so much happened in this whole episode but i’m still on fig infiltrating ruben’s dream, making it look like the place where his friend was murdered, and then disguising herself as kipperlilly & repeatedly saying different variants of “somebody needs to take the fall for this, and it’s not going to be me. it’s going to be you.” while adaine as the elven oracle shows up next to her. can you imagine waking up from that, the idea of a horrible truth being pinned on you by your friend to save her own skin while the personification of fate and destiny stands there, almost as a promise that this is GOING to happen to you. we don’t even know if this kid is guilty. my god.

are you telling me all merlin had to do was talk to morgana about how yes, everyone is asleep forever and will starve eventually, and I know morgause did that and made you the living carrier of this plague, if you choose to die or have even something else you could do to fix this all will be well
with the knowledge that with her heart of hearts still as beautifully gold as ever that she might well drink that hemlock of her own accord, might have told him hey actually morgause didn't say fuck all to me about no sleeping plague what do you mean by that, with the additional knowledge that kilgarrah is also an unreliable narrator the old people eating old bitch,
And None of that 'Oops evil now because I have no community and no mentorship and all the people that say they love me hate me for who I am implicitly whilst my father is off killing people just like me for the lols off of the consequences of a deal he willingly made'???? Would have ever happened???? argh kilgarrah your days are fucking numbered bitch, gaius I understand that with Mr man being that way and early Arthur being under his thumb like that just ignoring the magic seemed like a safer bet but come ON merlin should have told her
both times, that he has magic and is like her and they'll figure it out together and that hey the current for this plague is possibly you dying and your sister set you up, might you find it in your heart to take this hemlock until she reverses the spell
God she didn't have to be so put upon, she didn't deserve any of this, Arthur and Merlin and Gwen loved her so much, morgause you will not see peace...

Isn't it funny how Eri's whole plotline was that she had to learn how to smile?
Isn't it funny how she was with Pops for a while who could've given her anything she wanted and she still wasn't happy?
Isn't it funny how we never saw Kai smile--not once--in the entirety of his character development? And people are going 'well at least Pops gave him a home-"
Kinda seems like he was a piece of shit, just saying.

So Alice being standoffish and generally rather rude towards Celia cause she's essentially a jealous ex is cute n ok
But Sam being annoyed and exhausted [& therefore rude] when his ex [who is implied to have a history of using slightly-less-moral methods to try and get him to stop chasing his obsessions] was once again seemingly using less-than-moral methods (lying) to once again stop him from chasing after his obsession is just rude and 'I can't defend you for this one'. Bro.

sorry but alicent hightower isn’t “ruined” this season. you people just never understood her in the first place and think of her as something she’s not lmao.
of course she’s a hypocrite, she has been the whole time. her holier than thou persona is a facade. she wants freedom of choice and, with that, sexual liberation. she gets that now with criston at the price of her own shame and guilt tied to her faith, which is real (criston’s faith, at least in the seven, is NOT, but yknow. for another time). her going for what rhaenyra got and what rhaenyra had the freedom to partake in is not character assassination lmao. It’s what’s been set up this whole time. she’s not this saint that she and her stans claim her to be. she’s variably flawed CLEARLY (which is what makes her a good character) but isn’t going to stray away from the exact thing she claims to hate.
“duty and sacrifice” and “honor and decency will prevail” are shown to the viewer to be hypocritical statements. fucking obviously. why did anyone take that at face value LMAO. All those things are what alicent herself has been forced to align with since she was a child made to marry viserys. she wants rhaenyra to ALSO fit that mould and to feel that misery that she’s felt, just as she wishes she had the freedom rhaenyra has. that doesn’t mean she believes in these ideas. she clearly goes against them; that’s her character. she believes that she believes them, but her desire to leave the mould outweighs that time and time again.
to say that she’s an outlandishly different character in s2 after seeing one singular episode is insane. she’s the same. she and criston is not a left field decision, nor is it a particularly bad one, even if it did feel abrupt (which is more a pacing issue). alicent and criston’s joint hypocrisy has been pointed out the entire time. to further highlight it is not bad writing or character ruination. you just didn’t understand them in the first place. Alicent isn’t a blushing nun. she’s a woman whose old decrepit husband is finally dead and now has the freedom she didn’t get at 17.

Ok. So we’re 0/4 for Janelle writing a scene that doesn’t involve the detect thought sex trick but I promise it’s not the focal point like it ends up being in every other scene

if you're wondering what @whinysteve and i are up to — we were both in bed reading fanfic, and i went "is it too late to have some peppermint tea?". it was 10:30 pm. on a friday night. this might just be the the most grandma thing i have ever said (lies. we are always the ultimate lesbian grandmas).
(only now i'm making my tea because yk. executive dysfunction so it took me half an hour to get out bed ayooo)
