Season 3 Scattered Thoughts

Robert Sean Leonard, Stephen Collins, and Michael Hogan. Who else will turn up on this show, after we’ve already seen Henry Czerny and Steven Weber?

Honestly, how did we go from Manchester under house arrest to Manchester happy as a clam trying to single-handedly revive the CIA?

I like that Weaver is softening, but don’t like that he’s turning into a yes man in public for Tom, who is literally now the WORST. I would have liked to see more of Marina Peralta throwing signals at Weaver and Jeanne directing him on the appropriate responses. Not enough of the Weavers and Peralta for my liking.

I’m intrigued by the dilemma faced by Ben and Denni. Face an uncertain future with their spikes and being useful versus having the spikes removed and all of sudden having every bit of usefulness in the war effort stripped away? Why couldn’t they spend more time on that than Evil!(but not really)Hal?

Come to think of it, how much of the humans’ bad luck was on Hal’s head and how much was on Lourdes’ head? It seems the reveal of Lourdes being controlled let Hal off the hook quite handily when he was the one who was there when Anne and Alexis were taken. Fucking Hal and fucking Maggie, who enabled him. Neither of whom appear to be facing any consequences. But it’s all Karen and Lourdes’ fault. Okay, show.

RIP, Dai and Crazy Lee, among others. You’re not Masons or Mason yes-men, so you’re toast.

And why the hell is Tom being such a bitch to Pope when it’s only the two of them after a plane crash with enemies all around? Almost like he knows he’s got plot armor.

Summaries under the cut

Damar by Robin McKinley

This is the story of Corlath, golden-eyed king of the Free Hillfolk, son of the sons of the Lady Aerin.

And this is the story of Harry Crewe, the Homelander orphan girl who became Harimad-sol, King's Rider, and heir to the Blue Sword, Gonturan, that no woman had wielded since the Lady Aerin herself bore it into battle.

And this is the song of the kelar of the Hillfolk, the magic of the blood, the weaver of destinies...

The Railway Children by E. Nesbit

In this much-loved children's classic first published in 1906, the comfortable lives of three well-mannered siblings are greatly altered when, one evening, two men arrive at the house and take their father away. With the family's fortunes considerably reduced in his absence, the children and their mother are forced to live in a simple country cottage near a railway station. There the young trio—Roberta, Peter, and young Phyllis—befriend the porter and station master.

The youngsters' days are filled with adventure and excitement, including their successful attempt to avert a horrible train disaster; but the mysterious disappearance of their father continues to haunt them.

Julie of the Wolves by Jean Craighead George

Alone and lost—on the North Slope of Alaska

Miyax rebels against a home situation she finds intolerable. She runs away toward San Francisco, toward her pen pal, who calls her Julie. But soon Miyax is lost in the Alaskan wilderness, without food, without even a compass. Slowly she is accepted by a pack of Arctic wolves, and she comes to love them as though they were her brothers. With their help, and drawing on her father’s training, she struggles day by day to survive. In the process, she is forced to rethink her past, and to define for herself the traditional riches of Eskimo life: intelligence, fearlessness, and love.

The Penderwicks by Jeanne Birdsall

The Penderwick sisters busily discover the summertime magic of Arundel estate’s sprawling gardens, treasure-filled attic, tame rabbits, and the cook who makes the best gingerbread in Massachusetts. Best of all is Jeffrey Tifton, son of Arundel’s owner, the perfect companion for their adventures. Icy-hearted Mrs. Tifton is less pleased with the Penderwicks than Jeffrey, and warns the new friends to stay out of trouble. Is that any fun? For sure the summer will be unforgettable.

The Harper Hall of Pern by Anne McCaffrey

For centuries, the world of Pern has faced a destructive force known as Thread. But the number of magnificent dragons who have protected this world and the men and women who ride them are dwindling.

As fewer dragons ride the winds and destruction falls from the sky, Menolly has only one to sing, play, and weave the music that comes to her so easily—she wishes to become a Harper. But despite her great talents, her father believes that a young girl is unworthy of such a respected position and forbids her to pursue her dreams. So Menolly runs away, taking shelter in a cave by the sea. Miraculously, she happens upon nine fire lizards that could possibly save her world...and change her life forever.

