[m1ckeyb3rry]

Uuuehghhuhggh touching grass touching grass and I’m lowkey SICK OF IT I just wanna do nothing now RAGGH ok but EPINAGI CHAPTWR BROOOOOO NAGI AND CHIGIRI IM CRYING NAGIS EYE SPARKLE TOO GOODBYEEEE

U20/3rd selection yuki truly on TOP like that’s the yuki that karasus afraid of in fwtkac and pursuit ugh he’s such a gentleman Noel noa PLEASEEE PUT HIM ON THE FIELD

LMAOO THE REUNICLUS ANALYSIS it’s even better when you remember it’s a psychic type and it’s probably using that to backup its claims like “trust me im a psychic type i can read minds and I saw the future and they get married #canon”

Am I hearing that there’s potential for the first yuki fic on the miraverse…..

NO I STILL FRESH EDITS AND ANJMATIONS OF THAT SCENE it’s got everyone in a chokehold (they better throw in a juicy anime only Karasu scene SOON) wait lowk I bet that Karasu panel is gonna be animated next ep?? Since the match is definitely kicking off and I remember that being one of the Karasu “intro” panels

That’s only such a flex though like “oh yeah I’m zooming in from my horse nbd” LMAOO it’s okay the abs will forever live on via this post on your blog or maybe this is a sign to start writing and riding more /hj

- Karasu anon

AHAHAHA THAT’S SO REAL sometimes after i’ve been too busy irl i need an entire weekend to recover from it and do nothing 😭 praying you get through it all and can return to being chronically online once more /j unrelated but i’ve seen so many tik toks that i need to send someone so i’m just to link them all at the bottom KFHFHSHS

THE EPINAGI CHAPTER WAS SO GOOD AS ALWAYS fire tabieita panels + BAROU LOOKED AMAZINGGGGG OH MY GOD and yeah the nagi chigiri scene was so cute i hope people realize how genuinely nice nagi is like yeah he’s a little emotionally oblivious but he really does mean well for the most part 🙁 he was so worried abt chigiri it’s such a contrast to isagi literally SHOVING HIM TO THE GROUND in first selection (i forget if isagi knew about chigiri’s leg atp or not either way it was insane work on his part)

YESSSS THIS ERA OF YUKI IS SO PEAK truly the man of all time…the only one to make fwtkac AND pursuit karasu shudder in fear/mediocrity 😫 he’s so kind and gentle and handsome and perfect it’s insane HAHAHA like i just love him sm

HELPPP reuniclus fake prophet era??? imagine nagi’s birthday is coming up so his pokémon band together to raise money to get him a gift or smth and reuniclus just tells people’s fortunes and then uses his psychic powers to manipulate things so that what he predicted happens LMAOAOA the entire team is pulling scams and doing anything to get money until one of them (probably arcanine) realizes that can just ask reo for funds 😭

YESSSS omg wait technically yuki has an oaeu entry should i do his next 😧⁉️ it’s possible…it’s certainly possible…

YEAHHH I THINK SO that panel is like one of the first we get of him playing and considering he’s also the first of the team to get the spotlight (since he’s isagi’s main opp as well as the highest ranked besides rin/shidou) we will almost definitely get it saturday or at least i’m praying!! we’ll also get isagi calling him a villain which will def pull a chuckle out of me because he’s just silly baby tabito please 🙁 he’s not evil he’s just a loser

LMAOO abs gone but never forgotten 😭 unfortunately it was a combo of riding every day and then walking my dog for 6-8 miles daily because it was the pandemic so i had nothing else to do!! so that era will never be repeated…now i ride other people’s horses too so i leave my phone in the barn in order to be #respectful HAHA so i will have to regain them in some other way

OKAY TIK TOK PALOOZA BELOW ‼️

BAROU edit oh my god they did him so well in ep1 it’s insane

this shit lowkey converting me to itoshism…NOO who said that

nagi edit with a karasu cameo AND slandering isagi truly this was made for me

this is also cracking me up because i’m slow i didn’t realize otoya was referencing smth HAHAH just makes him even funnier

most normal pursuit tabieita interaction

THIS IS THE ONE I WANTED TO SEND THE MOST LMAOAAO it’s literally oaeu aiku and niko @ barou i’ve actually been crying at the visual of them filming this because they would (aiku would do it to go viral and get girls and niko just somehow ends up involved like usual)

[darkicedragon]

Onto Steven Universe: Future. I thought I was starting completely new, but turns out I’ve watched more than I realised, haha. I guess I’m pretty certain I didn’t watch the ending of it though, but we’ll find out. XD

Up to episode 11.

