There are actually three Murphy's Laws!
Nothing is as easy as it looks,
Everything will take longer than you think, and
Anything that can happen, will happen.
What people think of as Murphy's Law is more appropriately Finagle's Law: "Anything that can go wrong, will — at the worst possible moment." (It is also occasionally rendered as, "All things being equal, the perversity of the Universe tends toward a maximum".)
'Light at the end of the tunnel is a train headed right for you' is another one.
Tumblr media
I love the various lists of 'murphy's laws' they're a good way to make a point and instruct while making it funny at the same time.

Married to the Prince of Melancholy
My new Dreamling fic is up on AO3: Married to the Prince of Melancholy.
Mature, 10,4k words, Established Relationship, 1st person POV, 3rd person POV
Summary:
If your Dream feels broken, how do you care for him? How do you keep yourself going for years and years? What if love can't fix everything? I present to you a day in the life of Dreamling (and an angsty backstory).
Snippet from the first chapter:
Friday evening, 10 September 2018, Wych Cross
Dear all, if I die in this place, here is an account of what happened to me. 
Not that it will make any difference. Not that you care much about me, mother mine, father mine. Perhaps the only one who does is you, big sister. 
But I have nothing else to do than write. Or observe the cruel passage of time - apart from this pen and notebook, the only other thing I have is my watch.
No one will come here until Tuesday morning and thus I know precisely what awaits me.
Air is no concern, the sphere has small air vents at the bottom and the top for safety reasons. Water is... I am resolved not to describe the effects of dehydration on me as it progresses. If you want the gruesome details, ask the doctor in the family. Or the coroner.
...
The succession of events so far:
The handover date is in a week. Everything is almost ready. At 18:30, I was the last one on site today (I haven't come by to check in person in these last few weeks and it was high time to do so). The basement and the glass sphere have received their finishing touches this day.
I went in. If Roderick Burgess is right and the visitors will indeed want to enter this contraption, I wanted to make sure that there was nothing that would disturb the intended experience. Thus I needed to see what it was like.
A few seconds after the door slid into place (the rail mechanism is very silent and when the door is closed, it does not visually disturb the sphere. good), the power went out.
In less than a minute, the backup generator became operational. The lights came back on. The door did not.

Sigil Sunday
Today's Sigil is a variation of my protection sigil from last week, modified to protect against the "worst case scenarios" of a planned action. We've all heard of Murphy's Law, that anything that can go wrong will, and this sigil is designed to protect against just that. Cast this when there's a lot of capacity for unexpected problems, and perhaps a little luck will be on your side.

Love how my kitchen sink saw it was super full of dishes I need to wash before leaving for Gally in a matter of hours and went "no thank you, I do not want to drain today."
Tried all the home remedies so a request is in to the maintenance office and now we just have to hope they come before it's time to leave. 🫠🙃

The 100 rewatch 2023 S1 E4
Episode “Murphy’s Law”
Let’s start with live blogging the first of my all time fave episodes of season 1! Here i go!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Clarke mourning Wells’ death. I am not ok. Finn (of course...) appears randomly with a pencil for her that he found somewhere. He wants to cheer her up. The pencil reminds her of the better days on the ark when Wells did a similar thing for her... ouch... Nice try, Finn.
Clarke’s still heavily struggling with the fact that her MOM (of all people) basically KILLED her father. Oh look, Finn’s out of words for once. Who would’ve thought. Clarke want’s to contact her mom “to tell her, that she KNOWS - to make her feel it”... She’s upset. And she’s having an idea...
On the ark Abby suddenly has to witness Clarke’s vital sign disappear... She’s shook! Is her daughter dead?! no... this means nothing... or? (So THAT’S how Clarke wanted to make her feel... That’s hard.
Earth/dropship camp: Finn calls Clarke out “You wanted to punish your mother.”
Meanwhile, Bellamy and Murphy coordinate the building of a wall around the camp. Oh and there’s little child of satan, Charlotte, helping too. Everyone’s oblivious to what she had done. Everyone thinks the grounders killed Wells...
