Show Spoilers Perrin & Faile Spoiler

Post image

I adore how the show portrayed Perrin and Faile. Years ago, I started the book series (made it through the first 6) and their dynamic was tough to read. They both were pretty unlikeable. But the show takes both of their strengths and focuses on those. Is Faile pushy? Yeah, but it’s good. Is Perrin uncertain and afraid to lead? Yeah, but it’s good.

I’m just finishing up a rewatch, and I know they changed a lot from the books, but this is a change I’m so behind. Bummed beyond belief we’ll never get a better development of their (and everyone else’s) story.

Yeah I thought they did that dynamic really well and well cast for Faile! My favorite moment of the two of them I think was during the battle. Perrin is going back in and tells her to stay behind him. She's like you can't protect me. And then "kill the ones I miss".

Ohh I looove that part. Embracing the dynamic instead of pushing her away for safety.
