What I'm most looking forward to with this storyline is Min and Elayne possibly interacting more than they ever did in the books, which was a major oversight on RJ's part considering where they both ended up.

Oh, and don't think we can't see that chain you're trying to hide around your neck, Nynaeve.

in the spirit of thanksgiving

Cang Qiong should have an age old traditional feast.

Depending on who you ask:

It's great. Food, wine, the people you grew up next to and fought side-by-side with. The disciples you've raised.

It's terrible. Awkward small talk, other people's insane opinions (think modern day politics and stuff but xianxia), the adult versions of your fellow disciples(cousins) who either you bullied, or they bullied you, your terrible first kiss, AND those brats you have to teach/the one teacher that just hates you

(Shang Qinghua hates this feast. So, so much. Drunk peak lords, drunk hallmasters, drunk disciples. )

And there's dancing. It's great. It's terrible. All depending on who you ask.

Shen Yuan's first feast makes him dislike them. Between the distance acting as Shen Qingqiu puts between him and everyone else, and the empty void he feels in his ribcage it's not the best. He won't even think or acknowledge it, but it's there.

The feast reminds him of the family dinners from when he was younger.

But there isn't a Shen-mei to lean over to and show stupid memes, there isn't an Er-ge to gossip with, and there isn't a Da-ge to have a late night meaningful conversation with that sticks with you for the rest of your life.

Instead it's a bunch of strangers.

He doesn't actually know them. At all.

To everyone but him, these are the people who they've lived next to for years, shared meals, little joys and burdens, the monotony and life-changing events. Inside jokes and ribbing about choices you made as a teenager.

To him, it's the same as having a meal alone in a bustling restaurant: It's warm, full of laughter and gentle smiles, jokes and stories. And there he is; standing alone.

What's worse? To be completely unknown, or for people to believe they know you, and know your shared history, and be wrong. To have no-one acknowledge you at all, or to be held accountable for actions that are not your own?

As soon as it's socially acceptable to leave, he does so. He shoos all of his little disciples away, telling them to enjoy the festivities.

He comes home to an empty, cold house. At least it's quiet.

(The next feast is bearable. What makes it good is he and Airplane retreat back to the bamboo house together and get blackout drunk. They laugh, they cry, they dance (and sing but they don't remember that.). )

Erestor: Please tell me you did not drag Elrond into this.

Glorfindel: I did not drag Elrond into this.

Elrond: *knocks on the door*

Erestor: Who is that?

Glorfindel: I think you know.

I don't know much about MotoGP. My knowledge in motorsport starts with f1 and ends with its feeder series. However I do know Valentino Rossi, I know that he's lesbian coded and that he and Marc Marquez had a messy divorce. I also know that the sport is basically Spain and Italy. That's it. UNTIL today when I honestly don't know what came over me, I was doing my homework sketches for anatomy class when suddenly I have the unstoppable urge to look up Marc Marquez on tumblr dot com and here's the info I gathered:

They're all sluts

It IS mostly Spain and Italy

Everyone has dogs

Red bull is also there somehow

The Italian Team ™ is also red and they're the biggest in the sport (we love to see it)

There's a guy who married his stepsister (?)

There's so much drama to unfold

That's it for now. I am most definitely intrigued and I felt the need to document this 'cause I have a feeling that I'm about to go down another rabbit hole of motor sports (send help)

Honestly really glad they doubled down on Nynaeve’s block tbh because they did that in the same episode where they were like “here’s this little freak of a Forsaken that even Lanfear is scared of”

And then they’re gonna have Nynaeve who can’t channel be thrust into a homoerotic rivalry for the ages with one of the most terrifying and powerful evil people around, and she can’t even fucking channel against her

It’s gonna make next season TENSE for my girl

meditatively. the unfortunate part of being a "chuuya is set up to succeed mori as the PM's next leader" truther (-> i can and will justify this if asked, but it's not the point rn) is that the #feminist alternative i've often seen people offer as successor is kouyou — i don't think it's a placement that suits her? i think she's content in her current position, and i think she'd be opposed to being set into serving the organization-above-herself in the way that's integral to mori's philosophy re:leadership.

however. However. i do think the reasons that i believe she wouldn't naturally fall into place as the pm's leader make it so much more interesting to explore in fic as a hypothetical what-of.

like. sit down and think with me about 200k words of a kouyou longfic where there's been an incident with a high kill-count and mori's dead and chuuya's... incapacitated somehow? believed to be dead? actually dead? and kouyou is left as the highest-ranked PM member standing. the weird horrible friction of: it's not a position that suits her and it's not the position she wants, but she's the one whose shoulders it's fallen on, and she's the one grappling and wrestling with the burden/responsibility/power in the aftermath. longfic because i think it is a slow, begrudging acclimation, and that it's half-accidental when she shapes herself into a philosophy influenced-by-but-not-the-same as mori's.
