can you imagine posting a picture online and within a day a masterpiece like this is created? like how does one cope with having that level of power to inspire? personally I'd descend into chaos but at least I'd have pretty drawings to look at

*ancient nord architects meeting about design plans*

lead architect: "okay, so the higher ups say the client has very important stuff to store in this chamber. we need a security system."

underling: "a trip wire?"

lead: "interesting...what will it do?"

underling: "shoot poisoned arrows."

lead: "that could work. will these arrows be guaranteed to hit the target?"

underling: "no sir they will never hit the target."

lead: *chugs mead* "excellent. any other ideas?"

underling: "so glad you asked. swinging axes."

lead: "and let me guess- they'll have several feet of space between them, right?"

underling: "of course sir."

lead: "you're so much better than that guy who came up with the impenetrable stone doors can only be opened with a unique claw key."

underling: "you flatter me sir. now get this- spiky balls."

lead: *snorts moon sugar* "say more right now."

underling: "they're designed to flop down from the ceiling and lightly bump into each other a few feet in front of the intruder."

lead: "I'm promoting you."

I love the outlander tv series but the books will always have my heart bc how else would I know that canonically lord john has a little dachshund that was gifted to him by a hessian soldier who railed him on the floor during a business meeting?

outlander book fans I require your conversation on a topic (minor spoilers)

1. (tw jack randall) okay so we all know what jack randall did to jamie, but only people who have read the books, specifically lord john's series, know that john was sa'd by one of his higher-ups at culloden. I mean randall was there and we know that he's a p3do so are we supposed to suspect that jamie and john share that experience? *edit: I don't think it matches randall's mo, but it definitely is an interesting parallel to jamie's story

2. this is just another tangential thing, but in the episode "providence" in s4 when john tells brianna he knows what she is going through and she interjects "no you don't" it makes me want to scream. bc anyone who has read john's books knows that he sincerely does and anyone who hasn't prolly saw that and was like "yeah tell him girly"

3. anyone who hasn't read lord john's books doesn't know *why* he's at ardsmuir in the first place and that blows my mind bc jamie's comment about "whatever you did to get sent here I hope you deserved it" hits so different

4. percy. I won't say anything more than that before S7-2 wraps but just...percy

so yeah idk I think lord john is by far the most in-depth character in the series and starz did him dirty by not making the spinoff about him
