Finnick and his sweet girl before they broke up…imagine them on the beach…laying in the sand, at some point she’s laying in his lap, he’s laying in hers. When he sees her in a swim suit for the first time he’s so flustered cause despite everything he’s a teenage boy or liked a girl…
-🌾anon
totally the type of guy to get all blushy and nervous when he sees her in a swimsuit because she's so pretty and he's just obsessed with her. and she's definitely tease him for it even though she's really stunned because he's drop dead gorgeous and her heart is racing nonstop. and at very least there are many many beach makeout sessions on his lap

so as a biology major, here's some things i've been chewing on after reading the unwanted guest. this post is brought to you by the part of my brain that saw the 7th's hereditary blood cancer and thought ok but what KIND of cancer is that.
the phrasing of "permeability of the soul" makes me think of semipermeable membranes and diffusion. diffusion is a passive process -- our molecules, when left to their own devices, want to be everywhere because entropy, but the semipermeable membranes that make up cells organelles etc make life possible by keeping things organized. this dividing & filtering process is required to keep things in place. with me so far?
to me, this concept of permeability emphasizes that souls are objects with boundaries. there's a line somewhere, however blurry (clearly very very blurry) or porous, that divides self & other, and! and!! that line only exists because it is somehow constructed, maintained, enforced. see: ianthe working so hard to convince herself/pal/the hypothetical audience of this play she's putting on that she's just ianthe with no babs mixed in. or john's ritual of retelling his story to alecto/harrow in NTN. something something being the unreliable narrator of your own identity.
palamedes calls the process that merges him and camilla to give us paul grand lysis vs. the "petty", incomplete lysis of eightfold word lyctorhood. lysis = the disintegration of a cell by rupture of the cell wall or membrane. the boundaries of their souls are sliced open so their contents can be poured out & mixed together to make someone new. but even in conventional lyctorhood, there's some kind of exchange of whatever material makes up the soul between cavalier & necromancer. as our boy tells ianthe at the end of the unwanted guest,
This is the real truth of Lyctorhood, Ianthe--it's not some bloodless swapping-out of batteries. It's grafting; transplantation. When you absorbed Naberius Tern's soul, you didn't swallow a diamond. You swallowed a piece of meat...and the longer you digest that meat, the more its proteins and lipids and molecules mix in with yours, until you can't tell them apart anymore.
idk where i'm even going with all of this, i'm just rotating it in my head, but:
tamsyn muir is so precise with her necromancy jargon & anatomical terms that i feel like there's definitely meaning to be found in the imagery here. there is poetry in biology, the universe is made of stories not of atoms, etc etc
it turns out lysis is also the title of a dialogue of plato on "the true nature of loving friendship," so if any classics enjoyers have thoughts on that connection i would love to hear them!
if lyctorhood is transplantation, is it possible for that transplant to be rejected? can the graft refuse to take?
souls are contained within their edges not unlike how a cell membrane contains its cytoplasm. or how a capri sun pouch contains its juice. and lyctors slurp that shit up and digest it baby
why choose to link the soul so closely with water? (the river, bubbles, currents & waves in the river, nona saying the water of the river "doesn't want to touch us.") contents of souls = liquid in the same way that the river is a liquid??? the river = spirit version of the primordial soup???
dulcinea refers to the river having two shores, not just a generic "shore", so it sounds like they're different in some meaningful way. but that may be conditional on what happens in alecto ("if this ends well you'll find that out")? is the point of the river the river itself, or is the point of the river to separate those two places?

sabrina carpenter's espresso has been stuck in my head all week and i can't help but imagine finnick and his sweet girl when i think about it.
"now he's thinking bout me every night oh is it that sweet? i guess so" 😭😭😭 like he is genuinely crazy about her
"oh he looks so cute wrapped around my finger" no cause finnick is obsessed with his sweet girl, he worships the ground she walks on... he is like a dog on a leash tbh
honestly like every lyric. she wrote this for them i fear
-🐚
miss sabrina carpenter literally read the lakes and wrote this song for them, I don't make the rules I just acknowledge the truth
finnick is very much a dog on a leash for his sweet girl, with his big puppy dog eyes, he's so excited to see her, protective, he just wants to lay on her lap while she plays with his hair. and she's his espresso for real. ❤️
