Hey, you don't have to share everything. Why spread bank accounts when online payment is enough for mobile pay?
This is an unspoiled network podcast.
This is unspoiled, covering the Dresden Files. Book 18, 12 months. Chapters 51 and 52. In these chapters, we have a conversation with Thomas that doesn't go the way I'd hoped it would go. And then we have... An invitation to enjoy your evening from Dracul. That's not ominous. Not at all. Welcome to Unspoiled. Unspoiled.
Welcome to the show, everyone.
I am Natasha. I'm Rashawn. Sorry.
Yeah. This is why you can't look at the chat, Rashad. No, it was the Kindle. I was getting my pages ready. Because you know how it doesn't always open exactly where you need it to be. So, sorry.
Oh, man. I'm like, what is she? No, that I just know. Did she lose me? Yep. She was. She was. But she did lose me. But it was different. It was different than what I meant. All right. So tell me about your feelings, especially on chapter 51. Listen.
Buck Thomas is ungrateful, raggedy, fucking, you did this, sir. You caused this entire fucking situation. And I'm really sorry your girlfriend got infected. But guess what? You had plenty of fucking resources and friends you could have said something to. How dare you? How dare you? That's what I think. How dare you with your fine ass looking all good and healthy and shit. You know why you look good and healthy? Listen. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I was not pleased. I couldn't believe that he was coming. And I know he's hurting. His heart's got ripped out from his body, basically. His child has been spirited away. The love of his life is being somewhere tortured by a monster. I get it. But come on, bro. Come on. Like, Harry doesn't... Hasn't... Like... Ugh.
Harry basically performed an impossible task here. Mm-hmm. And you're just like, yeah, you did everything you sure did. I... Look... I was so fucking mad at him, dude. I was so pissed. I remember being in the Discord because I had like separate, I made sub threads of five chapters each. That way we could talk as we read without having had to read, like without worrying about getting spoiled on a part that we hadn't yet gotten to.
Gotcha.
And so I was like quite active in those threads after I made them, once I finally got started reading. And I remember just being like, you know what?
How does Thomas's attitude affect his relationships?
Fuck this guy. Like you put yourself in this position and even Harry talking about how nobody could find her. My whole deal is finding people. That's like been my job for 20 years. And I couldn't find her after searching literally every day for like 10 months and
Your sister, with all of her resources, all of her organization, looked for her everywhere and came up with nothing. Mab shows up with Justine alive. Fucking make sure that baby is born safely under, like, horrendous supernatural circumstances. Mm-hmm. You sure did a lot, man.
Mm-hmm. Thank you. Thank you. I was worried that you were going to be all compassionate. And I just, like, I did not have that in me at this point.
No, no, not at all. I was fucking floored. I was floored. And not in a way that I'm like, I can't believe that the book would do that. Because books are going to book. They're going to make, you know, tension. They do indeed book. And, you know, create obstacles and challenges. But I'm talking about the character. I can't believe Thomas would pull this, that he would act this way. And it's got me wondering what the fuck is up with him. Maybe you're infected and we don't know. I don't know. Like, what the fuck is going on with you, sir? Like, what the fuck? Yeah. Yep. Yeah. I was so disappointed.
Like, the... This is honestly, in a way, like it's very about me and you as well. You and I are always so hyper aware of like bothering people, being a pain, you know, that you and I in this position would just be so relieved that things had worked out at all. And so I think that's part of it as well is that like, The idea of somebody going through everything that he went through because of something we did, and then they managed to solve it, basically. We would just never dream of criticizing the way in which that was done if it was done in such a way that everyone survived and everybody got out somehow.
