“[If] you're in this world for comfort, you've come to the wrong place… And if you're doing what you're doing because of the way people will feel about it – you're definitely in the wrong business. What you do has to be done because of how you'll feel about you…” “There are no other rewards. If only because no matter what you do, no one will ever think the things about you that you want them to think. Not even the Powers.”
– @dianeduane, Deep Wizardry

The young wizards brainworms are like dormant parasites and then they strike and then I can't think of literally anything else for the next hour
Oh my god the first primary argument highlighted between Nita and Kit being about the logistics of sustainable water purification is simply wonderful
And I know that that wasn't the point but I still love them so much they're such nerds

the whole "you took the Oath" scene in Deep Wizardry just makes me think of that one post that's like "technically the contract was signed by a minor and is therefore not legally binding" and BOY HOWDY do I hope this book takes the same route
also tumblr has rotted my brain so bad that every time the sharks' rough skin is mentioned, I think of that accursed "sharks are so smooth though" post
Sometimes when you walk on water, there are sharks. Sometimes when you're saving lives, you lose them. Sometimes sacrifices have to be made.

this is our shame
this is the whole ocean's glory
this is the song of the twelve
They swam away through the darkening water. S'reee set the pace; it was a quick one. “Why did we have to leave in such a hurry?” Kit said.
“There aren't many wizardries more powerful than a Calling,” S'reee said as she led them away. “He'll weave those whales' names into his spell, and if they agree to be part of the Song, the wizardry will lead them to the place appointed, at the proper time.”
“Just by singing their names?”
“K!t, that's plenty. Don't you pay attention when someone calls you by your name? Your name is part of you. There's power in it, tied up with the way you secretly think of yourself, the truth of the way you are. Know what a person's name means to him, know who he feels he is – and you have power over him. That's what Aroooon is using.”
That was a bit of information that started Nita's thoughts going in nervous circles. How do I think of myself? And does this mean that the people who know what I think can control me? I'm not sure I like this...
— Deep Wizardry (Diane Duane)
*through gritted teeth* must i accept this barren gift? -learn death and lose my mastery? then let them know whos blood and breath will take the gift and set them free: whose is the voice and whose the mind to set at naught the well sung game- when finned finality arrives and calls me by my secret name.
*clenches fist* not old enough to love as yet, but old enough to die, indeed. the death-fear bites my throat and heart, fanged cousin to the pale ones breed. but past the fear lies life for all- perhaps for me: and, past my dread, past loss of mastery and life, the sea shall yet give up her dead!
