The series makes it a point that marcille can quickly pick up ANY type of magic. As long as she has some basic instructions, she can p much cast any type of spell! She learned combat magic basically overnight! All this to say, she had her pick of study topics in school... and she landed on the evil danger magic thats banned in 70 countries. She had all the fields of magic available to her and she actively wanted her phd to be about the blood magic she has to practice in secret in a dark basement. I love her
I can always count on the Ladz to cure my art block I love these guys so very much
I did a little bit of research (not as much as I normally would do but I knew I'd have to fudge it either way) on what an English ship hand would be wearing in the late 1700s. Ended up basing it on some old paintings I was able to find, a couple historical fashion blogs, and the drawings of Billy and Liam, and I ended up with this! The main thing I needed to know was whether or not it would be weird for Zach to be wearing a waistcoat, because with what Liam is wearing that seemed like it might be out of place to me. As it turns out, run of the mill boat workers like Zach and Liam didn't have much of a uniform, so while a waistcoat might be inadvisable in the heat, it wouldn't register as strange. The more you know!
The following scene with Adrian yelling at him about it solidified these two as having one of my favourite dynamics between the main cast. The whole energy of that scene is fantastic. "Excuse the fuck out of me? Excuse the fuck out of you!!!"
Boys, boys, you're both all sorts of fucked up; can we leave the ghost ship now?
Anyways. This scene and the following scenes haunt me. What do you mean Zach was tortured for hours and then he forced himself to just keep walking. What do you mean he'd rather suffer the worst of what the hunters could do to him if it meant his friends remained unharmed. What do you mean he didn't expect anyone to care all that much since it served their purposes in the end. What do you mean Adrian is completely unwilling to accept that because as far as he's concerned the other Ladz are fundamentally more important than himself and he'd rather die than let any of them feel the way he does. They make me sick in the head.
They're both very aware that they have bad track records of valuing their own safety (tbh the only one who doesn't have that problem post Arc 3 is Daniel but I digress) but they also have really bad self esteem, so they keep telling each other to "LOVE YOURSELF DAMMIT!!" but then both of them keep responding "NO YOU!!!!"

In the interest of full disclosure, since I outlined my shifting opinion on Jax and Caine throughout the series, I think I should mention that I had no insulation against these reveals that are cultivating anger at Kinger.
Now, I didn’t dislike Kinger in the episodes before 7. Not remotely. I just was also not enamored with him like everybody else was.
Bizarrely, and hyper-ironically, my slight issue with him before that has been corrected now, but it has wound up being an immense over-correction. What am I talking about? Well.
Why Kinger’s writing //so far// isn't as good as another mentor figure’s. Now, before we get into this, the point of this post isn't that K
