So when Councillor Terik fakes an ability it's all fine and dandy but when I, Timkin Heks-

[lucyshypemaster]

stop with the stina hate you guys 💔💔💔 that's pookie oh also she can totally bodyslam your favs

[you-have-been-frizzled]

Terik age 15: i can't be talentless, i gotta think of something-i-um can sense people’s potential, yeah, that's what i can do

elven Society: that sounds completely believable, you can totally go the elite levels.

Terik proceeded to gaslight his way though nobility, and ended up on the council because of a lie he made up at 15, and he’s still bullshitting it to this day

the heks as a family are so interesting to me especially when you compare them to the dizznees (under a read more bc it got long lmao).

for example, timkin and vika are aware of the unfairness of the matchmaking system, but rather than fighting the system that keeps them apart, they instead make it seem like they follow the system, rigging it in their favor and then maintaining the status quo. this is especially interesting when you look at vika’s treatment of kesler in the first book. despite being ready to marry a talentless man, she still sees kesler as below her. in fact, she even calls dex a bad match in the first book even though stina would not be that much different from dex if not for timkin having a brother in law at the matchmaking offices.

stina is also interesting in this regard, because she has never had her worldview challenged in the series. despite her own parents literally bribing the system to marry, stina constantly holds the status of dex’s parents above his head. and throughout the series, she never challenges her views on the match system. she never apologizes to dex for being actively bigoted to him. she just. stops being mean to that group specifically. when she and dex begin to work for the council, she just stops being mean to him. when she works with sophie, she does not face any of her views on the elven world, she just cooperates with the group. in fact, in the ninth book, she shows distaste for rayni’s parents rigging the system in their favor, despite her own parents literally doing the same thing. she knows her father is coiffe and expresses to sophie that she wants sophie to save the gnomes, but outside of that, she does not ever tackle her flawed views.

in conclusion: what do the heks stand for? what does the status quo hold for them?

old Timkin Heks from the Keeper Sexyman 2023 bracket!

[bookwyrminspiration]

I was going to make a post saying something like "rip to timkin but I'd simply lie better and never get caught if I was faking an ability" but then I got to thinking about the fact they literally sent him to exillium. they created a system that prioritized abilities so much he felt his best option was to lie about having one and then punished him for the situation they placed him in. and then Timkin managed to come back? to re-enter society semi-respected having worked hard enough to come back from Exillium? sure he's grumpy sometimes, but Timkin knows what's up. so sorry they caught you king but I believe in you. except for that weird alicorn thing that one time that was rude but otherwise you're ahead of your time <3

EXILUM HCS

- For finals they have a big race in a random place they find (different every year) that has a bunch of obstacles where the kids can’t use abilities only talents. There’s a time-limit which changes each year depending on the race course, Timkin Heks set some kind of record which got him to be considered to be brought back

- The beads they get each day are all different shades so if you get the same color twice it’s like getting a rare Prattles pin

-They trade beads for colors they want

- The kids sometimes make friendship bracelets with the bead. They also make different types of jewelry, the ones who have been there for a long time tend to just wrap a long chain of them around their uniform

- One time the place the school ended up was on a pretty normal beach so there was the equivalent of a beach episode

- Sometimes there are fights, the coaches only let them keep fighting if they don’t use abilities so there are a lot of fist fights

- Whenever they set up in a place with a lot of plants or animals they spend the day helping the medic gather supplies for elixirs

I feel like Kesler and Timkin were friends tho