Secret Series by Pseudonymous Bosch

Warning: this description has not been authorized by Pseudonymous Bosch.

As much as he'd love to sing the praises of his book (he is very vain), he wouldn't want you to hear about his brave 11-year old heroes, Cass and Max-Ernest. Or about how a mysterious box of vials, the Symphony of Smells, sends them on the trail of a magician who has vanished under strange (and stinky) circumstances. And he certainly wouldn't want you to know about the hair-raising adventures that follow and the nefarious villains they face. You see, not only is the name of this book secret, the story inside is, too. For it concerns a secret. A Big Secret.

Mr. Lemoncello's Library by Chris Grabenstein

Kyle Keeley is the class clown, popular with most kids, (if not the teachers), and an ardent fan of all games: board games, word games, and particularly video games. His hero, Luigi Lemoncello, the most notorious and creative gamemaker in the world, just so happens to be the genius behind the building of the new town library.

Lucky Kyle wins a coveted spot to be one of the first 12 kids in the library for an overnight of fun, food, and lots and lots of games. But when morning comes, the doors remain locked. Kyle and the other winners must solve every clue and every secret puzzle to find the hidden escape route. And the stakes are very high.

Caddie Woodlawn by Carol Ryrie Brink

Caddie Woodlawn is a real adventurer. She'd rather hunt than sew and plow than bake, and tries to beat her brother's dares every chance she gets. Caddie is friends with Indians, who scare most of the neighbors -- neighbors who, like her mother and sisters, don't understand her at all.

Caddie is brave, and her story is special because it's based on the life and memories of Carol Ryrie Brink's grandmother, the real Caddie Woodlawn.

Pendragon by D. J. MacHale

BOBBY PENDRAGON is a seemingly normal fourteen-year-old boy. He has a family, a home, and even Marley, his beloved dog. But there is something very special about Bobby.

He is going to save the world.

And not just Earth as we know it. Bobby is slowly starting to realize that life in the cosmos isn't quite what he thought it was. And before he can object, he is swept off to an alternate dimension known as Denduron, a territory inhabited by strange beings, ruled by a magical tyrant, and plagued by dangerous revolution.

If Bobby wants to see his family again, he's going to have to accept his role as savior, and accept it wholeheartedly. Because, as he is about to discover, Denduron is only the beginning....

Goodnight Mr. Tom by Michelle Magorian

The gruff and surly Mr Thomas Oakley is less than pleased when he is landed with a scrawny little city boy as a guest, but because it is compulsory that each villager takes in an evacuee he reluctantly agrees. It soon becomes obvious to Mister Tom that young Willie Beech is hiding something, and as the pair begin to form an unlikely bond and Willie grows in stature and in confidence he begins to forget the past. But when he has to return to war-torn London to face his mother again he retreats into his shy and awkward ways once more.

I’m kind of bummed by the seven-month time jump. This show is developing a distressing trend of skipping over a lot of stuff I would have liked to have seen, such as the losses at Fitchburg and then whatever happened between seasons two and three.

I don’t mind the new alien guy, but I would have liked to have seen how we went from him literally being the second to the last shot in season two to him hanging out in war meetings in the first ten minutes of season three.

Why is Tom president and why is Manchester now head of the new CIA?

And Gloria Reuben, no matter who or what she’s playing, deserved a proper introduction. She worked with Wyle on ER and Patton on The Agency. I’d rather see more of her Marina Peralta than half the rest of the cast at this point.

And I really no longer care about the Days of Hal’s Lives. Or the Days of Maggie’s Lives. Or any of the Masons who aren’t Tom at this point.

I’m hoping Diego makes it. Jeanne deserves it after apologizing to her dad last season for just up and leaving while he was unconscious after saving her.

How did the only doctor in the cast accidentally get pregnant on this show? C’mon son.

[soulstagger]

"Oh how blissfully ignorant you've been, must of been so nice. Left it all behind, but.." Deva oozed around to Rirune's front, her body all over him, keeping only a small gap between their faces as the rest of her seemed to almost cover his entire body.

Half her face stuck to him, the other half looking at right him, it would of been just a horrible feeling to try and beat, and there was no wiggling out of it.

