honestly, that's more memorable than any line she had as Cho Chang in the Harry Potter movies. I'd consider that a point of pride

I really agree the show needs more time to breathe. Don't need any more big action sequences, just more talking and character work. Maybe another funky dream sequence because that felt amazing.

The show really hasn't been going overboard with accents like I hoped it would. Bayle Domon only does one "do be" and the rest of his dialogue is just miscellaneous fantasy British. They really could have leaned into it and done some cool cultural-marker stuff if they wanted.
