not done talking ab fhjy actually so i'll just say some of you guys who go on about how you could've done better themes and narrative arcs can't even think critically about the one in front of you.
i do wish that the other bad kids had interacted with their foils more this season because it was fun seeing them trade insults, but i also dont think it would've done much for them. i mean, people forget the tbks did try to turn reuben early on (they literally saved him from grix even though it was his fault he showed up trying to kill people). adaine thought oisin was cool and tbks were onboard with thinking maybe he wasn't that bad, and then he sent his grandma to murder them and their entire school. fabian tried to get an 'in' with ivy and it nearly cost him a genuine relationship with a character who had a way better chance of helping them figure things out without the risk of being betrayed. kipperlilly had an ego-driven hateboner for riz since BEFORE the rage stars and killed her own party member in cold blood just to stick it to kristen, and you're telling me that she could've been my little ponyied into giving up her chance to squash the symbol of all her inadequacy? buddy and maryann are the only rat grinders who havent fucked them over meaningfully and guess what? they're not thrilled about having to kill them- they're actively avoiding targeting them! almost like theyre capable of distinguishing between someone not on their side and someone who's proved to be a threat!
brennan made it pretty clear that trying to befriend trgs in their rage forms was futile and actively punished it ingame. you can have your opinions of that, but it definitely had a narrative point: if you get rage starred, you cant be 'this isnt youuuu'd out of it. you think ONLY of rage, and rage can't be reasoned with. it's arguably worse than death, bc at least someone can revivify you and there's no lasting consequences. think about how hard brennan was trying to push the ihs into taking rage tokens. he knew exactly how dire he'd made the consequences and that was on purpose. the season has no stakes if you can just talk your way out of being rage starred bc tbks could save each other easily. the whole climax literally can't happen if trgs arent being evil bc porter can't be a living god of rage without followers. tbks hating trgs isnt a flaw in the story: it IS the story.

I've been holding this in for a while, and I'm sure many people have already spoken about this, but sometimes I doubt that people paid attention while watching atsv. "Gwen lied to Miles", "Miles wanted to study quantum physics to go see his friends while they could visit him any time, but they didn't" — Did you even watch the movie? Gwen said herself that she would've come, and seen him sooner, but that "they" (so probably Miguel, Jess, and others) were strict about where she goes, BECAUSE he was an anomaly, and she WASN'T ALLOWED TO SEE HIM. "She lied to Miles", because she knew he would get rejected. How would she even explain to him that he was an anomaly? If she would've just...let him into the spider society, she would have probably been kicked out, and then she actually wouldn't have a chance of ever seeing him again. Which she DID get kicked out eventually.
I apologise if there are any grammatical mistakes, or punctuation errors.

Proposal; into the Yeuniverse
During the scene with Angstrom Levy when Invincible is placed through numerous portals he falls into different universes that all have Steven Yeun as an actor/voice actor.
So imagine Mark fighting through the Walking Dead while the group watches.
Rick: "He sounds familiar."
Mark in Tuca and Bertie world.
"Things have calmed down. But why did this one bird give me a picture of myself as a gift."
Into Nope:
"Giant threat? Easy target."
Into Voltron
"Owwww"
oooh thats cool :00 imagining steve from trollhunters and avatar wan meeting mark 😭 mark would probably think avatar wan is SO SO SO cool which is understandable cause. Dude is Literally the avatar!!! but mark meets steve and hes like “this steve guy is lame ://“

delving into fic for larger fandoms is always such a gamble for me bc I know it will just be riddled with ooc writing which is quite possibly my biggest ick, especially when it comes to romance (I get that fantasies are a thing but... I like my smut canon compliant lmao what can I say??)

i wonder, if i ever met a dropout watcher irl and somehow managed to not drop a reference anywhere in my time around them and so they wouldn't know i watched anything from it, how fast they would catch onto me from my speech patterns, or how fast they would realize in retrospect where all these things come from upon finding out. or like, alternatively, someone getting to know me irl and then being introduced to dropout, and suddenly having a frame of reference for like. what a lot of my speaking habits are probably modeled after. does it show that i watch dropout? do i talk like a good percentage of the audible conversation i am exposed to in my daily life comes from one streaming platform? would love to know. would truly love to know
