hi!!! what's ur top three favorite scenes in the magicians and top three favorite relationships? (you can add ur least favorite scenes too if you wanna 👀)
okay i've literally been thinkin about this all day, and its hard to just have top three because i love literally 90% of the show but here we go
1) "Will You Play With Me?" (3x13) and i know this one is a very, very, bittersweet scene but it just means so much to me, but where Julia finds herself in the castle at the end of the world after Iris tries to make her forget everyone, and after Alice's dumb move, but before she gives up her power for the sake of magic, she crouches down and says to Quentin "I want you to know, it's your bravery... made me see." and a clueless Quentin says "See what?" and with the slightest smile she just goes "What I need to do." and Quentin shakes his head slightly as he tries to piece it all together and watched her shift and steady herself, Kady asks Julia "What are you doing?" and Julia, with the look of having already made up her mind, tells Kady "What Prometheus did." and Eliot goes "Whore-crotching" in the most astounded voice, Josh immediately correcting him with an also somewhat astounded voice "Horcruxing." and as Julia is about to start Quentin immediately asks "Look, Jules, are you sure?" only to be shushed by Julia, and Penny 23 goes "Julia, you could lose your power." and she just ignores him as she goes through with making the keys as they all watch concerned and with gratitude for what shes doing. Like i said this scene just means so much to me because Julia is willing to sacrifice everything for her life long best friend and those he met, the people who once hated her and who she also once hated.
2) "All That Hard, Glossy Armor" (4x10) where Margo's talking to memory!/lizard!Eliot and after Eliot says "Wind and sand reduce mountains into rubble. Are you stronger than a mountain?" and Margo leans in close and very calmly, but sternly, says "I'm a king. Not a goddamn princess. A king." and Eliot softly goes "You were." and she stands firmly, just saying "I'm still a king."
3) "All That Josh" (3x09) where they sing under pressure together especially Julia's parts because she's learning and feeling her power grow inside of herself, but also because its in the same episode and i dont wanna take up anorher point for this right after that where Margo asks The Muntjac "Bowie fan?" and Eliot goes "Margo fan." because during the song The Muntjac decide that yes, she would save them.
and for least favorite scenes, literally every scene that has reynard in them. oh yeah i forgot to put the fucking bullshit ending of 4x13 in here.
for top three favorite relationships:
1) Margo & Eliot & Quentin; they all love each other so much, and honestly i'm sad that it wasnt as pronounced after they defeated the beast because their friendships and their love just the way that Margo let in Quentin almost as much as she let in Eliot, the fact that Eliot has two people who he loves so deeply despite not wanting to admit it though with Quentin its much more than just platonic, and Quentin just being able to feel as if he belongs when he's around them both, literally only one person before had made him feel a semblance of that and that brings me to my next one.
2) Julia & Quentin; they're childhood friends, and its so obvious that they both love and care for each other even when Quentin was being a dick over magic and even when Julia tried to get back at him. Even after the way they hurt each other all they wanted to do was be friends again and to make up for any and all pain they inflicted on each other, Quentin wanted to protect Julia as much as he could and Julia wanted to protect Quentin as much as she could. They were meant to be the best of friends, to protect each other, to be a beacon of hope for each other and it shows. They just have that very specific childhood best friend bond and its amazing and unique in its own way.
3) Kady & Julia; they're a dynamic duo, what can i say? When they work together shit gets done, and it gets done efficiently and almost perfectly. They look out for each other so often and they also do their best to overcome all of the hard shit. Like Kady and Julia could literally take on so much together and still come out with only needing some therapy, they've got each other's backs and are so willing to fight for each other and it just brings me joy.
and i think thats what my major thoughts are on all of these relationships. if they all seem clichè well my apologies, i just love them so much.
thank you for your ask btw !
