started when someone offered her rent money to duel me in a back alley warehouse in the mortal world Courtesan confused and Horrified: And you won? Grima: No she beat my ass with a Pipe. Courtesan: Oh...Oh. So...I should let the Queen...Beat me with a pipe? Grima Glowering: You haven't earned that honor
my favorite kind of fairy like so true so metal

Cardan when exiling Jude:
Cardan spiraling after exiling Jude:
That romance subplot of The Darkest Part of the Forest 😍 they’re just edaters but for faeries: communicating via curse or something
Madoc pulling up to Eva and Justin’s house to finish the job (those two rly fucked madoc over lmaoo-Justin for stealing his girl in the most mischievous way possible- AND THEN BRAGGING ABT IT.. then Eva burning his house down and faking her death+ keeping his daughter from him: Justin x eva morally grey couple goals)
Grima mog in the mortal world if she were ever caught tryna eat the local fae (my elderly icon gotta defend herself)
Corny making sure Kaye’s thriving business stays afloat while she’s away living w her sexy ass husboyfriend: lord roiben 😍 (i LOVE corny he’s a top 10 tfota character for me- love my chronically online king)
tried and failed to come up w a caption for this one but does it truly need it?
What Justin and Eva would’ve seen in their notifs if Madoc had pulled up 15 years later when ring cameras had been invented (could’ve prevented a tragedy- or at the very least prevented Jude from living w the trauma that she opened the front door for the serial murderer 🥀wish this was mentioned ngl)
should’ve been a mom destroyer too 😍 #justiceforval #readthemodernfaerietales
Cardan after he let Lord Roiben (who has a MASSIVE court and army btw) get attacked to save the love of his life- leading to Kaye (the love of ROIBENS life) getting hurt (bro would raise hell for his girl and is known for being so ruthless he killed his ex lover) this one is not exactly lore accurate (cardan our nonchalant king) but it was funny to me
masterlist for more: here!
on my twk reread and i allllwayyys slump right when jurdans abt to get freaky 😔 but madoc this reread making me sooo mad can’t wait for his long deserved exile
anyway luv u byesies- lmk how u feel abt me including more of holly blacks other characters from tfota (which ones would u like to see more of? Or just main tcp cast?)
Did I ever tell how much I respect Grima mog?
Jude is actually so psychotic because wdym she beat Grima Mog (a literal Redcap probably twice her size who's heavily skilled in fighting and whose very nature is to violently kill on instinct) in a one-on-one duel???
I'm the only one that my favorite "the folk of the air" character is Grima Mog..?😔
I always wondered who had hired Bryern to take care of Grima Mog - low-key insulted on Grima's behalf.
We know Cardan got word of the meeting. I assumed maybe he heard it from spies but it didn't make sense they would be staging an encounter. It is possible Cardan meant someone from the Living Council, since calling the spies councilors does sound overcomplicated when he was alone with Jude.
A couple guesses on the hirer:
- a member of the Living Council who believed Jude's claim before her exile or that Cardan would bring her back at some point (Randalin, most likely) and decided to throw Grima her way in hopes she got herself killed. This makes sense because they would have means to find Jude's employer. And they could tell Cardan about it easily enough.
- Asha, who knew for sure Jude was High Queen and wanted Cardan to get over her or something. I don't know if she had how to find the phoka, but she did have ways to intercepted the high king's correspondence - maybe she was working with someone in the living council and then she would have motive and means to relay the message to Cardan.
If you have the answer or theories let me know, I'd love to read your thoughts.
