#evajacks supremacy

[archerandthefoxx]

I really want to talk about acftl (an excuse to defend my husband jacks) so SPOILERS AHEAD.

●I, for one, didn't see his confession as basic. I didn't even expect an "I love you" from him at all. Jacks is an action person, not a words person. He shows that he cares, and he won't say that he does. And I think him saying just "I love you" is not out of his character at all.

●I've seen a lot of people say that one reason they did not like acftl was because of Jacks and they felt that his confession was too bland and simple.

● Because he loved her, he let her go as he thought she would be better with Apollo, someone who he had believed had done nothing wrong to Evangeline and thought despite the fact that he didn't like Apollo, he believed that Apollo was good for her. He thought that Evangeline deserved the best - a prince and castle and a happily ever after. He believed that he couldn't give her what she truly deserved. He watched her knowing that he shouldn't want her and did, but he still tried to keep his distance away from her (and failed miserably). He killed his own best friend so that he wouldn't kill her again because Jacks couldn't stand the thought of her dying again. He went out of his way every single time to protect Evangeline. He gave up his own heart in exchange for a cuff that would protect Evangeline from harm. He believed he had to leave her to protect her and despite the fact that leaving her was like agony to him, he thought that his pain and suffering would be better than Evangeline having to suffer.

●Stephanie had to break him to understand his actions in ouabh/tbona towards Eva and spark a change in his behaviour

●The little "no, not again". Don't tell me your heart did not crack at this line. He was actually frightened and terrified at the thought he lost Evangeline again. Like I had to close my book and stare at the ceiling trying not to cry. And the best bit was that Eva just forgot to breathe. Jacks made her breathless hehe.

Thinking about how throughout OUABH and TBONA Jacks is the only person who truly acts in Evangeline’s best interest.

Like Marisol, she doesn’t give a damn about Eva.

Chaos doesn’t want anything to happen to her because he needs her but also let’s them be hunted by vampire in OUABH, not to mention kills her eventually in TBONA.

Even Lala, who Evangeline considers a friend, curses her with the intent to cause harm to her. Like the Mirror Curse, Lala knew Apollo was dangerous after the Archers curse was placed on him. This also insured that Jacks couldn’t harm Apollo to protect Eva because he’d also be hurting Eva. She also gaslights Eva, telling her she’s only doing what she’s doing to reclaim her lost love from the Valory Arch. I understand that’s she’s a Fate who feels limited emotions, but her choosing to punish Eva for refusing to open the arch was extremely cruel.

Apollo her own husband, doesn’t care what happens to her. He’s aware of the Archers and Mirror Curse being placed upon him. He knows that every time he’s by Eva, that no matter how hard he tries fighting it he will still try to kill her. In TBONA, he sneaks into her bedroom at Chaos castle to try and sleep with her, claiming “he’s been waiting for so long” and kisses her and starts taking her clothes off. But guess what, the Archers curse kicks in and he’s now strangling his wife. He would’ve killed her if it wasn’t for Jacks intervention, but even when Jacks try’s taking her away, Apollo begins screaming from the cage “To get his hands off his wife, and not to touch her.” Instead of begin horrified of almost killing his wife he’s more jealous of Jacks saving her from being killed.

And sure Jacks has his own motives that he doesn’t tell her about. But at every given instance he’s protected her, he risked Turing into a vampire to keep her safe. He jumped off a cliff with her in his arms, (As a swimmer and a lifeguard this is extremely dangerous, especially oceans with carry strong riptides and currents, also please never cliff dive if you aren’t aware of what lord beneath) knowing that her not being able to swim could possibly kill him. He jumps anyways and swims back to shore with her in his arms. Not only that but he carry’s her back to the castle so she doesn’t cut her shoeless feet on the rocks. He constantly protects her, telling her he’d kill any one who dared hurt her. In the end he choose Eva’s safety over his feelings for her. He knew if he stayed with her he would’ve kissed her, believing it would’ve killed her. He’d rather be unhappy for the rest of his life without her than risk her safety.

In conclusion Jacks is the only character who truly cares about Eva and choose to protect her every single time.

IT BETTER BE. PLEASE I NEED JACKS TO BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF AP*LLO

IF THIS ISN'T JACKS' WORDS TO APOLLO BEFORE HE PUNCHES HIM THEN IMMA RIOT😭😭😭

[isthataraccoon]

one thing I see a lot is people saying they dislike Eva because she’s weak, naive, stupid, helpless, etc, and that breaks my heart bc it’s true she isn’t the stereotypical badass FMC that’s super common in YA (and they’re still awesome, jude/kiva/inej are some of my favs), but she actually acts like the 17 something kid she actually is and I find that so charming and comforting. Yes, she is a bit helpless and makes some questionable decisions, but she IS A KID trying to figure things out on her own and I adore that Stephanie made that a part of her character. A lot of times the MCs aren’t allowed to act like the teens they are, so it’s refreshing that Eva can. Eva is one of my favorite characters I’ve seen in a while, and by far my fav from Garber. She is so precious, and unlike many other FMCs, really relatable to the teen girl I am that longs for love.

Original work below the cut.

Elain x Azriel

What Bloomed in the Darkgarden 42 chapters, Canon-Compliant, Slow Burn, Explicit.

Elain Archeron is not the trembling fawn everyone believes her to be.

