"The Invasion" and it's NOT just in America 🤔

I really felt Tobias’ story was a trans allegory from the start but this panel in the graphic novel hit hard, especially after knowing what happens later with the Elemist.

Hi, not sure if this would count as a tpk au. But in the Invasion, what if Jake never walked home with everyone through the construction yard, but instead was driven home by Tom? Would it be more of a sibling bonding moment or would Tom sucker him to join the Sharing?

Hmmm. Based on MM4, I'd say:

Marco would quit, and stay gone. If there isn't someone he loves on the line, no way is he insane enough to go to war.

Cassie would quit as well. She's not a fighter, and she knows the decisions they'd face are too big to resolve ethically.

Tobias would declare that he doesn't need anyone else, and he's fine fighting the war alone. Then he'd get stuck in morph.

Rachel would acquire an elephant, go down to the yeerk pool, and die fighting 400 taxxon-controllers.

So if it's just Tobias and Ax left after the first week, and Tobias can't morph... yeah, all right, this is just another total party kill.

from Isobel’s perspective the Invasion is so funny. You think a girl is cute so you invite her to do a photoshoot while her weird friends visit your uncle for some reason. Then when they take ages you go to visit the Shadowy Corporation your uncle works for, blow up a computer, and immediately get kidnapped by said Shadowy Corporation. THEN you’re rescued by the cute girl’s weird friends in a helicopter and suddenly you’re working for a clandestine military group trying to stop metal men from blowing up the world. All of this happens in 1 day.

Oh hey Sergeant Benton!!! It's your intro story!

My third favorite UNIT character (right behind the Brigadier, Kate, and tied with Osgood) ❤️

Taking a break from my usual screencaps posts to post this... I don't have a video of the scene handy so caps will have to do. This scene gives me such an instant dopamine hit so I decided to share for anyone else who may be in need of one. :)
