“i don’t need a boon… this is just because you’re hurting”
sam, my love, my heart. i’m so so happy to see this. this is just like what she did for lola and her dog, on a much much larger scale.
sam sees someone hurting, she sees that there is something she could do to lessen that hurt, and she reaches out to do it. it’s so unfair that she didn’t have someone that did the same for her, but she can make sure that other people don’t have to go through it without help. my beloved.
obsessed with persephone’s outfit this episode!! the floral top complements her so well, plus the hair is just *chef’s kiss*
thinking about how sam’s first instinct with lola was to help her get her dog out of the lake, with no other justification than “she’s a fire genasi, water hurts her, and this is something i can do to help.”
thinking about persephone saying that sam learned how to be mean and manipulative from her mother and penelope. sam growing up under pressure and surrounded by their toxicity, learning to give as good as she gets and then even better.
sam lashing out as a survival technique, because caring hurts and people can’t hurt you if you hurt them first (even when they can). sam imitating the biggest female presences in her life, because that’s how you find yourself when you’re not on solid foundation (they’re still teenagers, god).
i love her and the way persephone embodies her. and i’m so here for the seven being there for each other through all of their traumas and struggles.
“should i cast lightning again at the skeleton?”
“NO!”
“it’s just an idea”
ahhhh Sephie is the coolest and i love her Sam!!
the conversation between sam and penelope is Gutting. the simple fact that they know each other down to their bones, and knows perfectly what to say and how to say it in order to hurt each other the most. neither of them willing to let the mean girl facade slip even when one of them is in Literal Hell is just…shiver inducing.
penelope, who delights in pain!!! and sam, who does not!!!! my god, persephone and brennan acted the hell out of this scene
