Speaker 2: I was really tired, that's fair. And sometimes writing is.
Speaker 1: Hard, that's fair. You are a professional writer. You do

Speaker 1: a new little ear reader. It's from a company called xtek.
Speaker 2: Ad but they're not paying us, and it's just because
Speaker 2: we like it.
Speaker 1: It's tiny and it's only like seventy dollars and it's tiny,
Speaker 1: and it's cute and it's tiny and it's cute and
Speaker 1: you can put it on the back and I like it.
Speaker 2: It's tiny, it's cute. What is it called in It's
Speaker 2: called a xte.
Speaker 1: Inc xt ink. Yeah. You have to be kind of
Speaker 1: techy to set it up. You have to you have
Speaker 1: to be able to That doesn't describe me, no, but me, well,
Speaker 1: it does describe me anyway. I'm sorry. That doesn't really matter.
Speaker 1: I just wanted to mention it because I'm using this
Speaker 1: tiny little thing. Allie, we are here today talk about
Speaker 1: chapter six.
Speaker 2: Techy or know someone who is techy, a.
Speaker 1: Little bit techy questioning attentions. Uh, you've already given me
Speaker 1: an immediate overview of your thoughts on this chapter. Please continue,
Speaker 1: Are were to mirror you guys?
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's normal to just declare to two people who
Speaker 2: are in a situationship. Yeah, because they're in a situationship. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's not even a relationship. They're in a situationship. They
Speaker 2: met on Hinge, they've banged twice, and you've decided to
Speaker 2: marry them.
Speaker 1: They haven't even I don't think they even kiss.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. Yeah, it's as if you went
Speaker 2: to these two people that met on Hinge. Like it's
Speaker 2: like it's as if you were in a pottery class
Speaker 2: and there were these two people who were flirting and
Speaker 2: you happen to be a sea captain.
Speaker 1: Because sea captains can do you can marry people?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Is that only at C or is that under any context?
Speaker 2: I don't know. Actually, can we google that?
Speaker 1: Yeah? We can. This is important and relevant.
Speaker 2: Is it just maritime?
Speaker 1: But please continue talking, or okay.
Speaker 2: Or you just happen to be ordained because it's not
Speaker 2: that hard to get ordained, and you're just like, all right,
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna start marrying people because that's what I
Speaker 2: do now.
Speaker 1: Apparently, Okay, it's a myth. Really, it's a myth. It's
Speaker 1: a myth.
Speaker 2: Really.
Speaker 1: They have to be a justice of the peace, a minister,
Speaker 1: or an officially recognized officiant such as a notary public.
Speaker 2: Booz, Wait, so a notary public can marry people.
Speaker 1: Uh, they can issue a marriage license.
Speaker 2: So our friend Gina could just marry us right now.
Speaker 1: Our friend Gina literally.
Speaker 2: Issued our marriage marriage I know this.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember she handed it to me and said
Speaker 1: you can get married now, congratulations, and I said, thanks Gina.
Speaker 2: It was Gina.
Speaker 1: I don't you know. Notary republic is such a Oh
Speaker 1: I forgot I left a camera on. The camera is
Speaker 1: just we have a camera set up here and our
Speaker 1: podcast set up for the Babylon podcast, and I keep
Speaker 1: forgetting to turn it off. So it's plugged in. So
Speaker 1: I come in and there's just a camera on pointing
Speaker 1: at the wall. I should probably turn this off more regularly.
Speaker 1: It's probably not a good idea to just have a
Speaker 1: camera on all the time. Anyway, not to republic is
Speaker 1: such an interesting thing because anyone could.
Speaker 2: Do that can become a notary Republican.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you have to pay a thing, and I think
Speaker 1: you have to take a test, and you have to
Speaker 1: have something a test vouch.
Speaker 2: For you, probably I think a class.
Speaker 1: Okay. The auto fill on Google was how do you
Speaker 1: become a ship captain? That's actually less.
Speaker 2: Complicated to become a ship captain.
Speaker 1: Well, you get a ship and you probably get a
Speaker 1: pilot's license to become a notary public if you call.
Speaker 2: It a pilot if you're at sea.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Eighteen years of age, you're older in California,
Speaker 1: be a California resident, Complete a course of study, Complete
Speaker 1: and pass a written examination. Clear a background check.
Speaker 2: Okay, I've done three out of those five things already.
Speaker 2: What back, what I've passed a background you're eighteen or
Speaker 2: older and I'm a California, California resident, and you've cleared
Speaker 2: a background check. Yeah, because I had to clear a
Speaker 2: background check for teaching children.
Speaker 1: Obviously you're trying to become a notary public.
Speaker 2: That's on the table. Apparently I could do that right now, I.
Speaker 1: Think parents should be a notary public.
Speaker 2: This is no parent should not be a notary public
Speaker 2: because he would just every time be like, you're telling
Speaker 2: me that I got to stamp this.
Speaker 1: But that seems to be the level of responsibility he
Speaker 1: actually wants to have.
Speaker 2: No, he just wants to He just wants to bang stuff, right.
Speaker 1: He wants to bang his iron and bang his wife.
Speaker 1: But that's the thing because he's also seems to feel
Speaker 1: comfortable going you two can get married, Go get married.
Speaker 1: It's he seems like the kind of guy who just
Speaker 1: wants to be able to run.
Speaker 2: That's not something that you should be doing. No, it's
Speaker 2: not two people.
Speaker 1: But he likes to. He seems to like to govern
Speaker 1: by fiat, if you know what I mean, where he
Speaker 1: just says do this, do that fiat? Fiat, yeah, fiat
Speaker 1: a declaration. You never heard that before? Do do x
Speaker 1: y Z buy fiat? No fiat. Apart from being an
Speaker 1: audible what.
Speaker 2: Model of fiat? Yeah? Uh, I was picturing him riding
Speaker 2: on a Fiat screaming authoritative or arbitrary.
Speaker 1: He just drives by in a Fiat, tells people to
Speaker 1: get married.
Speaker 2: He's like, he's just like bah bah like in his Fiat.
Speaker 1: You ever had a Fia? Ever driven a Fiat? No?
Speaker 1: My mom had a Fiat?
Speaker 2: Are they any good?
Speaker 1: They are now? They used to? Have you ever listened
Speaker 1: to car Talk the podcast cards? No?
Speaker 2: Well yes with you?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Car Talk. Back in the day in like the nineties,
Speaker 1: fiats are considered really bad, and the joke was that
Speaker 1: Fiat fiaitisted for finally I'm almost there. But my mom
Speaker 1: had one in the early two thousand It was pretty
Speaker 1: good anyway. Paren driving around his Fiat, marrying people by
Speaker 1: Fiat seems like the level of responsibility he actually wants
Speaker 1: to have is that of a notary public who just
Speaker 1: kind of approves things or doesn't and then fucks off.
