“Hey, little one. You’re freaking out this big, tall muscular guy who loves stabbing things. Mind getting off?” ....
“They’re closed this late. We’ll take it home and figure something out tomorrow.”

Omg my weakness!!!! RINA HOW DARE YOU MAKE HIM ENDEARING also what's with books having cats this month 🤣

Jeez. I knew I was fucked up, but I didn’t think I was this fucked up.

Underestimation of the fucking century. Also I feel fucked up for reading so your not alone Gareth 😅

“I am,” she said idly. “Does that mean you’ll do whatever I say?” “Why don’t you ask and find out?”

BRANDON!!!! tho i likeee this 😍

“Has the immortal said anything about being able to see the future?” she asked. “No,” he replied, plucking out another five-point chip. “Honestly, all he does is complain and speak nonsense.” (I’d object, but…well, I mean…)

Thats what Hoid does most of the time 🤣🤣🤣

But Lady, one important aspect of this teaching is the realization that everyone, male and female, has the capacity to be a villain. Our purpose is to overcome our worst tendencies, and if we didn’t possess equal capacity for evil, then we would not in turn possess equal capacity for good.

Time for a Hoid check-in. December’s story was all well and good, but how was I doing? At this point…yup, I was still dead. Moving on.

The perfect one. Because, of all the hundreds of thousands of people living in it, you’re the only one who saw that vision. You’re the only one who watched them die, the only one who wept, and the only one who understands.

So having the clerk completely ignore it was like screaming in a person’s ear, and then watching them keep reading a novel, uninterrupted.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Beneath the endpaper, framed in wobbling paste lines, are scrawled two ragged words: FIND ME.

IS THERE BOOK TWO?? OMG PLEASE

“Crocheting,” Cressien croaks. “We were…crocheting.”
Eugene lets out a dramatic gasp. “No—don’t tell me you were considering smooching in here. No boyfriends until you’re eighteen—we discussed this!”

Lmaooo

“Sunshine, I loved you before the whole princess thing. I loved you with your hair, and even more without it. And whoever you’ll be in a minute from now, a week, a decade…I know I’ll love her most of all.”

Oh my lord I'm dying this is too much 😻

“Maximus,” Eugene says. “With the white coat. You want to distract Enver? Give that horse a sword.”

I lovee this book but really should've been more of this 😂

And Cressien, who pushed him out of the way, looks down at the roots impaling his own stomach with a mixture of disbelief and indignation.
“Oh,” he says unevenly, “that’s not how I thought this would go at all.”

NOOO DONT YOU DARE!!!

And the cast-iron skillet propped against the stone wall a few feet away. The weight of the frying pan handle feels spectacular in his grip as the spear clatters to the ground.


I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS 😂😂😂😂 and I'm laughing so hard, this is perfect

“Good, because I think I’m starting to feel like I belong too. But I wouldn’t without you.”

THATS THE CUTEST SHIT!!!!!

People tend to underestimate the power of the stories we tell our children, and the stories children tell themselves. Andreas and Marietta saw something more than just adventures. They saw a dream that was possible because Flynnigan Rider never has to worry about his health or his money.

This!!!

And he’d never give up his life now—but until now, he didn’t know it was possible to mourn the one you never got to live.
Marietta Fitz. Andreas Herbert. And the Eugene Fitzherbert who should have been raised on starlight here.
He can add every one of them to what Enver owes.

💔

“To give you independence. They don’t want you feeling as if your livelihood depends on their good graces. And, loath as I am to say it, I do see areas where a man of your talents might thrive.”
“Our spymaster is seeking an apprentice. She reports to me, and regrettably, I would be willing to recommend you for the position if you wish it. But only if you cease acting so recklessly.”

We loveeee Cressien!!!!

“I’m a commoner and a thief, and apparently my parents tried to overthrow a monarchy. That’s not exactly husband material for a princess. I just figured it was only a matter of time before I was asked to…move along.”

Eugene babyyyy!!!! Noooo.

Verette looks to Eugene for backup. He just shrugs. “We’re a package deal. I go where she goes.”

They really are bcuz i can't think of one without the other tbh

It may have been a lie, selfish beyond measure. But for eighteen years, it felt true.

This is soo fucking sad!!! My poor baby 💔

“You really—memorized the—whole way out?” Cressien puffs between breaths. “What kind of amateur do you take me for?” Eugene stumbles to the landing. “No—don’t answer that.”

Flynn Rider a thief before anything else 🤣 now I'm gonna be looking for that in any Tangled retelling I read

“I didn’t know they had a son. Still, you are almost exactly like Andreas. He’s in your eyes, your voice, even the”—he waves a hand—“motions. But…I daresay you have your mother’s nose.”

It's always the fuck ass nose 🤣🤣🤣🤣

And that’s the worst part, really. He should have known better. He knows how a con works: You sell someone a fantasy. (A family that could make him good enough.) You tell them they can have what they’re missing. (A future with the princess he loves.)

This is making me sad!!!

“I can’t imagine you ever getting nervous,” Rapunzel says wryly.
His grin tilts at that. “Really? Because that’s how I feel basically all the time around you.”

Holy shit that's soo freaking adorable 🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️

Then her smile wavers. He grew up with so little; it’s not fair to deny him more.
She catches his sleeve. “I trust you,” she says, “and I don’t want to cost you your one chance at learning more about your family. If spying on me helps you with that…”
“Look, Freckles. Even if I was willing to put you in danger—and I’m not—you’re also a little too good at putting everyone else’s needs first.”

He barks a harsh laugh. “You must be joking. You want me to spy on the brilliant and incredible girl who’s the sole reason I’m not dead or in a dungeon…just so you’ll toss me some scraps about the people who abandoned me? Again, hard nope.”

Flynn is loyal in EVERY universe ❤️

“…telling you,” comes Solena’s quiet, raspy whisper. “Eugene would never work for a man like that.” “Eugene would like to not be blindfolded,” Eugene announces, already bored with pretending to be asleep. “Solena, long time no see. Hypothetically. You know, because of the blindfold.”

I can't explain it but this man is everything I want

If there’s more to his story than just being a thief and an orphan—if his family is anything to speak of—maybe Rapunzel’s parents will tolerate him for more than a month or two.

Oh my baby!!!!

It’s like yesterday, the uncanny feeling of being almost—recognized.
Recognized in a land he’s never set foot in before.
Recognized by a king, his chamberlain, and now a palace stableman.
