It Might Kill Me Chapter 17
We're fucking back
A billion thank yous to @im-doing-hot-girl-shit for both her routine encouragement, advice, and ass-kicking AND her amazing artwork to accompany this chapter. Truly the GOAT
~~~
The Good, the Bad, and the Bloody
Summary: The first morning in the arena dawns somewhat differently than Caer expected, and every plan she comes up with seems to be thwarted before it can even get off the ground. Still, it's good to have a Career by her side, even if he's less than she expected, and even if he has no more control than she does over the surprises of the arena...
Preview:
We make a left turn to head further north, both of us on high alert, sure we’re going to find the cache at any moment. We’re in about the right spot, by my reckoning, so it’s got to be around here somewhere…
The arena, however, has other plans.
Less than ten minutes after entering the darkness, the world around us lights up.
Cato and I both freeze, looking around warily, searching for any sign of danger. We haven’t forgotten that earlier the lights were accompanied by deadly plants, and for all we know they might break through the ground around us at any second.
I’m hyper conscious of the pounding of my heart, but several long seconds pass and nothing happens. Still, when we resume our journey it’s at a more urgent pace, our shared concern about possible danger clear if unspoken.
We need to find that cache, and now.
One minute later the rain starts.

Song Review: Blind Boys of Alabama - “Heaven Help us All”
Slightly overwrought but still meaningful, “Heaven Help us All” finds the Blind Boys of Alabama employing earthly soul music to accompany their secular, yet spiritual, message.
The individual Blind Boys split the verses before joining together on the hopeful refrain:
Heaven help the black man if he struggles one more day/heaven help the white man if he turns and walks away/heaven help the man who kicks the man who’s trying to crawl/heaven help us all/heaven help us all/heaven help us all/heaven help us all/when we call
The track follows “Friendship” and “Work Until My Days are Done” and will serve as the closing cut on Echoes of the South, set for release Sept. 8.
Grade card: Blind Boys of Alabama - “Heaven Help us All” - B-

I want more people to make Nü Wa also Wukong’s mom because she also created him in one of the myths and if that’s the route we’re going for no fucking wonder he’s got so many issues
But I also fear that if Season 5 does this they’re all going to go “of course he has mommy issues” like ok he was also groomed, forced to partake in a fight he didn’t even want to do, is actually doing great as a mentor and is a somewhat good role model to Xiaotian and has taught him how to be controlled and capable and is clearly proud of him and has been effectively trying to change as a person
But sure let’s focus on the mommy issues and not the serious aspect of how Nü Wa not only did this again but also is no different from the other people in Heaven who do nothing for the mortals and immortals that have suffered because of their lack of care towards them and only imprison or attack them because they… attack Heaven directly.
Demon Bull King and Sun Wukong hold no grudges because they were victims of a very weird and messed up system; I hope Erlang gets punched in the face by them both

So, who's gayer? Vaggie "I regrew body parts out of love" or Marina "Not even Nintendo can censor me"?
I think Marina and Charlie would have a LOVELY chat together, i think Charlie "started a hotel to help her people regain their humanity and have a better life" and Marina "built a virtual reality to help her people regain their lost memories and sense of self" would gush so hard over each other, be so happy for each other over Sir Pentious and Dedf1sh / Acht, would join in most epic hand grip of understanding and respect the universe has ever seen-
i think Marina "used to only spend TWO hours talking to herself about machines" and Charlie "will sing whole arias to herself and make a stick note wall of madness trying to sort out her thoughts" would also have A Lot To Chat About-
especially their smol newly flight-powered and combat upgraded girlfriends
where ARE their girlfriend anywa-
(sounds of explosions) (sounds of gay laughter) NO WAIT STOP THOSE ARE THE LITERAL GATES OF HEAVEN PEARLIBOT AND VAGGIE NO!!!!!!

new hot take is that "i don’t need anyone but God" is pretty much wrong and we should stop telling people they can’t get married/have children/etc before they believe this fully. unless you have the spiritual fortitude of a hermit it is untrue. obviously God is perfection in which no lack can be found but we are not in His full presence by virtue of being on earth! if we were then we would be in heaven but we are not! in the meantime, the experience of God we have on earth necessarily includes other people whether they be friends or spouses or children. if that was not true God would not have said "It is not good for man to be alone" and given him a companion even though God himself was interacting with Adam! in this current state of separation from God as it exists on this earth, very few people can really be without all other people and rely only on contemplation and prayer. obviously God is enough and will always be enough, but our perception of Him in this fallen world is seriously lacking if we cannot experience His love through the experience of loving and being loved by others.

Posted this angsty legal nonsense a little while ago but thought it deserved a more official share.
~~~
Summary:
Inej realises that she was so eager to leave the Menagerie she neglected to ask a few important questions about just what her duties as a Dreg would be, and what exactly her new boss expects from her.
Preview:
There was one phrase she remembered, as clearly as though the paper was right before her again: “Reimbursement will be provided for all services performed within the reasonable scope of the undersigned’s contracted duties.” When she’d asked him what that meant, he’d raised one eyebrow and almost smiled. She thought he might have been laughing at her, at some joke she’d unknowingly walked right into.
“If I could tell you exactly what’s reasonable in the eyes of the law, I would be a very wealthy man in a very different line of work.”
She hadn’t known what that meant, and she hadn’t inquired further.
But the word stuck with her. Reasonable. Reasonable according to whom? In the eyes of the law? The law didn’t care about her; if it did, Heleen would never have been able to hold her indenture over her head like she had. At least, that’s what he said; it’s not as though Inej knew enough about Kerch law or anything else to confirm his claim that her indenture contract would be nullified in front of an honest judge. What she did know, what her time at the Menagerie had taught her, was that honest judges were awfully hard to come by in this Saints-forsaken city. The judges she’d met hadn’t found it unreasonable to pay for a fourteen-year-old Suli girl to lay back and open her body to them. They hadn’t found it unreasonable that she couldn’t say no for fear of the beating she would receive from Heleen.
Inej looked up at the boy folded into the plush chair in the corner of the shop, one hand on his cane, the other tucked beneath his jaw as he scrutinised the garment the seamstress held up. It was some kind of vest with many pockets.
What was reasonable for Kaz Brekker?