Years after Hybern’s war, she feels an awakening. She then begins mastering the arts of divination under the guidance of an Oracle of the Day Court. All the while waging an inevitable war of passion with a holy mess of a shadow-wreathed male. So perhaps a little more softly, a little more lethally, Elain begins her journey down the path unknown. For there’s something blooming within her- something softer, darker, and wilder than she can name, reaching for the song of the Void.

Elain x Lucien

In Fading Hush of Eden Lost 12 Chapters, Canon-Compliant, Slow Burn, Explicit.

Elain Archeron takes up residence in an empty cottage in the highlands of the Day Court to study native plants. Lucien Vanserra is stepping into his role as a future High Lord in the city nearby, and visits her once a week to bring her provisions. Thus in the soft, desperate, hushed winds of summer’s end, what was once lost between them becomes found.

Viviane x Kallias

Upon A Midnight Clear 7 Chapters, Canon-Compliant, Friends to Lovers, Slow Burn, Explicit.

There was loss. There was war. There was ruin. But before it all, there was him. And Viviane would freeze over the burning heart of hell itself to keep him from harm. To hold him close. To bring him home.

Lady of Autumn x Helion

Autumn Burns Eternal 12 Chapters, Canon-Compliant, Slow Burn, Explicit.

She had a name. Not that anyone in the room was using it. But she had a name.

Goodbye, I love how everyone was so invested in the main love triangle in Legendary and Finale between Tella, Legend and Jacks but I was just more curious to see Scarlett’s competition with the count and Julian 💀

[magicalbookwyvern]

I BELIEVE IN EVAJACKS SUPREMACY

Also can we talk about the TINY BLUE DRAGON 😭💗

[archerandthefoxx]

Apollo would've could've should've stayed in that suspended state.

[archerandthefoxx]

Not my idea but what if when Jacks said "I'm the villain in my own story" he was talking about himself as the Archer.

[archerandthefoxx]

[archerandthefoxx]

Ouabh (C.5/p.39) :

Had me giggling and jumping up and down when I realised. I audibly GASPED.

Ouabh (C.42/p.343) :

[archerandthefoxx]

I didn't realise until just now that these are both the same quote.

[archerandthefoxx]

Just random notes since ACFTL comes out tomorrow-even though my book won't be delivered until Friday :(

● p.275/ c.38 of ouabh: "heavier than an apple should have been"

What if that was the unbitten fruit? I mean, how likely is it that Jacks, a Fate, has a fated object? Not unlikely. But the only thing that makes me feel against this is the fact there are occasions when it is noted that there are multiple apples/apple cores. Maybe it multiplies lol?

● p.106/ c.13 of ouabh: "too familiar nickname"

If this doesn't support the Evangeline is the first fox/ reincarnation/ knew each in the past theory, I don't know what does. What if they knew each other and Ap*llo kept pulling some warnette level shit where he erased their memories every time.

● Last page of TBONA: After Evangeline said he doesn't know who he is, Ap*llo 'smiled wider, which seemed an odd response to her confession'

If this does not convince you that Ap*llo is Lysander I actually don't know what will. I think him smiling wider meant that he didn't think it would work, possibly because it was probably a while since he's been able to do this? I think Evangeline opening the Valory arch meant that the Valors woke up such as Honora who probably is 'in charge?' (I don't know how to word it) of her children's magic/powers. Same way that Honora removed Chaos' helm, she removed the Archer’s and mirror curse from Ap*llo and...gave him the ability to use his magic? Or made it possible. (Sorry. I have the ideas and the points but I just don't know how to word them)

ACFTL THOUGHTS: SPOILERS AHEAD

I'm going to be completely honest. I really enjoyed acftl and I honestly think one of the main reasons that people did not like it (apart from the lack of evajacks) is the fact that the plot felt disconnected and there were so many unanswered questions.

I genuinely think that acftl is a result of the story curse. My reason being:

● First the bn exclusive foil design had the title 'The Ballad of the Archer and the Fox' on it. We all know that this story is a victim of the story curse; Jacks owns I think 7 copies of the book and some are blank, some have words that move around the page, etc. In some sense, the foil design implies that we are reading a book (acftl) that is already under the influence of the story curse.

● Liana Fox would never tell Evangeline the ending for the stories she told her implying that most stories don't have a clear ending...due to the story curse.

● The quote Liana would say (that every story has the possibility for infinite endings) was Stephanie Garber's reasoning for including alternate endings for exclusive/special editions of acftl. I think that quote being her reasoning for this simply suggests that the story has been affected by the story curse.

● When Madame Voss tried to teach Evangeline the love story of her and Apollo, the book she bought had the title "The Greatest Love Story Ever Told: The True and Unabridged History of Evangeline Fox and the Prince of Hearts" because of the story curse. This alone shows that their love story has already been affected by the story curse because in my opinion, tbona was them realising their feelings for each other and acftl was Eva and Jacks acknowledging and accepting their feelings, so if that's the case then acftl and the events that took place there was their true love story (if that makes sense).

● The story curse means that some questions can't be answered and that there are some things that might not make sense.

Overall, this is my interpretation and you dont have to agree (i just really wanted to post this). Looking at acftl this way makes acftl a solid 4 stars for me. I feel like people would have looked at it different/in this way if it was explained better, but I think the way that it is hinted to the acftl is affected by the story curse is really good.
