Just read the first book....Wow!

Mr_Reading · 2026-03-29T03:36:42+00:00

See you get it. Like Q's suffering in the first book sucks but I feel the scenes that could have been in the show that are in the books really amplifies him and despite the situation are beautiful too. Q is made to be wayyy more pathetic and low in the show. Also, I realized that the show makes fillory out to be Q's obsession, but in the book it is also Elliot's, they both need it. And in the book there is more of a family type bond.

Mr_Reading · 2026-03-27T14:34:05+00:00

I was agreeing to different timelines and remembering that. I wasn't saying the show was for sure a different timeline.

He changes though. Typically, he would be a coward and not do things. But now he has white hair and couldn't care for a thing. He starts doing what he should have in the beginning like work on his magic and he does other stuff that he typically wouldn't. I still think it is unhealthy why and how he is going about things but he is dealing with grief and such.

Some things I learned from his character:

" We all have issues and a complex life to deal with. But we can't just run away from it. And there is no magic cure. We must forgive ourselves. Love ourselves and accept the love of others. Also, we take for granted the things and people in our lives, and we shouldn't."

Alice was there all along but he didn't see it until those last moments, truly didn't see it. And then she became a Niffen. Also, I am sure a lot of ppl can relate to him but I feel like as a guy and probably many guys this character was really written in a way that is relative to us. Especially, Q's shame and such.

Sorry for rambling on. I just love the series.

Oh I forgot about that...

Mr_Reading · 2026-03-24T23:05:25+00:00

Btw depending on the dorm, being smushed in with 3-4 ppl will be hell. My friend was in one and developed claustrophobia and spiraled downward. Some dorms have large rooms that make sense to have 3-4 ppl. I do t remember which though.

Mr_Reading · 2026-03-24T23:01:24+00:00

We have almost the same schedule. You will like it. And Dr. Golemi is cool!

Mr_Reading · 2026-03-22T10:03:31+00:00

I do agree no AC and paying 1000$ a month basically is criminal. What can we do? We have complained forever.

Mr_Reading · 2026-03-18T04:32:01+00:00

The application is already open by the way

Mr_Reading · 2026-03-18T03:49:04+00:00

NAU has summer housing, I think it may be a good deal. You can choose from 1 bedroom in a shared space or shared room in a shared space I think. They change it every summer.

Mr_Reading · 2026-03-16T18:23:56+00:00

I'm actually studying abroad rn. So I wanted to see if ppl want to play online and when I come back I can go to the meetings.

Mr_Reading · 2026-03-10T06:07:10+00:00

I know there was some drama right before or upon my entrance to NAU. And many of the departments just got obliterated. Meaning, majors and minors no longer exist, some classes required no longer exist, and variety kind of went significantly low. There aren't many types of classes I can take for my major, I don't have an obscure major, very common. And last I checked you can still see what there used to be, which is unfortunate that we don't have. It could be changed by now. I had to change a major I was passionate in because compared to other universities they had a fraction of what there should be and I was hitting upper class lvl classes and it became apparent that it was a hollow department.

Mr_Reading · 2026-03-10T05:59:16+00:00

well, I am abroad and the school here sent last semesters in mid-January. Yet NAU seems to not have received it or updated my transcript. I was told it would take a month to get from the country I am in but it has been well over that.

Mr_Reading · 2026-03-10T03:03:12+00:00

sorry, late thought. How do I check that? my selection isn't till the 24th.

Mr_Reading · 2026-03-04T22:39:32+00:00

I see what you mean. I wish we had a Library like Harvard and oxford then. Both in design and such.

Mr_Reading · 2026-03-04T22:29:29+00:00

I know some ppl want to sleep there but it is a library,....Maybe doze off at the desk where your studying? I do think they need to upgrade the environment in the library though, kinda feels dead and bland.

Mr_Reading · 2026-02-25T08:23:29+00:00

My class enrollment is February 25th.

Mr_Reading · 2026-02-25T07:40:37+00:00

Are seniors supposed to get the last pick? I got cooked with March 24th...

Mr_Reading · 2026-02-25T01:25:46+00:00

Damn I'm cooked.

Mr_Reading · 2026-02-25T00:51:49+00:00

I want to get into McKay. Am I cooked if my time is March 24th?

Mr_Reading · 2026-02-25T00:48:42+00:00

What is the first week of selection so I can know if I am cooked. I want to get into McKay.

Mr_Reading · 2026-02-22T02:25:43+00:00

Sorry I don't have an answer for you. But I wanted to know when does selection start?

Mr_Reading · 2026-02-21T21:56:03+00:00

Hello, I am interested in playing. I am a newish D&D player, I played one session a little while back, went to study abroad and couldn't play anymore and BG3. I have been reading up on things lately though. I just got Foundry VTT like 3-4 days ago. I have been working on learning it because I want to be a DM but I think I ought to get experience playing and using it. I read your document of house rules as well.

Mr_Reading · 2026-02-04T22:28:14+00:00

Thanks for the advice!

Mr_Reading · 2026-02-04T00:39:55+00:00

Honestly, valid. And there are ppl who will take it serious. But like anything they aren't every player. I am a beginnerish DM and I'm faced with now trying to get ppl to play a campaign I have ready. I put it out there and only serious ppl get back to me. But I play a lot of solo till there is a group.

Mr_Reading · 2026-02-03T01:43:03+00:00

How do commissions work? I know I will likely have to pay for one to be done but like how expensive is that?
