Abbaetha: did you suppose there could be only one Parsnip?

Screenwriters: “Oh yeah, nothing so satisfying as sticking your new draft’s landing!”

Producers:

My sibling and a work friend would buy used pulp romances and paste each others’ faces into the various characters and scatter them about the office. It was genius.

Cool!

NEVER sleep on a corvid.

I meant the seals, but no reason to cut the scientists out of the fun.

Are they still snorting eels?

🤣🤣🤣🤣

I didn’t love that aspect of either series, for the reason you articulate. I was more comfortable with the astrology in Lymond because *they* would have believed but I did not love the divining in Niccolò because it drove the plot beyond what the characters could have made happen themselves.

Thank you!

I’m so sorry.
