people who go through the main tags of big and tumultuous fandoms looking for new fresh good posts to reblog are essential to any circle. they’re like true hunter gatherers leaving the safety of settlement and braving the unknown wilderness to find food for the flock. they risk their lives every day and will come back with a few scratches at best and severe psychological damage at worst

When he’s Jacks, The Prince Of Hearts <3
“Do you want to kiss me, Little Fox?”
“I like you right now. I like you a lot. In fact, I can’t think of anything I like more.”
“I do not want you dead, and I’ll kill anyone who tries.”
“Don’t fret, I won’t tell your husband that you’re obsessed with me.”
“Little Fox, Had to leave. Things to do. Try not to die while I’m gone.- J”
“I was killing innocent maidens and kicking puppies.”
“It’s all right. I’d probably kill another man if I found him with you like this.”
“If it’s easier, you can pretend too. You can pretend that I’m still Jacks of The Hollow and that you want to be mine.”
“There is nothing of equal value to me.”

Quotes from Kieran that straight-up sound like Shakespearean love poetry: a comprehensive list
‘None may touch me. None but you.’
‘What is left of my heart belongs to you. When you leave, it will shatter anew.’
‘Tell me I did not hurt you.’
‘How am I expected to pass another century without the taste of you on my tongue?’
‘After so many decades spent hating each sunset, knowing nightfall would take my freedom from me... I began to yearn for the moonrise instead of cursing it. Because dreams of you might be waiting on the other side.’
‘I would rather be cursed to roam the wilds as a beast every night than live endless lifetimes without you.’
‘Wherever it is that souls may go, you will find mine waiting for you at the end of all things.’
‘You shall pay dearly for every spilled drop of her blood.’
‘I was not lying. Were you?’
‘Just this once, beloved... I wish you could not lie.’
‘You hold all of my heart, beloved. Now, and always.’
‘I would make and unmake the world for you, beloved.’
‘Believe me when I say I want every part of you. Every version. Now and future.’
‘Look, beloved. Your skin is a canvas covered in stars.’
‘If I were you, I would begin by thanking her and throw yourself on her continued mercy. Because you’ll get none from me.’
‘What would be the point of immortality without you?’
‘No magic. Like an everyday mortal.’
‘Insult her again, and I will carve my refusal into your flesh, so that you may never forget it.’
‘I don’t care what your title is. Every breath, every beat of my heart belongs to you. You are mine for life.’
‘Thank you… for sharing the sky with me.’
‘If you lay a single hand on her, there will be nothing left of this place but a hole in the ground.’
‘Let us live in this moment long enough that I may love you the way you deserve.’
‘I will let nothing separate us… I shall always find you. Your heart calls to mine in a language beyond words.’
‘For you I would set worlds aflame, tear the sun and moon from the sky. I did not live before I met you.’
‘Perhaps you are the most courageous of all, for choosing to live among us. A mortal among gods.’
‘Welcome home, beloved.’
‘You helped me find peace in my grief. I will always help you find peace in yours.’
‘You sacrifice too much for me, beloved.’
‘I cannot give you my heart. It already belongs to someone else.’
‘There will always be tasks vying for our attention. But you are more important to me than any of them.’
‘I like being in here. I always want you to have the freedom of a place to call your own… and it means everything, that you welcome me in.’
(And finally, BONUS: Quotes from *other* characters in The Cursed Heart that straight-up sound like Shakespearean poetry, because the writers of this book just do. not. rest.)
‘I know you. I’m not afraid.’
‘I love him so terribly, it hurts.’
‘You are so much stronger than you know. And a love as strong as this is worth fighting for.’
‘Even if you kill me, I’m glad I met you. Because you deserve to be happy. You deserve to be loved. And I will love you until my very last breath.’
‘The world is rarely gentle to those who are so kind. It is you who must be the strongest of all.’
‘What do you want with that cursed thing?’ / ‘To cut the Sun and the Moon from the sky.’
‘Anything here that wishes to eat me had best prepare to choke.’
‘I know you. And I love you. Both your darkness and your light.’
‘You are everything I want. Just you. Just like this.’
‘If love could forestall death, we would all be immortal.’
‘All stories end. Even ours. That’s what makes them beautiful.’
‘I don’t care where I sleep, so long as it’s beside you.’

thinking about the fact that in finale jacks gives tella the dagger to stab him with to end their marriage right??? and she does. but in ouabh, jacks gives eva the dagger, and tells her to stab him but she chooses not to. which probably surprised jacks because it seems like he thought she would do the same as donatella 😭😭😭😭 help i'm in shambles

when he says "I love you" but jacks showed that actions speak louder than words through sacrificing his own heart in exchange for his lover's protection

First Kill on Secret Life + spoilers
Jimmy being first, to kill someone is not what I expect, and the fact it was an accident is funny. Poor Lizzie, another Red to the red gang.
Jimmy tried to break up the Heart Foundation, is insane, and I'm pretty sure he hit all the Heart Foundation members.
I have a weird feeling Jimmy might break his curse. (Please Jimmy, break the curse)

