You know Jason should be the class conscious robin, but then dc would need to pull its head out of the rich's collective asshole and face up to their own classism so it will never be acknowledged in Canon.

i like to think during blackwatch, gabe's costume-making (& prolly by extension, fashion sense) rubbed off on cassidy even if he doesn't show it. a latent learning type deal

he gives everyone the impression he don't care too much about fashion but he rlly does a little bit (he'll look at someone who's dressed professionally but then they're wearing 2 diff shades of brown for their belt & shoes & internally cringes a bit) but never shows it unless necessary

interactions like this he gets to release his inner diva just a bit ykn

sunrise on the reaping spoilers !!!

sorry, i see people talking about how maysilee donner in all her "one of us has to be the worst victor in history. tear up their scripts, tear down their celebrations, set fire to the victor's village. refuse to play their game." was not a rebel?? did we read the same book?

haymitch himself agreed that maysilee was twice the rebel he ever was, standing up to the capitol with an upturned chin and sharp words from day one without ever wavering. why else do you think they took her voice to kill her?

[philyuri]

kind of crazy to mention the current political climate in your title as a uk youtuber but then not expand upon that at all whatsoever or use your platform meaningfully. but hey thanks for that retweet

I feel like Phobos would need some sort of charisma to achieve what he created with Project Nexus and to have people continue it after his death. I don't think fear is a good motivator in Nevada. He explicitly doesn't fully grasp the Machine and the Employers, but I feel he once had genuine conviction in seeing Nevada prosper. But that quickly warped into seeking power to elevate himself to where he could have Nevada in his own hands.

If you've dehumanised existence to the point of it being merely a tool, coupled with seemingly having "control" over the most powerful and integral plane of existence (the Other Place; think of it like. we found out Hell is real and we can harvest power from it), AND you directly entertained powers greater than yours, it'd definitely uh. well definitely warp a person if they didn't have the strongest moral convictions.

Obviously, this whole project was brought about because the Employers wanted something (most likely for the people of Nevada to work out how to make clones for them; I imagine the Machine can't exactly "create life"), but there must've been a reason they chose Phobos, on top of him being a G01 Nevadean.

Speaking of, that would make Phobos very old... makes me wonder if he's slowly cultivated people/settlements under his 'banner'. What that banner would be I'm not sure. Maybe he always had a gut feeling that there was something 'more' to existence, that there were powers unseen throughout all of Nevada.

Considering he's a G01, maybe he was one of the first to encounter the potential to come back from the Other Place. Hmmmm.

MLB Secret organisation part 3: Who is in the Organisation

For the reason why I link the Secret Organisation with the 12 Olympians, look at my previous posts about this topic.

What you mainly need to know is that I connected 12 symbols to 12 Olympians, and that the 3 members that we know off even thematically fit the Olympian counterpart. Now we are going to look to possible other members.

There is a TLDR at the end.

For my previous posts:

Part 1: Musing about the structure of the Secret Organisation: https://www.tumblr.com/yakopi/782198191169880064/part-1-thoughts-about-the-mlb-secret-society?source=share

Part 2: Link between the Secret Organisation and the 12 Olympians:

On to the post:

Initially, I considered how the show would handle a twelve-member (plus minions) evil organization, which can say much about who will be a bad guy.

After five seasons, we’ve only had two confirmed members (Gabriel and Nathalie), a third that’s almost certain (Tomoe), and introduced on the back of someone already established (Mr. Sancoeur). This means the show still needs to explicitly confirm Tomoe, flesh out Mr. Sancoeur as a standalone character, and then introduce at least eight more members, all of whom need development to feel impactful.

To do that properly, the show would either need to:

Stretch this arc over multiple seasons,

Connect new members to existing characters (as mr. Sancoeur was connected to Nathalie),

Or focus on just one or two while reducing the rest to shallow filler characters—making the twelve-member concept feel more like a shallow reference than a meaningful structure.

And that last one would be especially... disappointing.

Alternatively, maybe many of these characters have already been introduced, like Tomoe. Right under our noses this whole time.

One character that immediately comes to mind is Audrey Bourgeois. Personally, I wouldn’t be thrilled to see her on screen again, but she’s been given a disproportionate amount of screen time and narrative focus if her only role is to introduce Zoé or explore Chloé's character. This is because Zoé is now essentially a reoccuring background character and Chloé has seemingly been written out of the “main civilian antagonist” role. So just being their mom should not garner Audrey so much attention of the show.

And yet Audrey, compared to other parents of background characters, received more development than necessary just to be labeled a “bad person and worse mother.” The only with similar disproportional screentime for their perceived role was Tomoe, before it became clear she was in cahoots with Gabe/the Secret Society.

