Official Kotlc Ship Tier Ranking!

Do your own here

No thoughts. Just Them

Fitz and Keefe - in love with Sophie? Nah. In love with each other. One of my favorite dynamics tbh

Sophie and Biana - an old favorite, my first queer ship that i kept. Absolutely adorable. I thought you liked my brother? Nope? <3

Sophie and Stina - should be my personality. Hekster is the best ship actually

Marella and Linh - fire water dynamic? The best. Powers you’re afraid of? “Additional training”? Mwah

Marella and Biana - they dated precanon no one can convince me otherwise

Sophie, Keefe, and Fitz - love triangle solved. Sophie has two hands. They are in love your honor

Sophie and Glimmer - I have a fic about this. It worked it’s way into my heart

Tiergan and Prentice - I thank @gay-otlc for this one. <2

I am your average enjoyer

Grady and Edaline - two words. Domestic fluff. (Also angst)

Maruca and Biana - I saw this ship as little miss perfect and was never normal again

Quinlin and Alden - and they were cognates

Cyrah, Prentice, and Tiergan - honestly a flex by Wylie to have three parents

Della and Livvy - qualden and dellivvy is mlm wlw solidarity

Stina, Maruca, Marella, and Linh - four horse girls of the apocalypse is iconic tbh

I could be intrigued

Keefe and Dex - I almost wrote something for this. It has to be done well or I don’t like it though

Fitz and Dex - Fitz sees it as friends to lovers Dex sees it as enemies to lovers and they are in love. It’s great.

Sophie and Keefe - I see the appeal, and I could be convinced it’s just.., meh

Fitz, Keefe, and Dex - interesting in theory. They all take dex’s last name

Maruca and Stina - nothing wrong with it, would love to draw it.

Marella and Stina - I would call them friends but I wrote about it and now it’s stuck in my head. Redheks for life

Tiergan and Alden - exes 100%

Cyrah and Prentice - the angst potential

Keefe and Tam - I dunno. I can appreciate it but it doesn’t hit the spot.

Fintan and Bronte - not my cup of tea but the dynamic tho. Never being able to be together, and being feared, lovers to enemies.

Kenric and Oralie - adorable. Wish we could see more

Fintan and Dimitar - an interesting ship. That’s all I’ll say.

Tam and Fitz - heheh titz

Linh and Glimmer - linh is salty because of glimmer taking her brother? No. She’s in love with glimmer and is jealous

Better off friends

Sophie and Fitz - I have an essay on this I promise. They really are ough

Dex and Linh - guys. Guys come one. They are friends

Bo and Ro - I have 0 feelings toward this and I want it to stay that way.

Marella and Tam - this feels like jamming two Barbie dolls together but worse.

Della and Alden - I would get front row seats to their divorce

Sophie and Linh - I don’t see it. Interesting in theory, in execution they should be friends.

Sophie and Tam - I am manifesting their friendship in stellarlune

Marella and Keefe - they are gay in opposite directions trust me Shannon said so

Why tho? You did this for what?

Sophie and Dex - one word. Cousins.

Keefe and Biana - this feels like a crime

Tam and Biana - this has been done well once, otherwise it just feels pointless

Marella and Jensi - like a two year old mixing cake and ketchup

Tam and Glimmer - this will happen and it makes my blood boil

I will fight these shippers in a dennys parking lot

Fitz and Linh - I don’t know why but this will be the death of me

Wylie and Linh - *singing* wylie is an adult. Wylie is an adult.

Stina and Fitz - I have seen this once and I immediately realized this person hated both of them.

Wait okay so. Some dots I just connected (you didn't connect shit) (i connected them)

In the Telepathy Class Scene, Tiergan thinks that there's a chance having a cognate bond with Prentice would have made the whole mind break thing significantly easier to fix.

In Exile, when Alden's mind breaks, Sophie suggests they see if Quinlin can help and Tiergan rejects this idea.

Before Stellarlune, I figured this was just because Tiergan didn't feel like dealing with all the Qualden drama, which was fair.

However, given Stellarlune, we know Tiergan thought a cognate bond might be able to help a broken mind, and presumably he also knew that Quinlin and Alden were cognates.

