so we’re all predicting that mat and the girls will be at the white tower at the beginning of s2 and that the caemlyn crew will also be introduced there, SO the ideal introduction for galad would be to have egwene, nynaeve, and mat going for a stroll around the white tower grounds, they come across warders training, cut to extremely sexy shot of galad swordfighting (slow motion optional), cut back to egwene and nynaeve AND mat all drooling

Ceara Coveney’s instagram is exactly how I imagine Elayne’s instagram and I can’t explain why…

Moiraine:I know you hate me, Liandrin,

but-

Liandrin: Wait, what? Why do you think I

hate you?

Moiraine: You always clam up when I

enter the room and you’re always

watching me and you never want to hang

out with me and you get all tense

whenever I walk close to you and you

won’t talk to me in full sentences and

oh, yep, I hear it now, oh my!, you have

a crush on me, that’s adorable-

Moiraine: do you want to hug me…?

Nynaeve, voice cracking:y-yes

Moiraine: oh..hello everyone

Everyone: hi

Moiraine: I gave you the key for emergencies

Rand: we were out of Doritos

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

OMG I just realised, it makes PERFECT sense that they’d cast an Irish actress for Aviendha….because they’ve already cast all the Tuatha’an with speaking roles as Irish actors. Like yeah that’s not how accents work given the history there but it is going to be so galaxy-brained when the big reveal hits if they can pull this off consistently 

Yes! Someone pointed this out on Twitter too. Have the Aiel sound Irish too to make that connection!

rafe if you’re listening I know it’s almost impossible but I think you should put Elayne and Nynaeve up to even MORE bugs bunny hijinks. MORE circuses MORE tel’aran’rhiod BIGGER mishaps. Go big or go home

The Wheel of Time Screentime, S1 Egwene

It has been a few weeks, but I did say I would do a screentime recap for all of our main characters, and I willdo it. It may just take a bit of time as I’m working on a few other things in parallel.

As always, all other screentime-related posts can be found at #wot screentime.

Egwene had a total of 2h21m23s of screentime, in which she was asleep for 1m47s and frozen in Rand’s dream world for 3m59s (which I classified as unconscious). After removing another 11s of voiceover, this leaves about 2h15m26s of “in-scene” screentime for Egwene, i.e. time where she is physically present and conscious. This represents about 31.26% of the total show length (7h13m13s).

Note: for the rest of this post, I will only be talking about in-scene screentime, as this is usually the most relevant in terms of character development.

Egwene spent about 38m55s in “duo” scenes, i.e. scenes where Egwene and another named character were the only two physically present and conscious named characters in a scene. This represents about 28.7% of her in-scene screentime for season 1. As a reminder, Moiraine was at 36.4% and Rand 41.7%, so that’s a significant drop compared to them.

Her larger screentime was for Ep2, followed by Ep7. Both episodes are mostly group episodes, so that’s not much of a surprise. Egwene had her lowest screentime for Ep4: only 4.9% of her total screentime.

This gives her between 6m36s and 34m32s of screentime per episode, with always at least 2m of duo scenes per episode.

Egwene spent some amount of in-scene screentime with 31 different named characters this season. She spent the most time with her traveling buddy Perrin (1h30m16s), followed by Rand (1h17m26s) and then Moiraine (58m17s).

She didn’t get a duo scene with Lan or Mat, and Nynaeve was only the fifth character she spent the most time with. While I knew Nynaeve wouldn’t be ranked too high, due to her absence in Ep3, I thought she would have at least caught up on Lan. Sadly, she’s behind him by 1m44s.

She had the most duo-scenes with Rand, about 13m01s in total over the whole season. However, this counts 2m53s for Ep8, in which it wasn’t really Egwene spending time with Rand but a distorted version of her that the Dark One created in Rand’s dream to convince him to break the Wheel of Time.

Second is Perrin, with 12m22s, then Moiraine at 6m45s and Nynaeve at 4m10s. Aram is the last character with more than a minute of duo time with Egwene (1m35s).

Interestingly, Egwene only had some duo time with 9 characters, compared to 13 for both Rand and Moiraine. Only 5 of those had more than a minute of duo time with her, compared to 10 for Rand and 11 for Moiraine.

I’ve been thinking for a bit about how to represent relevant “small group” time for our main characters. For Rand, I had done a trio chart, but only three trios had more than 1min of screentime. For Moiraine, I had skipped this chart, but mentioned some of the interesting trio and quartet scenes for her.

I’m now trying something else instead! The following chart contains the screentime for Trio(3)/Quartet(4)/Quintet(5) scenes with Egwene, filtering out any group below a minute of total screentime.

Since this chart is separated per episode, it is then quite straightforward to understand what scene corresponded to each group, from the Whitecloacks scenes in Ep5 (Perrin/Valda/Egwene trio) to the Women circle scene in Ep1 (Nynaeve/Marin/Egwene trio).

And that’s it for today! As always, here’s a link to the data.

newWoT BTS pic from @hassan_ngt over on IG

is that lace she’s wearing?? is this a costume?? if it is omg guys i’m gonna need expert opinions on this pls because she looks like Lady Moiraine Damodred instead of Moiraine Sedai if that makes any sense

I don’t know exactly, but that lace is lovelyyyyy. Looks more like nice costume lace than mass market clothing lace, I’d say she’s in costume.

Three interpretations of the Wheel:

Tam:

All we can do is the best we can with the life that’s given to us. And take comfort from it that no matter what happens, what pain we face, what heartbreak, even death, the Wheel keeps turning, always. And we try again. Maybe do a little better than the last time.

Dana:

He doesn’t want to kill you. That’s what the Aes Sedai want. He wants you to save us. Can’t you see that? The Wheel keeps turning and people keep hurting. Every man who comes to this shite town has a story: flood, drought, war. Sisters murdering their brothers, children killing their parents. But the Dragon, the Dragon has a chance to change all that. Break the Wheel. Make it stop.

Ila:

What greater revenge against violence than peace? What greater revenge against death than life? I couldn’t protect my girl in this turn of the Wheel, but one day, long after I’m gone, after Aram and his grandchildren’s grandchildren, the Wheel will turn out my daughter’s soul again. I do what I can to forge a better world for her then, where she can enjoy the life she should have had with me.
