So far here I’m giving Bruce the benefit of the doubt.
I’m not gonna condemn him and I think the outburst he had earlier towards Jason might have been what pushed him to find outside help even if he says that “it stays in the family”. Do I honestly think he would have put Jason on a mental institute? I really don’t think so, especially with him keeping their alter ego under wraps when going over what happened to Jason, and as I said, his previous idea of keeping their problems within the family I’m thinking he was bringing in a psychologist to help Jason but from their home.
The narration is in the pov of the lady psychologist and the excerpts tell us that Jason does end up talking to her because of how we have Jason going over how he felt during his fight with scarecrow, but also Bruce talks to her and also ends up telling her about their alter egos.
I think everything Bruce has done so far in this issue is out of love for Jason, it sucks that he didn’t tell Jason about the psychologist, but like it says Jason was pulling back more and more no matter what Bruce and Alfred did and I think Bruce didn’t know what else to do other than actually do the thing he said he didn’t want to do in the hopes of getting Jason help. Was it right? No. Is he trying? Yes because he cares so much but is still going to make mistakes. Jason’s trauma isn’t something that will just go away if they give him space and ignore it, he went through something horrible and the family is scrambling to find their footing again and I’m excited to see what they do moving forwards because seeing Bruce actually love Jason and care is a big yippee to me.

So, I'm catching up on IDV lore at my own pace. I don't have the full picture between Orpheus and Alice yet... but uh.
Does... does IDV actually want me to see Orpheus and Alice as adopted siblings... because one of Alice's [Little Girl] S-tier skins is called Eurydice. Eurydice is also mentioned as an option you can make during Alice's nightmare in Ashes of a memory part 2. This name is based on the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice and... um...
Those two were not siblings LMAO.
IDK man,... like... In Ashes of a Memory part two, we have Orpheus call her "Eurydice" when she's dreaming, then we are given 3 options to choose from: Alice, Eurydice and the players name. When you pick Eurydice, Orpheus [as an adult] comes out of the light to deliver Alice from the dream, which is... hmm. He also comes when you pick Alice, except he appears as a child.
And from what I can tell so far, they don't remember each other and it doesn't look like they'll ever get a happy ending. Orpheus' Birthday letter titled "A Scrunched Letter" is describing a future event. This letter doesn't refer to Alice and Orpheus as siblings - just that they've known each other for a long time... I still need to read some more information to know what exactly a "long time" means. Does it mean Orpheus and Alice remember being childhood friends? Does it mean they still dont remember being childhood friends, but they've been friends since they met as adults at the manor?
I mean, I still need to catch up on the lore, but it is... an interesting choice to have Alice be delivered from her dream by Orpheus, since the Greeks viewed sleep and death as closely related concepts. In Greek mythology, Hypnos, the god of Sleep is the twin brother of Thanatos, the god of non-violent death. So to have Orpheus be the figure that guides Alice [Eurydice] out of her dream [returning her to the living] is... very interesting to me.
Unfortunately for Orpheus, it looks like he's playing his role in the myth to a tee and with an added bonus. He seems to be trapped in a never-ending cycle - one where he fails to bring Eurydice back to life over, and over again.
That's.. uh... hmmm...
Also, I'm looking through Orpheus' wiki and it says he and Alice were childhood friends, but after his parents were murdered his relatives sent him off to an orphanage...
I've watched his backstory video and his backstory is shown in AOM part 2... so idk where people are getting the info that her family adopted him lmao.

Okay I have enough fics and shit to write right now as it is, I currently have 4 in the works 🙃, but last night while I was trying to sleep I had a thought. I think I came up with a very baseline very bare bones idea for a possible OUAD 2.
A possible title for which I came up with was Once Upon A Kingdom OUAK if you will. And literally as I typed this out, Once Upon A Winter OUAW akskskskk and it would take place months after the events of OUAD, Chazz and Atticus are officially a couple now, and Atty takes him on a trip to see the Northern Kingdom or the Crystal Kingdom if ur in with the OUAD deep lore 👀 where he and Lexi are from and with Jay, Sy, and Hassleberry in tow, winter wonderland hijinks and capers ensue 👀
Now I have no idea what the actual greater plot would be but I really like the idea of visiting another kingdom since in the 'deep lore' there are 5 kingdoms that exist in the world, but since the Kingdom of the East was canonically destroyed by Slade and Jagger before the events of OUAD, there's still 3 other kingdoms outside the Golden Kingdom. The northern, western, and southern kingdoms if you will. The Golden Kingdom is the central kingdom. So we get to see more of the world, and open the door for more of the ensemble cast to get involved, I fully intend to include Jesse and Bastion at the very minimum if I wrote this I fully imagined a whole conversation with Jaden and Jesse last night, immortal magical fairy Jay gets to flirt with the cute human boy 👀 so I have thoughts happening ☺
Like I said I have no idea what an actual greater plot would look like yet and I have way too much to work on right now to put too much thought into it right now, but I promise babes. OUAD 2 may be on the back burner right now, but it is also very firmly on the table 😉
