BRENNAN LEE MULLIGAN OWES ME AN APOLOGY LETTER

[justallihere]

SHES BACKKKKK!!!!!!!! Welcome back bestie!!!!

Let start off by saying, the first line was just Xaden being so down bad. I will fold every single time i read the line "his wife" bc I too love your wife

Xaden wasn’t sure how he was supposed to stop touching his wife long enough to let her out of their bed. 

at this rate, everything is going to remind him of Violet 💀 and I love that he's obsessed

Brennan huffed, and he sounded just like Violet as he did it. “Let me see.” 

Same Sloane, same

He heard Sloane say, as he left, “Who was that and what did you do with Xaden Riorson?” 

Even though we only had a glimpse of Mira and Drake, I was foaming at the mouth for the scraps we got. Drake was so funny in this. He's a lethal dude but doesn't act like it until necessary. Mira is trying to pretend he doesn't exist 💀

Love the detail that Mira and Vi wore gowns that weren't black!!!! I love black too but damn, they probably looked amazing

Sgayel is so funny and i love her so much

“You’re useless,” Sgaeyl snapped “I will incinerate anyone who dares to look at her wrong,” Sgaeyl said to Xaden

Tairn being the bad bitch that he is, swooping in to lift Violet. They way he GENTLY placed her down. That's a girl dad right there

Xaden is scary but Violet is terrifying and I love her for that. Scary, powerful violent women are my weakness. Vi is probably the only person X will yield too

Xaden.” That voice was softer, familiar, the only voice that had ever truly cut through his tumultuous thoughts and anger

Questions:

Were you intentional with Xaden's injury?(i remember there's a scene were Sgayel was joking that Xaden could survive being a rider without his arm)

I want to give you all the flowers in the world Miss Ali 🖤🖤🖤🖤

I'm back!!! Thank you!!

I told you guys Xaden's whipped and they're insufferable 😭 there's some more bits of Mira and Drake in the next chapter!! I love them!! Drake is so tired, he knows Tecarus is an idiot, and until he's needed he's going to mind his business and have a drink.

Sgaeyl's like boy if you'd DO YOUR JOB you wouldn't need me?? You DON'T need me?? Get it together.

Tairn is the baddest bitch in this place and he deserves all his flowers.

Xaden is big and scary but Violet is little and scary and she's much more terrifying because no one expects it from her. That's my girl 😌

Yes, Xaden's injury was a nod back to that and a reference to him almost losing his arm in canon to the gryphon attack!

Thank you 💕💕💕

All of the book owners (so far) are the fictional authors of fictional fables and stories.

Mother Goose collection has Cinderella, Master cat or Puss in Boots, the sleeping beauty in the wood, little red riding hood, the fairy (all written for Louis the XIV in the 1690’s appx… the Grimm brothers are more relevant retelling sod the stories for an 1800’s Germany

Scherezade from 1001 Arabian nights started as one thousand nights and evolved to what is is now known as titular and story content wise. Having the ebony horse, the thief and the merchant, the adventures of Sinbad the sailor, and Aladdin and the lamp.

An interesting tidbit if the most famous stories from the collection (Aladdin and the Genie, Sinbad the sailor and Ali baba and the 40 thieves) they were either independent and added in later editions or added for the French publication in the 1830’s

And Aesops fables are from Ancient Greece and contain the basis for all fairy tales and fables such as the tortoise and the hare, the boy who cried wolf, the lion and the mouse, and others.

All of these story tellers also share things in common, all of them are either historically (Aesop) or designed to be (Mother Goose and Scherezade) people who are not wealthy, do not hold a position of power but wants to help the future.

Aesop was a Greek Slave who wanted to document the oral stories being told amongst the common folk and to also make commentary on the politics happening as well. With the commentary being seen as moral lessons for the children to grow and learn with.

Scherezade is the extremely learnéd daughter of the Vizier who agreed to me the next bride for the king to stop him from killing all the virgin wives he had. She constantly gets him to postpone her execution with the fables and changes his mind so he doesn’t assume all women will cheat immediately after sleeping with him. Giving the reader an idea of what knowledge can do.

