just remembered that there are canonically gay people in Keeper of the Lost Cities. actually insane. 2018 would've thought you were crazy if you told me that.

[fintan-pyren]

I will be fully honest: I have more or less entirely erased the existence of Sokeefe from my mind [ninth forgotten secret in my cache], and I didn't even remember that it existed until you guys started tagging the blonde4blonde proshipper post with "nobody knows this is actually about sokeefe".

[fintan-pyren]

To be clear, that post does not apply to Sokeefe. Shipping Sokeefe is never morally okay.

I think the importance of any Keeper character is inversely proportional to the amount of pagetime they get

[fintan-pyren]

Cyrah, Caprise, and Prentice get almost no page time, and aren't mentioned for stretches of several books at a time, and yet everything seems to be coming back to them. It's almost as though the true plot of Keeper happened a decade ago, and this series is just watching the consequences of it unfold.

[fintan-pyren]

Or thousands of years ago, even. We still don't know how it all fits together, but Vespera, Fintan, Fallon, and Luzia are all starting to be linked back to it as well.

[fintan-pyren]

It almost feels like there's some kind of recurring cycle. The group twelve years ago was working to uncover old secrets, almost the same as the present-day crew, and their fates [brain damage, deaths, missing memories] seem remarkably similar to those of the Ancients.

[fintan-pyren]

We don't talk enough about the way Gisela talks about Cyrah's death

[fintan-pyren]

We also don't talk enough about Cyrah owning a starstone that leads directly into Lady Gisela's bedroom.

Wylie’s and Sophie’s lives are so fucking intertwined it’s insane they dont interact more

It’s already been described how Sophie is both the reason and the solution for his father’s broken mind. But it goes even further than that really. Wylie grows up being able to see through the shining illusion of the Lost Cities’ perfection and grows up so lonely and full of grief because of it, his status as a functional orphan and the child of an exile making it impossible for his peers with perfectly untouched lives to relate to him, and yet he must go about life as normal because he doesn’t have the resources or the hope to resist against the establishment that is the ultimate source of his pain. So it’s easy for him to be angry when Sophie’s being brought to the Lost Cities, since it’s a fresh cut over a very old, festering wound and he’s still not able to do anything about it, and the Moonlark his father was broken for doesn’t even seem to know what’s going on.

But Sophie’s appearance also brings an outside perspective that creates cracks in the illusion of the world’s perfection, and the more she learns about the world and falls in with the rebels Prentice was part of, the faster those cracks appear, and more people finally begin to understand what Wylie’s known his entire life. She gives him the father he thought she stole, and he starts to finally have a chance to process the grief he’s endured. He doesn’t have to pretend like everything he went through was normal.

Sophie’s existence is a knife in the chest, it’s life-saving surgery, and it’s a broadcast signal to the world that he was even hurt in the first place. Wylie is a symbol of everything Sophie’s creation was meant to help solve, and that it might even work. And they were never even really friends
