First Date Idea

My viren gets the star arcanum theory is waiting in the shadows

and if during Viren's dark magic coma we see Harrow again? Sarai? K'ppar even? Lissa??? Younger Soren and Claudia? A taunting Aaravos even? Altered memories? What then

Me when I try to justify why I like him and it just turns into a character analysis again

Me every time I talk about viren it just becomes

Has layer

Did they really need to add the wilhelm scream when Viren decked K'ppar in the teaser? (yes, they did) lmao

i was thinking about that little poem Callum was reciting in the trailer. what if it has to do with Deep magic? In the discord Q&A they said that there would an important Deep magic spell coming up in s5 and ever since then i've been thinking what kind of magic even is that and i came to this conclusion.

"Do not ask how the ocean's blue

or why the tides their time do keep,

to love is to simply to know this;

the tides are true as the ocean is deep."

I think he is reciting a peom he has found in one of the books from the library. I interpreted the poem like this: the poem is talking about how you shouldn't ask why or how something is because there is no point in searching for an answer you won't get. It's like asking why do you love someone; it's a feeling. You can list a bunch of reasons why you love someone, why you have the urge to protect them but you will never truly know what the reason is- because feelings are confusing. The third and fourth line are simply explaining how loving someone is: if you're in the shallow waters of loving someone, you'll only know and love their 'shell' which is made to protect the person's real feelings. But if you go into the deeper waters where you don't know what you will find, you are essentially embracing the person's true nature; all of their scars, all of their fears, all of them.

And how is this connected to Deep magic? Well, i think Deep magic is the type of magic a person can only understand if they've been in the deep waters. If they have been where others have not- going through things like losing a loved one, losing something important or losing themselves. If we choose Callum for this, he has been through all of that- losing a loved one (his biological father, then his mother, then his stepfather and he almost lost his brother); losing himself (when he performed a Dark magic spell in s2 and when Aaravos possessed him; literally losing the control of his own actions) and losing something important ( though only briefly, he lost Harrow's letter). Going through so much makes one have certain feelings. And that is exactly what Deep magic is. It also contrasts Dark magic in which you are ruining yourself (your feelings) for a 'greater good'. The point of Deep magic is knowing your feelings and having them, no matter if they are joy or sorrow. They are feelings. Dark magic is presented as an emotionless act, that only people who have no mercy or empathy for others (as well as themselves) can do. They are the opposites. Maybe Deep magic can reverse Dark magic, who knows.

At this point we need tdp to turn into a famous Tik Tok sound or for Aaravos to become a Tumblr sexyman or for this show to get more online recognition because I can't take this anymore

I love you Viren TDP

Something about Aaravos being freed having direct ties to a bloodmoon…

This part was funny to me…Ichi ur stalwart companion is on some freak behavior

The whole massacre thing is crazy but the delusion and obsessive parasocial relationship with World Hater is even crazier

I need to see Bakugami getting brutally humbled before this arc is over ngl
