OW, I Love This Quote

Heaven Gaia 盖娅传说 By Xiong Ying 熊英 ➤ Spring Summer 2021 “乾坤 沧渊” Show

you see, you must bite your gods. don't get yourself a god you can't bite. maybe some that you shouldn't, yes, but otherwise you ought to have gods you can bite. and bite.

and then you must know what you're biting them for and what you expect.

some gods you bite and they'll bite you back, which is good. some gods you bite and it'll sharpen your teeth, and that is good as well. some gods you bite and you'll devour them instead and that is good, as well, again.

some gods you bite and it's a reward, and some you'll bite as penance, some as communion, some as sex, some as simple curiosity. some you bite and they break your teeth or tame you, and you must ask yourself whether this is what you desire.

but you must bite your gods.

cardan in tcp, randomly dancing with jude, avoiding her question as to what he wanted and avoiding insulting her with a fake excuse, lowers his hand on her hip, then (obviously) trying to get jude to say she hates him: “you really hate me, don’t you?” ends up leaving after judes response because buddy almost lost self control there (when you read the cardan in twk you’ll understand). let us not forget later that night he was watching her because just after his family was murdered (yikes), he found jude where she was hiding, telling her it’s not safe for her in that current situation. SOMEONE couldn’t get their mind off her especially after what she had said.

cardan in twk when jude says she hates him, showing signs of his kink: takes judes chin in his fingers, tilting her face to his. “say it again” his voice is l o w

cardan another time in twk, when him and jude are getting it ON: TELL ME AGAIN WHAT YOU SAID AT THE REVEL THAT YOU HATE ME TELL ME THAT YOU HATE ME (she does) he proceeds to kiss her harder (she says it again) he makes a harsh, l o w sound. takes off from there

this is just cause i love how longggg cardan has been wanting her, unable to control it and other great shit like damnnn fucking favs

Crashing | Jurdan Fake Hating One Shot

Written for: @poeticbrownmermaid​ for my 1k celebration!

Massive thank you to: @clockworkgraystairs​ and @sweetlyvillainous​ for beta reading this and holding my hand before I posted 🥺❤️

Summary: You’ve heard of fake dating. Get ready for fake hating. It’s all very romantic.

Rating: M/E for explicit language and a short, soft focus smut scene (a steam scene, if you will). The sexy parts start and stop after the ☽☽ in case you want to skip.

Masterlist

“You taste—” I’m cut off by my own giggle, which rises to my lips like my mouth is a glass and my laugh is the Champagne they’re serving at this dumb party. “You taste like bubblegum.”

Cardan looks at me funny, then snorts. “What?”

His eyes are beguiling when they’re amused. Even more beguiling when they’re amused and looking at me. They are dark intoxication. They compete against the night sky for vastness. I could swallow them whole.

what the fuck did I just download

His most ostentatious decoration, however, is his soft, sullen mouth.

It makes him look every bit the jerk that he is.

go!

Also Cardan in twk thought that Jude spied for Dain because she was his lover (and not because of geas against being compelling)

There are two ways for mortals to become permanent subjects of the Court: marrying into it or honing some great skill. (TCP, Jude while getting ready for a revel) Do not reveal all that you can do. Show your power by appearing powerless. That is what I need from you.” (TCP, Dain to Jude, after the hand-stabbing scene) But I cannot forget his words to me: You are my creature, Jude Duarte. I touch my wounded hand to the hilt of my silver sword, the sword my father forged. After tonight, I will be the High King’s spy and a true member of his Court. (TCP, Jude during the coronation but before it went GoT) There were only two ways of being part of the court without raising suspicion. And Dain told Jude explicitly to not show any of her skills. Jude should have been way more worried about what Dain was planning for her. 

Love the edit. The most delicious part of the novel is quoted.

that’s what makes you my favorite

Has anyone else noticed this about Locke?

In The Stolen Heir, it's revealed that Oak is a Love Talker aka Gancanagh (a faerie who is able to quicken desire in both faeries and mortals and also seduce them just by word of mouth) because his mother, Liriope, was also one. This means that--because Oak and Locke share the same mother--Locke was most definitely also a Love Talker. This could explain why Taryn so easily betrayed Jude, her own twin sister, for Locke. It could also be the reason Nicasia suddenly cheated on Cardan with him. It was so easy for Locke to manipulate and seduce almost everyone around him because of this power of his. It could also explain why Cardan remained friends with him even after what he did.
