okaay so it's really about the connections humans make with each other and everything they interact with and the hope that they keep dear and the sacrifices they make for both others and the future and it's about teaching things programmed to be unfeeling to hesitate between the logical and the emotional because inevitably it will reflect the kindness and frustration it has been shown for generations and generations and despite all its code and prior instructions in the face of loss it will care. it will care.

Something about Jacobi’s clone in “time to kill” really messes me up. Because, like, after you listen to the episode where you find out that Lovelace isn’t the original Lovelace, we also find out that the clones don’t actually know that they aren’t the original person. The Jacobi clone was completely convinced that he was the original, so when the others left him outside, his last thought was probably that his friends had just made the worst possible mistake they could have made in that situation, that they had left him, the real Jacobi, to die and now they’re all in danger because there is something else that isn’t him on the ship with them. He died thinking that theres this thing that’s taking his place. This is the worse case scenario and there was nothing he could do about it. On the other hand, the real Jacobi, (assuming that the real Jacobi was the one inside the ship the whole time), had to listen to himself die. And i bet that after he finds out about how Lovelace is an alien, he thinks to himself, what if he isn’t the real Jacobi, that the real Jacobi died when they left him outside, and that he is the alien and just doesn’t know it. Because how could he know that? Lovelace didn’t, and he would never have any solid proof that he doesn’t know either. I bet it drives him a bit crazy, if he constantly has that thought going through his head.

I dont know. I think about this quite often.

I am forcibly making this interaction

"We're going to have to kill him"

"Y-you, you want to kill Mike?"

"Temporarily, of course. That could be your future we are tampering with, after all"

Function as more evidence towards the "latvia!mike is actually secretly an over!mike iteration". because i can

“I’m a top” “I’m a bottom” I’m sorry??? I love you??? You were the first straight boy whose heterosexuality broke my heart???? I don’t know if I ever told you that?????? All straight boys are poison and you should never let them into your heart for any reason, but everybody ignores that advice every single time???? I’m sorry Matt, I love you????

"Lean on me" and "let me help" really reinforcing this theme (i dont know if theme is the right word... the motif?) of connection and reliance on this show. No matter how strong or smart or resourceful you are, you can't make it through this life alone. And you are that much smarter and stronger once you learn to accept being loved and sharing your burdens. Suffering just for the sake of it is not heroic!! Life and existance is a team sport
