bonus:

Molly mentions he has very warped sense of time, and he does not seem to be able to realistically perceive how many years have passed since the last time he and Molly have seen Lìr, until it's too late. He himself says that he is not too willing to use magic on himself, even if for healing purposes, because it "dulls" the feeling of being mortal and human.

But most importantly he probably has an underlying, paralyzing fear of losing his loved ones. Schmendrick is the one who is stubbornly clinging to the idea of younger, heroic Lìr, despite all evidence that poor Lìr is old and withering (on the subject, I wanted to mention a lot more things but I want to avoid spoilers, even though it's very telling how he reacts and what he does towards the end of the story). Just imagine how he would react at the slightest sign that Molly is unwell, or if she ever happens to experience a health scare or an injury (the tree that fell on her that she mentions, anyone?). The thought of outliving someone he loves and cares about, after who knows how many years of not being able to form life-long connections because those around you will invariably die of old age while you are stuck in time, would probably send him tailspinning in a panic.

Ship Tournament, Round 2 — Match 3 / 15

Lae'zel/Wyll

"Lae’zel has the Vlaakith propaganda, the creche, the glorious destiny she was promised if she obeyed hard enough. Wyll has the Blade persona, the noble hero story, the pact he made when he was young and desperate and trying to save people. They’re very different people, but both of them know what it’s like to have your identity wrapped around duty until you barely know what you personally want. I’d love them post-game especially, when Lae’zel is learning what freedom means and Wyll is trying to live as more than the role everyone projects onto him. They’d argue constantly, but I think there’d be so much respect there. Wyll admires courage. Lae’zel respects action over empty words. They would both see the real thing in each other."

vs. Dammon/Karlach

"Dammon totally has a crush on her, he always smiles so cutely at her, Karlach can (could?) fantasize about him in her origin run, they're both total sweethearts, need I say more?"

That's what friends (and cats) are for

Goodness, it's been a while since I posted anything! Have a cute batstarion as an apology!

I've just uploaded the reworked version of 'Bat'tered by the Storm, nothing major has been changed I've just fixed some of the clunky writing and added more detail/several scenes to make it read better. It's jumped up nearly 8000 words so I did add a little bit :P

As always I had a bunch of help from Dracoscriptor who betaed the new version for me :D
