Oathbound chapter 14 spoilers
BREEEEEEEEEEE
BABY GIRL IS FINALLY BACKKKKKK
BUT i can't help but feel as though The Legendborn Cycle is going to end up with Bree & Sel.
Like we are introduced to Erebus in BM, who is set to be an important player in both Bree & Sel's life. Erebus watched Sel grow up, and in the early pages of BM is hinted that he holds a form fondness, almost fatherly toawrds Sel. With Bree, well he is the one that her ancestor made the curse to to protect her bloodline. In the beginning, Erebus tried to separate Bree/sel by placing charges on them, & the whole time he was chasing him he tried to get Bree to leave him and see him as a monster. I feel like erebus knows something that we the audience doesn't when it comes them. like why he is so scared and so determined to keep them separated?
Nick/bree i don't see happening? because their entire realtionship is coated with potential betrayal. 1st it was the whole scion of arthur thing -> nick believed himself to be the scion of arthur, but it turns out that is was bree along. 2nd, bree is starting/has started to fall for sel, who is a merlin and LB & the BM exclusive story made clear that nick has deep hatred for not only arthur but merlins as well. 3rd, i think the erebus was the one who mesmered nick's mom, and bree just made a deal w/ this guy to save a merlin's life. not to mention that all of bree/nick's encounters took place on battlefield's, while bree/sel had more domestic moments (the bathroom scene, the meadow scene, them setting the table at volition, him celebrating her bday w/ her) -> if that's not foreshadowing then i don't know what is
a lot of people are hoping for bree/nick/sel but i honeslty do not think that's happening. not only did tracy have sel reiterate twice that he holds no romantic feelings for nick, nick also has not shown any romantic interest in sel at all. but also i sense nick becoming the antagonist/villain arc. he separated himself from them when he had a chance to go w/ them. he says he has a way of taking down the order & i cant help but feel as though this erebus feeding him these ideas (cause in BM exclusive erebus (if it was him) attacked both anna & nick, so maybe he planted a mesmer chip/bond in nick's head) * & if erebus is behind all these events happening, if he did plan all of this w/ bree/nick/sel then why?
finally i feel as though this is a bree/sel story. like yes this BREE'S story, lets not forget that. but the way tracy went out of her way to give sel more depth, like in LB we the sel POV, then in BM we get mostly sel POV from chptr 51. both covers are a mixture of blue & red which are bree/sel color. also, i think bree/sel are bonded -> i think sel has some leftover root (bree describes it as her beinf wrapped around him) in him like alice when they were fighitng erebus in the woods. if sel does have some root in him then i think this will come into play in the next book when they got to rescue him.
so i think if nick's mom makes an appearance in the next book, it will end in her dying. i got an image of the trio going against erebus, he summons nick's mom, he kills her right in front of him & that sends him over the edge. then he turns against bree becuz he probably will blame her for putting them in this position. sel steps in to protect her.
idk, these are just my thoughts. again The Legendborn Cycle is BREE'S story, her journey. i just wanted to come spew my thoughts. who knows what tracy is going to do. let me know what y'all think
Ughhhhh
Atp imma need Ponk to make a smp and have it just filled with black people because shit is just getting worse. Like imma need Ponk, Berleezy, Cory, Hixen, Jazzyguns, Jojo, black rose, the rest of eezygang, add some upcoming black YouTubers like Forever Nenaa and Ohnoitstusk. Add Fannita and Iyosias to that bitch too. Just black people because it’s always somethinggggggggg with non black content creators.
Like I love the qsmp but tbh this shit is tiring.
I love the lifesteal smp, I love the fanart, and etc but I wish more people would make stuff about Flame and Mane. Like in headcannons in stuff they get like one line and everyone else gets like 5. Like Flame and Mane are cousins, there’s so much potential for angst or something.
Also about the cousins thing Flame literally said it in this video
The conversation starts around 1:08:02. Flame and Mane literally tell Clown they’re cousins.
(Also I find is so funny that Clown is like, you guys are joking and they are like no we are really cousins)
I just watched that clip on twitter of Philza talking about how the qsmp was amazing and how it made him feel valued and etc, etc. I go in them comments and I’m suddenly flooded with memories of being a dsmp fan. People in there talking about how all the smaller creators weren’t valued and I rememberrrrr.
Being a fan of anyone who wasn’t the bigger cc (even then) was hard. I was a Ponk fan (his lore was soooo fucking good (love is dead)) but the way I found out about his lore was so complicated. It was through a TikTok and having to go watch ALL his streams to figure out wtf was going on. I also really like Eret and Foolish lore but that shit was hard to find out. To this day we don’t know what the fuck was going on with those two and how their gods and they knew each other from the past and blah blah blah. Imma not even touch on how Nicki, Puffy, and Hannah were treated. But it sucked to be a fan of smaller creators on the dsmp.
All this to sayyyyy. Ponk is African and speaks fluently in Zulu. I’m manifesting that African creators that speak Zulu get put on the Qsmp so Ponk can get the lore and the love he fucking deservessssss
Manifesting. Manifesting. Manifesting! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Hazel is at camp half blood one summer for a slightly more extended stay than usual. Frank had been extra busy with praetor duties ever since Reyna left to join the Hunters. Hazel had been getting a little bored and it would be nice to see the Greek side of the 7 again.
While she’s staying, the hunters happen to come through. Hazel just wanted to catch up with Reyna but she ends up getting along with most of the hunters really well. She spends a decent amount of time with them while they’re at camp.
Nico seems to get fidgety and agitated the moment the hunters arrive at camp half blood. He speaks with Reyna briefly, but the hunters keep to themselves mostly, especially regarding male campers. But he seems even more apprehensive when he notices Hazel spending time with them. Hazel isn’t sure why until she walks into their cabin one night.
