(book 6 spoilers. very heavy. like two of the big plot twists in this one)
I like book 6 for a lot of reasons but the biggest reason is the absolutely fucking inSANE three chapter run in it that is possibly the worst whiplash I've ever gotten from a book. I am of course talking about the Snake Eyes - Flesh And Blood - The Agatha Quartet run. So we've got
Snake Eyes - the (frankly. insane) reveal that Rafal is the TCY twin's dad. insane. unreal. Why would they do that. who's going to tell Sophie. Mad. Surely we need a Moment to recover from this very important revelatio-
Flesh And Blood - not even kidding it's all of the japeth lore. just like all of it. The first half of the chapter is literally just the events leading up to book 4 from his perspective. So surely the second half is some cool fight scene ri WRONG. ARIC. suddenly turns into (in my opinion) the most devastating chapter in book 6. we get some of the best Japeth Dialogue (tm) (oh??? you genuinely actually would've like given up the crown for him? Aric essentially tells him the best course of action is just to kill himself? right! okay!). it's not actually Aric and japeth like works it out or whatever but okay. okay. I'm prepared this time. Third devastating chapter. I can deal with-
The Agatha Quartet: haha guys they don't know which one's the real Agatha!!!! and Sophie's got to work it out!!!!!!! by asking them silly little questions!!!!!!!!!!!! this is a normal chapter progression!!!!!!!! This is so fun and silly!!!! im in literal tears
Absolute madness. This is why book 6 is second in my ranking
#this is a very very old draft but I reread it and I think this is worth posting. my many many book 6 drafts#yeah im mad about this chapter run. killed japeth enthusiasts everywhere. maybe that's why there's No One Else#I love Agatha quartet I dont know if that was clear or not its like my favourite bit of chapter art#Snake eyes is also okay like its a good double run with flesh and blood for lore purposes#flesh and blood they could never make me hate you#seriously that line where japeths like “where was this Aric when you were alive? who was so kind and thoughtful to me?” took me OUT#sigh. rest in peace japeth sader mistral you would've loved. im not sure actually. probably just herbal tea#sge#tsfgae#school for good and evil#the school for good and evil#japethposting#sfgae#is this aricposting? I guess it is#not using the tag though
