The Fool In Fine Clothing C: Inspired By Ouzbek Patterns. Officialy A Wip But I Will In All Probability

I was honestly so surprised that I’ve only seen one fanart of this scene?? It feels like something that could’ve been drawn a hundred times.

I love Amber so much.

I keep thinking about how, out of all the different versions of the Fool, she’s the one who gets to be the most emotionally open: She’s young and in love with Fitz, she has literal telepathic conversations with him every day for fifteen years, she does all these “foolish” things like creating a new face for Paragon, dreaming about a child and a family with Fitz when they become older. Yeah, she only said it out loud once — when she was just happy to see an old friend — and after that, she always called Bee Fitz’s daughter. And she kept stopping herself every time she got too close to that weird line between "my dear more than friend" and "it reminds me of Molly". And through all of it, she stayed so painfully alone. It’s just… heartbreaking.

Fitz said he didn’t like her — I forget what exact word he used, but honestly, whatever it was, he could’ve said the same about the Fool in general if he wanted to. Sure, he’s the most charming person in the world, but he’s also a manipulator, if he needs to be somewhere, he’ll get there, even if it means hijacking a ship full of hostages.

/Speaking of old friends — and one more thing that absolutely broke me — the dragons, yeah, they’re total assholes, but the way the dragons of the Paragon completely ignored Amber? You were jealous, you considered her your friend, and she was your friend, bringing you silver and all… Funny how, after becoming dragons, you just forgot about her ?

//I rarely write long texts — I have to double-check everything I write in English to make sure it’s still readable. But I have so many thoughts

All that night, I cradled him in my arms, as closely as if he were my child or my lover. As closely as if he were my self, wounded and alone. I held him while he wept, and I held him after his weeping was done. I let him take whatever comfort he could in the warmth and strength of my body. I have never felt less of a man that I did so.

The King, the Bastard and the Fool

the scene in Royal Assassin where Fitz learns that King Shrewd, his grandfather, is gravely ill. the Fool is also there of course

king Shrewd's pose is inspired by Lear and Cordelia by John Everett Millais

The Fool’s winter motley (I have NO MEMORY of how it’s described so it’s probably totally wrong) for trisshawkeye. This was meant to be another fifteen-for-a-fiver sketch but I regret to say I got SERIOUSLY carried away and spent like four hours on it instead. I was meant to do other work tonight. Dammit.

And a few more pictures I made while rereading parts of the assassins quest

The jealous Starling was really amusing to me.
