Trying to write an RR fanfic that complies with canon is so frustrating. Not for lack of ideas, but for lack of skill. How does Pierce write so surgically without making a choppy mess? 😭
I know he practiced, though. I'll just go back to drafting and hopefully I'll get over myself quickly.

How they tried to cheer up Cassius after the Gala:

Also how the fandom treats Cassius, if you think about it 🤔.

“Tactus didn’t sell the Violin… He was practicing in private, shaking off some of the rust. Said he wanted to surprise you with a sonata, Darrow."
Tumblr media
(I’m reading Golden Son right now and as soon as I read this line I dropped everything I was doing and went “yeah I’m drawing Tactus playing the Violin now”)

Mars has always had 'death by a thousand cuts' as its last and most effective defence mechanism. Which is poetic and heart-breaking as fuck, because it boils down to Reds and their connection to Mars and how steadfast and dedicated they can be. Loyalty, pure and simple. All-enduring.
All in all, I am not looking forward to its utter obliteration via Eidmi, while Darrow is unaware or finds out, but it's too late to do anything. It's top 10 anime betrayals for sure. Because that is what it is - Darrow doesn't know and he could have and prepared. Even if he failed - which we cannot know - he should have been informed.

Unspoken Howler Rule No. 1:
Don't get attached too quickly.
RIP Trigg ti Nakamura
Probably NOBODY cares about this but I'm up reading Morning Star by Pierce Brown, third book in the series, mind you I know what kind of books these are, and we are barely 6 chapters in and this new character became my new favorite, completely un-seating dear Sevro, in fucking MINUTES
And guess what has already happened to my new favorite character??? Fucking guess??
Like I shouldn't be SURPRISED it's exactly what I expected but he was my NEW FAVORITE CHARACTER
I only knew you for an hour, but I loved you
RIP 🥺

Proceed with the yelling. (DM or otherwise)
Reading Golden Son from the Red Rising trilogy and oh man that plot twist got me good. I need someone to yell about these books with.
