thinking about how different rooks little brother naming himself after ben would have hit him if it was classic 10yo ben. like, I'm not sure if rook ben was 10 years old when he lost his b'inthak or younger, but like. ben 10 classic has a big theme of ben needing to learn to be a hero because it's right and helps people and not because its thrilling and cool

a young kid naming himself after ben in the classic era if ben was still in that era of learning to care because he should and not because being a hero is awesome like. imagine that. something would just click I feel like. like, its not a crowd of people cheering for him or people he'll never interact with that he saved from a burning building. its personal and this specific kid looks up to him and sees him as a REAL hero enough to name himself after him. ben would just have a wake up call I think. like this is what it's all about. not how cool it is and not kicking bad guys butt but this. it just fits so well with the arc he had in OS to not think about

#forgive me if im missing some info lol im still getting a handle on the franchise and characters and stuff #but like from my current info level this is running circles in my head #yes 10yo classic ben is my fave and most compelling to me and i lowkey dislike all the other versions of him #i just feel like he has more going on #like i feel like a plot like that with rook ben and ben himself would fit so well into the OGs arc #bc of the stuff i said above #like classic ben had a lot to learn at first and this just seems like a clicking moment #like oh. i dont think im a hero for the thrill and becuase i can anymore. i think its deeper than that now #pandas.txt #ugh sorry for maintagging it but i gotta have the tag on my acc #ben 10 #thoughts #lmk if theres more info about rook ben and his age or how that stuff works #i did see the clip of rook ben picking his name and i think all ben does is go 'aww'#unless he says something later in the ep afterwards #like no thats too tame im blowing this self contained plot out of proportion in my head
