Final Scythe Thoughts

Chapter 28 - Chapter 40

I swear to god Goddard is a psychopath or something. Like what is his deal?

BRO WHAT?! Not her being accused of murdering Faraday

Fine maybe this Thunderhead isn’t so bad but I’m not letting my guard down

Omg what if the Thunderhead is helping take down the scythedom being all concerned and what not so it could fully take over the world?

If the Thunderhead happens to be the real villain than I told you so

Curie and Faradays love story, it’s so cutee

Love Scythe Possuelo, as much as I would love a scythe

HES ALIVE?! Ugh I should’ve known

Rowan cutting out Goddard head? As he should, I’m so proud of him MY BOY!

Rowan ready to take out anyone to tried to glean Citra >>

Bet she has a better plan than fighting her way out but love that he’s so protective

My heart is pounding so fast, I hope they find a way around this. I wanna I know they will cuz there are two more books

Not Rowan being in awe of Citra when he’s about to be killed by her

Citra is so smart I love it

Did they just confess their love for each other so casually?

And Rowan becoming a rogue scythe? As he should

Highlights

it's always "witcher can i have book recs??" and never "here are some book recs"

SO GIVE ME BOOK RECS IN THE COMMENTS ITS ONLY FAIR 🫵

How do I explain that I absolutely love my parents and they are far from being toxic but I can't remember the last time I felt appreciated or loved by them. I love that they give me so much freedom and liberty but hate that always makes me feel like I owe them for such treatment. They buy me anything I want but makes me feel worthless if I don't get good grades. I can't sit to just talk with them without having my grades dragged into it

I was crying when I saw this, the way Jesper smirks with no remorse, or the way Nikolai looks when he shoots her like he’s finally taking his revenge. They way the celebrated, especially Nadia and Adrik, LIKE THOSE ARE YOUR COMRADES, PEOPLE WHO LIVED AND EAT WITH. And not a single tear. And not a look of remorse that they just killed people in cold blood. Yeah sure it’s war but even soldiers get shaken up when they killed someone, right? And these were people they knew

They never try to understand it from their point view either

I get fruszi was an annoying cartoonish villain's right hand kind of character but I'm ngl her death felt so unnecessarily violent and Jesper smirking like that is so...

maybe I'm wrong but wasn't this girl one of the many grisha who escaped and reached the darkling for refuge? Rooting for the "good" side has never been so hard for me 😭

Jacks and the Mirth Stone

**TBONA SPOILERS**

So we all know the mirth stone was inside the clock of The Hollow, right? And while Evangeline was there, she was having dreams of Chaos/Castor and LaLa, both warning her that she wasn’t safe with Jacks.

“You’ve been missing for weeks, Evangeline. We all thought you were dead until Jacks appeared a few days ago. I think he has the mirth stone and it’s clouding his judgement.”

They assumed he had the mirth stone — probably because of his unwillingness to bring Evangeline back, or tell them where she was. To keep her to himself, and not let her go. Maybe even because he seemed happy with her.

But Jacks didn’t have the mirth stone when he saw Chaos and LaLa. He wasn’t under its influence then, because it would’ve been in the clock, back at The Hollow, the whole time. It clearly wasn’t the mirth stone that made him keep Evangeline in The Hollow either, because while he was gone, and not feeling its effects, he still felt for her, and he came back. It seemed like it was only her rejection, when she told him nothing between them had been real, that triggered the journey back to Wolf Hall. Because he always knew exactly what he felt and what was real, even while he was away.

Chaos and LaLa thought THAT was the stone, but all they saw was his feelings for Evangeline, and he just hadn’t wanted to give her up.
