ngl I'm mildly confused about and very intrigued by mrs coulter's relationship with her daemon in the hdm tv series. her daemon's part of herself, yet she hates it so much, she can't stand her daemon, and he's scared of her in turn. so is she at war with herself? is this the last part of herself that still has some humanity, fear and guilt? is she really so fucked that she's at odds with the entire world and herself? is this part of why she can't imagine why it would hurt other people to be severed from their daemons? because she'd love to be rid of him once and for all?

that fucking destroyed me, in a good way. started sobbing during the ‘every atom of you and every atom of me’ scene. brief pause in the sobbing to acknowledge mary’s daemon. crying again at will’s face opening the portal, that last kiss (god what a kiss), and then his poor little face as he closed it. lyra was sobbing about as violently as i was, which just continued throughout the botanic gardens bench montage. god. fuck. goddamn you, phillip pullman, for introducing the idea of tragic romances to me at the age of roughly fourteen and never letting me have a moment’s rest since.
