What horny are you?
Do you think about her so often, it's disgusting? Or hate every inch of him but still wanna blow him? Or See her in a dress that clung to her body like a second skin and wonder 'why did the universe hate you'? Or hate him because you hate what the sight of him does to you? Or was there a wildness in you, of hope and terror, when he said his mother cannot see you?
you see, you must bite your gods. don't get yourself a god you can't bite. maybe some that you shouldn't, yes, but otherwise you ought to have gods you can bite. and bite.
and then you must know what you're biting them for and what you expect.
some gods you bite and they'll bite you back, which is good. some gods you bite and it'll sharpen your teeth, and that is good as well. some gods you bite and you'll devour them instead and that is good, as well, again.
some gods you bite and it's a reward, and some you'll bite as penance, some as communion, some as sex, some as simple curiosity. some you bite and they break your teeth or tame you, and you must ask yourself whether this is what you desire.
but you must bite your gods.
The are the same picture, oww
Okay, was anybody gonna tell me that The Cruel Prince Collector's Edition finally has photos? Or was I just supposed to find that out for myself while disassociating in the middle of my work day?
And YES I do believe that is Jude in the bloody coronation dress Cardan sent her that you are viewing on the end pages right there. :)
Has anyone else noticed this about Locke?
In The Stolen Heir, it's revealed that Oak is a Love Talker aka Gancanagh (a faerie who is able to quicken desire in both faeries and mortals and also seduce them just by word of mouth) because his mother, Liriope, was also one. This means that--because Oak and Locke share the same mother--Locke was most definitely also a Love Talker. This could explain why Taryn so easily betrayed Jude, her own twin sister, for Locke. It could also be the reason Nicasia suddenly cheated on Cardan with him. It was so easy for Locke to manipulate and seduce almost everyone around him because of this power of his. It could also explain why Cardan remained friends with him even after what he did.

How does aging in Fey Lands works?
Twins doesnt look kids amymore, similarly Vivi and Cardan. Does their look changes till some age and then stops? (I somehow imagined Madoc to look like middle age, but it could be just my not so focused reading.)
If I am correct, Jude and Taryn should live long if they are ij Fey Land?
Thanks π
hello again, nonnie!
the way i've always interpreted it is that any child raised in Faerie, no matter if they are human or fae, ages until "maturity", after which the aging process stops. for most humans, mental/physical maturity would peak at age 25. i'm not sure about those stats when it comes to the fae, but i assume it would be somewhere around there. the difference is, however, the fae don't have to be raised in Faerie to stop aging.
for a human who is brought to Faerie after they've already surpassed maturity, i assume they just stop aging at whatever age they are when they enter, and stay that age until they return to the mortal lands.
on twitter, Holly has confirmed that Jude and Taryn should indeed remain youthful for a very long time, so long as they remain in Elfhame. in the books, the same thing was mentioned, but with the added tidbit of "as soon as they step foot back in the mortal world, all the years will catch up to them immediately". this was all told according to conjecture, however.
and because there have not been many cases of humans remaining in Elfhame for extended periods of time before returning to the mortal world to compare, we shouldn't jump to believe the rumours floating around what we know to be a land full of prejudices against mortals.
as for Madoc, we don't really have a reference point for what a 2-decades-old red cap and a 2-centuries-old red cap look like side by side. so i'm not sure we'd be able to percieve how old Madoc looks based on our human beauty standards.
however, i've personally always thought of him as looking a little like Richard Coyle from The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (but with green skin, of course).