So he suspected Quinlin might be able to help Alden but still rejected the idea of asking Quinlin for help. So he didn't actually want to help Alden all that much.

I can't say I blame him tbh

#he deserved to be a bit of an asshole to alden. as a treat #it's his gay given right #also alden got healed eventually in the same book so whatever! it turned out fine!#tiergan has never done anything wrong in his life #stellarlune spoilers #'i know how i could help you but i won't try that. bitch' 10/10 go off king

Sil’s Unlocked Experience That No One Asked For

So. This got long. Oops. I’m chalking it up to Sil’s Poor Planning When She Types As She Reads.

(Yeah, this is gonna be purely spoilers. Spoilers only. Spoilers galore. Literal quotes from the book included. You have been warned, thoroughly. If you click the read more and have the audacity to get mad at me for spoiling Unlocked for you, I will merely laugh.)

Anyways. Here is a post ten times longer than you needed it to be. I had ~Thoughts~.

FIRST THINGS FIRST, YALL.

SIR. ELWIN. HESLEGE. THE MAN FINALLY HAS A SURNAME

I would lay down my life for Elwin Heslege and here are some reasons why:

“Grow strong, new little Wanderling. You hold some very precious DNA” the only Sophie’s third father I truly care about, tbh

“In the category of Proof That Things Keep Getting Weirder Around Here” Sir Elwin Heslege how does it feel to know you invented comedy also would you please accept my hand in marriage

In an official health record for Sophie, he notes “I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHAT’S GOING ON!!” verbatim, in all caps, two exclamation points and everything.....Sir. Valid. I have been there, my dude.

The man would lay down his own life for Sophie Foster and I cannot give him any higher praise than that

Anyways beyond my love for Sir Elwin Heslege (!!!! Still pumped about the surname reveal!!)

Maruca! Chebota! She’s got a surname too!! Finally!!!

Totally forgot that Biana being a third child would have been scandalous if she hadn’t been a Vacker—must be nice being practically elven royalty lol

“A Crush, A Kiss, and Crushing Heartache” lmao rest in pieces Dexter Alvin

I Will Not Forgive Keefe For Redacting His Middle Name From His Registry Records And That Is A Promise (Keefe Cassius Sencen seems more and more likely every day)

Keefe Sencen has literally forty pages of detention records and I’m not surprised but also I definitely laughed

The chaotic descent into madness witnessed in Dame Alina’s principal comments on Keefe’s detention record as time continued on....chef’s kiss

Tam Dai Song and Linh Hai Song....make it make sense, Shannon

Was an entire section speculating on wyl*nh really necessary in Linh’s registry record, Shannon 🙃 was it 🙃

Wylie! Zoran! Endal!

(My phone autocorrected Endal to “end all” and I was like “haha............hang on a second I need to get Shannon on the phONE—”)

Tiergan!! Alenefar!!!

GRADY AND EDALINE SUGGESTED AS WYLIES GUARDIANS I WILL CRY ABOUT THIS FOREVER CAN YOU IMAGINE? I AM ALREADY THINKING OF THE HEADCANON

“Prentice’s close friend (Sir Tiergan Alenefar)” bruh.......bruh.

Stina Destry Heks (also. the way I giggled when “Stina” autocorrected to “stone” at first)

“In a more recent investigation, one report did suggest that the real reason Timkin was able to return to Foxfire...was because he [REDACTED]. And if that’s true, then perhaps [REDACTED]” DO NOT PLAY THESE GAMES WITH ME, SHANNON.