Ep1 Yessss, a new intro finally! :D

Oooooh, he’s healing the gems with....the Diamonds’ tears, I guess? And he drives!

This is just ‘what everyone’s doing now’ montage, huh. I wouldn’t have thought Lars would have stayed on Earth though.

Oooooh, yesssss, teaching the gems how to be a person!

Yeah, it’d make sense Jasper didn’t want to join with everyone.

Daaang, Steven’s angry.

Awww, Jasper just wanted to fight someone! She was super happy doing that!

ep2 Integrated gemmms, yesss.

Yeah, okay, Smilie really needed as much help as he could get. 8′)

......Yeah, fine, it’s all the jobs they were made to do and are comfortable with.

l;skdfjldkfj They just want to hear screams, oh my god, ahahahah.

They’re so adorable!!

ep3

The zoo people are back! And hate Greg, ahahaha, awww.

Oooooh, boy the third Rose Quartz.

The reaction to the ‘Rose’ Rose quartz are just great, aaahaha.

Yeah, understandable where the picture ended up. 8′)

ep4

Pink’s previous Pearl, and healing the gem! :D

But the gem’s not damaged though... Ah, yeah.

Refurbishment doesn’t sound good...

Recent!Pearl, no, don’t take other people’s stuff. >8(

Ouuuch, that crack...

‘I was just standing in the wrong place.’ Ouch. 8(

Thaaat’s a temper, Steven.

‘How did you stop hurting?’ ‘I didn’t.’ Ouuuuuuch.

Attacking with the ribbon though! Wasn’t expecting that. Nice. :D

Ep5. Garnet episode when. :(

Ooooh, pranking! Not very good, but they’re trying their best!

A fusion! :D

I mean, everyone’s tried to kill Steven at this point anyway.

Bluebird is still fake though.

Yeeeep, ahahah.

YOOOO, GREG CUT HIS HAIR 8000

I did expect he could survive the fall, but yeah, wasn’t expecting the haircut, damn.

The ice swords are cool.

lj;sldkfjasdf Oh my god, the Alexandrite fusion was just so quick and squashed them, ahaha.

Ep6 Playing with Onion, awww.

Oh! Rainbow! :D

Ooooh, noooo, don’t gieve Union the umbrella...

Sunstone!

Awww, Onion’s so happy. 8′) And. So destructive.

Ep7 That’s a super precise alarm time, Steven.

Whoooof, Steven is just so uncommunicative with the others.

Pearl transformation! :D

OH, OKAY, this is just all the fusion cameos, ahaha.

Yessss, Sapphire!

Updated tag. :D At least he’s sort of relaxing now.

Ep8 Lapis episode finally!

Adorable plants!

:o More Lapises.

‘Terraforming is what we like’ Yeeeah, fair.

Wow, Lapis is so green now. 

Yeeah, the twins are going to make a weapon ins - yep.

Lapis and Steven dancing together is cute though. And awww, Lapis’ song.

‘Like Pearls’ Whoof.

The twins work really well together, and learn super fast too. I was kinda hoping they’d fuse, but at least one of them decided to go the Homeschool.

Ep9 Sadddiiieee! :D Is dating! :o

Yeeah, everyone’s leaving. 8′)

Awwww, the Off Colours graduated together. 8′)

Steven is so out of the loop now, dang. Too busy with running the Homeschool?

Awww, Sadie’s song was sweet. She’s less angry now. :)

That was way too understanding from everyone after they nearly died. It felt a little rushed.

Just. Give the Homeschool to Amythst.

