The bi rep in this book is just *chef's kiss*

I was fine but then Evelyn Hugo decided to say "Please never forget that the sun rises and sets with your smile. At least to me it does. You’re the only thing on this planet worth worshipping." And now I'm very much not fine :)

Somewhere between thinking of Beth as "the middle sister who dies, what about her?" to "the nice one, the one who wants everyone to be happy", Evelyn Hugo fell in love with Celia St James.

Book quotes that made me believe in love again~ part 2, because these are all so adorable I just couldn't fit them into one post<3

•He pushed, simply because he damn well couldn’t stop himself,

“And what do you deserve?” A slow smile, indeed a plains-cat readying for the kill. Then, “Certainly more than a bastard-born nobody.”

~Nesta my queen letting her romantic side show for a second :') so vulnerable. Huh? What? Unresolved trauma? No- this is 100/10 romance bb

•"You don’t even know what you’re saying,” Kenji tells him. “You’re acting crazy—”

“I was happier,” Adam says, “when I thought she was dead.”

“You, of all people,” Adam says to me. He looks so disgusted. “I trusted you—told you things I never should’ve told you— I can’t believe you’d do this to me. That you’d fall for him. What the hell is wrong with you?” he demands, his voice rising in pitch. “How sick in the head do you have to be?”

~Adam Kent to his girlfriend<3 fights can be so sexy. especially when a guy calls his girlfriend fucked in the head uwu. every girl's dream :))wishing she was dead aaahhh love is love okay.

•His growls of pleasure filled the tent, drowning out the distant cries of the injured and dying. Life and death—hovering so close, whispering in our ears.

And I hoped that this shard of life we offered up, this undimming light between us, would drive death a bit further away. At least for another day.

~feysand my fav power couple. getting down and dirty in a battlefield like the rulers they are. What? oh no not fighting for their homeland no no that's for basic bitches<33 romantics do seggsy time in battles ;) it's called feminism okay look it up

•“You care for me,” Will said. His voice was cool and sure. “And you know that I admire you, the way that all women know when a man admires them. Now you have come to tell me you will be here, available to me, for as long as I might wish it. I am offering you what I thought you wanted.”

“You cannot mean that.”

“And you cannot have imagined I meant anything more,” Will said. “There is no future for a Shadowhunter who dallies with warlocks. One might befriend them, employ them, but not …”

~will my bestie offering the girl he loves to be his whore<3 unusual but I don't kink shame here :) spread loveee,hashtag speaking from the heart

•"Hear my judgment,” Cardan says, authority ringing in his voice. “I hereafter exile Jude Duarte to the mortal world until such time as she is pardoned by the crown. Until then, let her not step one foot in Faerie or forfeit her life.”

I gasp. “But you can’t do that!”

He looks at me for a long moment, but his gaze is mild, as though he’s expecting me to be fine with exile. As though I am nothing at all. “Of course I can,” he replies.

“But I’m the Queen of Faerie,” I shout, and for a moment, there is silence.

Then everyone around me begins to laugh.

“Deny it then,” I yell. “Deny me!”

He cannot, of course, so he does not.

~cardan my fairie romeo sweeping Jude off her feet by exiling her<3 *I think I've seeeenn this film beforeeee* he really thought he showed some huge ass ravenclaw energy here :) who said long distance can't be steamy?

•“I lied,” he said. “Demons lie, Clary. You know, there are some kinds of wounds you can get when you’re a Shadowhunter—internal injuries from demon poison. You don’t even know what’s wrong with you, but you’re bleeding to death slowly inside. That’s what it’s like, just being your brother.”

“But Aline—”

“I had to try. And I did.” His voice was lifeless. “But God knows, I don’t want anyone but you. I don’t even want to want anyone but you.”

Clary’s voice had sunk to a whisper. “I don’t want anyone but you, either.”

~awww this is like the new "being your friend isn't enough",, brotherly love<3 okay friends to lovers enemies to lovers WHAT ABOUT SIBLINGS TO LOVERS HUHHH

•"You—Reid, you also made an oath to me. You’re my husband, and I’m your wife.”

