almost a thousand years from now, the Moonweaver will still wear the face of a beloved older sister when some little fey upstart tries to poach her followers through an elaborate pyramid scheme. and she will be carrying the memories of those she wasn't prepared to leave behind when a little blue tiefling tries to save her best friend in the whole world, the god she created out of love. and she will not be the one to separate them.

Aww as a cleric, Nia is gonna have to talk to Liana every day now to prepare her spells for the day.

Cool juxtaposition to Opal whose original warlock patron was Ted!

And then triangulation to a secret third thing, where Jester isn't a warlock with a fey patron but a cleric!

All these relationships are so fascinating and different.

Asmodeus: *looks like the person you love most* (derogatory)

Moonweaver: *looks like the person you love most* (affectionate. ecstatic. IS the person you love most. there is no deception. the moonweaver is your sister, and she loves you.)

To be fair, it's not the wing-ed being smiting them that makes them wrong. Wing-ed beings smiting around left and right isn't a good basis for a sense of morality.

Something I find incredibly cool is that they’ve found neandertal bone tools made from polished rib bones, and they couldn’t figure out what they were for for the life of them. 

Until, of course, they showed it to a traditional leatherworker and she took one look at it and said “Oh yeah sure that’s a leather burnisher, you use it to close the pores of leather and work oil into the hide to make it waterproof. Mine looks just the same.” 

“Wait you’re still using the exact same fucking thing 50,000 years later???”

“Well, yeah. We’ve tried other things. Metal scratches up and damages the hide. Wood splinters and wears out. Bone lasts forever and gives the best polish. There are new, cheaper plastic ones, but they crack and break after a couple years. A bone polisher is nearly indestructible, and only gets better with age. The more you use a bone polisher the better it works.”

It’s just. 

50,000 years. 50,000. And over that huge arc of time, we’ve been quietly using the exact same thing, unchanged, because we simply haven’t found anything better to do the job.

"For the first time in a lifetime, you feel the rays of the rising sun. Like the warm embrace of a long lost brother."

Was hard to pick what scene to illustrate for this episode, but I went for the one that made me cry the most...

Andhera's paper bats story

there's an extremely niche plot in romance fiction wherein our invariably heterosexual leads fall in love after a night of passion leads to an unplanned pregnancy and they're now bound together by an impending child. I cast no judgment on anyone who enjoys this, but since I'm an evil gay and this is my personal nightmare scenario I want to see a zany romance novel premised on the opposite resolution: a couple falls in love while on a whirlwind roadtrip to obtain a legal abortion

I’ll always love Ponyo, whether she’s a fish, a human, or in between.