Marella Adene Redek of Fluttermont is registered for the match despite being a pyrokinetic and while given her flirtiness I’m not surprised can you hear me screaming about it anyways

“Anyone directly related to any of the registered pyrokinetics was labeled as a bad match to halt the spread of their genetics, and the ability detecting session at Foxfire now specifically forbids any exercises that might make a prodigy detect heat”—I love love love this as a plot point because it is so unbearably shitty and unfair and I love seeing how cleverly Shannon has built a world that elves think is perfect but it clearly isn’t and I cannot wait to see Sophie demolish and dismantle the entire matchmaking system to get justice for her friend anyways I digress I will get off my soapbox now

Words do not describe the frustration I felt at reading “Brant [LAST NAME REDACTED FOR SECURITY]”. I will eat your doorknobs, Shannon. Do not test me on this

“While the crowd’s initial reaction [to Marella’s reveal as a pyrokinetic at the Celestial Festival] was shock (the collective gasp was loud enough to make many ears ring)” MARELLA SWEETIE YOU ARE A QUEEN TURNING HEADS WE LOVE THIS FOR YOU

I would lay down my life for sparkly blue-green stuffed kelpie Sir Splashyhugs, the first reported emotional support stuffed animal

(Team Give The Whole Squad Stuffed Animals Keeps Winning And Winning, I Tell You)

GRADY. HOWELL. RUEWEN. I AM GOING TO LOSE MY MIND

👀 Edaline Ruewen? You had an assignment given to you by the Council? Care to spill, sis?? Hello???

YALL. I have THEORIES. The Ruewens barely needed any convincing to take Sophie? There was a “brief pause, an exchanged look” between Alden and Grady before Grady agreed? BRUH. You cannot convince me Alden didn’t say something to him telepathically. And my current working theory absolutely has something to do with Jolie.

EDALINE! KELIA! RUEWEN!

“Former caretaker of Brant [REDACTED]” !!! Brant!!! Where are your parents!!!! Why is your name redacted!!!!! I will get my answers or die trying!!!!!!

“SHE’D BEEN ASSIGNED TO ONE OF THE COUNCIL’S MOST FRAUGHT SITUATIONS” E X C U S E ME SHANNON SAY MORE RIGHT NOW

“THE COUNCIL SUSPECTS THAT SOON [REDACTED]” SHANNON IF I DONT GET MY ANSWERS I WILL BE THROWING ROTTEN FRUIT AT YOUR H O U S E

EXCUSE ME??? ALDEN DEDRICK VACKER?????

................................

Do I even need to explain to you what his middle name sounds like

Do I even need to explain the theories racing through my mind right now

I’m going to lose my mind. Shannon. You’ve killed me. This is it. My death. I’m going to go insane

You’re telling me this man married his 201st match recommendation and was engaged to Alina, his 104th recommendation.....did we know he was engaged or am I insane and just forgot

Della Adara Vacker. Queen.

Literally how did Alden and Della get together I need answers

“The Council opted to take her up on it [her request to be appointed emissary], having her look into [REDACTED] and [REDACTED]” bruh.........Shannon how u gonna tie up all ur loose ends if u keep ADDING INFO

“Della did inform the Council that [REDACTED]” Shannon is literally just toying with me now. She is doing this on purpose.

GISELA MINETTE SENCEN WHY IS THAT NAME SO PRETTY BITCH I WILL TEAR YOU APART also I hate that her middle name and my middle name sound so similar someone shoot me

Shannon is going to have to sit there in her wrongness on some of her pronunciations of things and be wrong and get used to it. VES-purr-ah. I ask you.

Do we know what a Chief Mentalist is already or am I sensing more complications Shannon will get to explain later under duress

My dearest s c r e a m e d when she saw the art of Bullhorn. She screamed “YESSSSS” aloud. It startled me into nearly dropping the book.

Wow we love that Laura’s way of interpreting that humans are “less stunning” than elves was to draw Sophie’s human family as chubby. Like. I get that literally in canon they are not skinny models, but. Come on. Bruh. Seriously. I’m tired.

Laura Hollingsworth has no fucking clue what Forkle looks like and she can get used to being wrong about it

My dearest said verbatim “she can only draw one face” and honestly? Correct

That being said....I saw her renderings of Linh and Livvy and Oralie and was reminded that I am, in fact, super not straight

ANYway

We love Shannon for reminding the fandom that the elven world is flawed on purpose! You’re doing amazing, sweetie!

Anyone else wondering whether Blur (who is widely theorized to be Jensi’s brother) is also Councillor Darek or am I reaching

....I’m reaching, it’s because he’s a phaser and I’ve gone so long without any aNSWERS, SHANNON

Swirled? White silver and gold?? Leaping crystals??? Hello????

