To her surprise, Moiraine felt a flash of jealousy. She had never felt that before, certainly not for any of the women who had thrown their hearts at his feet, or those who had shared his bed. Indeed, she had never thought of him as an object of jealousy, had never thought so of any man. She was married to her battle, as he was married to his. But they had been companions in those battles for so long. He had ridden a horse to death, then run himself nearly to death, carrying her in his arms to the last, to Anaiya for Healing.

Ji Ho is worried because the bond drags Vlad and him together. He knows that Vlad loves him and it must be hard for him to endure that Ji Ho wants to be around him all the time even though he does not love Vlad - but Luci. After Ji Ho used the bond to call Vlad for help, it got even worse. The bond wants them to get physical ö.ö They hugged - twice - at the snow festival even though they never really talked to each other or touched (only when Vlad claimed Ji Ho and when they tightened the bond).
Tumblr media
Giga: “That’s nothing to worry about. The bond needs to get charged. After such an extreme strain even more. That can be done in different ways. Usually with the love between the two bonded. Weaker bonds between vampires and their servants by drinking their servant’s blood. But that’s impossible in your case because it would kill Vlad. Since you don’t love Vlad, the only thing left is physical contact.” Jack: “But don’t worry. Vlad likes it! Look, he didn’t even complain when I kissed him when we rehearsed. And? Did he complain after you tightened the bond?” Ji Ho: “Uhm - no?” Jack: “See! He’s quite a cuddler!” (Jack’s logic is brain twisting... and Vlad did complain when Jack kissed him! omg)
Tumblr media
Vlad is determined that the next book he’s going to read will be ‘1000 ways to kill your best friend’... (of course he overheard it - as always)
Tumblr media
When they finally fell asleep (!) Vlad went over to bring Ji Ho his new Simmi figure. (Vlad often gives Ji Ho secretly presents because he knows Ji Ho would feel uncomfortable if he would give them to him openly. The Ewok on Ji Ho’s bed is a present from Vlad too.)
Tumblr media
After all that happened Ji Ho worries about him and his feelings... and since Kiyoshi burned the mixture, he can’t even bring Luci back for Ji Ho to comfort him.
Tumblr media
TMI: Vlad got Yamachan Simmi first ö.ö So he bought another one instead...
Tumblr media
Poor Ji Ho. He evolved new fear thanks to Yamachan’s Party ;-;

Soundtrack on youtube: Physical - Olivia Newton John
I've been patient, I've been good Tried to keep my hands on the table It's gettin' hard this holdin' back If you know what I mean Let's get physical, physical I wanna get physical Let's get into physical Let me hear your body talk, your body talk Let me hear your body talk

Teaser: Warp has broken out of prison and now he’s getting his revenge on the Teen Titans… by saving them… but what if he can’t save Robin and Raven?

