Tysm! Luke being champion is all Elliot’s fault, it makes perfect sense 😭

I recently read In Other Lands and I love it so much!! There is one thing I’m confused about that I’m wondering if you could help clear up— when Elliot, Age Sixteen, says to Luke “You’re ordinary? I seem to recall some sort of championship,” Luke says that that was a misunderstanding. I’ve been wracking my brain but I can’t figure out what the misunderstanding is! I know Luke considers himself more ordinary than his family because of his subdued personality and that he didn’t particularly want to win the championship (until someone asked him to and then immediately forgot about it, poor guy) but, nevertheless, he is the champion, right? So what’s the misunderstanding?

Luke meant that he thought Elliot was asking him to win, but apparently that was a misunderstanding, so the misunderstanding and being champion (which comes with attention!) is all Elliot’s fault.

Elliot would say a. I didn’t ask you to, loser, b. me asking you to do something doesn’t magically make it happen I’m not a SORCERER.

He then should add that Luke is a remarkable person and supernaturally gifted athlete who should believe in himself more but he won’t because he’ll be talking exclusively about sorcerers for several hours.

No other champion has been known in perpetua as the Sunborn Champion as a title to the outside world. Luke is appalled by this moniker and still considers it Elliot’s fault. Elliot still doesn’t know what Luke meant by misunderstanding so can’t argue with him (on this matter. He still can on many other topics).

I’m so happy you enjoyed!

do you have a tag for your Word Of God in other lands/turn of the screw meta?

I'm afraid not... It would've been a good idea, wouldn't it? Specially as I love meta, and feel inspired by reading it for my own works and for other people's books. (A lot of Long Live Evil was inspired by me reading all the Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones/Lord of the Rings meta I could find.)

Thought process behind this:

It's a shame no one—absolutely no one—grabbed Zuko by the ponytail in book 1.

The general consensus that Katara acts like a booktok boyfriend.

Katara's pose is wrong perspective wise, but she came along so beautifully I didn't have the heart to change it. My job's to make the cow walk: whether it's on legs or nipples is none of my business.
