FFRMC day 1: Comfort Read

so much spring

fitzier, post-rescue

Summary:

In the half-year since their return, Francis had become aloof, impassive, withdrawn. There was no logic to this strange metamorphosis. At Greenhithe, Francis had promised to look after him. Had told James: Come find me. Yet Francis had never been further out of reach. On a cold spring day in 1849, Francis drops everything and flees London for his sister's farm in Ireland. James, hurt and hungry for answers, gives chase.

This wasn't the first fitzier fic I read after I finished the show, but it was one of the earliest ones I came across! Something about it is just so comforting to me; I love the descriptions of rural life and the way James and Francis reconnect afterwards. There's a tiny bit of angst, but to me it makes the tenderness at the end of the work all the sweeter. Coming back to it always feels like drinking a warm cup of tea. I've read it so many times it's frankly embarrassing, but their first kiss at the end blows me away every single time. It's stuck with me ever since I read it the first time, and I can't wait to read it many times more.

In the puzzle house why was kppar obsessed with unicorns?

I'm assuming he knows more about them than we do. He's already located a map and kidnapped its guardian, Kruha. when the plot begins. I believe that the unicorn decorations and lantern in the Puzzle House itself were all part of his scheme to trick Claudia into finding and reading the hidden map without darkening her heart with the knowledge of what had been done to possess it nor what it was intended for - which worked perfectly, by the way.

Great job manipulating a kid, guys! 👍Dark magic is so fun and wholesome!

But it seems that the map itself leads to an actual unicorn, or something unicorn-adjacent, which is what Kpp'Ar was after all along. And Puzzle House is set before Sarai is killed - she's in the early part of the story, pregnant with Ezran - so Viren isn't trying to get it for vengeance reasons. Either Viren or Kpp'Ar wants that unicorn item really badly, and we're never given enough information to determine why that is.

But Kpp'Ar's unicorn puzzle is really complicated. I don't think it's a super recent development - he'd been planning it for some while, which means he probably held Kruha prisoner for even longer, and had been searching for clues to the unicorn knowledge he wanted for longer still. This could easily have been a years-long plan on his part, and for all we know, Viren could've introduced Claudia to dark magic specifically for the purpose of reading that map.

Dark magic! Fun for the whole family!

tldr: we don't know what Kpp'Ar wanted with the unicorn map yet. We might never know, but it could also turn out to be some really important plot point somehow.

Maybe we'll learn more about what he knows in S6. I do hope we get some interactions with him, whether they're about opening coins, or unicorns, or freeing Aaravos, or dark magic, or Viren's past, or anything, really. He could have so much to share, if someone could find a way to communicate with him or free him.

take responsibility

if it's good enough for you, then it deserves to be made. don't let anyone else decide if your story is worth it or not.

i think theres this idea in the general public that the "best" fanfic gets turned into real books like 50 shades of grey. but the truth is that the best fanfic can never be published as an actual book because its intricately woven into the canon material so its inseparable even if you change the names

Following the author of The Last Unicorn on Facebook is the only thing that makes being on that site worthwhile.

ok so i think that my favourite fantasy subgenre is The Inherent Tragedy Of Being Born Into Royalty. which mostly means that i like to read about gay princes but with some nuance

If my mom sees a significant amount of blood she gets lightheaded, and has fainted on some occasions. Once it happened when we were kids, I wasn't there to witness it but I heard the story from my dad. Basically my brothers, around 7 or 8 at the time, were playing outside while my mom was making their lunch, and she accidentally cut her finger. It wasn't anything serious, but it drew a fair bit of blood and she passed out. My dad saw this and rushed over, but he didn't really know what to do so he just sort of started slapping her to wake her up (not recommended, but he had no idea and panicked)

At that exact moment my brothers both came in from playing, and all they saw was our mom unconscious on the floor and our dad slapping her. So, like, without even saying a word to each other they both just INSTANTLY start whaling on him, like, full blown attack mode to defend our mom. Which obviously didn't help the situation, but she did wake up and everything was fine.

Now our dad says that he's actually really glad they attacked him over what they thought was going on, because it means he raised good boys. And I still think that's true, they're very good boys.

In my heart, Ford once went to an ice dimension and got Really Good at ice skating, and now he's absolutely insufferable about it.

why do ben affleck and matt damon have their own separate wikipedia pages and also one conjugal one
