The sort of funny thing about both the musical and movie adaptations of The Shamer Chronicles choosing the first and the third books as the ones they want to adapt is that the third book is the one that originally wasn't supposed to exist

Lene Kaaberbøl has said that the series was planned as a trilogy but then Sezuan showed up and she had to do a book more. And while The Serpent's Gift is a lot of people's favourite from the series, it's also arguably the least relevant to the series as a bigger narrative. If you wanted to condense the narrative of all four books into two movies, you'd cut almost everything in The Serpent's Gift. You'd probably take most of your material from the first book and the fourth book.

But because everyone's horny for Sezuan, The Serpent's Gift is the one that gets adapted lol

But the problem is that The Serpent's Gift is very reliant on being the aftermath of The Shamer Signet. Where Dina and especially Davin are mentally is completely dependent on what happened in The Shamer Signet. You can work around that for Dina, but you absolutely can't for Davin.

Frankly, cutting Davin's storyline entirely would make sense as an adaptational choice. He's not a POV character in the first book and his arc is him grappling with toxic masculinity which is compelling but hardly necessary to understand the central story of the books.

The actual core, if you wanted to condense the series as a whole, is Dina and Nico. The most memorable scene is their first meeting and the through line of The Shamer War is Dina trying to understand what's going on with Nico and coming to terms with Nico seeing her as a little sister.

The actual developments of Shamer Signet and Serpent's Gift aren't that significant in a strict "moving the plot forward" sort of sense. They're very significant character arc-wise and they tell us a lot about the cultural atmosphere created by Drakan's reign, but if we're just talking plot developments in a greater sense, both books are really just the heroes hiding from the villains and then fleeing from the villains. The actual pushback only happens in Shamer War.

Anyway! I get why people are enamoured by The Serpent's Gift! It's probably the most morally complex of these children's books. Sezuan is a fascinating character! But it's frankly just an odd choice adaptation-wise, if you know you're going to do The Shamer's Daughter then one (1) sequel, to let that sequel be The Serpent's Gift.

#anyway where's my 5 seasons series adaptation #(1 season for each of the first three books then 2 seasons for the shamer war)#skammerens datter #skammerens børn #the shamer chronicles

I think that Shadow and Bone is unnecessarily complex btw

#I do get that the show is based off the book series #but like in darklina fics. i just want it to be about them. they are the only 2 characters i recognize #basically im not a real fan #if you think about it.. its just star wars but sillier #to me 'the fold took my parents' is the same as 'singing killed by grandma'#shadow and bone #also im only one episode 4 of season 1 and i already know everything that happend with them #anywaysss i love ben barnes #hes my lil meow meow

I get being frustrated at one out of two gay characters getting killed off after one episode but also comparing joffrey to (show) loras who was reduced to a gay joke after s2 then spent s5-6 getting hatecrimed is um. Maybe not the best idea lol

#.txt #hotd #hotd spoilers #'in game of thrones the gay characters got arcs!1!!!1!' yea about being tortured for gay crimes lol #if you wanna compare him to book loras sure. but they were explicitly talking about the show ver #i get that even in the show he had more screentime but idk i feel like what happens later kinda nullifies that #but also you gotta consider the pacing is completely different #like imagine if got s1 was like. bobby's rebellion -> start of the war of the 5 dudes #ok that wouldnt really affect loras but you get what i mean #tbh that mught be my biggest gripe with hotd. which isn't really a gripe more of a 'man i wish they had more time'#like the pacing doesn't really feel rushed but i like these characters and wish i could see more of them you know #imagine a whole season pre timeskip. but also i need to see my bestie aemond rn so im not complaining lol #all the time jumps do end up kinda sideling a bunch of characters tho which is. unfortunate #again you can have issuses with that just. maybe don't use got as the good example #man this post is funni without hot d context lol. joffrey baratheon was bury your gays😔 olenna homophobic hag #oh no im turning into a hotd discourse blog

Bon matin~♪(or it will be, by the time you should see this!) I have a few questions to ask!