Speaker 2: He just he wants to vacuum the attic while everyone
Speaker 2: else is planning the party.
Speaker 1: You're calling me out again.
Speaker 2: I'm not calling you out for disappearing from our party
Speaker 2: yesterday to reorganize our kitchen.
Speaker 1: That's what I was already planning to do. That is
Speaker 1: something Paren would do.
Speaker 2: You were planning to during our party, reorganize the kitchen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well we weren't supposed to have a party in
Speaker 1: the first place.
Speaker 2: Well, it wasn't a party. It was gathering. All right, everybody,
Speaker 2: this is a good question for the entire podcast.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, So we've had a friendly disagreement because
Speaker 1: it was the fourth of July, and Alie says.
Speaker 2: Which is a day of no consequence to America.
Speaker 1: Alie says to me, hey, let's have a party, and
Speaker 1: I say, I'd rather not. You know, we we just
Speaker 1: we had to do a bunch of work on our
Speaker 1: kitchen as a belated extension of the mold that we
Speaker 1: got in January. We're done terminally on the terminents. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I said, no, no, no, listen, we really got to
Speaker 1: unpack everything again, and the dog is going to be
Speaker 1: a shambles. I'd rather not have a party. And she says, okay, well,
Speaker 1: I'll just invite a few people over.
Speaker 2: You said I could invite a few people over.
Speaker 1: Yeah. No, I agreed to that.
Speaker 2: I didn't just decide, you know, I was going to
Speaker 2: do it. And so then I just thought that was
Speaker 2: important to declare a.
Speaker 1: Total of eight people came over because it was a
Speaker 1: gap in my opinion, and it was our stand and
Speaker 1: wait close to spread eight people. We also had to
Speaker 1: you know, barbecue and cook and like prepare mee. You
Speaker 1: did it, But I'm saying we are family.
Speaker 2: I went to the grocery store, I got the accoutrem.
Speaker 1: I cleaned up, and I prepared the food, and then
Speaker 1: you cooked it.
Speaker 2: That's true.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, so but but where we where we entered
Speaker 1: into the disagreement is I said, well, this still feels
Speaker 1: like a party, and Alie said, no, a party is
Speaker 1: when you invite ten or more people, ten or more
Speaker 1: people and your house. I said, a party is if
Speaker 1: you invite more than four people.
Speaker 2: Which I think is crazy because it's two couples.
Speaker 1: I think it depends on the situation.
Speaker 2: Well, because my thought process was, but what's the day.
Speaker 2: It's the fourth of July, and it was the week
Speaker 2: of the fourth of July. So I was like, all
Speaker 2: of our friends will have plans, all of them will
Speaker 2: be out of town. Well whatever, whatever, whatever. So I
Speaker 2: invited our eight closest or ten closest. You invited ten people,
Speaker 2: invited ten people, assuming that four people would come.
Speaker 1: So actually, wait a minute. By inviting ten people, you
Speaker 1: prepared for a party.
Speaker 2: Because I assumed correctly that most of them would not
Speaker 2: be able to come, but eight of them did. Well,
Speaker 2: that was a surprise. Our friends don't have a lot
Speaker 2: of other friends.
Speaker 1: And one of them brought her dog, So those eight
Speaker 1: a small dog. Yes, that doesn't change it.
Speaker 2: And it's Pete's best friend, and actually it was great for.
Speaker 1: Pet best friend, third best friend, second best friend, second
Speaker 1: best friend.
Speaker 2: I would say Darla's third, Okay, Darlas third, because I
Speaker 2: find their their friendship overwhelming.
Speaker 1: It is it is, it is. All I'm saying is parent,
Speaker 1: and I would agree. If Ayel invited eight people over,
Speaker 1: parent would be like, actually, he wouldn't say anything because
Speaker 1: he doesn't communicate. He would be passive aggressive about it
Speaker 1: several days later. It's true, that's how parent. That's how
Speaker 1: the wheel of speaking of the wheel of time, my
Speaker 1: little tiny readers.
Speaker 2: So I need I need to know how many people
Speaker 2: in your mind, and let's talk about this on the discord.
Speaker 2: Constitutes a party or what? What is the quality as
Speaker 2: a gathering? Well, also, we didn't have to clean that
Speaker 2: much because there are friends.
Speaker 1: But you did call me when you were out shopping
Speaker 1: for food. You said, hey, make sure the house is clean,
Speaker 1: and I said.
Speaker 2: Clean clean enough, clean enough for like like like not
Speaker 2: garbage places and stuff.
Speaker 1: Well, it's not as though we have garbage places.
Speaker 2: Well, just you know, just to give it a sweep,
Speaker 2: give it a give it a little, give it a
Speaker 2: little little gaze. And it's like if there's anything like
Speaker 2: really objectionable, like you know, tidy.
Speaker 1: That chapter six Questioning Intentions actually not a parent chapter?
Speaker 1: He is, who is it?
Speaker 2: Oh? Then I was talking about next chapter.
Speaker 1: No, this is a chapter about parent But it's not
Speaker 1: his problem.
Speaker 2: It's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's more gaze.
Speaker 1: It's more gaze, more gaze. Track hand Once Queen of
Speaker 1: and Or, sir, kind of bumming me out, tell me
Speaker 1: about this.
Speaker 2: She's like she used to be the queen of fucking
Speaker 2: and Or, and now she's like, I'm really devoted to
Speaker 2: this tea pouring, right.
Speaker 1: Go on, that's what she's got going on. Right, she's depressing,
Speaker 1: is why? But is she finding joy in her work?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: So what's the problem. There is a problem. I agree
Speaker 1: there is a problem, but the problem I think is
Speaker 1: less to do with the enjoying serving tea.
Speaker 2: Like yeah, I don't have a problem with like, I mean,
Speaker 2: live your bliss right like we did a tea serrebody
Speaker 2: you padded. There's there's a lot of joy to be
Speaker 2: had in you know, service, There's a lot of joy
Speaker 2: to be had in ceremony. There's a lot of joy
Speaker 2: to be had in small acts of whatever. It's just
Speaker 2: she was a career woman. She had a she had
Speaker 2: a promising career that was derailed by an abusive man.
Speaker 1: She did have that happen, and yeah, that's the problem.
Speaker 2: And now she's like, you know what, Servanty, Actually, you
Speaker 2: know what, I'm on her side again.
