ok im just going to cry now

While Rupert and Amir’s love literally saved two countries and destroyed the CEOs of homophobia and hating your wife, I feel like Sir Joan and Lady Cecily’s romance (or future romance bc it WILL happen) is powerful in a different sense? I mean here you have this girl, who has fought her entire life to prove her worth, first to her father, then to her queen, then to the elites. She’s always fighting adversaries and policies... Joan falling in love with someone so ready to love her and love being with her is Joan allowing herself to be soft and vulnerable with someone... to drop the formalities and show her true self knowing her traits won’t be exposed for weaknesses to discredit her abilities. And Lady Cecily grew up with the expectation she will Marry A Man and Sit Pretty and Have Children. After the curse is broken she realizes she can be anything... and who helps her realize that? Joan! Joan who told her to fight and be proud because of it. Joan taught her that she had worth, that she was more than what she could give others, and she had control of her destiny. It only makes sense that Cecily pursues the woman that taught her that, because Joan saw more in Cecily than the world ever did. Rupert and Amir’s relationship is about balance, but Joan and Cecily is about growth.

JUNE OF ARC continues!  Mondays and Fridays all June long!

JOKE-OGRAPHY: 1. When Joan was 16 years old, the English were sieging the city of Orléans, and her Voices told her it was her job to banish them.  She had to go to Vaucouleurs, acquire knightly escort from Sir Robert, travel through enemy territory to Chinon, meet the dauphin (the uncrowned prince of France), offer her leadership to his army, go to Orléans, raise the siege, then escort the dauphin through more enemy territory to be crowned in the city of Reims (which was the traditional place for French coronations).  Super easy.  Barely an inconvenience. 2. Sir Robert de Baudricourt met with Joan but denied her request for escort twice before finally giving in.  Her persistence won her the support of the townsfolk first, then some of Robert's knights, then finally Robert himself.  She's our perSISTER in Christ! 3. In this cartoon, Robert is suspicious of Joan, saying her request to see the dauphin can't be serious.  She assures him it "DAUPHIN-ately" is, which is a play on the word "definitely" using the word "dauphin".

On the show, I want to see the family surprised by Eloise really taking to step-motherhood.

I am excited to see Daphnes reaction to Eloise who had always bemoaned women being straddled with children, become a loving step mother. I like to think the twins look at her like she hung the moon.

In the book, I felt she struggled more with becoming a wife than a mother.

Do you agree or disagree?

Oh you are not wrong on that. She absolutely did adapt faster to motherhood than she did to being in-love. The thing is that what did it for Eloise is that she felt needed in Phillip's household. The way she felt she wasn't truly needed anywhere else.

When she decides to stay in Romney hall, she doesn't do it because of Phillip, at first. But because of his children. Because Oliver and Amanda need her. And they need her in the sense, that Eloise knows as soon as she meets them, that her particular personality and combination of personal quirks IS going to make their lives better. So she rationalizes that she can't leave them. And as such, she must impose of Sir Phillip's hospitality. Because finally there is someone who's life she's making better by just being herself.

She doesn't tell herself she wants to be their mother, or their step mother as the case may be. In Eloise eyes what she's doing is standing up for the weak and defending Oliver and Amanda's right to free speech and better treatment from their father. Which is a very noble cause.

Watching Eloise discover that she is in fact a very capable mother to Oliver and Amanda is very funny. Because she just takes charge like she was born for it. And doesn't let anything stop her from actively advocating for these kids, who just need someone to listen to them.

And I hope that this is the direction they take Eloise with in the show. I want to see show Eloise pass from being this belligerent dissatisfied young woman who does not like kids, to one that slowly comes to the realization that nobody has ever needed her the way Daphne needs Simon, or the way Colin needs Penelope. And then, she finds that at first, it's Phillip's kids who need her. Not as a mom, but as a brave woman who can speak up for their best interests. And in the end she discovers that she may not think she's made for motherhood but neither is Phillip, and for the first time in her life, she realizes that this is okay. There are a million ways to be a good mother and she doesn't have to be like Daphne or Violet. Maybe she can be more like Mary.

And it's Eloise insistence in fighting for the twins emotional well being, that she gets to know Phillip better, and fall inlove with him later in the story. The whole being a wife thing was harder because in a sense, that was the one thing Eloise wasn't prepared for. Nobody ever prepares you for love, it just happens, and Eloise likes to control everything that happens to her, but she doesn't control her heart. So this was more of a struggle for her. Learning how to be a wife and a lover when all she knew before didn't compare to what she was feeling with Phillip.

And that's the tea

As much as I loooooove S1 of Elementary it’s almost painful to watch Sherlock be rude and dismissive to Watson like Sir!!! That is your soulmate and you love her (platonically) soooooooo much. You would die for her, kill for her, even harder, you would change for her. Now stop being sassy and devote yourself wholly and completely to your life partner already.

If Sir Thomas Gray's letter of confession to Henry V can be believed, Cambridge in the summer of 1415 was entertaining fantastic delusions. He told Gray, who was staying at Conisborough castle on 17 June, that the Scottish regent, Robert Stewart (c. 1340-1420), duke of Albany, was willing to trade the pseudo-Richard II in exchange for one of eighteen prominent Englishmen, headed by Bishop Courtenay of Norwich (one of the king's most trusted councillors), and the head of the Nevill clan, the staunchly Lancastrian Ralph, earl of Westmorland, who was married to Henry V's aunt, Joan Beaufort. Needless to say, there was no possibility that men of high rank would put themselves at Cambridge's disposal or become available to be used as hostages in these bizarre negotiations. Perhaps the Scottish regent, unwilling to disclose that his puppet was no longer alive, and eager to keep up the pretence that Richard II still survived, had stated unacceptable terms to evade coming to an agreement with Cambridge. It should have been obvious to Sir Thomas Gray as he rode homewards that his host, the earl of Cambridge, had lost touch with reality, and memories of that astonishing conversation at Conisborough castle, when the two men rashly talked of treason, should have been enough to deter him from getting more deeply involved in such preposterous schemes.
