The only Theo ship is Theo/Ruthless Efficiency but like

If I DID ship him with an actual person it would be her

They’re both ambitious assholes

And soulcrafting nerds

There are few characters I’ve changed my opinions on harder than Senka

The scene right after this is great

Fiyu gets confronted by a bunch of archcrafters and is desperately trying to figure out what kind of trap this is before she realizes that they’re all terrified that she’s going to extract revenge on them for events 6 books ago that she had almost forgotten entirely

Theo and Senka have the shared understanding of both being cantankerous old bastards.

In another life they'd be terrorizing a nursing home together.

Oh god

Terrifying. Brilliant.

Even if they do hook up, I can’t imagine them doing
a romantic lovey-dovey stuff

They’re more the type to plot someone’s downfall as a couples activity