Speaker 1: She found Joe.
Speaker 2: You're like, you're like, you know what, not worth it
Speaker 2: with the job that is difficult and the man that's
Speaker 2: made to you. Now I just want to and now
Speaker 2: I just want to be on a homestead with my
Speaker 2: friends and raised chickens.
Speaker 1: She moved from person to person in the large pavilion
Speaker 1: parent had taken from Maldon. It had sides that could
Speaker 1: be rolled up and no tent floor. Thank you, Robert. Uh,
Speaker 1: that is actually useful information. Blah blah blah. Elias is here,
Speaker 1: Tam is here. I'm sure Elias is shooting out microaggressions left,
Speaker 1: right and center. It's his favorite thing to do.
Speaker 2: Oh racist eli Uh seven ball?

Speaker 1: baseous ball where that is what you've called him in

Speaker 2: in the plan.
Speaker 1: Not that he's said anything.
Speaker 2: Not that he's seven to anything.
Speaker 1: There you go. I'm not going to circle back again
Speaker 1: on my favorite topic. Why the fuck does nobody recognize
Speaker 1: more Gaze? But anyway, face blindness? Seven ball were is there?
Speaker 1: Grady Neil? What's going on with you? Ashaman? By the way,
Speaker 1: do you remember this?
Speaker 2: Oh? Oh injured?
Speaker 1: Yes, sometime between eleven and now they got really sick
Speaker 1: in a way that made it difficult for them to channel,
Speaker 1: and so now they can't hold gateways open for a
Speaker 1: long time. They're diminished.
Speaker 2: It was just a way for them to introduce the
Speaker 2: fact that they could link in a circle with it yesterday.
Speaker 1: It is. It is purely for plot purposes, for the plot.
Speaker 1: But that's fine. You know, uh saying it massuri a noura?
Speaker 1: Is there anura a nourra? Uh? She thinks about Gary Aura.
Speaker 1: Yeah the movie. Yeah, yeah, that's a good movie. It's
Speaker 1: a really good movie. Goy. She spends a lot of
Speaker 1: time kind of reflecting on her behavior with a podcast.
Speaker 2: Go watch that.
Speaker 1: She spends a lot of time.
Speaker 2: But there's like a lot of sex and a lot
Speaker 2: so I like, watch it with your kids.
Speaker 1: We started watching Margo's Got Money Troubles yesterday. By the way,
Speaker 1: good show, Good show show. Much more boob than I thought.
Speaker 2: But it's about a girl who has an a only fans, so, like,
Speaker 2: I know, she shouldn't have been that surprised.
Speaker 1: It's not a problem. I was just surprised. There's also
Speaker 1: a somewhat graphic childbirth scene. You were looking at your
Speaker 1: phone at that point.
Speaker 2: I looked down for one second. He went oh, and
Speaker 2: I went what And you were like baby coming out
Speaker 2: of a vagina and I was like.
Speaker 1: Oh, not a problem. Just didn't expect it.
Speaker 2: I didn't need to see it.
Speaker 1: Well you didn't. Yeah, yeah, good show though so far.
Speaker 1: El Fanning is great. She's always great.
Speaker 2: She's always great.
Speaker 1: Nick Offerman's in it Michelle Pfeiffer's in it. She's great.
Speaker 2: He's not fully in it yet, though, I think that's
Speaker 2: like next episode.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he becomes more important. Read the book, he becomes
Speaker 1: more important later on.
Speaker 2: I I go, because you know, all the advertisements that
Speaker 2: I have seen have been about Elle Fanning and Nick Offerman.
Speaker 2: I like Michelle Pfeiffer. I've only seen one scene of her.
Speaker 1: She has only three scenes in the pilot.
Speaker 2: No, I know, but like in all the advertisements, I
Speaker 2: was like surprised how much of a role she had
Speaker 2: in the pilot because I had thought that. Her mom
Speaker 2: was like, no, you're out of my house.
Speaker 1: Well keep watching. Oh oh, I'm not going to tell
Speaker 1: you what happens. Well I keep watching.
Speaker 2: Well, as your aunt would say, well.
Speaker 1: Well my family's from the Midwest. Well, anyway, she reflects
Speaker 1: on her behavior when she was She thinks about Gareth Brynn,
Speaker 1: which makes her think about the way she behaved with Robin.
Speaker 1: She's like, what the fuck was wrong with me? The
Speaker 1: fuck was going on?
Speaker 2: I feel you, I see you when that fog lifts
Speaker 2: and you reflect, When that trauma bond disabates and you reflect,
Speaker 2: you go, holy fucking shit, that man was abusive. I
Speaker 2: get it, we've all been there.
Speaker 1: Maybe possibly very little about that time in her life
Speaker 1: made sense to her.
Speaker 2: No, yeah, I get it.
Speaker 1: Has she really been so infatuated with a man? That?
Speaker 2: Get it?
Speaker 1: Girl?
Speaker 2: I get it girl. Oh okay, So she just go
Speaker 2: pour the tea.
Speaker 1: She's pouaran tea.
Speaker 2: She's like, she's like, nothing can fix us. I'm so embarrassed.
Speaker 2: I'm just going to pour tea and hope no one
Speaker 2: notices me.
Speaker 1: Paren is grilling the wise ones on why it took
Speaker 1: them so long to do a particular task. Do you
Speaker 1: remember what the task was?
Speaker 2: Banish a man from your life? No, because that takes forever.
Speaker 1: Nan. Yeah, when you have a task was.
Speaker 2: Get people home.
Speaker 1: There was a fucked up blight village, remember this, to
Speaker 1: get rid of it, to burn it.
Speaker 2: Well, that's one of those things you want to be
Speaker 2: thorough about.
Speaker 1: Paren goes. Your work took longer than i'd expect.
Speaker 2: Well, you want to be thorough.
Speaker 1: You gave us a duty to attend to and I
Speaker 1: we accomplished it. It took us as much time as
Speaker 1: needed to do it correctly. Surely you don't imply that
Speaker 1: we did otherwise. And Paren goes I wasn't questioning you
Speaker 1: as asking if there are any problems in the burning.
Speaker 2: Well, it sounded like you were questioning, and that made
Speaker 2: me feel sensitive.
Speaker 1: The village is gone, Navarron said, and every plant we
Speaker 1: found with a hint of blight has ah as well.
Speaker 1: We did yo wetland. That's what have much trouble dealing
Speaker 1: with something that's deadly as the blight's.
Speaker 2: Difficul to do. Have you ever tried to find like
Speaker 2: one rotten berry in a thing of berries?
Speaker 1: Do you think the blight is just mint?
