i like to imagine that immediately after it fades to black on the last episode of the witcher geralt collapses where he stands from the gangrene. i just think it would be funny

i’m just gonna assume that this is what happened until the next season comes out in a coupla weeks

UNLESS U ARE TALKING ABOUT ACTUAL ARTHURIAN LEGENDS? in which case i commend you for your bravery and strength of character. and do you have any titles to recommend cause i’m interested in all of it but i have no idea how to start or if it’s like a lot of books or one book or not a book at all or anything! i don’t know. thank u for reading

OH I JSUT SAW THIS VASDJKFLHDA yeah im talking about the actual legends . AND YES of course . i thinkt he best place to start is le mort d’arthur. u can find retellings of it in modern english with a lot of the . stupid unnecessary shit cut out cus malory is a complete weirdo. from there i say just pick a knight and read as many legends as u can about them until you find another one that seems interesting and reading the major tales for them and so on and so forth.

best places to start if u just wanna learn about one knight at a time is prollyyyy

tristan - tristan and isolde (gottfrieds telling is my FAVE hes so funny)

gawain - he has a lot but gawain and the green knight i hear is really good. i have it i should just read that right now its not long

lancelot - theres SO MUCH for him... lancelot knight of the cart is supposed to be neat. the entire lancelot-graal/vulgate cycle collection is SO GOOD... if u want just a snip find a copy of lancelot and the lord of the distant isles its the book of galehaut but modernized and . galehaut is so good iw ill never forgive malory for basically cutting him from lancelots story. bitch.

u can also just start with something like Perceval or something in the grail quest line of legends!! le mort d’arthur covers it but i think the verse Perceval goes deeper into it but im gonna be real i think the grail quest is kinda boring so i havent read much of it

hi i really do have to thank you infinitely for being how i found out about the bifrost incident (last night) because Good God. nothing has ever made me feel as strongly as bifrost does, i swear it. i have been going a little crazy!!!

DUDE I’M SO GLAD I COULD GET SOMEONE INTO BIFROST.... its so fucking good im glad you like it!!!!!! and what a fucking MOOD i listened to it and immediately was consumed by So Many emotions. i still am every time i think about it

could you have a smoothie or something instead or would it be the same thing? i’ve found when i’m not thrilled about eating my brain usually doesn’t reject drinks in the same way so it’s turned into sort of a life hack for me :”3

that’s really clever actually, thank you!

i know u are probably talking about the other arthurian TV show but i’ve been into merlin the show recently so it’s really weird to see u talk about some of these guys with the same names.... like a look into a parallel universe. it’s fun!

AHHHHHHHHHHH MERLIN . im so used to the actual legends . like the fucking Books and old medieval manuscripts that watching merlin makes me so mad they ruined lancelots entire character like sure they made him so fucking sexy but theres an entire episode thats plot is him not being able to be a knight cus hes not of noble blood when its literally a huge arthurian plot point that hes the son of a king and even tho he was raised by the lady of the lake his like . bloodline plays a HUGE role in his growth like BROOOOOOOOOOO

have you read ancillary justice?

I would kill to have a functioning body right now and not a barely functioning ship that’s only half controlled by me.Yes, actually kill. Irken or fleshbag. Preferably Zim.

will the old version of spells stay up, or will the new one take its place? (i’m really looking forward to weirdward, btw!! and i’m interested to see how the rewritten spells has changed/added depth :D)

Oh, definitely! It’s not the original version of Spells anymore, since I ran it through a round of minor editing a few months back (which you can tell because it no longer suffers from the random tense switching my Ectoberweek fics had) but I’ll keep it up for organization nonetheless. The new Spells I’ll post as a separate work, mostly so I can stick it in a series with Weirdward on AO3. :’D

And I’m happy to hear you (and other people) are excited about Weirdward! I was a little worried, because reception for crossover is A Thing, but at least HP is fairly well known. And tbh I don’t think the new Spells has changed much? Mostly I guess it’s just style, and making it read more smoothly. Breaking up some of the massive paragraphs, that kinda thing.