How long before Keefe Sencen (or the Neverseen, take your pick) steals one of those, place your bets now

Shannon Messenger Drop Your Starkflower Stew Recipe Challenge

.....why does the art of custard bursts look like mini Victoria sandwich cakes what is this utter nonsense

Keefe Sencen’s affinity for butterblasts is valid and correct and I stand by it and also I want some

I amend my earlier statement. Shannon Messenger Drop A Comprehensive KOTLC Cookbook With All The Recipes For All The Elven Foods Challenge Because I Just Ate A Whole Meal And All Those Food Descriptions STILL Made Me Hungry

Biana doing a fashion section? Tam and Linh on Exilium? Flori on gnomish vegetation? Delightful.

Fitzroy Avery Vacker on sports is my new favorite I’m not taking any questions. Fitzroy Avery Vacker, popular but awkward jock.

The twiggler illustration is even better than I imagined, god bless Dex Dizznee

The STUFFED. ANIMAL. SQUAD. ILL CRY I SWEAR ILL DO IT DO YOU SEE THOSE CUTE LIL ILLUSTRATIONS

I will probably never again see the words “the unmapped stars” and not immediately go “Ah. Nattie” in my brain so that’s where we are on username permanence

On that same note I’ve been doing a double-take every time I see the name Silveny so we love that for me

Sophie’s 👏 codenames 👏 for 👏 her 👏 friends 👏

DIMPLES 😭 SPLASH 😭 DONT TOUCH ME

“Sometimes I wonder if the real reason the Black Swan won’t tell me what they’re planning is because they don’t actually have a PLAN” girl. You and me both. (“but at the same time...I kinda think it might be better” I....nah)

Me, reading Sophie’s description of Gethen, getting to the part about a crescent-shaped scar from a dog bite: good boy, Lodie

I can and will be making lushberry juice before all of this is over. We will conveniently forget whether I decide that it will be adult lushberry juice or not

Not to be dramatic but Keefe Sencen is so fucking sappy and also REALLY bad at deflecting the trauma with humor even though he tries so damn hard and I’m sorry I know it isn’t cool to like Keefe Sencen anymore but I have never once claimed to be cool and I do I like Keefe Sencen a lot so there

this novella is seriously only a third of the book. Just. I’m both glad for Shannon because that means she definitely got more sleep and hopefully felt less stress about plotting this year

But also. A third of the book

Anyway

NOT GONNA LIE—I HAVE BEEN WONDERING IF GISELA WOULD WORK WITH WHAT KEEFE ALREADY HAD. I THINK I AM CORRECT, FELLAS

Give Keefe Sencen His Voice Back In A Dramatic Little Mermaid-Style Fashion 2K20

I almost put 2K21 but I am impatient and refuse to wait that long

Well. Guess he won’t be in a coma for the next year.

Would that have been better, I wonder

Also

Not me sighing in resignation that there still seem to be more questions than answers

Gettin tired of this lil song and dance, Shannon

However

Please god in heaven Shannon give me more Grady and Keefe moments in the future because that was The Shit, Yo

Also. The amount of Keefex I got in this book. The Lord said “maybe I can’t give her answers but I’ll make sure her heart isn’t just sad”

Please Let Me Be Able To Trust Glimmer Thanks Very Much Shannon

Well it’s 1:37 AM here so I’m gonna go to bed and then instantly regret this post in the morning ✌️

#seriously what is this behemoth of a nonsense post #smh #kotlc #keeper of the lost cities #theories #shitpost #keeper 8.5 #unlocked #unlocked spoilers #spoilers

so i said this earlier i think but. foster parent keefe ?

he wants to foster someone, to give them a family, because lets face it, he never had much of one, but hes also absolutely terrified of messing up the kid, so he doesnt register, doesnt even look into it.

i dont relly know what the turning point would be, but i assume it would have something to do with one of his students being super scared evey time he has them last period, so much that he can feel it without touching them, so he finally asks, and the student tells him ab their terrible home life, and keefe offers them to stay over if they want.