Speaker 2: Because you're not supposed to plant men?
Speaker 1: Have you ever tried to get mint out of a garden? No,
Speaker 1: it's impossible.
Speaker 2: Really.
Speaker 1: If you plant mint in like a planter somewhere near
Speaker 1: your garden, your garden's done.
Speaker 2: Really.
Speaker 1: If you plant mint in the ground, you're fought. Mint
Speaker 1: is impossible to get rid of.
Speaker 2: That's why I heard I heard mint. It's like like
Speaker 2: I've seen people go like, all right, so I'm making
Speaker 2: a garden like an herb garden. I plant it some mint,
Speaker 2: and all the comments are.
Speaker 1: Like, no, yeah, I love it.
Speaker 2: But the love of God, now do you think.
Speaker 1: The blight is just mint?
Speaker 2: Now? I do?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: The blight is just mint, mint and dandelions. Yeah, because
Speaker 2: the other day you were like, what's so bad about dandelions?
Speaker 2: They're so great?
Speaker 1: And I was like, because kill everything else?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they.
Speaker 1: And so anyway, Navarna is like, you guys don't know
Speaker 1: how to deal with the blight, and Fayel, of course goes.
Speaker 1: I think that you would be surprised. Fayeel sat like
Speaker 1: a queen once again, dressed to her station in a
Speaker 1: fine dress of green and violet, pleated down the sides
Speaker 1: and divided for.
Speaker 2: Green and violet. Yeah, the man wrote this.
Speaker 1: They're opposite each other on the color wheel, aren't they.
Speaker 2: No, they are that. That's not a good color combination,
Speaker 2: green and virlight.
Speaker 1: They're not opposite.
Speaker 2: No, they're not good color combination.
Speaker 1: They're actually perpendicular to each other on the color wheel.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's why I said. A man wrote that that's pretty.
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't I you know, come on,
Speaker 2: I'm googling it.
Speaker 1: That's nice.
Speaker 2: It wouldn't be my first choice.
Speaker 1: I like it, like, it's nice.
Speaker 2: It's not well.
Speaker 1: Green and violet dress. It's a little jarring, but I mean,
Speaker 1: here's a la la la look look look look, look,
Speaker 1: look at that. This is it's a little much.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I'm saying it's it's a choice.
Speaker 1: Yes, but when has fai You'll ever not been somebody
Speaker 1: who's making a strong choice one way or the other. Oh,
Speaker 1: it's all about the choice. Show me that one.
Speaker 2: This isn't bad, but it has to be. But like
Speaker 2: violet and green implies like like harsh colors, Like it's
Speaker 2: got to be a muted green and a muted violet
Speaker 2: otherwise it's like that's a lot.
Speaker 1: And it is also funny because it's not even Seldean
Speaker 1: and Sildan is a silver fish on a dark blue field.
Speaker 2: Silverfish not the bugs eat silverfish.
Speaker 1: Oh, just a bunch of silver.
Speaker 2: It's just a bunch of bugs.
Speaker 1: It was like my roommate's rug in college, just a
Speaker 1: bunch of fucking silk.
Speaker 2: And you don't remember this, which roommate, uh uh Daniel No,
Speaker 2: James ew And he gave me that rug.
Speaker 1: Why I didn't know there was silverfish in it? Ew
Speaker 1: We dealt with silverfish for my entire senior year. Do
Speaker 1: remember this?
Speaker 2: I blogged it out.
Speaker 1: It was disgusting, it was awful. We should have burned
Speaker 1: that rug.
Speaker 2: We should have. Why didn't we?
Speaker 1: We were twenty two, we were we were dumb, all right?
Speaker 1: So anyway, yeah, green, the dress is a she's got
Speaker 1: a dressed uh. And we'll talk more about that after
Speaker 1: these ads. She waits ship. What were you saying? She's rocking.
Speaker 1: That's a little it's God, all right. So anyway, Fayel
Speaker 1: sat like a queen once again, dressed to her station
Speaker 1: in a fine dress of green and violet, pleaded down
Speaker 1: the sides, and divided for riding. Oddly, Fiel's sense of
Speaker 1: leadership leadership seemed to have been enhanced by her time
Speaker 1: spent with the Shadow. Sure, why not?
Speaker 2: Well, I guess trauma can do that to a person.
Speaker 2: It's just it always feels like, ah, this woman needs
Speaker 2: to grow. Let's give her a sexual assault plot life.
Speaker 1: I understand, I understand the problem.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean? Yeah, like two things can
Speaker 2: be true that because it can go either way. It
Speaker 2: kind of depends on your support system and stuff.
Speaker 1: More, Gaze and fai Yell had quickly gone back to
Speaker 1: being mistress and servants blah blah blah. In fact, Morgaze's
Speaker 1: life here was strikingly similar to what it had been
Speaker 1: in the shidou camp. What true, some things were different
Speaker 1: Moregaze wasn't likely to be strapped here, for instance. That
Speaker 1: didn't change the fact that for a time she knew
Speaker 1: the four minutedment equals no longer. Okay, so anyway, she
Speaker 1: feels a lot of cups. Any thoughts on the cups?
Speaker 1: I do kind of like this whole thing about the
Speaker 1: politics of being a tea server.
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, it's I'm looking at green of violet.
Speaker 1: You're still looking.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I mean yeah, I like it. That's all
Speaker 2: I have. She's pouring tea. What are you wondering? He's
Speaker 2: like looking, he's looking at He's giving me the go
Speaker 2: on hands, and I'm like, I have no going to on.
Speaker 1: Who else is here? Ally? Your favorite character?
Speaker 2: Oh god, is it talent for it?
Speaker 1: Yet? Other favorite character?
Speaker 2: My other favorite character. It's not Godwin?
Speaker 1: Now your other favorite character? I hate that many people
Speaker 1: gar Gonda, Oh.
Speaker 2: I fucking hate this guy. This was the worst time.
Speaker 2: Fuck this guy. He's speaking.
Speaker 1: If anyone is wondering that we've called him, the smoke
Speaker 1: from that fire.
Speaker 2: Indication, no one's wondering where you've gone, No one, No
Speaker 2: one gives a fuck where you are. You're the worst
Speaker 2: guy in the books. God, I care about my boss
Speaker 2: more than you care about your wife. No, fuck off,
Speaker 2: fuck off, I'm fuck off.
Speaker 1: Uh. Morgaze thinks about all of them.
Speaker 2: Someone think of the shareholders.
