It was "the circumstances of your death commit me." And Anubis has some experience with detached penises.

The God Osiris got torn into a bunch of pieces. Isis, Anubis and probably some others helped piece the body back together (minus his dong because a fish ate it) and he became the first mummy. Osiris later got a golden penis so he made out ok. Mythology's are loving weird.

Wait, are we meant to take from that that "the circumstances of your death" literally refers to the blowjob; I thought Anubis was the one who approached her because she worked at the Luxor.

I read that as another tip off if the ravens were too subtle. If it was a severed penis thing I'd think on a show this much about stories some person would have given a weird monologue about that story as foreshadowing 101.

I was just assuming that dick removal/death gets Anubis' attention, based on the myth. I haven't read the book so this is just me speculating, with the raven watching Laura and the car they almost hit when she died didn't stick around, there is likely a larger game being played.

I just figured that "the circumstances" "committed him" to taking her to the dark death place instead of the sunny death place that the old woman went to.

Man, the hosed up thing was telling her she had to annihilate herself by crawling back into her suicide attempt.... Also, Dane Cook was perfectly cast, he has not aged well, but the moment of realization of who the actor was and what his character did were simultaneous to me, so I was just smitten with the whole thing. Argue posted:Wait, are we meant to take from that that "the circumstances of your death" literally refers to the blowjob; I thought Anubis was the one who approached her because she worked at the Luxor. Watching again, they are really overt about showing the statue of Anubis while panning in on Laura in the first shot of the episode. I'm guessing the proximity to Anubis' idols (who literally watched over her life at work), combined with her militant atheism, allowed Anubis to claim her. I'm guessing Anubis still gets her resource belief-points, even though her soul goes to The Darkness. Vintersorg posted:Is this book series Memento? No?

Soysaucebeast posted:I read that less as a suicide attempt and more as her getting high and not really caring if she died in the process. She likes danger and was just THAT bored. Despite the anti-social stuff, she's not a caricature; she comes off as having behaved in these ways in life because she was depressed to the point of being numb and needed danger to feel alive. That all jives with her refusal, in death, to willingly go into "the darkness." I really like the character. Ersatz fucked around with this message at 20:43 on May 23, 2017 |

Nah that was definitely supposed to be suicide and she changed her mind halfway into it. If she was getting high she'd just do it upstairs with a paper bag or something. You don't lock yourself into a small chamber like that unless you're trying to suffocate. She wasn't hot boxing.

When you're huffing bug spray the line between thrill-seeking and depression gets a lot blurrier.

Ersatz posted:Her request to Shadow for more bug spray implied that this was an on-going thing. I think it's pretty reasonable to assume that she was getting high and wasn't too worried about the risks, or that the risks enhanced it for her.
