It’s slowly picking up. Still unsure if I’m loving it so far but I’m very intrigued! The world building is simple. I think I missed why she got placed at the Visnatus Academy but maybe I’ll find out later the reason why? 😬 i dont know

“You’re haunting, it’s been mere weeks that I’ve known you. And it’s been weeks that you’ve been on my mind. Like a spell.”

“How was Kai?”

“How was Fleur?”

“I wouldn’t know,” I say. “I was too busy imagining she was you.”

the banter omgggg >😩😩

“The gold of her dress accentuates the bits of orange in her brown eyes, and up close, she is more than an ember. She’s a raging fire.”

“He knows why I’m avoiding his gaze. All I can see now is the boy with the messed-up suit and hair, on account of me. The boy whose fingers brushed my cheeks and whose lips occupied my mind these past nights more than I’d like to admit. The boy I can never have, let alone want.”

“Your laugh,” he says, his gaze never leaving my face, his eyes darkening as though holding back something he can no longer hide. “It’s bewitching. I don’t think I could ever get enough of it. I think I could get drunk off it.”

Intriguing so far. I feel like I’m going to be using the term guide a lot lol.

“I can’t tie the corset,”.

“I’ve only ever untied them.But for you, I’ll try.”

GURRRRRRL

“Desdemona looks up, locking her gaze with mine, her eyes wider than I’ve ever seen them. Her eyes. How have I never noticed her eyes? They’re the color of the warm rays of the sun, of leaves right before they fall from their trees, of the gold that we’ve deemed too precious to mine.”

UGH HES FALLING FOR HER YAS

“This is only our second time working together, and since the last, I’ve spent far too many hours turning over the question of why her magic feels so potent. Specifically why it felt so different—so jolting—when I touched her. It was electrifying. Like I was the winter and she was the warmth. Like I was a question and she was the answer. Like I was a dying man and she was the air.”

“I need your help with something.”

“You need my help?” I ask slowly.

“Yes,” he says with a smirk. “I could use a powerful partner.”

“In your dreams,” I scoff. His tone is too sarcastic to be considered kind when he says,

“You already are.”

yesss let the flirtation begin😩🙂‍↔️

“We play roles. We don’t become them.”

Damn Wendy is carrying the team rn how many times has she been healing everyone haha

“I make a mental vow to not die today. Or tomorrow, for that matter.”

eerily similar to my girl violet sorrengail “i will not die today”

Actually pretty good so far. Kinda confused where Kai went bc he seemed into Des at first and now we haven't heard anything about his character since the party? I'd have thought he'd be wanting to talk to her

HAHA IM OBSESSED WITH DES ALREADY

"Then Aralia laughs as she asks, "Why do you carry a letter opener?"

She fiddles with the knife, and I glance at it. I had no idea that's what it was. But I mutter, "You never know when you'll find unexpected correspondences."

LMFAOOOOOOOO
