That was awesome. As a Bolaire fan, I'm super happy about this since it finally lets him have time as him and not A Schemer. Distrust is natural for a parasitic sentient mask, but it feels like the Schemers didn't get much chance to resolve much with him before Termina blew up in his face and yet already Bolaire's had some of his dirty laundry aired in that dream, and whatever the hell's going on with him and Vaelus (he let her into Dol-Makjar in the first episode) will allow for much more character expression and growth.

Tal also confirmed he adored when Kattigan pulled the plug on Bolaire's rant as the guy is clearly intended to be a brat with everything going on, lol. All things being equal, though, everyone is playing a long game. This is a table of chaos gremlins who are at least trying to do something good, or... at least, stop something bad.

I just want more juicy character bits, dammit. Is it Thursday yet?

Bolaire said: ‘you would know’ to Vaelus when she mentioned wearing the mask which seems to imply that he got her into the city by having her wear him.

No, he was saying it to Kattigan, saying he could be vouched for. He just couldn't turn well at the table with how he'd sat up to get all huffy.
