My daughter is re-reading ACoK, and ran across this hilarious image, which I don't remember noticing before. It's on p.155, when Eddis is about to tell Sophos the story of Polystrictes. Sophos turns back to look at the Magus, who is described as "far behind them, walking with one of Eddis's attendants on one arm and one of Attolia's on the other."

Glad to see the Magus is enjoying himself! And I have to wonder if the Attolian attendant is the romantic but foolish Chloe? (since we see in KoA that she is an attendant again). Anyway, the image of the Magus strolling along arm in arm with the ladies (of both courts, no less) has been making me laugh all day.

This is one of my favorite little moments from ACoK! It's amusing to think how the scene might've been described differently from Gen's POV. One suspects he would have teased the Magus about it somehow.

I used to ship him and Eddis so much. Sophos won me over eventually, though.

When the book first came out, we were all laughing so hard at this line. I remember someone even made an icon with this quote followed by, "The Magus is a pimp!" It soon became a thing. XD
