#the rom

I fucking love museums. History specifically, but all kinds. I used to go to a dnd camp at the Royal Ontario Museum, every Saturday we'd go to a different exhibit and get a lecture about it and a chance to look around before going into the bowels of the museum to play dnd for a few hours. Learned a lot of ghost stories about the R.O.M., the classic ones that any guide will mention (there's paining of a lady in a red dress, obviously she killed a security guard) but also some other weirder ones. The top floor was always my favourite, particularly because it had the most ghost stories, but also because it had the armour and weapons exhibits, as well as recreations of Victorian era rooms.

The tension peaked this episode....so angsty so heartbreaking even.

Like damn....their hands have been having their own drama the whole time. Can't wait to see them holding hands comfortably soon.

They way they both have to take steps for this to work. I love this show so much.

Has shading your crush while they sleep been this romantic before????

He looked so miserable because she was distancing herself. Like he really needed this distancing for whatever happened next to happen.

The reason they didn't need to say anything else because they were saying everything in their silent glances the last few days.

This vessel depicting the court of Xibalba was, until recently, sitting right in my own proverbial backyard: The Royal Ontario Museum! Belonging to the Maya culture, the vessel is ceramic, and was crafted sometime between 600 and 900 AD.

Xibalba, roughly translated as “place of fear” is the name of the Maya underworld which is ruled by a court of death Gods and maintained by a contingent of helpers. Several real-world cave systems in Guatemala have been said to be the entrances to Xibalba, and in Maya culture the Milky Way itself is sometimes called “the Road to Xibalba.” Mainly conceptualized to be a large city, Xibalba had districts which included a council palace of the Twelve Lords of Xibalba, a ballcourt, houses full of hungry jaguars and bats, and a practically unending slough of tests, trials, and traps for everyone who entered the city. Even the roads were filled with obstacles such as scorpion rives, blood rivers, and pus-filled rivers. When a visitor finally made it to the council palace, all of the Gods had dozens of hyper-realistic mannequins resembling themselves seated nearby to confuse people and humiliate them if they greeted the dummy figure, instead of the real God.

The Xibalban Gods were outwitted in the end, however, as a pair of Hero Twins tricked the Gods into accepting counterfeit human sacrifices, and eventually lesser tributes overall.
