Eliza. Must get Eliza.
Sentient curtains…
Interesting power dynamic. The Anchor is the servant of The Witch.
The anchor is a doting adopted parent, looking after their wee witchywizz!!
I think they see it as a partnership. Nyree had a line about this back in Chapter 9, when the jungle paths are opening for her, something like “Me and Tapu Moto have an understanding”
More like a friend now, I think!
I agree that it’s more of a partnership. Maybe symbiotic would be useful to describe it? Witch and anchor bring different abilities to create a whole, new being. I like the idea that they look out for each other.
My first reaction was more of a Master/Pet dynamic. The Anchor finally got a neat new Witch and wants to take extra special care of him. It’s an unusual type of Witch and it gets easily overwhelmed by crowds and unfamiliar sights, so be sure to give it plenty of shady spaces where it can be in limited company and not get overstimulated.
Of course Ben is losing his mind over the scholarly implications of this whole business! I love that he takes a moment to ask after Mal’s headache, though.
I love that Ben thinks about how much Eliza would enjoy this anchor talk.
What I just love about this page, is how amiable O’Malley has become towards Benji. He had a hell of a day and doesn’t want to deal with the wizards nosey questions.
But instead of telling him to shtup off like chapters ago, it’s just “hey mate, I get you. But not now, ok?”
I love it 💗
And Ben so excited to see Eliza excited.
I just noticed: He changes from “I’m going to get Eliza” to “I’m going to find Eliza.” So he’s going to catch her up, but elsewhere.
Do you think that Ben has romantic feelings for Eliza, or am I just imagining things?
I mean… they’ve been dating for four years, ever since the end of Witch Hunt.
“The fourth anchor pacified” Nice one, Ben! Well played :D
I just got it *snerk*
That is just the sweetest thing, Widdershins is looking out for him 🥹
Aye aye mate
I’m getting sniffly when I think of this ending. I don’t even remember how I found Widdershins, but I’m very glad I did.
I got here from darken
I got to darken from here :)
That /smile/ in panel three! Ahhhh, my boy is doing so well! I love Mal so much!
