[probablygayattorneys]

I mean, I knew Sycamore was Descole. I was prepared for that. I was NOT prepared for his little quick change and Juliana, who’s watching me play, saying in the most unimpressed tone. “Oh, God. This Phantom of the Opera looking motherfuker.”

Remember in TBONA when Evangeline finds Auroras diary, and in the book Aurora has repeated again and again that she has cursed it so if anyone but her reads it they die. Evangeline doesnt really believe it to be cursed and neither did i at first. But I looked at the wording again at it is written:

Do not read unless you wish to die shortly thereafter. I have cursed this book!

And Evangeline does die somewhat shortly after reading the diary, and with what we learn about Aurora in the ACFTL, I do believe Aurora succsesfully cursed the diary.

Oh don't mind me, I'm just sitting her thinking about the companions desperately trying to revive Durge after rejecting Bhaal, but absolutely nothing seems to work and they're all starting to panic, and their LI is this close to breaking down completely

And then Withers shows up like :)

wait hold on are they saying--

so like, peace barely lasted after henrik's people took over and then the three fairies blessed silver to fall asleep for however long it takes until the fighting is done, and to be awoken by someone who truly loves him?? but like obviously he's already awake so either the spell wore off or broke as soon as lilia entered?? 😭 and also, lilia said it's been 300-400 years since he's been back to the castle?? silver is technically 300+ years old?!

TBONA SPOILERS!!

Questions I wish get answered in Book#3 :-

Why is Eva immune to Jacks' powers? As his true love, she would only be immune to his kiss, not his powers. Infact, the only other people who've been stated to be immune to his influence are immortals. (Gavriel said it in Finale)

How much did Eva forget? She remembers her parents' death, so does she remember Luc? If Apollo removed only memories of Jacks', wouldn't she remember who he is, too?

The gold-flecked blood on the angel's wings-is it Jacks? What happened to him?

On that note, why is his blood gold-flecked? As far as I remember, Gavriel's blood wasn't? Oh, and if his blood is gold-flecked, why are his tears normal blood red?

In OUABH, Eva comments on seeing "a hint of a rough scar on his chest", but when she sees him shirtless in The Hollow, there's no scar? Only smooth skin? Did it get healed by the vampire venom, or was it an effect of the mirth stone? (Evangeline thinks of the mirth stones power as 'takes away fear and heals wounds')

Where did Phaedra and Havelock go? And what did Havelock want to tell Eva before he disappeared? Also, what did Phaedra's tattoo mean? Who are the Damned?

LaLa mentions the one she loved was a dragon shifter- coincidentally, one of the Valor children, Dane, was also a shifter. Aurora also mentions in her journal, "I don't think she's right for my brother, either". So is LaLa's love Dane, or Castor, who we've been told has history with her?

Now that Eva's memories are gone, how is Apollo going to explain it away? Is he going to blame it on Jacks? Or an unfortunate accident? Or is he gonna pretend she was under Jacks influence all along?

Are the Protectorate/Marisol going to take advantage of her now?

Speaking of the Protectorate, where is the Fortuna Matriarch now? How did Tiberius escape?

Why does Jacks tell Evangeline "This is the worst idea you've had yet" when he doesn't even know she'd gone to visit Tiberius?

What was the deal with the Darling sisters? Why's Jacks suddenly nice to them?

Since the Valors have awakened now, are they gonna overtake North's throne now? Does that mean Apollo can die without putting the North in a crisis now?

Why and How and Who put the Valors in a suspended state? The Arch's story makes it seem like there's something to with Castor, but what was the exact reason? It's not like the people knew what was up?

In the first run, Chaos never screams when his helm is opened, so why does he scream the second time around? What changes?

i thought “after i get the bad ending i’m gonna rewatch the good ending to cheer myself up” but honestly watching the successors die is making me so sad i’m gonna need a whole nother good ending run to feel better after this OTL

[undead-potatoes]

Aurora starting out so very cautiously after waking up on that beach, terrified of leaning into her bloodlust and rage in fear of making the urges worse, to tentatively sating some of it through battle as a necessary evil, the urge building and building as she fights to keep it down, until she eventually throws all caution to the wind and lets her rage loose entirely as she knows she will never be free of it, destined to die with her own blood thrumming like a war drum in her head.

Only to have that rage save her, as she all but spits in the face of Bhaal when he offers her a place by his side again, furious he ever made her his puppet. The thing she feared the most, the monster she's been fighting to keep inside of her for months, is let out of its cage, and it's what eventually saves her from herself.
