my favorite thing from this last episode of the silt verses is the implication (fleeting, but there) that whatever god Hayward and Paige grew in the cursed soil of her father’s farm won’t be constrained by them, and they’re hurtling very quickly towards some undeniable, unintended consequences.

#also I love that hayward continues to be an avoidance-seeking coward regardless of circumstances #he's there with friends! paige has clasped him to her liberal and slightly dysfunctional familial bosom!#and yet the idea that he'd have an honest conversation with her about something he's observed #that's probably important to them and their overall project simply does not occur to him #just don't talk about it. hope that the stink finds someone else to infect.#.....ngl at this point I need paige to suffer for her hubris a little.#carpenter is taking a lifetime of religious angst and abuse out on the countryside; faulkner is gritting his teeth #in order to get through being a pawn in a larger chess game #hayward has basically fallen so far he's groping around in the dark theology of his once-sworn enemies #while the politicians wheel and deal (only to trigger carnage) and at least one of the god-killers falters in their faith #I just also need her to be a little tainted. as a treat for me.#the silt verses #silt verses spoilers
