Auri talks smack about the state of her soap. We talk about Auri’s desire for pleasant things despite her whole deal, our own relationship with luxury, and what - and why - Auri wants to smell like.

Auri does some soothing ASMR activities and discovers something very angry. We abdicate our responsibilities by forgetting key details, talk about technical alchemy, talk about woo and woo-woo, and undertake disciplinary action against a podcast criminal. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the community on Discord at https://discord.gg/tCZc6kXQcg If you like the show, tell a friend!

Apologies for the late upload on this one, listeners. Rest assured, the interns of Omethi manner are being punished in an appropriately gruesome fashion.

Auri employs honey in her bid to draw the anger out of the suet. We talk about why honey, the hard edges of the image, and Jordana gives you, the listener, an inch. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the community on Discord at https://discord.gg/tCZc6kXQcg If you like the show, tell a friend!

Page 107: Mad Suet Auri must draw out the anger in her suet. We talk about recipes for making things in fiction, what made the suet full of anger (we are way off base), and Nick gets Zen. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the community on Discord at https://discord.gg/tCZc6kXQcg If you like the show, tell a friend!

Auri considers what to put in her soap. We talk about how much conscious desire is involved on Auri’s part when deciding how she wants the soap (and her) to smell, we talk about the sexiness of being apetalous, and conclude our debate in a respectful manner. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the community on Discord at https://discord.gg/tCZc6kXQcg If you like the show, tell a friend!

Auri wrestles with a stubborn soap ingredient. We discuss the origin of booze, which somehow turns into an origin of “Boo!”, which somehow turns into an origin of Jeremy. What does this have to do with the page? Tune in to find out! (Also, listeners, back me up: "Wouldn't say boo to a goose" is a common and well-known turn of phrase, right??? @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the community on...

Auri scrounges up a few more ingredients and does some more cooking, and cracking, and grinding. We talk about how this is the beginning of the third act of the book, how nice it is to see Auri eat, and why it might have been a mistake to teach rocks how to think. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the community on Discord at https://discord.gg/tCZc6kXQcg If you like the show, tell a friend!

Auri seems to take control of her life. We talk about the resurgence of Auri’s “deal”, Jordana makes a blunder and is forced to resign, and what we can learn about Mandrag. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the community on Discord at https://discord.gg/tCZc6kXQcg If you like the show, tell a friend!

Auri is still rinsing instead of washing. We talk about how this new day feels, what Foxen’s mood says about Auri’s, and yet more evidence of Auri’s good breeding.

Auri grins all the way home, and goes to bed happy. We talk yet again about the contentious bottle-stopper, how Auri is rewarded, and how the end of the chapter brings her problems of this chapter full circle. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the community on Discord at https://discord.gg/tCZc6kXQcg If you like the show, tell a friend!

Auri discovers a perfume bottle. We discuss the illustration of the bottle and how *pushes glasses up nose directly into brain* it’s not accurate to the source material. We also discuss being hopelessly down bad, whether or not the perfume is good, and the drift of language and orthography over time, before answering important questions about tinkle. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the commu...

Auri does some rearranging and drawer swapping. We discuss the difference between “intently” and “intensely”, and then try to figure out what the hell is going on, and seeing things in a new light. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the community on Discord at https://discord.gg/tCZc6kXQcg If you like the show, tell a friend!

Auri does some reflecting on this, her most-perfect place. We talk about the origins of the word Annulet, and how Auri’s reflexive self-denial is the closest we come to learning what her “deal” is. We also think about Auri’s saintly qualities, and whether the world really does care about her will. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the community on Discord at https://discord.gg/tCZc6kXQcg If yo...

Auri checks her inventory. We wonder about the provenance and purpose of her gold ring, wander off into discussing how you used to be able to customize the sounds your computer made, and return to the podcast to talk about Auri’s inventory ritual, and how she is attempting to ground herself. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the community on Discord at https://discord.gg/tCZc6kXQcg If you like...

NOTE: The original upload of this episode was incorrect. It has since been fixed. Thanks to those who wrote in to let us know. Auri strikes a match and begins to set things right. We talk about how Auri starts to make amends, but devolve into Parasocial Sleep Corner. We get back on track when we discuss how Auri’s systems of behaviour are a coping mechanism - possibly an unhealthy one? We also tal...

Auri tends her own garden. We talk about how Auri’s experience on this page can be related to our own real-world experiences, and tangent off into a conversation about how fiction handles characters who really want to change the world (and Batman, specifically).Ten minutes later, we reel back around to the subject of the book. Sorta. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the community on Discord a...

Auri gets burned and stubs her toe and sulks. We talk about Auri doing things sarcastically, and how a bad day can snowball, and a letter prompts us to think about what to do with power. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the community on Discord at https://discord.gg/tCZc6kXQcg If you like the show, tell a friend!

Auri makes a trade that feels right. We talk about the Menders again, and whether we think Auri has got religion. We also talk about how Auri’s worsening conditions lead her to consider compromise, and how a small detail on this page is reminiscent of a trigger of Kvothe’s. And we finish things off with a “well-actually”-off. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the community on Discord at https:...

Auri knows in her heart of hearts that the blanket is ruined. We talk about Auri’s fundamental irrationality, how her activities kind of make a sort of sense, and explore the spiritual vibes of being processed. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com Join the community on Discord at https://discord.gg/tCZc6kXQcg If you like the show, tell a friend!

Auri is empty of tears.