His hands dropped to his sides. Defeated. A spark of hope flared in my chest. But then he closed his eyes—seeming to collapse in on himself—and when he opened them again, they were void of all emotion. Empty. Dead.

“You are not my wife.”

What was left of my heart shattered completely.

~Reid my new bff being loyal to his religion and telling Lou that she's not his wife :') so pure. true love 101. *so there you go-o can't make a wife outta a WITCH* his mentor is the hot priest from fleabag<3 "you love me? It'll pass<3"

•“Why don’t I give you the lashing you deserve?”

He looked so dead set on it that she blinked. “If you ever take a whip to me, I will skin you alive.” Rowan paused his stalking. “You’re worthless.”

“Tell me something I don’t know.”

He went on, “You would probably have been more useful to the world if you’d actually died ten years ago.”

She just looked him in the eye and said, “I’m leaving.”

~ughhh what is it with men's dirty talk being "I wish you were dead" it's so poetic :') again, bird love confessions are...unique, so cut rowan some slack. also threatening to whip her kinkyyyy<333

•Juliette supposed it was her turn to walk away. The lover and the liar, the liar and the lover. They switched those roles between themselves like it was a game.

“I tell the truth,” Juliette said again. Each word was a blade that sliced through her tongue, cutting her twice as deep as the harm she put out into the world. “Wake up. This entire dalliance between us has been an extraction of information.”

“Juliette, don’t say such—”

~Juliette and Roma spending the whole book pining over each other and confessing their feelings, to reach this end. because love<333

•“Don’t worry, tracker. You’ll know when our deal is up.” He shoved me belowdecks, but not before I heard his parting words to Mal—“I’ll be certain you hear it when I make her scream.”

~love triangles can be sooo beautiful especially when you've been kidnapped by one of the guys and the other has the personality of a wet towel<33 but love is love so-

I HATE-

no. we're getting the 10 minute version of all too well in about a hundred days.

I'M DONE HATING. TODAY IS ✨LOVE✨

thinking about how AARON. ALWAYS. FELL. IN. LOVE. WITH. HER. every single time.

Okay apparently Tessa didn't lose her powers but I was super pissed while writing this so we're going with it<3

Things I wanna see less in fantasy~

Female protagonists having the best character arcs and personal growth only to lose their powers for the "greater good". Like? Let them be happy WITH POWERS?? ALINA'S LIGHT??? AELIN'S FIRE???? NESTA'S DEATH MAGIC??? TESSA'S SHAPE-SHIFTING??

Book quotes that made me believe in love again<3

•His lips come too close. “But I love you.”

“No you don’t.”

His eyes close. He leans his forehead against mine. “You have no idea what you do to me.”

“I hate you.”

He shakes his head very slowly. Dips down. His nose brushes the nape of my neck and I stifle a horrified shiver that he misunderstands. “God I’d love to just take a bite out of you.”

~Aaron Warner to Juliette in shatter me. He then proceeded to kiss her because love<3

•“You're my sister," he said finally. "My sister, my blood, my family. I should want to protect you"—he laughed soundlessly without any humor—"to protect you from the sort of boys who want to do with you exactly what I want to do."

~Jace Herondale to Clary Fray,, love between siblings is so rare these days :')

•“I do so prefer hand-to-hand combat with you,” he said, catching my other wrist when I swung my fist down. “I like how close it brings us, Princess.”

I shrieked my frustration—my irritation—at him. At myself. “There is something so wrong with you!”

“Probably, but you know what?” He lifted his head off the ground. “That’s the part you like the most.”

~Casteel telling Poppy that he's getting turned on while she's trying to kill him. Who said romance is dead?

•“When you lick me,” he said roughly, “I want to be alone—far away from everyone. Because when you lick me, Feyre,” he said, pressing nipping kisses to my jaw, my neck, “I’m going to let myself roar loud enough to bring down a mountain.”

“And when I lick you,” he said, sliding his arms around me and tucking me in tight to him, “I want you splayed out on a table like my own personal feast.”

~my personal fav. Rhysand comparing his wife to food,, the same food that he gives her a choice in eating<33 100/10 love it. Mates 4 life.

