I love that really old side characters like Mankrik are not forgotten.
Good for you Mankrik. Nice to see that he's finally moving on with his life. Also I hope Flynn got Shaw a spectral kitten. Ghost Cat for the rogue master sounds perfect.
Good for them, good for them
Safe to say, Rogues, do it from behind. B)
Aw, that's so sweet! I didn't realize that Mankrik was interested in somebody else in high school, though.
This seems like a complete waste of development time.
Horde side based as always.
I really wish (and I say this as a gay man, if that matters) they would have brought Flynn and Shaw in sooner, as opposed to every third romance driven side quest being a gay couple.Don’t get me wrong, any kind of representation feels really incredible, but when it’s just a random lovestruck quest giver, their entire identity becomes “gay guy” because that’s all the information we were ever given. And that sort of has the opposite of the intended effect.Flynn and Shaw on the other hand have been given a respectable amount of character development and are relevant to the world and the story(not major players, but still key figures in many plot lines)They are a great example of inclusion… because they are, you know… *actually* included. I hope we see more of them, and with their identity established at this point, I hope we see more of them doing things that aren’t focused entirely around the fact that they are gay.
How to get your top symaster killed 101. Mix work with feelings. Add a liability and more targets. And a pinch of distraction. Together they make an assassins knife appear in the back out of nowhere. So either: 1. Someone is going to get hurt/killed and shaw has to grapple with personal feeling vs being a true spymaster. Or 2. Nothing happens and shaw is crap spymaster with unrealistic plot armor. I am hoping #1 but after bfa and sl..... I dont bet on good story atm.
The idea that Flynn thought he could sneak around in Mathias' city is funny. Nice to see a character who is light hearted.
I remember when Shaw was clearly flirting with Valeria in Bfa, Ah yes pre-ret con stuff :)
