#TheOrder

[ships-sailing-above]

I have loved The Order for over a month now and I’m still not over it

the knights are a fun group, want to be their friends, especially with Randall Carpio

want to be an acolyte, besides the switching sides thing I’d study magic hard like Alyssa Drake

don’t know how Vera Stone holds multiple jobs: queen I mean Chancellor of Belgrave University, Grand Magus, the actual voice of reason in the Council, someone with a value system other than privilege, babysitter, teacher, wife to Hamish ofc they’re endgame, fashionista we love business bondage

vermish has my whole heart

[scionsthings]

Honestly worth it 100% recommended

[ships-sailing-above]

you ever try to figure out the little details in scenes, like finding all the hidden Mickey or Easter eggs? or just notice something different or particular that gives more insight on a scene/character?

so with the last? episode of The Order on Netflix

Ive been trying to figure out that conversation between Vera and Hamish

when he’s like “it’s alright to let someone care about you” 🥺

and she’s like “there’s no point” 😒😔

at that moment I thought there was a single tear that fell down from Vera’s eye and it was difficult to tell on Netflix

but after watching some fan vids it’s trueeee

another sign of how Vera truly cares for Hamish: it hurt her that she had to push him away because letting him care for her, even if she wanted him, would only lead to heartbreak because she is dying from Fors Factoram

💔 gosh my vermish heart

[ships-sailing-above]

more things I realized about The Order particularly on themes

spoilers ahead!

ok ikk the show is like 2+ years old but this is if any newcomers come by

⭐️

themes: cheating death / risky life and death situations

so there’s no clear answer that Vera Stone used Fors Factoram but she basically did based on her reaction 💔 and her knowledge about the incantation (and seemingly how very few know about it she must’ve done something to protect it)

Vera risks her life so many times for the greater good. There also have been many attempts on her life. She has cheated death when she casted Fors Factoram some time ago (time period is an assumption)

S1

- the necromancer sisters could’ve gone after Vera, especially Renee’s sister after the wolves botched the Elemental Transferrence

- Alyssa was supposed to kill Vera but Vera showed her who Coventry truly is

- Vera was the only one to see through Coventry and be brave enough to stand against him. She had to play the political game to figure him out and turn people against him, and even sided with the dangerous (at the time for her) wolves

S2

- Rogue wolves could’ve killed many Order members including Vera

- Foley set Vera on fire and a budding practitioner wouldve definitely perished from that. I mean girl had no skin anymore omg that was a scary scene. Powerful queen to heal herself from that

- Rogwan, Vera was going to sacrifice herself for the Excidium spell. Lilith saved her by defeating Rogwan

- Vera was supposed to die from Salvador’s suicide plan but Jack saved her and she even risked killing Salvador first although they were bound by ribbons (she didn’t call Jack for help to cut the ribbons she just shot Salvador)

- In the final ep Alyssa was going to kill Vera (maybe even the time when Alyssa took Vera’s magic if Vera didn’t have the knowledge on Fors Factoram) but ended up not

- Midnight came for Alyssa but didn’t go after Vera when earlier in the ep Jack was like oh shit Midnight is gonna go after both of them

Angels cannot tell lies and will only tell the truth or avoid speaking altogether if they cannot be truthful. Whether this is due to their obligations to God or they are simply incapable of conceiving of lying is unknown. Angels will verify their identity and stick to the point of their visit to you. They will stay on topic and quickly depart once their message is delivered or their mission carried out for they detest being away from their Lord for long.

Demons, by contrast, are habitual liars that disguise themselves as angels to lure the innocent and ignorant. They too, will claim to be an angel but will attempt to engage in conversation with you. Never speak to a demon, no matter how innocent or well-meaning their inquiries may be as they can and will use any information they glean against you. 

—St. Ignacio Navarra, Treatise on the Celestial and the Demonic. circa.1656

Finding Elysium; Part One.

Lights flashed through the hospice as Paithien ran down the hallway, golden hues settling on the patient being carried in, the sound of that distress call still ringing in her ears. Mayday, mayday, mayday; This is the captain of the airship Shattered Elysium. We are experiencing critical failure and are going down. This is Fleet Admiral Alexander Iceblade. All available units, respond to that distress call immediately. I am activating crisis plan six, engaging Order Magi in all major cities. The Order's crisis teams - consisting of three mages and four rangers - erupted into action as the distress call went out. All over the world, portals were torn open to Tanaris. Red flashing lights, alarm bells ringing. Sand and fire. Images of the crash site flashed through her mind as she watched the Order’s newest member haul Vaerin through a portal.  (TW: Injury, medical supplies - IV, Needles, etc.)

"Get him into room two, get Northaren in here.” Paith ordered, tying blonde hair into a tight ponytail and starting to wash her hands.

The hospice was in complete disarray after the crash of the Shattered Elysium. The once sterile and organized halls were now in complete chaos, with debris and rubble scattered everywhere. Patients who were once recovering peacefully were now screaming in agony, their cries for help echoing through the halls. The smell of smoke and burning flesh hung heavily in the air, mixed with the scent of disinfectant and spilled blood.  Needles were prepared, IV’s set on their racks. Machines were turned on.