Speaker 1: That's Arganda Marques thinks about all of the men who
Speaker 1: have diminished her station in life, and how each of
Speaker 1: those experiences had moved her farther away from the queen
Speaker 1: she had been. Now, she didn't long for fine things
Speaker 1: or her throne. She just wanted some stability that, it seemed,
Speaker 1: was a commodity more precious than gold. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: you poor fucking thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's trauma size as fuck. This is why I'm like,
Speaker 2: you know, I get it. Girl. She's like, I just
Speaker 2: want I just want. I don't want a prince anymore.
Speaker 2: I just want a person that where like their moods
Speaker 2: they have like base. No. Literally, I said to someone
Speaker 2: the other day, I was like, I just want to
Speaker 2: not have to teach another adult to apologize over again
Speaker 2: in my life.
Speaker 1: Uh, remind me again, what is parents' camp team?
Speaker 2: And I think that's such a low bar, But I
Speaker 2: actually think that's a surprisingly difficult thing to find.
Speaker 1: What is parents crew trying to do? Who or what
Speaker 1: are they looking for to recover I should say Basil
Speaker 1: Gil and the rest of the team who got kidnapped,
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you know, grabbed.
Speaker 2: There there with the with the the guys. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 2: the Klorpleachman.
Speaker 1: They're like, hey, we gotta keep moving, Gota, we gotta
Speaker 1: hurry up. Parents like, hey, we got to hurry up.
Speaker 1: And this and uh Arganda is like, you do understand
Speaker 1: that everything is mud right now, Like shit's fucked up,
Speaker 1: and it may be wiser to take our time, and
Speaker 1: parent gives one of the funniest lines inadvertently I've ever
Speaker 1: heard him say, wisdom is for those who have time
Speaker 1: for it.
Speaker 2: Honestly, nothing has given us more insight into his life.
Speaker 1: But it is. It is an interesting inversion from where
Speaker 1: he was at the Remember the beginning of the book,
Speaker 1: he was like, people think I'm dumb because I really
Speaker 1: take my time with stuff, and I overthink and I'm
Speaker 1: cautious and all of this stuff. And now he's like,
Speaker 1: fuck it, full steam ahead. I spent five books looking
Speaker 1: for my wife.
Speaker 2: Could we could we land in a happy medium between
Speaker 2: those tuesdays?
Speaker 1: That's a bit I know uh tttt tttt.
Speaker 2: Like men really go from zero to one hundred?
Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
Speaker 2: People? You know what I shouldn't say, man, I should
Speaker 2: say people we really do go like, well that didn't work,
Speaker 2: so let me try the opposite extreme for a while.
Speaker 2: And you're like, actually, you know, equanimity is like this
Speaker 2: is some more Gaze. She's just like I just want
Speaker 2: stability and I'm like me too, girl Like it's it's
Speaker 2: in not having peace for a long time and having
Speaker 2: a really just regulated nervous system that makes you go.
Speaker 2: You know what is really underrated? A regulated nervous system.
Speaker 2: Holy shit. I will not have anything disrupt my piece
Speaker 2: ever again.
Speaker 1: What is the relationship between parent and more Gaze dictated
Speaker 1: by on more Gaze's side.
Speaker 2: I've been holding in a sneeze for I can hear it.
Speaker 2: It's like in there so hard again.
Speaker 1: It was a fourth of July yesterday, so switched to
Speaker 1: drug dog shit right.
Speaker 2: So dumb with fireworks. It's just me be so asthmatic.
Speaker 2: The next day I feel like I feel like a
Speaker 2: Victorian waif child, or like like a like a librarian
Speaker 2: who's also a phlegmatic.
Speaker 1: Word what what what is the relationship between Morgaze and
Speaker 1: parent dictated by on Morgaze's side right now?
Speaker 2: Uh, repeat that question because it was gibberish.
Speaker 1: What is the relationship between parent and more Gaze dictated
Speaker 1: by on more Gaze's side right now?
Speaker 2: Well, she's she's not pleased about the banners, right Why
Speaker 2: because she's worried to challenge to Elaine.
Speaker 1: Because she says he is.
Speaker 2: Because she loves that girl, because she birthed her.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because's she's like, I can't think he's cool. He's
Speaker 1: explicitly in open rebellion against the Crown of Andor.
Speaker 2: Is he like, I think he's kind of like I'd
Speaker 2: like to not be And everyone else is like, but
Speaker 2: what if you were vibes?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is exactly what's going on.
Speaker 2: And he's like, I don't I want that smoke? Thank you.
Speaker 2: The Two Rivers that's my best friend's baby, mama. The
Speaker 2: Two Rivers was part not on Jerry Springer. The Two
Speaker 2: Rivers was part of and Or, and he'd named himself
Speaker 2: lord of it. Flying that wolfhead banner. At least the
Speaker 2: flag of Manethren had been taken down. Flying that had
Speaker 2: been nothing short of an open declaration of war. Morgaze
Speaker 2: no longer bristled every time someone named him a lord.
Speaker 2: But she also didn't intend to offer him any help,
Speaker 2: not until she determined how to move him back beneath
Speaker 2: the cloak of the end or and monarch. I'm just
Speaker 2: gonna pour his tea. Besides not giving him any help
Speaker 2: other than actively helping him every.
Speaker 1: Day, Morgaze grudgingly admitted Fayel is sharp enough to give
Speaker 1: any advice I would have. Fyo was actually a perfect
Speaker 1: compliment to Paren. Where he was a blunt and leveled
Speaker 1: lance at charge, she was a subtle cavalry beau. The
Speaker 1: combination of the two, with Fyol's connections to the Saldean
Speaker 1: throne was what really worried more Gaze. That's fair. I
Speaker 1: mean Paren is married to somebody in the line of
Speaker 1: succession of a four in nation.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and how far from that line of succession is
Speaker 2: she because Tonby is a cousin.
Speaker 1: She's not far. Yeah, I think it would go Tobiah.
Speaker 2: Davam's only living child.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so.
Speaker 2: Gang Gang, I.
Speaker 1: Guess she's like third in line.
Speaker 2: That's and we're in war times, so like I've been
Speaker 2: predicting to Nobia's death for before so because I'm like,
Speaker 2: ain't no way, there's no way we're getting.
Speaker 1: To the end of the book.
Speaker 2: And that man isn't king of the broken crowd.
Speaker 1: Where where is Tanobia right now?
Speaker 2: With well kind of with Randy. She's with that group
Speaker 2: of Solan.
Speaker 1: Which is where.
Speaker 2: Not by the border?
Speaker 1: No far matting, that's it. What are they going to do?
Speaker 2: We don't know. They're still chatting. What are they going
Speaker 2: They've been chatting for six books now.
