Magic changes the magician. Always. Magic has a price. Always. And the battles they once fought are the battles they will fight again. A principality hangs in the balance of a war between cultures. Between conquerors. But those who stand for honor and champion freedom have not yet begun to fight.

So here it is, y'all. Good news. Bad news. The good news is, a lot happens in this chapter. The bad news is that a lot happens in this chapter. My beta suggested I split the chapter when it breached 20k words. She's right. So. One more chapter of Salineas next week.

Some moments you hoped for. Some moments you probably dreaded. And I know some of you aren'tgoing to be happy with who lives and who dies. But! Four - maybe five Halfmoon chapters await you. When we leave Halfmoon again, will be striding into the reunion sequence. The chapters after that will culminate in new battles. Higher stakes.

I think Adora as her regular self is more or less at the physical peak of what an Etherian of her size and species can be. Obviously there are girls much bigger than her like Scorpia and Huntara but still, but Adora is shown being able to handle them easily.

Home is wherever Adora is, whether it’s the Fright Zone, or an ancient space ship drifting through space, or a hideout deep in the Whispering Woods—it doesn’t matter where, or even when, as long as Adora’s there, that’s where Catra belongs. It’s the steady beat of Adora’s heart, the warmth of her hand on the small of her back. It’s the light in her eyes when she looks at Catra, like she never stopped being hers even if Catra sometimes still feels like she’s long forfeited the right to have her—to love her—anymore. Home is Adora’s body: every gash and bruise and broken bone they’ve ever shared.

Chat is this anything?

Like ya we just gotta block them and keep enjoying our show. But I do want to point out that’s a sapphicphobic microagression I see, even in non she-ra spaces! Like I have indeed seen ppl try to say that sapphics are all “scary and intimidating and too woke” because one queer woman was mean to them. It’s so surface layer when ppl say “ohhh catradora ruined the showw” because their steadiness with queer rep in she-ra is so fragile! Quite literally, with straight ships in straight shows, it’s rare that one ship will ruin the show for someone! You can dislike catradora, but to say that she-ra promotes abuse because of them, despite the fact that they have spinnetossa and scorfuma- two fluffy ships… that say “hey they’re not a monolith, not all of the sapphic ships are exactly like catradora”, is just undermining the representation in the show. And another complaint I’ve seen was “it has more sapphic rep than achilllean rep! There’s really only Bow’s Dads-” oh, go put your misogyny elsewhere. Go watch Heartstopper and be quiet.

Mind you! Glimmer, Entrapta, and Mermista are great bisexual and sapphic characters, even though they have bf’s, it’s just that I was discussing sapphic ships in this post so I didn't really get into their characters

TL;DR: claiming catradora promotes abuse… factually incorrect (see my tags) but honestly if they trigger any viewers then yeah sure go voice your opinion, I disagree but it’s chill, you do you, I don’t have any beef with that. Claiming she-ra as a show promotes abuse, that’s inherently sapphicphobic to spinnetossa and scorfuma. Letting a different ship in the show ruin them for you. Acting like they’re not part of the show too.

Do not let overbearing catradora anti’s get to you. Your love for she-ra, love for sapphicism, lesbian rep, sapphic rep, queer rep, all that… is much stronger.

Happy pride month!! And Heyyy Adoraaa :3
