Valec: Oh please, you inhale your food.
Sel: I grew up with Nick. If you didn’t eat fast, you didn’t eat.

I’ve been rereading Legendborn & Bloodmarked and noticed I’ve never made fanarts of it. I didn’t know where to start so I try to visualize the way i see them in my head. I’ll try to add more of the cast in the 2 books soon enough <3

“I thought Merlins were only good at making weapons."
Sel's head is tilted back, a slow smile on his face as the aether falls around him. “So did I.”

New (Official) Bloodmarked Character Art!!!
Tumblr media
by mageofspace on Instagram
Tracy Deonn dropped this a few hours ago, illustrated by Mageofspace 😍
Featuring Valec, Alice, Mariah, and Will surrounding our Trio.
Little details that bring me joy:
* Will swirling his aether dagger in a teacup
* Mariah with the herbs and bowl and golden root and this faraway look on her face as though she's seeing dead people.
*Nick's shoes lol
*Alice's Gawain green wristband/ribbon!

Brees family + found family
the dad and mom scenes really got me feeling all types of ways, I love stories about complicated relationships with parents (mothers especially) and Brees journey with her grief and the memory of her mother got me in the heart

Here’s a piece I comm’d the lovely @/D0LCET (on twt) to do for me. 💗💗
My fave bbs Bree, Sel, and Nick (from the amazing Legendborn Cycle by @tracydeonn) being all cozy together, because they’re gonna be safe and happy and nothing bad will ever happen to any of them. 🥰💗🥰
