you CANNOT read too much old timey fiction because I was playing Raft with the lads this morning and without a THOUGHT said we could sail over to another island "if the wind would consent to blow" & let me tell you. This did not pass by unremarked.

Was obsessed with Sabriel in 5th grade and made my friend play Abhorsen with me. One person would be the undead abomination, and the other person would have to use their invisible bell bandolier to drive them off.
omg
just imagined an alternate universe where the old kingdom series went really really mainstream and you could buy cheap little bell bandoliers and skimpy key-print surcoats at lover’s lane for your necromancer bedroom roleplay

falst is so silly to me because hes like. traveling with a literal god and life incarnate and a demon and a woman made of metal who fights dragons for fun and THE LITERAL ANTICHRIST and hes just. a guy. who has cat ears. and is a little stronger and faster and more durable than your average person. also he has a cool scarf

it’s a regular day at work as a pilot. ur a little tired, just flew the prime minister back from his vacation, so you have a couple drinks, yanno, chill out, and suddenly you’re getting dragged by your ear to the prime minister AND the head of the army. and the prime minister is like SIKE im going back tomorrow, and you’re like, i hope your family is ok…?, and the prime minister is like no, theyre fine. and then hes like [scheming voice] but you should probably tell people that if they ask. and you’re like. k. what the fuck is going on. so you try to ask how many people will be coming, to feel it out, and the prime minister is like. all the heads of government. [pauses dramatically] oh! and the emperor. but incognito style. and you have to nod and scurry away like this is normal behaviour. and naturally the emperor is always right and never to be questioned, but also. what the fuck

#nine worlds #i love that we know all these things... but not how any of that works #why did he work for 1000 years on the government but is less than 60 years old? read on until page 300 something (probably) to find out #i love the way hote handles exposition ... by not having any #you get information when it's relevant for the character and not a moment sooner #also... that information is just as likely to be unreliable as not #because there is no omniscient author voice to tell you for example that 'the fall was caused by x' #the characters have explanations for what caused it... but are any of them correct? you just don't know
prev putting your tags on blast because YES its this exactly... i really love the way the nine worlds books do exposition, especially considering the massive amount of history and pre-knowledge our characters have to catch the reader up on, because i think it's a really hard balance to strike but its done so so well. you learn stuff not as the character learns them, but as they think about it, and in the same way they think about it, too (which is how kip manages to get away with playing the sensible bureaucrat for a good couple chapters of hote, despite already mentioning all his mad escapades— he doesn't think of them as mad!!) it's easy, in a big complex universe our protagonists are already acquainted with, to give too little information and confuse the reader or to go the other way and end up with lots of exposition before anything can happen (the second is better than the first, tbf, and if your protagonist [see: el higgins] is entertaining enough its certainly not an immediate con) but the nine worlds book manage to walk the line of giving us Just enough information to survive the scene and it is SO fun!! + the... if not outright unreliability, but patchiness of the information that we're getting means you get to piece together the fuller context of what's actually happening, and even more fun, what it actually Means. really good
rereading hote and oh my god it’s actually crazy how early kip just starts Saying things. how did i think he was normal here
