pagerunner-j:shoppingandshipping:veshkashaw:”how to break my heart in literally 30 seconds” a guide by laura bailey as vex’ahlia when percy doesnt remember anything in the feywildWhat absolutely killed me about this was that she was laughing along with everybody else when they were talking about how her title might be have been essentially revoked–even her frantic searching for proof that Perch had, in fact, given it to her was comedic.  She didn’t start getting genuinely upset until this moment, when she was certain that she’d gotten the title back but, for all she knew, Percy never wanted to acknowledge the moments they’d shared again.She had what everyone believed she was most concerned about, and she would’ve traded it in an instant to have that connection back.Think of where Vex still was at that point, and continued to be in the following episode: still needing reassurance, still unsettled by her experiences in the Feywild, still looking for someone to tell her she’d made the right choice. And think of Vex having had someone come to her in the middle of all that and be kind, and genuine, and offer such meaningful support, and then…forget, and have a false memory grafted in that turns his whole interpretation of the moment into something embarrassing that he’s trying to cover up as hastily as possible. Think of Vex facing down the notion that what had been a gift is now going to be treated forever as something he’s basically ashamed of, that what had been a true personal connection is gone. Think of Vex trying to tell people she’s a baroness now, with that coloring the entire situation.Now try not to cry.(I didn’t manage it. Thank fuck Greater Restoration fixed this. Leave the modify-memory spells on the shelf, please, at least when it comes to your friends.) -- source link
