Ravin's chapters are really painful to read, that is all
#the final architecture#lords of uncreation#adrian tchaikovsky#morzarin ravin okosh uskaro#ravin uskaro#we've had sympathetic pov characters all along and suddenly we have to spend time inside the head of this guy#whyyyyy#I keep waiting for him to care about other people or something#but nope#just keeps doubling down on the thinking he's better than everyone else#ugh#genocidal maniac

Trine being undiplomatic <3

Kit may well be my favourite alien so far

I sympathise so much Trine. Those pesky people getting in the way of everything

Having an entire chase and fight scene narrated in the language of corporate administration is pure brilliance and I hope there are many more Havaer chapters to come
#the final architecture#eyes of the void#adrian tchaikovsky#havaer mundy#paperwork#expense reports#also spoilers I guess#I'm enjoying the havaer chapters very much so far#just my kind of character

Poor guy can't catch a paperwork break


Havaer Mundy really hates paperwork
#the final architecture#havaer mundy#eyes of the void#so much paperwork#blaming paperwork for all the things wrong in your life#including corpses of ~spoilers~

Havaer Mundy is so wonderfully understated
#the final architecture#eyes of the void#havaer mundy#reams#and lots more tags probably#but I don't have the book in hand and I forgot which alien a factor is supposed to be#hanni#maybe? the crab people#anyway#I enjoy reading Mundy chapters very much

I love it that even however many centuries in the future, Catalonians are still making a fuss about their independence and they finally made it, even if it's halfway across the galaxy 💛❤️

Imagine making a mistake that was caught and handled and no one got hurt and being condemned to eternal torture, instead of, idk, more training or a different job, or some other normal consequence

Actually I think maybe Erich gets it better than you do, Biryar. He also didn't grow up in a brainwashing dictatorship, that tends to help with the critical thinking skills
#the expanse#memory's legion#james s a corey#auberon#biryar rittenaur#erich#our boy erich still running a crime ring on the other end of the galaxy <3#he got to see space#I'll admit my knowledge of the British Empire is superficial#but from what I remember I agree with Erich#those are bad odds and it's a difficult job#and Erich just wants to be corrupt in peace

Lego Hobbit difficulty level: child logic
Try to defeat the Goblin King (or a similar character) where you need two Dwarves to buddy up and smash the Goblin within a very narrow time window. Do it in free play and make both characters wear the helmet that makes them invisible - to you. Bonus points if you choose to do this in a scene full of small goblins trying to stop you from getting to the big goblin, because the wraith snorkle invisibility effect does not work on them.
#lego the hobbit#goblin king#wraith snorkle#invisibility helmet#child logic#do this and watch the adults around you despair#“please fix it I can't defeat the troll”#“me neither since I cannot see the characters can I change the helmet?”#“no”#we compromised by letting the Dwarves wear the chicken helmet instead
