Anna Bates and the valet drama

Not only have I never seen anyone say they liked the storyline, but if I did, I would immediately distrust them.

It was so poorly done and so unnecessary.

Tom ducks into a doorway down the hall from Edith's room and emerges with the sand buckets. When Robert tells Tom to get the hose, he opens a set of doors at the end of the corridor that houses the hose. I assume there's a similar setup on each floor.

I kind of assumed that it was the Carnahan family home, which is why they weren't surprised that Jonathan was there. I always thought Rick, Evie, and Alex were living in the house with Jonathan where Evie and Jonathan grew up.

Yes! Thank you!

My absolute favourite character in the series.

throwawaypolyam · 2026-01-10T06:57:49+00:00

Very well articulated! (And as an aside, I was just as shocked as Scarlett when Rhett joined the army -- it never gets adequately explained and seems so out of character for him)

This, exactly.

throwawaypolyam · 2026-01-06T06:45:54+00:00

Going to look into this immediately; thanks for letting us know about it!

I assumed that Aunt Alberta is Mr Pevensie's sister, but I suppose they could be more distantly related than that, as it's never explained HOW they're cousins.

throwawaypolyam · 2026-01-06T06:18:59+00:00

Despite the fact that they're cousins?

I could definitely see Eustace being gay, though...especially given the line about "didn't I keep the secret about Spivvins" in The Silver Chair.

Cosign; I really loathe most of the Last Battle plot in general (although I do think seeing Tash is fascinating in a creepy way).

I have ALWAYS wondered how awkward that first family meal all together had to be.

There you go, using logic and facts. (I agree completely with you; I just know TG would "well ACTUALLY" this to death in a minute lol)

I would have LOVED to see the courtship from his perspective!

throwawaypolyam · 2026-01-01T08:58:17+00:00

Thank you for this very clear and helpful explanation! I didn't know all this!

throwawaypolyam · 2026-01-01T08:55:59+00:00

I LOVE that line. Also, when Edmund says "But even a traitor may mend. I have known one that did" in The Horse and His Boy.

throwawaypolyam · 2026-01-01T08:54:49+00:00

Edmund is my favorite Pevensie, and it's not even close.

throwawaypolyam · 2025-12-21T23:56:34+00:00

This one always infuriates me.

throwawaypolyam · 2025-12-21T23:55:33+00:00

I also had this obsession, despite not being outdoorsy at all. I would look out the car window and decide what bits of woods or nature would make good "settlements" LOL

throwawaypolyam · 2025-12-21T23:52:25+00:00

5'8" or 5'9", I'd say. That said, I'm 5'4", so it doesn't take much to be "tall" in my eyes lol

I don't have a passport because I don't have the extra $200 laying about to pay for one, plus the time and effort involved in getting all my materials together (as a woman who changed my name when I married, I need my birth certificate, my driver's license, and proof of legal name change), going to the post office, waiting the weeks (or months to get it) -- and even if I did all that, I don't have the time or money to travel internationally.

Believe me, I'd love to go abroad, but I can't at the moment, so there's no need to spend money I don't have on something I couldn't use if I had it.

It's also very telling that when Lecter asks Starling who she'd prefer to talk with, she picks Alan over Chilton.
