Did you see Stephanie’s instagram story on Friday? If you did not, it read -
“Sometimes when I'm writing (or in today's case, revising) I just want to add little footnotes that say, I promise I'm a nicer person than this scene might have you believe. 🥺”
IM SUPER SCARED BY WHAT SHE MEANT BY THAT?!
OH MY GOD I SAW THAT TOO??? I WAS SO SCARED???
"i'm a nice person than a scene might have you believe" UH HUH SURE SURE IM TERRIFIED.
THIS BOOK BETTER HAVE A GOOD ANGST TO FLUFF RATIO OR ELSE.

What is your theory about how the curse on Jacks broke?
Jacks's love for Evangeline broke the curse. Jacks is in love with Evangeline, as in she is his true love.
I don't have the exact paragraphs in hand right now, but it is implied and even slightly confirmed/hinted that Jacks never fell in love with anyone other than Evangeline. It's the first time he truly loved a woman and thus, both his and her love for him broke the curse. Because it is stated several times in the Caraval world, that true love is capable of breaking curses.
I also like to believe that no other woman fell for him the way his Little Fox did.
Another thing that confirms that he didn't love anyone else is, when he had the stones, he turned back time to save Evangeline. He had lots of moments he could go back to, but his only priority was his Little Fox.
The Ballad of the Archer and the Fox (I don't like this at all) but it's there because for one it adds to the poetic and magical style of the books and to show, that the first time Jacks kissed someone, was the time when he was still human and also the first time he killed with his kiss. Aurora put the spell on him back then and thus he became the Prince of Hearts. The Archer story exists to show the beginning of the "birth" of Prince of Hearts and not a love story.
Also, I was expecting the first Evajacks kiss mindblowing... and more scenes with them afterwards...

What’s so funny is jacks literally forced evangeline to marry apollo but then gets jealous of him😭
RIGHT this has me laughing out loud like his plan backfired so bad, i can just imagine him going ”well yeah i needed her to be married to him for the prophecy but i don’t want her to BE MARRIED TO HIM 😒” in his head 😭
what’s also so funny to me is evangeline going ”a prince wants to marry me, yayyy! …wait. this is too good to be true. …jACKS-”

Heyy I had a question about acftl , how do you think Evangeline and jacks are going to meet again, I’ve been thinking about it and I can’t think of anything other than jacks sneaks into Evangelines wedding or smth
Hii!! Thank you for the ask!!
Uh, I guess this was buried in everything that happened after, but Evangeline is already married to Apollo!! This happened in OUABH!! Apollo was poisoned on their wedding night!!
As the entirety of the North remembers their wedding (it was pompous) I doubt Apollo would want another one, so no sneaking around to her wedding.
He could, however, sneak into a ball, (probably in honor of Apollo being 'mysteriously revived') and be faced with the consequences of leaving her alone.
It's my personal opinion, but I believe after he heals from whatever Chaos did to him, he's going to sneak into Wolf Hall to make sure his Little Fox is still alive and Time hasn't stolen her away again.

https://www.tumblr.com/jackstheprinceofhearts/696847001411878912/can-we-just-take-a-sec-to-appreciate-these-amazing
The first two what part are they)? Is the first in the first dinner in the tree to meet Apollo)? 🤔 and the other one he has his golden hair si when they met)? I didn’t picture Eve either that dress or is it another part)? Thank youu
hello!!! thank you for the ask:) ofc i can answer your question!!
so if you're talking about this, the first image is them dancing at apollo's party i believe, or it could be some other part, not entirely sure. the second part is them meeting up in his church where he bites her arm 😏 and gives her the scars, and the third part is them in the crypt 😏🔥after leaving chaos's like lair or whatever
@mellendraws posts had descriptions of what scenes i think but i don't know if they're up anymore because of her account being hacked.
hope this was helpful!!! ❤️

