Bittersweet Victory - "Secret Invasion"
One protagonist lives, another one dies. Going in to the fourth episode of Marvel Studios’ Secret Invasion, titled “Beloved”, I was expecting the body count to rise. And if I’m being honest, I expected a certain character to not make it to the end of the series. But the method with which the character was dispatched still kicked me in the gut. My hats off to the writers of the series for ending the fourth episode in this manner, since it sets up a harsher pair of episodes to bring the story to a close.

As I start my tiara craft I say to myself, why doesn’t Dragoncon have a small craft like this people can take a part in? The only arts and crafts section when I was there was where you just listen to someone talk about how they make their crafts, but not actually get to do any. Same with the writing. There was no way of writing together and sharing your work, it was just sitting and listening to an author talk about their work. It is either that or a giant expensive project you pay $200 extra for like making a suit or joining in on a writing workshop when the trip is already costly.
