“This is inspired by @ilikesallydonovan​‘s great post about Lesley...”

"why do I have to struggle when those other people (allegedly) get special treatment?" - this is so relevant at the moment. Well that's given me something to think about!

Peter comes to a similar realization earlier in the book, when Nicky appears at the Spring Court, but he responds with awe, wonder, and a little sadness (certainly as KHS reads) rather than Lesley’s anger, hostility, and that special brand of self-righteousness directed at the Other when they have something you don’t have.

Hope this one went better. Hang on in there (virtual hug if you’d like one)

Ah, I didn’t write it yet (the date is tomorrow afternoon). But thank you for the wishes!

Sympathy - hope the others are better. I’ve had exams like that but never had the nerve to walk out - just sat there hoping inspiration would strike (it never did).

Thank you uwu

It’s not that I wouldn’t have passed, it’s just that I really need a decent grade in this exam and judging from earlier exams we did in my study group we got spectacularly unlucky with the questions this time

I think ‘reproach’? It kind of appeals to the hearer’s (Person A’s) sense of guilt? I’d say it’s the most 'equal’; there’s an element of disapproval but it’s not a condescending telling-off like you’d get from a parent/superior. An 'inferior’ could reproach their 'superior’; it’s less aggressive than 'criticise’, and there’s an implication that it’s justified and the hearer knows it.

Ah yes, that thing of (justifiably) appealing to the guilt is very much what i wanted to go for, I think I’ll use reproach now :D

Also forgot - but not sure whether to watch it - should I read the book first? (It’s sitting on my computer ready…)

Hmmm... Less likely to be spoiled if you watch it first, I think, given that interest in the adaptation might mean more people discussing it/flailing about it in ear/eyeshot...

Vampire seals?

Okay. This is not what the Sea Mammal Research Unit call them. But...

For a few years now there has been a spate of seal carcasses washing up with strange corkscrew-like injuries, and it's been a bit of a mystery. Theories include that they've been dragged through a ducted propeller (like those used for positional thrusters on offshore construction vessels); or that someone has been laying traps on the seabed (that's the more out-there of the theories)... But generally, it was thought they couldn't be natural because the injuries were too weird and regular, almost surgical.

However recently new evidence has come to light that, contrary to what was thought, it's definitely possible that large bull (grey) seals have been attacking female common seals and grey seal pups - not just attacking, but eating them or killing them in a way that causes injuries like those seen on the carcasses. This behaviour has actually been observed now.

This is happening on North Sea coasts in the UK and Germany.

Not linked to food availability - there's plenty. No-one's quite sure why some of them have turned cannibal and all aggressive.

But my highly scientific theory is that they are vampire seals, and require seal blood and blubber to survive. The offshore industry has disturbed an ancient power and the seals have been infected with a curse. And it's spreading...

morwennol replied to your post: “It’s days like today that I really need some fanfic to escape into.”

I know what you mean. I'm binge-watching Miss Fisher instead. For a fanfic shot - maybe try dipping into a new fandom? Some of my favs are for movies/TV I've never even watched and would normally avoid

It's funny, I tend to be a bit all or nothing with fandom. There are plenty of things I enjoy but feel no compulsion to engage in, and I tend to be relatively serially monogamous, too! I haven't read any Discworld fic for years, but I'm probably more likely to go and revist some of the canon before I do anything else.

However, there are several seasons of Leverage as yet unwatched, and I suspect that will be quite helpful. Also, there's a rage that seems to be eating away at my writers' block so I may jump on some of my WIPs. *nods*
