Found Family Tournament Round 1 Part 21 Group 103
Propaganda and further pictures under the cut
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Qifrey's Atelier: Qifrey, Olruggio, Agott, Riche, Tetia, Coco & Brushbuddy
Treasure Hunters: Jacob Reckless & Fox (& Will & Clara) (& Valiant)
Submissions are still open!
Qifrey's Atelier:
It's just 2 gay dad's doing their best to raise 4 preteen girls. They teach them magic, and how to cook, and that they are so very loved, no matter what.
Supposedly Qifrey is the magic teacher assigned to these four girls, and Olruggio's job is to keep an eye on Qifrey. The girls stay at Qifrey's Atelier (basically like a tiny school) and they live there. HOWEVER, ACCORDING QIFREY HIMSELF (and many of the other kids and Olruggio) THEY CONSIDER THE ATELIER TO BE "HOME". Olruggio and Qifrey act as paternal figures and basically raise them. They live on the countryside, despite living in cities being the norm. Olruggio does his job very poorly because of his bias towards Qifrey, being his roommate/best friend/husband, every shady thing that Qifrey makes he lets it slide. There's also have a whole spin off dedicated to them cooking nice meals for the girls. They also have a pet: a fluffy small creature known as brushbug.
So they are basically a found family of gay cottagecore witches.
Treasure Hunters:
Their friendship is so poignant. Fox is a human shapeshifter (guess what animal she changes into) who spends a lot of time in her animal form -which makes her age quicker as an human- who got injured as a kid as she was fleeing from her abusive family. She was discovered by Jacob who delivered her from the trap (she was in her vixen form) and they became friends. The thing is, Jacob isn't from Mirrorworld. He's from our world and he shared his life between the two until some bad stuff happens and his two worlds collide.
All the books have fairy tales elements (Jacob and his brother Will are named after the Grimm Brothers, Mirrorworld is full of fairy tales stuff, Jacob's always after treasures such as The Glass Slipper and Rapunzel's hair, Bluebeard plays an important role at some point, etc)
It's also a very long slowburn (resolved toward the 60th chapter of the third book of the -of yet unfinished- series, which was published um… five years after the first one ? I read the 1st towards the start of middle school and the 3rd in the middle of high school, I think. Mirrorworlders are really patient)
The book has illustrations by the author, of both of them separately but not together

What do you mean this wasn't exactly what happened in book 4?
John: William?
Will: Yes, it's me. Your son. And it's "Will", Dad.
John: No. "William". I named you.
Will: You ruined my life!
John: How could I ruin your life?! I wasn't even there!

Can we just talk about the fact that the fandom is so small? Seriously, books are absolutely awesome, Cornelia offers us a whole universe, and there are twenty people who talk about it? The fourth book was not even translated into French (I am French, but luckily I know enough about English to be able to read the book in that language anyway.) Why are there so many people talking about these books?

Mercy.
Word count: 587
Warnings: NSFW suggestive - no actual smut - but still...not for minors.
There were just some things that Hentzau would never do. Begging for mercy was one of those things.
The evening had started simple enough. They were having dinner at the palace as they often did. Kami’en frequently asked Hentzau to bring his fiancé to dine with them. It was a good excuse for Kami’en not to have to dine with Amalie alone. He and Hentzau could discuss whatever political matter was going on in the world while she was bribed to talk to Amalie…more like she was bribed to listen to Amalie.
They weren’t the only ones who had been invited tonight. Several high ranking military personnel sat around the large dining table. Hentzau’s lover would much rather had been talking to them than listening to Amalie complain about the way the chef had cut her lamb. She tried to tune the Empress out, but it was like trying to ignore a fly buzzing in your ear, and damn it, she was growing bored.
She glanced around the table to make sure no one had their attention on her. They didn’t. They were all focused on whatever Draevyn was saying about a report he had received about Albion. Including Hentzau.
Good.
She kept her eyes locked on the Empress and made sure the fake smile on her face was believable. As far as anyone was concerned, her attention was strictly on whatever the doll-faced ruler in front of her was saying. Leaning just slightly to her left, she brushed he hand along her lover’s thigh. He didn’t look over at her, but she felt him tense under her fingertips. The fake smile plastered on her face became genuine as she felt him shift in his seat. How far could she take this without the others catching on?
There was only one way to find out.
She moved her fingers closer to the inside of his thigh and began to draw patterns along the sensitive part of his leg. She started by mimicking the flowers on the Empress’s dress. Then her own name. Then his. Her fingers creeping farther up as she went.
Hentzau’s focus had left the Albion conversation. He kept his eyes on the others surrounding them, but all his mind could think about was what he was going to do to her when they got home. She knew better than to tease him like this. Especially in front of his friends. He kept his face neutral and hoped that no one would ask him his opinion on the topic at hand. Chancing a glance at her, he noticed the rise and fall of her chest growing a bit more rapid. She may have done this to get a rise out of him, but she forgot one very important thing. Goyl sense of smell was so much stronger than a human’s, and everyone here would know what she was doing to him, and herself, if she didn’t stop soon.
He shifted in his seat slightly and grabbed her wrist. The tip of his thumb’s claw lingered on her soft flesh right above the vein. A warning. He’d never hurt her, but it was best for her to remember who she had fallen in love with. It was good to remember just who she was teasing with those delicate fingers of hers.
He wouldn’t ask her for mercy, but by the end of night, she’d be begging him for it, and only when he saw the first light of dawn, would he consider giving in to her.

Newest addition to my Reckless/MirrorWorld themed shelf
Since today I've a new addition to my Reckless/MirrorWorld themed novel series shelf. It's adorable!
It already has a decorative chest statue (gifted to me by a sibling of mine), an old key which is hidden behind the novels and was part of a Saint Nicholas Day surprise I recieved this year and a legit swan feather which I found this summer (while making sure the swans themselves were somewhere else at my neighbourhood and I actually picked the most clean looking and biggest feather; I did pick it up while my hand was in a plastic bag and made sure to give it a good clean when I came home with it).
But now it also has (a) Fox :)

Not to mention it's part of my 2022 Christmas haul.
The pictures belong to me, obviously.

How am I just now finding out about the colour of revenge??? I haven't particularly kept up with Cornelia Funke, but I do search her every 6 months or so. But HOLY SHIT ANOTHER INKWORLD BOOK IM FREAKING OUT.
I also found those GORGEOUS STUNNING BEAUTIFUL 20th anniversary editions and I must admit I am trying very hard to not spend an obscene amount of money on a copy.

"And how are you?"
Me, internally: The tea in book 4 did taste weird to Nerron. He could have gotten suspicious or stopped drinking it, but he trusted Will and Will had given it to him to drink and so he did and we have yet to see him work through that. He still has to go through the aftermath of the one person he truly opened up to, the friend who so openly appreciated having him around, leaving him behind like that.
Me: "Great, thanks!"

okay last inkheart post for today but finding out (in original unwritten canon) the reason dustfinger was gone all the time was supposed to be bc he was accidentally and unknowingly going to the mirrorworld is so fucking funny. imagine thinking you're going on a two-day trip and coming back and everyone's pissed at you because it's apparently been a month since you left. he's spent so much of his life being gaslit by the universe that he just thinks something is wrong with him. peak humor.