The medical staff were doing their best to help those who could still be saved, but the sheer number of wounded and dying made it seem like a hopeless task. Some were too injured to even move, lying where they had been put by their rescuers, waiting for the end to come. Others were being tended to by overworked healers, who were forced to make difficult decisions on who to save and who to ease the passing of. 

Vaerin Emberwalker is brought into the operating room on a gurney, his body limp and pale. His chest heaves with labored breaths as he is swiftly transferred onto the operating table. The room is dimly lit, the only sources of light being the small lamps hanging overhead and the monitors that beep in a steady rhythm. The scent of antiseptic fills the air, mixed with the coppery tang of blood.

 The medical team rushes around Vaerin, checking his vitals and assessing the extent of his injuries. They work with precision and urgency, their movements quick and efficient as they move to stabilize him. Vaerin's shirt is cut away, revealing the extent of his injuries. His chest is bruised and battered, three broken ribs jutting out from his skin. His wrist is mangled, with a deep gash where a piece of jagged pipe tore through his flesh. A small pool of blood has formed under him, evidence of his punctured lung.

The team moves to work on his injuries, the sound of clanking metal tools filling the room. Paithien spouting orders and demands as they went. The crisis response team moved with the speed and grace of a well-rehearsed dance, their movements precise as they work to save Vaerin's life.

Despite their best efforts, the sense of hopelessness and despair in the air is palpable, as if the very walls of the room are closing in on them, eager to claim the Captain’s life after he’d avoided death for so long.

Finally, after what feels like an centuries, the team manages to stabilize Vaerin's injuries. They carefully move him to a nearby recovery room, monitoring his vitals closely.

                   Days passed...

Despite his stabilization, Vaerin Emberwalker still slept. Not a twitch of his muscles, just the slow, rhythmic breathing of the machines at his bedside. The Order’s doctors were busy saving more lives from the crash, so the Captain slumbered alone. 

[societyofsaintignacio]

“The most persistent and troublesome force the Church and faithful alike face is not werewolves, vampires, basilisks, or even demonic possessions but rather a demonic phenomenon aptly named Spawn for their ability to reproduce at an alarming rate. An infestation of the creatures can easily overwhelm and render large areas ‘dead zones’ if the initial signs of Spawn are not handled quickly and with aggression.

The exact origins of Spawn isn’t clear, although their supernatural properties are undeniable. Some theorize that they were born out of the sin and brokenness of our world and that their grotesque and unnatural appearance is a testament to their Satanic origins. Spawn tend to appear humanoid although there are reported cases of beast-like Spawn. However they may appear, their very existence is an insult to God’s creation and perfect design and they must be destroyed.

In experiments with live specimens, I have found that Spawn can be easily contained in an area via holy water, salt, fire, or consecrated objects. The creatures are impervious to injury and rapidly heal just as quickly as they had been wounded, however. Weakening the creatures with holy water before striking them down with a weapon that had been blessed is the only way to effectively exterminate these abominations and prevent them from reproducing.

It is my recommendation that any priest willing to take on Spawn mustn’t go alone. He risks certain death doing so."

-From St. Ignacio’s research notes, circa. 1658

omg. did Vera summon clothing for Hamish?

so season 1 of The Order on Netflix, we see that when werewolves transform they need to find clothing when they revert to human.

when Hamish and Vera fight against the Order together in record time #teamwork #risingcouple and they get back inside the den looking haphazardly, Hamish is dressing himself up with a robe

season 2 when Hamish instinctively transforms and hurls Angus immediately when Angus angrily tries to confront Vera, his clothes change. It’s a different outfit from before. And there is only a few seconds between the scenes so something must’ve happened for Hamish to dress super quickly, either he just dresses fast or he got some help.

feels like Vera instinctively magicked some clothing for him ;)

also it would help continue the theme of clothing~ for vermish. The vest. The robe acting as a pillow.

SPOILERS FOR THE ORDER S2 FINALE

🚨spoilers🚨

omg I just realized

a lot of Vermish moments

so when Midnight came for Alyssa, Hamish came through from a different entrance, the same entrance he came to get inside the table area thing with Vera. He was looking out for her!

also when Alyssa took Vera’s powers and knocked Hamish out he woke up with a makeshift pillow of Vera’s grand magus robes oooo

also back to their final scene with Vera in her office he is wearing a black blazer he wasn’t wearing it when he came running for her to see if Midnight went for her or not. matching fits 🤧💞

I love them

Are you speaking to the stemware?

[loveallthegays]

"Prime Beef" what is this?

[ships-sailing-above]

themes of proving the necromancers wrong in Netflix’s The Order

so Rachel was surprised when Jack and Alyssa’s actions ended up differently in what she predicted

Renee (older) predicted that Vera will have cats insinuating that she will always be alone

well uh

vermish is definitely endgame ✨
