Proud auntie moments today:
My 7-year-old nephew is extremely hyperfixated on playing piano, especially melodies he’s picked out from Phantom of the Opera
At one point we’re listening to the soundtrack and he’s skipped to the “Poor fool” song, to his sister’s chagrin. I was like, “is this seriously one of your favorites?” And he says to me, “yeah! Someone gets murdered in this song!” Can’t argue with that logic
His sister, who’s nearly nine, said “Come on Aunt Corinne, let’s go look at my books and talk about them!” And had me quietly read with her upstairs
She also said she’d loan me the book she’s reading for Battle of the Books, but instead we found it on the Libby app and my assignment is to read it before her birthday so we can discuss it
Also I got to see their backyard chickens and they’re helping me come up with arguments for why I should have yard chickens as well

early march '24 🐈‍⬛️ practising my russian, wasting time at cafes, and frequenting places that are way too cool for me — it feels nice to be able to leave the house without risking frostbite and pneumonia
thank you, spring 🌱 ☕️

So I'm reading P5V6 and the part that really just stuck out to me is how the current generation of the Ehrenfest Archduchal family directly parallel to the previous generation. Sure, the ages are mixed around but we have a perfect Archduke candidate who is perfect in everything but her sex; A young genius brought late into the family, who despite being the most gifted lacks the ambition to be heir; A lighthearted, strong personality who lacks the temperament to be Archduke but favored by thier father anyway; and the sibling who just wants to stay out of it and focus on the present.
Tumblr media
The adult members of the family find themselves looking at an unforgiving mirror. It's why characters like Sylvester try to replicate the past, but at the same time defy it. Slyvester adopted Rozemyne to be a minister for Wilfried, just like how Ferdinand was brought in to boost him up. Sylvester is following in his father's footsteps and making the same mistakes that got the family in this position in the first place, except the new generation won't let him.
Despite the similarities, Rozemyne is not Ferdinand(she's not going to coddle Wilfried like Ferdinand does Sylvester). Charlotte is not Georgine(despite her frustration, she loves her siblings). And Wilfired is not Sylvester because, unlike Sylvester, Wilfried can admit that he is not the best option to be Archduke.
Tumblr media
The most selfish thing Sylvester does is "keeping" Wilfried as heir. By making Wilfried heir he simultaneously removed his son's choice and trapped him in position that in the eyes of the other nobles he could never earn and whats sad is Sylvester's own father had done that to him...
Because what if someone had told Sylvester when he was young that he didn't have to be aub? What if he was allowed to have a choice? What if he'd admitted that Ferdinand and Georgine would have been much better Archdukes?
History is not repeating itself because the young refuse to let it. Wilfried will not be trapped by the seat of Aub, Rozemyne will not just be someone's minister, and Charlotte will support her siblings.
And that's the beauty of the current arc.
Because Sylvester and the others are learning from their children and learning from their mistakes, and together they are breaking generational curses.

This is random.. But is there anything in canon that indicates Billy likes to read? I've seen a lot of fanfic that pegs him as a Jane Austen fan, but it's been so long since I've watched season 2 & 3 so I dunno if that's in the series at all for real.
Tumblr media
in s2ep8 we see “My Life and Hard Times” by James Thurber during the scene where he’s getting ready to go out
Tumblr media
in the same episode you can see a book on the shelf behind him
Tumblr media
and then in s3ep6 we see child billy sitting at the table with a book in front of him, showing that he must’ve been reading before his parents started fighting
so billy reading is canon and it’s something that comes up more than once but, as to what he likes genre wise, i don’t think there’s a whole lot to go off of so it’s pretty much open to interpretation
hope that answers your question :)

one of my absolute favorite things about the multi povs in King's Cage - War Storm, is the fact that every single person that had a pov chapter (besides Maven) has called or referred to Maven as a child.
I rly wish I had ss for this but I'm too lazy to go through every chapter to find them (💀)
but I remember that the more the story went on, the more the characters began to realize what a child Maven was. which is ironic considering the fact that he turned from a boy prince that no one looked at to the King of Norta who everyone feared.
everyone slowly began to realize what a child Maven Calore truly was. and it's almost haunting. the only person who I feel always knew was Cal.

Myne’s first winter in the temple: I can’t see my family every day… I have to sleep alone in bed… I need to hug them whenever they visit. Oh they can’t visit because of snow? *follows Ferdinand around like a lost duckling*
Rozemyne after her adoption: I can’t call them my family anymore but I can send letters and still hug lutz in the hidden room… so.. I can do it. They are safe.
Rozemyne when she can’t use her hidden room like that anymore: I can… still see them. That’s okay. We are still connected through business. Even lutz and me… even if we had to resolve our original contract. It’s fine.
Rozemyne after Ferdinand leaves for Ahrensbach: this is fine. I can do it. I still have my family here and I can write Ferdinand in secret ink!
Rozemyne after she knows she’ll move to the Sovereignity and is not supposed to write Ferdinand so much anymore: Everyone is safe, if everyone is okay then I can deal with that.

I want to write a dystopian fiction book that’s just what’s going on in the world rn but with slightly better fashion and the main character actually saves the day instead of just fucking dying like every person who try’s to make a change irl

I wanna play a game. Make me read, out loud, while you fuck me. Every time I stop reading, you stop fucking me.
Let's see how much I can take before I forget how words work.

Something to note is that in the Side Stony Volume 1 of Ascendance of a bookworm novel
There’s a mini comic abt how Charlotte would be a much better fiancé than Wilfred if she were a boy and she bemoans that since it would also mean she’d be Aub
But what’s interesting
Is that THAT version of Charlotte is almost exactly what Lutz was to Myne
Tumblr media
And that’s interesting because THATS what Ferdinand wanted Wilfred to be
He wanted someone who could not only keep up with Myne but also reign her in! Lutz was the first buffer Myne had whenever she had a crazy idea. He listened to him first, bounced off ideas, and either gave up or came up with another thing.
Wilfred never truly managed to do this on his own. He always has to get other attendants to agree with him before convincing her to do smth else.
But Charlotte can! She just needs to ask smth from Rozemyne and she’ll do it. She doesn’t want to socialize? Charlotte just has to say that she was looking forward to it. She’s the one that is given tasks by Rozemyne.
If Sylvester truly wasn’t so stubborn on keeping Wilfred as an Aub - he’d realize that Charlotte will always be a better option than Wilfred
Even when it comes to managing Rozemyne. I’d go as far as to say, also keeping her tied to the duchy. She could easily become someone Rozemyne cares enough to stay in the duchy for and protect. Keeping Charlotte in the duchy is for everyone’s best interest.
And the only way to do it - is by having her be the next Aub
