THE FUCKING NEMESIS ALERT!!??? ‼️😭😭😭 IM DYING

[sorllyne]

i absolutely loved the last stand exam experience but i will die on the hill that the athletics question should have been to successfully jump on a table

[sorllyne]

in my mind the height order is shortest - lowest

riz

kristen

fabian

fig

adaine

gorgug

so fucked that fabian is tall. my man is not allowed to be 6'1 in freshman year. every time i remember hes tall its like a punch to the face. how. how is he not just so short.

[sorllyne]

oh but when i say fabian dating buddy would bring the narrative of kristen and fabian being in love with each other's nemeses full circle none of you can hear me all of a sudden? fabian, who was already patient and kind when kristen decided to move away from the parts of her religion that made her hate herself, and buddy dawn who doesn't understand yet that his party are using him because they just need a cleric with attachements to the sun? fabian who needs someone to make him feel less alone without babying him and buddy who needs someone to hold his hand while he waits out the night? y'all are missing out.

also, dawncaster? seadawn? dawnsea? magical.

Also you guys? Thinking over the episode? The whole bit of Riz reacting to Kristan being kicked out? So Good.

“You’re getting closer to what you’ll look like as adults, and in this moment, a vein on the side of Riz’s face, that will be there for the rest of his life, pops”

“Yeah actually” and Murph putting his hand out to take a stress token from Brennen

“There’s no grounds” -> “we’re hemorrhaging money on the grounds keeper Jawbone!”

ok but i keep getting stuck on the idea of people abandoning the “chosen one” thing. Cause like,,, for her WHOLE LIFE she was told she was special, and different, and important. But as soon as she started having questions, DOUBTING! Everyone was “okie! Bye bye! Ur not important anymore. U don’t agree with us, u don’t like the way we do things, u don’t matter anymore.”

And i get it. I get that impulse to dismiss that prospect. Because her identity as the chosen one (as far as we’ve been shown) was tied to her relationship with her faith, with Helio. So of course, if she doesn’t follow Helio she can’t be chosen. After all, she was Helio’s chosen one.

But thats just an assumption. We have no idea how “chosen ones” come about. We don’t know the requirements, if any. If it’s random, pre-assigned, fated, what have u. All we know is that Kristen was chosen.

So i just think it would be so fitting if, after aalllll that speculation and dismissiveness Kristen was chosen for a sun god.

Ankarna.

she legit MET her god and was like “Nah, fuck this guy. Imma do my Own shit.”

Kristen Applebees, former chosen of Helio, cleric of the unknown, and resurrector of two goddesses.

ULTIMATE ACT OF JUSTICE

ULTIMATE ACT OF CLERICAL PROWESS

ULTIMATE CHOSEN ONE

AND WOULDNT IT BE FUNNY IF THE CHOSEN ONE HELIO/SOL TURNS OUT TO BE THEIR DOWNFALL??? I JUST THINK THAT WOULD BE FUNNY

something something Kristen Applebees being the chosen one of Helio, son of Sol something something Ankarna's uncorrupted domain being the Sun and Justice something something something something Kristen being a part of the group of heroes to "bring back the day" from the Night Yorb something something something something something Kristen bringing back Ankarna to her original domain being the ultimate act of Justice AND Destiny

ok but like just saying,, if the Bad Kids do end up uncorrupting (is that a word?) Ankarna, Kristen will have played a crucial role in the development/rise of a goddess of the sun.

she was raised her whole life to believe she was "chosen" by divinity for some purpose or reason (which was never clear) and when she changed her faith i think everyone was a lil quick to dismiss that.

all this to say,,

Kristen IS the chosen one of a sun god, just not Helio/Sol

[sorllyne]

saw a post by @/cariocake saying smth along the lines of "i hope Bucky's adventuring party is patient with him"

and like!! fuckin please,,,

i hope Bucky's party sees him for the kid he really is

devout (ish?) follower of Helio, yes. crossing a line with the whole "conversion" talk, definitely.

but up to his neck in a religion cult that prioritizes lofty ideals over the individual, religious trauma he's yet to unpack, and experiencing a community completely different from the one he grew up with for the very first time (and supposedly "straying" according to one buddy dawn)

I hope they can see Bucky as the Bad Kids saw Kristen in freshman year. Fucked up, annoying, but with a good heart. And I hope that his party members help him overcome the parts of his childhood that he may discover he doesn't like. You can't pick your family, but you can pick your friends.

something so… lovely? heartbreaking? about lucy, someone who was dead from the beginning, well and truly doomed by the narrative, being set free by the patron saint of doubt.

there’s a quote that goes something along the lines of “in a tragedy, there is no room for doubt and everyone’s destiny is known” and that’s what lucy is: a tragedy. a kind, awkward girl who never got to grow up and without kristen she would have always been that

a tragedy

a mystery

but doubt walks in. doubt changes the narrative.

I had this thought briefly while falling asleep, absolutely not a viable theory. But like, If Kipper Lily is literally only taking the honey to treat her anger issues I'll fucking laugh. I'm imagining it as a like, lie to yourself how zen you are and needing more of it the next year because the BK are pissing you off more than usual. Just a little honey in your tea to chill the fuck out because you really hate that little goblin.

[sorllyne]

the scene between kristen and her parents plagues me.

can you imagine? meeting your parents for the first time in two years, just to go "im alive, you're alive too, just wanted to check up on you" and to be met yet again with that judgemental stare? i can't stop thinking about them belittling her favourite teacher infront of her without even offering single word of condolences when they found out she passed, about how her father said "helio wouldn't have let that happen" not knowing helio allowed kristen to die two times without intervention. thinking about how they belittled her relationship with tracker too, calling her saviour and the love of her life "that friend or roommate of yours" saying that if tracker choose helio over galicaea helio would have healed her of lycanthropy? which is absolute bullshit because we know tracker used to be heliolic before her parents kicked her out for having questions and doubts. thinking about how YET AGAIN they belittled her life choices, reminding her of how she walked out on being helios' chosen one, telling her that perhaps its not too late, trying to convince her that she's meant to be the chosen one because she brought the sun back after months of darkness, completely unaware of the sacrifices she and her friends made to make that happen. thinking about how the only happiness they showed that entire dinner was when kristen showed interest in going to church with them again, thats the only time they smiled or showed any tenderness in their hearts for her.

Thinking about how they never loved her, they loved kristen applebees, cleric and chosen of helio, not kristen, their daugher. they loved the version of her that exists in their minds, not her.

Kipperlilly Copperkettle's problem is that she wants so badly to attend a school and the Aguefort Adventuring Academy just isn't one

[sorllyne]

It’s so funny that Jace and Porter were introduced together freshman year, Fig immediately clocks Porter as enemy number one for three years, only for Jace to be the bad guy.

Brennan fully wanted to mess with Emily for hating Porter so much

[sorllyne]

Fig rocks so hard it's literally a religious experience