Mother Goose is supposed to be a village woman who met a goose who laid golden eggs for her and eventually spun tales for the children of the village, entertaining and imparting lessons to them.

They all have some aspect of their stories that undermines their influence on change as well. For Aesop is is his state of slavery, for Scherezade it is volunteering to try and avoid death as long as humanly possible, and for Mother Goose it is the witch connotations that came about.

All of these coincidences and similarity paints a beautiful picture of humanity and imparting knowledge to the youth reading them but to have them all be relevant? WHY BRENNAN LEE MULLIGAN! WHY?!?!?!?!?!!?! WHY ARE ALL OF THESE SIMILARITIES APPARANT?!?!!? WHAT IS THE REASON?!?!!? WHAT IS THE IMPORTANCE?!?!!?

(Hi I am a Double Major in Psychology and History currently on a national scholarship research program, I just did a research paper on how popular media in each time reflects the politics of the time, meaning I did a LOT of digging into 1001 Arabian nights in terms of Orientalism, Mother Goose fables for the return of theatre (because of pantomime and an evolving comedia del arte) and Aesop was recent boredom research. Please message with questions if present!)

Sam Reich, if you ever see this, can you please tell me-- in the 2020 episode "Jeopardy!" where you play Jeopardy-ish with Brennan, Aly and Ify, did you have the graphics on the game while you were playing, or were they added later? Did the players get to see them while they were playing? My sister and I are rewatching the episode and we both want to know.

My goal for the year was 50 books, and I have read 60-ish. I'm not really sure, to be honest. The storygraph considers manga as books, while Goodreads does not. Goodreads considers fanfictions to be actual books, while The Storygraph does not. I, however, consider both to be books, even if they are somewhat not traditional. Here's all of them:

IM SENDING IN AN ASK ABOUT ROSASTAR AND ELLALI JAVING A TALK

I have come

While the kids were away, the couples were walking towards the empty council room where they could finally catch up after all those years. Rosalyn, however had to stop and call out to Alistar whenever she saw something new to her sights. Her husband may be breaking things once in a while while having his tempers, but he still valued her happiness overall.

She knew Alistar had a good heart, but she knew it also changes. Like a restless tide, untamable. It was magical when he came into her life, but knowing his reputation as a power-hungry tyrant king, she knew that along him a storm could come too. He'd either raise her high or let her fall, drag her down as quickly as he could lift her.

But then she took his hand and promised to withstand any form of blaze, famines he would blow her way. Like she was made of stone, something solidified inside her, and she knew she'd always stay beside him. No matter his flaws, or his tempers, how stone-hearted people made him out to be, she stood by him like she had a heart of stone.

And it was not because she was scared, or naive, or weak. It was because she loved him, and she knew he loved her too.

Rosalyn looked at her husband, who seemed like he was stressing out about something. She couldn't exactly figure out why he looked like he'd been trapped inside a room he never had a choice to be on. She almost asked him if he needed anything to ease his perceptible anxious behavior, not until queen Ella had sat down with her husband.

"This room was even more different that it was." Alistar began, before pulling out a chair for his wife. Rosalyn smiled at the gesture, and sat down with her husband beside her.

Elias, in all of this, never bothered to look at the Brennans. As if he would want to speak with them. He wanted to save his time, and the oxygen he wouldn't want to waste on a viscious, violent monster.

"After my father had died, I figured we give the entire castle a different class and style. Don't you think it looks like a breath of fresh air? I was just thinking that maybe you needed some, for I know you haven't lived in it ever since.." Ella replies. "Looks less of a prison room, does it not, old friend?"

Rosalyn turned her head to Alistar, who was tense. She didn't know if he wanted to shut queen Ella up, or that he wanted to get out of the room and avoid the conversation.

"Prison room? I don't appreciate your incorrect accusations, your majesty." Alistar bit back, more leaning into easing his nerves. "You see, me and my wife, and our two beautiful children are living the best lives in our home."

