Well this I was not expecting!

2020-09-21 14:30:41 +0000 UTCI don’t know if they look at these comments too much but 179 isn’t marked as Explicit in iTunes and it isn’t a lot of cussing but there is at least one instance, of course I don’t know the qualifications for explicit marking but thought I’d make a comment
Ginger
2020-09-17 22:56:23 +0000 UTCSeemed pretty accurate to her character tbh. Her entire thing has always been about putting aside her emotions. It would have been powerful to have her break down but would it be accurate? She already confronted her emotions last episode
Chekhov
2020-09-17 22:47:12 +0000 UTCNot gonna lie, I thought Basira was going to be the one to go.
Issendai
2020-09-17 16:32:31 +0000 UTCJust my theory, but I think subconsciously, he didn't want to hear Daisy sneaking up on him. He even says that he felt it was right for Daisy to hurt him one last time. As for Basira sneaking up on him, I think the statements are his weakness. That's why Martin is there, to protect him in sorts during these times. Martin has slapped him twice to snap him out of statements so I wasn't surprised that Basira was able to sneak up and listen. This, I fear, is also going to come back to bite (The Archivist) us eventually.
Heather MacKenzie
2020-09-17 16:24:39 +0000 UTCIn a world full of monsters, it worries me that Martin is still the most human. Even Basira is giving in.
Heather MacKenzie
2020-09-17 16:22:02 +0000 UTCI love basira, she’s one of my top 3 faves, but i feel like her reactions in this episode were handled extremely poorly. Jon seemed more upset about what happened than basira did, i can’t really understand why. did she just not care or is she just bad at expressing emotions ?
Matteo
2020-09-17 16:00:25 +0000 UTCYes. I'm very concerned that he was able to be injured and did not heal right away. I feel like there is some foreshadowing there. Back in S4, he couldn't even cut off his finger without it repairing itself in seconds. I know he told Martin when they were in the 1st Desolation that there could be hurt but it would resolve after leaving, but I really thought he was only talking about Martin! The fact he seems surprised doesn't sit well.

The Leo!
2020-09-17 10:50:38 +0000 UTCIs anyone else concerned about Jon's powers hearing this? He didn't notice Basira arriving, didn't notice her leaving and didn't realise she could hurt him until she did, and he was actually properly hurt by her. I don't know, it might just be that he was emotionally distracted and overwhelmed by all the Everything, but it seems from previous stuff that it takes active effort to hold stuff BACK rather than the other way around... I am Concern

2020-09-17 08:39:43 +0000 UTCI literally just want an ASMR podcast from Alex. 🥺 SO BAD.
Jacquelyn Graef
2020-09-17 06:55:33 +0000 UTCI've always found Basira's character incredibly interesting - her reasoning her way out of the unknowing is one of my favourite scenes. You can always practically hear her mind work... Loved this episode, especially Daisy's voice and the sound effects of carnage. You can really visualise the monstrosity she's become.
Lurkin
2020-09-17 06:40:55 +0000 UTCWow, so powerful. And worth the wait, the sound was astonishing! Godspeed Basira.
LainyJP
2020-09-17 05:31:16 +0000 UTCAmazing episode. This season is continuously kicking my ass, I was very stressed about what Basira would do. Thanks for working so hard on getting out the best quality content every week!
Catherine Hills
2020-09-17 04:58:43 +0000 UTCwhen the statement ends 8 minutes into a 22 minute episode you know its time to buckle in
james evelyn
2020-09-17 03:58:15 +0000 UTCprobably desolation/hunt! i would lean towards hunt though bc it’s pack loyalty plus the fear of being hunted so i feel like that covers the fears in the statement pretty well
Samantha Banaszak
2020-09-17 03:37:28 +0000 UTCJon's a better man than me, i have no sympathy for daisy

EmZeez
2020-09-17 02:08:00 +0000 UTCthe only episode that has affected me as badly as this one is the one where Jon pulls Daisy out the buried. so that should tell you how im feeling right now. I knew it was going to end like this, and i feel a quiet sort of relief knowing that its finally over. its sorta like grieving for her because her self was already essentially dead, even if her body was still walking around. sigh. this was a sad one guys, thank you for the emotions.
Paola Ivanna
2020-09-17 01:34:46 +0000 UTC"Honestly, I'm not sure how I feel about anything right now." Ouch, Jon, that hurt. Too close to home. Also gotta wonder how that affected Martin. Amazing episode as ever, y'all. Sad Basira is making her own way back to the Tower, but I get it.

