[october daye] me as Toby does maybe the most recklesdly Hero thing she's done in the whole series: oh it's fine I still have 30% lef- me a moment later, remembering a good part of that will be the end-of-book novella

I AM WORKING UP THE NERVE TO TURN THE PAGE RN JESUSFUCK SEANAN

(this is said as a compliment obvs its so goid as always but jesus)

...also that emote=Tybalt in that moment tbh

WHAT WHAT MOTHERFUCKER WHAT. ..thats it, that is as coherant as I am gonna be about THAT

hollly okay uh time for a 'reread to find the breadcrumbs that lead us here' I guess

oh uh I. have a polyship now thanks Seanan

...did you just casually make it canon

OKAY NOW I'M CRYING

the plot: so hey, SPOILER is back that's sure going to have some ramific- me, for the next year at least: DIANDA HAS TWO HUSBANDS NOW

(srsly tho, it was all great, but that's going to be my takeaway, Dianda has two husbands and might have to throw down with Amandine to keep the second and uhhhh Firstborn or not my money's on the merrow in that one)

...I love how Seanan dialed up the Tam Lin shit and made the Ludiaeg cry and my huge takeaway remains 'TRIAD WITH EVERYONE'S FAVORITE PUNCHY MERMAID...does this mean Simon is now on the 'do not kill or Dianda's rage will take over the series' list?'

(legit hit me last night, remembering Patrick had a publisher mandated 'do not kill on pain of mermaid murder rampage' and. WELL.)
