"Roger Parslow, I am very pleased you came."

Asriel: "Do you know who your mother is?" // Lyra: "Your choice in women is almost as bad as your choice in bears."

Asriel: “What is the most important question we can ask?” // Lyra: “Where Dust comes from.” // Asriel: "There you are.”

Roger: “Lord Asriel, please!” // “I’m sorry this is happening to you, but in war there are casualties. And believe me when I tell you that this is a war, one that will free humanity forever!”

“I am pleased that you came, Marisa, to see what I have done.”

“The Magisterium have no power anymore, not once the world sees the possibility of all this. It is the end of the Magisterium. After hundreds of years. No more oppression. No more abuse. No more darkness or suppression of knowledge.”

My husband, coming home at nearly 1 AM after a busy Saturday night at the restaurant: Are you ok, babe?

Me, hair wet from the shower, watching Mamma Mia 2, eating a freshly made peanut butter bar, and drinking a Mike’s Hard Limeade: Why do you ask?

☠️ for hannibal to say something unsettling about marisa // multimuse grape vine

      “Killing must feel good to God too. He does it all the time.”

   Hannibal glanced up from the sketch he’d been working on, his pencil paused on a very delicate area of shading. It was from memory, of course. Every detail stored away in his vast memory palace, able to be recalled whenever he wished. At his side on the desk was a scalpel, used for creating a superior point, far better than any pencil sharpener.

   And one never knew when it would be useful to have a weapon to hand in his office.

you know I keep thinking I can sit n listen to Into The Abyss safely, and then every time it specifically gets to the strings that play Marisa's motif at 1:03 and 1:59 I lose the rag and think about the specific shots they play over. on a similar note WHY wasn't the part when she's imprisoned and separated from the monkey put on the album. they only kept up to what plays when Hugh tells them to take her away and i'm so distraught because the strings that play her motif over the vocal segment from Kiss The Ring were soooo beautiful to listen to.

#Possibly unpopular opinion: i love that the monkey isn't named#Marisa Coulter is a liar and a performer#She becomes who she needs to be and says what she needs to say to get what she wants#It is such a part of her to lie and deceive that she lies to the most powerful angel and gets away with it#Of course we don't know her daemon's name#Marisa is 20 layers of deception in a fashionable outfit#Peel back the layers to find the truth and you just find more performing#I bet Marisa herself doesn't use the monkey's name#Does she even remember it?#Does he? --@kingedmundsroyalmurder

LOVE OF GOD, PHILIP!!!

Is That An Earthquake Or Are You Just Happy To See Me?

The day began with a vague disturbance. Was it seismic activity? Inbox tomfoolery? A very happy birthday wake up for @lila-rae?

That last one is between her and Mr LR but

Bottom line: we could sense something coming.

It’s Not The Size Of The Entourage, It’s What You Do With It

We knew Tom was in Scotland and we figured it might be for golf but we did not know until this morning that he brought every single one of his brothers and best mates. So many of his closest dudes in one place made us 🤔

Lord knows he’s a generous friend and his circle is tight, but we wondered what they might be celebrating?

The delulu? It was percolating.

Our Italian Romance: Starring Tomdaya 🎥

We were already abuzz and the delulu was bountiful on the dash when suddenly the most cinematic and romantic photos of our favorite couple dropped. We learned they were canoodling at the gorgeous Castillo di Reschio, with such romantic activities as pasta-making (watch those fingers, Z!) and horseback riding.

And if that wasn’t enough, A POOL DATE. Both of them sunkissed and beautiful, reading books and looking like the movie stars they are.

No, your eyes don’t deceive you. They did switch books. 🫠

Every single one of us immediately wondered why our partners weren’t offering to read aloud to us in the pool at an Italian castle. But then, who hasn’t wondered that at least once?

Dad Said His Tea Was Cold But We Say It Was Piping Hot

As if we weren’t all twitterpated enough from the Italian romcom baecation pics, Zendaya’s Father In Law Dom felt like we needed a glimpse into their everyday life at home. He shared that the newest member of the Coleman-Holland family, Daphne the dog, is a “beautiful” addition to the clan and that her youthful energy has found a fast friend in her aunt Rosie, who is just a year older. Big brother and recent outcast (banished to live with Uncle Darnell, what did he do?) was said to be too old to enjoy the young pups.

Dom was feeling chatty I guess because he didn’t stop there. He went on to share that Zendaya had recently joined Nikki and Dom for dinner at the local pub.

He further said that Granny Tess, siblings, cousins, all the boys and “the dogs” would soon be accompanying him and Nikki on an anniversary celebration trip to Portugal. Dare we hope for more family photos?

Even if we don’t, that’s another bingo square, baby.

Aunt May Has Shipped It For Years

To top off the content-crazy, your favorite aunt and mine, Marisa Tomei, said at an event in Canada that one of her favorite parts of her Spider Man experience was watching Tom and Zendaya grow up and “fall in love.” 🥰

That face she’s making? The I can’t take it they’re so cute face? We were all wearing it. Even the strongest soldiers among us were grinning and kicking their feet. (We saw you, don’t try to deny it!)

While we await word from the pixel analysts on what people starring in their own epic love story read to each other on vacation, and while we bask in all the little details that make the story more real and more beautiful every day, let’s take a moment as I close to appreciate just how hot Zendaya’s back is in this dinner photo.

Until next time, remember my friends: be kind to each other. I love you. I’m wishing that each of you will find the one who thinks reading to you in the pool (Italian or otherwise) is the most perfect day.

And I hope your birthday is as filled with happy surprises as @lila-rae found hers for the third year in a row!

I am only tangentially interested in sports in general, but I just got to see my dad, a lifelong Texas Rangers fan, watch them win their first World Series.

And that’s the best thing to see

The Greatest Movie You'll Never See! - Goncharov (1973)

I believe that I have made the most comprehesive video essay on the 1973 film Goncharov that has been released to date, including restored footage, interviews, and rare behind-the-scenes insight into this forgotten film.

"I was a first year when you were a fourth year. Everyone talked about how amazing you were." Marisa explained. She couldn't help but chuckle at Farah's remark to Asriel, who rolled his eyes but smirked a bit.

"Nothing archaic." Asriel assured. "Just natural charm. Although, that's how we got together, I suppose our reason for marrying is a bit archaic; we had a child and decided it would be best for her if we were married."

Marisa nodded in agreement. She agreed with Farah's other statement about Asriel too, knowing that while Asriel was certainly rough around the edges with other people, with her, he was entirely different. He was warm, affectionate, passionate.

"I was raised by a single mother, and Asriel was raised by a single father after his mother died, so we both wanted to give Lyra what we never had, two married parents that love her."

Again, a smile touched Asriel's lips at that. He brought his hand back to Lyra, who was quick to grip onto Asriel's hand. Lyra loved grabbing things. Marisa learned very quickly to always have her hair pulled back or pinned up when holding Lyra, as she loved to grab and yank it.

She was surprised that the younger woman knew her offhand. "It's lovely to meet you as well. But I don't believe I've done anything to gain any kind of notoriety." She was just a soldier, following orders and protecting the Otherworld from the Burned Ones.

"You actually got someone to marry you?" Farah then asked Asriel wryly, remembering well his insufferable nature from when they were classmates. She doubted it was something he had outgrown over the years. "What kind of archaic fairy magic did you tap into to manage that?"

Turning back to Marisa, she offered her a smile. "Not that I'm judging your taste in men, mind you. Judging from how happy the two of you look, I'm assuming he does after all have some redeeming qualities."
