YES. So we can ask ourselves questions like "What if for the first few years of his life Tori had a father who wasn't phenomenally abusive".

MORE FANFICTIONS HOLY SHIT. I don't know what to title this piece of shit. So fuck it. Whatever. Just a google doc so helpfully titled ROPES. surely that expresses its wonder Anyway. Warnings for hangings and Aon's horrible hanging kink. Because book seven got to Aon and in a way she did not expect. god damn them threats of hanging
Yesssssssss you meet my trash son. Who is fantasy aon. Complete with needing friends to tell me to go the fuck to sleep and eat.
I'm looking forward to the next book. And entire book of people telling Jame to be a proper lady and Jame going "no fuck that" How do you pronounce Jame anyways bc I keep reading it as Jamie
I was all "book one and you've seen Tori?" and then a bit later realized that was because they're now printing books 1 and 2 as one volume, 3 and 4 as another
I've never heard Pat say 'Jamethiel' but the instinctive English pronunciation has a short 'a' and stress on the second syllable; I don't think that's right. She wouldn't be Jame or Jamie as a nickname if the longer name didn't have the same sound. So JAYM-eth-eeyell? Though one wonders if the terminal '-el' has a secondary stress, being IIRC 'of God'.
I'm not really put off by the idea of Jamie and Jame being short forms of Jamethiel with a short 'a' sound, honestly. Because nicknames are often weird and stupid things.
So I got bored and decided to record pronunciations of these fucking names. Went through the names of the Highborn and the Tastigonians. As well as some other miscellaneous names. The Highborn The Tastigonians Fuck I forgot to say Tyr-ridan
i pronounced it like the terminal e was from jameth. so like jaym-eh where as jamie would be jaym-ee. so jamethiel would be jaym-eh-thee-ehl but then part of that is cause it felt weird to me to have tori be tor-ee and jame to be jaym without a second part to it so tori and jame is tor-ee and jaym-eh to me
So a podcast is starting on January 3rd, 2019. Thing's gonna be a weekly affair. One chapter done a week and one hour about said chapter and the books a week.
