So with season 3 of the show fast approaching and a general idea of the material it will cover what are you looking forward to seeing on screen? What scenes do you think they might fumble and which are impossible to screw up?

For myself I think I'm most looking forward to Road to the Spear. Book 4 is my favorite and I think this will be incredible on screen. I'm also looking forward to seeing the battle of Emond's field, and hopefully the first appearance of the Finns with Matt. I feel like Perrin finding out about his family is going to be heartbreaking and I don't think they can mess that up even. I'm more worried about iconic scenes in the Wastes like the meeting at Alcair Dal, and Perrin's meeting with Noam.

So how about all of you? What are you looking forward to?

I was reminded on a lemmy post today of Little Duck's Disruption dialogue where she says

"Looks like Alad was so keen to make the sale, he didn't close every back door. Greed makes a person sloppy, hotshot, remember that. Enjoy the boost."

That got me thinking and I was curious what other Tenno's favorite mission dialogues are. Could be theme for a whole mission or one line. Fittingly I think my favorite is probably Little Duck in disruption, though Conjunction Survival gets an honorable mention with

"The Grineer and Corpus came here in search of treasure but only found oblivion. They are trespassers here. You are not.

And of course who can forget the terror of Mott itself Corrupted Vorr's speech haha

So I was wondering if anyone else had favorite chapters of the whole series, or sequences of chapters. For example Road to the Spear and Dedicated are incredible and some of my favorite chapters, but when I really want to feel things I listen to "A visit from Verin Sedai" through to "The Tower Stands". That sequence is moving and uplifting and tragic all rolled together. Another honorable mention goes to Perrin's conversation with Boundless in the Towers of Midnight epilogue which made myself and my trans partner cry ugly tears.

So what are your favorites and why?

Just got to see True Body live with Uniform and Pharmakon. Fantastic show. My partner described them as a mix between Iggy Pop and Bauhaus

Explanation:

I know there is a lot of doom going around. I certainly feel it. It feels like every fearful anxious nightmare has come to pass and like we are headed into oblivion. It's okay to feel that, it's okay to need some time to get back up.

That said, the fight isn't over. We're on the ropes, we've taken a beating, our leaders have failed us yet again, and our neighbors are actively pushing for the end, but the fight isn't over until we die or give up. Its not much of a meme, but I listen to these words from Andor when I need to remind myself, hopefully they'll find someone who needs to hear them today.

There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy. Remember this. Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they've already enlisted in the cause. Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward. And then remember this. The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that. And know this, the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empire's authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege. Remember this. Try.

Thanks for reading/Listening here's a bonus Maarva speech:

Hi friends,

I am here on behalf of my sister, who is stuck in Asheville at the moment. Power, cell service, food, and water are scarce and difficult to reach in the flooded streets and my sister is getting sick. I have been able to find some info on places distributing food and water, and have sent along what I can to her, but I was hoping some of my comrades here could help gather information on where distribution is happening and what routes to get around are workable. So far the best resource I have found is Citizen Times.

So please Hexbears and anyone else who sees this, could you add whatever you can be sure of to the community map and share helpful info for folks here? Thank you comrades!
