The irony of Endeavor crying and saying he can’t fight his fully grown adult son, but he was completely okay with abusing them when they were children.
I can't still can't believe Rhaenyra fumbled Jason Lannister. I would've had several kids with him and ride that marriage down till he died cause , he's from like one of the top three most wealthiest houses to fucking exist.
Idk if I’m completely out to lunch here, but let’s do a bit of a thought experiment.
“That part of the shore whereon she found herself seemed as lonely and virgin as if no human foot had ever trodden it, save for a tiny, tricksy path, slender as red thread and bordered by great, green, velvety sheets of moss, that wound in and out of the big firs and scrub spruces.”
Here we see the place Emily is wandering as new, untouched. The word LMM chooses is virgin, which I think is interesting as she clearly knows how to use it a couple chapters back to mean unmarried or more explicitly, never having had sexual relations. Up to this point, Emily has maybe sort of had a crush on Teddy but won’t admit it, but it’s still very child like. She’s adamant she won’t have a beau or get married.
Then we get this:
“Emily was just turning to go back when she caught sight of a magnificent spray of farewell summer, growing far out on the edge of the bank. She must get it—she had never seen farewell-summers of so dark and rich a purple. She stepped out to reach them—the treacherous mossy soil gave way under her feet and slid down the steep slope. Emily made a frantic attempt to scramble back but the harder she tried, the faster went the landslide, carrying her with it.”
Continue if you don’t mind spoilers
And directly after this we get the introduction of Dean. Now granted, I do not remember much about Dean, but what I do remember is that he’s 36, he’s interested In Emily (who is like 12??) Is possessive of her, they have some sort of relationship, and eventually asks her to marry him. We also see in this chapter a seeming awakening in Emily in regards to deans physical attractiveness (though she says she doesn’t find him handsome, she sure does focus on his particular features a lot).
So maybe I’m way off here, but her falling off the cliff seemed like a metaphor for her leaving childhood and her “virgin” state of mind and falling (literally) into young adulthood, heralded (or pushed) by Dean. Who in my opinion keeps trying to grow her up faster than she should. “Emily made a frantic attempt to scramble back but the harder she tried, the faster went the landslide, carrying her with it.”. And meanwhile, all Emily really wanted was to follow her dreams to be a writer “She must get it—she had never seen farewell-summers of so dark and rich a purple. She stepped out to reach them—” And it’s Dean she reaches out to, to help her achieve that dream, but all he really does is pull her down. “The treacherous mossy soil gave way beneath her feet”
Anyways hope this made sense. If I’m wrong feel free to tell me.
Never has my opinion about a non-antagonist character changed so drastically than it has about Shigure ok there might have been some before but right now I can’t think of any.
I went from “Oh he’s just a silly lil guy” to “*sobs* silly *sobs again* DAD” to “ohhhh….silly….pervy😳lil guy” to “ohhhh….silly mysterious guy???” to “oh- oh….😬”
I feel like rowan is bird psycho (I've only got to around ep3 or 4 or 5 I can't remember) and I don't have any Reasoning for this other than the fact that he could've been pretending to like malakai to get close and personal with amerie??? Idk just a hunch
Also he looks like the lovechild of Martin Addison and simon spier and I don't trust that one bit
ok ok so josh stewart is done with CM and everyone is thinking that this is the catalyst for jemily to finally happen
But has anyone and I mean anyone at all considered the most likely, very real possibility that MGG is going to come back and that 🤢🤢🤢 jeid 🤢🤢🤢 will be endgame?????
Because,,, let’s be honest,,, what’s a more likely scenario here:
• two women on the team who the show runners have spent the last three seasons of this show completely the bond and relationship they have to the point they barely seem like friends anymore (and said women who have never canonically shown interest in another woman) suddenly confessing feelings for each other out of the blue (plus I highly doubt the writers are gonna do something like a late in life sexuality crisis; that would mean they’d actually have to focus on someone other than rossi 😒)
OR (and this is TERRIFYING)
• having reid come back after will dies or fucks off or whatever they’re gonna do with the man to be jj’s knight in shining armor especially since they pushed this whole “i’ve always loved you!!!” narrative in the last two seasons of CM
wake up sheeple we are not being blessed with the possibility of jemily, we are being threatened with the most likely outcome of jeid
