Cardan: I need to talk to you about something.

Oak: I get it. You hate me. You’re going to have me killed. You’re going to lock me up. Beat me. Yell at me. I understand. You thought I was trying to kill you and take the throne, and I should’ve came to you and talked to you. I am so sorry please don’t hate me.

Cardan: …I don’t know about any of that but ANYWAY what I DO KNOW is that i knew your tricks before Jude did. I am LITERALLY so smart. Big brain. so big i need a bigger crown. i have never been so smart. jude is never living this down. GET WRECKED

Cardan in The Queen of Nothing:

How I imagine him ten years later:

Love, that force that compels us to be sometimes better and often worse

Jude: noone is interested in that

Oak: 👀👀👀

Self indulgent drawing of Jude with different hair textures because I don't think Holly Black ever specified.

They say that he can talk flowers into opening their petals at night, as though his face were that of the sun. He’ll steal your heart.

What if I am too much? If I need too much?” she asks, her voice very low. He takes a deep breath, his smile gone. “I’m not good. I’m not kind. Maybe I am not even safe. But whatever you want from me, I will give you. —The Prisoners Throne

Ok The Prisoner's Throne broke me, but you know what was the funniest part of the entire book?

Oak being the noisiest bitch in the entirety of Elfhame. That boy was always listening!

When he accidentally listened in to Jude and Cardan's private conversation in the prologue and in the end when Jude was with Cardan while he was recovering. LITERALLY EVERY TIME HYACINTHE AND TIERNAN WAS INTERACTING!!

No because he was INVESTED into Hyacinthe and Tiernan's relationship! Boy was carrying the entire fate of Elfhame and his relationship with Wren on his back for the whole book but damn him if he didn't give couple counseling to his otp any chance he would get! And he was always eavesdropping into their conversations!

Love that for him

"Cardan looks taken aback. Or possibly I spoke so fast he's not even sure what I said. 'You need not say it out of pity,' he says finally, with great deliberateness. 'Or because I was under a curse. I have asked you to lie to me in the past, in this very room, but I would beg you not to lie now.'"

- Cardan Greenbriar, The Queen of Nothing

*jude , oak, and wren trying to have a discussion*

cardan: JUDE ??? jude ??? a CURSE?? WIFE?? HELLO?? can we talk about this CURSE you have that you didn’t tell me ??

[avelanlorelay]

Wondering again why Cardan seemed so unhappy with the idea of a trip to the Undersea at the end of The Prisoner's Throne.

He and Jude don't like the sea, that's a fact. But he wasn't the least bit excited about seeing his friend Nicasia? Not even happy about her engagement? I'm sorry if you like Nicasia, but with so many years of friendship he just doesn't give a damn about her wedding, it's too funny for me! (I actually laugh at it at random moments in my life)

This boy goes to his oldest friend's wedding and is simply thinking: "So what? I'm married to the most beautiful and amazing girl in the mortal and fae world, why should I care about other fae's marriages? I'd rather be at home, loving my wife. not dying of boredom with those stupid selkies."

I'm sorry but I needed to express that feeling lol
