When they were on the road trip to the crossroads lounge, selwyn insisting on driving and acting like this annoyed parent (HE WAS LITERALLY DESCRIBED AS AN ANNOYED PARENT) is GOLD

I think it’s really easy to dislike Sel as a Edgy Emo Boy trope if you take him too seriously instead of just looking at him like the goofy ass kid he is. Allow me to do you this service.

Reasons Selwyn Kane is objectively silly:

- Wears all black all the time. He is a Merlin but he does not have to do this. This is a conscious choice. If his hair wasn’t naturally black he would dye it, I know this to be true.

- Rips trees out of the ground when he’s angry. I understand this can look stupid if you take it seriously, but it’s actually just hilarious.

- Plays the violin. This is obviously a normal thing to do, but in combination with The Way He Is it’s like. Yeah okay naturally that’s his instrument

- Classics major. Exact same thing as above.

- Does not use people’s nicknames even if that’s what everyone else calls them. He’s simply Too Formal (19 years old)

- Does the last 3 things I mentioned, but still goes out of his way to make fun of Bree for not smoking weed, because he is simply So Cool.

Ignore that I’m a complete ball of anxiety that can’t stop fidgeting, I BREATHED HER AIR.

im currently performing a demon summoning ritual to manifest breesel for oathbound wish me luck

Fr the love triangle in legendborn is fun and full of drama but its secondary plot. Literally the entirety of Bree stands for rebellion, ancestry, powerfulness and acceptance

(and more! But descriptive words are running from me!)

She also stands for finding your place, being worthy even though you're the only one or the 'first' one (literally what Tracy Deonn said)

(love u queen Tracy)

Bree stands for power.

I mean, if yall were too absorbed by the romantic plot in the first two books i guess yall gonna get a reality check in the third where she's literally ISOLATED from them for a pretty long time loooool

blue: pjo mention red: legendborn cycle mention black: jst in general i honestly don't care much about the shipping portion of books. like, pjo; there are a lot of other interesting plot points than ships and pjo's never been just about romance yk? it's about so many other things. sometimes, shipping ruins shit for a fandom, especially when people are out here harassing people for harmless ships. when i say harmless ships, i mean ships that don't have pedophilia, zoophilia, incest, and more. scarily enough, there are plenty of ships like that I'm gonna choose not to tag or comment because lowkey interacting with people who scream at you for not liking their ship is something way too common in the fandom. also, legendborn. this book series has a lot going for it (if it can get better after bloodmarked..) but i see a lot of people only focusing on the shipping portion which is very strange to me. this book is about representation and ancestry and finding your roots, not about which boy bree should kiss. i mean, is the romance cute? sure. but let's stop shoving aside the actual plot for it also, mind you, the amount of people i've seen getting attacked for not being a big fan of canon ships is insane. some people think canon is some kind of holy grail, and that changing it is akin to sacrilege and I just do not get it. why does canon matter if some guy says “I’d prefer it to be like this”, and it's still an innocent ship? it’s just an excuse for people who clearly need to go outside to say “uhm actually you’re having fun wrong 🤓, leave this fandom now, you don't deserve to be here”. but also, mind you, if someone makes an anti post of your favorite ship or character /or/ a pro post of your least favorite, stop going after them. damn. scroll past. even block them if you want. it's not difficult. people are entitled to their own opinions and they can choose for themselves what characters they like and dont like. would you like to be attacked for liking/disliking a character? of course not. literally no one wants to wake up to that. TL;DR: sometimes, shipping can ruin a fandom, especially when people harass people over it, and canon doesn't have to be followed, and sometimes anti/pro really isn't that deep when it comes to book characters
