Yay! Another lover of Braveheart. God, I loved Braveheart. There are very few romances I love, but Braveheart is one of them. There is something so poignant and real about it, too.

And I can never, never forget how he was tortured before he died. Wow. I have never seen anything like that, and despite not actually seeing the blood and the violence done to his body (the vivisection), but the look of pain on his face...wow, you could *feel* everything done to him. That is just amazing.

And when he saw his wife in the crowds right before he died? I cried. That was amazing. I feel so comforted by that because in his last moments of life, he was comforted, and he rejoiced in his death.

This was a weird batch for me, but there were many M&S scenes! It's interesting how often they were together in very shippy moments throughout the episode. But it was a weirdly colored episode, and I had trouble working with it. So I used textures to help supplement it, and I'm so glad it worked out. I had patience with this episode, which I didn't have for the next episode.

Hee! You liked #53! That makes my heart flutter :D
