Insurgent Ch38

what my mother told me when she saved me from the tank during the simulation attack. Something about having watched the trains since the attack started. I didn’t know what I would do when I found you. But it was always my intention to save you.

But when I go over the memory of her voice in my mind, it sounds different.
I didn’t know what I would do, when I found you. Meaning: I didn’t know how to save both you and the file. But it was always my intention to save you.
I shake my head. Is that how she said it, or am I manipulating my own memory because of what Marcus told me? There is no way to know.

Of course, it’s impossible to know how long it’ll last, so we can’t assume this holds true for any further lines. But it’s nice to know where we are for a minute. (more…)

The Transfer (Divergent)

Now that I know just how retcontastic these books are, sticking strictly to publication order seems like the only option. It’ll probably still be a mess, but maybe it’ll be possible to plot the overall trajectory at least.

Allegiant Ch1-2

And we’re going to be starting this thing I guess.

I had planned to use the lag period between last book and this one to work on these posts in advance, but I was non-contagiously sick and when I’m like that I like to play RPGmaker horror games, so like half of October is done now instead, and then I was super busy. And now I’m suddenly contagiously sick and even more miserable, but I’ve run out of month, so let’s crawl through this anyway.
