FITZ GROWING UP HAS THREE PARENTAL FIGURES IN HIS LIFE, JUST LIKE THE FOOL. IT'S TWO MEN AND A WOMAN FOR BOTH OF THEM.
The list of parallels growssss
#i don't know why i'm so obsessed with the parallels between fitz and the fool#i think it just started with me finding some similarities between them and thinking 'oh neat they reflect each other#that fits into the series narrative and themes'#and then beginning to find more and more parallels between them each one smaller and more obscure than the last#to the point where i increasingly feel like that conspiracy board meme from always sunny#this may genuinely be a coincidence#but!!!#it's not just that the fool and fitz go through similar arcs it's how from the very beginning we get all those pointers to them being#two halves of one whole or intrisically linked#i'm not explaining this very well but this stuff makes me go crazy rote#liveblog#kind of?#btw i know that this is up for debate but i always saw burrich chade and patience as fitz's parent figures#i see his relationship with verity as more of an uncle/older brother sort of thing and then shrewd is obviously the grandfather#(i mean even the fact that fitz at first thought that chade might be shrewd's child shows his comparative view of the two of them)#and chivalry is (especially in the first trilogy) an absence more than anything else#anyway these are just my thoughts#this was definitely one of those 'WAIT A MINUTE' *sits upright in the middle of the night* kind of posts lol#rote#oops accidentally didn't separate that tag earlier#oh well