im just thinking of keefe opening his house to any and all students that cant, or dont want to go home, and unnoficially fostering them anywyas (and being a better parent than theirs, tbh)

and wow i didnt wanna make it angsty, but one of the kids parents suing him for kidnapping or whatever, and the kid having to go back the time that the case is examined, and keefe being like “welp, this happened once and im not letting it happen to anyone else”

sophie being tottally on board with the project, and pushing the council in his favor as much as she can

a lot of parents get put to court for child abuse

(now i am fully aware that having these many children around wouldnt be sustainable, so thats why in this headcanon, most kids are already teenagers, who can take care of themselves for the most part)

(not sayingg theyre on their own, just that they dont need to be supervised while taking a shower or doing their homework)

soon enough, a bunch of other people join him in fostering kids, including tam, linh, della tiergan and prentice but also people hes never met in his life.

ok so now that the how is established

keefe is like, super careful with whatever he says to his kids. hes suuuuuper hesitant to ever tell them something they did was wrong, all the time

at one point, he does say something to one of them, because their grades have been slipping a lot, yet keefe *knows* they almost always get it right on non graded homework

they end up telling him that the questions in the exams were phrsed in different ways from the homework, and so they often lost a lot of time figuring out what was asked

keefe talks about it to the teacher in question, and all is well that ends well

also at one point, one of them getting their report handed back to them and blanching because most of their grades are bs, and giving it to keefe in a shaky hand

keefe not even waiting to look at the report to tell them hes proud of them, and that theyre so so smart, and that grades arent important at all in the great scheme of things

keefe absolutely melting whenever one of them slips up and calls him keefe at school instead of lord sencen (hes tried getting rid of the name, but the coucil would let him beofre he found a suitable replacement) (elwin offered, bt keefe didnt want to impose so hes stuck with sencen)

elwin being the one to tell keefe that he *could* tell his kids when thy did something wrong, or he was worried ab their grades, that it was all ab the *way* he told them, that there was a very big difference between shaming them and offering help

anywyas idk where im going with this

i hope it was at least somewhat enjoyable, feel free to add to it if you wanna

list of characters i think would join villian!sophie:

marella

dex

biana

tam

linh

keefe

fitz? (maybe)

della? della

elwin, he’d be conflicted but want to help his children

tiergan

livvy

maruca

stina, with a minimal amout of complaining

grady

edaline

if amy were there, then amy

im missing some, feel free do add or subtract

Okay all of these are fantastic ideas

Villain Marella? Yes. So much yes. The parallels with Fintan >>>

Yeah I can see Dex getting a little Too pissed off at how xe's treated and just murdering some motherfuckers

Villain Biana would just be hot, that's all I'm saying.

I don't think villain Tam would be a thing, since the Neverseen actively tried to recruit him and he still wasn't into it, but ig I could see that

Linh needs to go batshit and use the full extent of her power istg- also I read a really good villain!Linh fic once (that's a lie I've reread it) that takes up too many of my thoughts so yes to that.

Unfortunately, I do not think Keefe would go with villain Sophie. Again, has been "with" the Neverseen and got away so I don't think he would go back.

The Fitz one is also... ehhhh... he's just so determined not to be like Alvar that I don't think he would- but imagine the ANGST if he did!

Villain Della would ALSO be really hot. Livvy just imagined this and fainted.

Ooooh honestly I think Elwin would be so interesting... the villains still need a medic ig, they would get hurt a lot.

I can picture Tiergan murdering a few council members, post memory-break-and-everything.

Livvy would join the villains just to make out with villain!Della tbh. As ce should.

Maruca? Perhaps

Stina would only join because her girlfriends joined. But she wouldn't complain too much I agree.

Listen! Villain Grady is something that would be so incredible-

I want to see Edaline lose her shit. Please.

Hmmm and for your consideration would Wylie join? I feel like he would support Tiergan murdering whoever voted to arrest Prentice tbh

#villain!sophie #this is such an interesting concept--

Alright. I just finished reading the Pride fic. And while I'm tempted to stuff all my amaezement into the tags as usual, I'll do it in an ask because you need to know just how fantastic of a writer you are.