Speaker 1: They've tried set up a meeting with Rand But to
Speaker 1: what end? This is?
Speaker 2: This is corporate America. This is they're gonna make a
Speaker 2: meeting about setting up a meeting to have a meeting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, anyway, I just wanted to mention that, uh.
Speaker 2: Godly Mary uh.
Speaker 1: More Gaze is now passionate about being a lady's maid. Okay, listen,
Speaker 1: whatever brings you joy, whatever brings you joy.
Speaker 2: Fine.
Speaker 1: Uh she is a little bit worried about the fact
Speaker 1: that she seems preoccupied with her ability to provide service
Speaker 1: and value to others, which I get, Uh, Aleandra Paren,
Speaker 1: What is paren really trying to do overall here with
Speaker 1: all of these followers of his Is he trying to
Speaker 1: rally them to the.
Speaker 2: To the to the No, He's just like, just I
Speaker 2: have a headache.
Speaker 1: He's trying to get everybody to go home.
Speaker 2: Yeah, He's like, I need a pepto bismol and a nap. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's paren right now.
Speaker 1: And I just rest.
Speaker 2: Thank you my wife. That was stressful. And my cortisol
Speaker 2: levels are through the roof from done with this. I
Speaker 2: have like my body started to become addicted to the adrenaline.
Speaker 1: We killed Massima. I'm just trying to go home. I
Speaker 1: want everyone to go home. I'm sick of this. And
Speaker 1: Alian was like, why are you recruiting people? Because I'm
Speaker 1: not recruiting people. I'm just not turning people away because.
Speaker 2: People are starving.
Speaker 1: Bro. Yeah uh and Beryline is like, you do understand
Speaker 1: the apocalypse is like next week.
Speaker 2: Don't remind me, Like it's been on my to do
Speaker 2: list for fifteen bucks.
Speaker 1: Rand is gonna need an army and parents like, well
Speaker 1: then he can fucking get the army himself.
Speaker 2: Friends and so helpful.
Speaker 1: Holly Ander's like, I'm following you.
Speaker 2: I've discovered boundaries. I'm codependent no more. By Melody Beaity.
Speaker 1: If Galden will march for Tom and guiden, it should
Speaker 1: do so beneath your banner, and what his parents.
Speaker 2: Say, I don't have a banner.
Speaker 1: Fuck my banner.
Speaker 2: Take the burn the banner.
Speaker 1: Yes, that is verbat him what he gets, and that one.
Speaker 2: Guy who spent all this time making those banners is
Speaker 2: so bombed.
Speaker 1: He gets Will l seen to come in, notably, who
Speaker 1: doesn't have a nose as big as bands, and he
Speaker 1: comes in with the banner his nose. Yeah, he comes
Speaker 1: in with the banner, and uh what is was? Parent does,
Speaker 1: in fact say, what burn all the banner? Burn every
Speaker 1: single copy of this banner?
Speaker 2: Will is like I handmade those, use of the bitch.
Speaker 2: I spent so much time. I've spent so much money
Speaker 2: on Etsy getting those made for you, And asked.
Speaker 1: Once again, parent, Paren is this wise? And Paren goes,
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's wise, but it's what I'm doing. Uh.
Speaker 2: Here's the thing about parent. Parents the most unintentionally funny
Speaker 2: person in these books.
Speaker 1: He really is.
Speaker 2: He's really the funniest. Like like like Matt, Matt tries
Speaker 2: to be funny, Parent is so god damn funny.
Speaker 1: Well, I think I think that's also a difference between Sanderson,
Speaker 1: Matt and Jordan, Matt Jordan Matt. Pretty fucking funny, but
Speaker 1: not on purpose.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, Parent unintentionally hilarious. Parent unintentionally hilarious, like
Speaker 2: the shit he says, just like i'd like, you know what,
Speaker 2: that's fair.
Speaker 1: There's a parent joke next chapter that is not even
Speaker 1: a joke that I really like. We'll get there when
Speaker 1: we get there anyway, Missouri tells Parent he's a fucking idiot,
Speaker 1: and Tam is like, Paren, Paren, do not burn all
Speaker 1: the banners.
Speaker 2: Then Parent's like, I'll burn it. I'll burn it.
Speaker 1: Like I can't hear you over the sound of all
Speaker 1: the banners burning. O kidjit live me Hi, I'm trying
Speaker 1: to get He's like, Tam, sweet shock, I've done with
Speaker 1: people following me. You're gonna take everyone back to the
Speaker 1: two rivers, and I gotta be rid of everyone barelyne Goes.
Speaker 1: I wasn't aware that you needed to be rid of us.
Speaker 1: You seem far less reluctant to accept my support when
Speaker 1: demand the services of my winged guardsmen in rescuing your
Speaker 1: wife Boom, paren Goes. I appreciate your help, all of you.
Speaker 1: We did a good thing in Moulden, and not just
Speaker 1: for fai Yel and a Leandre was a thing that
Speaker 1: needed doing. But burn me. That's over now. If you
Speaker 1: want to go on to follow Rand, I'm sure he'll
Speaker 1: have you. But my ashaman are exhausted and the tasks
Speaker 1: I was given are complete. I've got these hooks inside
Speaker 1: me pulling me back to Rand. Before I can do that,
Speaker 1: I need to be done with all of you. I
Speaker 1: just don't think that's true. Man. I think you could
Speaker 1: bring the whole army back with you.
Speaker 2: I think you probably could.
Speaker 1: Anyway, they talk about ashaman for a while. I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't really.
Speaker 2: Feel and they find out that they can do circles.
Speaker 1: Uh, yeah, everybody. It's a little bit of logistics. Logistics, logistics, logistics.
Speaker 1: Any thoughts on any of this? Uh?
Speaker 2: Logistics.
Speaker 1: Yeah. There's a funny part where they were saying and
Speaker 1: it is like, oh, I bet Rand's and Kyrie and
Speaker 1: parent goes, no, he's not, And they go, how do
Speaker 1: you know? That goes Uh, don't worry about it, he's
Speaker 1: just not. How does he know? Yeah? Kind of, but
Speaker 1: what are the vibes dictated by the flashes? Yeah, the
Speaker 1: flash isn't tavere and and he literally feels himself being
Speaker 1: pulled physically in the direction that rand is.
Speaker 2: Yeah. So yeah, Oh I got you an audition, by
Speaker 2: the way, what for a video game?
Speaker 1: Oh? Cool? Thanks? Hey, everybody that's exciting do Monday? Okay? Cool?
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: The wise ones are like, we could do circles with
Speaker 1: the Ashaman, and parent is like, why didn't you tell
Speaker 1: me this earlier? And they're like, you didn't fucking ask?
