Xaden is a simp, and Liam and Garrick think it's hilarious. There is nothing slow about this burn.

"You're Fen Riorson's son, you're in Cordyn for mysterious 'family business' and your friends are nowhere to be seen, yet you don't see me asking what you're really getting up to," she retorts. "Don't ask questions when I know you aren't willing to give answers either."

I'm so close now that I could touch her if I reached out. I could wipe away the spatter of blood - not hers - that made its way to her cheek, a bloom of crimson against her pale skin. Instead, I pick up the end of her braid which is draped over her shoulder, and run my fingers through the tail of it. I'm tempted to yank out the hair tie and let her hair fall loose. "How would you know? You never asked."

The two of us stare at each other amidst the bloodbath, two bodies drawn together as if by gravity. She feels inescapable; like Violet was someone I would inevitably crash into no matter what I did.

"You said I didn't want to know what you know," Violet whispers. "On the plane. That was what you said."

I can feel her body heat through my clothes. I want to tear off every scrap of fabric that separates me from her.

"I didn't take you as someone who liked to do as you're told." My voice sounds gravelly and low, and my control is only hanging on by a tiny thread. This is so fucking dangerous.

Nit me rereading Fourth Wong and Iron Flame and just... Violet and Liam's friendship is so special to me. The way they worked so hard to protect one another, how she had his back in front of her mother and the KING, how even in death he's still there, watching over her and helping her. The way Violet took her final promise so so seriously that Sloane could have tried to kill her and she'd still save her life a million times over. I like to imagine that Violet, and the rest of the Iron Squad tbh, keeps Liam's carvings in a special spot so they stay safe but always remembered.

I'm a sucker for super close platonic relationships and these two were just so perfect.

She is mighty and watchs over your hoard you entrusted to her diligently. By this I mean I love her

Hi friends! Apologies for the absence the past few days—just been spending some time recharging. I’ll get around to the unanswered asks and stuff in the next day or two and we should return to our regularly scheduled programming for updates sometime next week 🫶🏻

As tax in the meantime, meet Kyro, one of my sacred book guardians
