oh i finished the entire scholomance trilogy in the past three days and here are my thoughts (below cut for spoilers)

el. el. el. el. i love you el. el. baby girl. my favorite type of character. i love you

me when a girl is angry and trying and intrinsically Not Good and yet Doing Good Anwyas and also so so so fucking angry: h

i liked orion most in the first book i wont lie to you. i thought thats where he and el were most compelling as a duo wwwww i wish they'd gotten more focus? dev? in the second it wouldve sold me harder on [redacted] at the end u kno

honestly there was more htan one moment where id be reading and the flow was soooo astol/at which. u kno. makes sense. but id be like. oh yeah ive definitely read your got fic before u kno GLKSHDGKSHGD

most noticeable during most of hte orion/el stuff for me wwwww

everything abt the maw mouths was so fucked up and so good and all the concepts in this story were so sexy. a school that kills 75% of kids so that it doesnt have to be 90%. so so good so fun.

i really liked in general the stuff abt balance + the lesser evil discussion and i LOVED the magic system. so fun. intention + flow + balance + belief all coming together like that to make things Real is so good

ok i made it this far w/o doing a bullet point abt it but i think el/liesel. i. i dont have anything else to say but when they were sleeping together in the third book i was like. oh my god

of course i like liesel i like ruthless girls willign to do Anythign. sooooo tasty (chef finger kiss)

my ideal post book 3 fic is 'el on her journey around the world and she and orion are like semi-open rship and she bumps into liesel and accidentaly (lol) sleeps w/her again only they do have some feelings there and somehow it snowballs and then somehow liesel ends up tagging along during the summer w/her and orion and they fall into a weird hinge poly sort of but not quite situation esp bc she's also still definitely fucking alfie too' u kno. this is my ideal

ok i got that out of my system. i like liu a lot too the whole thing w/her in book 3 i was just like. h. liu.......... liu...........

honestly all the charas were really good...... all the main cast was very (chef finger kiss) i liked chloe and liu and aadhya all a lot obvs. girls. liesel...........

orion in general is such a fun character lol. i do wonder if h'ell just be functionally immortal tho u kno. or if not what happens when he dies. you kno

el + her mom were also so good duo. i really liked el+ her fam in general tbh but her mom's everything coming from her constant refusal to put any darkness into the world. soooo good so so good. so fun

book 1 was probably my favorite just bc it was a lot more of the rship dev i really liked if that makes sense. i like when characters are close and can rely on each other obvs but i do like seeing them get there and thats what book 1's focus was on the most so i enjoyed it a lot wwwww idk if i can rank them tho i enjoyed all of them. probably its like 1 > 2=3 for me wwwww

overall just tasty tasty books i looooved el sm shes so good. gorl

GOT PREFERENCES

Do you watch the episodes when they air? usually not being a brit who doesnt have hbo i watch like a day or two later when it airs on sky Atlantic or on now tv the first three i watched on dvd from a friend who had the boxset it was when we were sharing a house walked in the logue one Morning and she watching it and its that bit where the mountain cuts off the horses head and im like what the hell are you watching ?? i just woke up i wasnt expecting violence this early in the morning ? and then sat down and watched it with her and im like and watched the whole rest of season one and im like what the hell is this show ?? ....is there more ?? btw my brother said he got half way through season one and said it was boring im like season ones the best ?? and hes like oh i dont enjoy historical drama im not interested in medieval history and im like face palm he thinks this is historical and he also doesnt like history wtf i mean how am i related to this fool but yeah thats tangent and i told him get to ep nine so he could see ned stark beheading he said maybe but if i agreed to watch stranger things with him lol :/

How often do you rewatch it? Do you rewatch it from season one? ive re watched all the way it through a few times but usually would only watch my fav episodes ive seen the red wedding so many times though because wed always watch it with some friend whos just getting into and hasnt seen that one yet so we can see their reaction

Do you rewatch the previous episode before the next one airs? Not usually on each occasion but my aunt and uncle always do so when i watch with them i do

Do you eat anything while watching? if so, what do you eat? not usually a proper meal but i might have snack like crisps or popcorn unless its a glory scene

One character that everyone seems to like that you don’t care much for hmm cersei ?? and i didnt lime petyr baelish much but he seemed popular at least among my friends but i do agree he shouldnt had a better death scene they took all the cleverness out of him and though i hadnt liked him it was a shame in a way like the couldnt find way him to go down in a clever interesyting way so they had to dumb him right down book pb wouldnt get caught like that people like show euron apparently me hmm not show much to put it nicely also ave mixed feelings about stannis book book and show wise and i like jon but hes not the ultimate hyped favourite like he is with a lot of people and perfer theon to him tbh

Your 3 favourite pairings Throbb theonsa jon ygritte jaime brienne thats four but theres two theons so

