I HAVE THOUGHTS ABOUT THIS and I am trying to write both an essay AND a fic about it but I haven't written actual fic in over a decade and also my research involves methodically rubbing every word bubble on every character in every chapter. If you are interested in seeing things that are currently unfinished and bad I can share them under the condition that you are okay with them being unfinished and bad.
