Smolder - Tumblr Posts
I agree that this is too rough, but there is a way to look at it where it has better meaning. As a tragedy at least
Smolder and Palm is a story about a family that should have been, but was ruined. Then as if out of spite the universe kills Palm before they can have a dramatic reunion, leaving their daughter to grow up twisted and cruel like the dragons they were hiding from Ultimately, their story still needs closure. That's why I now think the next book should be from Smolder's perspective, as he fights to keep what family he has against everything saying it's not gonna happen. as if to say "NO! Screw YOU universe! I will love them even if it kills me and I! WILL! NOT! DIE! EASY! BITCH!" "I AM DAAAAAAD!"

I actually agree with you; Palm's death was about as dramatic and serious as Maude Flanders getting shot with a T-shirt cannon. It's ridiculous. If this had happened to a throwaway character in a context-less vacuum I would find it hilarious.
What makes it sad for me is how this event relates back to Smolder, whose grief over the loss of his lover I think I WAS supposed to take seriously. Palm is also involved in a scene that wasn't played for laughs in the prologue of book 10 where she sold out her sister for her unborn child's life. And then there's the matter of said sister, who got trapped underground for 20 years over a misunderstanding and lost her mind. Those are all fairly tragic and serious events shaped by Palm's character, which then somehow culminates in... a space rock flying through her head randomly.
I guess for me personally, after Smolder crying for her for years, Palm getting run over by a clown car from space is giving me such tonal whiplash, I try not to think about the details too much.
This is not an indictment of anyone who finds the entirety of it laughable. I can see why it would be hilarious. It's dark humor. I'm just dumb and sentimental.

Fun fact about TCOD!Ocellus:
She's very ashamed of her changeling origin(being Chrysy's child is hard) so she often disguises herself as another specie.
The Lady Bug bracelet is a gift Chrysalis gave her when Ocellus turned 10:³🐞
I was reading Brightest Night and I noticed how Sunny describes Smolder’s voice as sarcastic-sounding, even if he’s not necessarily being sarcastic. Idk I thought it was funny 😅
i know he didn’t get much show but smolder is literally me
why do i feel like the vast majority of the fandom have that one favorite character they kin so much? anyways reblog with what yours is, i wanna see if i'm right about my suspicion.
