And, listen, I don't really talk about it because personally it didn't read as romantic to me but I am a believer in the beliefs of SagaCasey shippers. Like, they're just fucking right about this one, and I love nothing so much as Saga ripping Casey out of Alan's hands, in no uncertain terms telling him fuck you, he's mine, you can't have him. That is, in fact, the only way for me to read the text. Casey is Saga's partner. It doesn't matter what the story thinks, his belonging to her is unconditional.
#fannish#SagaCasey#Saga Anderson#FBI Alex Casey#and the 'doesn't read as romantic' is more just me being aro#and *choosing* to read it as alterous rather than romantic#I still need them to fucking kiss okay? It's just a question of how I prefer to label the context for the kissing#granted -- I am also a SagaWake shipper!! And *dear god* does that make me a minority position#So I am also holding hands with SagaCasey shippers like they're my brothers in arms#Saga Anderson looks this story in the eyes and goes 'no I will not comply'#'I deserve to be happy. I deserve to get what I want'#And like. *Textually* she is *right.*#This *is* a story about how Saga Anderson deserves to get what she wants#AW2 spoilers#Alan Wake (Remedy)

my thoughts on Saga Anderson and the lack of spotlight on her in fanworks
Hmmm…this has been bothering me since I waded into the fandom after AW2 dropped. WHY DOES 99.9% OF THE FANDOM SLEEP ON SAGA WHILE IT'S HALF HER GAME???
I DON'T understand the fixation on Casey (even though I adore him and he's the other half of my OTP), or Zane to the point that when Saga is in ensemble art, she's relegated to being the "bro". And for what purpose? She has just as much build up and storyline as Alan himself. She certainly has more screen time than FBI Casey. I see posts going "oh, I love Saga so much, she was so badass" and then almost nothing when it comes to fan work.
Do y'all understand, how, as a black woman, this frustrates me to NO end? I go to her tag on AO3, see new fics, get excited...just to see she's the bro or footnote to CaseyWake. I've literally been brought to TEARS over this. Saga was written with SO much love and care, and it's so obvious. She was not the stereotypical sassy, angry, loud black woman that we tend to get when we're even thought of at all.
And it's genuinely PAINFUL to see all of the love, all of that care, ALL OF THAT RESPECT, IGNORED by fandom because you want to focus on the white men. Because why? I get it, het is so icky for most of you, fine. But to not even give her fanart/fics just on her and her daughter? It's terribly egregious.
Saga Anderson is genuinely a role model. She's smart, warm, funny, dedicated, sympathetic and passionate. She will change REALITY just to save the ones she loves. She's NEVER had to deal with anything like the Bright Falls situation and she came through it with such GRACE. She saved the fucking day. She did what Alan couldn't do in THIRTEEN YEARS. And she gets no recognizance in fanworks?
And I know the majority of this fandom happens to be made up of women, at least for fanworks. You truly mean to tell me you can't, at all, even a little bit, relate to this woman? You can't make her the focus, instead of a background character? The white men are easier to understand and draw/write for?
I can't tell anyone who to like, or who to ship, nor would I ever try to, because on the internet, it seems like het is icky despite how amazing the woman is. But I've seen comments towards andercase fanart going "Saga, no, you're married!" But shipping CaseyWake in the same breath, despite Alan being married and getting back to his wife being the main motivation for Alan to do anything at all.
It comes off as hypocritical, it comes off a wee bit "I don't know what to do with this black woman...hmm, let's just make her root for CaseyWake" I'm left feeling that Sam and the team love Saga more than the fans ever do or will. And that fucking sucks. Because to put so much thought into a character and love the character, just to be ignored?
That hurts, really really badly. I genuinely enjoyed feeling like I was represented. I loved having a character I could relate to, one I could understand. But it feels like I'm in the minority. When she tells Alan he's not alone in this, this is THEIR story...well, that was the truth for me, and I wish others felt the same way.
I genuinely adore the works Saga has gotten that focus on her, and I see so much love and care put into them. It just somehow feels like fandom made this game into CaseyWake 24/7 and it's icky.
#alan wake 2#saga anderson#alex casey#alan wake#meta#my thoughts#strong black woman#video games#I love Saga Anderson in every way#I would go to war for her#and it sucks that people push her aside and make her the bro#when she was never a footnote#and shouldn't be treated like one#why can't Saga get as much time and attention as Casey?#doesn't she deserve it?#Casey seems to draw in more of a crowd#when the majority of FBI Casey's time is spent with Saga#andercase shouldn't be ignored simply because she's married and has a vag#but I guess I'm in the minority#I'll just keep screaming and crying into the void#I'll singlehandedly keep Saga out of the periphery when it comes to fanfic#despite loving andercase Saga will always be the focus#she will never be the footnote in her own story

