I finished Silverburn!! I remember reading the first Nevermoor book when I was like? 14-16? Now I’m 20 and they’re still very good. I made fan art the first time as well, I guess NM just makes me want to draw ginger men and their definitely-not-angel-exes. (The first drawing’s made like a fake tabloid ofc). Also please Jessica Townsend pleaaaase give Morrigan short hair /j.

I love Jupiter North so much. No relation haha, me having the name Jupiter in Arabic isn’t to do with him, but what a nice thing.

12 and a half hours of my life, i do not regret it

I’m rereading Nevermoor, and I’ve been struck by the symbolism of the chandelier in the Deucalion.

Jupiter’s favourite thing.

At the very start, the chandelier is a pink sailing ship, grand and gorgeous. Sailing ships, noted as vessels used in the age of exploration, symbolising adventure and discovery. Jupiter is an esteemed member of the League of Explorers, and clearly deeply enjoys his adventures. He retells stories and it seemed that he was constantly somewhere exploring. It was his passion, and his top priority. His main project. His favourite thing, for all to see, proudly displayed in the Deucalion.

On the day after Morrigan’s arrival, the chandelier crashes to the floor. Jupiter’s usual pattern has been disrupted, his priorities compromised. Morrigan frets that she’s ruined his favourite thing, admitting so to Mr Jones/Squall.

Upon rescuing Morrigan, Jupiter has made a change in his own life. His love for exploring is still there, but is no longer his favourite thing.

Just by harbouring Morrigan, Jupiter puts everything at risk. His reputation, the Deucalion herself, and notably, his membership in many clubs and organisations, including the League of Explorers.

Growing over the course of the Trials is his new priority: Morrigan. Caring for Morrigan, learning her needs and making sure she’s safe in Nevermoor. His ability to look after her and guide her grows alongside the new chandelier, just as she gradually grows to trust him. He risks his own reputation and passion for exploring to make sure she doesn’t fall into the wrong hands, and to make sure she thrives somewhere she can belong to.

The new chandelier is in the shape of a crow. Jupiter says he likes it even better than the ship. The chandelier symbolises how Jupiter has decided to make room for Morrigan in his life, in his own home, in his heart. He prioritises her over even his greatest passion.

Tl;dr Jupiter cares for her so much im sobbing

p.s i haven’t read silverborne yet, if you see this please don’t spoil it for me 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

jessica townsend, the queen of addressing genuine issues in a way that is manageable for children to grasp and yet not at all watered down

love being insane about a series made for children with virtually no fandom
