EXPRESSION | C'est un rossignol d'Arcadie ➽ https://bit.ly/Expression-Rossignol-Arcadie Au propre, c’est un baudet ; au figuré, c’est un ignorant, un chanteur détestable. Les Grecs et les Romains assimilaient les hommes d’une grande ignorance aux ânes d’Arcadie, qu’ils regardaient comme les prototypes de l’espèce
y'all ever just think about how sasha initially wasn't ready to forgive marcy because she couldn't understand why marcy would've been driven to desperate measures and maybe having that refusal because she's not ready recognise herself within marcy's actions
like think about it. marcy tries so hard to keep her friends together by keeping the peace, its about playing peacemaker, its in a sense, pulling the hidden strings behind the scene to keep the play going, but its also not admitting to them how she feels about everything
marcy's whole thing is that she doesn't communciate - in a sense, just like the rest of them. she doesn't communicate how she feels, but because she buries those worries and it doesn't seem Obvious because she's flourishing in amphibia, of course sasha wouldn't see it
sasha has a running theme of only wanting to see what she wants. yeah she starts working on it in season 3a and b because of the TC moment, but she's STILL working on it - she's not going to be immediately better, its something she wants to and continues to work towards
we see it with lysil and angwin - she talks about how they deserve a second chance, but at the time, she's been told why they've been banished, but as far as she's aware - she STILL hasn't been told why marcy wouldn't have trusted or talked to them so isn't ready to forgive
so of course, its only when anne spells it out to her that she only really starts to understand, and when darcy blatantly tells her that can they even consider themselves friends - because really... can she? if she hadnt even realised how she'd neglected marcys feelings
and its only then when sasha gets it. because she'd been in the same position in s2 - she'd been lost and alone, far away from the other two and seeing how they both get on so well together and feeling left out, just like marcy will when she eventually moves and what did she do?
sasha tried in the only way she knew how to, to hold onto her friends, clinging on so tight that the friendships were broken within an iron grip

It's 1930-something and you're Daisy Wells on holiday by the beach. Your best friend has just sided with her boyfriend over you about the best ice cream flavour and she won't stop teasing you about your blushing at the pretty lady who served you said ice cream. The boyfriend's best friend has just beaten you in a sandy game of chess and you are unbelievably furious. To top it all off, all 3 of them tell you passionately about how simply terrible English beaches are, and your fury rises. You don't think you've ever been happier.
When was Alexander’s crush on Hazel was first established?
I think this is slightly up for debate - there’s a period from about JFP-DITS where he thinks he’s in love with Daisy but is also finding Hazel increasingly interesting in a way he hasn’t quite parsed yet. I think he starts more actively crushing on Hazel around the Missing Pearl short story, and then by late autumn 1936, right before they all head to Egypt, he’s all in. But you could argue different timings if you want to! I think he lies to himself for a while.
