Small things I love about the Septimus Heap books:

This is a universe where you can have an actual pet rock. Petroc Trelawney has my whole heart and should also have yours.

At one point, an iguana was mowing the loan

The misadventures of Stanley, the rat having to deal with the Heaps (tm) in every book and his failed marriage and the adoption of his children + his job. He is doing his best, okay ?

Grandpa Benji went into the forest one day and never came back, living his life as a tree int he forest.

Sam. I know he is not little but I love Sam Heap and he deserves to be appreciated (the moments between him and Sep are great)

Medieval world ? Yes totally. Is that a submarine and an elevator ? Yes. Don't worry about it. There is no implications here of this being a post-apocalyptic futuristic world. What are you talking about ?

✨Jenna and Septimus killed a man ✨.

And considering what Sep says to her after and the fact that he was a child soldier without a name until he was 10,it probably wasn't the first time for him

Sleuth, Simon's emotional support tennis ball. It's very busy considering Simon is Simon and would need a lot of emotional support. It is also doing its best and should stop being taken by little brats .

Marcia and her fashion choices (tm). Does she need the pointy purple python shoes ? Nooooo. We wouldn't have her without them though.

The illustrations. They are so good. I love them so much.

You can add more if you want..

I remember Simon's story in Septimus Heap having a profound impact on me as a child.

Getting to see this kid who got manipulated by a horrible person into throwing everything away, losing everything. His family, his goals in life, all of that.

And then seeing him slowly recover from that and try to build a life for himself in spite of all that.

He found someone he cared for, and was seemingly content to just live what was left of his life, knowing he could never make up for what he did.

And then he's pulled back in, and multiple members of his family immediately assume that he's responsible for all the horrible shit that's happening.

Like, he's spent several years away from Darke magic, he's been living a life as nicely as he could, and even his own mother and brother assume he's up to something horrible when they see him again.

I still love how Darke took this character arc Simon was going through for the past 3 or 4 books and by bringing Simon into the same room as Septimus, allowed him to really fix things.

Like, he did horrible things in Flyte, and he spends all of Physik, Queste, and Syren kind of rebuilding his life from what I can remember. And then he proves how he's changed by helping Sep with the Darke in that book.

And it's been years, so maybe his story arc doesn't hold up, maybe it's clouded by my childhood memories, but I think writing this has made me realize something.

I think I need to reread Septimus Heap, and whether it's aged horribly or aged well, I need to know.

Can't stop thinking abt marcia and simon!!!! They're the same person!! They're the same person except marcia got the apprenticeship and simon didn't!!! Marcia worked hard for years and then it all paid off but simon worked hard for years and then everything came crashing down around him. Of course he went insane

"Swallowed by a vicious, vengeful sea

Darker days are raining over me

In the deepest depths I lost myself, oh

I see myself through someone else"

I was looking for artistic inspiration, and like a beacon on the shore, he called out to me through the fog

Rereading Septimus Heap when you’re older means going “Simon. Simon, ilu, but you HAVE to stop beefing with 12 year olds. It’s embarrassing. I’m embarrassed for you. Chill out, man.”

Which Septimus Heap character most deserves to say Fuck?

[alchemisticramblings]

what do you mean this wasn't simon in flyte

[friedwizardwhispers]

Septimus Heap really starts its first chapter with the death of a baby and its second with discrimination against wizards and a government with very obvious parallels to real life.

But it's lighthearted book... I promise.

Heaptober Day 5: Siblings

Simon had always been an older brother. He didn’t remember a time without Sam, and before Edd and Erik was hazy at best. It was nice, to always know he was needed, always knowing there was a sibling looking up at him for guidance. 

More than that, it was tiring as all hell. He just wanted one day alone with his mum and his dad, one quiet afternoon where he was the center of attention, not Jenna, or Nicko, the littles, not the chaotic twins or the wandering Sam. 

But simon knew that was never going to happen, not unless he engineered it very, very, carefully. 

So he did. 

One weekend, Simon arranged for Sam to take Nicko and Jenna fishing. He got Edd, Erik, and Jojo a spot on the children’s barge for the day, ticket money saved up from odd jobs and supplemented with a 3 for 2 coupon he had found and doctored into a 3 for 1.5. 

It was worth it, when he had a moment of quiet in the room, an option to lay down, stretch out, sing at the top of his lungs. He got the chance to talk to his mum and dad about his dreams, to be a kid again. 

Simon just wished he hadn’t had to be the one to organize it. 

Oh well.
