We thought the title could double as what Feyre actually did to the Weaver and what she wants to do to Ianthe by the end of the chapter lol. https://linktr.ee/bookbreathingbtchqueens [https://linktr.ee/bookbreathingbtchqueens] Intro/Closing Music Credit: Indie-Pop by Ivan Luzan Find the song here: https://pixabay.com/music/indie-pop-indie-pop-170731/ [https://pixabay.com/music/indie-pop-indie-pop-170731/] Find Ivan Luzan here:  https://pixabay.com/users/ivan_luzan-34614814/ [https://pixabay.com/users/ivan_luzan-34614814/] Episode Overview:  00:00–Cold open, intro song, episode intro and summary 3:03–Rhys just trying to help? 7:16–Weaver description 7:58–Why does the Weaver say “What are you?” to Feyre? 9:32–Anger growing at Spring 10:41–Is it her voice or Rhys’s voice?? 13:18–Is it significant that Feyre never says anything to the Weaver? 13:44–“I am Feyre Archeron and I will not be afraid” 14:10–“black blood”!

We had fun deciding whether or not Rhys was kicking his feet with Cassian or trying to play it cool still and the general hounding we think the IC gave him for this little stunt. We also wonder lots (per usual honestly) about possible valg characters with the main one for this ep being the Weaver of course! Is she a stygian spider? Why is she just..given the entire land in the middle?

There’s some interesting subtle tensions between the characters and honestly, multiple places where we had to give some credence to possible evil Rhys theories. We are not usually huge supporters of those but these were compelling so of course we entertain them! Check it out and let us know what you think! Did Rhys intentionally under inform Feyre about the Weaver for his own gain? Does he manipulate her by scaring her about her family and sending flashes of dead bodies into her mind?