hi. saw uh
saw you were reblogging so OUABH stuff
Did you read it??? And if so, I need your thoughts lol
oh my god i literally binged the series in two days. loved it so so so much i have soooo many thoughts
spoilers ahead for the ouabh series!!!
first of all, i had actually absolutely loved apollo up until the third book/when he took eva's memories. even when he was under the archer curse, he had this like tortured vibe that all good fairytale heroes do, i was like oh my god i'm in love. but i had seen everyone talking about how much they hated him, i was like surely he can't be that bad right..... and then behold. he was That Bad. actually started gagging every time his chapters came up lololol
evangeline — oh. my. god. i loved her so, so much. i have to admit, i didn't like her too much in the starting few chapters (mostly because i was missing scarlett from caraval 💔) but she immediately grew on me. the hopeful romantic, always having faith, being so set on what she wanted (a happy ever after), writing letters to her future self.... loved her so much.
now, of course, i've got to talk about jacks. going into this book, i hated him. i read the caraval series, like, many years ago, and i was absolutely head over heels in love with legend when i did (which apparently not everyone did????) and i never got over what jacks did to tella. again, it's been many years, forgive me if i'm getting the details wrong, but the slowing down her heart, marrying her without telling her, AND the putting her under his spell was just wayyyy too much for me. but i'm not here to talk about caraval, i'm here to talk about jacks! so i went into the books absolutely hating his guts wanting him to keel over and die. but then, somehow, i loved him by halfway through the first book. i only started to like him more and more as time went on, and by the time eva and jacks got to the hollow for the first time, i was giggling + kicking my feet at every word he said hahahah. but seriously "you have no idea what i'm feeling right now" GOD! he is soooo!!!!! and then when he goes by archer in the third book, i bet he thought he was sooo slick with that. "don't be rude, the princess asked you a question" JESUSSSS!!!!!!!!! i'm losing my mind sorry. hate his guts (affectionately now)
don't worry i won't rant about jacks all day even though i very much want to. things i wish we got more of: first of all, jacks' and lala's backstory. i need the details on how they became fates, what their lives were like as humans, et cetera. it felt so rushed! i wouldn't mind more of chaos and lala either, they were surprisingly cute. i also wanted to see more of the valors in general!!!! that plotline couldve been so good, but it felt a little rushed to me. another thing i wanted to see was more of scarlett and tella! maybe this is just personal bias speaking, but i feel like they were just mentioned once in the first book and then forgotten completely. i can see why they might've been left out, so that it's seen as a separate series that people can read with/without caraval, but they could have had a very interesting role, especially when luc showed up and pretended to be king or whatever. which brings me to my next point, luc! i really wished we saw more of him. i kept waiting for him to show up in the third book while eva's memories were gone, but he never did. and what even was that pretending to be the heir to the throne plotline? i think it could've been a little more fleshed out.
i won't complain for too long, though. the underlying theme of all these complaints is just that i wish we got more. more jacks, more valors, more vampires, everything. the series could've easily been a book longer without it feeling like it was dragging on!
tldr; amazing series. absolutely loved it. highly recommend, i'd probably rate it 4.5 stars. i didn't talk much about the things that i loved about this book, because that would be wayyyyy way way too long, but there were so many moments and aspects that were sooo incredible and well thought out! cannot wait for the next book in the caraval universe :)

Have you read once upon a broken heart?
yeah read them a while back and i really liked the first 2. hadn’t read YA in forever so it was a fun surprise. then read the third book that came out recently…and </3
similar trajectory to the cruel prince series for me (if you followed my meltdown about those). first 2 good. 3rd disappointing </3
#actually made queen of nothing look like a better conclusion in comparison#they forgot half the characters even existed in the ouabh conclusion#books#ask

Hi! I hope I’m not bothering you, but could you possibly post the first four pages of acftl here? Tysm 😊
Hi! Your not bothering me at all! First off, it’s actually the first four chapters not pages. And, I am sorry but the last time someone tried to it was given a copyright strike and taken down so the same thing would soon probably happen. I could post the link for the website though! (I believe it’s still up) You could also join the discord server (if your able to) that @jackstheprinceofhearts has, the chapters have been posted on there.
Leave another ask and let me know your the same anon and I can post the link, or leave a reply.

It's hard to get through Ouabh series when Jacks is focused on another girl. And the whole series is kinda about that. Also In Caraval, Jacks seems more caring and affectionate towards Tella than Evangeline. He's rude to Evangeline and yeah he may protect her but doesn’t he protect her because he needs her as a key to go back to Tella. And With the ending of Tbona, using the stones to save Evangeline, wasn't he already going to rewrite history by going back to Tella? I see people say that he went back in time to save Evangeline knowing the consequences but wasn’t he already going to do that for Tella?
hi anon! thank you for sending your thoughts! you make good points, and i agree, it does get frustrating to read about how focused he is on tella.
i personally look at his actions through the lens of his story, his feelings, and his beliefs - it isn’t a flawless perspective to the story and i’m not saying he’s always in the right, he certainly does make flawed decisions and downright terrible ones too, but i’ve found it interesting to try to understand what’s going on in his head even if it makes him do stupid things and clouds his reason.
basically since he kissed tella and she didn’t die, he’s been convinced that she’s the only chance he will ever have at love - he doesn’t genuinely love her at any point, but for the entirety of the series (except for the very very end) he thinks he could only ever be a danger to any other girl and it would be better to stay away from anyone else for their safety, no matter what. thanks to his curse, tella becomes his obsession.
after tella makes it clear she wants nothing to do with him (which she has every right to do), he believes he will never have another chance at love and is ready to go to unreasonable lengths - going back in time - to get one. i think that once he grows to care about evangeline, he still isn’t particularly nice to her and wants to only care about her as a key because he thinks that if he actually let her close, he would just be a danger to her, and he thinks she’s better off not knowing him, and he thinks he’s better off trying again with the one girl who didn’t die.
you make a good point of jacks being willing to go back in time for tella no matter the consequences! i think the difference is that he’d be originally going back in time for the idea of love instead of tella herself, to get something he wants instead of for her happiness, but he’s grown to value evangeline over all of his previous plans and something he desperately wants. this is why people (including me) talk about it! him having grown to really care for evangeline and put her first is highlighted a lot in ACFTL (though he doesn’t always go about it in the best way there, still making some stupid decisions, but that’s another conversation for another day haha).
sorry the post ended up so long! this is just my thoughts on the topic and some thoughts on why the fandom talks about him as we do - his thought process doesn’t necessarily justify how he acts sometimes, but this way it makes more sense to me, making the story about him growing to genuinely care for someone else and realizing the difference between obsession and love.
thank you again for your thoughts, i hope you have a good day! 💗
#this turned into a full on character analysis sorryyy#don’t get me wrong this man makes some idiotic decisions lmao#but he also kinda makes sense even if he isn’t always right#ouabh#acftl spoilers#tbona#acftl#jacks prince of hearts#evajacks#jacks x evangeline#tella dragna#caraval#answering asks