Ep10 No safety rails on the greenhouse. D: Not that it matters to anyone who goes up there, but what if they’re fully human. DD:

Ooooooh boy. Steven still isn’t letting go of everyone...

Welp, there goes/comes the cactus.

The pot’s too small for them n - oh NO it can speak. 8′))))

Noooo! Don’t hide the cactus!

Steven, I think you could figure out what happened with the SMASHED WINDOW NEXT TO THE DOOR.

Escaped! WITH NEEDLES EVERYWHERE.

SO MANY NEEDLES EVERYWHERE.

Shouldn’t the cactus die with too much water?

Ooooh noooo, a hug. XDDD

-- Hmmm, typing out the reaction to the episodes, it does feel pretty bitty and monster/issue of the week, rather than something overarching. Or just a very gentle epilogue, and the overarching issue is Steven’s anger and finding a place for himself that isn’t connected to his mum.

But I guess I’ll find out, pfft.

[george-fabian-weasley]

Hi! Congratulations on 600! You deserve it!

Can I get a 👁️👄👁️ for my fic a beautiful dream?

Thankyou!

OMG HI YES ABSOLUTELY thank you so much for joining my sleepover! 🌹❤️

A Beautiful Dream by @missmulti

Summary: none

Personally, I don't mind if you don't have any summaries but not everyone is like me, so I would suggest having a short summary to let people know what they're diving into! Also I love love love Remus so I'm gonna enjoy this ehehehehhe.

Magic had made many things possible. It made many things easier as well. But there were some stupid things that in my opinion were stupid. One of those things was the idea of soulmates. Who gave the ministry of magic the right to decide who i was meant for? Well, if i’m being honest at first the thought of having a soulmate fascinated  me. I was so happy to know i had someone out there for me. Well, that was until i developed a crush on none other than Remus Lupin.

Oooh, i've never encountered a first person pov before here, this is interesting. Also the opening words are so perfect fjsjfhsjd

I’m getting off track. Where was i? Ah, yes. The whole soulmate thing. Basically on your 16th birthday you develop a connection with your soulmate and can hear their thoughts and feel their emotions. Isn’t that like an invasion of privacy?My friends say that I’m just being difficult because i have a crush on someone else and cannot accept the prospect of him dating another person. I hate to admit it but they are right.

GIRLLL SOULMATE AU IS THE SHITTT I LOVE THEM SO MUCH YASSSSS

"you deserve the world" Thank you soulmate I appreciate that. But that comment made my suspicion that my soulmate was one of the marauders stronger. I was determined to find out who it was.

I really love their banters, JFKSJJF that's enough proof theyre soulmates

"So soulmate when will I know who you are?" "You won't like me if you know me." "Don't be so pessimistic, you're just like my friend... REMUS? IS THIS YOU?" Shit shit shit "no it's not Remus." "I don't believe it. Remus, what are you so scared of?" "Look I'm not Remus and i dont have time for this right now. Goodbye."  How could i be so stupid? Before i could think anything else, the boys had gotten dressed and were ready to head downstairs.

I had to cut some words so i won't spoil anything but I LOVE THIS PART SO MUCH AHAHAHA it's comical, refreshing and just ugh love it

"take a picture it will last longer" "what? I wasn't staring at you. I don't even know where you are." "Don't lie Remus we both know it's you."

HDISHDKJSJF Y/N DONT CALL HIM OUT LIKE THAT HD KSJFKD LET HIM BREATHE

Just as the words escaped my lips I heard wolf whistles and cheering in the background. "Our moony has finally grown up." Said James wiping a fame tear and sirius laughed. I looked at y/n and she hugged me. "Im still pissed at you for earlier but I can't stay mad at you for long can I?" I laughed and pecked her lips. I was finally happy.

AWHHH REMUSS HFKSJFKDJF IM SOFT FOR HIM HELP

"If y/n is our mother does that mean you are our father?" Marlene and James burst out laughing and y/n looked like she wanted to strangle Sirius. "SIRIUS BLACK FOR THE LAST TIME I AM NOT YOUR MOTHER IN SCHOOL!"

okay I LOVE THIS CONVER so much, Sirius is one sneaky little bastard JDJSKJFJD i love him

"Marry me." "What?" "You heard me. Let's get married. I love you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you." I felt various emotions wash over me. Shock , fear, love and finally pity.

