The scene in Fools Assassin where Fitz touches the statue and hears the screaming is literally the ‘subtle foreshadowing’ trend

This passage in assassin's apprentice is so funny to me. All I can think of is the Fool going "you think I try so desperately to keep you alive because I LIKE you?? 😑😑😑 It's just for the prophecy dumbass 🙄🙄🙄 it's not like I'm entranced with you or anything 😤😤😤" like gosh dude just admit you have a big fat crush on him already.

pov your best friend™ occasionally turns himself into a beautiful woman and everyone thinks he’s your wife so you gotta be a dick about it because unfortunately you are not as immune to her wiles as you thought you were

i truly believe fool's fate was the closest fitz ever came to realizing his feelings for beloved. after beloved died, he stopped caring. before, there was always a layer to his thoughts, always a little hesitation or a word that dismissed the moments full meaning ("i felt strangely at peace", etc) bc that was safe, right? if he had a mental wall in his thoughts about beloved he surely couldn't feel anything else he wasn't saying thus he wouldn't have to explain himself. but after beloved died, that stops. he doesn't care anymore. like would he have ever thought something like "my dream was dead in my arms" before?? or saying there were "things he would have said to him" if he knew beloved was actually gonna die?? what the FUCK was that about or "the man i had been would not survive this loss" or the fact that he was willing to DIE in beloved's place. like i genuinely think this was the most honest we've ever seen him and he came sooo close to realizing his feelings but then beloved left him and he was forced to suppress them again bc he could NOT be in love w beloved if he wanted a happily ever after with molly. he couldn't be in love. no. imagine him realizing it w that poem and then repressing it bc now that he couldn't have a future w beloved (which he was FULLY willing to have he was fully willing to leave molly and his DAUGHTER behind to go w beloved) he WOULD have the future he 'always wanted' w molly and i think that's exactly why he skipped so much in that chapter and felt so shallow bc he genuinely was trying to convince himself that this was what he wanted and this would finally make him happy but it was not. all he got was content. all he got was an ever after. all he got was burned letters to beloved he would never send. like. god. it makes me so sad to think he was finally close to the truth only to repress it as self-defense.

Look, im not gonna say i loved him more than i loved your mother (but i m not gonna say i loved him less either), and if u think he was my lover then no, what we had was way beyond that (shit, that kind of makes it worse, right?)

I mean it was beyond any sexual coupling i ever had and... ahh shit, wrong book, anyway isnt it a beautiful day? Where's Web?

The first 90% of Fool’s Assassin: wow this is such a cool beginning, I can’t wait to see how all the dynamics that are being set up between the characters at Tom Badgerlock’s Boarding House For Wayward Souls develop and shift over the course of this new trilogy!

The last 10% of Fool’s Assassin:

"Beloved Fitz and Nighteyes abandoned Bee when they went into the stone wolf-" no actually stone wolf is the best dad ever. Bee's dads didn't leave her they just all merged into one bigger slightly more functional dad. Stone wolf went with Bee and everyone else to the mountain kingdom where they all live happily forever and ever. Stone wolf dad gives Bee rides on his back and goes hunting for her so she's never hungry and cuddles her at night when she has nightmares. They are the most wonderful attentive dad ever and Bee is never neglected ever again.

Unless the eventual Bee book disproves this (god I hope not) then this is canon and no one can argue with me.