"My my, perhaps it's just my research, what Jeanne told me..perhaps it was just your grief that hides the answer? But to see the weaver, you need to desire a wish? But wishing for her? No good right?"

She tightened around him, her slime body seeping into every part of his skin. Trying to get as uncomfortable as possible, "Why don't I give you a wish? Why don't I simply leave so much of me inside of you, that you have no choice but to need her help.."

"Or maybe." Deva moved her stretched face slower, letting it cover more of Rirune's face. "I should eat you, and see if your friends and family in this book... might give it all in a wish to have you back hmm?"

"Choices among choices, a fine idea is to do what we did all those years ago. And control you again, how much little precious power do we have inside? Enough to level this town you've made your home?"

Completely in Deva's mercy, the kitsune watched Mayune end up being unconcious. It may be an illusion of his own making, but it still hurts to see her pass out like this.

But his attention was immediately caught over a certain journal. One he knows VERY well.

"That book! When?! How?! What...-"

Yes, there's no mistaking it... It even has his own handwriting in it too. Pictures of every single resident of Gensokyo he met, along with small details of their behavior, and their measurements...

How... how did she manage to get something like this...?

There's so many questions riding in his head, but he dared not ask, for he knew he wouldn't get the truth from Deva.

Or... is he afraid of the truth?

Satori... he has to know if she, the woman who adopted him so long ago, was alright. She was the one he entrusted that book to! If she got it, that could mean...

...

Deva's words went in from one ear and out through another, with his heart shaken from worry and anxiety.

The red witch, her... none of that matters to him.

Even back during his trip to outer space, the Red Witch didn't take priority over his family. The only thing he did care about was saving Hakune and his friends, anything else is secondary.

Even now, what he wanted to know was if his friends, Lust, Prime, Mirana, and the others were okay. And especially... his...

... Mom?

"... What?"

SQUEEZE!

"Nnngh...!"

Deva snapped him back into concentration with a single name, along with that one action.

Did she say... Harune? But... that's impossible.

"... Is this a joke to you?! Even if Miss Harune's alive, what makes you think I would do what you say?! She's gone, along with the lodge. Ever since that day, I wished for her to come back, prayed that everyone would be okay in the end, b-but I had to come into terms that none of them are coming back! So forget it, unless you have solid evidence on this!"

He has completely lost his composure as he spoke.

For Deva, if her memory was good enough after all this time, his voice, or rather, his manner of speaking is quite similar to how he spoke as a two-tailed kitsune from long ago.

It's... almost as if he reverted back to his old self for a moment.

But even after he spoke those words, there's something tugging from the depths of his heart.

Could... it be?

A medieval housewife

To be a woman in the thirteenth century is much like being a woman in any age. Women are somewhat oppressed and exploited, as always, but as in any age, social status is the really important thing, and a burgher’s wife is no serf. She is a person of dignity and worth, important in her family and respected in the community.

Unmarried women can own property, and in the absence of male heirs they can also inherit. Women of all classes have rights in property by law and custom. Women can sue and be sued, make wills, make contracts, even plead their own cases in court. Women have been known to appear as their husbands’ attorneys. A “Portia” character is the heroine of a contemporary romance, The Hard Creditor.

Well-to-do women know how to read and write and figure; some know a little Latin, or boast such ladylike accomplishments as embroidering and playing the lute. Girls receive instruction from private teachers, or board at convents. The convent of Notre-Dame-aux-Nonnains has a school for girls dating back to the sixth century. Universities are closed to women, but they are equally closed to men except those who are being trained for the clergy, law, or medicine. Among the landed gentry, women are better educated than men. In the romance Galeran a boy and girl brought up together are given typically different schooling— the girl learning to embroider, read, write, speak Latin, play the harp, and sing; the boy, to hawk, hunt, shoot, ride, and play chess.

Women work outside the home at an astonishing variety of crafts and professions. They may be teachers, midwives, laundresses, lacemakers, seamstresses, and even members of normally male trades and occupations- weavers, fullers, barbers, carpenters, saddlers, tilers, and many others. Wives commonly work at their husbands’ crafts, and when a man dies his widow carries on the trade. Daughters not infrequently learn their father’s craft along with their brothers. In the countryside girls hire out as farm workers. The lady of the manor takes charge of the estate while her husband is off to war, Crusade, or pilgrimage, and wives run businesses while their husbands are away.

