"I was taught not to [sound like a prostitute]..." "Could you teach me THAT?" "Um," I said. Malkar's pedagogical methods had not been ones that I would want to use. And the learning process had been very slow, although possibly Corbie would not be as stupid a student as I had been.

- Corambis by Sarah Monette

What is it about these boys that makes all their teachers try to drum into their heads that they're stupid?

(It's because they're wicked scary smart and their teachers are looking for some means of control. It's just bizarre that it worked on Felix, who otherwise has such a high opinion of himself.)

#Nimblermortal liveblogs #Corambis #doctrine of labyrinths #I mean. Felix has a high opinion of himself in many ways. not so much of his emotional resilience; sanity; or value as a person #but his ability as a mage? VERY high opinion. and Malkar taught him that also #Malkar could not disguise from him that he is a very bright wizard indeed

Beloved! Beloathed!

“I really think if he’d thought he could get me to go along with it, he would’ve challenged me to a duel. But I ain’t a gentleman, and duels are just fancy knife fights and just as fucking stupid.”

Thanks to @jamyesterday I am plotting Doctrine of Labyrinths next-gen fic. It’s a romcom, and Felix, Mildmay, Kay et al. are completely unprepared to deal with this. Where is the trauma? The threat of the world ending? There is not even one magical device that might break the world!

Also, Felix is about...fifty? It’s been twenty years. He has dealt with more trauma! Mildmay has several happy relationships!

This in no way qualifies them as mentors to the next gen but damn it they’re trying.

I finally read Corambis which I've been procrastinating on for a year cause The Mirador depressed the hell out of me, and it was so good and I adore Kay and why did no one tell me it was all about love and healing??

Corambis Liveblog Master Post

I have Thursday off work and the house to myself, so I have decided to spend the day taking a bubble bath and reading the final book in the Doctrine of Labyrinths series, Corambis, for the first time.

I’m going to liveblog it! All my posts are going to be reblogs of this one with added comments, in order not to overwhelm the tag. You can see them in order here.

Doctrine of Labyrinths is a really good series, but it deals with some dark themes. I’m going to put a list of warnings that have been depicted/referenced in the books so far under the cut, and will tag each post with appropriate warnings as well as "tehhumi liveblogs dol”.
