TM Character Appreciation Week | Day 2: Eliot Waugh

“Dear Q,

Hell of a thing getting you out of that dungeon. Richard showed up, finally, for which I suppose we should be grateful, though G-d knows he doesn’t make it easy.

We wanted to stay, Q, but it was hard, and getting harder every day. The centaurs said it wasn’t working. But if you’re reading this then you woke up after all. I’m sorry about everything. I know you are too. I know I said I didn’t need a family to become who I was supposed to be, but it turned out that I did. And it was you.

We’ll meet again.

TM Character Appreciation Week | (belated) Day 1: Julia Wicker

“Julia knew things Quentin and the others didn’t. She hadn’t had the Brakebills faculty standing over her for four years making sure she colored inside the lines. She’d talked to people Quentin never would have talked to, picked up things his professors would never let him touch. Her magic had sharp, jagged edges on it that had never been filed down.

It was a different kind of education, and it made her different. She talked differently. Brakebills had taught them to be arch and ironic about magic, but Julia took it seriously. She played it fully goth, in a black wedding dress and black eyeliner. Janet and Eliot thought it was funny, but Quentin liked it. He felt drawn to er. She was weird and dark, and Fillory had made the rest of them so damn light. Quentin included. He liked it that she wasn’t quite all right and she didn’t care who knew it.

TM Character Appreciation Week | Day 3:  Penny Adiyodi

“For Penny to know you is for Penny to loathe you. Perpetual annoyance might be the best way to describe his demeanor. It’d be less infuriating if Penny awasn’t so talented. So gifted, in fact, that the true limits and nature of his powers may be unknown. Brakebills may be the best thing for a loner like Penny but he’d never, ever admit that.”