@randomfoggytiger Just to make things easier for me, I've gathered up your most recent comments on our S3 discussion. Let's work backwards and start with Walk Slowly.
Just read the script... I love both versions so much; but I think the episode played it best for Vincent's internal crisis (i.e. cutting others out but unable to do so with the children.) Their griefs responding to each other works well; and I just wish the ep. had included that a variant of that scene before the children went to find Vincent.
Yes, it would have been nice to see the kids hold their own little memorial service for Cathy. It's a shame we didn't get another letter-burning ceremony at the Mirror Pool like Eric's for Ellie, too. But I guess you can only pack so much grief into one episode before it becomes overwhelming.
And Vincent's eulogy struck me: he and Cathy share a lot of the same qualities but he gives her all the credit; and further, his greatest comfort was that she was safe now.
Vincent is always very quick to praise others for their best qualities, and very reluctant to accept praise or acknowledgement for his own. I think that's just the way he's wired. I think it might also have something to do with his constant self-loathing of those aspects within him that are Beast. Isn't it heartbreaking that the one thing he's most thankful for is that Cathy can never be hurt again?
Onto the bond. I'm going to address this one comment and then snip and combine a few more.
Would Cathy have been... not jealous but saddened that the bond transferred from her to their son, since you set up she wasn't overwhelmed with joy? I think she would have made her peace and left Vincent to scramble with understanding the pieces.
I think she'd already made her peace with the loss of the bond in Though Lovers Be Lost, primarily because it was a one-way bond in many more ways than it was mutual. If you think back on the first two seasons, there were only two occasions where Cathy felt a direct empathic connection with Vincent, and that was the cave-in in Shades of Grey and again in A Distant Shore.
Vincent's connection with Cathy, however, was constant. There wasn't a moment when he wasn't aware of how she was feeling and what she was feeling - as if they were one. And it was that empathic connection that allowed Vincent to know when she was in danger. He had no choice but to answer her fear by eliminating any threat to her. So the loss of the bond didn't really affect her. You can't miss what you never had, right?
Also: the bond I think is tied to Vincent-- when he saved Cathy he "left a piece" with her, like she left a piece with him. Maybe that piece-- gift-- transformed into their son because Buster's integration "sullied" A. the "pureness" of Vincent and that side's connection to Cathy and B. forced that piece of him someplace else... their son? Cathy calls son beautiful, of course because he's her baby... but does he remind her of the "purer" Vincent that she was bonded to?
No offense meant here, but maybe you're making this more complicated than it needs to be? Because IMO you're so close to nailing what the major consensus is with most All-Season fans about what caused the loss of the bond.
First of all, I believe that the bond developing between Vincent and his son is something completely separate and apart from the bond he had with Cathy. The fragile connection he has with Jacob didn't come at the cost of his bond with her. He only became aware of it (or it wasn't formed) until Cathy went into labor. Perhaps the baby's nascent awareness of beingness triggered the establishment of the bond with his father. We know newborns are aware of their own birth on some primal level. They feel a certain amount of discomfort during the process. So it makes sense that the bond would begin to manifest when the child became aware of himself. But, again, it's not connected to what V had with C.
how much of their relationship was spent with him suffering because she was in danger?
You're almost there!
And Cathy realizing this and STILL and still.
And on and on it went, until it reached the point that it was very literally killing Vincent, tearing him in two. Because he couldn't not protect her and he couldn't protect her without having to kill for her. I know I've kept banging away at this one point as you've watched the show, but Vincent had no choice. Once that bond was established, he was hardwired to answer her fear by spilling blood. And then try to integrate all his emotions and all her emotions and all the different flavors of needs and desires it triggered in him. It was trauma after trauma after trauma. What Paracelsus did to him was just the final shove off the cliff.
So what might a person's mind, their psyche, do when its reached the point where the only options left are death or escape? In Vincent's case, he unconsciously chose escape. He severed the bond himself in that cave. He subconsciously swapped the bond with Cathy (that he knew was killing him), for a sort of traumatic empathic blindness. If he didn't have to feel everything she felt, then he didn't have to tear people to shreds for her anymore.
Of course Vincent doesn't realize he's done this. All he knows at first is a feeling of peace and contentment. As he said himself, he feels blessed. It's only after some time has passed that he begins to wonder why the bond has been lost and what that might mean going forward. And then goes completely off the rails when she disappears because, without the bond, she's lost to him.
Chew on that for a while and get back to me, if you want. And if you'd like to read the result of an ongoing and lively discussion between myself, Nan, and Rhonda Collins, another 4th season writer, that took place years ago, check out Nan's Veritas. You can find it here.

Sebastian: “Told you they would come back one day.” Felix: “It’s not them. Quick, lock the door! They must be in the other lab.”
Vlad: “ - censored - “
Tumblr media
Felix: “Here you are. Trying to make me jobless again?” (It seems Felix took his job a bit too serious? Had he been waiting here for them for two years even after the lab closed down? ö.Ö)
Tumblr media
Ji Ho has a closer connection to the Bond than Vlad. (It’s maybe because of their ying/yang personalities? Ji Ho is more intuitive and Vlad more logical.) Ji Ho let the Bond take control. Vlad looks so confused, but he gave in ^^’
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This bond is really something else!
Tumblr media
It had switched them!

And now Felix and Sebastian are trapped!

Will you ever finish your AO3 fic “The Bond”? I haven’t started it yet because it’s incomplete, and the last upload was last year so I’m scared to invest time in it 😅 (I don’t know how often you get asked this, so you can just ignore me if you’re sick of hearing about it, I was just curious)
not sick of answer it! it helps when people send messages because it reminds me that there are people out there who really need me to put on my big girl pants and start writing again
I do plan to finish that fic! i have a lot more stuff for it written i have just been dragging my feet
