Thief Lord News

i'm still away from my laptop/slightly shellshocked after meeting cornelia BUT during the interview portion she said that she'd been determined not to work on any long stories this year, but when she went to Venice, an idea ambushed her and she can't shake it off. A bit later she confirmed (predictably) that it's something related to The Thief Lord 👀

#the thief lord #info #to me at least this was news i'm excited #sie hat auch über das wilde hühner projekt gesprochen und es klingt langsam konkreter #cornelia funke #but guys honestly meeting her was so wild the fact that she knew who i was- #-or what i've done i suppose #insane #unbelievable #always meet your heroes i love her so much #i was hungover and covered in glitter but. anyway.

You know who’s great? Cornelia Funke

1) she used to be a social worker that helped kids from deprived backgrounds

2) she wrote several fictional series about children confronting and overcoming adversity in several ways

3) She worked with the UN during their “United Nations Decade on Biodiversity” 

4) she doesn’t use her fame and influence to platform ideologies and people that attack marginalized groups 

Seriously, why don’t people talk more about her?

Sibling Showdown Extra Poll: Missed Opportunities

A poll of sibling sets that were not submitted for this bracket, but that I wish had been because I personally think they would've been fun.

i do not understand people who think scipio is some kind of suave, mysterious, edgy bad boy or something

like. you dont get him at all lmao

that’s his facade!! that’s how he wants to be!! that’s what he’s trying to be!!

but honestly he’s just a lonely 13 year old boy that is impulsive and trying to be cool, and you’re falling for it

Wondering why I have such a weakness for rich characters in empty houses with abandonment issues.

Bonus points for a redemption arc, found family, and/or running away

there was a definite pipeline from me reading the thief lord as a kid to me liking moriarty the patriot as an adult.

i hope there is at least one person who understands what i'm getting at here because i can offer no explanation longer than "vibes" and "found family".

He wants to be grown-up. How different dreams can be! Nature will soon grant your wish.

Found Family Tournament Round 1 Part 9 Group 45

Propaganda and further pictures under the cut

Thief Gang: Scipio, Bo, Prosper, Hornet, Mosca, Riccio/Ida, Bo, Prosper, Hornet

Submissions are still open!

Ash & Pikachu:

Can I enter these two?? Do I need to rant about them? The love between a boy and his pokémon is approaching timelessness, considering they were at it for over 20 years! I actually was fine about them leaving, it's definitely time, but was looking for a specific picture the other day and it just kinda hit me they're actually leaving and just....thanks for my childhood you two!

Thief Gang:

Sorry, I got no propaganda for them yet :(

Thinking about the time I wanted to read the Thunder Thief but ended up reading The Book Thief. Then when I needed to read the Thief Lord for a school assignment, I ended up rereading The Book Thief.

I think I’m dyslexic gang 😓
