“guilt is one of dakota’s biggest motivators” drives me insane like. one of his complications is a need to save everyone and be a hero— where else do you think that could’ve come from?

:(((( anon i’m deranged. it’s guilt, it all comes back to guilt. he is a hero to Save people. to not fail them. to not let them down. but throughout his life he consistently lets people down not because he’s a bad person but because- despite his powers despite his mantle of hero despite the world that he has rested on his own shoulders- he’s just a Person. and still that guilt buries him so deep he can’t see that everyone’s lives and wellbeings are Not all on him. he fights off jimmy to protect william and he tries to keep summer out of the principles office and he vouches for vyncent and it’s all motivated by that need to not let them down. it’s all motivated by that overwhelming, soul-crushing guilt. he’s so!!!!

#anon you’re so very based and correct. dakota- at the center of his being- is abt guilt. it’s so compelling #if any of this is wrong don’t hate me i’m only on ep 9 #that morning he was stuck in a dream abt someone he let down and that afternoon he’s feeling the consequences of failing three more people.#‘i think dakota’s gonna drop out of school’ (grizzly in ep 9 of rolled) like FUCK. he messes up one time bc he’s a 16(17?) year old who-#-wants to have a life and suddenly the whole world is crashing down on him (almost literally) so he might just abandon that life he worked-#-to build for himself at centurion high bc he is a high schooler who threw a party.#ash answers #jrwi #pd #dakota
