@moss_fiore The obsession with writing craft books and making your story hit certain beats and arcs accordingly. It's making everything formulaic. Imagine if every relationship you were ever in did that. You'd be bored, right? You fall in love unexpectedly. It's why it's called falling ffs.

@coffeenfantasy @robinhobb It's incredible. Finished years ago. Still think about it. Want to revisit it. But don't want to ruin the magic.

@isaacturnersong You're missing the mobile phones so the people can ignore both the TVs and each other

@klhicks912 I got my hair dyed once and it was the most painful 2hours of my life never again. I took my book but she still talked to me!

@AustinFriars_ A lot of readers find 1st person immersive but I find the opposite - like I know I'm in a story because someone is telling me. I'd much rather be watching it unfold (3rd person).

@Author_PCorrell I feel this. I try to channel my dad, who worked 16 hour shifts in a tyre factory to support his family. He was the happiest person I know. I am still trying to understand it.

@briefhottub @lauuzer THIS! And also admit to himself that he was wrong to think he wouldn't get attached...and in this case being wrong is absolutely the right thing to happen, it doesn't make him a bad spy but a regular human...

@briefhottub @lauuzer Agree, he's constantly assessing everyone else's emotions, so he's very emotionally intelligent, he's just repressing his own feelings. (And I think Fiona is a great example of how this can be taken to the extreme and be very detrimental.)

@briefhottub @lauuzer The people who say that don't understand subtext I guess. And they're missing the point, that he's trying NOT to have feelings for her. It's what makes their dynamic interesting, and is also central to the wider plot of spies not being able to live normal lives. How is this bad?
