why did Sunday asked If aventurine wanted to destroy the world it's kinda random

sunday uses the interrogation scene to feel out aventurine's motivations; but he also uses it to take out his own anger on someone he can punch down on. aventurine was opportunistic enough to capitalise on robin's death, and use it as a tool to further the ipc's agenda—but he is not the murderer, which is something sunday knows as well. the interrogation scene is sunday toying with aventurine as well as confirming his plans.

why then does sunday specifically ask aventurine if he wants to destroy the world? it's because the armour-piercing questions sunday asks aventurine are actually very much applicable to sunday himself, the interrogation scene is a study in how sunturine mirror each other. (this is one of the reasons behind the question, but there's another as well that i lay out under the cut)

(1) do you love your family more than you love yourself & (2) do you hate and wish to destroy this world; are questions sunday has probably asked himself now that he's in a situation where robin, the one Family member he really loves, is apparently dead. the double meaning of this world: encompassing the universe in general and penacony in specific.

MAJOR SPOILERS FOR 2.1 UNDERNEATH;

finally, when sunday confronts gallagher at the very end of the quest, he specifies that he already knew what aventurine wanted to do as soon as he "walked out of the doors of the mansion" [the line below is a mistranslation]. basically, the objective reason as to why sunday asked the "destroy the world?" question was as a way to feel out what aventurine's underlying plan was: to use acheron to break the dreamscape and fall into the true penacony himself.

thank you for the ask, i love this update so much and welcome any chance to ramble about it <3

SON IS RETURNING TOMORROW! rejoicing

IDs are in the ALTs but also under the cut:

ID: Four sets of drawings, all black and white and containing Damian Desmond, alone or alongside Anya or Becky.

First image is a drawing of teenage Damian and Anya. His head is turned away from the viewer and towards Anya. He is sitting down comfortably, resting his arm on one leg. Anya is laying next to him on her stomach with her arms crossed. They are talking, surrounded by speech bubbles with no dialogue inside.

Second image is a drawing of Damian in a jacket reminiscent to the one he wears in Chapter 39/Episode 2 of Season 2. He is looking over his shoulder, pouting and lightly squinting in what is either confusion or mild annoyance. His hair is messy.

Third image contains two drawings of Damian. On the right, he is wearing his gym uniform, looking very annoyed. On the left, he is slightly hunched over, staring blankly with dot eyes.

Lastly, the fourth image is a drawing of teenage Damian and Becky talking. Damian looks very mildly frustrated while Becky is smug and teasing. They are both wearing their imperial scholar capes. Unlike in canon, Damian has glasses. Becky's hair is down and she is wearing a hairpin with a small bomb on it, and star-shaped earrings. End ID

ohhhhhhhhh if i say "hey maybe don't compare curly to a baby, he's a grown man who is heavily disabled and has lost his autonomy" and your response is "but it's a metaphor!" i will take a rock to your head and keep bashing while i describe the history of infantilization being used to justify ableism.

Did you ever remember what kind of mommy Nyo Poland is? :D

If we're talking about mommies in that sense I'd say she thinks she's mommy for about ten minutes but then she goes to get a few beers and doesn't return for three days.

Regardless of whether we're talking about mommies or mamas she will feed you.

I'll have to keep thinking

As for being an unironic actual mother, I have her helping Nyo Pru with raising Ludwig.

What was the future aventurine an illusion of the harmony or just his own mind making up ?

a bit of both i imagine! aventurine refers to his alt self as "newborn of the harmony", future!aventurine is definitely powered somehow by the brand sunday put on aventurine. at the same time, f!a knows things about aventurine only his own mind would know. imo that's what illusions of the harmony do, they take inspiration from your own mind, and use it to craft their illusions.

at any rate, i dont think you can fully call f!a a "fake", he is very real to aventurine, and by the end of the questline even offers him a measure of understanding. i especially liked it when f!a told aventurine to "say goodbye to the kid"—that part of aventurine's storyline involved reconciling his inner child and his own idea of his "future", and he comes out of it with a measure of peace that helps him accept what acheron tells him later.

"the answer has been with you, and is part of your journey"—and on that journey, aventurine encounters both his past and his future, finds the cornerstones jade and topaz lent him, opens ratio's note. future!aventurine AKA the illusion of the harmony is a personification of aventurine's jungian shadow, it has always been with him and is him; and by the very end, by walking into IX in a final gamble to survive no matter what, aventurine reconciles with his shadow.

because what was the armour-piercing question his shadow was always asking him throughout his journey through the amusement park? "why do you always take such risks while you gamble, for what purpose do you act this way"—and by finding the answer, which is, that life is still worth fighting for despite the pain and inevitability of the end; aventurine integrates with his shadow, completing his character arc and finding a measure of peace.