Women do suffer from an inequity in respect to wages, which are lower than men’s for the same work. An English treatise on husbandry says, “If this is a manor where there is no dairy, it is always good to have a woman there at much less cost than a man.”

Politically, women have no voice. They do not sit on the Town Council or in the courts, or serve as provosts or officials. Basically, this is because they do not bear arms. Yet women play political roles, often with distinction— Empress Matilda of England, Eleanor of Aquitaine, Queen Blanche of France, Countess Jeanne of Flanders, Blanche of Champagne, and many more. Countess Marie, wife of Henry the Generous, was asked to arbitrate claims between the churches of St.-Etienne and St.-Loup, and with her brother-in-law, William of the White Hands, archbishop of Reims, to decide important cases, including the seigneury of Vertus. In war, or at least sieges, women often play the heroine.

Women occupy positions of power and influence in the Church. The abbess of a convent such as Notre-Dame-aux-Nonnains is invested with important executive responsibilities. Usually such posts are accorded to ladies of high rank, like Alix de Villehardouin, daughter of the marshal of Champagne. Abbesses are not afraid to assert their rights. A few years hence an abbess of Notre-Dame, Odette de Pougy, will defy the Pope’s excommunication and lead a party of armed men to defend what she regards as the rights of her abbey. This establishment owes its extraordinary prestige to its ancient origins, which are believed to date from the third century. The abbess actually enjoys rights over the bishop of Troyes. When a new bishop is installed, he must lead a procession to the abbey, mounted on a palfrey that is handed over, saddle included, to the abbess’s stable. Inside the convent, the bishop kneels and receives cross, mitre, and prayer book from the abbess’s hands. He recites an oath: “I...bishop of Troyes, swear to observe the rights, franchises, liberties, and privileges of this convent of Notre-Dame-aux-Nonnains, with the help of God and his holy saints.” The bishop spends the night in the convent and is given as a gift the bed in which he has slept, with all its furnishings. Only the next day does his installation as bishop take place in the cathedral.

Women achieve distinction outside the cloister, too. Marie de France is the most gifted woman poet of the Middle Ages, and “wise Héloise” the most noteworthy bluestocking, but there are many more. The contemporary scholar Albert the Great, debating whether the Virgin Mary knew the seven liberal arts, resolves the question affirmatively.

The cult of Mary serves to elevate the image of women and to counterbalance the misogyny of ascetic preachers who bestow such epithets as “man’s confounder,” “mad beast,” “stinking rose,” “sad paradise,” “sweet venom,” “luscious sin,” and “bitter sweet,” while lingering over the attractions of the temptresses. The chivalric ideal also glorifies women. The Church recognizes the wife to be subject to her husband, as Paul recommended, but as his companion, not as mere mistress or servant. Married people are expected to treat each other with respect, and many husbands and wives never call each other anything but Sir and Madam.

Wife-beating is common in an age when corporal punishment is the norm. But wives do not necessarily get the worst of it. A contemporary observer remarks that men rarely have the mastery of their wives, that nearly everywhere women dominate their husbands. One preacher complains that formerly wives were faithful to their husbands and peaceful as ewe lambs; now they are lionesses. Another tells the story of a storm at sea, when the sailors wished to throw into the sea anything that might overload the ship, and a certain husband handed over his wife, saying that there was no object of such intolerable weight. The expression “wearing the pants in the family” is already current, and henpecked husbands are a favorite theme of the fabliaux.

Perhaps the most important point to note about the medieval housewife, in contrast to women of earlier times, is that she has a purse. She goes shopping, she gives alms, she pays fees, she hires labor; she may, if the occasion arises, buy privileges and pay bribes.

She may do many other things with her money. Women make large gifts of land, money, and chattels to church institutions; found convents, monasteries, hospitals, orphanages, and asylums; buy benefices for their sons and places in convents for their daughters; engage in trading operations. They are denounced by priests for usury, pawnbroking, and price manipulations, and for their reckless expenditures for luxury goods. They may travel extensively, sometimes as far as the Holy Land.

A woman of means is always a person to reckon with.
