The Apothecary Diaries - LN 7, 8 Impressions

The Apothecary Diaries Volumes 7 and 8 by Natsu Hyuuga, Illustrations by Touko Shino. Published by J-Novel Club.

Volume 7 contains the end the of the "Western Capital" arc and the beginning of what I would say is the start of Maomao's next phase/status quo.

Now that she's outside the palace, Jinshi needs a way to keep Maomao around, and he finds it. He compels her to take the court service exam and become a medical assistant. From what you can see in the cover, she clearly passes (after tons of effort) and ends up entering the court service with two other young ladies in the same position.

This entire volume consists of her adventures as a medical assistant while getting embroiled in various side quests related to either her job or the political situation with the neighboring country, Shaoh. They discover a famine on the horizon, and this is an ongoing plot point that started from volumes 3-4. The twists and turns in this book are numerous, and I enjoyed seeing the new characters who get introduced be friendly with Maomao (eventually). Maomao has always been amiable to her female compatriots, but I think this is the first time she has friends that actually understand her thinking when it comes to drugs and medicine.

Volume 8 is kind of a breather, as it focuses primarily on her continued work in the medical office, as well as a deeper look into what Jinshi's day-to-day life actually is, and how he's dealing with the immense work that gets piled on him (not well). There's also a Go tournament setup by Lakan (with Jinshi's help), and the outcome is pretty funny.

I won't spoil any more than that, but the ending of Volume 8 is truly great and shocking.

rambling here (& a little drunk) but it's so interesting coming to les mis from a preexisting maritime/age of sail interest background because like the whole historical situation (well. wrt toulon at least) it's discussing is like. it's very much a side of things you don't think about so much I guess when you're focused on life on board the ships themselves & particularly ships at sea. which -- like tbc my knowledge of this stuff is mostly to do with the royal navy during the same period, which can be very different re: how it functioned, so I don't necessarily know much about the french navy or how obvious this stuff would be if I was reading books about the french navy -- but just the whole existence of the bagne & the prisoners being the ones to help with the ships while they're in port (amongst other things) really makes one think about like idk. how casually you might get someone on the ship referring to 'putting in for repairs' or something in a way you wouldn't think twice about what that might imply. meanwhile then you read this & read the historical background & there's a whole different angle that's absolutely full of horrors. idk idk like I keep thinking about how in post captain (aubrey-maturin series, so written well after les mis & probably deliberately conscious of it while doing this) when they go into the harbor in toulon to meet with christy-palliere during the peace of amiens & there's like half a sentence mention of the convicts on the far side of the harbor unloading stuff from the ships before they go on with their lives (& this is 1802, jvj would literally be over there right then), and it's just background description. and how like every battle you read about, in fiction or non fiction, every time they talk about french ships taking damage or needing supplies etc etc it that it's often toulon (or similar) they'd be limping back to. it's just such a crazy shift in perspective & new consideration of some of the actual sources of this historical labor & how damaging it was beyond what's on the actual ships

#^ sorry for the unedited block of text. I'm just pondering.#like tbc I'm well aware of the general abuses of historical navies & also of proson systems but for some reason this specific #aspect has just never really occurred to me or so e to my consideration before reading this book #in terms of it as like a long term institutional thing #thoughts #like I'm used to thinking about abuses On the ships re: hierarchy class impressment violence etc but this is whole other aspect

No jokes here. The Navy’s best pilot and the Navy’s best admiral. Between them, eight air-to-air combat kills and five stars. These were men who commanded respect with or without your approval. This was the picture of ruthless competence.

Debriefing (& Other Stories) • part 2 of Easier Done Than Said by @compacflt

#easier done than said by COMPACFLT #this is one of my alltime favourite fics rn #and probably for the rest of time too #its a topgun fic written by COMPACFLT and its insane and its so fucking good #its basically a canon rewrite of #top gun 1986 #and #top gun maverick #and spans thirty years of Ice and Mavs relationship #theres just so much in this #so much emotion and characterization and everything #which has driven me insane that im having one hell of a dopamine comedown this week after having read it #i highly reccomended people go read it cause its just really that good #pete maverick mitchell #tom iceman kazansky #bradley rooster bradshaw #jake hangman seresin #i love how the commander wrote mav and ice in this. like theyre clearly military men #but theyre also SO much more #icemav #and theyve taken the canon 'whos the best pilot' and given its own twist #'hes the best pilot in the world'#my heart cant take it anymore #i know im making this sound like 100k words of just fluff but believe me its not #its 30 years of pain and internalised homophobia and time away and falling in love and raising a kid and not once talking about any of it #but the ending is so so so good and the additional parts from different povs literally left me wanting more #i cant do this someone help me go read this go read this go read this #and come cry with me how we cant ever read this for the first time ever again #also shoutout to the commander once again for the insane amount of preplanning and research into the navy theyve done to write this fic #im forver thankful. sorry im a stalker

Ice: Have you ever read something so explicit that you feel like you need to go to church and wash your eyes in holy water?

Maverick: Send it to me.

Ice: No, you're in a meeting.

Mav: So are you! And you're the one reading explicit things during Cain's rant, so don't you give me the eyebrows of judgement from across the room. I see you, Ice.

#ice googling new ways to rail mav in the middle of important admiral meetings #he's just as bored of the politics as mav is #ice is just a bit better at hiding it #they're one step away from sexting in a meeting #slider made the mistake of reading Ice's messages over his shoulder one time #never again #incorrect quotes #top gun #icemav #pete maverick mitchell #tom iceman kazansky #ice hates admiral cain almost as much as cain hates mav #he is the king of passive aggression toward the drone admiral #Ice's eyebrows of judgement are famous throughout the navy

The Apothecary Diaries - LN 3, 4 Impressions

The Apothecary Diaries Volumes 3 and 4 by Natsu Hyuuga, Illustrations by Touko Shino. Published by J-Novel Club.

These two volumes finish out what I would say is the first major story arc in the series. Volume 3 continues the evolving relationship between Maomao and Jinshi (with what I have to say is the funniest romcom scene and deflection by Maomao so far) with further Rear Palace intrigue, while Volume 4 dives deep into the ramifications of a certain high ranking family's actions.

In my personal opinion, while the first 3 volumes were entertaining, Volume 4 was what really got me hooked into this series. There were many plot twists and shocking reveals that culminated from all the intrigue from the previous books. Lots of little details were shown to be building up to a more cohesive story, and I really had a hard time putting this book down.

I've already started reading the next books in the series (I've just finished Vol. 7), and I'll probably do another post when I finish that story arc.
