#I just think it's neat that her rage would have been fueled by Cal's death

Once again I am screaming and crawling up the walls like Evil Dead over the fact that all the electricons grabbed onto Mare in Harbor Bay when she saw Cal’s body and the healer trying to resuscitate him.

Like everyone around her (except for her) knew her dumb ass was so in love with him that if he died she was going to go off like a fucking bomb and kill all of them and to avoid that they literally were fully prepared to either knock her out with their own ability or contain hers as much as possible.

Which just leads me to believe that if he had died, like if the healer had failed and he had died on the sand Mare would have turned immediately to Iris’s war ship and we would have gotten the duel of the fucking century. Because Iris would have been fighting to just survive and Mare would have been blindly fighting to kill at all costs in as painful of a manner as possible. And she would have taken so many lakelanders and nortian soldiers with her. So tbh, if Dane/the Scarlet Guard was smart, they would have let Cal die in that moment and they could have ended the whole thing in Harbor Bay.

#Just thoughts #red queen #glass sword #kings cage #war storm #war storm spoilers #mare barrow #listen she would have gone full OP boss mode #like... the choir version of her theme playing in the background as she goes after Iris OP boss mode #boss room music would have started playing #and Iris would have started sweating #you cannot deny it #I just think it's neat that her rage would have been fueled by Cal's death #like it's just so them #Cal: I would die for you #mare: I would kill for you #like that is their relationship in a nut shell #I think about this moment all the time #like I can see it on a screen in my mind #like silence with just Mare's heartbeat as she slowly sinks to her knees with the electricons just out of focus behind her grabbing on #and then all the sound comes back right after we see Cal inhale but the sound is Mare's inhale #its a jarring change from peaceful silence of Mare's slow and steady heartbeat as she watches the healer try to resuscitate him to SOUND #there can be muffled sounds around her while she watching #as a treat #I just think film is neat #it's my film degree speaking right there
