Fanfiction Rec List! If you saw my recs at The Other Place then you'll see a lot of duplicates. They are rated pg-13 or below unless stated otherwise, because I grow tired of the fanfic=porn false narrative. Multi fandom. 1-2 a day until I catch up, then will slow down.
I have started the season 3 finale of Wheel of Time three times. I have jot made npast the recap. When I watch it, it will be over for YEARS and so I'm...saving it for a special occasion? I guess?

I just can't watch it. It's over when I watch it. I don't understand me either.

Siuan and Moiraine ripped my heart straight out of my chest in this episode, btw. And now I have to watch it again.

"Until we get it right." GUH. Just kill me.

Season 3 Ep5:
I can't believe that I say this after episode 4 but.. Episode 5 was perfect and it's my favourite so far.
I absolutely loved the weaves. The quality was stunning, I was in awe.

Loki is going to in Avengers Doomsday and Ep 5 of Wheel of Time is fantastic and had so many things I could talk about it all day and Tom Hiddleston is going to be Loki again and...and if I don't calm down & get off the internet for a while I'm not going to get anything done. Hate being a grownup.

I loved the expressions on Nynaeve's face when talking to the seafolk. You can *see* her figuring out her block.

Also, "There are many ways to be a woman."

Episode 5 is my favorite S03 episode so far. A great balance between characters, good movement forward, depth, emotion, character development, and a sprinkling of action. Shohreh Aghdashloo is absolute perfection as Elaida.

I've been in such a horrible mood the last few days I actually went over to The Other Place and poked that bear. As sort of a "negativity vent", lol.

And suddenly the whole world is a happy shiny place again. Compared to there, anywhere would be.

My #TheWheelOfTime reread has been interrupted by my library book club read (egads! I'm behind!) but I've not abandoned it. TGH will resume after this month's book club meet up!

Fanfic recs are also coming soon. How dare they hold my pay hostage and force me to work a day job! I have things to do!

S03E04 of Wheel of Time is excellent. Could gush forever drooling over this bit and that bit, but I'm really most impressed by the fact that nothing in the episode required "doing the reading". That's quite the accomplishment.

Josha Stradowski's performance really shined here. Well done.

My most controversial Wheel of Time opinion:

It's official. I like the show better than the books.

This may change, of course, but I kind of doubt that.

Ihvon being the Warder who died was inevitable when they made it clear he was the center of their relationship. "I fell in love with a man and he fell in love with an Aes Sedai". An amplifying loop of grief and resentment inside a bond could drive one to madness - or terrible acts. #WoTShowSpoilers

Nynaeve is hampered by a block for many reasons, not the least of which is that she is so powerful they have to limit her so she doesn't just overpower everyone and win. 😀 #WoTSkies

I want someone to write a fanfic that is just Ryma's Story. It occurred off-screen and her Warder was lost. Her escape and journey back to the White Tower is an open door that someone MUST walk through. Donit fornthe world. Do it for The Light. #WoTSkies #WoTShowSpoilers

When people ask me how I feel about season 3 of #TheWheelofTime
March 14, 2025 at 4:12 PM
I meant to talk about #TheWheelOfTime as I watched but I was immediately drawn in and didn't even realize time was passing until I'd finished all 3 episodes.

Too much to talk about, but never enough to satisfy my cravings. Excellent all around. Can't wait for more.
March 14, 2025 at 4:21 PM
I'm not reading any of the #TheWheelOfTime season reviews (yet) or watching any more clips. Love that they're out there, but I'm excited enough! The rest I want to see in context.

Two days. I can wait two days. I can! (I probably won't)
March 11, 2025 at 1:39 PM
I have been informed that I have a double shift on Wheel of Time Day.

Because that's just how life works for me. Always has, likely always will.

Continuing my Wheel of Time re-read with The Great Hunt. This one is taking me a while. It seems like I spend two paragraphs with a character I like and then chapters on end with - the other character. Getting there, though!

Hello Selene. I have never seen a more obvious villain!

The more I think about it, the more I think aging up these characters is probably the most important decision they made for the Wheel of Time adaptation.

Wait, That was the last time the group will all be together like that until the last battle! I know there’s moment when the boys are back together and the girls together! But not all EF5+ gang!!! Unless the show finds away.

One of the things that was always going to be very difficult is portraying the bond between Aes Sedai and Warder in a visual medium. The details have to be verbalized, in a way that feels natural to the world.
March 9, 2025 at 2:25 PM
Egwene was never going to be a novice again. There's no way she would willingly put herself in a subservient position at the White Tower - the place she felt safe until she was betrayed, kidnapped, and sold. They acknowledge all the characters' trauma.
