I sure hope that title got you interested.

In 1905, german poet Christian Morgenstern published the Galgenlieder (“gallow songs”), a collection of poems based on puns, wordplay and surreal humour. My father introduced me to them when a was a little girl. So imagine my surprise when I read them again as an QT fan, and found this.

I tried my best to translate the poem into english, so you can join in on the fun. I hope the humor doesn’t get lost too much. Maybe some of you understand german, so the original is there for comparison.

I walked into a home goods store today (for the first time this year?!) and immediately spotted a mug for Attolia:

( {so let's see it} )

And then, a candle for Eddis:

;D

(Ignore the crazy bookworm cackling to herself in aisle 3.)

What things have you seen "out of context" that made you think of Queen's Thief?

Watch a cute video of wild goats taking over a Welsh town under lockdown. I have a feeling that this is what Eddis is like all the time...

Do any of these belong to you,

So, I just read that Indonesia blocked Tumblr in their country for "indecency."

Gov't Says Will Unblock Tumblr if It 'Cleans Up' Content

*eyes #onehotpieceofattolianmanflesh

I think we reprobates may've broken Tumblr for Indonesia. Sorry, Indonesia...

There are Indonesian translations of the books, so sign the petition if you want to help your fellow reprobates access all the QT, MWT, and HarperCollins content on Tumblr again!

Part of the reason for this joke is that #thickasthieves was a questionable tag on Tumblr before the fandom took it over. I still don't know why... I was really confused when all these weird blogs started following me. True story.

The following news item set me wondering...
1. Will there ever be a King's Own Regiment within the Attolian army?
2. What would they have for a mascot?

There's a pretty hilarious string of reblogs that have been going around the QT tags on Tumblr the past few days.

I am a totally innocent bystander in all of this, by the way.

Can you believe it's been six months since Thick as Thieves was released? Thanks for giving us a great journey with our new favorite character ~~well my new favorite character~~ this year, Megan, and here's your TaT themed card to celebrate.

Don't forget to sign the card, everyone.

Happy Birthday! 🎂 🎉

( Open the Card )

You get a poem too, in honor of Kamet's poems.

I know you're not suppose to string together limericks like this, but I can do anything I want! You'll notice a few fandom references. I have no shame.

( Beware Birthday Poetry )

Happy Thanksgiving week, everyone!

Ornon's sheep are wishing Sounis a Happy 12th Birthday!!!

Who would have thought that this community would still be around twelve years
after this epic post?

In honor of

sounis 's birthday tell us, people, what do you want to see in the next, final book? Nothing is too over-the-top, crazy, or fan-service-ish. Tell us your ideas, reprobates! What do you hope happens?

Ursula Vernon, who just won the Best Novelette Hugo, stopped in Iceland en route to WorldCon. She was with her husband Kevin, his cousin, Amy, & their friend Tina. They storified the trip, here:

There're lots of gorgeous photos & great snark.

I used Plot Generator to write myself a Costis/Kamet fanfic. It went better that I could have possibly hoped.

For example, I think it managed to sum up Kamet's character really well:

"Kamet gulped. He glanced at his own reflection. He was an Even-tempered, Suspicious, tea drinker with small hair and tall lips. His friends saw him as a smiling, squidgy scribe. Once, he had even saved a colossal kitten that was stuck in a drain."

Intrigued? Check out the full story.

This has already been making the rounds on Tumblr, but I wanted to share it here.

Epic Reads posted a hilarious article about which QT character is most likely to murder you. However, the holder of the number one spot shouldn't come as a surprise! XD

Happy Thick As Thieves day!

aged_crone requested poems in celebration, but kindly allowed limericks instead. So, while hanging out in Chatzy during the countdown to midnight,

1221bookworm and I came up with the following:

( Limerick under the cut, because potentially mild spoilers (though it should be noted that neither of us have read the book yet, so our spoilers are purely theoretical). )

:D

Feel free to contribute limericks of your own devising!

A Very Happy Easter to everyone who is celebrating! To add to your joy (I hope!) here is my entry for the Queen's Peeps contest.

1. I did not look at the other entries before creating this, (mostly because I didn't want to be discouraged if somebody else did a more brilliant version of the same scene.)
2. Also, I've decided our author is cruel (though I love her anyway), because nothing will stick to a peep! And they are also strangely reluctant to stay where you put them, and have an awkward tendency to melt in the sun.

But anyway, the title of this scene is: WE EAT THE CHICKEN NOW! ( Picture and description after the cut )

To promote the release of "Catching Fire," the "Hunger Games" actors played a rather morbid game of would you rather. Clearly, we need to do this for the QT universe!

Let me know your answers and reasons in the comments.

( Rather morbid as well... )

After Lady Jane's splendid sequence of pictures about the Very Long Wait, a collection of snark Attolis Eugenides himself would be proud of, I thought you might all like to see a bona fide string of emails from the evening Thick as Thieves was announced.

I haven't made any crack in a long while, so it's time re-earn my Sounis court title. ~~I'm bringing court titles back!~~

I've had this idea for awhile now, but I didn't feel it would be nice to Megan while we were still waiting for news of book 5. Now that we have a release date for "Thick As Thieves," I decided it's time to laugh at all that trauma now behind us.

The following is based on a true story. Sorry, Megan... I'm not complaining. I promise! We love you!

Warning: Picture and GIF heavy, so if you have a slow computer or internet, be careful.

( Very Image Heavy - May Break Your Computer )

Any funny waiting for book five stories you'd like to share? What did you do to celebrate the annoucement of Thick as Thieves?