Jasper’s doing better now. O helps him walking a few steps - outside the camp walls... What is she THINKING?! Oups, there you have it, Jasper‘s stumbling and falls to the ground - he’s basically falling with his nose on a knife and some... bloody, human fingers... EWWW... (Well’s fingers?)
The ark: Abby is restless. Kane confronts her randomly, making clear, that he’s watching her “like he’s watching everyone else” - who believes that, Kane? He’s specifically targeting her.
Raven is still secretly working on the escape pod for Abby. She needs a new pressure regulator. Abby’s still worried, she tells her, that her daughters vital sign disappeared. “Doesn’t mean anything” Raven reassures her.
In the dropship camp Clarke, O, Jasper and Bellamy argue about the knife Jasper’d “found”. They know it’s from the dropship. The murderer of Wells has to be one of The 100!!! That’s new for them and hard to process. Bell want’s to keep it quiet. He knows for sure that bringing this particular news to puplic would most likely create a lynch mob. All of the The 100 kids are criminals. ALL of them have the capability to commit a crime or even a murder. It’s better to keep their rage directed at the supposed threat from OUTSIDE the camp walls. But Clarke - again - is immediately in his face “Get out of my way, Bellamy!” She’d noticed the initials carved into the knife: J.M.!!! JOHN MURPHY! “The people have a right to know!” oh-oh...
Clarke’s FUMING. She storms out of the tent. Murphy killed her best friend! HE WILL PAY FOR THIS!!! Outside she’s immediately attacking Murphy - who clearly has no idea wtf is going on. “(...) YOU KILLED WELLS!” We see little Charlottes face growing worried...
And now it’s really getting messy and violent. Everyone’s gathering around them. We can almost FEEL the aggressive tension grow. Murphy, still kind of self-assured, defends himself. What could that crazy, little princess possibly do that could seriously harm him? It’s ABSURD! But Clarke’s not listening. “I know what you did! And i’m gonna make you pay for it!” jesus...
Murphy’s turning to Bellamy now. But he just stands there, his arms crossed, just listening. Clarke’s not ready yet. “You threatened him. YOu HATED Wells!”
And now you can see Murphy’s confidence fade when he looks around and only sees judgy expressions in The 100′s faces. He’s getting nervous. “This is ridiculous. I don’t have to answer you. I DON’T HAVE TO ANSWER TO ANYONE!”
Haha, and there, Bell’s found his voice again it seems: “Come again?!” he growls sternly. Nice.  Everything is SO TENSE now, it’s like a powder keg that’s about to explode any second now.
Clarke’s whipping up the crowd even further - she wants justice! And the mob immediately takes this as a free card to “get Murphy floated”! Lynch justice is about to happen here!!! That’s not what Clarke had in mind - and you can see she already regrets what she was saying. They’re not listening to her anymore...
Now the crowd gets completely NUTS. All at once they’re attacking Murphy from all sides. And they really hang him up on the next tree! They want Bellamy to do the last step! I can’t even look at the screen omg! Charlotte’s HORRIFIED now - as well as Clarke, who DESPERATELY tries to hold Bellamy back. “YOU CAN STOP THIS! THEY LISTEN TO YOU!” The crowd is cheering his name. Bell seems unsure. Clarke wants him to get Murphy out of this “ I KNOW YOU’RE NOT A KILLER!” she screams- (how can she be so sure of that at this point tho? again: INTERESTING.)
But then - i almost can’t believe what i’m seeing... He’s doing it! Bellamy kicks the container from out of under Murphy’s feet - and Murphy is now seriously dangling from that trees’ branch, desperately struggling for air!!! WHAT THE EVERLASTING FUCK?!!?!=!? (BELLAMYYYY, I WAS ROOTING FOR YOU MAN! OMFG!!! THis.. is a shock...) But oh look... In the mere second after he’d done it, we see Bellamy looking down at the ground, his face is growing almost expressionless, petrified. Oh god... OMG WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!!!
