#from the fact that prospera seems to be a fan of specifically poetic revenge

[sukimas]

anyway what with schwarzette and all my overall theory for the rough timeline of the show and what's happened in the past and will happen in the future is this:

-prologue happens -eri and prospera escape to mercury -eri dies of space sickness, her body gets preserved in some way -prospera, distraught, saves her biological data in the lfrith -prospera goes about starting to plot her revenge -encounters notrette/delling- they do not know who she is at first -notrette realizes who she is but tells her she doesn't support delling's plans and she's sorry about all this -prospera doesn't believe her initially, but eventually breaks down and tells her about what happened to her daughter -notrette expresses sympathy, tells her about her genetics research, offers to try and clone eri -eri is cloned successfully at least once, but during this process, notrette realizes that eri was very special (in terms of being a perfect interface candidate with the gund format) -notrette decides (with or without prospera's permission? probably with) to edit her own child to have similar traits (remember, miorine is younger than suletta, significantly) -this gets us miorine and her weirdness- like eri, she's a "newtype" as i'll be calling it until we get a proper term. suletta is also probably a newtype as an eri clone. -per lfrith's AI still being around after eri leaves the aerial this past episode, suletta is a normal kid and not lfrith ai. (sad, that was a fun theory.) this means all of her weird traits are exclusive suletta things- except we see similar in miorine. -anyway, sometime after this, notrette dies. we have no idea if this was accidental or on purpose- possibly on purpose even with prospera's collaboration with her (see garma.) since miorine wasn't allowed to attend the funeral, there is probably something strange either with the body or with how miorine can interface with data (dead people in the data storm?) -cradle planet happens -miorine's miserable -s1 and s2 (so far) happen -eri gets transferred into prospera's helmet -prospera finds some way to get legal ownership of the company after miorine becomes president (though she evidently wants to do so through suletta and miorine getting married, idk how that'll happen after this past episode, so i assume she'll use different means) -since miorine is a "newtype", if she dies, she likely can be sent into the data storm. -prospera likely intends to kill miorine in some way (after getting the presidency, and after delling wakes up) and then stick her consciousness in a robot to "i have no mouth and i must scream" her. remember, prospera is not aware that gundam-girls can move autonomously. prospera also likely intends to kill delling after this. -even if she was, though, eri can still control other gundams through quiet zero, so presumably prospera has even thought of that aspect. -i imagine that eri does NOT want to go along with this, since she likes miorine, but can't stop prospera from doing what she's doing since she's currently a hat. -i expect that she decides to pop into a gundam that suletta is piloting and give her the rundown at least- maybe she wants confirmation that listening to mom is right, and expects suletta to give it to her. -together, the two of them find a way to un-robot miorine (possibly through newtype bullshit magic, eri's new home is suletta's body, being her "other half" just like aerial was) or at minimum make an android body for the wife. -roll credits until season 2 where we get giant earth/space conflict.

-i have no idea what's gonna happen to guel or suletta in the intervening time between this episode and miobot, don't ask. although i do think with the Rejects Basement we saw this episode with norea, elan, and nika that's where suletta ends up next episode, at least. what with the title "our empty selves."
