Bronte And Fintan Forever

Bronte and Fintan forever

(Don't judge me, I got too lazy to add details)

@kale-of-the-forbidden-cities there I did it

you know

the way (some of) the fandom treats keefe vs fitz feeds into how they are treated in canon (or in my head, I don't even know anymore)

keefe isn't perfect, and he embraces it. he's reckless, messy, impulsive... and sometimes they're even some of the characteristics that people love about him.

he's allowed to mess up. he will be forgiven.

now fitz - he's presented as the perfect golden child. so any time he makes a mistake... people hate him for it. he's not allowed to mess up. if he's not being perfect, he's suddenly... the worst.

but at the SAME TIME. he's also "too perfect" and people hate him for that too.

pick a side!

i want to start off by specifying that this is HEADCANON/FANON. Don't come after me

imagine Fitz and Biana book 4 going to join the black swan, and they finally have a chance to be free, to do things without the feeling of pressure and eyes on them, until Della decides to come along, they're excited to have her with them at first, but then they realize it feels like she's just there to keep an eye on them and they can feel her constantly watching, looking over their shoulders, making small remarks about their little imperfections

Della cares about appearance just as much as alden, and her way of keeping Fitz and Biana in line is passive aggressive comments and humiliation

"Yes, biana's been doing her own makeup now, it's cute how she's trying so hard" (when Biana's a bit younger and just trying to find her own style)

"I know he looks like he's put on a bit of weight, but it is still Fitz!" (followed by a laugh) (talking to someone who hasnt seen fitz in a few years)

Alden wouldn't be the only manipulative parent. Della does tend to turn a blind eye, but she is part of the problem.

“Those poor boys”

“She deserves to be punished too.”

“I’m not saying I support rape, but-”

“Sorry to say - she deserved it.”

“She put herself in harm’s way”

“But if she was fingered, then that’s not rape.”

“She ruined their lives.”
