Exiled - While I would concur with everything Lynxie just said, from a sheer "woah" perspective I have to say the waterfall / at night. Like, the glowing, singing, neon bio-luminescent forest - THELEOPARD - and the like, huge ass waterfall that also happened to have something that managed to make prim Lady Jane say the word "tit" - this place was just so deep. Also it probably affects me deeply that you had a puzzle there. I was happy. :) It also was probably our first real glimpse at how this island can be a refugee idyllic location, none of the scary harsh death stuff. [Look I like pretty that can't be a surprise I weaponized fucking Tinkerbell lmao.]

Treasures of Atlantis fucksomanyITSFUCKINGATLANTIS. I mean my chars are like 'hello TREASURE ROOM' and then Eliza's like /shrug nbd, but...tbh I think the temples were my favorite straight up locale. First off,right after they find out Apollo is a god it's like, oh hello giant statue of my boyfriend, not your best likeness #darrell. That's just funny. But also the hot springs and ruins provided this perfect liminal space feel and you know, perfect background for danilie sexy times. Also, don't piss off the gods, geesh.

Crisis of Conscience Shout out to Diamond Drift, and the fact two ships had sexy times there. DIAMOND FOREST ANGELA/CHARLES AND SIEDORA WEDDING PROPOSALS OK

Favorite Locale

Exiled: my pick is the skull caverns. I LOVE the way it was set up and how it just got creepier and creepier. i loved the cave drawings too and how it turned out it was all part of the elaborate setup. AND THE GLOWY BLUE WATER WITH THE SARCOPHAGUS. there was so much and i wish i had gotten to let my chars explore there more.

Crisis of Conscience: my pick is eden's entry. it just looked so idyllic and pretty, but there was THE GATE. and that's where we found the rune crossword. And it's apparently the only food source of the entire plot lmfao. i just liked the image of the lake and how deceptively quiet and pretty it was in the middle of all the scary faerie stuff.

Treasure of Atlantis: my fave was the temple (yes, apollo, that's in SPITE of the danilie). because i had a lot of fun trying to come up with ways the gods would punish them for removing the offerings.

The Favorite Moments (Crack-Ships)

Fluff

Irene / Genevieve:
- it was definitely the moment in the treasure room that Irene was like "Gold, treasure, trinkets - pft. GEN. MYLOVE."

Olivier / Helena :
- "This is what will happen," Helena turned to look at him.

"I'm going to fuck you in this same spot. I am going to fuck you until this spot becomes mine. Until you cannot remember a single sight, taste, or touch that is not mine. I am going to fuck you until you cannot remember Daniella's name, until all you can see, think of, remember is me. You will not speak unless it is to say my name, you will not move unless I specify it."

Sienna / Pandora:
"Sienna was going to be her partner in everything...."


Angst

Irene / Genevieve: Your Genevieve, Orion said, as if the one currently in Irene's arms wasn't hers. As if there could ever exist a time when Genevieve did not belong to her and she to Gen. Irene tried to explain this to Gen with a look, but there was little time. Genevieve was a goddess, how was time a problem?

Olivier / Helena: But then his fiance was at his side and he was exhaling in relief, in delight, in fear. She looked furious. There was fear there in her eyes -- genuine concern as his blood started spilling, squirting out of his wretched, busted leg. He groaned. And then he curled into her, tears on his cheeks, her hand - her blood - in his mouth and he swallowed with a desperate, hungry thirst.

And cried.

The more he swallowed, the more he realized his behavior the last day - especially the last hour. What had been going through his mind: the murder, the blood lust, the casual violence, the fact he was disappointed when one of her subjects had survived. And to think she was still here, nursing him back to health.

"I'm sorry," he whispered into her elbow.


Sienna / Pandora:"Thank you," she murmured pulling Sienna into a kiss, "you saved my life."

Favorite Moments (Platonic)


(Family)
Mitchell / Alec - "If he didn't already look like the spitting image of my older brother, that just confirmed it."

Colton / Ambrose - "Anything for family."

Charles/Jane With a golden goblet in hand and resting on what looks to be a bed stuffed with rose petals, Charles Brackner had a silly grin on his face that turned sheepish as he is inevitably fussed over. His twin yelped and leaped up onto the pillows with him, spraying the room with an excess of petals. Charles acquiesced; his bashfully pink cheeks were no lies for his guilt. Finally grabbing Jane's wrists and holding hands to her face, he let her feel a moment before squeezing his own reassurance.

"It's all right, Jane."

Jane / Rick / Charles (/Mitchell) "Listen up. When we get off this bloody island triangle, you and your father are sitting down and fucking talking because this family can not lose anyone more. Luce will be there, she will be fantastic moral support, and all three of you are going to apologize to each other, yes, all three of you, and I will not stand for any fighting, for at least one day, that's it, just one day."

Rick / Jane (To Leah) "Was that a butterfly?"

Athena / Apollo So they sat mere feet away from one another, the only communication between them the weight of his judgement.

Darrell / Amalie "Did you steal my bag too? Did you throw it away?! You're so fucking judgmental-"

"I did you a favor! Consider yourself saved."

(Friends)

Olivier / Eliza She whispered, Close your eyes, darling, I'm not quite done if you want to see more than me. He worried an instant, struggling to think if accepting this 'gift' was a good idea. Then, he did as bid. He felt make-up powder falling to his collarbone. Cool lips touched over his eyelids. Warmth sang through his bones.

