Facts
Jude and Cardan went swimming in the Mortal World. Look how happy they are.
I don’t know who the artist is.
Cardan: I have a problem.
Jude: Kill it.
Cardan: Can you chill for like, two seconds?
No. No she can’t.
there are some verses that represent them
Jude:I am the master mind, he’s my accomplice.
Cardan:You’re only still alive because I made a promise.
You don’t understand.
I am obsessed with them.
And that’s how you summon Jurdan shippers.
Can we all agree?
Folk(lore) of the Air - Cruel Prince/Exile combo because it fits so perfectly!!
A new sketch featuring a scene from The Wicked King, behind the throne room, when Cardan is seeking Jude’s tutelage on how to seduce the enemy. This was voted on by my Patreons (submitted by Kimberly H.) for the October Sketch-a-Wish!

A little Prince Cardan scribble that became more than a scribble.
I love this problematic boi so much

Jude and Cardan would name their daughter Alice because Alice’s adventures in wonderland is their favorite book <3
Alice Greenbriar Duarte sounds really powerful.
yep fav headcanon.
so i’ve seen this photoshoot of olivia rodrigo and she looks somehow identical to this fanart of jude duarte??? i think i love the idea of her as jude
fan art made by: @phantomrin!!
jude:*pretending to be taryn, talking about locke* i loved him.
cardan:*knows that she is actually jude* sometimes i think you did.
so no one talks about this scene where cardan DID KNOW that she was jude. he looked absorbed by his owns thoughts because he knew that locke hurted jude’s feelings, he knew that she actually loved locke too. AND IT BREAKS MY HEART.
I finished reading Queen of Nothing yesterday and then I watched Swan Princess, and everything Rothbart said started to sound like things Jude would say and now I can’t unsee it.
“You have much to lose and I have nothing. You may win in the end, you may ensorcel me and hurt me and humiliate me, but I will make sure you lose everything I can take from you on the way down.” - Jude in The Cruel Prince
“Mithridatism, it’s called. Isn’t that a funny name? The process of eating poison to build up immunity. So long as I don’t die from it, I’ll be harder to kill.” - Jude in The Cruel Prince
“Power is much easier to acquire than it is to hold on to.” - the entire theme of The Wicked King
Cardan: “She is my wife and the rightful High Queen of Elfhame.”
Jude: **raids Cardan’s closet** **asks Taryn for wardrobe help** **asks Tatterfell to do her hair**
- The Queen of Nothing
And as a bonus, Jude riding up to the giant serpent at the end of Queen of Nothing:
