what are the captain's motivations for crashing the ship in your rewrite? upon rewatching a walkthrough of the mobile game i felt it was implied it had something to do with how no one on the crew besides maybe the nurse seemed to really like or respect him/jim outright bullying him, and since you've given me an excuse to think about these characters in depth i'm curious

I would actually like to keep a bit of that whole “Jim bullying him” & “Nurse seeming to be the only one to really care about him” thing in just a teeny bit. But generally I have a rough idea that for sure I’m going to do a lot of reworking to based on where the story goes

And that’s the idea of tackling the subject matter of how companies refer to themselves like a family and (likely) subsequently tackling the family unit’s endorsed/ignored downsides and criticizing both instances mentioned. I do also want to do this as a tiny jab at the mw fandom's insertion of the characters into family dynamics

For whatever reason, Captain has a lot of attachment to the concept that his Crew is his family, his people to “love and protect and stay together with” . To be their papa bear.

This comes from one of the company’s motto's that, “A crew is like a family, love and help them like it!”

Perhaps he has some horrible attachment issues on top of this

I may also suggest that Earth is having a lot of layoff problems with jobs and the company they work for is no different

Maybe a second predicted great depression but that'll have to be figured out a bit. Life just isn't good back on Earth

In the case for the company though, a mass layoff will ensue that affects thousands of workers. This is what Captain is informed of by HR

Captain doesn’t know who will be laid off, including himself

But… the risk is too high

He doesn’t care if it was just him, but he knows that some, if not all of his crew is at risk of losing their jobs

It’s too many people that are predicted to be fired from the company…He seems them out in the streets. Cold, hungry, scared, alone. Without family.

His crew is at risk, his family will be torn apart. A father in this situation needs to take control.

He was always taking control. No matter how much his crew hated it all, he needed to control it all to keep them safe.

His crew may not like him they may even hate him, but they’d be safe

More importantly, they’d be together

But… he can’t financially support them all. He can’t help them all. God, no. It’s all going wrong; this wasn’t how it was supposed to be. He would do anything for his crew, anything to stay together with them. Forever.

He sees on the screen ahead of him in the cockpit that the ship detects a nearing asteroid belt

It could lead to, at best, horrid injuries and damage. At worst, mass death of the crew

The computer’s autopilot redirects the ship’s course to avoid the belt and ensure they all head back to Earth

.....

Autopilot disengaged

I also have a rough draft idea in mind for this already rough draft character that these anxieties and fears pre-crash are exemplified by someone finding solace in his company and admitting that they never felt very accomplished, that things back on earth aren’t what they’re cracked up to be and they wonder how they’ll keep going in the current state that the world’s heading in.

I don’t know who would be telling Captain this, but it may actually be Nurse because as you mentioned, Nurse is suggested to at least tolerate Captain since she actually wanted to throw the party for him.

Though I would need to figure out how that fits into her character. I have some rough ideas but it’ll be hard when I already have a version of her in my mind that makes her more reserved (which is why she doesn’t share her actual name)

I'd also like to note that, had the song not been about romance, Breezeblocks by Alt-J would have been a perfect song to describe Captain. But alas

tdov was like a week ago already but I just wanna say when I came over to vacation slash help my sworn brother move flat he told me, "ever since you said you wanted to get top surgery I've been thinking about it. it's straight up number two on my bucket list"

[jankwritten]

yall wanna know how fucked up my anxiety is about some shit

i scroll past a post that's about a topic i don't like. whatever, it's fine. i scroll past a video that's a topic i don't care about. that's normal.

i scroll past a video that's a topic i don't like or care about but the person presenting it is a person of color? i IMMEDIATELY feel immensely guilty and need to "compensate" by "proving" it wasn't because of race by also skipping other random posts, JUST IN CASE someone thinks I'm racist because I didn't want to watch a video on a topic I didn't like or care about, that happened to be presented by a person of color.

this just in on: the police in my brain are loud and i'm scared of them

what would happen if you told her you were saving money for a nice trip and could she contribute money towards that?

(she doesn’t have to know it is to go visit your Daddy)

Super appreciate you trying to help✨.

I don’t think that would go well. There’d be immediate questions of where I want to go, and no one would believe I’d want to go on trip by myself, and I don’t have anybody I can use as like a mom friendly cover story. But like I kinda don’t thing it’d get that far bc she’d be quick to be inviting herself. She brings up travel and going on trips a lot. She’s already heard a lot of me saying I haven’t been interested in traveling for a while (which is a little true but mostly I don’t want to go on more trips w her, it never goes well). It has felt to me that if share I want to go somewhere she’d want to plan the trip to come, and bring the whole family if she could. There’d just be a lot of questions and even if I could convince her I just want to do it alone, I feel like that would either get her like pre-worrying I’m going to die so then like all the questions (and prolly her sounding like she’d cry if I went on a trip and didn’t like immediately reply to her) or her making me feel like a shit person for not wanting to go w her (def feel like I’d get put on the spot to have to explain why I’d want to go alone).

I think my leading idea is to ask for some expensive curling iron (or set but I’ll need to specifically pick it out or she’d think anything id consider to be an improvement on what I have to be too pricey for what it is). If it’s an expensive she’ll hit the gift cap amount she has in her mind sooner and I won’t be asked to come up with as much.

an interesting thing abt jgy antis is like. where is the source of their, shall we say, negative opinion of jgy? like, 1. jgy is a villain, he does horrible things with no remorse, he’s willing to do everything to achieve his selfish, egotistical goals. --> 2. the source of this claim: this, this and this scene. --> 3. alright, but to me -- says someone who’s not an anti -- this reads differently. that he did all those things, and did them on purpose and without remorse, is not that obvious to me. why do you think that? --> 4. well, obviously because he’s a villain and does horrible things with no remorse.

like... he’s evil because he does bad things, and he does bad things because he’s evil. i’m interested in how antis came by those opinions, but a, unfortunately i have them all blocked, and b, even if i or someone else made a poll, it wouldn’t be authentic because no sane anti is going to say “well, people hated him and wrote all those things about him on twt, so i started hating him as well”, or “i only care about wgxn, you could sell me anything about other characters if your arguments were convincing enough because i zoned out during the parts when wgxn weren’t on screen/pages of the book”. it’s all “written in the book/shown in the show” and “logical arguments you’d agree with if only you could read”.
