On the whole, I'm able to ignore all the heavy borrowing Pacat has done from Dorothy Dunnett and Mary Renault bc she does put her own spin on it, but occasionally there's a scene like this spear-throwing bully prank that's just lifted almost entirely (in this case from The Persian Boy) and then it's just impossible to not be a little embarrassed for her 😬

I can't quite remember what Jokaste's ultimate endgame was (I wanna say some convoluted triple play for Damen's actual benefit?) but I can't help feeling that if her scheming makes her such a terrific opponent, she ought to be better at it.

Damen, you great noble Gryffindor idiot. Sometimes you're so fucking slow on the uptake I'm convinced you and FitzChivalry Farseer MUST be related. #ultimatefandommashup
