it’s not a coincidence that lissa’s spirit skills grow substantially once rose comes back. for one thing, she’s motivated to learn things like charming objects for rose’s sake, which gives her the push she needs. but if that were the only factor, she’d have learned to walk dreams when rose left.

i think her rapid improvement is largely because, once she starts to take back responsibility for her safety and well-being and starts to detangle herself from her codependency with rose, she is empowered in her own right. since spirit is all about giving parts of yourself, it makes perfect sense that when she treats rose like a friend again, and not a crutch or a shield, her spirit truly starts to blossom.

what’s your opinion on romitri?

One of those indisputable OTPs.

They just fit together so well I've never even considered anything else. With re-read I'm not opposed to Dragoway, but not as main but kind of homoerotic, not entirely discontinued not-exactly-friendship. What would fandom call wife-of-my-wife situation.

I've never took Adrian seriously, since he's obviously what Czech calls "ferryman"- the relationship that's supposed to help you get over past (crush on Dimitri) to new beginnings (seriously pursuing that relationship)-, and I don't value procreation too highly, so the Tasha dilemma Dimka was supposed to face wasn't something I'd lose my sleep over.

Vampire Academy Book 1 by Richelle Meade

Illustration of the accident before the series:

Excerpt from Chapter 1:

I felt her fear before I heard her screams.

Her nightmare pulsed into me, shaking me out of my own dream, which had something to do with a beach and some hot guy rubbing suntan oil on me. Images -- hers, not mine -- tumbled through my mind: fire and blood, the smell of smoke, the twisted metal of a car. The pictures wrapped around me, suffocating me, until some rational part of my brain reminded me that this wasn't my dream.

Excerpt from Chapter 22:

"Not that hurt?" he laughed. "I'm not talking about her ankle, which was still impressive. I'm talking about the car accident. Because you're right, you know. Rose didn't get 'that hurt.' She died."

He let the words sink in.

"That's... no. She lived," Lissa finally managed.

"No. Well, yes, she did. But I read the reports. There was no way she should have survived - especially with so many injuries. You healed her. You brought her back."
