me while reading chalice of the gods: oh Iris and her daughter watch Wandavision together, right, because it’s a Disney book. Is there any specific reason why he chose that one?
me after finishing the book: because the themes in the show broadly match the ones in the book, good job Rick

you know what hill i'll die on? terzo is not the sluttiest emeritus
I mean sure, he's the most dramatic and the most outspoken about sex, and he gave us Mummy Dust which is its own discussion-- but I sincerely don't see him, in his private life, being so promiscuous. Like out of all of them, I'm the most certain Terzo would be either monogamous or have a few regular partners at most, but I don't think he'd be big on casual flings. Frankly I don't even see him having sex that much at this point, he seems more attached to it as a concept than an actual activity he regularly engages in.
You know who's the inverse of that, though? The one Tobias himself calls a pervert? Secondo. There's your whore. I know he looks big and mean and authoritary but let's be honest, half of Infestissumam is about ritual sex and he's out in Vegas on the regular with more women than he can reliably satisfy. He says it himself that he became Papa because "he likes a sexy beat". THERE'S THE EMERITUS WHORE, AND I'M CERTAIN OF IT

Fuck the timeline, everyone please consider an au where the Knight of Dawn narrowly escapes from a fight that almost kills him and as he's limping through a forest to find somewhere to hide and recover, the woodland creatures find him and lead him somewhere. He follows, assuming they're leading him somewhere safe, but before he can reach it he collapses from his injuries. As his consciousness begins to fade, he sees Princess Meleanor looking down at him and he isn't surprised that she'd been waiting for his end, waiting for him to join her in the Underworld where he'd sent her.
Later in the evening, Lilia Vanrouge is startled by the door to his quiet little cottage bursting open. His prince and pupils have returned... and they have dragged the injured Knight of Dawn back with them. Silver runs up to Lilia and begs "Papa" to help the poor injured man they'd found in the woods, completely oblivious to how Lilia's blood chills and his mouth goes dry because his son this human child had so cluelessly brought an old enemy into their home who also happens to be his father.

I love young James but nothing turns me on like current James 😭 i love his grey hair and his tattoos. He is the perfect mix of a gentleman and a bad boy like his demeanor and stance is so badass but his eyes are so kind and happy which you don’t see in his younger self.
FR FR.

And so here I stand, burning.
a message from Papa Emeritus the third
__________________________
Note : below you find, in honor of today's significance, a story , a shared memory , a poem of the end of meliora. Please proceed with caution as it is very heavy to read and discusses death. Please also be respectful was it was a very dark moment. Please stay safe, ok?
-Terzo
I was met with silence and there was pain flaring up. Soon I would end up on the hill of your failed ones soon I would end up like them. I would too be replaced. Nobody cares beyond that. You don't care about me. To you I am rather a failure than a man. I am nothing but a product to you. And you stare at me. Sinister.
So here I stand. Before you, as I felt nothing but the burning agony run through my veins. I can't even scream the pain as I try to word how I feel betrayed, how I feel scared. How I feel betrayed.
I ask you
Why. Why are you doing this to me. What did I do to deserve this.
Oh mother, why do you hate me. Wasn't I your golden child. Why have you forsaken me. Where's your temper of determination you had at my arrival.
I remember how my brother congratulated me, even if he was a little bit upset that he wasn't in position anymore after that.
Would he have willed to let me become Papa? How much was it in his knowledge that one that reaches the top, has faced death as punishment.
" Enjoy it, but not too much."
The poison wasn't the problem. Getting dragged away wasn't the problem. It was the betrayal. It was getting torn away from my loved ones. From Alpha. From Omega. Knowing all my spoken words are a thing of the past now. Knowing I can't even see what would come after me. You betrayed me, mother. How shall I ever forgive you for that.
And why would you, think to blame it on Copia? Why would you put him through all of this. Why did you make him witness this destruction of an era, why did you drag him in this. Why did you drag Primo and Secondo along with me? So many undeserving ones just for one problem.
I hope you know that it hurts. I hope you know that many people have witnessed it and will secretly not forgive this. You tell that your business is not a playground, then why would do you play with people like toys and put them away if no longer of interest.
Weaving the lies, weaving the pain. But all they know is that you were the one to put an end to this. Hopefully, you are out there aware of the shadows looming over you and the pain you've caused is permanent.
The poison in my veins has turned into a different kind. It turned into acid fueled by bitterness and grief.
