#Impact Advisors

[science-lings]

so the Dark Knights of Steel didn't give any of the robins backstories or heavily defined characteristics and I want to change that. I love a good fantasy AU and the batfam. What could go wrong?

[lostacelonnie]

i want you to tell me that you don't think this is a mistake!

+ no text version because i worked HARD on the patterns on misty's dress

[magictavern]

it's kind of fascinating how much better i feel doing my phd as opposed to my masters. there are a handful of contextual + temporal factors impacting that but. wow! feels like a way better experience

[micahdotgov]

heartbreaking: ollie is not on the wikipedia page for special advisors but glenn is

[angstics]

the terror that just struck me to the bone. i just felt the filmmaker of my life use the dutch angle to represent my descent into madness. we cant be talking about Queliot in PhD dissertations for Ohio State University. this is small community trauma that should be kept a secret in respect of the hundreds affected. oh i feel sick

[cocoondreamlike]

if twow does ever get released i can’t wait until dany comes back with a united dothraki army and barristan dies and then she heads west with her own small council of tyrion, moqorro, marwyn, victarion and the tattered prince. probably with the blessing of the red temple of volantis and the dosh khaleen.

and each of her advisors wants to her take to take a different path. tyrion probably for revenge against cersei, moqorro wants her to liberate volantis, marwyn wants her to go to the wall to fight the others, victarion wants to marry her and also something to do with whatever euron’s up to, and the tattered prince wants her to take pentos (and we’ll see how dany feels about illyrio if she finds out the truth)

good stuff, can’t wait!!!

I've actually been scrounging for an ending to Ellenville, because it's hard to actually 'end' a tragedy with something that feels complete, and that last post hit me with yeah, that's right. Because we live in a world where blood is protection and the cost of safety; and it fits in so neatly with the themes of death as stasis and longevity.

The 'end' is the regulations in place. Not even watching it happen, but success. This is The Pushcart War but epic fantasy.

Elevate Your Pitch Elevator Pitch

There is either dread or delight when people are prompted something about themselves —dread, because in front of a job interviewer, people want to say the right thing, to impress, hopefully to land the role, then there is delight in basking under the spotlight to talk about themselves, an exhilarating experience, right? Of course, in scenario where your goal is to land a job, what you say…

I'm rewatching BBC Merlin for the hundredth time and just need to talk about The Witchfinder episode from season 2 and how this impacted Merlin's decision to keep his magic a secret.

By now, Merlin has been in Camelot long enough to see how Gaius is a trusted advisor to Uther. They've been friends for decades. Uther trusts Gaius as much as he is capable of trusting anyone.

And yet. And yet Uther STILL orders the execution of his most trusted advisor on the word of the Witchfinder.

To Uther, the years of service and trust mean nothing in the face of sorcery. Uther tried to apologize (ish) later, and rightfully so, Gaius refused to just brush the near execution aside.

Now think about Merlin. He has come to care about Arthur as a person at this point, not just part of his destiny, but they aren't as close as we know they will be later.

Merlin has been traumatized by seeing his father figure almost die because the king was blinded by his hatred of sorcery. Merlin knows it was almost his own execution here.

It's no wonder he didn't want to tell Arthur at this point. If Uther was ready to kill Gaius, we know canonically he was fine with Merlin dying.

Once Arthur became king, I believe Merlin still remembered this. We know what Merlin said: he didn't want to put Arthur in this position, to have to make the choice of life or death. But I believe there was still this deep seated fear that his years of service and council would never be enough to out weigh the death sentence of being a sorcerer in Camelot.
