MY ROYAL COURT BOOK TAG

Hello readers. It has been a while since I published something, thank college and work. I decided to browse on Twitter after I dragged myself from Animal Crossing. Writing this post is a better alternative to writing the conclusion to the first of two English essays due this week, help! Thanks, @alysinbookland for tagging me. Sorry for being sassy in this post.

1. Kingdom: Every Court Needs a Kingdom

WHAT FICTIONAL WORLD WOULD YOU RULE OVER?

I'm going to give the most basic answer, Velaris. It's gorgeous, and I won't be expecting an invasion anytime soon. Plus, the inner circle! They're going to be jealous of my wingspan.

2. Consort: Life At The Top Can Get Lonely

PICK YOUR PARTNER IN CRIME (BOOK CRUSH)

Baby blogger Vivien could have picked this in a heartbeat, but more mature, sleep-deprived Vivien can't think of one at the moment. Enjoy this picture of Christian Yu instead!

 

3. Heir: Someone Needs to Keep Your Legacy Going

PICK A ROYAL CHARACTER WHO DESERVES TO RULE AFTER YOU

I'm not sure if Kestrel from The Winner's Trilogy is considered royal, definitely highborn, but she's someone I think would bring the most honor to my legacy. I need a smart ruler, mostly to fix any mistakes I might have made, lol. I am Caligula!!!! 

4. Royal Guard: Being a Ruler Comes With Many Dangers

PICK A CHARACTER YOU TRUST TO HAVE YOUR BACK

Arya. I've never read A Song of Ice and Fire, but I did watch Game of Thrones, which is totally better, that was sarcasm. I think Arya is super badass, even though her story made no sense in the last season. Where is this going? Why? How? What?! NO!

5. Adviser: Its Nice to Have Someone to Blame When Things Go Wrong

PICK A CHARACTER WHO USUALLY HAS GREAT ADVICE

I need an old person that has experienced things. Old... definitely not Dumbledore. Professor McGonagall? Ooooo, yeah, I like that. 

6. Spy Master: Secrets Can Make or Break a Kingdom

PICK A CHARACTER WHO WOULD BE GREAT AT DISCOVERING NEFARIOUS PLOTS AND GATHERING LEVERAGE ON YOUR ENEMIES

When in Velaris, do as the Valerians do: Azriel. 

7. Diplomat: You Need Someone to Make Favorable Trade Deals, or Perhaps Prevent a War

PICK A CHARACTER WHO’S GREAT AT CONVINCING/MANIPULATING OTHERS

Oooooo, I love conniving and manipulative characters. The most rotted and gutted Gila monster of them all, Locke from The Folk of Air Trilogy. I take back that part about loving conniving characters because I hate Locke. I like a conniving, likable protagonist.

8. General: Sometimes War Is Inevitable

PICK A STRATEGIC CHARACTER TO DEFEND YOUR KINGDOM AND LEAD YOUR ARMY

Shikamaru from Naruto. Chunin exams, Shinobi War, Asuma's revenge, etc. Enough said.

9. Court Magician: When Brutal Force Doesn’t Work, Magic is the Answer

PICK A CHARACTER WITH USEFUL POWER

Adelina Amouteru from The Young Elites. She has the ability to make things invisible, and weave illusions. Not saying ruling with fear is the best way, but it is a way. Plus, I have time to escape while everyone is pissing their pants and calling for their mommies.

10. Stable Master: All Life Must Flourish In Your Kingdom

PICK AN ANIMAL COMPANION

I love alpacas! My kingdom will flourish because their wool is profitable. China had silk, I have alpaca wool. Look how cute they are! 

11. Court Jester: Life As a Ruler Can Get Stressful

PICK A BOOK/CHARACTER THAT MADE YOU LAUGH

Ben Starling from Paper Towns. 

12. Usurper: There Will Always Be Someone After Your Throne

PICK A VILLAIN WHO WOULD MAKE A WORTHY OPPONENT

I'd like to see them try with my army!

13. Nobles: The Courts Life Blood

WHO DO YOU TAG?

Everyone.