GASP HE PROPOSEDDDD

Things started to look up again. Y/n started to laugh again. She spent most of her time with Sirius (who temporarily moved in with us) Harry and me.

Ooh i really love thissss, you twisted the story to fit your own GAH YESSSS I LOVE THIS VERSION

She started breathing heavily. "Remus.." "No no you can't die." I sobbed. "Im not worth dying for."

WAIT WHAT HOLD ON W H A T

Everything felt around him felt like a blur because all that was left of his beloved was a beautiful dream.

is this a let's break syaf session? is this what yall wanna do now?

Overall: I love the first perspective, it's fresh and you handled the monologue very very well, I really love the storytelling too, it's smooth and it doesn't seem rushed at all.

Try not to make the paragraphs as lengthy next time, you can make them shorter, but never too long.

Also, you have to have a consistent style of writing. If you want to do your story in lowercaps, then you can but make sure ALL of them are in lowercaps. It is never good to mix them up, it will only confuse the readers.

Punctuation marks and the placements of periods are very important to make the story look tidy, the readers would appreciate this very very much even if they don't say it. It would look as if you worked hard to create it; not just create something in a span of an hour without proofreading anything.

Overall would give this fic 8.5/10, you already have the basics perfected, just need a little bit more of polishing and you're all set! Just keep writing and writing and writing! It took me 5 years to get to where I am now, experience makes you better.

Also I'm sorry if I'm too honest, when I first started, I had to learn these the hard way so I really hope you take no offence! I only want the best for you, and I want you to keep growing beautifully! I really really love your work 🥺 <3

JOIN MY SLEEPOVER!

[brainy-storm]

S415 - Where you at, bro? (½)

General Thoughts:

ahahaha I knew Eve was bad but dang she had no regrets, wow. Unapologetically a bad guy. Nice.

I found the storyline with Manchester a bit odd, hmm. And the way he died was very...unceremonious. I’m hoping he’s not actually dead, hm.

LEX LUTHOR. But I’ll have a section on him later.

I think that the CW writes family dynamics, really well in this episode. Especially all the sibling dynamics, just good.  (which is why my next sections will be split in families)

The Danvers:

I like how Alex is so concerned over James, because yeah they’re all friends and she’s also just like ‘where are you’ Kara because she’s worried their friend is about to die and Kara isn’t around

And it just shows ooooof this mind wipe thing is even more painful

But Kara is also trying to help J’onn, who is torn over his family

And he can’t bear to lose Kara or Alex because that would be like losing his family all over again i cri

And then Kara telling J’onn he’s important to her and Alex no matter what

And then Alex and Kara hugging it out

I LOVE THIS FAMILY

J’onn and Manchester:

Just before moving onto the other families, I just find it very weird for J’onn to go from 0 of no violence to the 100 of killing.

There must have been a way to apprehend Manchester. unless, again he’s not actually dead which would be good

But I am glad that if he did kill Manchester, he’s already reflecting on it and there might be repercussions.

why do I also feel like idk...Manchester might have recorded the whole thing to see an ‘alien’ kill a ‘human’ and then it would cause more tension and have a war. But maybe I just watch too many dramatic shows haha

The OIsens:

I mean James was mostly asleep but it was interesting to learn a bit more about him. Like how he had to run away from home before. And how he’s been to the hospital like 12 times cause of stuff like wow James. So this must date pre-Guardian stuff, like dang.

Anyway, I liked Kelly’s introduction

I give her my good-sister stamp of approval for not agreeing to go with Lena’s solution right away because yeah, she didn’t know Lena through anyone but James, and they hadn’t met so it makes sense. It seems like a realistic kind of reaction and I can see myself doing the same in that situation 

But she also wanted to take the chance to save her brother when things seemed bleak and saw that she should trust in her brother’s friends (or chosen family, as she called it which got meeee)

Oof she needs

Also leaving James with the phone to talk to his mum - YEP. SIBLINGS. 

