(pg 301)

So that is the end of the chapter. I used up ALL of my posts to make it this far. Hell yeah go me.

So damn, that is a lot of information. Spender’s Conclusion with Forge, and his victory but at the cost of almost losing his cage of whatever the hell he is possessing.

It sounds like Spender knows the angel that Forge was trying to find. Was she the shadow thing that Spender locked in his chest? It was said that he defeated a high powered spirit, and it fits with Forge not getting his information right.

Day is cute. I like her and her cupid powers. Though her not remembering them being introduced is weird, unless she has amnesia or something. I can’t wait to see cupid.

We have an evil shadow organization people. Just our luck.

The kids….damn they are all getting isolated. Hell, even Spender is.

Isaac is shunned for not knowing anything..again…when the new kid Max gets to know things. Don’t think I didn’t notice how far away he was sitting from the rest of the group.

Isabel first lost her friend, then she was left alone without support by Spender, and then Ed gave her support only to leave her alone while her grandfather chewed her out.

Spender feels guilty over the choices he made and is going to push himself further into his work and leave everyone behind. And don’t think I didn’t noticed the fact that Lucifer was the one to try and seal the Big Evil Shadow in a cage with light. I see what they are doing.

And this is Day fucking Three for Max, and already he almost died multiple times, have no idea what insect saved him, no idea who to trust, learn many things about ghost mortality that he probably didn’t want to know, and is now trapped in town with no way out.

And now you have Johnny and his crew. They make me tear up so fast, I fucking love all of them. Their own internal investigations is adorable, especially when all 4 of them saw them fucking flying like wonder woman.

But what really gets me excited is Forge possessing Johnny. This is going to be a tag team from hell.

Think about it: Johnny and Forge both have beef with the Activities Club. So how cool would it be to see them working together to fight the members/teacher. Like a minor villain team up.

But then, you need to think about the motivations here, that’s where it gets good.

Because Forge literally is a war veteran who was disillusioned by what he did/done. Can speak the language of the pure and tainted, has given up on his life, and is basically trying to find purpose. He wants to serve someone good, for the hopes of feeling justice, clensed, make up for past mistakes and the evil he did in whatever Spirit War that had happened.

And he got Johnny

Johnny, the weirdo who will always look for a fight for no reason. You isn’t tainted, but sure as hell isn’t pure either. He is boiserous and weird and fucking loud.

BUT!

He always looks after his own. Never uses his friends if they don’t want to. Always tries to support his buds, never judges the weird shit they do, manages to calm them and bond with them, even after seeing some weird shit.

What I am saying is that, Johnny isn’t what Forge wanted, but damn if it isn’t what Forge needed. Because can you imagine Forge becoming protective over him, and actually bringing out whatever emotions Forge had lost so long ago? Because I can, and I can’t wait to see it.
