#how King of Elfhame learned to hate stories

[mia-nina-lilly]

I could make a list of the cutest things involving Jurdan, and I'd start by saying the obvious: Jude wearing Cardan's clothes even relegating them to the space of complete extravagance is very cute

[planetmars732]

how it feels when i get really excited to talk ab a special interest and my friend goes "yeah you've said that before"

[thejudeduarte]

I read somewhere that this was Cardans' first genuine hug and wtf why is there water leaking out of my eyeballs

[murasaki-cha]

Jude and Cardan on a flower field. Cardan laying his head on Jude's lap. Jude makes a flower crown for him and puts it on his head. Cardan tilts the flower crown succeeding in making Jude laugh. The flowers bloom brighter all around them. That’s it, that's the post. Just happy and soft Jurdan.

Cardan Greenbriar:

Cardan being self-deprecatingly honest

The way Oak gives up his bedroom so Cardan and Jude can have it while they visit him and Vivi/Heather.

The way Oak halfway wakes up when Cardan is sneaking out to find Aslog, but sees its just Cardan and buries his face in the cushions bc he feels safe.

The way Cardan gets to the be safe and caring big brother he never got to have

Fuck all love letters except whatever Cardan Greenbriar had going on when he wrote “my heart is buried with you in the strange soil of the mortal world, as it was drowned with you in the cold waters of the undersea. it was yours before i could admit it, and yours it shall ever remain”

😭😭😭 he LOVES HER

[katsitsiyo]

Your King and Queen will graciously accept your homage and fealty now. 😌

My loves Jude and Cardan, showcasing their mutual scary dog privilege. 😏👑🍷🗡️🐍🏵️

I comm’d this Jurdan piece from @hanelizabeth. (tysm!! ��) I love her TFOTA art so much and I’m so happy to have been able to get my vision done in her style. 🥰😍

[serien-grl-22]

I'm begging you to reread TFOTA and think after every sentence which leaves Cardan's mouth that he CANNOT LIE. And I'm not talking about our basic stuff like "You want to hear me scream." "Yes I do and maybe one day I will.", but more about basic stuff he pops out, like when the folk was eating Snardan he was just like "I always knew I taste delicious." Sir, what?

Cardan: since we’re on the topic of threats mY WIFE IS ON THE WAY—

[thejudeduarte]

Cardan hiding away when he was younger, telling himself that the reason he's not being found is just because he's such a good hider when in reality it's because no one truly loves and cares for him. Him also getting lost during the coronation as his family didn't care that he wasn't on the dias.

But then there's Jude who finds him almost instantly without having any idea on where he could be, once out of pure luck OH MY GOD they're made for each other.

The odd curve of her ear was what he had noticed first. A roundness echoed in her cheeks and her mouth. Then it was the way her body looked solid, as though meant to take up space and weight in the world.

When she moved, she left behind footprints in the forest floor.

Because she didn’t know how to glide silently, to disturb no leaf or branch. He felt smug to see how bad she was at even such an easy thing.

It was only later that it disturbed him to think back on the shape of her boot in the soil, as though she was the only real thing in a land of ghosts.

Something about the fact that one of the first thing about Jude that fascinates Cardan is her realness, the impression that she leaves on the world, her solidness, the fact that she takes up weight and space. Something about Cardan being a really small, light baby, something about Cardan being ignored his whole childhood. Something about Cardan never being noticed or allowed to take up space as a child, about everyone thinking he would never make any difference because he was sixth born. Idfk bro.

Cardan: We all have our demons. 

Cardan, grabbing Jude: This one’s mine.