The Luthors:

The whole time I was screaming LENA HE TRYIN TO TRICK YOU.

I mean she kinda knew but also kinda fell for it a bit.

I feel bad for her cause she thought her brother was dying, even though he’s an evil person, she still cares for him as a brother. And then he told her about her mother which is WOW but  yeah after getting her whole backstory with her mother, I see why he got to her like that

And his acknowledgement of her achievements was good too. She deserved that, at the very least from her family.

The Luthor dynamic was really good, like just how I wanted it to be. Excellent.

ALSO OTIS. WAs alive daNG. Mate. I thought maybe Mercy might have been alive but it was Otis wowow. That reveal also got me cause I was like good that guard can drop that water cause he knows Lex is a SHIT. But it was Otis like well done dude I actually 0% saw that coming.

Eve just changing her outfit to be typical bad-guy was lol but also perfect.

Poor Lena’s face, though when she saw Eve betrayed her.

Lex freakin Luthor:

AHAHAHA

YESSSS. I like it. I love that they just made him like ‘I’m a bad guy, and I know it.’ Like he knows people see him as a villain and he’s like ‘yeah I do what I want’

Straight up just murders everyone.

Idk I just like villains where it’s a clear cut ‘aha, yes, BAD MAN IS BAD’. But also smart. so like Supergirl can just try and fight him without constraint, cause he’s LEX LUTHOR who murders people seemingly for fun (or at least just with complete disregard)

Also, I love how he calls James ‘Jimmy’ to mock him, and like I bet he already disapproved of the relationship with Lena because he’s like public friends with Superman (signal watch ahem), and then ofc got him shot like yeaaah.

They probs won’t try and get Supes down cause it’s Supergirl’s show but I hope that someone tells him all about this later.

Or we get like a space-text with a ‘Good job Kara :) ‘( I missed those cute texts from season 1)

Nia:

I like how Nia is shown to be integrated to their group, like even though she hasn’t been part of it for long, she has been there for the game nights and James is her first boss (yes?) (or one of her first boss’), and he’s given her advice and actually she came out to James before she did to Kara so I feel like the emotional bond is there for her to be really upset over this. 

I also see why she jumps to saying she should have predicted this, because she already predicted and failed to save her mother, and - though the show doesn’t say this - maybe she thought that since becoming a superhero and getting her powers she should’ve been able to predict things like this. Maybe the show will say it later (hopefully)

In a way, she’s also with her chosen family, after what happened with her sister. which hopefully we’ll follow up on, one day

Brainy:

Okay so, like you know how I love Brainy? (whaat? brainy-storm? You love BRAINY? REALLY? ok ok shh)

Firstly, him blaming himself was on point for this, because he has so much pride and expectation on himself and feels responsible, he thought he should have been able to predict this all and should have been able to fly into CatCo and do this before it happened arghhh.

It’s also in line with his character from s3 where he was frustrated about not being able to get the signal to space, or in 4x04 where he was upset he couldn’t think of anything to help Supergirl --- which he does bring up

HE FINALLY MENTIONED HIS FAMILY. AND THEY’RE ALL EVIL. BOO YAH. 

I mean, poor Brainy.

But seriously, so from that I’m taking O.G Brainy [which hasn’t happened yet because if Brainiac came to Earth I feel like they would knowww  soo...future storyline?] But also Brainy’s evil mum from reboot so yessss. And more too probs.

And Mon-El being dismissive - I wonder if this is in like a general sometimes the legion is harsh/dismissive or is this in a threeboot like leadership battle with Cosmic Boy kind of way. 

Both the ancestry and the Mon-El mention I feel deserve to have longer explanations and I wishhhhh he could have elaborated.

And then him saying he had to move his whole existence MY POOR BRAINY

HE JUST WANTS A CHOCO

Anyway, I just want to say Jesse Rath freaking smashed it. Like seriously, his scenes were not going to affect the main storyline of this episode but he was like THIS IS MY CHARACTER PIECE AND I WILL PERFORM THE HELL OUT OF IT.