•"There is nothing that I can give you. Nothing I want to give you. You are not owed an explanation for what I do outside of training. I don’t care what you have been through or what you want to do with your life. The sooner you can sort out your whining and self-pity, the sooner I can be rid of you. You are nothing to me, and I do not care.”

~Rowan to Aelin while she's desperately looking for a friend. Awwww do birds say different stuff to the people they like? Love to see the representation<3

•James," she said. "You don't love me."

He rose to his feet. He was no longer kneeling, and she was glad for it, but he was still close to her-- so close to her she could have reached out and set her palm against his chest.

"No," he said. "I don't."

She knew that. Hearing him say it still felt like a blow, unexpected and shocking, like the moment when you were stabbed. The surprise was how much it hurt.”

~James to cordelia,, such a beautiful scene. 1000/10 love it<333

•“There will be nothing left,” I whispered.

“No,” he said gently as he folded me in his arms. He pressed a kiss to the top of my hair. “I will strip away all that you know, all that you love, until you have no shelter but me.”

~Aleks tryna get the girl by murdering everyone she knows :')) play lover by Taylor swift<3

•"Did you . . ." Luke coughed and his lips glistened red. "Did you love me?"

Annabeth wiped her tears away. "There was a time I thought . . . well, I thought . . ."

"You were like a brother to me, Luke," she said softly. "But I didn't love you."

He nodded, as if he'd expected it. He winced in pain.

~My boy Luke flirting with a 16 year old while bleeding to death :)) he's the definition of dedication. Spoiler- he doesn't get the girl.

•“You came back for me.”

“I protect my investments.” Investments.

“I’m glad I’m bleeding all over your shirt.”

~Kazzle Dazzle calling the girl he likes an investment. Guys take notes<3

OH MY GOD HEAR THAT,, THAT'S THE SOUND OF MY HEART SHATTERING.

You’ve heard of kanej death trope but what about WESPER DEATH TROPE- Wylan dies BEFORE JESPER because he’s not grisha,, but that would still be a peaceful death-

But what if he dies in a heist that he didn’t wanna go on, but he went for Jesper, and got shot. There’s blood everywhere and even Kaz is beginning to panic. Jesper keeps trying to use his powers to get the bullet out but he’s not skilled enough to. So Wylan dies in his arms, Inej cries and prays and wishes Nina were there to save him, Kaz blinks back tears and thinks “I never thought I’d have to bury one of my own”. Jesper blames himself forever and distances himself from kaz. The crows fall apart.

Many years later Kanej have a kid and name him wylan.

SOMEONE PUT THIS INTO BETTER WORDS-

I love it when characters say "Please don't punch me for this" or "Live long enough to hate me for this" before kissing their love interest IT'S THE SUPERIOR ENEMIES TO LOVERS TROPE

It's been one year since folklore was released besties! Here are some things I felt when I first listened to it<3 (yes I wrote this exactly a year ago)

Living in a tiny cottage covered in vines and flowers, filled with warmth and coziness. Sitting beside the crackling fire with a book whose pages lost their color years ago, but never did its words lose their beauty. Or living in an enormous, gothic castle, with mysterious owners and libraries and secret passages, some of which remain undiscovered.

The thing about these stories is that regardless of how long ago or by whom they were written, it's incredibly fascinating to see how hundreds of years ago, people loved the same way, dreamt the same way and regretted their choices the same way they do now. They too longed to be a part of something bigger. It's to feel nostalgic about an experience that you've only ever had in your imagination. To look at the raindrops on your window and wish you hadn't messed up. Wish you hadn't broken the hug just as quick. Wish you had payed more attention to the words that were never said.

It's to crave adventure, yet need peace. It's the feeling you get when you find an old picture that you don't recall taking, or while watching a movie that seems so magical that for a moment, just for a moment, you forget about all those wounds that time could never heal.

To grow up in a small town and fall in love in highschool, only to move to a big city where no one knows your name, where you lose the numbers of people who promised to choose your wedding dress. To live in a tiny apartment overlooking the Eiffel tower, making art that no one will ever know exists, drinking tea that lost it's warmth when you weren't looking, much like your heart.

