I luv u
***Iron Flame SPOILERS****
I am so incredibly disappointed with what everyone is choosing to talk about with this book. Everyone is concentrating on what happens with Xaden but you know what to me was the absolute most gut wrenching storyline in the whole book? General Lilith Fucking Sorrengail.
From the moment we see her again in the beginning of the book she is nothing but supportive and proud of her daughter. Yes, she absolutely made the wrong decision where she stands in the war, and what she did to Xaden was absolutely inexcusable. (Although I do think if she hadn’t done that they would have killed all the marked ones.) But she made all those decisions for her children. Because she did what she needed to to keep them safe. You can’t convince me that even after Violet leaves, that even after Mira leaves, that she wasn’t incredibly thankful for the fact they were together and with Xaden who would never let something happen to Violet.
Lilith went into the dungeons to get her daughter out of there and I am not unconvinced that had Violet not already been mid rescue the General wouldn’t have turned traitor right there to get her out. The scene when Brennen reveals himself to her?? She’s cracking and can hardly hold herself together and my heart felt so sorry for her in that moment. It made me mad at Brennan because he threw it in her face like ammo when Violet spent all of fourth wing describing how his death ruined their mother.
One of the most heart breaking quotes in the whole book is at the beginning of chapter 65:
“Most generals dream of dying in service to their kingdom. But you know me better than that, my love. When I fall, it will be for one reason only: to protect our children.”
General Sorrengail didn’t support the war, she didn’t fight for Navarre she made it clear fron the beginning that she was just a mom protecting her kids, and she did so without second thought. Without hesitation. She didn’t do what she did for the war effort, or even to help everyone on the battlefield. She did it for Brennen, and Violet, and Mira.
Lilith Sorrengail was just a desperate mother and everyone glossing over her sacrifice is bullshit.
Will: So, all of it, was an act? Cordelia will not be my daughter-in-law?
James: Yes. We're sorry-
Will: Just... give me a minute.
Will: *walks to the city of bones screaming and crying and then collapses in Jem's arms*
Awwwwww, Bruh this is so cute!
made a tiny picture book for class. i wanted to challenge the idea that girls loving other girls is somehow adult/inappropriate
Lmao yes very much
i hope everyone with acne, eczema, vitiligo, psoriasis, dermatitis, and skin conditions have a good day today
One thing I don’t think the Fourth Wing fandom seems to acknowledge or appreciate enough is just how quickly Sawyer is willing to kill anyone who slights Violet
Jack comes back? “We should kill him again”
Cat’s still being rude? “We could bury her and nobody would find her”
Rhiannon & Ridoc will shut their ass down verbally & physically, but Sawyer will jump straight to murder lmao and I love that for him
I just want to bring this back because i have so much love for Rhys and Feyre and i wish we could go back to a time when this fandom wasn’t so hateful and it belonged to the people who love its characters as much as i do.
(P. S. i don’t know if this account still has the same name, i saw this on Pinterest. If it has a different name now feel free to comment it.)
❤️
what do you feel about the vengance saga?
Thank you for asking! It’s absolutely phenomenal. Poseidon is my favourite god and like all blorbos nothing brings me more joy than watching him get used like a stress ball.
Go off king. Six hundred strike has definitely bumped up to my favourite song thus far. Oh, and the quip from Odysseus at the end? “Next to my wife” I lose my mind every time I hear it. So 🔥🔥🔥
(Moving version lmao)
love the empyrean series, ACOTAR, TSC, Mauraders ect.