Speaker 1: They go, you seem hardly interested in your position as chief.
Speaker 1: Most of the time. Respect is a thing earned and
Speaker 1: not demanded. Phaman were sick. When I first thought of this,
Speaker 1: it would not have worked before. This is the appropriate time.
Speaker 1: There is the question, therefore I have done so Vara.
Speaker 1: I really like how the Ashman not the Ashma the
Speaker 1: I you'll always useful names, and I boughta uh you know,
Speaker 1: Randel Tho, a goth and all that m Did they
Speaker 1: do it with a GWayne and gwyn alvir? Yeah? They
Speaker 1: always do full names because they don't have surnames.
Speaker 2: Right, Remember they don't. How do they tell the difference
Speaker 2: between like one avienda and another avienda of.
Speaker 1: The so and so, sept of the such and such Aiel.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's so long to say, yeah, like you know,
Speaker 2: I was Ali. Last name initial, yeah, Dad.
Speaker 1: I don't know, man. Maybe they just have really varied names.
Speaker 1: There's very few characters in these books with the same name.
Speaker 1: It's the same thing in Malazan. Malazan has like two
Speaker 1: overlapping names. Both of them are Pearl.
Speaker 2: Huh.
Speaker 1: Ericson wrote a demon in the first book named Pearl,
Speaker 1: and then several books later he introduces a spy named Pearl,
Speaker 1: and people were like, don't we already have a Pearl?
Speaker 1: And he was like, I forgot about the other Pearl.
Speaker 2: I forgot the other world.
Speaker 1: One time somebody asked somebody asked him in a Q
Speaker 1: and A is so and so this character's father because
Speaker 1: of these similarities and this and this and that and
Speaker 1: the other. And he said, I don't remember. We're gonna
Speaker 1: say yes.
Speaker 2: Were you say yes? Uh? Yeah, that's really real. It's
Speaker 2: like you, you you plan everything out, you do your best,
Speaker 2: but like she gets away from you, you know, she
Speaker 2: gets away from.
Speaker 1: You, all right. Anyway, Uh, they're making a party to
Speaker 1: go to uh, to go to Kyrie in Incidentally, the
Speaker 1: party is six people and that's enough that qualifies as
Speaker 1: a party. Definitely, definitionally, allie, six people. I think that's
Speaker 1: a party. We're agreed, that's that's a party. All right.
Speaker 2: No, wait, now they get a party of six or
Speaker 2: so together.
Speaker 1: Parent thinks it's too big. Actually, uh, now what do
Speaker 1: we actually have here? I'm messing around? Uh, Scoutsersen and
Speaker 1: Kyrie in saying it goes, I would like to be
Speaker 1: with the group, and pairing goes. I suppose take your
Speaker 1: warders to Maidens and pell I dare be innobtrusive if
Speaker 1: you can, and file goes. Also Comeil and Elias and
Speaker 1: we'll go and oh.
Speaker 2: Yeah, cam a meal and what's your face? My lord?
Speaker 1: We are in dire need of paper and new pen nibs,
Speaker 1: not to mension another delicate materials.
Speaker 2: And paren is like what delicate matic?
Speaker 1: Why the fuck are we worried about paper and pen nibs?
Speaker 2: Did you not bring enough underwear on this vacation to
Speaker 2: make sure if you shit yourself six times in one
Speaker 2: day that you'd have more underwear?
Speaker 1: No, husband, I think this is a good suggestion. We
Speaker 1: should send one person to collect supplies. Ballwer, would you
Speaker 1: go and fetch the things yourself? If Ball was like,
Speaker 1: I'm about to go spy mode, if my lady wishes it,
Speaker 1: spy Mode I have ached to visit this school. The
Speaker 1: dragon has opened and Kyrie and spy Mode they would need,
Speaker 1: they would have the supplies we need. Paren goes. I
Speaker 1: suppose you can go then, but nobody else light anymore,
Speaker 1: and we might as well send the whole burning army through.
Speaker 1: So again that I MOD one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
Speaker 1: eight people we.
Speaker 2: Going spy mode mode mode.
Speaker 1: Much of this book is focused around Morgaze accepting her
Speaker 1: new identity is not a queen. Much of this chapter,
Speaker 1: I should say, do you want to talk more about that?
Speaker 2: Or do you feel like you feeling so self imposed?
Speaker 1: Well, she abdicated, I mean, she legally abdicated.
Speaker 2: But no one was there. Does he could just say
Speaker 2: take back SI?
Speaker 1: I know, but she cares too much about the.
Speaker 2: What what about the rules of take BACKSI Well.
Speaker 1: The other thing, though, is Elaine has now you know,
Speaker 1: yeah I do.
Speaker 2: So she could just be like, surprise it's me.
Speaker 1: Would that help or hurt Elaine's position?
Speaker 2: I don't know. Probably heard it.
Speaker 1: Probably heard it. Yeah, she's kind of out of the
Speaker 1: game now. It's interesting. It's interesting because like I feel
Speaker 1: like Morgays and Swan have very similar trajectories in the Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, And I don't know how to feel about that.
Speaker 2: I have a lot of feelings about it, are we
Speaker 2: I just want to see a man go through it all?
Speaker 1: Yeah. During the first weeks following her silent abdication, she'd
Speaker 1: hope to find a way to return to and Or
Speaker 1: so she could be a resource for Elane. However, the
Speaker 1: more she'd considered it, the more she realized she had
Speaker 1: to stay away. Everyone in Andor had to assume that
Speaker 1: more Gaze was dead. Each queen had to make her
Speaker 1: own way, and Elaine might seem a puppet to her
Speaker 1: own mother if more Gaye returned.
Speaker 2: Now, if Elaine doesn't recognize her own mother, that'd be.
Speaker 1: Sure, I would. Well, who were they about to crash into?
Speaker 1: By the way, what person we've talked about this, right? No?
Speaker 1: What person who would definitely recognize more Gaze?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, her steps step yeah, is like mommy, step mommy,
Speaker 2: what are you? What are you doing here? Arianna? What
Speaker 2: are you doing here?
Speaker 1: Uh? If more Gaze were beyond that, More Gaze had
Speaker 1: made any many enemies before leaving, why had she done
Speaker 1: such things? Her memory of those times was cloudy, but
Speaker 1: her return would only rip open old wounds. Cups, cups, cups, cups, cups, cups, cups, cups, cups, cups.
Speaker 2: I gotta ticket for the long way round the way?
Speaker 1: Is that a what's that movie?
Speaker 2: It's a shit? What's up?