If you click on this link you can see a tweet that shows that Jesse Rath bled after punching that vending machine. 1. I hope he takes care of himself 2. but I appreciate this effort like wow 

Era? I think a mix of all eras were channelled here well.   

shipper thoughts, as usual, will be on 2/2 but yeah I ship kara x brainy so pfft this episode was not great for me in that aspect but that, firmly  aside I thought it was very good 

[mossflowermouse]

this has been buried in my drafts since january. where did all those months go

[Some context for this one: I finished WCaHSS a few months ago and then vanished from Tumblr for a while as life got a bit chaotic. Everything in this post was written while I was reading the novel for the first time - I’ve reread parts of it since then and had more thoughts, but those will go in another post.]

Part three! In which I accidentally read the entire second half of this book in two days. (The first two posts, by comparison, were made up of things I’d written over the course of a couple of weeks.) The rest of the book can be divided neatly into “more or less happy, with some particular standout moments” and “emotionally devastating”, which is how I’m splitting up this part of the review. That way, at least there’s one post where (almost) everything is happy and (almost) nothing hurts.

In this part, various people narrowly escape danger, I realise exactly how much I don’t want Robert to die, and the shipping continues.

Chapter XXI

Like Maude, I don't know who to be most afraid for during the flight from Winchester. Everyone, probably. 

Okay so there's been a very brief battle and Maude's side have lost very badly. Where is Robert. @ the narration and also history please let him be safe. I've become very attached. (Less worried for Ranulf because he was the point-of-view character for that bit, whereas Robert's rearguard was in the thick of the fighting and there was no mention of him. I'm genuinely reluctant to keep reading in case he's dead.) 

...then I actually did end up taking a break for a few hours in an attempt to avoid confronting Schrodinger’s Robert, because if I don’t read the rest of the chapter then everyone is still okay.

Continuing to read and I can't even take comfort in the little Maude/Brien moment. Too much worry for Robert.

"[Adelina] gave Maude no time to dwell upon Winchester's fall and the men who might be dying even now on her behalf" the tension is killing me

Captured or slain. Brien's right, though, they probably would have preferred to take Robert alive. Fingers crossed.

THEY'VE GOT A PRISONER IS IT ROBERT

THE DESCRIPTION SOUNDS LIKE HIM MY HOPES ARE HIGH

ROBERT!!!

And it sounds like Matilda's planning to exchange him for Stephen. This really does seem to be the best case scenario.

Chapter XXII

Okay, now I can enjoy the Maude/Brien moments (and also feel sympathy for Maude's worry that Robert and co are dead)

Poor Amabel.

Awww, and Robert's negotiating for the freedom of the other prisoners. Have I mentioned how much I like Robert?

Miles is alive and safe! I'm glad. David's still missing, though.

Ranulf's back too!

So Robert's spent about a month refusing to be ransomed unless the other prisoners are released too. Also David's back in Scotland.

Amabel's contacted Matilda directly to make sure no harm comes to Robert (by threatening Stephen). I can't say this surprises me, though if Matilda plans to negotiate with her for Stephen's release it'll be interesting to see what's decided.

Chapter XXIII

Wow, that was quick. Immediate timeskip to the planned exchange.

Matilda and Stephen's reunion is really sweet.

Oh wow and William de Ypres being awkward seeing Stephen again because he's not sure if he's ever apologised in his life.

This entire scene is painful (Robert's return, his quarrel with Maude, her thoughts out on the battlements, and then the confirmation that neither of them believes she'll ever be queen)

XXIV, XXV

I like Maud. Her willingness to become Ranulf's co-conspirator/wingman is great.

Stephen's rumoured to be dying but I know his reign goes on for another ten years or thereabouts, so this isn't too worrying.

Yep, he's recovering.

This doesn't look good for Maude and Robert. Stephen's realised Robert's gone to Normandy and is planning various attacks to win the war.

As Stephen hoped, some of Maude's allies have left to protect their own lands.