Favourite scene: robb getting crowded any scene where theon smiles theons monologue theon and sansa hug jon and sansa arya sansa hug jon and ygritte kissing on the wall jaime jumping to save brienne theons speeches both tyrions speeches both but the one in season one was really funny tyrion dragging the chair across the room when everyone is is science idk that cracked me up bronn duelling for tyrion the one where Catelyn announces to everyone that (she thinks) tyrion tried to kill bran cause that was the first ep id seen thats the bit that got me hooked theon getting back up and fighting that ironborn guy pdrick saving tyrion and i still maintain that viserys had the best death also not to be a basic bitch but that first time dany does her fire thing in season one i was #stunned

One character you wish got more appreciation: theon duh #nomoredickjokes2018 but also meera and jojen too i suppose and shireen and sansa and they could've (shouldve) done more with myrcella and tommen and brienne too was underused and gendry also idk if if i like the way the tried to iron the grey parts out of tyrion and jon and bran i wish they done brans story better and wed have got that tree scene with theon also as a disabled gal certain comments some people make about uselessness of bran sometimes make me uncomfy tbh

Fanfic or nah? i usually only read theon based ones and thats usually just theon robb theon sansa or sometimes theon jeyne p cause i cant do bolton heavy stuff im a whimp but i read the occasion jon / ygritte or jaime / brienne and once i tried theon jon but i wasnt sold soz :/ i read theon ygritte once as well that actualy worked surprising well and theon domeric .. aha thats mine and @blueagia s baby

but i guess id be open to others maybe

Favourite quote: from just the show ? meeras some people will always need help that doesnt mean theyre not worth helping also tyrions death is so final but life is full of possibilities and mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone if it is to keep its edge. That's why I read so much Jon Snow also sansas not a killer .. not yet anyway sansa - or maybe hell give me yours theons sy he is is theon greyjoy again also i like that quote about theons smile but obvi thats not in the show bronns this is bronn son of .. you wouldnt know him just because it was funny

Do you avoid spoilers? : i do because im a blabber if i know id tell everyone omg this happens and that - i dont do on purpose really not with the intention of spoiling it for people i just blurt it out like i ruined he Rains of Castamere for someone once by saying oh is this one where robb dies ? and i didnt realise she hadnt seen it yet and shes like robb dies :( :( and im like oh umm i meant ... rob - ert baratheon obviously ! haha whoops and i told someone else about jofferys death because shed said she seen it all but she said later i wish joffrey would die and i was lil tipsey then so im like .. but he does die ? youve seen it right? in season 4 ? hes poisoned ? at his wedding ? to Margaery?? and shes like ....thanks beth ..... turns outs shed only seen season 1-3 whoops again but hey i was drunk that time so i now avoid spoilers to avoid spoiling people and when i read the books my then housemates told me not to tell them what was different in case they wanted to read the books later on and didnt want me to spill and i did try to keep to it but i blabbed a few things tbh

Favourite house words: We do not sow greyjoys ftw

One character you’d bring back from the dead: ygritte shireen robb maybe catelyn and hoder !!

One character you’d kill, or kill sooner than they were killed balon greyjoy also ramsay but i wouldve done it differently and theon shouldve been there or at least known about it also randyll tarly like fuck that guy ive seen people defending him and im like no offense but you are serious me and a friend had a bet on the boltons i bet against roose dying and he bet against ramsay dying we both lost lmao

Direwolves or dragons? Dragons

Which was more satisfying: Ramsay dying or Joffrey dying? hmm i actually joffrey probably because it was more unexpected i didnt see it coming i didnt think hed die -i wanted ramsay to die and i wanted to like ramsay dying and wished i had liked it more but it wasnt done the way i wanted it and it seemed so obvious like it wasnt a shock like joffrey dying was i think in a way they over did ramster and just ran out f things fro him to do that he hadnt already like i was like hmm sewating nevously what can we do now ...err kill your dad! kill a baby! kill a stark kill .. jon snow ...?? aye fuck it get rid of guy ay

i liked season six better than season 7 or 5 but it made me lol in a way cause it seemed like they went ok ok you didnt like it last time when we killed all the women we heard you! we did ! weve changed things yes so how about this instead ... the woman kill everyone ! yea ? you like that ? we good now ? sweet as ! put more women killing eveyone into season 7 dave we on the money

Wildlings or the dothraki? Wildlings

Favourite lannister? Tyrion but jaimes growing on me

Favourite stark? i think sansa tbh

Would you rather be able to be resurrected anytime, but gain scars and all like Beric, or become a faceless man? Resurrect any time like Beric

Would you rather have the rebellion tv show or the conquest tv show? id pefer Rebellion but id watch a conquest show i think