Speaker 1: The pitch perfect? Yes, you know my favorite thing. I
Speaker 1: haven't seen that movie. I have seen the video of
Speaker 1: Anna Kendrick watching herself in that scene. Have you seen this?
Speaker 1: She's watching herself do that scene with the cups and
Speaker 1: like the stacking, and then she just goes, I'm just
Speaker 1: looking at my cleavage right now? Can I say that?
Speaker 1: Is that all right for me to say? I'm very distracted.
Speaker 2: I gotta tell your father long way around?
Speaker 1: Uh? Perhaps she should have done the noble thing and
Speaker 1: killed herself. What if anemys of the throne I know,
Speaker 1: discovered who she was, they could use her against Eline
Speaker 1: the same way that the White Cloaks would have. Okay,
Speaker 1: we made it through that, it's all right.
Speaker 2: Uh well, let her let her process. Yeah, she's been
Speaker 2: dramatized and we're.
Speaker 1: Gonna keep on covering that. After these ads. Welcome back,
Speaker 1: Ali is putting her feet in my pocket. I don't
Speaker 1: know why, but it's fine. Uh like is comforting, it's nice?
Speaker 1: Uh the blah blah, oh God fucking help. Then who
Speaker 1: shows up Ali? Your favorite character?
Speaker 2: Was there? Gonde again?
Speaker 1: No? Tal yes, yeah, talenwork comes in. He'd followed her
Speaker 1: practically NonStop since Malden and why. While she'd complained of
Speaker 1: it out of principle, she didn't mind. After two months apart,
Speaker 1: he wanted to take every opportunity to be together. Looking
Speaker 1: into those beautiful young eyes of his, she could not
Speaker 1: entertain the notion of suicide, even for the good of
Speaker 1: and Or. She felt a fool for that. Hadn't she
Speaker 1: let her heart lead her.
Speaker 2: To try you with the not you, not you with
Speaker 2: the sexy voice.
Speaker 1: Malden had changed her, though she'd missed telling for dearly
Speaker 1: and when he'd come for her when he shouldn't have
Speaker 1: risked himself. So he was more devoted to her than
Speaker 1: to end Or itself, and for some reason, that was
Speaker 1: exactly what she needed. She began to make her way
Speaker 1: toward him, balancing eight cups in the crook of her
Speaker 1: arm while carrying the saucers in her hand. Maigdan Paren
Speaker 1: said come back here please, and Talin for you might
Speaker 1: as well come in. I can see a lurking out there, honestly,
Speaker 1: not as if anyone's gonna swoop down and steal her
Speaker 1: away while she was inside a tenth full of wise ones,
Speaker 1: and I s to die and more. Gaze was like, motherfucker,
Speaker 1: you are following fight. You'll around the same way. Get
Speaker 1: over your shit. Par Parent's like, I was given a
Speaker 1: suggestion back when you first joined us, and I think
Speaker 1: it's about time I took it. Lately. You two are
Speaker 1: like youths from different villages mooning over one another in
Speaker 1: the hour before Sunday ends. It's high time you were married.
Speaker 1: We can have a Leandra do it, or maybe I
Speaker 1: could do. You have some tradition you follow where gaze
Speaker 1: is like uh and talent boar is like oh, and
Speaker 1: he goes go change into something nicer. If you want
Speaker 1: gather any you want to have witness, be back here
Speaker 1: in an hour and then we'll get this silliness over
Speaker 1: with and we're gay.
Speaker 2: Every little girl has always dreamed of having her wedding
Speaker 2: referred to as getting her this silliness over with. O
Speaker 2: case says by a random young adults.
Speaker 1: No, a parent and I borrow I will not be
Speaker 1: back here in an hour to be married. I've never
Speaker 1: given her a British accent before. Why have I given
Speaker 1: the other ones a British accent but not their mother?
Speaker 1: I'm inconsistent? Wh as fuck? Somebody flame me? Uh? If
Speaker 1: you want tea served, or your tent cleaned or something packed,
Speaker 1: then call for me. If you wish your clothing washed,
Speaker 1: I will oblige. But I am your servant par and Ibarra,
Speaker 1: not your subject. I am loyal to the Queen of
Speaker 1: and Or. You have no authority to give me this
Speaker 1: sort of command. Parents like, uh, what the queen yourself
Speaker 1: will demand this? Forcing two people to marry because you're
Speaker 1: tired of the way they look at one another like
Speaker 1: two hounds you intend to breed and then sell the pups.
Speaker 1: I didn't mean it that way you said it. Nonetheless,
Speaker 1: how can you be sure of the young man's intentions?
Speaker 1: Have you spoken to him, asked him, and if you'd
Speaker 1: him as a lord, shouldn't have mattered like this? And
Speaker 1: parents like he got frostbite just because you left anyway?
Speaker 1: But megdan parents said, he does care for you. You should
Speaker 1: see the way he acted when you were taken like woman,
Speaker 1: it's obvious. Matters of the heart are never obvious. If
Speaker 1: I choose to marry a man, I will make that
Speaker 1: decision on my own. For a man who claims he
Speaker 1: doesn't like being in charge, you certainly do like giving commands.
Speaker 1: How can you be sure that I want this young
Speaker 1: man's affections? Do you know my heart? And Parent is
Speaker 1: like not parent, I'm sorry, talan bar is like, oh, honestly,
Speaker 1: all of them that are like, ah wow, he was
Speaker 1: an emotional one. Well, he needed to know that she
Speaker 1: would not she would not be shoved around, not anymore.
Speaker 1: First Gabriel, then Valda, now parent, Ibarra talan Borr would
Speaker 1: be ill served if you were to receive a woman
Speaker 1: who married him because she was told to do so.
Speaker 2: Honestly, real and Parent.
Speaker 1: Is blushing and she goes, you're young at this yet,
Speaker 1: So I'll give you advice. There are some things a
Speaker 1: lord should be involved in, but others he should always
Speaker 1: leave untouched. So real you learn the difference as you practice,
Speaker 1: but kindly refrain from making demands like this one until
Speaker 1: you've at least counseled with your wife. Then she leaves.
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, good boundaries.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and uh then Sulan comes back and is like a,
Speaker 1: there's white cloaks over there, and that's the end of
Speaker 1: the check. That's basically it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I love Sue and Buzzet. There's white cloaks
Speaker 2: over there. It's not even our or whatever they would
Speaker 2: do because you know they've got the Russian eazin.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeh probably it's not like the excellent doing isn't
Speaker 1: really Russian. It's just some kind of like fucked up
Speaker 1: random hodgepodge of different Eastern European things. Thanks for listening, everybody.
