Elayne trying to hook up with every woman she meets
I love that Aviendha is the one woman who is as focused on Elayne as Elayne is on her.

Elayne trying to hook up with every woman she meets

also moirane basically saying - don't do stupid shit but what am i saying, you are my stupid children
To me, it's odd to see people praise Indara for how she questioned Mae. They asked a literal child about her beliefs - WITHOUT an adult present!! - and then solidified their skewed view of the coven on the word of an 8 year old??
Ask any 8 year old how their country's govt operates. Will they be able to answer in a coherent manner? If you give a push-back question, will they be able to give a satisfactory rebuttal to you arguing their gov't system with them?
Of course Mae isn't going to have the perfect answer to the illogical question of 'but you're a child! How could you possibly lead your coven??'
Because that's NOT what happens - but put on the spot, with only a basic understanding of the traditional responsibility of an ancestral governmental system where the children will rule after their parents, Mae doesn't have a 'satisfactory' answer, but Indara DID succeed in planting a seed of doubt and shame at not understanding in Mae's head.
When a foreign authority figure comes into your home and grills you, an 8 year old, about how your society is run and asks pointed questions meant to indicate that the way your culture does things isn't right (Indara's question was very pointed in that way: make Mae think that her culture is wrong), it's manipulative and cruel.
A child shouldn't have to be able to perfectly answer all those questions. A child should be allowed to not know all the intricacies of their culture. They're a CHILD it's their job to be LEARNING things, not defend their culture to an outsider looking for things to be 'concerned' about.
There's a reason child psychology is so touchy. It's very easy for adults to plant ideas into children's heads and lead them to the conclusions the adult expects. It's quite literally how child brains work: intake info and try to make sense of it - which also translates to learning about a new thing and taking it as the truth even if the adult THINKS they're just questioning something. For a child, the statement 'don't you think that flower looks like it smells so good?' turns into 'that flower smells good because of the way it looks.' Perhaps the adult didn't mean to 'teach' that lesson, but their errant comment could confuse a baby brain trying to figure out how the world works.
Anyways, tangent aside, adults grilling a child about their culture and looking for flaws in it by forcing a child to answer their 'tough' questions isn't good. It isn't reliable data and the Jedi should know better.
SPOILERS>>>>SPOILERS
Master Indara is just as culpable as Sol and Torbin. She covered up the deaths of more than a dozen people. What do you mean it was for Osha?????
Indara let Osha believe her own twin sister caused their mothers deaths.....how is that not pure evil????
Indara is such a reasonable form of evil who says at the end of the day that the dead are already dead so there is no reason to cause more suffering. She is not better than Sol!!
I expected not to enjoy episode 7 because I had gathered a lot of what would happen on Bendarok through the foreshadowing. But I will say that the specific way they showed the cascade of failures from the Jedi in which they were all responsible for the death of the coven. I also appreciated the way that the sisters weren't portrayed as victims without agency though ultimately their deaths were down to the actions of the Jedi.
Sol, from the beginning, responds to the strangeness of the women and the coven with suspicion. The twins' mother's attempts to protect them in the forest are described as not treating them like children. But its not just Sol-- even Indara who is more reasonable describes them as strange and unusual. The irony that the Jedi who raise children without a traditional (by any Star Wars standards) family structure are judging the coven for not treating the children like children while refusing to ask or inquire about their family relationships but asking children for information without context.
Sol's manipulation of Osha during the force testing is suspect but so is the way that Indara first gives him permission, allows it to happen and then chastises him.
Sol is obviously guilty of many things but so is Indara and so is Torbin. Indara is the one who suggests the cover-up of this crime on their part. She even chastises Torbin in a critical moment while absolving herself of the guilt of the situation by suggesting that hiding what happened and blaming Mae is for the benefit of Osha.
Indara was the one to first suggest that letting Osha believe her sister killed her whole family was better than Osha not becoming a Jedi......only for Osha to not become a Jedi.
Torbin was eaten up with guilt for his own part, which was reinforced by Indara, and then by the silence that was pushed by Indara and allowed by Sol. But he ultimately chooses to never speak up and remain eaten by guilt.
In conclusion, Mae should have gotten a free pass to kill everyone
the acolyte is actually just the most elaborate parent trap

There's something about her, about her gentleness that makes it difficult for Dan to look away. Even when looking means seeing the type of monsters that are impossible to describe. There's something about her that soothes the parts of him that have felt lost since a fire too many years ago.
Rings of Power giving me the most unexpected throuple to ship. Anyways Elrond wants to claim the table as his gift because he fully intends on wooing Disa and inviting himself into their relationship as an equal partner.
I wish I could explain why I watched Wheel of Time and my brain loves Egwene x Rand but mostly I just really like Egwene.
I’m tired of Netflix paying dust to all their diverse, unique teen shows.

FOR THE PLOT
fake dating.....out of spite.
Bucky and Sam start fake dating because it bothers John Walker so much but then it uh spirals. (Someone please write a real fic about this)
Bucky/Sam
Bucky/Sam at Sharon’s party
Bucky’d known on some level what being the Winter Soldier again would mean. But it's been hours and he can't get the memory of Zemo caressing his face out of his mind and its making his skin crawl. Being treated like an object, the sense memory of it still lingering even past all the revelations from Sharon and the subsequent party is something he hadn't counted on.

All the Sherlock Holmes purists hating what The Irregulars did to Sherlock Holmes’s character like Sir Arthur Conan Doyle himself wouldn’t have been jealous that they finally succeeded at doing what he couldn’t
I know Sherlock Holmes purists hate The Irregulars but as a chaotic bi, I just want to see this Watson being romanced by Moriarty while Irene Adler hooks up with Mary Morstan.