still can’t get over the fact that casey is a part of saga’s family. not even just a workplace friendship—he cooks and cleans at her house on birthdays, logan jokes around him, he’s softer around her, his survival is essential to saga
#one of the funniest things about fbi casey is that i honestly. wouldn’t care about him in other context#but sagas love for him is so strong and reveals a lot about him (being a softie) that it’s hard not to be fond of him#alan wake 2#alex casey#saga anderson#i have a hc that he plays board game and dnd nights at her house with David and logan too#wanna know more about David but not sure if it’ll happen#he seems nerdy and sweet#in my mind casey just coexists with them and they all love each other. idk#unrelated to these tags but I just remembered the charm bracelet with logan :#they’re so 😭😭😭#truly adore how genuine the love characters have for each other is in Alan wake 2#saga and her family#Alan and Alice (and barry)

Me, rattling the bars of my enclosure: Fictional Caseywake is so good, guys. It’s so amazing. It’s about a creator’s intimate relationship with their creation, the divine art of loving something that’s uniquely your own vision. There’s drama. Angst. Spice. Sex appeal. And in this essay, I will—
#caseywake#alex casey#alan wake#call it book casey fictional casey head casey whatever you want to call him#there is absolutely a difference between him and his fbi counterpart#and I will bang the pots and pans and be annoying about this until you all see the Divine Truth#i’m mostly being facetious#or am I

Our relationship was special. A treasure.
The lines were inspired from the first Alan Wake fic I wrote featuring FBI Agent Alex Casey reflecting on his relationship with his partner Saga Anderson. You can read it here on AO3.

It's vitally important for the dynamic they have that both Saga and Casey are convinced that they're the normal, by-the-book agent who is just looking after their brilliant but incredibly strange partner.
#Saga Anderson#FBI Alex Casey#Like Serial Division is already the Weirdo Haven of the FBI#Saga and Casey both are like 'well that's true for the most part but *I'm* normal and I get on with them fine'#not realising that they're both extremely strange people on their own right#fannish#Alan Wake (Remedy)

