I think Henry is going to die in the finale.

I've been working myself up to accepting that theory, because I'm thinking it might happen too :(

Did you watch Reign tonight? If so, what did you think?

I saw it earlier today but I think I'm going to need to watch it again to process everything. General thoughts are that I really enjoyed it, but the Kennash stuff wasn't as great as I was hoping it'd be, which was disappointing, but the Frary angst is digging my grave and I'm loving it LOL.

Your last post about Kennash has made my day. I still don't see any lingering between them but I am so happy for Bash and I hope he has a happy life cause he deserves it. And for Francis to have his brother back!!

You don't see anything lingering between Mary and Bash, you mean? I don't either, but I guess that depends on what McCarthy meant. Let Mash be in the past, pleeeease.

I just read someone said Mary grew up as a character with Bash and regressed with Francis...I mean, wtf? I love Bash but I seriously don't see the longing, passion and mutual love mash shippers do. And some of them talk so much bs about Francis and twist everything he says or does, and he is always the villain. I love both characters but I don't get mash at all, I don't even know if we are watching the same show.

I guess we shippers do tend to see what we want to see, but there are definitely moments where you have to step back and realize that what you’re saying may not make sense lol. I never saw Mary and Bash as a legit couple. Ever. TBH, it felt very forced to me. Like, I remember wanting to gag during the episodes when Francis was gone, where we were suppose to believe that Mary was “falling for” Bash. Like when Bash set up the festival for the princes and Mary was all *heart eyes* over it. I just had to laugh. Or that hold longing gazes at this brand new Pagan baby thing. It was really contrived, imo. So I’m not really sure what that person meant by saying that Mary grew as a character with Bash, because I could hardly their arc seriously.

What did you think of the last episode of Reign and who do you think is going to die?

I really enjoyed it, despite all the Frary angst. Francis got so much hate with this episode, especially over locking Mary in the tower but had he not, Mary definitely would have been killed. I saw someone else say that this is the first time on the show that Mary actually acted like the teenager she is supposed to be and I agree with that. 

Also loved the Kennash kiss! So looking forward to more of those two :)

I understand your dislike for Gale but how can you like Francis?He is a mysoginistic asshole worse than Gale

I will simply quote Bash (to Francis) to answer this question: "Killing isn’t supposed to be easy. If your hands weren’t shaking, you’d be him."

Hi! I know that you watch Reign and I was wondering what your thoughts were on the latest development with BashxKenna? What do you think of them together?

Hey!

Sorry I took so long to answer this. Last night was a bit crazy and this sort of got lost in the shuffle. Anyway, I really like Bash and Kenna together. It's awkward and rough for them right now but I can see the beginnings of something that could get very, very interesting.

I have a question about Reign. What is the meaning of the blank paper Catherine gave Mary? I still don't understant how it helped Mary decide.

My understanding of that scene was that it truly gave Mary a choice. Mary even said something along the lines of "She [Catherine] let me choose."

If that paper Catherine gave her had actually stated that Bash was going to be legitimized, Mary would have taken it to mean that she should marry Bash. But by getting the blank paper, it was clear that the choice was all Mary's and in the end she chose Francis because that's who she truly wanted to be with, all politics aside.
