Meredith Darling🦢 and the Crow siblings 🐦⬛
thinking about the parallels between ivy forcing morrigan into "that frilly, itchy chiffon dress" for her wedding to corvus versus both morrigan and meredith being pressured one way or another into the peach puff pastry dress in silverborn

“I asked chatgpt/claude/gemini”
Well I asked meredith darling. she ratted me out to hilary d’boer who wrote about me in her next book.
Corvus Crow's type is canonically lively ambitious blondes was not on my Silverborn bingo
Daughter and Mother: Morrigan and Meredith
....holy shit i just realized
even though he goes into public as Mr. Jones, Ezra uses his real name for business in the Wintersea Republic
and even if Meredith didn't recognize Mr. Jones, she sure as shit would know that name
love love love how nevermoor doesn’t present motherhood in a way that is so common amongst other media (like fuckin harry potter). i mean there are good mothers and motherly characters in the series (catriona, miss cherry, brilliance), but they don’t loose their personalities just because they are in motherly roles (khmm nymphadora tonks).
nevermoor doesn’t glaze motherhood like after your child was born, your only purpose of being is to take care of them.
and the most important thing, we get a variety of mothers and mother figures. not just a bad-good spectrum of them, but character who actually have conflicts and dilemmas from being a mother (figure). (actually, can’t wait to know more about the relationship between brilliance and ezra, and especially how she felt after ezra had betrayed her). and it’s so refreshing to see that after tons of boring and bad representations.
and i just love meredith’s character. i was so afraid that townsend would make her another boring dead mother cliche (like lily potter), with little to no personality, just the ideal mom morrigan has never had. and thank god that she didn’t turn into that, i should’ve had more faith in the writer. she’s a character on her own, chaotic and morally ambiguous, and she’s a feral animal and i love love love that.
anyway, i just wanted to yap about meredith, silverborn was a dream come true
