The Traitor Baru Cormorant by Seth Dickinson-

The Empire of Masks is coming, armed with coin and ink, doctrine and compass, soap and lies. They'll conquer Baru’s island, rewrite her culture, criminalize her customs, and dispose of one of her fathers. But Baru is patient. She'll swallow her hate, prove her talent, and join the Masquerade. She will learn the secrets of empire. She’ll be exactly what they need. And she'll claw her way high enough up the rungs of power to set her people free.

In a final test of her loyalty, the Masquerade will send Baru to bring order to distant Aurdwynn, a snakepit of rebels, informants, and seditious dukes. Aurdwynn kills everyone who tries to rule it. To survive, Baru will need to untangle this land’s intricate web of treachery - and conceal her attraction to the dangerously fascinating Duchess Tain Hu.

But Baru is a savant in games of power, as ruthless in her tactics as she is fixated on her goals. In the calculus of her schemes, all ledgers must be balanced, and the price of liberation paid in full.

She Who Became The Sun by Shelley Parker-Chan-

In a famine-stricken village on a dusty yellow plain, two children are given two fates. A boy, greatness. A girl, nothingness…

In 1345, China lies under harsh Mongol rule. For the starving peasants of the Central Plains, greatness is something found only in stories. When the Zhu family’s eighth-born son, Zhu Chongba, is given a fate of greatness, everyone is mystified as to how it will come to pass. The fate of nothingness received by the family’s clever and capable second daughter, on the other hand, is only as expected.

When a bandit attack orphans the two children, though, it is Zhu Chongba who succumbs to despair and dies. Desperate to escape her own fated death, the girl uses her brother's identity to enter a monastery as a young male novice. There, propelled by her burning desire to survive, Zhu learns she is capable of doing whatever it takes, no matter how callous, to stay hidden from her fate.

After her sanctuary is destroyed for supporting the rebellion against Mongol rule, Zhu uses the chance to claim another future altogether: her brother's abandoned greatness.

honestly? honestly i never got over them writing the most tragic and gutwrenching arc for sleeping warrior where aurora reveals her pregnancy just as mulan is about to confess her feelings, leading to her going on the run with the the merry men because she can’t watch the woman she loves love someone else, only for them to give her yet another sapphic storyline where she trains merida to fight and the two of them then go on to join ruby in a throuple and not a single one of them were endgame. what the fuck!

Fireheart Tiger by Aliette de Bodard

Quiet, thoughtful princess Thanh was sent away as a hostage to the powerful faraway country of Ephteria as a child. Now she’s returned to her mother’s imperial court, haunted not only by memories of her first romance, but by worrying magical echoes of a fire that devastated Ephteria’s royal palace.

Thanh’s new role as a diplomat places her once again in the path of her first love, the powerful and magnetic Eldris of Ephteria, who knows exactly what she wants: romance from Thanh and much more from Thanh’s home. Eldris won’t take no for an answer, on either front. But the fire that burned down one palace is tempting Thanh with the possibility of making her own dangerous decisions.

you guys need to stop

My mom's favourite Disney movie is Mulan. She loved it so much that she had the blue-ray dvd's for the original and the sequel a little while after.

When I was a kid she would play that movie so much that by the time I was six I knew every line pretty accurately. I loved the songs so much I'd sing them out of nowhere.

I still do it sometimes.

I remember one song always confused me as a kid and I now realize i was just a idiot. So it's the song where the guys are talking about there idea of the perfect "girl worth fighting for", but when heard the song I thought they were singing, "A GIRL IN FIGHTING FORM" and I would always got confused cuz the women they would describe didn't sound anything like that. It would piss little me off cuz to me their (and my) perfect woman is Mulan but she can't show off her feminine fighting form or she'll die.

[burntcheerio]

at this point when the girl i like posts something "i want what they have" (this time referring to branch and poppy) my first thought is boohoo we could have that but nooooo you just had to call off our date...massive L for you tbh

yes i still like her dont judge me

anyway since gen alpha are so obsessed with rizzing people up they should teach me how to get this girl

[lavend3r-stardust]

If your favorite disney princess growing up was Mulan, there's a 10000000000% chance that you're queer now :P just saying
