#bc at this point sep has no family no home she'd be basically raising him alone

[septimus-heap]

Okay okay wait I know I talk abt this all the time but I am once again thinking abt how marcia was the one to offer septimus a home. She offered him an apprenticeship when hed spoken like 3 sentences total to her and I am INSANE over it

#sep talks #septimus heap #marcia overstrand #like the heaps were nice to him #they were friends I guess #if he hadn't been one of them he'd probably have stayed in touch with jenna and nicko or whatever #but. Marcia had offered him a home before that. She basically guaranteed him a home+stable job for the rest of his life if he wanted it #ALL THIS WHEN HE'S BARELY SAID 3 WORDS #and marcia says in the magykal papers that #she hadn't found anyone with enough talent yet along someone she could spend all that time with #and then she meets boy 412 and practically immediately decides that she is willing to spend that time w him #and that he is talented enough #and I've said this before but she's not stupid!! She knows this is basically adoption #bc at this point sep has no family no home she'd be basically raising him alone #and he is TEN and his only family drowned one night and obviously he doesn't know abt why marcia hadn't taken an apprentice before #but she has standards and they r HIGH and either he meets them all without having to try or she decided to ignore them #for the sake of helping this one child #OR BOTH. It could be both!!!! #I just. Hhhhhh it drives me crazy stupid insane #do u think sep had seen an adult that happy that he'd Done Something before he met marcia
