DÉJÀ VU DÉJÀ VU DÉJÀ VU

Bree: I can’t let Nick know about Erebus’ connection to The Order. It’s too dangerous. So if he asks me, I’ll have to lie to him.

Also Bree:

I headcannon Selwyn is actually great with kids. Especially merlin ones. Like yeah they're all scared of him but he never actually does anything and eventually they see him for like...the big cat he is. He lets them color in his tattoos, do amazing (horrible) things to his hair and makeup. He's gotten in trouble multiple times for going too soft on them during training, even if he is strict enough on a human level. They all think he's super cool and scary when instructors use Selwyn as an example for training, but Selwyn can't actually bring himself to be mean to the kids themselves. He once was told to help this merlin kid, and the kid burst into tears when Selwyn approached. Selwyn just awkwardly let them cry and patted them on the back and waited for them to calm down. The other older merlins watch in awe and confusion as Selwyn, the rude, arrogant, obnoxious asshole successfully gentle parents a kid into learning. One time he was there during an argument between a merlin and human kid and he somehow got them to admit their wrongdoings while also apolozing. He sees himself in every merlin kid, and he sees Nick in every human one. He can't possibly be mean to them. It's very out of character for everyone except Nick, William and later Bree, who know why Selwyn is the way he is. Selwyn learned to be mean out of self defense, biting first means his enemy is wounded out the gate. But kids are never enemies. They are used and molded and taught to be enemies, but at the stage they're at, Selwyn doesn't have it in him to be a threat. He knows how fast kids must grow up in the order. He knows he doesn't not have to beat the lessons into him as other inductors do.

Can you tell the sickness going around is getting to me this was meant to be like a 3 sentence post.

[myrddine]

yall know that post that was like "character that is the sun in the sense that they burn too bright too fast and will one day destroy themselves" and "character that is the moon in the sense that they can only watch from a distance as their only source of light self destructs" haha...yeah...

@william-the-not-conqueror I have a very specific question about merlin biology I need you to answer me rn.

[viinas]

MAYBE I JUST WANTED TO DRAW BREE WITH A PRETTY DRESS AND A SWORD. AND WHAT ABOUT IT

[thejudeduarte]

Being part of a small fandom is liking every single post you see about it because on tumblr little to no people have actually read the books 😭

I'm totally not talking about powerless and legendborn

[chiaseedlingwithlove]

Nothing hits more than finishing a book and immediately opening tumblr to repost everything you’ve been avoiding

[amazingcreek]

Don't talk to me I'm thinking about Selwyn Kane's loneliness. About how he must've grown up thinking he was incapable of being loved. About how the Order called him the traitor, about how demons label him a blood traitor. He doesn't fit in the Order, nor does he fit outside it. Not human enough but not demon enough either. He doesn't quite fit with the rest of the Merlins, and he definitely doesn't fit in the human or demon box. He has lived his life as something "other". Lonely among the living and dead. An Outcast of all dimensions.

The shining moon, seen only because of the Sun, surrounded by stars.

A single being, alone in it's existence, cursed to witness but never experience others connections.