So wait, what’s the range on how long EQ has been in prison for wonderland. 1 year? 5? 7? In the show the characters that escape seem the same age as we currently see them, but I vaguely remember in the books being implied for longer than that.
If you don’t have an answer that’s ok, your seemingly episodic memory of the franchise amazes me anyhow.
I mostly just reread the books all the time because I have them illegally downloaded on my phone and I’m planning on taking an English major so I just have a good memory / analyze text like crazy. Also like the literacy of teenage girls who have unhealthy obsessions? Is surprisingly good.
Anyways this is always something that confuses me!!!
BECAUSE THEY NEVER SAY HOW MANY YEARS
LIKE MAYBE I NEED TO REREAD BUT MOSTLY THEY TALK A LOT ABT PRECURSE/MIRROR PRISON IN THR SHANNON HALE SERIES AND THE DIARIES AND A LOT ABOUT DURING IMPRISONMENT IN THE SHANNON HALE SERIES / TV SERIES BUT WE NEVER GET A TIMELIME!!!
Anyways the best I can canonically get you is that Lizzie mentions being 3 and the curse not being there and we know that the og 3 wonderlandians had been in ever after since at least freshman year
So basically that’s like an 11 year timespan
I mean we can assume it takes place a bit later bc bunny thought Alistair would ask her out before the curse which implies she was older, but then also her dad probably made Bunny with a human so if things like beastiality work different in wonderland maybe typical dating ranges r different too
Ok now I actually want to analyze it more , I’ll probably reread the first 3 books on my plane ride tmr

Why Jacks heart beat in legendary? Tella isn't his one true love!
Here is a little theory I have come up with why jacks heart actually started beating in the caraval series.
We actually know jacks heart didn't started beating right after the kiss. Donatella didn't die right away after the kiss because jacks had slowed her heart. So she gets to be alive but with a slow heart so that her lifespan increases , she'll eventually die but not immediately with the slow heart she'll die slowly.
Donatella was having dying symptoms she was continuously bleeding on different occasions as a result of that kiss. Untill the undead queen haunted her and she confessed to legend about the true story of the kiss. Legend fed her his blood to save her and next morning tella had faster heartbeats which means jacks curse stopped working on her after that. It was legend's blood which saved her as we can actually see in OUABH how jacks blood does trick on apollo.
Now that tella hadn't dead of jacks kiss because of legend's blood; so the curse on jacks is also broken as someone he kissed hadn't dead. And the curse on him was broken. Jacks heart didn't beat because he believed tella was his true love but because of the design of the curse ( if she doesn't die from your kiss your heart will start beating again ) and tella didn't die so his curse broke right the moment legend's saved tella from his deadly kiss.
After the curse was broken jacks kiss was no more deadly to anyone I guess. In OUABH and TBONA jacks didn't kiss anyone so it's clear that if he had kissed someone he will know his kiss isn't deadly anymore. So tella is definitely not his one true love.

Ok got some headcanons after sitting on the new kingdom update a bit, in no particular order-
I think the Lilly village in the millennial forest originated from decedents of faerie cookies, some left for crispia centuries ago and that village I can’t find the name of is where they settled.
Cookies with some fae heritage don’t have wings, but they have a wing shaped birthmark on their back, the more direct ancestry the more visible it is (ie if a faerie is a parent the birthmark is brighter but if the faerie is a distant grandparent it’s more dull and faded, easy to miss)
Millennial tree is technically siblings with the Silver tree (it’s complicated) but directly refers to Elder Faerie as his brother. Some cookies think Millie’s cookie form looks similar to elder faerie on purpose.
Elder faerie just rolls with the sibling thing, he’s got no strong negative feelings about it so whatever.
I’m trying to figure out the timeline of events for my au because this universe merges some Ovenbreak events and I’m realizing there’s going to be overlap in some places.
Current idea is the longan event happens just before or during the beast years expedition, but nobody outside of legendary dragon territory is effected by it because of Millennial tree’s magic fence keeping the dragon magic contained.
Meanwhile in beast yeast a clown has been unleashed and idk if it’s funnier if he also gets stuck on the other side of the millennial fence or if the beast cookies are stuck in beast yeast for different reasons at the moment.
The kingdom universe just cannot catch a break.
Tea knight might be part fae. I idk I saw someone make a post about it and I was like “wait no this could be really funny if he didn’t know” and even funnier if someone else connects the dots before he did.
It’d be a distant ancestor who was fae but still.
Some of the cursed hearts knew or heard of the beast cookies, they used to be ancient magic beasts before they became the hearts, some were born when the beast cookies seal was fresh, some knew of the beasts before their corruption, and at least one didn’t know them at all what do you mean there’s a murder clown?
Connected to that, Sphinx cookie and their brethren were created as an extra line of defense if the beast cookies returned.
The Sphinx cookies are immortal guardians, who live as long as they have a pact with a cookie, when that cookie dies or the pact breaks in some way the Sphinx turns to stone until the next time a cookie wakes them.
Over time some Sphinx were stone long enough they eroded, and their body became the minor Sphinx seen around as well as other stone creatures. The only one remaining is Sphinx cookie, who serves Golden Cheese cookie
