zoë robins ACTED in that scene with moghedien. i'm generally a fan of how she manages to convey the layers of nynaeve through expression and this was a huge showing of that, i feel. she was taken over completely by the compulsion at first but when it starts to crack and she's beginning to break through, the combination of her smile and the slowly dawning horror in her eyes is just so delicious.

dustin "if you die, i die" henderson and mike [jumps off a cliff to save dustin] wheeler and el "they cannot save you, jane."

when padmé jumps to sit astride a hard-carapace beast from a few feet up on geonosis... i know that hurt like hell

you can see the moment in which victoria switches from, "oh, this older white person is having a moment of being behind the times, lemme correct her real quick," to, "oh no, this is, like... Bad bad." when she interacts with monica peters and i think that's the first time we see victoria be confronted with racism & ageism towards herself - although it certainly must have happened to her a lot before - and the fact that she still gives the benefit of the doubt to this degree is really fascinating to me.

once again i really feel like, lucas sinclair is, ironically, the only one who's ever understood that there needs to be a balance between protecting el and letting her take her own risks. other characters - entirely understandably in most cases - either overrely on her powers or want her to suppress and stop altogether. lucas repeatedly states that she'll do her thing but they can and SHOULD help.
