Let's talk about the show so far (Episode 1)
Allow me to preface this by saying I went into this not expecting it to be exactly like the books; if it were I'm relatively sure that there is a lot of points from the books that would absolutely not fly in the 2020s like they did in the late 2000s-2010s.
I'm not going to lie, I was very confused about what was going on, why Lissa's parents and brother were still alive, and why Tatiana was not queen. That said, I was not disappointed in the way everything panned out. I have said from day one that I had no doubt that Sisi and Daniela would do an amazing job, and they are proving my right at scene one.
I appreciate the change in roles for a majority of the characters, and the change from running away from the school to just leaving the grounds and staying out too late accidentally. I was a little iffy on it, if not kind of disappointed they didn't do it how it was originally, but one twitter post pointed out that the scene was pretty homoerotic and people would ship them a lot (which...there is nothing wrong it; I ship them, but I acknowledge that they are two heterosexual women as far as we know). On top of that, the show would have gotten accused of queerbaiting which wouldn't be the case in my personal opinion.
That said; Sisi is black. Daniela is Venezuelan. Andre is Asian. The fact that people need to be told to get over it is excruciatingly upsetting. Not to mention that this is a canon depiction of Rose Hathaway (source: Vampire Academy Graphic Novel):
Tumblr media
In the second chapter of the first book, Rose even narrates that she's been described as a, "semi-exotic desert princess." Despite how much that aged like milk, it is safe to say that Rose has tanned skin at the very least just like her father (who appears in the fourth book).
So, yeah, Sisi is Rose Hathaway. Get over it.
Lissa's flashback and panic attack upon hearing Victor repeat the words that Andre (her brother) said right before the accident gave me chills, and was honestly very believable. Her new relationship with Christian is wholesome to say the least, and their quick friendship came so organically.
I'm not entirely sure how I feel about Mason and Rose's relationship, since Rose only really saw him as a friend and as far as I remember their relationship wasn't like how it is in the show, but again, this isn't the books. Despite that, I love their rivalry and Rose's determination to be number one to seal her spot as Lissa's guardian when she graduates, especially now that it's not longer a guarantee with Andre being deceased and he was their key. Her friendship to Lissa is organic and loving, almost sisterly.
Alberta is chef's kiss.
One thing that has lead true so far is how everything leads to Andre; Mia, Lissa and Rose, the crown, everything. Andre's death is still significant in the show as it was in the book, and it sparks joy.
The note that I want to leave off on is I headcanon that Sonya is autistic. Why? Because my autistic ass says so. The way she is around people vs. birds, her special interests, the way Mia talks about her and her "quirks," it all felt too real to me. Jonette responding to a tweet I made also helped with this headcanon and she was so sweet with her response and said that she loved how people could relate to Sonya in this way. Sonya is quickly becoming my favorite show character and I'm looking forward to seeing more of her.

i am formally submitting st. Vladimir because thats who my dad is named after (his family isnt catholic theyre just like that)
OKAY ANON I was going to say he's not eligible since he's pre-schism and our bracket has already begun, but St Vladimir was the grandson of St Olga of Kiev, and since I accidentally put her in the post-schism list, he'll join her there too - but he'll need a LOT of votes to make it to the bracket!!
send propaganda for him to make it to the bracket!!!

So I get WHY they COULDN'T have Alia as in the book....
A toddler whose consciousness had been awakened in the womb as a Reverend Mother and a die-hard Fremen who supported her brother wholeheartedly...
But I wish we had.
I'll admit I was disappointed that it was Paul who killed the Baron. The whole scene of Alia chatting with the Emperor then mocking the Reverend Mother is fantastic.

Iran is an ally of Russia and Iran is the main backer of Hamas. So it's certainly possible that there may have been some nudges and winks from Moscow which led to the October 7th terror attacks which set off the Gaza-Israel war.
Nobody gains more from that war than Putin whose atrocities in Ukraine get far less attention than before because of war in the Middle East.
In any case, if Putin wishes to compare himself to Napoleon, we should not stand in his way!
