I'm thinking about Isobel who came back from the dead a hundred years later, who came back to the lands cursed and her father fallen into madness.
Who eminates a barely indistinguishable whiff of rot and Myrkul's power. Who was touched by the forces so repulsing she wishes she has never come back.
And who still has Moonmaiden's favor and her blessing.
Like by all means Selûne had every right to punish Isobel for her father's sins, esp considering what Isobel is, undeniably, the cause of Ketheric turning into the villain he became. Or rather, her death is.
Instead Selûne grants her enough power to battle the curse and create a small safe harbor amidst darkness. More power than the most have, as priest of Selune!Tav might comment.
Instead Selûne favors her, loves her.
Isobel is the indirect reason Aylin is enslaved and the lands are dying under the curse, and Selûne never turns her back on her.
Idk it just makes me emotional

so netflix have just gone ahead and confirmed their absolutely ridiculous aversion to letting interesting, creative, original shows carry on past the first season.
what they've just done is dug their own grave, and started a vicious cycle whereby people will be much, much more hesitant to watch new shows because there is no guarantee (hell, it's in fact unlikely) that it will get renewed and these stories will come to completion or get to continue past the limitations of a single series.
this reluctance will lead to lower viewing numbers, ones that, say, will not "meet the threshold to greenlight a second season". and on those grounds they won't renew the shows, meaning they'll have to either lower said threshold, or netflix will become nothing more than a wasteland of discarded shows that had the potential to be so much more.
for a streaming service that continues to lose hundreds of thousands of subscribers in each quarter, and when it comes to changing this claims to believe "the key is pleasing members", they are doing an atrocious job of pleasing members who have voiced their support for certain shows again, and again, only to be faced with more disappointment.

welp, i tested positive for covid this morning, lmao. i had to cancel class tomorrow.
hopefully i can gather the energy to record a little lecture or something so that students get some of the background they're hoping for (basically this week was the "how to read middle english" primer/refresher course). overall it's fairly mild, so as long as i don't have a fever on friday, i'm going to go to class (masked, of course) and we can talk about the poems i'm having them read. i'm gonna struggle to be heard through the mask, but alas. we'll have to make do.
other than that, i have two students from my summer course who didn't submit their work by the extended deadline (last friday), which was the very last day i'm technically allowed to accept late work. one of them might?? maybe???? be submitting something by tonight?? she emailed at like 3 in the morning on saturday asking for a couple of extra days. i answered yesterday telling her that if she got something to me by 10pm tonight, then i would make it work (grades are due tomorrow lol), but if not, then she would have to file a petition for a term work extension with the registrar. the other one is... i think?? in the process of submitting such a petition.
i'm just here sitting on my couch surrounded by tissues and trying to get some of my shit together, lol.

We're really close to the actual turning point, and I'm genuinely excited!
