Something amazing was in my mailbox this week *.* ❤ ❤ Book 8 of Administration: Blood & Circuses by @mannafrancis
I can’t wait to read it... and now I am not sure if I want to re-read previous books first or just start reading it already before I will go crazy xD
@paramorin
I'm rereading Mind Fuck (because it's not like I have a fuckton of other things to do, right?) and it's so awesome to see again how incredibly fascinated and incredibly wary Toreth and Warrick are of each other at first. How intrigued they are, how much they enjoy their little games. How utterly delighted Toreth is every time he can't read Warrick or Warrick surprises him.
And this: "However, it did confirm her opinions and, to her surprise and personal distaste, Warrick's. Toreth was manipulative and dangerous, and Warrick understood him perfectly. They were ... comfortable together." That's quite possibly the best summary of why I love their relationship so much. That entire conversation is gold - Warrick being all, "yes, I know I'm sleeping with a sociopath who tortures people for a living, and no, he's not manipulating me because I know exactly what he's doing, and I choose to fuck him anyway". And the bit where he's all "sexually he's the most talented partner I've ever had, personality-wise he's not my type" - JOKE'S ON YOU, WARRICK, THE CHARMING SOCIOPATH WITH ISSUES IS YOUR FUTURE LIFE PARTNER.
And I had almost forgotten that Toreth baits their murderer into killing another person so he gets new evidence to solve the case. What a brilliant piece of shit. And Sara's little comment of "the difference between interrogators and paras was that the latter weren't quite so dead behind the eyes" after that whole paragraph about how someone in Toreth's line of work needs at least one, better two personality disorders.
Ruiz: Wasn't it weird for you to help us brainwash a gay kid back into thinking that what he was doing was immoral and awful, if you have a male partner?
Toreth, who's only ever felt sympathy in his life for 1) a panther he saw at a zoo once, 2) someone getting kicked in the balls, for about half a second before he thought it was hilarious, 3) his long-term partner he's completely obsessed with, for about five seconds: ?????????
“Not that – why are you canceling the sponsorship?”
“After due consideration, I decided to take what happened to you personally. I don't appreciate having my … having you assaulted and threatened. It annoyed me. SimTech doesn't need his money – or any money – that badly.”
Administration quote of the day. I will never get tired of Warrick's ridiculously understated ways of expressing his feelings for Toreth. Ah, yes, his boyfriend semi-domesticated panther something-like-a-partner got almost murdered. That “annoyed” him. dfkgbdfkgdf those two.
"He can work it out for himself. He's a grown man, Sara, and he's not stupid."
She tried to think of a tactful way of saying, "Yes, but emotionally he's about ten. On a good day."
Administration series quote of the day. I love Sara a lot, okay, and I love people talking about how fucked in the head Toreth is.
Also, Jesus Christ, I had somehow forgotten just how unspeakably repulsive Carnac is. I mean, I remembered that I despise him more than almost any other character I've ever run across, but I'd somehow managed to repress just how despicable he is right from the start. Props to Manna Francis for writing a book series with a literal sociopath who tortures people for a living as its protagonist and then creating an antagonist who's so viscerally repulsive and inhuman to make your skin crawl worse than Toreth does when he's literally killing someone.
Apparently I do fanart now. Here's another Warrick and Toreth.
I made a Warrick to go with Toreth.
They look better larger, but I guess I'd have to split them into multiple images? Tumblr is weird.