To time changing the colour of leaves, but not their mind. To being a hopeless romantic, yet never having fallen in love before. To wanting to be different, yet not knowing how to change. To getting lost in the woods, thinking that you found your way out, only to realise that you never did. To being called crazy.

Please don't ever stop believing in magic in a world filled with fear, uncertainty and loneliness .♡

I love it when dark, brooding and sadistic fictional guys have a soft spot for fashion.

Clary Fairchild's favourite Taylor Swift song is Call it what you want because she too, trusts her lover like a brother :)

Okay so before I start pretending that the finale doesn't exist,, let me jut say that the last scene was Loki cried because of Sylvie's betrayal,, AND THEN RAN WITH SOME HOPE LEFT IN HIS HEART BECAUSE AT LEAST HE HAD A FRIEND IN MOBIUS,,,, BUT THEN HE LOST HIM TOO??? WHA-

I was using Loki as my coping mechanism NOW IT'S GIVEN ME MORE REASONS TO CRY-

I feel like Loki does have true feelings for Sylvie and she doesn't reciprocate them??( or she thinks of him as a friend at best ) Because he thinks that the only person who will ever trust him is himself/ a version of himself,, but when Sylvie pushes him through the portal thing she clearly says "I'm not you." And Loki kind of figures it out that they're not meant to be since they'll never truly trust each other- "Because you cannot trust and I cannot be trusted" was sort of an epiphany more than an accusation?

Even though I'm still rooting for Lokius, I think it'll be interesting to see if Loki x Sylvie work it out? They could have a complex relationship dynamic for sure. ANYWAYS SYLVIE SWEETIE WHAT DID YOU JUST DO-

Marvel managed to deprive Loki of his first true friend and first crush at the same time. hAhA pAiN.

(I'm not gonna specify who's who so you get to decide :))

Inej Ghafa is listening to Renegade by Taylor Swift.

Yess totallyyy. SylviexLoki as bffs would've been so crazy and awesome<33

"YOU LIKE HER, DOES SHE LIKE YOUUU???? BOTH OF ARE SWOONING OVER EACH OTHER -_- "

mobius my man you're making your feelings prettyyy obvious here ngl

Marvel sweetie you didn't have to take the "when pride month is over, gay people will disappear" thing too far<3

"YOU LIKE HER, DOES SHE LIKE YOUUU???? BOTH OF ARE SWOONING OVER EACH OTHER -_- "

mobius my man you're making your feelings prettyyy obvious here ngl

friendly reminder that the god of mischief, Loki Laufeyson SMILED WHEN MOBIUS TOLD HIM THAT HE COULD BE WHOEVER HE WANTED, EVEN SOMEONE GOOD.

Does your brain ever just go "Sorry. Er. I was just. Cornettos.”

Happy pride month to Loki and only Loki<33

Good morning I am still not over that Loki is the first major character in the MCU to be confirmed canonically queer on screen.

NOTHING TRUER WAS SAID

Darklina is such a beautiful relationship, such an arresting one. The chemistry, the spiritual connection, the love and passion and power and understanding. The darkness to the light. The king to the queen. An eclipse representative of self actualization and equal and opposite principles, two people made powerless by the world coming into their own. Two lonely souls finding strength and a home in each other. A bond of mind and soul and heart, a breathtaking union.

It’s a compelling relationship and a stunning one. When I think of Darklina I think of a starry night sky. A boy afraid of the dark discovering sunlight. A girl ostracized by the world discovering acceptance. I think of the yin and yang. The concept yǒu yuán wú fèn. Soulmates destined for each other in every universe and every world, and yet tragically unable to connect in this one because they met too late. I think of harmony and I think of the chance for true understanding. I think of finding safety in the only other person in the world who will truly know you, an eternity with the one you love. I think of something transcendental and always.

I think Darklina is an amazing ship, and I think it’s worth examining and engaging with and loving, because it means so much more than people give it credit, and it’s fans love it for so many complex and inspiring reasons.

