    Blake's Fun, Gay Life (Bonds 1.2)

    Blake's Fun, Gay Life (Bonds 1.2)

    Jenny (she/her) and Malia (she/her) discuss Bonds 1.2. Blake flees to the protection of the Hillsglade House (which is definitely a demesne, trust Malia) and encounters some roadblocks along the way. Malia loves every character in this story named Rose but Jenny does not share her enthusiasm. 
    This week's discussion question: Rate Blake’s survival skills. How do you think Rose would have fared in his place?

    Blake's Sad, Straight Existence (Bonds 1.3)

    Blake's Sad, Straight Existence (Bonds 1.3)

    Jenny (she/her) and Malia (she/her) discuss Bonds 1.3. Blake arrives at the Hillsglade House and fails to provide enough specific legal language to the reader. Nevertheless, he succeeds in finding a hidden room that may or may not be Grandma Rose’s demesne filled with information about demons that may or may not be fluffy.
    This week's discussion question: Out of all the books in Grandma Rose’s library, which one would catch your eye and why?

    Grandma Wears Prada (Bonds 1.4 & 1.5)

    Grandma Wears Prada (Bonds 1.4 & 1.5)

    Jenny (she/her) and Malia (she/her) discuss Bonds 1.4 and 1.5. Blake recognizes that staying in the house is the safest thing and then immediately leaves it. He’s schooled in the subtleties of wording by both some Faerie and a practitioner. Rose saves the day with the power of BS. Malia revisits some old predictions and Jenny designs the perfect implement. 
    This week's discussion question: Using Laird’s international politics metaphor, describe the world of Pale (feel free to include any of the following: Kennet, BHI, Sargent Hall, etc.).

    Ain't Nothing Wrong with Basic Bitch Pepperoni (Bonds 1.6 & 1.7)

    Jenny (she/her) and Malia (she/her) discuss Bonds 1.6 and 1.7. Blake awakens! Rose doesn’t? Malia begins to understand how demons can fuck with your karma and Jenny defends ordering a pizza with just pepperoni on it.
    This week's discussion question: If you were to Awaken today, what would your Sight look like?

    She Wants the D[emon] (Gathered Pages: 1)

    She Wants the D[emon] (Gathered Pages: 1)

    These words are our own for us alone and nothing we write here is meant to be binding.
    Jenny (she/her) and Malia (she/her) discuss Gathered Pages: 1. We get an insight as to why Grandma Rose is so horrible and learn about her childhood and adolescence. Malia speculates about Grandma’s middle name and Jenny learns another word for “interesting” and then promptly forgets it. (Lithuanian is hard, okay?)
    This week, we’d love it if you would ask us some questions! Please send us whatever questions you have for us.

So Happy This Exists

I’ve been pretty stressed out lately, and this podcast has been an excellent reprieve. Thanks for making it.
