↳ Alina and Fedyor


"You know him?" Nikolai asked.


"Yes," I said. "He saved my life." Fedyor had once put himself between me and a swarm of Fjerdan assassins.


He bowed again. “It was my great honour.”




Why did this tickle me so? It just DID. Also, that dude could totally play Fedyor.

Begin as you mean to go on

lbardugo:



I’m a firm believer in starting the New Year on the right foot i.e. on January 1st, 2014, WRITE SOMETHING.


In that spirit, I’m thinking of hosting a few writing sprints on 1/1. They’ll start at noon (a civilized hour for the hangover I intend to be nursing) and the goal will be to work on any project you have brewing.


Anyone interested in joining?



Aw yissss. Very excited to see so many people are up for this. I’ll be using hashtag #BAYMTOGO here and on twitter (@lbardugo) and we’ll do 30 minute sprints starting at noon PST. Join in for all or just one.


And remember, you don’t have to be writing or even revising. You can use the time to focus on any project that you want to pursue in the New Year. The goal is to put aside all distraction and spend a short time focusing wholly on work that matters to you.


It’s a promise to yourself for the coming year: Begin as you mean to go on.

" You know the problem with heroes and saints, Nikolai?" I asked as I closed the book’s cover and headed for the door. " They always end up dead."

↳ Max Irons


"I missed you every hour. And you know what the worst past was? It caught me completely by surprise. I’d catch myself walking around trying to find you, not for any reason, just out of habit, because I’d seen something that I wanted to tell you about or because I wanted to hear your voice. And then I’d realize that you weren’t there anymore, and every time, every single time, it was like having the wind knocked out of me. I’ve risked my life for you. I’ve walked half the length of Ravka for you, and I’d do it again and again and again just to be with you, just to starve with you and freeze with you and hear you complain about hard cheese every day. So don’t tell me we don’t belong together."




I have a confession to make: I’ve never actually seen Max Irons in anything. Other than my tumblr feed.

eventhepartofyouthatlovedhim:




“Why waste my anger on you when the fault is mine? I should have anticipated another betrayal from you, one more mad grasp at some kind of childish ideal. But I seem to be a victim of my own wishes where you are concerned.” His expression hardened. “What have you come here for, Alina?”


 I answered him honestly. “I wanted to see you.”


 I caught the briefest glimpse of surprise before his face shuttered again. “There are two thrones on that dais. You could see me any time you liked.”



oho! I like.