What is your least favourite colour?

Were there any book series you really liked as a child?

Do you dislike any twst characters (other than the incompetent crow, obviously)

And what is your favourite way to eat potatoes? I think this says a lot about a person ^w^

I hope you have a lovely, lovely day!

Da questions! [I just woke up like 40 minutes ago]

What is your least favourite colour?

Neon yellow, it hurts my eyes. Really, a lot of neon colours, but only if it's really large; it's just an eye strain.

Were there any book series you really liked as a child?

PERCY JACKSON! Was and still am obsessed with them. That though is more so the tween years than proper child.

But when I was a kid? I forget the exact title of the books but it was something like, Did You Know? and I had like every single one; one on plants, one on the ocean, history [I knew about the Rose War when I was like 6]. There was another series, which I also forget the name of, but it was a picture/chapter book on historical figures; my favourite ones were Marie Currie, Amelia Earheart, Harriet Tubman, and Hans Christian Anderson [also read around the same time as the other books]. I think they were all made in the '90s though, idk, they've been lost to time.

Do you dislike any twst characters (other than the incompetent crow, obviously)

For no reason? Neige; I don't trust him. For reasons? Rollo; he's based on a character whom I hate and I have a history with. Also, his haircut is worse than Rook's.

And what is your favourite way to eat potatoes? I think this says a lot about a person ^w^

All potato is good potato, it really depends on my mood...

SCALLOPED THE CHEESEY KIND I EAT THAT SHIT RIGHT UP!

#krenenbaker!#ask games but make it free form #only exception to the neon rule is my Every Child Matters shirt; i wear that on July 1; September 30; and during any 'pro' colonization day #i miss those old books; and definitely a sign that i'm somewhere on the spectrum; i knew about the rose wars when i was like 6 #i don't like rollo because his character actively tried to kill my ancestors; i got ancestral beef and religious trauma from him #all potato is good potato #<- main thing is moisture content and seasoning; i don't like dry or bland potatoes

anyways my 2 cents notice how dsmp started to get uh. bad. when suddenly c!dream became a, um, quote unquote "fleshed out character" and not just. "hey this guy is fucked up and straight up evil even if some people that have sided with him are morally grey." just my thoughts tho

#dsmp critical #the last stream I watched live was when wilbur started his apology tour #recently started watching the rest of THOSE vods. highly unlikely i will watch anything that came after #the characters exist in my brain now thanks they're mine #i could go on for hours abt how shit things got after. season 1 tbh but even moreso after s2 #l'manburg-pogtopia era and new l'manburg-final disc war era btw #not. the last 2.5 years and then the server reset. thats not what i mean by season 2 #in case it wasnt clear #revival book was a stupid way to have dream's character stay on the server. tommy didn't need to die in the prison #the only character other than him that got revived was wilbur. and there was already setup for phil & eret figuring out how to revive him.#PERSONALLY i think that would have been so much more interesting #oh my god im writing an essay in the tags #moss rambles

If no one says it I will-

#the mandalorian season 3 doesnt look appealing at all #it has already felt so lacklustre from somewhere mid s2 with all these cameos and trying to tie it to the main plot #its just. trying too hard. giving too many big shots who already had their time to shine even more time #i can already see them sidelining din in his own show yet again #and the interactions?? are just?? if it were not a show i was so interested in it would be as forgettable as an action movie trailer #the one you see in the cinemas and immediately forget #like bro. youre fuckin DISNEY you have the money for a good show #there is a reason why season 1 was the best one and worked beautifully #because it was BASED on star wars and not trying to BE star wars #its a star wars story not a main plot #thats the whole charm about the show #now its gone!! poof!! away!! off it fucks!!#i was already immensely disappointed with how they handled book of boba fett and the din storyline within #and lemme tell you it does not spark joy. none of this sparks joy. it had so much potential and its all????? going down the drain?????????#anyways i hate it here #siya speaks #the mandalorian