And he's on his way to besiege Oxford. I genuinely have no idea how this will play out - Maude and co. seem to be fighting primarily for her son's right to rule now, so her capture wouldn't necessarily end the war, plus there's only...twelve?...years left of Stephen's kingship. On the other hand, even with the change of plans, Maude being captured could still be a major enough setback for her side that they'd lose completely. But they've got to come to some sort of an agreement eventually or Henry wouldn't succeed Stephen. Right?

Okay, they're in the city. This might actually work.

Wow. Oxford's been captured by Stephen. Now it's just the castle left.

XXVI

Oooh, the chapter's set in Normandy! Robert?

Not immediately Robert, but Henry! It's been a while since he's showed up.

Nice to hear about some of the drama in France too. I wonder if this is how Eleanor and Henry will end up meeting?

Robert's just found out from Brien, via letter, about the Oxford siege. Go and help, Robert. I trust you.

So everyone except Ranulf and Brien left Maude to go and defend their own lands. That did seem to be the case, but it's helpful (also frustrating) to get direct confirmation. I'm not surprised those two were the ones to stay.

UGH GEOFFREY. UGH. HE'S SO AWFUL ABOUT MAUDE.

Henry's saying he'll go to England and he's giving some pretty thoughtful reasoning (and is worried about Maude, my heart)

They're letting him travel with Robert!

Apparently the siege has gone on for three months. I'm now picturing Maude and Ranulf being endlessly frustrated by being effectively trapped with nothing they can do about it, Brien likewise being driven slowly mad by the fact that they're under siege so close by, and Stephen knowing Maude will absolutely refuse to surrender, but still spending the entire siege halfheartedly hoping that today will be the day it ends.

XXVII

At least Brien's managed to get word to Maude and Ranulf about the hoped-for Robert Ex Machina.

Maude's planning to escape! So that's what all the sewing was about.

I love all of this escape scene.

Hugh freely admitting that he thought they'd have no chance of escape makes it kind of heartwarming that he didn't hesitate to go with Maude.

They've made it to Wallingford! The guard's shock at Ranulf saying the Empress is there reminded me that nobody outside Oxford Castle knows about this - Brien's going to have some unexpected guests (I’m hyped to see him realise this), and I expect Robert and Henry will be relieved to hear what's happened too.

This entire scene is absolutely fantastic, where do I begin? This page in particular made me smile so much so just have the whole thing:

1. Maude actually gets to be happy for once, I’m so glad for her

2. YESSS MY SHIP. Cuddles? (ssshh yes I’m counting that as a cuddle, it’s ambiguous enough) Laughing? Smiling? Openly? YESSSS this is more than I could possibly have hoped for

Ah. I was so caught up in the joy of Maude's escape, I forgot she wasn't the only married half of this ship.

Ahahaha, Alexander's taking so much pleasure in telling Stephen Maude's escaped

Awww, Stephen not only let Minna go but gave back Ranulf's dyrehunds. I suppose even years of war haven’t been able to completely stop him being kind to his little cousin.

Robert? Robert!

Robert and Maude's hug :) 

Maude and Henry :)

Brien :)

XXVIII

Aww, I'm really enjoying getting to see more of little Henry (or maybe that should be Harry).

Robert!!! Again, I'm so glad he didn't die at Winchester.

Also “that misbegotten hellspawn, Gloucester” is my new favourite phrase

Close escape for Stephen.

Has he really only been king eight years? It feels like more.

XXIX, XXX

Aww, Ranulf and Annora

Wait, was Monmouth's book on the kings of Britain actually dedicated to Robert? That's so cool.

I love that Ranulf has gone from helping these kids escape bandits to finding them a meal to escorting them to Cambridge to just bringing them with him. Also, I would like to state for the record that Geoffrey de Mandeville is terrible.

Wait. Maude just said she'd thought Ranulf was dead too. Who died. Oh god.

Miles. I'll miss him.

[darkicedragon]

Aaaall caught up with The Magnus Archives now. :D Some 700~ words.

'What is this place?' Omfg, John, please.

'Sarah... Daniel' HMMMM, Sarah Baldwin came back?

OOOOOH MAAAAAAAN.

