#vivienne cruel prince

[necromancer-at-abattoir]

We know that Vivienne, Jude and Taryn left when they were 10 years old-about the same time that Madoc courted and married Oriana.

Do you think that they left home because of this very reason? It's canon that they were worried about it, because Madoc might send them away, so it's a real possibility.

I wonder how he reacted when they ran away and then came back.

This is so Jurdan coded

Madoc looking at his 4 children

His adopted son, Oak with a excellent kill count. His foster daughters Jude (he wish he was there for her first kill for the bonding experience) and Taryn (he's so proud of her for killing her husband, so efficiently too).

And then there's his biological daughter Vivi... carrying Red Cap blood but has never killed anybody(My personal headcanon is that Vivi has accidentally run over a annoying fae in the mortal world but has not told Madoc because he'll cry from joy and that's not something she wants).

*in jail*

Cardan: so who should we call?

Oak: I dunno

Cardan: I’d call Jude but I feel safer in jail.

Oak: so you want me to call wren??

Cardan:

Oak:

Both: vivi it is.

i will never shut up about how the duarte sisters are ALL so 'family line' by conan gray coded omg

My father never talked a lot, He just took a walk around the block 'Til all his anger took a hold of him and then he'd hit - is basically madoc

My mother never cried a lot She took the punches, but she never fought 'Til she said, "I'm leaving, and I'll take the kids" so she did - EVA DUARTE

Scattered 'cross my family line I'm so good at telling lies, That came from my mother's side - Jude and Taryn can both lie because they are mortals like their mom

God, I have my father's eyes, but my sister's when I cry i can run, but I can't hide from my family line - the eyes part can be applicable to both Jude and Vivi tbh because Jude comes to a realisation later in the books that she became just like madoc bc of his training, 'eyes are the windows to soul' after all, but in a more physical senses, Vivi has her dad's eyes.

Its hard to put it into words how the holidays will always hurt, i watch the fathers with their little girls, and wonder what I did to deserve this - Jude, Vivi and Taryn not coming terms with the fact that their dad Justin is gone forever.

How could you hurt a little kid?I can't forget, I can't forgive you, cause now I'm scared that everyone I love will leave me - VIVIENNE DUARTEE

Oh, all that I did to try to undo It all of my pain and all your excuses i was a kid but I wasn't clueless (Someone who loves you wouldn't do this)All of my past, I tried to erase It but now I see, would I even change it? - Jude having a traumatic past but also mentioned that without it, she wouldn't have been as strong as she was

Might share a face and share a last name, but(We are not the same) - Taryn and Jude on their differences as twins

[bookaddictedrose]

Who's that girl from Corpse Bride, the blue one? Cause she kinda reminds me of Suren.

Edit: her name's emily and I actually just found an amazing corpse bride x stolen heir fanart. It appears that somebody agrees with me. Huh.

TELL ME YOU DON'T SEE IT I DARE YOU

(Jurdan HC)

At some point during winter they visit Vivi and Heather in the human world. They are outside in a park and Jude laughs and Cardan accidentally makes all the plants grow. Scientists tried for years to figure out what happened. Vivi found it hilarious.

Vivienne Duarte short analysis

So, we talk about Vivienne not being there for her sisters in Elfhame and letting them get bullied by the other children of the Gentry, but I raise you this-

Vivienne WANTED to go back to the human realm, but Jude and Taryn wanted to stay in Elfhame, and when they were actually able to finally go to the human realm, Jude and Taryn hated it and wanted to go back, which broke Vivi's heart and immensely saddened her, because have we ever considered what Vivienne wanted?

Jude also recalled how angry Vivienne was when she and Taryn finally 'gave in' to Elfhame. I think that Vivienne thought that by choosing Elfhame, Jude and Taryn didn't just choose its perquisites, but also its perils, so one side of her mind decided that she didn't need to protect them so that they could learn a lesson. The other side of her, however, felt guilty that she wasn't protecting them, so she stayed for them. And so this cycle continued-angry one day, guilty the next. Just a theory of mine.

"I get why he chose her. I just wish she would have chose me."

As a twin, i felt Jude's pain.

IT IS HAPPENING PPL !!!!!!????

Holly Black confirmed that she’ll release a sequel of the folk of the air series (potentially of Carden’s PoV) now as oak’s duology is over !!!

(I am saying this from the perspective of people visiting her book signing event wherein she agreed to one of the reader asking her abt this!!!)

(I’m believing this rumour to be true on the basis of the ig fandom’s PoV as I got the news from there- though I would be very much heartbroken if it is false😭)

OUR MANIFESTING WORKED !!!???

[ivycrestfell]

i think it’s really bittersweet that madoc didn’t tell Jude and Taryn and vivi that their mother and father knew each other in elfhame.

Jude was surprised to hear that Justin was ever in elfhame. (I love how she thinks it’s normal for human fathers to have a forge in their backyard)

He allowed them to believe that eva and Justin were (mostly) innocent, that their deaths were unprovoked. Though in madocs eyes of course they weren’t, but he didn’t want them to think lesser of their mother and father for being unloyal, thieves, murderers, and arsonists lol.

on the other hand, he may have just done so to shield himself from the shame that his wife left with his blacksmith.

but in a world where taking lovers isn’t frowned upon, the more the merrier and whatnot when it comes to relationships, i doubt it. Though of course having lovers is different from marrying your husbands blacksmith and faking your death (and taking his baby) is another story.

Also I’m surprised no one told Jude and Taryn and vivi about it. Especially vivienne. I feel like she could’ve known, and maybe kept it from Jude and Taryn? She had some friends in elfhame, and i suspect, the way she dwelled on her memories of their family and the mortal world, that she asked anyone about her mother.

Anyway idk feel free to add on 🫶
