Marlfox - Tumblr Posts
Gelltor: What time does the judgmental express arrive?
Predak: Mokkan and Lantur come back at 5
Yes absolutely and now that you mention it I will never feel peace again
Am I the only one who kinda wanted Dann to be Abbott and Song to be Redwall Champion..?
A Photo For Every Book I Read This Year:
Marlfox by Brian Jacques
This is my opportunity to talk about how much I LOVE the Marlfox siblings and their stupid little conflict dynamic. They’re all so dumb and egotistical and amazing.
Gelltor: Stop lurking!
Mokkan: I'm not lurking, I'm standing quietly in the shadows.
*Spoiler Warning*
The baby owls that Taunoc and Orocca gave birth to in The Long Patrol- Nutwing, Nutbeak, and Nutclaw- are actually written about again later! Nutbeak and Nutclaw leave the Abbey when they are of-age, but Nutwing stays behind. He and the silly old owl in Marlfox are one in the same!
He befriends Friar Butty and lives in the gatehouse. He keeps a relationship with Cregga Rose Eyes, who he met when he was but a babe. He gives his life helping prevent Ascrod from invading the Abbey.

Dann: Oh how you hate to be wrong.
Song: I wouldn’t know, I’m not familiar with the sensation.
“However, Soll’s depressed state did not last too long. He sniffed quite a bit, wiped his eyes and stood up smiling broadly. ‘Well, that’s enough o’ that my liddle dearies. There’s plenty o’ creatures in this land to upset me, without my upsettin’ myself. Life is given t’be lived happily, that’s true enough!”
-Sollertree ‘Marlfox’ by Brian Jacques
Purely self indulgent character design for Marlfoxes (from Brian Jacques' Redwall novels)..... They're described as 'mottled' and I've never seen anyone show that!
(based off our grey foxes, because they have really fun designs)
Dann: You enjoy silently judging everyone, don't you? Song: When have I ever judged someone silently.
Dann: Just don’t tell anyone.
Song: You want me to lie to my father and to Cregga?
Dann: Is that a problem?
Song: No.
Song: Dann, how do you feel about helping me commit murder?
Dann, in his diary: Dear Diary, today Song asked me on a date
Song: I hate to say ‘I told you so’—
Dann: No, you don’t. You would marry 'I told you so’ and have a baby with it and buy adjoining burial plots.
Mokkan: You know, we Marlfoxes didn’t get to where we are by being afraid of hard work. Mokkan: We did it by killing and enslaving everyone who tried to oppose us.
Song: When are you going to learn, Dann? I'm always right about everything.
Mokkan: I would appreciate it if one person in this family would not assume that I'm an evil lecherous hump. Predak: Nobody's saying that, Mokkan. Gelltor: Yeah, we're pretty much just giving each other significant glances and laughing incessantly.
I love "best friends forever" Song and Dann. They remind me of Mariel and Dandin, who are also a great pair. They're so fun. I love them.
I guess, if your name is Dan(n), you're destined for a qpr.
Dann: Song, can I talk to you for a second? Song: Yeah, what’s up? Lemme guess. You and Dippler are having problems and you want me to teach you how to kiss? Dann: What? No, stop that. I know how to kiss. I’ve read books.