'Everything is going to be okay.' This is the point you pipe this person, because it's CLEARLY not Tim. >_>

'Stop what?' OOOOOH BOY, YEP

Burn them burn them burn them, I'm sure you've still got your lighter with you.

Welp, there goes the detonator 8')

Ehehehe, Daisy gets it straight away.

Awwww, Basira and Tim are together.

'Doesn't matter. Names...don't matter' Eeeeeee yessss

Goddammit, no, Tim XD;

'Sasha...whatever her name was!' PFFT

Omggggg, gertrude's voice! ...Because her skin's here? Hmhm

'And you didn't even know what you were fighting' Okay but he's only been here a year while you've been doing this for 50 :(

Theeere we go, leitner.

'Why didn't you warn me it'd be like this?' He kinda died too fast to tell you everything, pfft.

And yep, they say so, haha.

'I guess you should have remembered that //smoking kills//' Okay, I laughed XD

Baaasssiiiraaaaa, talking with hersellff to get herself to focus, aaaah.

'I see you...’ HNNNNNG

'Oh just let me ENJOY myself' Big bad's fatal flaw, ahaha

Axe death!

'I see my asshole boss!' XDD

YESSSS, John trying get tim to understand again! OOOOOH RIGHT, he's probably compelling Tim with his questions!

'Do you think the world will be better with the WATCHER' Yeeeep, next ritual to disrupt. Time to destroy the archives. >8D

muse muse. Had been wondering why Elias had been so pissed when Martin had been destroying statements since they can just redo them, but I guess gathering knowledge is a major part.

muse muse. So a beholder world would be things under constant surveillance, your every move and thought recorded into neat little stories?

'You can't even save HIM' 'But I can hurt YOU' Eeeeeeheheheh

TIM DID IIIIIIIT

END OF THE EPISODE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

Elias, no, no poking about in other people's dreams >8l

'Whose eye watches him, and cannot close' HNNNG

'I am for you' Hnnnnnng

Aaaaaaall the caaaaallbaaaacks

'He. Is. Whole' HNNNNG

'I only hope you can continue your growth without my guidance' ??????

So did Melanie and Martin figure out how to kill him then?

Or are they getting him arrested for like, keeping human bones in his office?

OOOOOH RIGHT. ALL THE RECORDINGS ARE EVIDENCE, RIIIIIIGHT

'You didn't tell her' Ahahaha yeah. She'd have wanted him dead. 8')

Why does no-one think Martin can stand up for himself and actually do stuff? XD;; Awwww!

'Let the others know I shall be thinking of them' HAHA. HA. HAHAHA..... And watching, of course. >_>;

'Please, call me Peter' 'No... No I'm okay' XDDD Awwww, Martin

...........Does this mean Peter's going to be the new boss? 8');;;;

YEEEEY, NEW BOSS.

TIM'S GOING TO BE //ECSTATIC// 8D 8D

'Give you all a couple of weeks of paid leave' Ahaha, nice canon way to give the actors and writer a break too, heh

Noooo, daisy and tim are gone :(

Ooooh, right, because Martin doesn't like change

MUUUUSE. So was John actually physically dead?

"When Jon takes a statement directly from a victim, he causes them to have recurring nightmares, and enters their dreams to watch them suffer over and over again." Thaaat would explain Basira and Daisy's conversation. but yeah, hadn't quite twigged since it was a dreamscape, so anything can happen in dreams anyway haha

Meaningful Name: Martin's surname, Blackwood, translates to "Schwarzwald" — the location where Jonah Magnus first encountered the supernatural. Excuse me

Hmmm, wasn’t quite so hyped up for this finale, but yeah, damn, the penultimate episode was a lot of work for them, haha. Maybe I wasn’t as interested because Mass Confusion is hard for me to follow and there were So Many Groups.

And it’s also hard to know exactly what’s going on since the format is on the tapes, (which would have been destroyed) so I was a little :( when we had to have a summary of what happened after from Elias. Which is a good use of his power, and it’s not like we would have known about John’s dream walking power for a whiiile without it.

But also yeah! Looks like John’s going to be tumbling further into non-humanness if he’s met with the Eye now. 8D Can’t wait to see the changes, ahahah.
