how do you think carmen/gray reunion would go? also if there was a spinoff what would you want it to be about

XD i actually wrote a fic? for rcweek a couple years ago i think? and even tho im not totally satisfied with it basically i am ok with one of the paths being meeting on a train somehow becuase im a sucker for repetition with intention being attention for differences highlighted

but tbh i'm not always so certain... should they be more free to just be sad and happy that HE ISN'T DEAD??

or the slight tension because carmen is grappling with the GOOD and BAD that happened? and thus she needs to let herself crack down to the root of it all? carmen tends to be a little cold and withdrawn until she's sure she can rely on said person even if what she wants is to trust them? does the broken ribs outweigh 6 months in her opinion? it must at least a little, her last words were sorrow for him not anger.

or would carmen just be too sad at what she almost did?

is the blame to be adressed , i think it might have to be since gray does feel shame and carmen feels at fault

would gray? be too apprehensive ?

should they address rn that gray could like be...inlikeLIKE with her now or does that need time?? because at the same time i don't think he should keep that buried , itll make him sick and don't do that to my son

but definitely some level of emotional at just. him being alive. and her willing to be there ...AGAIN!... i need them to hug. like can you imagine

tears;sad /mad, i don't care because those 2 always looked like they're about to cry about each other and are like thiiiiiiiis close to being totally honest about how deep those feelings go this could be the dam break

apologies, not i regret! i am sorry! NEED. NEED GRAY'S VOICE TO CRACK [to match carmens from himalayas :0 here at the apologies or later for an i love you is also acceptable] but also there being a bit of process along because why did you guys like...make a gordian knot?? or!like a gordian knot is it solved by -[no im not letting carmen off the hook of processing the wild explanations for her choices to keep him in the dark because the alternative was admitting she lost him]

maybe not all the ones needed yet but the big ones for sure

and maybe a little apprehensive near the end as they see they have to choose to accept it as closure ...orrrr choose to actually stay in each others lives as more than nice memories. they should stay

and it doesn't even have to be the train

him at a new job and her on a caper works too

her trying to find him in a new setting to get the fresh restart feel

maybe even that small delay because there is aLOT to adress and i'll admit that the little byline is how i HOPE it would go but those 2 are so complex that im always just...gimme popcorn and show me -.-please...one cs writer who cares about they...show me which emotions win out.

spinoffs! i would like!

-> SUPER OPEN TO LEARNING MORE ABOUT HER MOM AND HOW SHE GOT TOGETHER WITH WOLFFE and her life a bit after

-> zack and ivy doing ACME training! fitting in! interacting with julia, zari, and chase, and chief!

-> i'm actually curious to see like... maybe not a whole spinoff but like how's sonia? idk maybe in the vein of carmen starting to make an urban legend of herself seeing people she met talk about her or have fun trying to keep up a caper themselves ala ivy with maybe a chance of carmen sweeping in

->does the fanficy VILE ball that lives in my head count as valid at all
