#vasya and morozko

[magicalbookwyvern]

Me every time a scrawny disheveled heroine with dirt under her fingernails and magic in her blood and a guy that is not entirely human and looks so pale he might be dying are forced to form an alliance:

[elssiie]

"I am a witch, " said Vasya. "I have plucked snowdrops at Midwinter, died at my own choosing, and wept for a Nightingale. Now I am beyond prophecy. "

[darklinaforever]

The fact that some of my favorite ships have this trope of one immortal who will inevitably survive the other...

We just had our first decent cold front in Florida this past week, and the cravings for my wintery read list sky rocketed. I still haven't found a genre I love more than a strong-headed MC going toe-to-toe with and 'conquering' a demon of legend. Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik and the Winternight Trilogy by Katherine Arden top this list for me. 

Here, Morozko and Vasya are finally catching each other at the peak of their own character arcs and very slow burn dance, while the world is burning around them.

Highly recommend the audiobook for Kathleen Gati's immersive narration! Prints of this available in my bio link!

"We shall wed her to MOROZKO, the lord of winter. Can any maiden ask for a finer or richer bridegroom? Why, he is master of the white snow, the black firs, and the silver frost! [...] Some say he is naught but a cold, crackling breeze whispering among the firs. Others say he is an old man in a sledge, with bright eyes and cold hands. Others say he is like a warrior in his prime, but robed all in white, with weapons of ice. No one knows." The cold man—the frost-demon—stood in the center of the room, and at least she could look at him. His dark, unruly hair hung to his shoulders. The sardonic face might have belonged to a youth of twenty or a warrior of fifty. Unlike every other man Vasya had ever seen, he was clean-shaven—perhaps that was what gave his face the odd note of youthfulness. Certainly his eyes were old. When she looked into them, she thought, I did not know anything could be that old and live. (x,x)

“I am a witch,” said Vasya. Blood was running down her hand now, spoiling her grip. “I have plucked snowdrops at Midwinter, died at my own choosing, and wept for a nightingale. Now I am beyond prophecy.”

[animezinglife]

Pyotr: Vasya needs to be married so she will be safe from the frost-demon, death god Winter King seeking a mortal maiden.

Olga: Vasya needs to be married to save her soul!

Sasha: Vasya, please...

Vasya [returning to them after f*cking the life and memories back into the death god everyone's trying to save her from with said death god in tow]:

[phishyie]

Think of all the horrors that I promised you I'd bring

I promise you, they'll sing of every time

You passed your fingers through my hair and called me child

Witness me, old man, I am the wild

[mavensravens]

We’re in Love by Boygenius and The Bear and the Nightingale series has almost identical parallels and I felt it so deep within me it hurt
