EoM return in the fall!

As someone who hasn't watched EoM yet, I'd like to catch up in time, but I also haven't finished CoS (I'm on ep. 17) or watched BDW yet.

Do I need to watch CoS and BDW for EoM?

Yes

No

SPOILERS FOR SDRA S2 EPISODE 4!!!

I FINALLY GOT MY CANON PORTIA BELLA CONTENT. AND I WAS RIGHT WITH SO MANY THINGS. But here are some things that stood out for me about her that was sprinkled throughout the session:

She knows that Glup killed Quibly

She wanted something from Kalakus before killing him

She was pushing back the weird psionic powers back. They evoked Glup's visage when he cast Warhead Ascension.

"The scorn ascends."

Very clearly even if we don't know how much exact control she had in this stage, she brought about loss in all the crew.

^ To the above point, Pyke and Ziggy were FEELING her anger, sadness, and loss with her first attacks

SHE RECOGNIZED/ LOOKED WITH CONFUSION AT GALLUS?

She mentions he has her. And that they want century 2112 (which we've only heard century 2112 from Glup before)

"Physically her body has been stabilized. What's happening in her mind is beyond any concept of medicine you've ever seen or heard of."

I am insane about this all.

Oh Portia was such a highlight- such THREAT. And the way her grief is so destructive to herself and others and JUST. CHEF KISS. Anthem is so good. I was not dissapointed. I am just in such deep agony because we met her in angry tears, we met her blaming and thrashing at the world. And oh her husband is GONE. And she's so fucked up given that last note. What the fuck happened to her.

[littlebirdssinging]

Same spoilers as above

Congrats on the canon Portia! Big win for silly mushroom guys fans everywhere who cheered!

What Portia said was so interesting to me, especially because the way that the jozza pirates talked about her it seems like she was in charge of some sort of group putting out bounties on people/the threat, but it doesn't seem like century 2112 is her plan, and she is trying to warn them about someone else. She definitely has initiative and is acting in vengeance for Quibly's death as well, but there seems to be factors beyond her control here.

With the whole thing about Gallus, it seemed to me like she was trying to summon the most painful loss/difficult thing for each person, so I interpreted her dismissing him as a sort of 'oh, you weren't who I was looking for, I need something worse to mess with him' type deal. Obviously I don't know the actual mechanics or how it actually works, but I imagine the spell summons the greatest loss in that person's life, but when she looked into Pyke's brain she saw that Cain would be much more effective to attack him specifically.

SPOILERS FOR SEASON 2 EPS 3+4 OF STARDUST RHAPSODY ANTHEM

Holy FUCK. so much happened. Soo many character moments! So many character development!

But the dynamics of the found family has grown stronger.

But seriously tho, the whole two episodes were incredible. This has become my favourite duo of episodes in SDR:A.

Deep dive mainly about the final moments of the fight below:

I said previously I wanted to know how Rett / Pyke react if the other went down fully (death saves etc).. I DIDNT MEAN IT LITERALLY.

But my god that was cinematic.. especially since we know what Cain looks like, which makes the whole thing more terrifying. .But the ACTING FROM ANDY + RITCHIE AS WELL AS FROM THE OTHERS, I was IN TEARS..

The fact that the phoenix passive didn't go off after that, but I have a feeling that Andy didn't want it to go off due to the literal fear of Pyke over Cain or something else happened.

The panic attack from Pyke, we have seen a panic attack over Cain before but not like that. Him reaching for people when Rett healed him. Pyke reaching for Rett, reaching for Pixel.

Pixel not letting go of Pyke, and calming him down as well giving him a rest. Rett sprinting towards his fallen partner and literally panicking.

The fact how the group panicked over Pyke being literally rattled and panicking. Pyke is literally and always has been running from Cain. I have a feeling his passive of the phoenix rising links back to Cain, and only Cain can kill Pyke / bypass it.

I guarantee we will get a moment like in the trailer, that Pyke will need to overcome his own fear, that it's him that can make that change. Yes he has the backing of his closest family and friends but he needs to overcome that fear of dying/falling himself. That Cain is just like the Viceroy, and just a bounty/just a mark.

Just sat up taller and got the biggest grin and my brother asked what happened I remembered that SDR is TOMORROW I'm so hyped guys

I don't know how to quite explain this but Hazel from Uproot-o-rama and how she talks to/treats Bumble is some of the most disability positive representation I've seen and is genuinely helping me with how I treat my disability

[littlebirdssinging]

Btw this can be intrusive thoughts this can be compulsions this can be pain this can be joint issues this can be heart issues this can even be your stubbed toe. Be kind to your Bumble and work with him and guide him gently towards healthy things to consume and accommodate his needs

[cherishablematerial-deactivated]

[mediummarketpaperback]

[cherishablematerial-deactivated]

[cherishablematerial-deactivated]

[cogentranting]

The face of a man whose father nicknamed him Plorn.

[elodieunderglass]

Born without a groove 😔

[linguisticparadox]

[telomeke]

With each addition to this, I find myself nodding and murmuring, "Mm hm. The Plorn Dickens."

‌

[soldhissoulforrocknroll]

Woe betides the grooveless Plorn

Ambitions lacking, face forlorn

His father's industry and wit?

He never got a lick of it

A childhood spent in anxious gloom

And sent away to certain doom

No wonder all the people say

"Hurts like the Dickens" here today

"God bless us, bless us, every one

"Except for Plorn, my grooveless son

"No spot of extra gruel for him

"I'd give him to the Jacobins"

The old man's love or high esteem

Could only happen in a dream

Imagine such a father's scorn

To so disdain his grooveless Plorn
