#1 - 3 (Andrea, Keri, Kandace)

Aww yes, I adored the conviction with which Francis said that line.

But #14 is so sweet and gut-wrenching.

5) adjective (describing a person): hairy

Any time after 7 PM CST, 8 PM EST will work for me for trivia.

Don't mind me, I'm just over here doing some major editing of my last post. I feel very strongly about this topic.

Hairy is SO perfect (but, it's actually the opposite for the character being referenced

).

Thanks, Keri!

So 7 PM CST / 8 PM EST is 5 PM PST (my time). I'm not available until at least 6:30-7:00 PM PST. I know that's pretty late for some of you. Does it still work?

I know she never did with Bash or he-who-shall-not-be-named, but I think of it as: if you believe you love someone and want so badly to convince them (and yourself, for that matter) of said love, as I believe she did with both men, you'll say and do anything to keep them. Mary was in a very fragile state at both times, and she was using both as a means to cope and hide. However, with Francis, it's real and passionate, so much to the point that it probably freezes her up a bit. She loves him, believes that he must know of her love, and doesn't feel the urgency to blurt it out every second to reassure him. They just know.

Maybe I'm suffering from a bout of wishful thinking, but I have always kind of perceived Mary to be that way. Plus, writing my fic has put me in that zone that it's what I've come to believe in order to write from her POV. I completely agree though. I want her to express her love more in S3.

I expect serious

-ing.

BEAUTIFULLY SAID.

Agreed. YES. 100%. I'm glad you feel strongly about this topic, Kandace.

Yikes...I hope hairy still works.

6:30 - 7:30 PM PST, is only 8:30 - 9:00 PM for me (CST). That would still work for me.

Yeah this would work for me too, particularly 9:00 p.m. CST but I can try and get here earlier if needed

.

Also Kandace, I second Keri's beautifully said!

KLynn92295 · 09-28-2015, 09:29 PM

I'm glad the time works for you ladies.

I thought it could be considered late as some have work early in the morning.

So we'll go with 7 PM (PST), 9 PM (CST), 10 PM (EST)?

OH, and hairy works.

But...all I can say is the character needs a razor, and a word prior to "hairy" makes it sound as if he/she is smooth as a baby's bottom.

**kerbear28** · 09-28-2015, 09:59 PM

That sounds great to me. It is a little later than I should be staying up...but trivia is worth it.

I'll try to tweet out an announcement using the Reign

twitter tomorrow morning.

Good night, my lovelies.

bscgirl99 · 09-28-2015, 10:28 PM

Sounds great to me too

. And trivia is definitely worth it

.

Goodnight Keri

Hey Guys

De Medici Queen · 09-29-2015, 04:25 AM

#1 for me

We need a new thread soon

do you guys want to do a rewatch this week?

**kerbear28** · 09-29-2015, 07:02 AM

New thread time! I just got to work, so I can't help close this thread or open the new thread. But, since we're gearing up for the premiere, I'll drop off some title suggestions from the last two episodes of Season 2.

OH, and I definitely want to do a rewatch this week.

2x21

“I failed to protect you once before. If anything were to happen to you, I would never be able to live with myself.” ~ Francis
“Very well. I'll do as you ask. I'll leave at first light.” ~ Mary

“I understand your anger at me, but if you could just look past it, you would see how sorry I am.” ~ Mary

“If my guards hadn't defended me, I would be his prisoner now.” ~ Mary
“Did they try to hurt you?” ~ Francis

“Doesn't Mary's life mean anything to you?” ~ Conde
“It means a great deal. Which is why you're the last man I'd entrust it to.” ~ Francis

“If I thought for a moment that Condé could guarantee your survival, I would have agreed.” ~ Francis “Surrendered? Lost the castle and your life without a fight?” ~ Mary
“I am the king, but I am also a husband.” ~ Francis

“And come tomorrow, barring a miracle, we will both be dead.” ~ Francis
“Just know, whatever happens, this is not the end I dreamed for us.” ~ Mary

2x22

“One of you was going to die. I couldn't let it be you.” ~ Mary
“You are my husband and my king.” ~ Mary
“He was a traitor. And I love you, Francis. I always have. Always.” ~ Mary

“It's been a long time since I've seen you smile.” ~ Mary
Well, I've never gotten so close to losing everything. And then gotten almost all of it back.” ~ Francis

“You asked me if I could ever forgive you. For Condé. For everything that's happened. And at the time, I couldn't even conceive of it. I thought, if anything, it would take years.” ~ Francis
“I'll wait. Even if it takes that long. Not because we're wed or because I have nowhere else to go. But because I love you.” ~ Mary
Well, you've proven that. And more.” ~ Francis

“If only it were that easy.” ~ Francis
“It isn't. It's terrifying and nearly impossible. Especially if we think we can save each other. We can't. We can only love each other.” ~ Mary

De Medici Queen · 09-29-2015, 11:14 AM

I think I like this one

“I'll wait. Even if it takes that long. Not because we're wed or because I have nowhere else to go. But because I love you.” ~ Mary

and also

“One of you was going to die. I couldn't let it be you.” ~ Mary

**kerbear28** · 09-29-2015, 12:48 PM

Hi ladies!

Just popping in again. I love both of those choices, Issi!

I don't have a preference as to which one we use first...but we definitely should use them both.

We just have to remember to bring the survivor and mad lib over when we open the new thread.

I think this is the current vote count:

#1 - 4 (Andrea, Keri, Kandace, Issi)

Crumps5 · 09-29-2015, 01:17 PM

I just can't resist...I vote #1 too

De Medici Queen · 09-29-2015, 01:37 PM

seems like we have a winner. who wants to open the new thread?

**kerbear28** · 09-29-2015, 01:46 PM

YAY we have a winner!

I totally shouldn't be here

, but if you give me a minute, I can open the new thread, OFFICIALLY announce the survivor winner, and bring over the mad lib.

ETA: NEW THREAD

I hope you don't mind, but I had to shorten the quote to make it fit. Let me know if you'd like me to tweek it.