So for Audrey to also be part of the Secret Organisation would not be weird.

Her only significant connection outside her family is to Gabriel, and he was part of this organisation. She made him the fashionista he is today, quoting the show.

Could she already have been a part of this group and introduced Gabe? Perhaps that is how Gabe and Emilie met each other. Perhaps the symbol of the eye, associated with Hera, a goddess who wasn’t exactly known for her compassion towards children, is her designation.

That still leaves the question why Gabe AND Nathalie act so dismissive towards Audrey, someone presumably more senior and powerfull? Is it an act to avoid weird questions? Dit Gabe feel empowered due to his alliance with Tomoe? Did Audrey do something (see theories about this later)?

If Audrey is indeed the fourth member, a pattern begins to form: they're all wealthy, terrible parents who for one reason or another have (laid new) roots in Paris.

This aligns with my previous comparison of the secret society to the Olympians—gods from all corners of the world who congregated on Mount Olympus, or in this case… Paris.

So, who else could fit?

Potential Members of the Secret Organization

To investigate further, I looked at all parents in the show, and focused on those who are pretty bad (excluding known suspects: Gabriel, Tomoe, Audrey, and Mr. Sancoeur). Those in positions of power are suspicious, and any potential Olympian references would be serious contenders.

I made a few assumptions—most notably that Dupont is a school for the elite. Gabriel would certainly send Adrien to Paris's best school, which can afford a former Olympian as a coach and includes the children of top-tier bakers, a hotel chef, a museum director, and the mayor himself. Either these students have scholarships or very wealthy parents.

Possible Candidates:

Mrs. Kurtzberg: Neglectful and controlling of Nathaniel, an architect—clear reference to Athena. This also implies that Mr. Kurtzberg could be, as an artist, Apollo.

Bob Roth: Terrible father to XY. A skilled music thief aligns with Hermes, who famously stole Apollo’s lyre. Present at the Diamond ball

And finally:

Colt Fathom

You would pressume he would not be in contention, as he is a dead. True, he does not love his family, and is rich. But dead. Or is he… First of all, he is named, which is rare in a show where most parents are not named if not necessary. Only Emilie shared this level of narrative significance despite being pressumed dead… because she was not. This might mean Colt is alive—and that would be very interesting. Especially if he fills the role of Dionysus, a god associated with death and rebirth.

In Gabriel’s final letter to Adrien, he hints Nathalie may survive even though he won’t. He must believe a cure for the Peacock's side effects exists.

Why would he think that, unless he’d seen it happen? There are only three known cases of a Peacock cursing a wielder:

Emilie wasn’t cured.

Nathalie was dying.

(Technically a fourth someone had to be cursed to make Kagami, presumably Tomoe’s husband, however nothing is confirmed. However if you want to count it: Mr. Tsurugi is also dead.)

But Colt, Colt we have only heard from Felix that he is dead. However, for a secret organisation, faking death is not difficult. He could have been cured.

That would explain why the organisation trusted Gabriel: the organisation has the cure so Gabe didn’t need the wish to cure Emilie. He just needed to wish for the better world they al wanted and Emilie would be cured by the organisation. Win-Win for everyone.

However, if Gabe failed, he knew that Emilie would not be resurrected, so Adrien would have to take over. Why? Why would an organisation want a teenager take over instead of a grown woman? Perhaps they want to use Emilie again as blackmail for Adrien? Perhaps they do not trust Emilie? Perhaps Gabe knows that Colt is jealous of him and Emilie and would never allow Emilie to be resurrected out of spite.

Perhaps that is why Gabe and Nathalie hate Audrey. Despite all her power, she would not revive Emilie.

Either way, the Organisation probably knows something about magic and how to use it, and that is why Gabe was confident that Nathalie, a daughter of a member of this organisation, would be saved… even as just a tool.

Which brings us to an even darker theory in part 4: mind-wiping.

TLDR: Secret Organisation has two requirements; 1) rich/powerful and 2) shitty parents, mirroring their inspiration the Olympians. They even lift shitty parents out of the grave if shitty enough. The magic men probably can do more then necromancy as a party trick.

I had a nonsensical dream about a big battle between groups of characters from every media I've ever seen, none of it made sense but I can tell you that Moiraine and Lady made an absolutely deadly fighting combo

Cutting down Sith Lords with the One Power and the power of these paws. And I didn't understand why my brain threw these specific characters together until I woke up and looked beside my pillow

(Shout out to Thom and Verin because they were there too)

[tanyafreemont]

i think it's really important to have one piece of media you're absolutely certifiable for that nobody else you know gives two shits about. stewing in your own madness becoming essentially a one-person fandom full hermit etc. you can reach new heights of insanity
