I have been able to make some progress on the socks and one scene of Book V, though it’s a lot less than I’d planned for.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In that scene, Arvid…oh, wait, that’s a spoiler.\u00a0 Well…sobeit.\u00a0 In that scene Arvid uses talents developed in another line of work to save lives.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Arvid sneaking across roofs and into buildings is always fun to write.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I haven’t yet figured out quite how he’s going to manage what he’s going to manage, because that requires more oxygen than is currently available to my lungs on a regular basis.\u00a0 But he’s in there.<\/p>\n
I had to give him something fun to do because I decided that a long stretch of Arvid being snarkily superior to someone teaching him Girdish law was not actually that plot-relevant.\u00a0 Fun, but not going anywhere.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
