Jude's dress for Dain’s Coronation

I think it’s important that we note how Cardan had seen Jude in Liriope’s dress at Locke’s gathering, and according to Jude, he had spotted her while saving Sophie as well, even though she’d thought he hadn’t actually seen her, but come on? Faerie sight and Cardan always recognizing Jude?

So, I think it’s safe to say that he was mesmerized by the sight of her, both, in that dress, and in the dark, the woods behind her and the moonlight and whatnot, and that he’d decided he’d like to see her in the same style as the dress she wore at Locke’s, but in the colors he’d seen her (or envisioned her) in that night. I like to think that the seamstress incorporated both Dain’s and Cardan’s wishes, btw. It’s very likely, too, since Jude got to see her dress’s final look after the aforementioned two events. I know she thinks/says,

Over that is stitched the stark outlines of trees, the way I see them from my window as dusk is falling.

But can’t it be that her view of the trees from her window was similar to Cardan’s view of her, while she was helping the mortal girl?

“I still have the anba you gave me,” she admitted. “Callebero was going to show me how to wear it, but then…” She trailed off, not sure how to finish. The short sword was carefully stowed in a padded box in her chambers, never worn. Betine’s eyebrows rose slightly, her light eyes widening in surprise before she caught herself and gave a faint smile. “I guess you really don’t need any noble escort, then.”  She paused, rubbing at the back of her neck. “Ah, you know you really didn’t need to keep it.” Her expression had turned sheepish, a far cry from the easy confidence she’d worn each time Jisel had seen her recently. Amusement spread through Jisel, softening her own nerves. She bumped Betine’s arm lightly with her shoulder and folded her hands behind her back. “In Capall, it’s considered bad luck—and unforgivably rude—to cast aside or lose a gift,” she replied. At that, Betine’s eyebrows lifted and she tilted her head to one side, considering. She glanced sideways at Jisel, eyes narrowed slightly as if in thought.

“What if it was a terrible gift, though?” she asks. “How do you get rid of anything?” A smile tugged at the corner of Jisel’s lips. “You give it to someone else.” Betine snorted, shoulders hitching with the laughter. Her embarrassment dissipated easily, and she shook her head slightly.

“And if the gift is so bad it keeps getting passed on, what happens if it’s returned to the original gifter?” She raised her eyebrows as she asked, amusement tucked in the corner of her lips. “Then, hopefully, they learn to give better gifts,” Jisel replied.

 •          File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks: Network software

 •          Internet Protocol Version 4: Network protocol

 Step 2: workgroup, peer-to-peer

 Hands-On Project 1-6

 Step 10: File sharing, peer-to-peer

 Case Projects

 Case Project 1-1

 A server-based network is the best choice. A peer-to-peer network might work for now, but when new employees are hired, a peer- to-peer network would be too difficult to manage. The key is that easy backup and centralized storage for files point to a server-based network.

 Case Project 1-2

 Because employees must be able to control access to their own resources, a peer-to-peer model works best. Supplies will likely include NICs, cabling, and a switch. Students should state they need to configure file shares and possibly create user accounts on the computers to allow access by other users. They might also need to configure IP address settings, although self-configuring addresses could be used.

 Case Project 1-3

 An internetwork is called for because LANs in the same building are being connected. A router is probably needed for communication between LANs on the two floors.

 Case Project 1-4

 A personal area network (PAN)

 Case Project 1-5

I am going to make my mayfly life count for something.

[clockworkbee]

For instance, the stuff that goes on between her and Valerian? The horror of knowing that someone wants to kill you, that they would delight in seeing the life go out of you, and then actually saving yourself from those attempts multiple times? Like, actually seeing murder in their eyes, and then realizing you could have been dead if not for luck or the fighting instinct in you? He was her first kill, even if it was in self-defence, and that too right after she saw the girl she was trying to save, chose to drown? No wonder she’d lost her mind.

Jude Duarte is one of the strongest mortal characters that I’ve ever read about. Like, when you look at the traumatic, life-altering experiences she’s been through, even before the age of 18? Yes, no one could ever.

It’s easy for all that she’s been through to just blur into one big messy picture, but each and every thing that she suffered made her stronger and tougher as a person, if not better as a human being. And who would even expect her to be, surrounded as she was by the inhuman folk?
