I know I’m literally six years late, but I just found a podcast from 2019 that has a Joshua Ilon cameo in the final episode where he literally just comes in and makes Juno Steel jokes for ten minutes then leaves.

Literally made my day. It was like finding an extra little Juno Steel Easter egg in the least expected place.

Something something rose-colored glasses something

This blog won't be updating on the Juno Steel audiobook (at least for now), looking at the trigger warnings on the first chapter I don't think it's something I'd enjoy. All of you who do join the lady detective on his newest/oldest adventure keep yourself safe and have fun 🥰

I have such a deep love for Juno and Peters relationship and I wanted to see it in the finale, so I've written my contribution to what could happen after Juno opens the door.

now that the penumbra podcast is over can someone please write a fic where Nureyev considers everything he filed for later consideration

[half-way-across-the-galaxy]

You're telling me the same Juno Steel who said: I'd sleep in the back of a car for months, get myself thrown into jail multiple times, risk my life on countless occasions, and stun, rob, and trick, anyone who gets in my way just to smell his perfume one more time; ends this podcast saying "I was at peace living without him in my city because I found self fulfillment 🥰"

[half-way-across-the-galaxy]

I can't believe we spent two whole seasons searching for Peter Nureyev and we don't get to hear him in the last episode. Say what you will about the rest of the episode but that's heart breaking.

Finale Spoilers under the cut

This entire season feels like such a waste of time now. I never thought the ending would be perfect but I didn't think it would not even HAVE NUREYEV IN IT!

And to have him knock on his door???? To not even hear his voice???? No kiss????

Why does this just feel like a giant middle finger to all the Jupeter shippers? It felt like this whole episode was just: by the way romance has no purpose, despite it being the core motivating factor for the last fourty episodes. Love you bye!

I have so many opinions

Season Finale Spoilers under the cut

That was so remarkably upsetting. Obviously a lot of care was put into it but to be that oblivious to what your audience wants after so many years is beyond me. We don't even get to hear his voice?

After all that?

What the hell

Predictions for the final finale of Juno Steel

1. There will be another time skip

2. Juno talks about visiting some of the other Aurinko's

3. Long monologue about hating and loving Hyperion city

4. The case with the tickets isn't actually important, it's just to show Juno back on the job

5. Jupeter reunion kiss

What predictions do you guys have?

The Ruby7 CRYING over leaving Juno?!?! I was not MENTALLY PREPARED PENUMBRA

[half-way-across-the-galaxy]

I was so upset about the idea of Juno returning to Hyperion city earlier this season, and potentially regressing. But they're doing such a beautiful job of showing that Juno is a changed lady, I just want to see him with all the happiness he deserves after everything he's done for everyone else. 😭😭😭

[half-way-across-the-galaxy]

I'm so in love with the conversation Juno and Nureyev had on the beach- Nureyev's fear of Juno rejecting him, then being reassured immediately by Juno saying "I love you so much that I followed you, and I love you so much that I'll let you go."

In a season that was all about the potential for eternal life Juno really said: we don't have all the time in the world, but I'm willing to give every bit of time I do have to loving you the right way.

Nureyev apologizing for asking Juno to leave his home in season one just SKYROCKETED to one of my favorite penumbra moments ever and I didn't even know I wanted it. It felt like the ultimate 'im sorry, I forgive you' for everything they've done to each other.

[half-way-across-the-galaxy]

I'm fine.
