Those Poor Boys

“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.”

never getting over Sophie just letting Alvar go in that tower scene in Legacy right before the fitzphie break up. (Keefe might have been there too- i don't remember- which makes it a million times worse.)

like in what world was that her choice to make? Idc if the guy looked like death- that's not her son, or her brother, and the entire decision was just beyond stupid. ??? that's a known terrorist, who might have taken part in torturing you and Dex in book one?? that's your boyfriend's brother?? like you cannot be serious.

sure, Alvar might have crawled away to die, but to not tell his parents? to not give his family some closure? a body to bury??

that alone is a bigger reason for Fitz to break up with her than matchmaking by a landslide.

Della and Biana!

Maybe I should post my art on here more

IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE

maybe the reason Fitz is prone to violence is because he was desensitized to it in the forbidden cities, from a youngish age

does anyone else have that one character. that no matter how often you draw them they end up looking completely different than the last time you drew them !!?!

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!