Malina is such a soft relationship, such a charming one. The history, the longing, the care and consideration and dedication and loyalty and love and sacrifice. The foundation of friendship and tenderness, of reaching for each other, meeting in the middle. Always holding hands, cradling pieces of each other’s souls, each other’s memories. Always inviting, never taking. Always searching, never hunting. The pining and adoration and want.

It’s a captivating relationship and a kind one. When I think of Malina I don’t think of a meadow, I don’t think of their scars. I think of the stag - Alina’s stag - who’s song Mal could hear. I think of how quickly he volunteered to go find it, how easily he recognized her drawing and knew the story behind her dreams. I think of them running together, side by side. I think of the warmth in their smiles, their joy at first seeing each other after time apart. I think of the sacrifices they’ve made to keep each other alive, always willing to give everything. I think of summer and a cool breeze. Of two children shunned by society finding solace and safety in each other. I think of something solid and supportive.

I think Malina is an amazing ship, and I think it’s worth exploring and finding comfort in and loving, because it has so many beautiful meanings and it’s fans love it for such dynamic and moving reasons.

“Charlotte,” Consul Wayland said again, “you know what your father always said about losing your temper.”

“He did say that. He also said that he should have had a son,” Charlotte replied bitterly. “If he had—if I were a man—would you have treated me as you just did?”

~Charlotte Fairchild being a boss bitch and fighting sexism since 1878

Kanej as Taylor Swift songs~

•Cowboy like me

"I've got some tricks up my sleeve, takes one to know one."

"You're a cowboy like me, never wanted love, just a fancy car."

"Perched in the dark, telling all the rich folks anything they wanna hear."

"You're a bandit like me, eyes full of stars. Hustling for the good life, never thought I'd meet you here."

"And the skeletons in both our closets plotted hard to mess this up."

"Forever is the sweetest con."

"And I'm never gonna love again."

•Treacherous

"Put your lips close to mine, as long as they don't touch."

"And I'll do anything you say, if you say it with your hands."

"This path is reckless, this slope is treacherous. I like it."

"Your name has echoed through my mind, and I just think you should, think you should know."

"Nothing safe is worth the drive, and I will follow you, follow you home."

•Willow

"Rough on the surface but you cut through like a knife."

"The more that you say, the less I know. Wherever you stray, I follow."

"I'm begging for you to take my hand."

"Head on the pillow, I could feel you sneaking in, as if you were a mythical thing."

"Wait for the signal, and I'll meet you after dark. Show me the places where the others gave you scars.

•State of grace

"And I never saw you coming, and I'll never be the same."

"You come around and the armor falls."

"So you were never a saint, and I've loved in shades of wrong."

"We learn to live with the pain, mosaic broken hearts."

"This is the worthwhile fight. Love is a ruthless game, unless you play it good and right."

"These are the hands of faith, you're my Achilles heel."

•Peace

"I never had the courage of my convictions, as long as danger is near."

"And it's just around the corner darling, 'cause it lives in me. No, I could never give you peace."

"All these people think love's for show, but I die for you in secret."

"The devil's in the details, but you got a friend in me."

"It's like I'm wasting your honour."

"Give you the silence that only comes when two people understand each other."

"I'd give you my sunshine, give you my best. But the rain is always gonna come, when you're standing with me."

"Would it be enough, if I could never give you peace?"

•Untouchable

"Untouchable like a distant diamond sky. I'm reaching out and I just can't tell you why."

"And when you're close, I feel like coming undone."

"You gotta come on, come on. Say that we'll be together."

•Jump then fall

"I realise your laugh is the best sound I have ever heard."

"I like the way I can't keep my focus. I watch you talk, you didn't notice."

"Don't be afraid to jump then fall, jump then fall into me."

"When people say things that bring you to your knees, I'll catch you."

•Mirrorball

"Hush, I know they said the end is near, but I'm still on my tallest tiptoes."

"I'm a mirrorball, I can change everything about me to fit in."

"I'm still on that tightrope, I'm still trying everything to keep you looking at me."

"I'm still a believer, but I don't know why. I've never been a natural, all I do is try, try, try."