Rosalyn didn't speak.

Ella acknowledged her silence. "With what you did to me and my kingdom, I'm sure there's more going on through the curtains of your dollhouse, Alistar." Ella spat back, speaking his name with such bitterness.

"Are you implying that my family are suffering in my hands, with too many words left unsaid? You think my children can't communicate with me?" Alistar flared up at the subtle mention of his family she deemed toxic.

Rosalyn swallowed, and she felt her hands shaking. Taking a deep breath, she tried keeping her calm facade. But she knew, that queen Ella had made her way to cut deep into her heart of stone in a matter of a short time.

"I never said anything about suffering and lack of communication.. are you speaking for your actions?" Ella taunted, keeping her regal composure. "Because me, personally.. I'm spealing from experience."

"Don't think you intimidated me, your majesty. You shouldn't bark that much unless you know how to bite." Alistar humored her.

Now Rosalyn knew that this was going to get out of hand, experiencing Alistar's tempers.. and his threats.

"I know you too well, my friend. You know that I could hit you where it hurts if I go on any longer, now the only thing you want this chat to go down is through violence. I see you still haven't changed." Ella retorted.

Alistar let out a huff. "I haven't been violent towards Rosalyn, or my children before."

One truth, One lie.

His children? He'd never try to be violent with.

Rosalyn?

He had countless attempts.

Rosalyn's breath hitched, as she spoke. "That.. that is true. He haven't been violent to anyone. He may have his tempers, and- I have them too, but he never hurt me. He never tried to."

She knew she was lying to herself. But she loved him too much to stain his reputation a lot more. She had the choice to call him out on his shit but her heart betrayed her mind and acted on its own.

She'd just made her bed, and she was going to lay in it.

He never hurt her, but he tried to.

Ella studied her for a moment, like a parent looking at their child who has been in trouble. Her observant eyes, and skeptical look all seemed to make her nerves tense, and she gulped.

"Rosalyn?" Ella called out.

Rosalyn's head snapped towards her.

"Take care of the roses in your garden. Don't let them lose their head." Ella spoke, flashing a kind, lukewarm smile.

"What do you mean by that.." Rosalyn trailed off, unsure if she were even allowed to speak to her.

"Nothing. Just figured you have a passion for gardening as I do.." Ella shrugged, then changed the topic to an even more lighter one for Alistar to actually react and respond with without having to be trapped, hoist with his own petard.

Rosalyn knew she meant something more than that.

Elias, deep inside, wanted to ask if Rosalyn was alright.

Wait, I need to put my clown shoes on.

So.... Maddie saying "third time's the charm' about the romcom movie... Like Eddie has with Shannon, Ana, Bu-

(It definitely took Madney more than three 'times' to be together, so it's not like she was talking about herself)

And Buck saying "and it took me three times to get it right" like Abby, Ali, Taylor, Ed-

Am I crazy here? Probably.

One of the reasons why I love buddie is because of how Eddie looks whenever Buck is talking about something random (you know the look).

Because of all the trivia-knowing characters around, Buck is always listened to, always cared for by Eddie.

If I think about other characters like him - Sheldon Cooper, Spencer Reid, Temperance Brennan, just to cite a few - they’re mocked all the time for knowing stuff, even by their significant others.

But then you have Buck, talking about natural disasters, about the animals at the LA zoo, with Eddie right there looking at him fondly. And also picking up some trivia to talk about on his own.

This is love.

Let's make one thing very clear: just because it's two male characters being together, doesn't mean it's the same couple in different universes.

HENRY AND ALEX IS NOT THE SAME AS PATROCLUS AND ACHILLES, FOR GOD'S SAKE.

Il mio post numero 1 del 2022

The most emotional part about the Harry Potter reunion was Jason Isaacs and Tom Felton talking about Helen McCrory and. Tom saying how he looked up to her was really touching.

And also Jason saying that Draco is his hero.

I just… I just love them.

The happiest part was the one about Gary and Dan. Gary would have played Sirius for 15 years, I’m sure of it.
