My two cents on the S2 trailer/premiere date because the fandom keeps hyping itself up at least once a week over some imagined drop date. Jenkins is not going to release the promo this week on Kristian's insta live. The trailer is not going to premiere at the next convention in a couple weeks or any other special date picked by fandom. Jenkins has no control over when it's released. This is completely on HBO's schedule.
HBO puts out a general trailer for upcoming shows once per quarter. OFMD had like 2 seconds of old footage in the January one. The next one should be early April. I'm expecting OFMD to feature more heavily in that one and with new footage.
The cutoff for this year's Emmy eligibility is the end of May. I don't think they'll want to skip a year of eligibility. My bet is on S2 premiering sometime mid-April to early May. So I do think the trailer will come out soon-ish. But like sometime within the next month soon-ish.

Vince Zampella walked onto stage.
Geoff Keighley emphasized "Titanfall" introducing him, with a finger point at camera.
Zampella said two sentences to announce Best Direction and walked off stage.
Final worldwide premiere was Monster Hunter.

old fashioned (muddling sugar with bitters and water, adding whiskey, and garnishing with an orange slice 🍊)

The fact that Darius kept Flapjack a secret is underappreciated
It feels like a given, because Darius is working against Belos, and ratting Hunter out would undermine the lesson Darius was pushing during all of ASIAS for Hunter to make his own decisions and defy authority and be more rebellious and all.
But also. It would have made a lot of sense for Darius to do it anyway, if Darius was prioritizing the rebellion over the well-being of this kid he barely knows.
Because Hunter is Belos' right-hand man. Darius and the other rebels are actively digging for information about the Day of Unity. It would have been perfectly reasonable for Darius to assume that Hunter has some sort of insider information.
And it would have been so easy. Hunter is terrible at hiding his emotions. He is blatantly horrified when he realizes Darius knows about Flapjack.
He's basically handing Darius leverage on a silver platter. It would have been so incredibly easy for Darius to be like “I won’t tell Belos about your secret palisman if you tell me XYZ about the Day of Unity.”
It wouldn’t have even been that suspicious. Like I’m sure other witches have tried to use Hunter’s position to get a leg up on the competition before. Hunter is so clearly desperate here. It would have made sense to at least try.
And it could have been even so much worse than that. Because Hunter at this point in the show is a threat to Darius and to the people that Darius cares about. The very next episode that they’re in is Hollow Mind, which starts with Hunter trying to arrest Darius, Eberwolf, and Raine. Hunter is Darius' enemy here at least as much as Hunter is Adrian's enemy in Labyrinth Runners.
So yeah. Darius could have just straight-up ratted Hunter out to Belos. It would have made sense for him to do so. Sabotage Belos’ inner circle, undermine the Golden Guard, give Belos and Hunter something to distract them from the rebellion.
Neither of them know about Belos’ past with Flapjack specifically. In this scenario, Darius wouldn’t know he’s effectively getting Hunter killed. Hunter doesn’t know either; his fear is entirely for Flapjack I think.
But it's okay! It doesn't matter. Because Darius is, indeed, a terrible rebel. He prioritizes Hunter’s well-being instead; here and in Hollow Mind and on the DOU. We get zero evidence that he tried to get any information out of Hunter at any point. He is Soft for this child.
So in ASIAS, all that he does after acknowledging Hunter’s secret palisman is to give Hunter his cloak back and to fix the cloak and praise Hunter again and tell Hunter to git gud at sewing. Amazing.

Check out my Robinhood jasonette
It was nominated for the Maribat awards (voting ongoing)
I was actually pretty shocked if got nominated. I thought it was good but it didn't seem to get a lot of attention.
Guess you never know what speaks to people
There are plenty of other options on the awards. Read them all and vote even if it isn't for me
