Thinking about how Hermes intentionally wasted Percy and Annabeths time in the casino hoping to change Lukes’ fate. And how everything Hermes has done since finding out about Lukes future will be in service of delaying/changing his fate. He said Poseidon warned him that no matter how much he tried to help, he would just make things worse. Yet he is still trying to help Luke. Still trying to make things right. But Luke has already chosen his path. Pure Greek tragedy

Suzanne Collins straight up invented a whole marriage ceremony based around toasting bread on an open fire for your one true love just to then have THE BAKER'S SON LITERALLY BURN BREAD FOR THE GIRL ON FIRE
Absolute legend.
LEGEND.

It's actually driving me insane that Harrow fell for Alecto. Harrowhark Nonagesimus, heir to the Ninth House, arguably the deadest House of them all including the one with congenital blood cancer, a place where quite literally everything and everyone except her is either dead or dying, Harrowhark, a self-described warcrime, the product of 200 dead children and infants fell in love with the physical manifestation of the Earth's soul. Harrowhark, a representation of and expert on all things dead is in love with the representation of all things living. With life itself. I am so normal about this.

Ok so the Good Omens Kiss Scene (tm) is a metaphor right?
Aziraphale is Crowley’s apple and vice versa, Crowley’s whole speech on the wall in the garden of eden was all about how strange it was that god would put the ONE thing you weren’t allowed to have DIRECTLY in front of you. And Crowley’s apple is obviously Aziraphale cuz I mean cmon. Crowley eats the apple (kisses Aziraphale) and Aziraphale does too (rejects him) and they both end up having to leave their ‘personal eden’ (the bookshop). Aziraphale goes back to Heaven, where he will be miserable whether or not he’s making a difference, and Crowley will be left alone on Earth where he’s miserable and lonely. Left alone on the planet he tried so desperately to save without the one man-shaped being he tried to save it for. UGH.

One small kindness...
Tumblr media
...in one small moment...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
...led to such a marvelous transformation.

And for those who don't get it, I am once again FERAL for how Winter's small act of kindness - seeing Penny as a person when everyone else around them saw a robot and a tool to be used - ultimately led to her becoming the Winter Maiden. All because, as Penny said: "You were my friend." For all her failings, for all her robotic tendencies as an obedient soldier, Winter Schnee did manage to get one thing right. She saw Penny Polendina as a girl with a soul, with just enough humanity to respect as a person instead of a machine, and for that she was given an incredible power.

Luke and Mara’s relationship is SO FUNNY. Literally everyone else is like: “What are you doing? Why are you concerned? Luke, she threatens to kill you every time you speak with each other, please-“
I love the Luke was so concerned when he sensed that Mara’s ship lost power in the second book. Han describes it as Luke acting like Mara is his best friend rather than the woman who has repeatedly threatened him with murder. And after it’s all over, he does save her! He gets them to pick her up and they take her to Coruscant to heal and none of that would have happened without Luke’s influence.
Luke is so fond of Mara, despite having met her all of three months ago. All of their interactions involve murder threats and dangerous situations, literally none of them have been postive interactions, but Luke is so pleased to see her! Just! All the time!
Luke agrees to break Karrde off of Thrawn’s ship because Mara asks (no further requesting necessary). Luke breaks Mara out of her house arrest on Coruscant because he wants her to go to Wayland with them. Luke defends Mara constantly whenever Han (very reasonably) questions whether or not they should trust her. Han and Mara and Luke himself all ask “What if this ends in Luke’s death?” and Luke’s answer is always “¯\ _(ツ)_/¯ Guess I’ll die then.”
(Luke is basically like “If I die, I die. The Force wills it.” I think he and Qui-Gon were soulmates-)
I like that Luke finds out about Mara’s past in the first book but only ever brings it up in the third. And Han is like “She was the EMPEROR’S HAND, and you didn’t think that was worth mentioning???” and Luke just: “The past is in the past.”
Leia and Mara also have a fun relationship though. Leia speaks to Mara for the first time and Mara, right as Leia is leaving, is like “I’m going to kill your brother. Did he tell you that?” and Leia just: “No, he didn’t mention that. May I ask why?”
Leia consistently is like “Well. Luke trusts this person. I trust her too.” Which is almost exactly like Wedge “Luke vouched for them so I trust them with my life” Antilles.
Leia 🤝 Wedge
“If Luke trusts them, I trust them.”
Leia is always like “I know you’ve said you want to kill my brother. But, from what he’s said, you had a lot of opportunities to kill him. And he’s still alive. Are you sure you want to kill him?”
And Mara is just like: “Shut up.”
Han is the only one who is like “I don’t think we should trust this person who wants to kill Luke” and Luke is always like “Why not?”
But really what gets me is the final scene SPOILERS when Luke gives Mara Anakin’s lightsaber. And I know Mara thinks it’s him not-so-subtly telling her that they can both move on from the past, but all I can see it as is Luke seeing Mara like he saw Anakin. He sees them both enslaved to the Emperor and brainwashed and hurting and he ultimately saves both of them. But, Anakin never got to use his lightsaber again, after he came back to the light. So, giving it to Mara, who was in a very similar situation as Vader was, is such a good way to honour Anakin’s memory and every time I think about it - two people manipulated by Palpatine who find their way back after years and years of abuse, both using the same lightsaber at opposite ends of their life - I kind of want to cry.
And maybe I’m looking too deeply into it, but I love this scene. I love Mara asking why Luke is giving it to her and Luke saying “I want you to have it.” I love Anakin’s lightsaber finally being used in the light again, I love it I love it I love it- I’m crying again

benoit blanc was entertained by ransom's bullshit, having the time of his life on that twisty, compelling case, because ransom (though he was the Biggest Asshole) was actually slightly diabolical and only defeated by marta's pure Goodness.
on the other hand, blanc is just Disgusted by the shitheads. they're stupid and sloppy and don't even know how useless they are, but they all think they're as clever as ransom, and so they're taken down by helen's Diabolocality 2.0
