The Court of Shadows when faced with a problem.
The Roach: of course we could stab him in the back?
The Bomb: well that just seems too obvious, maybe we could pour some poison in their ear and hope the post-mortem examiner doesn’t look too closely.
Jude: oh oh oh! I know! We could frame them for treason and have them killed!
Everyone else:
The Folk:
Obama:
Jesus:
Cardan: hey guys. What, and I cannot express this enough, the actual fuck-

of all the plot twists in the locked tomb literally NOTHING hits quite as hard as the twist in GtN that the only reason gideon and harrow """hate""" each other is because they hate themselves and assume the other one has to hate them the same way and the second they both come clean about that they're immediately ready to drop it and die for each other in Grand Displays Of Dramatic Lesbianism. like it still fucks me up every time i think about it

it’s bound to be a fun time with the queen and the bomb 🃏

‼️THE COURT OF SHADOWS HEADCANONS‼️
Liliver and Van would give Cardan regular updates on Jude during her exile because ofc he'd be worried sick abt her
Liliver, Van, Garret and Cardan would all play EXTREME truth or drink but because they can't lie is extra serious and ends up with a very annoyed Jude
Frequently during the exile Cardan would get super drunk and tell Liliver and Van about how much Jude means to him and when he got her the dress, write her name all over the paper and when they kissed in tcp ect ect. Liliver would probably end up crying herself to sleep that night (I don't blame her)
Liliver loves noodles and when she introduces Cardan to them he gains a new obsession with Chinese take-away
Liliver would make funny harmless bombs or potions to put people to sleep or something and plant them in Lady Asha's room. For fun, of course
Jude would braid or do Lilivers hair for her often
Cardan would help apply Lilivers make-up sometimes
Cardan insisted on putting on a party or celebration for Liliver and Van so he brought funny party hats and stuff from target and threw a party in their base
All the new recruits would be too scared to talk to Cardan (I know I would be)
The court got Cardan a pet snake/snake toy as a joke for his birthday one year and he wasn't very impressed
Liliver and Jude would often have 'girls night' but instead of doing face masks or whatnot they would throw daggers at targets and talk about the best way to kill someone with minimal damage. And gossip, of course
Cardan would go to Van for life advice a lot
I've never done hc so I hope you like them!! And I love the court of shadows so you knew they had to be my first lol
