Tenar with the Ring of Erreth-Akbe. 

“A dark hand had let go its lifelong hold upon her heart. But she did not feel joy, as she had in the mountains. She put her head down in her arms and cried, and her cheeks were salt and wet. She cried for the waste of her years in bondage to a useless evil. She wept in pain, because she was free.”

Im realizing this is disproportionate so I’ll fix it up and edit tomorrow sometime

everyone’s always asking what’s wrong with the farseer family but no one’s ever asking what’s right with the farseer family which is [extremely loud tv static for several minutes straight]

i genuinely love that the way k.a applegate resolves the issue of needing the alien on the team to be able to drop plot crumbs without totally solving everything for the human kids is by making aximili-esgarrouth-isthill a jock who only tangentially paid attention to when his teachers were explaining, like, the andalite equivalent of how to find the cosine of a triangle, and now he's in an astronomically rare circumstance where the fate of an entire species depends on him remembering how to do that. and he's cold sweating trying to recall the answers to homework problems he didn't do. and also he's always lying.

ax is literally experiencing like if you got teleported back several hundred years and everyone was expecting you to explain the precise mechanisms of how cell phones work to them and if you don't come up with a sufficient explanation they're all going to die. And he's not enjoying it.

i love fake plot holes

little inconsistencies that at first you assume "oh, the author must have fucked up", but then later on you realize that no, it was on purpose, they wanted you to think they fucked up but they hadnt

[masterboa]

related: when you think "this has Implications the author didn't think about" and then it turns out the author was thinking about them the whole time

the worst thing about ardbert as a character is that they called him ardbert and before that you just knew him as 'the warrior of darkness' which is arguably even worse. and they gave this terribly named man the most generic White Guy No. 4 character design you've ever seen in your life so when you first meet him you're like pffft there is no way you will make me care about this dude. and then the game pushes you in the dirt and says you WILL care 🫵 you are going to cry over this man. you are going to cry so fucking hard.

and then of course you do. and then you have to reckon with the fact you're now emotionally invested in a guy called ardbert

(sitting across from robin hobb) so. we’re meant to understand that burrich was a stablehand for lord oakdell when he was young, which is how he met patience. but in assassin’s quest he explains that he was raised in chalced, and when he was old enough to seek employment, he first served under a chalcedean chieftain, and then duke grizzle of shoaks, before being taken in as a crack troop for prince chivalry. in fool’s assassin you reference letters written to patience that burrich is going to “begin seeking military service” so he can win her hand, which confuses me because supposedly that is how he first arrived in the duchies. it also implies that he is able to write prior to military service, even though in assassin’s quest burrich says that chivalry was the one who taught him how to write. i’m also curious about why burrich’s chalcedean heritage and childhood was never examined by the narrative aside from the infamous gay freedom earring, which (chuckles) naturally loses its historical and symbolic significance throughout the story and in fandom conversations due to its pivotal role in multiple awesome bisexual pairings. but as we know, the duchyfolk harbor strong prejudices against chalcedeans, so burrich— (robin hobb pulls out her gun and fires three rounds into my abdomen, effectively putting me out of my misery)

gotta be honest I think a REAL juicy dynamic is when someone has a True Love and a Soulmate and they are two different people

[nat-20s]

see this person is the love of my life I would follow them anywhere every day is brighter for having them in it. and THIS bastard shares a soul with me we'll find each other in every universe and understand each other in ways no other living being could. neither of us are particularly thrilled about this