First off, trans Jolie gives me life, as does Dadwin wanting to adopt the parentless kids (that made me want to cry, honestly, how can you make my heart shatter like this with one line–) She/he/they Sophie supremacy. Also, the line with Fintan doing rainbow arson. And the Fitz scene– holy shit I loved the Fitz scene. "And now he has a word for what he feels for his best friend when they make eye contact a little too long. He has a word and he's not alone." AMAZING. And then, in the Biana scene – "Yeah. Yeah, this is home." – this evoked such a strong feeling in me, like it hurt but also nourished me, and holy shit how are you this talented. I also love how you weave the events of your Little Miss Perfect songfic into a lot of your writing (as you should. It's an amazing fic) and the Maruca part. Edaline Ruewen is such a good parent. MARELLA REDEK FI/FIRE SUPREMACY I AM SO HAPPY YOU PUT THAT IN HOLY SHIT. And guess what, I'm lucky enough for there to be more Dadwin, Dadwin fuels my soul and makes me so delighted. And Tiergan– holy shit, I love Tiergan, that rule-breaking gay rock ("The law is stupid"). And the Linh and Tam content with Tiergan being their parent– fjsdjkhfasl ahhhh. Wylie is the tired-of-this-shit aro content we all need, and also him being the Big Brother fuels my soul even more than it's already been fueled. Dex's hit hard in the best way, ouch. I didn't know I needed Math Gay™ Stina in my life, but I did, thank you. Dellivvy. And Fitz and Biana betting on it. The Bronte and Oralie dynamic gives me life.

Whew, that was a massive ramble but– your writing. Saiph, I don't know quite how to say this, but your writing is absolutely incredible. I felt the full range of happiness reading this fic – delight and warmth and amusement and the joy at being near tears. I was near tears. I am near tears, and they're about to spill out, because your writing is so amazing and profound and evocative and makes me feel like I'm home, like this little pocket of this fic is cushions and blankets and soft things and it's just where I want to be. I want to live in this pride fic, Saturn, I want to nestle in its nooks and crannies and read it again and again and again because it makes me feel unbelievably happy.

I think my soul just ascended when I saw this ask because no matter how much I love people screaming in the tags, this gives me the chance to scream back in my own post and *cradles this ask gently* it's something that can be so personally.

I've only had the trans Jolie headcanon for like three hours, but I will die on this hill.

Okay but Elwin just... they're such a caring person and it would break their heart to see so many people hurting and they want to help them but they can't. And then they try anyway and I just-

She/he/they Sophie is one of my favorite headcanons, and I really just needed to give the human family some content. I miss them.

Tbh I wasn't that big a fan of the Fitz scene, it didn't look like I wanted it too in my head, but I'm glad you liked it! I absolutely adored writing the Biana and Maruca scenes. You should know that the little miss perfect events are my personal canon and it happened in the background unless explicitly stated otherwise.

EDALINE IS SUCH A GOOD MOM I WANT HER TO ADOPT ME ACTUALLY. If you've been following my rereads of kotlc I'm never gonna not scream about Edaline being a good mom.

I wasn't really sure what to do for Marella but I think you reminded me that those pronouns existed? And I knew that would be such a power move so yeah. They're fires now.

Dadwin. Dadwin is my life force that is all. And yeah Tiergan is a rule breaking gay rock that is his entire personality. Like "The law is stupid" is 100% something xe would say in canon, change my mind. Linh needs a supportive parent and I am happy to provide that for her okay. Tired-of-this-shit-aro-older-brother Wylie supremacy okay.

Dex's was... I struggled a lot with that one but I'm so pleased with how it turned out. And math gay Stina! I knew I wanted one of the four horsegirls to be a math gay and I figured it worked best for her.

I couldn't not include Dellivy. They're just so!!! And the kids absolutely would bet on it. 100%

Please, thank you for the opportunity to ramble back <3

This fic was really my love letter to pride, because I have so much love for pride, and I really am so glad that love shone through and other people are finding something comforting in that. Thank you so much for this ask because fuck, I loved every second of writing that, and it's so good to know it resonated with others.

#long post #i don't really know how to words but. i love you so much okay