Clarke’s there again, accusing and pushing him. But now he explodes. He’s pushing back “THIS IS ON YOU, PRINCESS! YOU SHOULD’VE KEPT YOUR MOUTH SHUT!” Ouff... He’s doing it again. Projecting his self hate about him being unable to avoid this onto someone else. He was literally FORCED to do it, he thinks. But HE KNOWS he should’ve done something to stop this. Clarke’s right, they probably would’ve listened to him. But Bellamy also has point. He had warned Clarke - but she didn’t listen to him. She was too blind, too angry, too hurt to see that Bell’s right.
But then - the ultimate plot twist for everyone: Charlotte’s finally coming out with the info. that SHE is the murderer of Wells......... --  Wait WHAT?! HOW THE HEAVENS?! For a mere second everyone is just... staring at the little girl in complete shock and disbelief.  But then Clarke falls into action very quickly, grabs the hatchet from Bell’s hip and saves Murphy by cutting him down from the tree.
In the complete MESS and SCREAMING that follows, Bellamy’s still just standing inmidst the chaos, his eyes following Charlotte, who’s carried away by Finn. It dawns to him, what really happened... and why... He can’t believe it though... he just can’t...
(Ouff... Needed a little break after this. THAT... was and always will be very intense. And all of this just in the first quarter of this episode!!! WHAAAT?! Let me BREATHE!) 
THe ark: Raven’s talking to a dubious woman named Nygel and provides us with another one of her iconic quotes: “I need a pressure regulator. “- “What for?”- “Regulating pressure?” LOL! You GOT to love her. Nygel is kind of an ass. Raven’s only getting what she wants, if she’s willing to pay for it with prostituing her body..... WH AT THE ACTUAL...?!?!? She’S disgusted, obviously. “Go float yourself!” Yes girl, you go! But Nygel’s not ready yet “You’re mother would’ve taken the deal. In fact, she did.” Raven’s at her throat IN AN INSTANT! What an insult! We have no clue if this could be actually true... but FUCK!
On the ground: Now Murphy’s the one seeking justice. He’s understandably very upset and wants to punish Charlotte himself. Charlotte is with Bell, Clarke and Finn in Bellamy’s tent, they’re arguing what to do next. Bell angrily defends himself “THIS IS NOT MY FAULT! If she (Clarke) had listened to me, these idiots would still be building the wall!” Like i said... he GOT a point here..
Bell’s leaving the tent to negotiate with Murphy and the others outside. But Murphy’s rightfully pissed af. He wants Charlotte to get hanged, like they did it with him. Bell declines and wants to leave BUT OH LOOK, that little shit hits him down with a wooden stick from behind! False move, Murph. Booh... But.. we know where this is coming from........
Murphy’s storming into the tent - but Clarke and Finn managed too flee with Charlotte out of the camp already. Thank goodness... I mean, that brat clearly NEEDS to get punished, but not THAT way. I guess we all agree on this.
The ark: Abby and Raven talking. Abby seems to have a better idea to get that particular pressure regulator they need. I’m curious. Abby’s off to meet Nygel herself now at the rationed food destribution of the ark. She secretly tries to blackmail her with some morphine. - The length she’s willing to go to get down to earth now tho... geez. Nygel takes the deal.
Earth, the woods: Clarke’s trying to make clear to Charlotte what she had done “You KILLED someone! Ended his life! You can’t just KILL someone to make yourself feel better!” Her anger frightens the child. Murphy’s screams are echoing through the forest. He and the others are hunting Charlotte.
Finn leads them to a hidden bunker in the forest floor that he had found some time before - and hadn’t mentioned until now. It’s a lot of stuff in there. (THERE he had the pencil from! I SEE!) Even candles! And suddenly... it’s almost cozy down there. (What a contrast programme i’m watching here...) Charlotte’s sound asleep now -they think... 
On the ark Raven’s surprised that Abby finally got that damn pressure regulator for her to finish the work on the escape pod. She’s eager to do it.
Oh! Mama Kane! She’s kind of a guru. Her audience: Some random ark-people from all stations. AND her son, Marcus! She’S talking about the ancestors, the builders of the ark. And about the hope they shall never lose, for one fine day they’ll all get back down to earth again. She sees her son. But Marcus clearly is only there, bc he wants to talk to Nygel in the background. In fact, SHE asked him to come. She’s basically telling on Raven’s and Abby’s ominous doings to him... They made her “break the law”. WTF!? What kind of a woman is that?!
