#she fell a height that has killed ppl into the Dungeon Where You Send People To Die

[septimus-heap]

I rlly do find it funny how marcia has plot armour when septimus doesn't. Like in all (as far as I can remember) situations where sep is in danger or whatever we always get an explanation of how he got out at least SOMEWHAT. Even if how he got out is "someone else shows up" or "there wasn't any danger at all actually" we do still get an answer!! Marcia tho. Marcia has a scene where she loses her balance at the top of a massive drop. She reaches to grab for the wall to stop from falling but it's made from alchemists mortar or whatever and it crumbles as soon as she puts weight on it. Cut to sep+marcellus in the lift below who suddenly hear a heavy thump on top of the lift and they start moving again. Septimus correctly puts together that marcia was up there and exactly what happened, ending with her falling down the lift shaft. And then when he does his transport back to the top Marcia is somehow totally fine and miles away from the drop???? Ma'am what the fuck how did u survive that

#sep talks #septimus heap #marcia overstrand #this isn't even counting dn1 because thats SO confusing to me #she fell a height that has killed ppl into the Dungeon Where You Send People To Die #and somehow survives down there for a MONTH and when she's finally out shes just kind of. A little bit messy. Shoes ruined #but other than that she's fine???? #did they even give her food or anything. How?? I'm just picturing a custodian guard opening the door at the top and throwing a loaf of #bread down at her or smth #bc the alternative is that she didn't have food!!! And somehow didn't starve to death despite a month being longer than a person can last #without food #I guess maybe her magyk was keeping her alive??? But wasn't her magyk basically all gone at that point???? #idk. In conclusion marcia is unkillable
