I Meant It For Saint Valentine’s Day, Cause What Could Be Better For SVD Then A Deja Moo.

I love reading the Septimus Heap books because the writing style is hilarious. The author goes off on paragraphs-long tangents about characters that aren’t even remotely important to the plot! Funny things happen like:

The Dragon Boat lands in the River safely (a very good thing, extremely important to the main plot)

The author (paraphrased): And no one was around to see it, except for 4 old fishermen who are known for telling tall tales, so when they went to the tavern for fishermen (because that exists apparently), nobody believed them. They even convinced themselves that they were just exaggerating, and they didn’t see a dragon in the shape of a boat land in the river. Anyway, back to the actual plot…

Guillermo del Toro’s last five films have been:

1. A dark fairy tale as a metaphor for the effects of war on children, set in the midst of the Spanish Civil War 2. A superhero movie that features a war between mankind and magical creatures 3. An action movie where the heroes have to share their minds and bond emotionally so they can punch aliens from the sea better. Also Charlie Day is a scientist. 4. Basically what would happen if all three Bronte sisters got hammered and wrote a book with Lord Byron. and 5. An adorable woman falls in love with a fish man. Not a merman. A FISH MAN.

No one in Hollywood is having more fun.

No one asked for this, but...

This man growls:

Deep and guttural, it comes from the back of his throat and works it's way up. His entire chest rumbles, and his body tenses, his teeth bared at the one who angered him or challenged. Before stalking forward.

This man, hisses:

Like a cat or a snake, wide mouthed and incisors flashing. His torso leans forward, while his feet stay planted. He'll smile after, and his quary gains the faint sense that if he had the chance, he would go for the neck.

Thinkin' about his long ass fingers 🤤

 “Are you…ill?” Eli blurted out in disbelief. It was just so out of character for the composed, calm Chiss. But, he supposed, they weren’t actually creatures out of legend. Just another normal species. Who got sick. And needed medical care. Oh, gods.

 “I am fine,” Thrawn said, voice muffled from under the blankets. If they hadn’t known each other for the past few weeks, lived together — if Eli hadn’t been studying Thrawn’s every expression for days — Eli would have bought it.