It’s completely dark but she can see Nico is awake, sitting upright on his bed but facing the corner. “Nico?” She questions softly. She runs her hand over the wall and eventually finds a light switch. Nico seems to cringe at the light and rests his head into the corner wall. As Hazel walks over Nico seems to draw more into himself. “Nico?” She repeats, this time placing her hand on his shoulder. Nico turns a bit but doesn’t face her. His head is still down and his hair covers more of his face. Hazel noticed now that his breathing is heavy and uneven. “Are you going with them” he asks in a low even whisper. The one Hazel knows he uses when he’s holding back. “I know you said you and Frank don’t get much time together anymore. You’ve been spending a lot of time with the Hunters.” Hazel was a little taken back for a moment. “I mean, I guess I have been but..” she trailed off for a moment, looking for the right words to explain but she didn’t get the chance, Nico cracked. Suddenly he choked out a sob. His hair fell back and Hazel could see for the first time that he’d been crying. “Please don’t go with them” he pleaded “I can’t- I just-“ his words caught in his throat. They had fought monsters and titans. She’s heard him talk about Tartarus and the bronze jar. But here, in their cabin, He looked more scared and desperate that she’d ever seen him. “I can’t- I can’t loose you to them” he managed, even though his sobs were becoming stronger and more frequent. “Hey, hey” Hazel shushed him and took both his hands “I’m not joining the hunters. I got along with some of the girls but that’s all, I’m not leaving camp Jupiter, I’m not leaving Frank and I’m not leaving you, Nico.” His hands were still shaking as she held them. He made a noise somewhere between a laugh and a sob. “Promise?” Hazel made an X motion over her heart. “Promise.”
Nico pulled Hazel into him and held her tightly. Hazel was a little surprised, but she’d gotten to know this soft side of her brother. “Besides” she said “You still have to be the flower boy at my wedding, right?”
Legendborn and Bloodmarked Spoilers
I’ve been seeing people are conflicted about Nick having a villain arc. Some people think he will others think he won’t.
Personally I think he will, we find out in Legendborn he lost his mother when he was a child because of the Order. Now in Bloodmarked he lost his father because of the Order. He lost Selwyn because of the Orders bullshit. (Because if they just had accepted Bree in the beginning he wouldn’t had to suck Brees powers which causes him to succumb to his blood. (But without all the shenanigans we wouldn’t have met valacki (don’t know how to spell his name sorry)) also since him and Selwyn are bonded we aren’t even taking about “the grieving” which we saw multiple characters who have been going through it and how it’s effected them. Now he’s lost Bree, he doesn’t know she went on her free will so she could get Selwyn healed but now he thinks the Order has her.
This man has lost almost everything he loves, what else does he have to lose? The order? He’s about to destroy the order any means necessary and I mean he might even try to kill Bree. 
I think their will be a time skip like a big one, maybe a year or two. This is gonna be a year or two of Nick being alone. Selwyn will most likely come back but I feel like Nick will be to far gone.
But what do y’all think? I need to have a conversation about this book and no one I know in real life has ever read it so, any theories?
Both other than that, stan Valaki!
GOD i need to yap abt flames loyalty to mane bc i find it endlessly fascinating that he will put up w so much shit and do things he himself doesnt particularly like or believe in simply bc mane asks it of him. bc mane is his teammate, and flames sense of loyalty to him bc of that is possibly the closest thing LS has to a relationship w unconditional loyalty.
Tw rape
Bro I love that tumblr and Wattpad have x readers black readers but fuck why does it always have to be about sex. Like why can’t we get a 10k word fanfic about us falling in love and being loved gently with some background drama or action. It’s always sex or rape which is low key weird. Like I get people are into that or write it because of trauma but it’s always sex, violent sex, or just literally rape. Or they’re racist stereotypes in the fanfic which is a whole other story. On Ao3 they’re x reader fanfics that are fun, have adventure, a little bit of drama, and a splash of sex. Also it’s with the same people it’s either attack on Titan, Jujutsu Kaisen, or My hero Academia. Which is cool but it’s usually only them. At this point imma try and make a x black reader fanfic because this shit is exhausting. But I have work so someone dm if they wanna work on a fanfic together because things need to low key change.
Devotion duo and Blindfold brothers parallels are making me insane… like a yellow and red duo who are super close and very dangerous together that also understand how the server truly works and are willing to do anything to keep the server active, even weaken themself
Spoilers for house of the dragons episode 10
Hotd episode 10 was leaked and most of us saw what happened to poor Luke. I find it really annoying how people are defending Aemond and this is coming from a person who likes Aemond (I’m team black tho don’t get it twisted) Stop defending this man. He chased after Luke on VHAGAR. Vhagar is in the first generation of Westeros dragons. The biggest Dragon in the show. I’m pretty sure Agon the conqueror used her in his conquest, so she’s a war veteran. Aemond chased Luke, what the fuck did he think was gonna happen? That he could mess with Luke a bit then fly off after? NO! I’m pretty sure dragons can feel their riders intent and Aemond doesn’t like Luke (for obvious reasons). Vhagar felt Aemond hated Luke and killed him.
Do I think it was an accident? OBVIOUSLY! I don’t think Aemond wanted to kill Luke just like how I don’t think he really wants this war. But his actions are a direct responsibility for the war starting. He shouldn’t have used Vhagar like she is some toy, Vhagar is a dragon! It’s like giving a child a gun and being surprised when someone gets killed. And I understand people are saying “he lost control of his dragon!” Okay? So did Luke, his dragon attacked back trying to protect him because his dragon was scared for Luke and his life! It doesn’t make what Aemond did right. Now because of his actions we are going to have to sit and watch the blood and cheese arc.