On earth, in the bunker, Clarke and Finn had fallen asleep and as they wake up they find Charlotte gone and away! They’re off searching for her. They HAVE to get her before Murphy does!!!
It’s night now. Bell finds Charlotte in the dark woods. He’s still trying to save her. He’s feeling responsible for her... But the kid is feeling remourseful. “Just GO, okay? I’M the one they want!” But Bell’s just picking her up and flees with her. Charlotte’s screaming.
The ark: JAckson warns Abby. Nygel took her in and Kane’s on his way to get her. Abby’s talking with Raven, who’s about to finish her work on the escape pod now. She wants her to flee with it as soon as it’s fixed, so that at least one of them could get to the ground radioing the ark, that The 100 are still alive and the earth is inhabitable. The people of the ark would get a chance of salvation!
Raven doesn’t improve, but she gives in. The two women hug... My heart... I am emotional. “Tell Clarke I love her.” And then Abby’s off to face Kane.
On the ground Charlotte’s and Bellamy’s escape comes to an abrupt end when they reach a cliff and a seemingly bottomless abyss, Murphy and the others on their heels...  Now they’re trapped... But look, suddenly Clarke’s there too, she and Finn must’ve heard the screams, and she’s moving herself between the child (and Bell) and Murphy on the other side, tries to mediate between them.
BUT OH GOD, suddenly Murphy catches Clarke and threatens her with pressing a knife at her throat!!! Finn rushes forward but Murphy’s relentless. “I WILL SLIT HER THROAT!” Holy shit! He wants to trade Clarke for Charlotte - and Charlotte’s willing to go. But Bellamy is holding her back “Murphy, this is NOT HAPPENING!”
And then... i dreaded that moment... Charlottes teary, desperate little voice... “I cant let anyone of you get hurt anymore. Not because of me. Not after what i did...” She resignated. She gives up. Everything. Without any more sound she turns around - and jumps into the abyss. -  I remember being absolutely SHOOK when i saw this for the first time! I felt almost numb. Jesus... That little kid.. just.. jumped... ended her young life... unable to bear the guilt about what she had done... and maybe bc of what she endured in her past too: Jaha killing off her parents in front of her eyes... It was all too much, too heavy of a burden for such young shoulders. She didn’t see any other way. Oh god.. this still makes me so sad and very pensive, even after all these years and rewatches... Brilliantly written and played/acted though. I am speechless.
Clarke and Bellamy rushing to the edge of the cliff, screaming Charlotte’s name. They look down into the abyss, but the girl’s already out of sight. The kid’s dead and gone. Clarke’s crying now. Whimpering. Bell’s expression is tense. His eyes widened in shock. Side by side they’re looking down into this unforsaken dark abyss below.
When Bellamy turns around his eyes are searching for Murphy. He’s in RAGE now. He seeks revenge. Nothing else matters anymore at this moment. Bell’s throwing himself onto Murphy, bringing the boy down and brutally starts to punch him in the face, senselessly, relentlessly. Finally Finn’S restraining him, getting him off of Murphy. Bellamy’s fuming “HE DESERVES TO DIE!” But there’s Clarke again, screaming into his face: “We don’t decide who lives and dies! Not down here!” - So... The princess learned her lessons too. Good. “I was WRONG before! And you were right! Sometimes it’s dangerous to tell people the truth.” They clearly need some rules if they want to survive on the ground. They know this now. They can’t just live by “Whatever the hell we want!”.
Bell’s still upset “And who MAKES those rules? YOU?!” It sounds a little insulting, salty - and desperate. Clarke’s answer completely surprises him, even calms him down a little. She looks him straight into his eyes. “For now, WE make the rules.” Then they decide to banish Murphy from their camp instead of killing him. He’S threatened by Bellamy, that if he should ever come back again he’d kill him on the spot. 
