Welcome to the Young Royals archive!
What is the archive and how does it work:
This is THE masterpost. It links to various collection posts of analyses/meta, gifsets, edits, fic recs, cast/creators interviews and more. Alphabetically sorted, mostly. Each link in this post leads to a collection post with links to post by tumblers in the fandom. Impatient? Scroll right down to find the good stuff!
Collections are sorted into categories below to help you find posts
Some posts may be posted in more than one category
It will also have posts on how to tumblr
The archive is made to help new fans navigate the fandom
And help the rest of us (me defitiely) find That One Post
Tag posts you like with @youngroyalsarchive to have them added to the archive
"I don't like ___ about YR" posts will not be added. Posts with "___ is problematic because ___" are allowed
The collection posts are tagged #yr archive
This is a labour of love. I have CFS/ME and this is a side project to my other fandom activities. Updates happen when I have available spoons and it's fun.

"Anon from the flight" mood:
I made this archive after reading the fandom's reaction to @anonfromtheflight's confession. That's why this first listed link collection is dedicated to Anon from the flight and their infectious enthusiasm! 💜💜💜💜
