shout out to howl because he found out there was a prophesy curse thing out to get him and he did NOT frantically try to stop it. like he was like "gee I'd better stay away from mermaids and not touch any mandrakes ig" but did he move to the center of a landlocked country to keep away from mermaids? NO. did he obsessively dye his hair non-white colors? NO he dyed it the normal amount. did he eliminate every mandrake root ever? NO.
my man said "maybe if I ignore the curse it will just go away. no point in stressing over what I can't control man. just gotta. chilllllll. [visibly shaking with anxiety]" and that worked pretty damn well for him. I mean yeah the curse did still fulfill itself and it did end with him going into cardiac arrest for a few minutes but his girlfriend got hot and beat the shit out of the chick who cursed him and they lived crazily ever after so who's winning? this is howl pendragon's guide to not letting a prophecy control your life