The ark: Kane and the guards are coming to get Abby. She already awaits them in the corridor. She’s trying to shield Raven. Meanwhile Raven finishes the repair. She’s getting herself ready to take off with the escape pod. And she really launches!!! What a QUEEN! We see the pod on its way down to earth now. Abby, Kane and the others are hearing a sudden rumble when the pod takes off. Although she’s about to get arrested, Abby can’t restrain a little smile. She’S SO PROUD of Raven! AND she has hope again. For them all.
Down on earth in the dropship camp Clarke and Bellamy are telling the 100, that THEY are making the rules the group shall live by from now on. The two are changing a look. Their legendary co-leadership has just begun! - Yeay!
Meanwhile Raven’s in trouble in the escape pod. Something’s not working properly. The pod’s kind of tumbling towards the earths’ surface!
In the dropship Monty seems to have fixed the radio. They’re now able to send a signal up to the ark! Jasper does the last step to get this work. - On the ark, Jackson‘s irritated. He suddenly has some disturbing signals on his screen. But it’s just a short victory for the 100 on earth. The transmission ends, the connection breaks down again. Is it broken once and for all? Seems so. Everyone is so disappointed now, especially Jasper, who’s now sure that he’s cursed somehow. But there’s Octavia trying to cheer him up. OH! LOOK! She’s kissing him! I totally forgot that happened lol... Suddenly Jasper can smile again. Monty approves too! This is adorable.
And then... WHAT? We’re suddenly in that bunker again with Finn and Clarke (HOW DID THEY GET THERE SO FAST?!?!!!) Finn’s raging, desperate. Clarke’s there to talk (scream?) him down. “YOU ARE NOT ALONE!” And then they fall on each other (ew... okay... whatever...). Suddenly there’s much kissing and mourning and ripping off clothes. Yeah right. Are you done yet... *yawns* 
And at last: Poor Raven... The pod hadn’t stopped tumbling on its way down to earth. Hopefully she’ll survive the landing. I DON’T WANT ANYONE ELSE TO DIE, OKAY!!?!?! (Man... Little did i know...)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THAT... was one hell of a ride. Seriously. After i watched this episode for the first time i felt mentally EXHAUSTED. No kidding. I mean, we had a glimpse of what this series could develop into last episode already, when that child killed Wells. But THIS... THIS is a whole new level now. Two peak situations in just ONE single episode: The almost-execution of Murphy and the suicide of Charlotte. I’d count Raven’s lauching in that fixed escape pod too tbh. It’s so badass. I love it. This episode is so different from the first ones we saw. It’s not just these situations, it’s the whole PACING of the plot! It’s like BAM BAM BAM one shock, one intriguing moment chasing the other. Time flies while watching, you’re so absorbed into the happenings on screen, you don’t even realize it.
Brilliant. Just BRILLIANT. A masterpiece of an episode. And not the last one. Lord of the flies meets Lost or something like that. Awesome. And you can understand almost every single persons POV - you may not approve, but you KNOW where a particular person is coming from concerning their actions. Great.
On the other hand, that Finn and Clarke would be a thing wasn’t surprising at all. That was forseeable, although i really hoped she wouldn’t fall for that dude. But well, everyone deserves a little, distracting “work-out” every now and then... ;) And so does Clarke. But we all know... Clarke begins to put her heart into it now. Ugh.. This will hurt...
I already wrote down my thoughts concerning Clarke and Bellamy and what i think their thoughts could’ve been in the individual scenes during the live-blogging above. So i don’t repeat myself here. This post is already far too long, isn’t it? ;) Sorry... But i got carried away. SO MANY EMOTIONS!
What i liked: Raven Reyes on her way down to earth. YEAY! Clarke and Bellamy building up that famous co-leadership we all learn to cherish so much.
What i disliked: Um.. again: Isn’t that obvious? The 100 almost executing Murphy and Charlottes suicide. Also: That fling Finn and Clarke were starting (didn’t like that but it didn’t disturb me much either...).
Fave quote(s): “I KNOW you’re not a killer!”, “For now, WE make the rules!”  
Song(s)  i associate with the episode:  “Shot in the dark” by Within Temptation “Now I'm fighting this war since the day of the fall and I'm desperately holding on to it all - But I'm lost... I'm so damn lost..."
