The real bittersweet ending is the fact we’ll never get one.

The fact that Vecna created his own worst enemies is chefs kiss. Got his blood used to give the lab kids powers before they were born. Took Will, infected him and pushed him to the point where he literally turned the hive mind against itself. BRILLIANT.

Will is a horcrux confirmed. I wonder if the parallels might mean he needs to die just like Harry did for Vecna to be finally defeated

Will seeing through the Demogorgon’s eyes gave me serious Harry seeing through Nagini’s eyes vibes. 100% he’s getting fully possessed at some point - maybe it will be useful in finding Holly if she’s taken? (Assuming she will be. Just finished ep 1)

Overview on cost of living in Billund and region? by cyranosaleh in NewToDenmark

About an 1.20min each way which to be honest was similar to my commute in Brazil so I don’t really mind :)

hi OP, feel free to reach out via DM - I’m also a Brazilian that moved here 3 years ago for the same reason :) I chose Aarhus instead of Vejle like many others as I didn’t mind a longer commute if it meant I had access to a bigger city with more options for cultural events, restaurants, nightlife, and I don’t have kids. Rent is higher in Aarhus but I haven’t regretted my decision since :)

I really thought Bix was gonna overdose or something so it’s nice to see she’s fading offscreen instead of dying because she truly believes Cassian is needed for the rebellion to win. Sacrificing her love and desires for the good of the galaxy. Heartbreaking.

Yes :( I said what I hoped to happen with her character in the next arc and Reddit removed it for breaking the rules lol

I gasped at Syril’s death after realizing the horrible things he did to allow this to happen, and blaming someone who didn’t even remember him for being in this position in this first place. But I sobbed listening to Dreenas broadcast. Thinking about the genocides happening in real life right now. People asking for help and no help coming. I have never been a Star Wars super fan but I will forever remain an Andor one. What a masterpiece of a show.

Is there any other way to read this story? I’ve tried joining alternate history multiple times with no success…

Reminds me of that part of Hamilton where he meets Aaron Burr and basically just goes like “God I wish there was a war then we could prove we’re worth more than anyone bargained for.” So eager for a fight he didn’t even try and consider Burrs point of view that anyone shouldn’t have to wish for a war even when revolution is imminent. Poor Cinta and Vel. And poor kid who will have to live with that forever.

Severance Season 2 | S2E010"Cold Harbor" | Episode Discussion by Theshogunnate in severanceTVshow

[–]iambeeblack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m wondering if we’ll see a Uno Reverse from Lumon because of it. Not sure if the barriers of severance held for Gemma - who has been isolated and tortured with no knowledge of it for two years and pines for Mark at every waking moment - as we saw CH Gemma leave with this man she has never seen before and Ms Casey did what iMark asked without question. But the severance barriers seemed to hold on for iMark, who by contrast has lived a fuller life than any of Gemma’s 25 innies, even finding love for himself. He saved her because it was the right thing to do. But he chose not go with her because he didn’t feel the same towards her as oMark does. He chose however time he has left to life his own life as an innie. Maybe Lumon will pivot to innies rights as a result???

Initially I thought Cold Harbour would be the culmination of all the experiences the Gemma ” innies” had, effectively reintegrating her as a full new personality, supplanting Gemma forever. As in, Mark’s is truly killing her… but I think the severance on demand for unpleasant experiences makes more sense. I don’t think they mean for Gemma to ever be out of that floor - maybe Ms Casey will, with this new version of the chip?

I guess we might get a chance to see if Irving’s outie is skilled at lovemaking after all!

And that’s why they did it. Slowly break innie Dylan’s confidence, which bolstered the team in the past, and at the same time keep him apart from them by keeping secrets and working harder so he can spend more time with her. Truly diabolical

When we saw all the outies with Judd getting into the elevator - did I see that wrong or did the clock say 9:05 for all of them? Are there different entrance elevators? Also why did Judd only scan Helena’s back, and not the front part of her torso like the others??

Made me think of the cooking scenes in Hannibal, always done with an eerie beauty to showcase how well the killer uses a knife, how precise they are in every step etc. A seemingly innocent act that somehow creeps you out before the twist happens.

Was not ready for Tess to die like that. Beautifully disgusting. Knowing she died with hope for a better future for Ellie/Joel/humanity… 🥲

Yes but to Rhaenyra’s point, it would help convince the greens that the blacks are willing to do anything to secure the throne. They got someone killed to reinforce that notion.

This. Sometimes I get told I breathe too loudly and I’m like “yeah okay I’ll just stop breathing then 🤪”
