#Imogen Cardulo

[nicenotkind]

I disagree that Violet would be Liam’s best friend, but the rest it’s perfection.

“would you slap your best friend for a million dollars?”

Sawyer: “I would slap Ridoc for free”

Ridoc: *tearing up* “I’m your best friend?”

Violet: “if you slap me and then I slap you we each get a million”

Rhiannon: “great thinking, fuck the system”

Garrick: “fucking FINALLY”

Xaden: “bold of you to assume you can even get close enough to my face to… what are you— Garrick— Garrick NO STOP TRYING TO HIT ME THAT WASN’T A CHALLENGE—”

Quinn: “no.”

Imogen: “for a MILLION? girl I’ll slap YOU if you don’t start acting right”

Liam: “I would never hit Violet.”

Vi: “what if it was during sparring?”

Liam: “well—”

Vi: “what if Xaden said you could?”

Liam: “he can’t give me permission to hit you??”

Vi: “what if you were being held at sword point”

Liam: “do I still get the million dollars?”

Vi: “yes.”

Liam: “still no!”

Vi: “WHY NOT?”

Liam: “DO YOU WANT ME TO HIT YOU??”

Vi: “IT’S A MILLION DOLLARS I JUST CAN’T FIGURE OUT WHY YOU WOULDN’T TAKE THAT OPPORTUNITY!”

bonus:

interviewer: “would you slap—”

Cat: “yes.”

interviewer: “I didn’t finish the—??”

Cat: “the answer is yes, I will slap anybody you put in front of me.”

interviewer: “…even Maren?”

Cat and Maren, at the same time: “yes”

Maren: “I’m still mad at you for that”

Cat: “you shouldn’t have tried to take my fucking strawberries??”

I don't know if anyone's already talked about this, but I was wondering about something. So, everyone now knows that Xaden is venin, right? And we know from the first book that Xaden was responsible for all the Marked Ones. Now, I don't quite remember if he still was to the same extent after the truth came out, but if he is, I'm worried about them. I can imagine that someone like general aetos would try to order an execution or some other punishment for all of them, because "their leader turned enemy, so all of them must be enemies" or some other bullshit. Am I the only one who's worried?

Now, if aetos does do that, I could see a certain Wingleader finally standing up to his father and defending the Marked Ones. It would also be a full circle moment for his character arc; from seeing them as the enemy himself, to standing up for them. It would be kinda poetic.

It’s the weekend!!! Which means I can get back to writing and updating a new chapter of the bystanders cookbook!!!

But….do we need to do some Tyrrish men headcanons in the meantime???

It Would Hit You Like Poison If You Knew What I Knew

The first battle of War Games is nearly a disaster. We nearly lose Liam.

It’s nearly a lot of things, but in the end we come out on top.

By the next morning, there’s a dangerous spark of hope in my chest. Just one more of these stupid battles to survive for the year. Liam isn’t dead. Bodhi isn’t dead. Riorson isn’t dead. Garrick isn’t dead. Fourth Wing seems to have a pretty good track record for Tyrrish rebel children this year after all.

When I open my door, intent on getting an early start for the breakfast line, I pause and narrow my eyes at the figure waiting against the opposite wall. Garrick flashes me a smile closing the space between us in a few quick strides before I let him into my room at his pointed look.

“What are you—”

“I have gossip for you.”

Xaden: “Okay everyone, safety briefing for this weekend.”

Xaden *to Ridoc and Bodhi*: “Do not add to the population.”

Xaden *to Imogen*: “Do not subtract from the population.”

Xaden *to Rhiannon, Sawyer, and Garrick in order*: “Do not end up in the newspaper, the hospital, or in jail.”

Xaden *to Violet*: “If you do end up in jail, establish dominance quickly.”

[mattyalwayssmokesweed]

We know when Xaden and Violet have children, they’re going to name their first son Liam. It’s a no-brainer.

But so will Sloane. And Garrick. And Imogen. And Bodhi. And Ridoc. And Rhiannon. And almost the entire squad.

All of them meet up for a small catch-up and bring along their children? One of the kids gets in trouble and someone screams “Liam, be careful!” Almost all the kids turn around, thinking they’re talking to them.

Liam becomes the most used name in Tyrrendor. There’s an entire generation of kids called Liam after the rebellion. Liam becomes The Name™. Everyone is Liam.

Violet: your shirt looks great, Garrick

Garrick: thanks viole-

Violet: I think it would look even better on Imogen’s floor

Imogen: are you hitting on Garrick… for me?

Violet: well someone has to

[mysterylilycheeta]

Rhiannon: Don't you just hate men sometimes? They can be so useless! Imogen: Right? They're terrible! Jesinia: *signs* 100% Violet: Definitely. Xaden, Garrick, Bodhi, Ridoc, Sawyer, and Dain: Liam: Violet: Not you Liam, you're perfect! The other girls: Honestly, he is! The boys: Wh-

Garrick: How many did you kill?

Garrick: Damn it! I am still at 30
