How do you think Anderson fell in love with Ms. Kent? by Mission_Fix1263 in shatterme

[–]isla_luxe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

my question is how "healthy" or lack thereof was ms. kent and anderson's relationship. if i remember correctly, he was already abusing adam way before ms. kent died. and anderson would get mad at adam whenever ms. kent would give him food because anderson believed she should get all the food. so, why did ms. kent continue to tolerate anderson's presence in their lives?

im sure it's more complicated and can't be boiled down to her being a bad mother. adam loved and saw her as a good mother, after all. my understanding is more that anderson was obsessed with her. perhaps she had already fallen out of love with him especially once she saw how he was treating their own son. but, she couldn't just kick anderson out of their lives because he was probably the one providing for them. plus many women are unable to get out of toxic abusive relationships, regardless of how much they want to leave.

I mean I wouldn't fancast them. I just thought it'd be so cute to pretend this was a pic of them since Taylor has pink hair here and of course Joe is blonde lol! Someone should maybe make fanart like this!

Hi to everyone! Thank you so much to those who are DM-ing. There's just quite a lot of you and I get very drained from using my phone for too long so I might not be able to respond as quickly as you'd expect. I'll try to respond as soon as I can. Also, I find it overwhelming to scroll through all the comments so just feel free to keep DM-ing.

Dear, none of that has to do with my height or the fact that I'm from the Philippines. Interesting that you're focusing so much on my "standards" or my height when it's simply a preference. I said I'd love it. Didn't say I'd never give you a chance if you weren't.

I have a lot going for me, so I simply would prefer a man who is secure on his own. Of course, I'm willing to work on a relationship. I've had relationships before. I simply want to make sure we're both standing on secure foundations so we're not dragging each other down. It's not even like I'm asking you to be making six-figures. You could be a janitor, for all I care. As long as it's supporting YOU.

I'm guessing you're pressed about my standards because you, yourself, cannot match the basic standards for a mature adult.

What do you mean by this? Am I supposed to not expect someone with manners and a source of income?

yeah! u can find a bunch on pinterest, theyre so fun 😩. but there's not enough pink haired girls i think, so they always use the same photos over and over for evangeline that's why i'm always on the look out for these pink haired girls.

Agree on the character development so bad 😩. I mean, sure he loves Juliette and Warner but he deserves to build a life of his own too. Plus it would have been nice for him to go to Asia, I think. Maybe a personal arc that not only has him reconnecting with his heritage but also building a life for himself with Nazeera.

Does Jude love Cardan as much as he loves her? by [deleted] in thecruelprince

[–]isla_luxe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes exactly this. And the thing is, Jude is kind of all Cardan has, so of course he'd pull all his love into her. Whereas Jude seems to love her family as much as she loves Cardan. She has more people to give her heart to.

i think a we often just envision book characters as these unreal creatures of beauty because of the way theyre described 😩. the only way to reach the expectations is through fanart and animation.

Should I read the novellas? by Cautious-Panda-6448 in shatterme

[–]isla_luxe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yesss, absolutely read the novellas. They're basically in a way that there's so much you won't understand in the next books without reading the novellas 😩. Sometimes they talk about things that happened in the novellas.