Mitzy Czemierys
2020-09-17 00:24:51 +0000 UTCWas lying in bed listening to this and found myself gripping my pillow way too hard more than a few times so good job on that tension. Thankyou for fabric rustles as always :D
Laura Bailey
2020-09-17 00:19:44 +0000 UTCOhhhhh god, was Daisy only able to hurt Jon because he subconsciously expected her to??? MY FEELINGS......... in seriousness I love that despite all of Jon's inescapable trauma and fear of Daisy, he still loved her at the end of things, and he had no desire to see her hurting. He wanted to see her get better, he wanted it even knowing it was impossible, that. Fucking. Hurts. But it's very true to life so thx again for the soothing trauma ily guys :')
Anthony
2020-09-16 23:56:19 +0000 UTCI am. Beholding It 👁👄👁
Jester
2020-09-16 23:45:34 +0000 UTCA wonderful send-off :')
sAZAndorable
2020-09-16 22:11:10 +0000 UTCAh ha ha! You almost got me that time! Tears welled up, but they did not fall, so it doesn't count! Excellent episode! A new benchmark on the long journey of forcing me to feel things again.
Noell S.
2020-09-16 21:47:44 +0000 UTCWell. God DAMN.
MuddyHippy
2020-09-16 21:29:19 +0000 UTCI listened to this and then listened to Spotify to calm me down, which proceeded to play Work Song and Howl in immediate succession so in short, I'm now dead
Maddie
2020-09-16 21:26:29 +0000 UTClmao I feel you Martin, I too am a dumbass who has both gasped and screamed preemptively
Bruna G
2020-09-16 21:18:46 +0000 UTCOh boy. Well that was definitely worth the delay! I was genuinely worried Basira was going to join Daisy. I can definitely understand her wanting to be alone right now. And man I love Martin. And I second that I'm glad we had a nice martin bandaging Jon's wounds moment and him expressing grief. All in all just yeah. That was an episode.
Killian
2020-09-16 21:14:08 +0000 UTCI'm terrified of listening :)
Idris
2020-09-16 20:57:59 +0000 UTComg. you know those rings with audio waveforms engraved on them? martin and jon should get a matching set. they can wear each other's squeaky toy soundwave

2020-09-16 20:55:40 +0000 UTCThe Archivist: *squeaky toy noise*
Aydenburd
2020-09-16 20:50:36 +0000 UTCok can i just say, thank you for softening things a bit with that Martin Tenderly Bandages Jon's Wounds Hurt/Comfort ASMR. that was exactly what we all needed, and i love how it gave jon a moment to talk through some grief, which is really lovely and complex and real in coexistence with everything he expressed in the last ep. LOVE how we're lettin everything just Be, man. but yeah uhhhh wow!! the way the statement involved a deep morally ambiguous but heartwarming bond that really seemed to parallel daisy and basira's relationship... and then the reveal that we were hearing about daisy's VICTIM... that was some TASTY cruel irony. deeply sad of course, but hot diggity dog, such satisfying storytelling!! Sadisfying
martin kachow blackwood
2020-09-16 20:45:31 +0000 UTCuh oh o boy
Mantha Grant
2020-09-16 20:42:42 +0000 UTCHmmm, I'm assuming this episode's entity was the Desolation?

Ari
2020-09-16 20:29:15 +0000 UTCBrilliantly written! I was actually a bit nervous for Basira there (seemed like they may be going out together)
Medilia
2020-09-16 20:28:46 +0000 UTCGod damn that was a hell of an episode! Each and every person who worked on that episode did spectacular! I swear my jaw is still on the floor. Seriously you all deserve high praise for all of it
Paige Owens
2020-09-16 20:27:17 +0000 UTCOooooooohhhhhhh boy 😅💔🥺 This was such a good episode. Thank you!!!
Ellie Fogleman
2020-09-16 20:26:04 +0000 UTCWow! That was worth the wait. One of the most powerful and well written statements yet and I love the nuance of the character interactions in this one. And the sound effects were soooo good! Just all the layering of different sound. Jon's complex interactions with Basira and Daisy were brilliantly done. Just an all around amazing episode that packed so much in without ever feeling rushed. Thanks guys!
ThirdFromTheLeft
2020-09-16 20:24:25 +0000 UTCThis episode reminded me just how much I love martin, that boy can fit so much murderous intent and also compassion and love in him! Thank you for your hard work on getting the episode out! <3
