Imo the most impressive thing Leo’s done is hold this pose for as long as he did while covered head to toe in gold paint:

sevika had a one minute total screen time with zero voice lines in act three but even still they could’ve used visual shorthand to answer some questions. like in episode 7 show alternate universe sevika with a partner/running a business/doing literally anything and we can draw conclusions about her backstory and who she is on a personal level etc. in the final battle show her arcane scars reacting differently to viktor’s manipulation. when she reluctantly takes her place at the council show isha’s goggles tied into her belt or a jinx doodle on her boot to show she mourns those losses. and so on.

In the movie Wicked I think it would’ve been cool to feature Idina Menzel as one of the side characters. My preference for her part would be Madame Morrible, even though she’s a bit young for the part. Having the previous Elphaba cast as the woman tutoring our new Elphaba into this role of power and evil would be incredible.

#24.3 Hatz vs Grace

"Hatz, can you teach me how to wield a sword?"

Hatz recalled a conversation he had with Grace from a few years back. 

"Why?"

"I want to learn swordsmanship. And you seemed to be the best person to ask."

It had surprised him greatly then. After all, he knew that Grace was registered in the wave controller class. And it was a really hard favor to refuse, especially because he took pride in his swordsmanship, and it would be an honor to teach his friend.

Hatz let the memory fade into the present. He adjusted his grip on the wooden training sword that Agni's team had prepared, and took a deep breath to steady himself. 

In front of him, Grace mimicked his move. His form still needed some improvement, but it looked firmer than his first time learning.

"Five minutes. Start!" Dan cheered as he dropped the previously used wrinkled paper from his hand. It hit the ground rather uselessly as none of them took their chance to lunge forward.

Hatz walked carefully to his right, circling Grace. He wasn't sure if he should attack first or wait until Grace made his move.

Everything about Grace was confusing. He offered a hand and befriended him and spent a good amount of time getting to know everyone, but he left without saying goodbye. He knew a lot about the tower, but he didn't know how to play basic card games. He was a pacifist who wouldn't unsheathe his sword at the slightest conflict like Hatz did, but he decided to join FUG, which was the most dangerous criminal syndicate in the Tower. On top of it all, Hatz was still worried about whatever had happened to Grace a few days ago, yet Grace acted like it never happened.

Grace followed his pace and kept their distance, so Hatz decided to make the first move. He let some of his frustration out with the strike, giving it enough force to let Grace know how worried he had made him be for the past years.

However, Grace blocked it rather effortlessly. Just like how his feelings for Grace had never mattered to begin with.

Hatz gritted his teeth. With one smooth motion, he twisted his sword and aimed for another more powerful strike.

If it were a real sword, perhaps it would've cut Grace's palm, with the way he stopped the blade with his bare hands.

Grace let the sword go like it was molten hot. "Ah, oops. Reflex."

Hatz felt a smile tugging at his lips. It was the time like this that reminded Hatz, that Grace wasn't born a swordsman, just like how he wasn't born a wave controller.

There were just things that Grace did in his own way, whether purposely or not. Whether he was or wasn't aware of how his actions would affect others, both good and bad.

"To block that move, I suggest twisting your sword like this." Hatz angled Grace's hand to the image he had in mind, and rehearsed his previous move to make his point. "It'd allow you to block with minimal effort, and be able to prepare yourself for a follow up move."

"Oh that's smart. I'll remember that. Thank you." Grace sounded genuinely impressed that it filled Hatz with pride.

"I thought this was a match! Not a sword training session!" The princess booed from the audience seat.

Some chuckles and cheering could be heard afterward, and they resumed their match.

Hatz realized that Grace still remembered the lessons that he had taught him way back then. And not without improvement too, which proved that he had been practicing now and then.

While it neither solved any mystery regarding Grace nor eased his worry, just knowing that Grace took his teaching seriously had lifted a lot of weight off his heart. Because it showed that Grace cared about the thing that mattered to Hatz, and it made Hatz feel like he was worth something to his dear friend.

The match later ended with a draw, to the majority's prediction.

Can someone explain to me how enforcing what was effectively someone's "Do Not Interact" criteria for them makes me the bad guy?

Their bio said something to the effect of "XYZ Not Welcome", so from my point of view, they've gone out of their way to interact with me and my content, when I'm not exactly shy about saying that I am a part of that person's own specified "not welcome" criteria.

I blocked them to spare myself that hypocrisy headache. Do whatever you're gonna do: but spare me the "Rules For Thee, Not For Me" BS because frankly that sounds exhausting to deal with.

The only reason I even checked this person's account was because I thought something about it was vaguely familiar. Not exactly. Then I noticed the bio, the "unacceptable" criteria, and I thought the situation was over with after I added the name to my blocklist.

But late last night, I got an anon that tried to suggest that it was A.) either the person or a ""friend"" of the person that I blocked and B.) it was, somehow, "weird of me" to do so. Just blocked the anon (which deletes the ask, and doesn't put new names in any of my accounts block lists, to my understanding) so they don't get whatever reaction they must have wanted out of me.

I dunno buddy. Maybe don't interact with a specific kind of person you say isn't welcome or accepted on your own blog, and you won't get blocked? Just a thought for the next time.

We also know there's a reason you or some little sockpuppet account of yours used anon in order to try to fish for the reason you got blocked out of me...