Take a Walk
Saga Anderson & Alex Casey
Agents Anderson and Casey are on a particularly challenging case. Casey supports his partner by opening up about his own struggles.
Read it on ao3
“Do you even blink?”
Casey was pulled out of his thoughts by Saga’s voice, who had just popped into his peripheral vision. She held out a paper coffee cup and he grabbed it without redirecting his gaze at her.
“What makes you say that?” he mused, not taking his eyes off of the evidence board in front of him. There was something he was missing; some connection that was just outside of his grasp. He sipped from the cup, grateful for the burn of the hot coffee down his throat.
Saga sidled up next to him and crossed her arms, setting her cup in the crook of her elbow. “Because you’ve been staring at this board for three hours now and I’m surprised your eyes haven’t shriveled up and fallen out of your head.”
Casey grimaced. “Seen that. Not a pretty sight,” he said gruffly.
His partner’s face screwed up in disgust. “Really?”
Finally, he pried his eyes from the board and gave her a serious look before snorting. “No, I’m pulling your chain.”
With a groan, she hit him lightly in the shoulder as they both turned from the board. Casey went over to his desk to set the coffee down before cracking his neck and rolling his shoulders back to relieve the tension in them. Saga pulled a file out of the drawer of another desk and let it flop down onto Casey’s. They sat down on opposite sides of his desk as he began to pull the contents of the file out and spread them across the table (knocking some empty coffee cups into the garbage at the same time).
“Let’s go back over what we know,” Casey suggested, pulling out a pocket notebook and flipping through a few pages before setting it down.
“We’ve got three separate homicides along the Wisconsin - Michigan border in a two week period,” Anderson recited, “All three victims were white females in their early twenties that had been reported missing from Northern Wisconsin in the past two months by family.”
Casey nodded, pulling out the pictures of three deceased subjects and laying them side-by-side. “What else?”
Anderson continued. “Bruising around the wrists and ankles suggests that the victims were bound for a time before their deaths. Two of the victims had defensive marks on their wrists and forearms. All three victims had cracked and bruised ribs that occurred antemortem and water found in their lungs. Cause of death was a single gunshot wound to the forehead.” She placed the autopsy reports for all the victims next to their pictures.
“So they were repeatedly drowned and brought back to life before being shot,” Casey summarized, scratching at his forehead absent-mindedly. “Our killer has a god-complex.”
“He’s obsessed with his power over their lives.” Saga added, “He drowns them and then brings them back over and over again until he gets bored of them.”
The agents sat back and both took drinks of their coffees.
“There has to be some sort of connection between the victims,” Saga mumbled, standing up and going back to the evidence board. Hung up there was a map of Wisconsin and Northern Michigan with multiple locations marked in red. Casey followed and took his place at her side.
“We should be getting some results on the water found in their lungs back from the lab soon,” Casey stated, “Maybe that’ll connect some of the pieces.”
Saga sighed and shook her head. “God, I hope so. The thought that this guy is still out there is really getting on my nerves.”
Casey turned to look at his partner and gave her a once over. She seemed fine from a distance, but up close he could see the slight movement from her clenching and unclenching her teeth, he could see the beginning of dark circles under her eyes and cracking lips. He thought back to the last time he had seen her eat or drink something other than coffee and found that he couldn’t recall. They had been on this case in Wisconsin for a week now, but before this they had been in Pennsylvania investigating a case of serial arson. It had been two and a half weeks since they had been home.
“Let’s go for a walk,” he suggested, turning and grabbing his jacket from off of the back of his office chair.
She stood there for a second before comprehending what he said. She gave him a confused look. “Why?”
Casey shook his head while slinging his jacket over his shoulders and grabbing hers from her desk. “Just humor me, Anderson.”
Saga just shrugged and took her coat from him before following him through the bullpen and out of the office. They walked in silence through the building and out into the courtyard. The sun was shining, but it was deceptively cold and Saga zipped her jacket up as they exited the building. They strolled along the sidewalk until they came upon a concrete bench that overlooked a small yard of green grass. Casey sat down and nodded to Saga to follow suit. Neither said a word for a while, both of them enjoying the quiet buzz of the town around them compared to the chaos of the office. It wasn’t until the concrete started to feel cold that Saga spoke.
“Any particular reason you wanted to come out here?” she asked, raising an eyebrow at him.
He scoffed. “I was getting sick of looking at dead kids.” A moment went by before he continued. “And I wanted to make sure you’re still doing okay.”
Saga wasn’t able to hide her surprise. She had never known Casey to be a particularly touchy-feely person and this was definitely out of character for him. “What?”
“We’ve been away from home for a while and these cases haven’t exactly been cakewalks,” he explained, “I just wanted to make sure that you’re not letting it get to you too much. I know you have your profiling thing to get into the minds of these guys, but I’m worried that you’re losing yourself a bit, Anderson.”
And for a moment, the world fell away. Saga let out a deep sigh as she felt a heavy weight settle onto her shoulders and she stooped under the weight ever-so-slightly.
He was right, and she knew it.
“I miss Logan. And David,” she admitted, “And I can’t stop thinking that somewhere out there there is a mom who just lost her baby girl and I can’t help but internalize that.”
In an uncharacteristic move, Casey put an arm around his partner’s shoulder and pulled her a little closer. He didn’t say anything; he just let her breathe in the comfort that he provided and she found herself leaning into him slightly.
“I keep having these nightmares that Logan is going through what these girls did and there’s nothing I can do to save her,” Saga said quietly.
Casey turned to face her fully. “I understand,” he confessed. “When I first started, I would have these nightmares where people around me would be dying and I’d just be there, frozen; unable to do anything to help them.”
They made eye contact before he continued.
“But that’s all they are. Nightmares,” he assured. “And trust me, anyone who would want to get to Logan or David would have a hell of a time getting past one of the best agents this bureau’s ever seen. Oh, and I’d be there too.”
Saga laughed quietly, wiping a bit of wetness from her eyes. “Thanks, Casey. I guess I’ve been internalizing this more than I realized.”
“Happens to the best of us, kid,” he said, standing up and offering his hand to help her up as well. “But you’ve got people to talk to. No more lone ranger stories for either of us.”
“That’s my line,” she huffed, hitting him lightly on the shoulder.
Casey laughed. “Come on,” he replied, “I’m freezing my ass off out here and I’m out of coffee.”

