Tamara said:It has been approximately 8 months and 23 days (in other words, “too long”) since my eyes were last blessed with a page of Exvulnerum so I’m having a moment over here trying to collect my thoughts and recollect my memories while keeping my excitement on a leash. Well, the last sentence was a lie because I cannot contain my excitement and I’m not even going to try! It’s turbo at 9,000rpm right now and my emotions are bucked up to ride this roller coaster of an adventure after being starved of the adrenaline for so long!
IT’S EVEMBERRRRRRRRRRRR- oops, sorry, too loud? Let me fix that, IT’S EVEMBERRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!! Am I physically, mentally and emotionally stable enough for what’s about to come?! Probably not but 16 chapters of this comic has made me immune to the plot twists to the point where I’m almost craving the unpredictable!
LET THE RIDE BEGIN!
Tamara said:How cliché would it be for me to make a joke about social distancing right about now because I can already hear the choir of groans in my head! But hey, glad to see Evey being a responsible, law-abiding citizen (and bonus points for not eternally dooming Amber with a *ahem* unfavourable curse)!
Aaaaaa, I cannot believe I am seeing the two of them in the very same panel again after what feels like eons! And not to mention the fact that Cygnus had been taking up that precious space! Psh! Okay, admittedly it’s been a long time and I have once again forgotten how I’m supposed to be feeling about him but I have a flair for the dramatic...
So, Evey seems to be standing in a room with an injured Amber while it’s dark out; he is not here to pass on a very strong *ahem* message but I don’t suppose this is a friendly drop-in either so what’s the purpose of Evey’s visit?!
Find out on Page 779 (hopefully)!
Tamara said:Aaaawwwwhhhh! Well, this page doesn’t have the answers I was expecting but somehow I’m getting something so much better and that is Evember just as I remember them! Also, I totally did not take a solid five seconds to fangirl over how concerned Evey looks that Amber is hurt; I have no idea where you heard that.
Tamara said:Shh. And the middle panel! Hah! I’m saving that for whenever I need a meme to describe the awkward morning after to my friends! ‘So…. What now?’
Tamara said:Yes, I do like your room very much, Amber (andtotallynotbecauseyouandeveyareinittogether)!
Tamara said:Look at the sparkle in her eyes! And the kaleidoscopic TV static background around her! Ah, I think the lockdown has me so starved that I’m trying to live ‘the best years of my life’ through my favourite fictional characters so go get it, gurl! And if anybody asked me to summarize Exvulnerum, Amber, Evey and Evember up using two pictures; I’d just show them the last two panels!
Tamara said:Aaaaaaaaaaaa!!! Okay, I’m sorry that whoever is reading this might be expecting some top-tier quality review from a professional writer and is instead getting different combinations of ‘aaaaaa’ but that’s what my genuine primal reactions are on every page!!! I don’t remember if I’ve ever witnessed a “we need to talk” moment between these two because it seems to be an unwritten rule for them to just shrug things off like they never happened so aaaaa! Welp, I don’t want to be celebrating too early so I’m just going to go ahead and flip the page now!
Tamara said:I.knew.it. Why can’t I be wrong about these two for once?! I had cashed out all my emotions to invest them into whatever conversation that I thought was about to happen and now I’m a broke shareholder. Sigh.
Tamara said:I have to agree with Amber here because good?! Did I miss some sadistic character regression here or is Evey just going through another one of his curse-induced mood swing phases? Hmm. I don’t want to say anything too optimistic (and jinx it yet again!) about Evey having good underlying intentions but let a girl have some hope!!!
Tamara said:Hmmm… HMmm… HMMM… A few pages ago, I would have been fangirling about another Evember getaway but something about this legal kidnapping isn’t sitting right with me... Could it be Evey’s 180-degree change in personality within a matter of minutes, could it be his unknown intentions or could it just be the fact that, well, the dude sneaks into her room in a relatively well-secured zone in the dark after ghosting her for ages only to tell her he has a whole itinerary planned for them?! And of all places, why Calit? I don’t know about this, Amber… I don’t know.
Tamara said:ASDFGHJKL! As a veteran of Exvulnerum, I know all too well how this is going to play out and I’ll put all my money on the chance that she’s not talking about Evey but can we just appreciate how this scene just played out?! Everyone else can just go home and take their character arcs with them because Amber’s getting crowned The Queen of Character Development and one of the highest honours a Gen Z member in 2021 can bestow; a freaking girlboss!
Tamara said:And I was right! The star of the queen’s speech is Cygnus (who I completely forgot about for a hot minute)! But how fitting is it that it also applies to the ordinary person who is literally right in front of her! A cinematic masterpiece! Zules, you need to go to Hollywood and fix some mistakes they’re making up there because I’d watch the heck out of any movie that you write!
Tamara said:……… I genuinely don’t know what I’m supposed to be feeling right now because my brain is lagging trying to process what’s going on. I have a lot of things that I want to say about Evey over here but the one thing that’s essentially the big question mark hovering over my head is why Evey would go through all this trouble just to take her back home to Calit? Why there and why now?! And why does he want to go with her?!
NEXT READLOG POST: > here >Tamara said:IS THIS GOING WHERE I THINK IT’S GOING?! It didn’t hit me until he said that her mom is not a ‘factor’… Does this mean, does this really, seriously, actually, truly mean that he wants them to go back to Calit so that he can curse her and she can curse the one she loves most – which I wouldn’t have a problem with except for the fact that the only person I imagine she loves that much is OUR PRECIOUS LITTLE ROBIN.
NO. BACKTRACK! RETROGADE! ABORT MISSION!
