Lonleyhumanbeing - I Am Invested In Too Many Fandoms… At Least 26…

I haven’t read The Stern Chase yet… but I know there is a wedding. I think it’s with Lydia and Ingvar but I could be wrong. So this is how I envision it going:

Ulf and Wulf are the flower girls. They twisted her arm until she let them.

Thorn acts as both the Father of the Bride and the Maid of Honor. He influenced Lydia’s life so much after what happened in her hometown.

Erak is the officiant. Since he is Oberjarl and is close to the Heron crew.

Jealous suitors of Lydia’s try to crash the reception. They are promptly knocked out.

Karina helps Lydia get ready. She is such a mother figure to her and I love their dynamic.

What the Fairy Tail members do in their down time headcannons

Lucy tries to work on her book, but if she gets writer block you can find her wandering around Magnolia, looking for inspiration.

Natsu works out. He has a lot of energy and always needs to be doing something. At the very least he is too distracted to start fights and cause property damages.

Gray likes to read. There wasn’t a lot in terms of entertainment in Ur’s cabin, so he read a lot as a kid. He likes adventure books.

Erza loves shopping. There’s a reason she rents out 5 rooms at Fairy Hills! (To hold all her stuff). It stems from having nothing as a kid. She sees being able to buy what she wants as validation she has ‘made it’ in life.

Wendy likes to cook. It isn’t uncommon to see her and the Strauss siblings cooking behind the bar. Carla likes to sit near her and tries to help.

My thoughts on Brotherband Chronicles book 9: The Stern Chase

I didn’t have high expectations going into this one (thank The Missing Prince and Escape from Falasie for that) but it was so good.

The fact that it implies that Hal is a man whore. “But Hal wasn’t ready to settle down with one girl”. Is great

I love the Lydia and Ingvar pairing, and it is atypical how the main characters aren’t the ones to settle down first.

The fact that John Flanagan just… had a bear massacre and kill 5 people…

Ulf and Wulf being the bridesmen is so on brand and amazing.

They don’t have beards though, in my mind the entire crew is still 16.

The oar ramming is always my favorite move they make.

Erak’s hilfman isn’t Borsa anymore… that’s sad. But Erak threatening a sanction and a blockade? Amazing.

And Hal locking Jesper in the storage room to avoid a saga was my favorite scene. It’s the Skandian version of ‘hold my beer’.

Kloof and Erak’s relationship has progressed so much.

Overall 9/10. It had enough story for the plot if that makes sense. Escape from Falasie had too much plot for the story and The Missing Prince had not enough story in it.

There are about four scenes in Wayward Son that really stand out to me, to the point that I have them bookmarked.

Baz has drained a unicorn before. They apparently taste like lavender.

“Ill be damned and drawn and fucking quartered before I watch some devil-eyed goat feel up my boyfriend right in front of me.” Simon Snow when he and said boyfriend are unable to communicate and are about to break up.

“I’d tie our hearts together, chamber by chamber.” IF THEY HAD JUST TALKED IT OUT THEN…

The entire saga of Natasha’s scarf. They both care so much BUT CANT COMMUNICATE It

This book puts the best kind of bee in my bonnet

The fact that Simon went from:

Not touching Baz unless it was a punch to

Awkwardly bumping his shoulder for comfort to

Doing it again, less awkwardly

Grabbing his shoulder and giving Baz his magic to

Holding his hands as Baz showed them stars

All in about a day says a lot about Simon. He just wanted any excuse to touch Baz after he realized that they don’t have to constantly fight each other.
