Our Lady Kira Nerys in Badda-Bing Badda-Bang! My aunt (who watched the show in the 90s) didn’t recognize her at first because I made her look so sweet. I need to draw the Intendant, soon—it’s sort of crazy that I haven’t done it yet.

In the past few weeks I was so devastated by the ending of TLHOD that everytime I thought about it I felt a deep sense of grief.
I think Estraven's death was so unnecessary, because at that point Genly had already called down his ship. It was already over... beyond the blood-that-joins-the-keystone symbolism. And so I couldn't get over it and imagine something different, what good would that do?
Now, after a few weeks, I am ready to imagine a different ending in my head, one where Estraven is injured but makes it past the border and maybe for a while Genly doesn't really know what was of him. He is worried Estraven might have died but hopes he's still alive, but since Estraven is still banished Genly can't ask information openly. Then, after a few weeks, he manages to get a break from his new job, and instead of going to Estre he goes to Orgoreyn. In Mishnory, he is a guest of one of his collegues from the Ekumen. And as they are having breakfast one morning shortly after Genly's arrival, the doorbell rings and Estraven appears, out of nowhere, as always knowing everything about Genly's whereabouts. And they hug and cry and are happy.
Perhaps I should write a fic...

Books read in 2024: THE LEFT HAND OF DARKNESS by Ursula K. Le Guin
A profound love between two people involves, after all, the power and chance of doing profound hurt. It would never have occurred to me before that night that I could hurt Estraven.
