these death fakeouts are so funny and I keep falling for them every single time

Tom 🥺❤️

DAMN truly the best battle scene I’ve ever read, so riveting and worth the build up

“though he’d never had any such friends, just Tom, his one and only great friend, who’d come to him after death”

my beloveds I love them SO bad

MZD writes character SO well bc what do you mean Lindsey Holt was introduced as the guy bullying one of our heroes, we haven’t seen him since, he returns for one scene and now I love him

oof I’m a wreck that was inevitable and one of those moments where you simultaneously want a character to make opposing choices. MZD is a generational writer genuinely, I’m so scared for what is to come

i trust the vision i really do but if we don’t return to the canyon soon i’m going to scream

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

“Moonlight alone beheld horse and boy and maybe in the end moonlight was who it was for.”

prettiest prose ever

“I guess we all know that feelin: something about us that isn’t rightly expressed because of how we was raised. Maybe there’s still a trace, some part still unharmed, still unexpressed.”

TOM 😭😫 my son