Orion / Genevieve “Orion… it’s been so long.” She smiled, reaching for him with gold-stained fingers. He took her hand. “She’s here. She’s here, and the island is no longer anchored.”

Darrell / Irene "I know how you Egalignians are with your red, don't worry,", Irene giggled and then tapped her chest, "besides, I always carry my own."

Darrell / Helena "Princess, we are beseeching you to reconsider." - suave motherfucker this is mostly here to enjoy Darrell

Daniella / Gia "I don't know how many times I can thank you, but it will never be enough. Thank you for your sacrifice."

"Do me a favor then," Daniella gasped out to Gia, wishing her heart would slow back down faster (was that SUCH a surprise that she wanted it both ways?).

"Help me keep all these loving, well-meaning people focused on saving Nadia and Leah equally. I probably can't donate to this hungry bastard again."

Favorite Event "Behind the Scenes"

Exiled:...shit I have to pick between those interrogations? Honestly, they were all glorious. My favorite single line is probably Irene's "I really fucking hate dying." but like. The one where Cyrus/Rick was the first one I was like "Yeah that is def Rick and also NO LEAH" and I cried and like, then giggled over "I need a respite" like, shit Rick why you gotta sass your father like that and then I cried again. And the entire format of the interrogations was one of my absolute FAVORITE things about this plot, it was a totally awesome convention. But I guess if I had to pick a favorite-favorite it's gotta be the one where Kenneth turned himself in and it ends with "Ken?"/"Leah, we need your help." First of all, Audrey doing the "violent,chaotic magic" was hot and terrifying and should bein every MP #notsorry. Secondly, that's a brilliant twist and introduction back into Leah's #wedonotdeserveher end-game role here and I LOVE how you went with this once I gave you Leah as a sacrifice. Seriously, that post just ... #allthefeels.

Treasures of Atlantis: Definitely gotta be the one where Gia and the Atlanteans interact. Gia has such an understandable motive with a side-dose of crazy for this entire plot and it really shows excellently through in this post like - Lynxie for someone who says they don't like writing villains lmfao fuck you could never tell. This post opening to your A day like - "What do you need from us?"/*smiiiile* "Incentive." Like, that sent shivers down my spine, on top of what was already a really cool piece of lore you were revealing about the blood calling to her and 'why would that be' and the Atlanteans physical form too. Plus it is the turning point.

Crisis of Conscience: Ok so for the sake of variety I'm going to say the poem at Sacred Sidhe. I really wanted to explore the poem format and to be honest, even if on AIM I filled in exactly like "This is what is happening" I actually didn't feel like you guys didn't follow lmfao like, and tbh it was actually easier for me ! like later the whole "Athena dreamed first. Irene dreamed second. X dreamed fourth -- wait you skipped. WHO DREAMED." lmfao like, I liked that convention. But the poem at the sacred sidhe doing like "Oops Derek you just got pushed off" and "hey sienna you accidentally just helped your sis by grabbing pandora and condemned irene to pain too" and simultaneously just sitting there thinking about all of our characters and how THEY would relate to each season like = Mitchell, thinking about his brother and how cold he was and how much he hated the nobility taking Rowland from him to keep THEIR fires warm (also wow does that go well with helping him get angrier and angrier in a forest already doing that lol) -- Apollo thinking about how much "longer" he can "reign" in the summer; Alysa thought of being in the garden with her mother in the spring, etc, etc.

Favorite Puzzle

Treasures of Atlantis: EEP. Ok well strictly-strictly puzzle related it's gotta be the Kraken one. I loved the use of lore in that and like, I actually got to learn somethings! (No idea Atlas was Poseidon's son lmfao I was Sienna in that scene being all "No Zeus wasn't the FIRST king" but without google .. would never have known people preexisted Kronus xD). Also it was so unique like, you had to have so much fun making that graphic! Maze + logic puzzle lmao; and then narratively speaking the sudden abrupt foreshadowing of the Kraken like, GAH THAT SCARED ME and then I was like Shit when is Angela gonna fall and it put me in a seriously heightened state for the entire time I was trying to solve the puzzle.

Exiled: ...I mean my stick drawings trying to solve Gia/Leah aside, lmao, and the fact my fave moment of puzzle understanding was when I felt a lightbulb go off and like, got to have Daniella have the same moment I did like "...There's blood on the rock. The island demands it's sacrifice." Like, SHIT. [And man she kind of proved Mitchell's point in that it was her, not a noble like, that suddenly ripped her arm open) -- but all the same my actual favorite PUZZLE puzzle was the Sudoku. As you saw. XD I always do it by hand lmfao and like, I spent far more time trying to accurately draw the grid because I didn't have my graph paper (sigh) but like, I LOVE WHEN PUZZLES MAKE ME DO THAT lmfao and it was such a cool spin on it. YOU SAW HOW EXCITED I WAS lmfaooo #MOREPUZZLESPLEASE [Logic!!!] [And, again, narratively - man the moment Jane is like "The tit" to Mitchell and he's like *blink* *goes from thinking she's the most annoying infuriating person in the world to suddenly reminded of Leah and smiling* just...ha\sdfasdfkjaskldjf.]
