It's so bittersweet, and Aabria & Sam play it so perfectly. His life is all about time and attention, and that's fair - it's what he does, it's who he is. Her life is about constant work, and that's also fair - the entire functioning of the floating city ultimately rests on her shoulders. They have perfect chemistry, but there's no way they could make a life together, at least not for very long. Not without one of them fundamentally changing who they are. This actually happens to marriages in the real world, which is why it feels so real.

I have to imagine the characters are at least a little bit inspired by Sam and his real wife. There's a similar clash of lifestyles but real sam obviously handles it much better.

@@RachelTension I've seen the "Between the Sheets" interviews for both of them, so yeah. He is married to a badass lady who's at the top of her field, and he obviously thrives on attention. But I think it's cranked way lower in real life. Maybe he's thought about what it would be like if their differences were far more intense than they are in the real world, and applied that here. But the way those characters push each others' buttons, and things like the shoulder-touch bardic inspiration, it's like you can see the chemistry. They *feel* each other. It's just that who they are and who they want to be makes them being together impossible.

One could easily think it's Loquatius' fault that their marriage failed because of him being so flirty and pretentious, but after the second episode I can guess the reason their marriage failed is because Laerryn focuses more on what she can get than what she already has and Loquatius likes to live the moment. Laerryn lives and works on a floating city full of wonders that goes around the world, but instead of enjoying that she has overworked herself to reach the goal of entering other planes. Necessity and curiosity are what pushes people to explore, but what is motivating Laerryn and Patia is just pride and greed.

2:54 HAD ME ACTUALLY CHOKE

The fact that we know they fail, but we are cheering for some kind of win, some glimmer of something good... and likelihood that nothing good will happen on the eve of the apocalypse is so heart breaking

WHEN HE TOUCHES HIS FINGER WHERE THE RING ISNT your _tearing me apart_

2:30 when you deadass ask someone "can we be together when we die tonight"

2:58 - _"You can go back to hating me."_ Whenever a character makes that kind of deal, and then the response is _"I don't hate you."_ *Oooooooh!* Just- *OOOOOOOHHHH!!!* That pulls the heartstrings quite well. Like, he gave up on winning her over and just wants to have a time of peace just for a moment, and then her finding out that all this time apart he believes that she hates him. just- *_OOOOOOOOHHHHHH!!!_* That's good. That hits the good spot. That good dynamic. Bittersweet relationships hit that really good spot.

Excuse you, we didn't need those foreshadowing flashes towards the end there. T.T Just let them have the sweet moment... But for serious, gorgeous art. Amazingly done. Love Quay's little blushies when she said he always looks beautiful.
