#i certainly will

let's embrace softness, imperfection, living on a whim, putting effort into useless things, pausing to talk about nonsense, sitting in comfortable silence in the shade of trees, looking at ourselves and others honestly and openly.

Summary:

I encourage and urge everyone who stayed silent on the attacks on Saturday and that now feel that they ‘simply can’t stay silent on issues of human rights’ to do some serious self reflection on why it is that only now that Israel is responding they feel this way.

Why do you only feel that way for the Palestinians?

Why didn’t/don’t you feel that way for the Israelis?

I've too many emotions and can't deal with them so I gotta make a post about it. Oh my god.

Can I just say that I cried for unnecessary reasons during this ep. The main reason being my pure boy eunseom finally saw some light and what finer light that having the momo tribe looking out for you. But I'll get back to that later

I've too admit that the opening wasn't necessarily all that great. I understand that they were trying to recap and had to cover the formalities but the opening lacked the oomf I was looking for. This Ep in arthdal was mostly about people coming to terms with what we all saw in part 2. Tanya seeing her beloved wahan. The asa tribe glorifying tanya. The daekhan forces at her service (cant wait to see mugwangs heart ripped out that little piece of trash)

Tagon establishing himself in power and glory basically eveything going well and happy for them. Pfft aramun. I can't wait for eunseom to get to arthdal and claim his title. But really from the arthdal side of things it was a little lackluster. Heartwarming and amusing yes but it didn't have that strong force I expected. And that's fine because eunseom took care of it all for the rest of the Eps.

It's going to be an interesting power struggle up at arthdal. I'm curious as to what saya, tanya, tagon and taealhas moves will be. And who will side with them. What's mubaek and yang cha's role going to be (WHAT WAS WITH THAT MOMENT YANGCHA AND TANYA SHARED). Also I don't even want to mention that sleazy wahan member. I can't even remember his name but that piece of shit better be beat up by the end of this series. I want him to cry and beg eunseom and dalsae for forgiveness.

Now lemme get to what i actually wanna elaborate on. Eunseom and everything to do with eunseom.

I think I spent the whole of part 2 whining about how eunseom was treated. I mean the dude is still dragged through the mud and freezing in cold climates and basically still fighting someone or the other. But there's joy in watching eunseom lose that helplessness he developed in part 2. He's learned his lesson and he's come back still kind but not nearly as naive. I'M SO THRILLED THAT THEY DIDN'T RUIN HIS CHARACTER BY MAKING HIM ALL DARK AND WITHOUT A SENSE OF HUMOUR. But instead they retained all that is great about eunseom but gave him more strength. The right mental kind and I can't wait to see what he uses that for. This boy is headed for great things okay. Mark my words eunseom is going to shine. Lowkey wish he'd find some clean clothes and like wash his face or something though. I guess that's why we've saya. The other side of the coin the neat, dainty and classy side.

Everything about the escape, to them heading to the location Satunik told them about to meeting that stunning Karika - Xabara of the Momo tribe. I'm always so amazed by the world building arthdal has worked on. Its stunning to say the least and I thought the neanthals were as exotic as arthdal could get but nope in walked in the momo tribe. Considering how the daekhan forces decided to walk away that's saying a lot about their power. EUNSEOM HAS A GROUP LIKE THAT BACKING HIM I'M SO ECSTATIC I CANT EVEN EXPLAIN.

On a side note two absolutely adorable moments this ep.

1. Eunseom and Ipsaeng hugging each other as they nearly freeze to death (I had to hold back the tears)

2. Ipsaeng and eunseom playing with that baby (I cant even, these precious boys)

Ipsaengs the kind of character arthdal was missing and the perfect comrade for Eunseom. He's not definitive in his stance and he tests eunseom's patience constantly. All things that help make a good leader eh? He be teaching eunseom how to put up with people. He's certainly the comedy this show needed and I love how theyve now tied him into the story.

So now eunseom be wandering around half bare back with his igutu marks showing. Completely unaware of the fact that his mark is now on a flag carried by such a fierce tribe. I'd been waiting for that scene since part 2 ended. It was certainly worth the wait. I cried when Karika said that until they find and repay him they'll carry the flag around. It was precious and I was just happy because this is such a huge step for eunseom okay. Its his ordinary kindness that opens these doors for him. It's just... Precious....
