I am a time spinner. I have come from the future to seek out a special teacher. I’ve seen the Book of Life with my own eyes. I don’t understand how my magic is connected to it, but I do know this. My relationship to my magic, to Matthew Roydon and to the Book of Life are woven together. One cannot exclude the other.

I love ADOW, season three being my favorite because I really enjoyed how they handled Matthew's and Diana's relationship, specifically adding more moments that weren't weighed down by the plot of them being together even when the world was trying to pull them apart. But I am forever thankful for season three giving me that scene of pregnant Diana eating snacks beside Matthew while he was just laid across the bed, resting his chin on his arms. Like it was so cute.

I'm rewatching A Discovery of Witches despite the fact that precisely because it is silly and self-indulgent and delightfully unapologetic about being a show about forbidden romance™ and vampires and witches in good knitwear.
Anyway. It strikes me that I may have subconsciously craved a rewatch because it is also a very powerful -- and, again, absolutely shameless -- fantasy about overcoming the anxieties, pressures, and not infrequent indignities and insults that come with being a female academic. To wit:
You will get a job
Moreover, you will get a good job
Despite your imposter syndrome, you are good at what you do
Your research topic is special and important
That powerful older man who's awful to you at a cocktail party? he's just an asshole
Your intellectual passions will not make you ineligible for or incapable of having a satisfying romantic relationship
Oh, and your manuscripts love you back <3

grief carves a place in the heart and sits there forever. but when focused, it can be a powerful motivator. sadness becomes resolve and pain becomes action 🍂🤍

once the world was full of W O N D E R S, but it belongs to humans now. we creatures have all but disappeared; daemons, vampires and witches. hiding in plain sight, fearful of D I S C O V E R Y, ill at ease even with each other. but as my father used to say: in every ending, there is a new B E G I N N I N G.

Before officially meeting, do you think Matthew and Diana ever just casually passed each other while on campus? Cause I'm imagining Gallowglass watching from an undetectable distance, seeing Diana cross a courtyard, going in the opposite direction of Matthew and Gallowglass is just simultaneously panicking and relieved.
Gallowglass: Oh my God, it's happening! They're going to finally meet! After centuries of waiting and decades of watching, Diana will finally be- Wait! Why is she walking away? Auntie! Turn back right now! Matthew! Turn around and go meet your wife!
They both continue on their way, completely oblivious to who they just walked past.
Gallowglass, unable to decide if this was a good or bad thing: Ok, they didn't meet this time. So, I don't have to leave her yet. But it'll be sooner rather than later now. At least she'll be happy when they do meet...

Most witches have one element in their blood and they only see the threads of those elements. So it is easy for them to choose between them. But you saw them all. Wind. Water. Earth. And fire. All within you. No wonder you’re such trouble.

Sorry, the Cullens Are Not the Best Vampire Family
These vamps are in a league of their own. (Baseball pun intended.)
Collider Sept 24, 2023
Deborah Harkness, author of A Discovery of Witches, was inspired to write the series after seeing the popularity of paranormal romance novels and wondering why these creatures still captivate us.
 The de Clermont vampire family in A Discovery of Witches is more complex and intriguing than the Cullen family in Twilight, offering a fresh and intimate perspective on vampire dynamics.
 Ysabeau and Philippe, initially distrustful of their vampire son Matthew's witch partner Diana, eventually gain respect and even affection for her, showcasing the power of love and acceptance within the family.
On the surface, it might seem as though A Discovery of Witches draws heavily from the human-vampire romances that preceded it. That assessment's only half-true. Deborah Harkness, author of the New York Times bestselling All Souls trilogy upon which A Discovery of Witches is based, didn't read any vampire literature before penning her novels. But her creativity was sparked in 2008 after seeing the sheer wealth of paranormal romances adorning bookshelves. "It seemed to me much bigger than what had happened with Anne Rice," Harkness explained to The Los Angeles Times in 2011. "As a historian of science, […] I thought, Why do these creatures still exert such a pull on us?" Furthermore, Harkness "[ wondered] if there really are witches and vampires, what do they do for a living?" Her resulting All Souls trilogy is a delightful enterprise and not a copy of Twilight, True Blood, The Vampire Diaries, or any popular supernatural saga. In the paranormal romance world, certain story beats naturally tread similar ground. Harkness, a decorated historian, scholar, and university professor, weaves the forbidden love story of historian witch Diana Bishop (Teresa Palmer) and vampire scientist Matthew Clairmont (Matthew GoodE) together with magic, philosophy, metaphor, and detailed historical accuracy. That convergence makes for a fascinatingly fresh perspective on the genre while never losing sight of its romantic heart. With that said, there's a specific unintentional similarity A Discovery of Witches shares with Twilight — that awkward feeling when your in-laws are vampires. The Cullens of Twilight might welcome you into the fold with a baseball game, but A Discovery of Witches has the better vampire family by a home run mile. Sorry, not sorry.