Saga and Casey joining the FBC, love it, need it, it’s everything. But also. There’s NO way they’d be on board (lol) with The Board. There’d be so much drama
#saga anderson#alex casey#alan wake 2#control 2019#control remedy#also. would the board know saga is a seer and has the ability to traverse worlds like her dad#unlike Jesse who is bound to the service weapon-could see the board being apprehensive over her involvement#saga: [having incomprehensible conversations with the Former in her profiling place]#The Board: NOOOOOO/:(#logically I don’t think the Control sequel could bring Casey and Saga in for major plot stuff but it’s been a thought in my head#while yes Saga and Casey are a part of the FBI#the Board having control over the bureau is so blatantly insidious#then again maybe they’d just be field agents who don’t even think about it#in the sense of ‘well everything is already So weird’

(another messege on saga)
The saga hate is 100% racism, sadly, and its sad how these ppl refuse to accept it. Like, i wasnt sure about thr beggining - i waited for a sequel for 13 years and now i have this new character taking the larger role in the story. But the game was good, story was good, she was fine. But now these ppl want her gone or erased, "only alan parts were good!!" What??? They are the same!!! I loved alans gameplay (execpt the teleporting enemies) but i dont believe you would hate sagas gameplay if you loved that one, its like, the same.
As in all recent gaming sheres, it makes me mad becuse there are critiscsm to talk about, real discussion, but it gets buried under these fuckers. Cant tall about my issues withiut some stupid guy busting in to complain about black pepole in his games, thinking we are the same. Im so more confident in my decision of cutting on all these sites.
I can't see any other reason to ignore Saga than racism, and I was FULLY aware it would be a problem, but I only expected it from gamer bros crying that it was Alan Woke now, and their fav white man was replaced with an unnecessary black woman. I could handle that because I've been seeing it for YEARS, but I always discounted them just for the fact I knew that they would never see beyond their surface level woes and wouldn't actually be in the fandom proper.
Their racism was loud and proud but it didn't hurt me or concern me. It elicited nothing more than an eye roll because nothing was going to satisfy them the second Saga was created anyway, even if she WASN'T black. I'm not even going to get into their reaction to Abby from The Last of Us 2.
Covert racism is the shittiest because you're thinking, ooh tumblr! this is where I'm going to find the GOOD stuff, this is where I'm gonna see people that played the game, are content creators and are going to overthrow the gamer bros because they're not blinded by the white man being joined by a black woman who's equally awesome.
I was wrong. I was a case of not being nervous at the idea of Alan being replaced in his own game after waiting 13 years because I didn't get to play AW1 or AN because I didn't have an Xbox. My older brother did, but I could only play at certain times, so I just didn't bother with AW.
That changed with AW2, the funny thing is that I didn't have the time to buy it until last month. I've focused solely on watching playthroughs, so Saga was written so well that I didn't NEED to play the game to be able to relate to her and adore her.
I'm not the least bit worried about the gameplay and I KNOW that's just an excuse to complain about Saga. It sucks that the content creators obsessed with FBI Alex Casey won't just admit they don't find the black woman appealing. I think that's a stupid as fuck opinion and not worth entertaining but at LEAST be honest about it!
FBI Alex Casey wouldn't be even a tenth of a bit interesting if he wasn't paired with Saga for the majority of his time. And that's the rub of it. I love Saga's Casey, but I wouldn't enjoy him if he was on his own, or if he and Saga's places had been reversed.
Saga could star in her own spin-off game dedicated solely to her backstory and her problems independent of Alan, and you'd find a treasure trove of things to talk about with her. But you're not getting that now, because "ohmergerd Alan is so hot with Casey!" When that was never the point.
#alan wake 2#saga anderson#alex casey#ask#meta#my thoughts#covert racism#strong black woman#at least be honest about not liking the black woman#at least admit she somehow gets in the way of shipping your white men#I'm not exactly sure how she gets in the way#Saga's gameplay is clearly just as good as Alan's#why would you ignore Saga when her story is so fascinating?#Saga Anderson can and does stand as her own character#FBI Agent Alex Casey doesn’t have that luxury. and I say that as a fan of him. he NEEDS Saga to exist while Saga DOESN'T need him#I think the majority of the fandom is scared of Saga. white men are familiar to them and that's one of the reasons they adore the Caseys#step out of your comfort zone people!#Saga Anderson is my hero#i would go to war for her
