twisted-tales-told:

> I think the hardest thing/my favourite thing about daisy tonners death in the Magnus archives is that she is NOT herself anymore. There’s no moment of clarity, or humanity, or compassion. She has become a monster. She wants Basira to join her in that monster-hood. Like, a lot of times when there’s a death like that, writers will give the character a moment of pleading, or humanity. But like that’s the thing!! She is gone!! There is nothing left to feel that way!!

> And then Jon’s moment of wishing she’d recognized him, because they were friends etc etc, but the thing is I don’t think daisy and Basira were ever “friends.” What daisy Felt for Basira, though soft in a sense, was tied to the violence of the hunt. To me that’s why she was able to recognize Basira, not because of any sentiment between them.
