"Драконья сага. Королева ульев" Сазерленд Туи Т. — отзыв

И подтверждения того, что Беладонна и Ива - пара.
1. “It’s not that bad here,” Willow said. “Right? I mean … I think it’s better with, um … interesting company.” She gave Sundew that crinkle-sparkle smile face that made all the words in Sundew’s head run around bumping into one another like disoriented moths.
Do NOT smile back at her, Sundew. She is fundamentally wrong about your entire life purpose! WHAT IS YOUR FACE DOING, SUNDEW?
2. “Shhhh,” Willow said softly. “You don’t have to do anything right this second. Just be here. Breathe.”
No one had ever told Sundew to “breathe” before. Her first instinct was to scoff that she already WAS breathing and she did it rather often and was quite good at it, thanks very much. But there was something in Willow’s face, in her eyes as she gazed down at Sundew’s talons, that made her impossible to scoff at.
They stood like that for a moment. One of Willow’s graceful wings was a breath away from brushing Sundew’s, like a butterfly hovering just over a leaf. Sundew wondered if the butterfly was as aware of it as the leaf was. She wasn’t sure if her heartbeat was slowing down or Willow’s was speeding up, but at some point, she realized they had synced.
3. Sundew didn’t know what to say. Belladonna would have told her to push the other LeafWing into the pond and yell at her about the Tree Wars and how important it was to go kill Wasp. She would have pointed out that Sundew had a duty to marry Mandrake and raise superpowered danger-babies to destroy their enemies. Belladonna would have said there was nothing more important than their vengeance, and that Willow was not worth talking to.
But Belladonna was a liar, and Willow was the only dragon who’d ever given Sundew this all-over-inside-sparkles feeling.
She let her wing brush Willow’s lightly. “Guess what, I’ve made a decision.”
“You have?”
“Yes.” Sundew cleared her throat and made a portentous face. “I have decided to spare that odious frog’s life in your honor.”
“Oh!” Willow laughed. “That’s too bad. I had just decided to camp out by this pond until it emerges so I could murder it for you.
4. Sundew twined her tail around Willow’s. “The most heroic, romantic thing ever, but totally unnecessary. You know Belladonna couldn’t keep me locked up, even if she wanted to."
5. Willow crinkled her snout at Sundew. “Hazel is a friend of mine,” she said, “like all the dragonets our age in the village. But if what you’re really asking is ‘Hey, Willow, have you by any chance fallen in love with some other dragon while I abandoned you to go start a war and frolic with SilkWings?’ the answer is no, I haven’t, you’re still the only dragon for me, even when you ask silly veiled questions.” She tossed a nut at Sundew, which bounced off her nose before she caught it.

Это всё за уши притянуто)))
Моя дочь и ее подруги постоянно "кого-то обожают", - то друг друга, то милых котиков, то альпак... постоянно обнимаются и везде ходят вместе... Впрочем, как и большинство их ровесников. При этом, их сложно заподозрить в причастности к лгбт культуре! 🤣
Crush - это не сленг, а очень часто употребимое слово, означает "быть без ума" от кого-то. Особо эмоциональные девочки частенько повторяют "Бузова такая классная, я без ума от нее")))) Но это же просто эмоциональные слова и они совершенно не означают, что человек их сказавший, лгбтшник!
Просто кому-то очень хочется так думать! Такая мысль не приходила в голову?!😉
