i’m so sad for the yotes. :( the whole situation sucks, but to have it handled in a way that was so unprofessional and amateurish is an insult to the players and staff and the fans. plus they consistently have some of the sickest jerseys in the league. this does not grow the game, mormons don’t even like hockey!!

Guys, Cellbit doesn’t think he’s the only one who’s suffered or that his suffering is all that matters. He knows the others have gone through pain and he personally helped many of the islanders when they were at their lowest, but he feels like he’s tried goddamn everything and they are no closer to winning their freedom from the Feds or the island.

my Thoughts on like, normals character and where he's going btw are highly based on his own flaws and like. idk ive kinda seen both sides (normal is a baby and must be protected versus normal needed this ego blow because he was getting too into his head) and I think it's maybe more nuanced than that? cause the thing is. normal is RIGHT to think that his side of things are the morally correct side. he's the one whose seen what the doodler wants and fears and where it came from, he had more perspective on the quest than any of the other teens and I'm not arguing otherwise because it'd be silly. it's HOW he's going about it that puts him firmly into the, "teen character is going to fuck up because they're a teenager" category: as much as he does genuinely try, he's not good at connecting to other people and he does put himself on this pedestal of "i know better and therefore im the best" that isn't exactly the MOST healthy mindset, as a self-proclaimed leader.
that being said, I absolutely understand where he's coming from in this episode in a very. he is hurting and lashing out kind of way? we know why scary is acting the way she is (her own past with her dad + willy trauma=she's still looking for the trauma that justifies her inner darkness) and we know why link is acting the way he is (he's hurt and scared and he never asked for this and he just wants to ensure that he's not the one actively hurting people, he never forgave himself for the casualties of ep2 and the last thing he wants is to add more) and one of normals flaws is his pride, the way he's so sure of what he's doing, he's the best for this and of COURSE it's the right way, he knows that!!!
but he can't empathize with scary right now. very specifically he cannot empathise with her because he can't trust her. and if he can't trust link he can't empathize with him either. normal does view himself as the reason the team is together, and I think that's why he was suddenly on board with kicking scary out when before he was so deadset on helping her: if he personally can't trust anyone, does he really have a team he can lead?
that being said, the shots taken on him recently have been sooo low in comparison. scary has done nothing but bully normal since they reunited. link has been sassy and snippy with normal even since ep26 and it's only gotten worse. normal and taylor don't really have much of a relationship outside the teen friendship circle in general. hermie is angry at normal- and I kinda agree with will that it should NOT solely be up to the players to remember anthony's fucking npc, as funny as it is. as much as I want normal to listen and understand and empathize with scary and link both, it IS a little frustrating when in comparison normals been fucking tanked at every opportunity by the other players- and link's line to normal after he found out about hero actually made me so upset on normal's behalf like dude.
I'm still on the boat that normal should get and deserves a mild villain arc. I desperately want him to team up with hermie and go to the goofs realm alone. I think it might be good for him- both to have a solo adventure with hermie and to have a solo adventure in general, so he can find out why he loves having friends so much. and I think him going through a villain arc would be so narratively compelling, because again, he's not WRONG about the path they should be taking: it isn't underestimating links personal trauma to admit that normal is actually right and he's just so bad at following through. it's just kinda a little tiring sometimes when normal actually does his best to keep the group together and it doesn't work (looking at episode 27 in particular) or when he tries to bury that oak family generational anger the way sparrow and henry do. let him be angry!!!

🍋🥑for Vice please if its ok? ❤
thank you for the ask!! i'm so so sorry for taking so long to answer these but i was stumped for a while lol
fruit n veg asks from this list!
🍋 What is their kryptonite/ultimate weakness?
His ultimate weakness is that he doesn't think he has any at all. He believes himself invincible, and acts accordingly; charging headfirst into firefights, climbing the highest building with no safety gear, driving recklessly & under the influence, drinking like he has a backup liver ready and waiting.
He's been humbled several times by netrunners hacking his implants, and huge brutes giving him a good wallop, but the lessons never stick and he finds himself in similar situations over and over even as he loads himself up with more and more cybernetics.
🥑 What will they never back down about, even if it makes them seem bad?
He doesn't believe in forgiving and forgetting. He's quite capable of being vindictive and petty, even though he hides it pretty well, and if he or someone he cares for is hurt or threatened in some way, he'll make it his sole mission to make the culprit's life hell. He'll effectively terrorise them into their grave without caring if his actions cause any collateral damage, and push revenge past a point most other people might lose steam or let things go, especially if the one who made the threat or caused the harm in the first place cries mercy or apologises.
He ended up in prison once because of this mean streak, but Night City made it a hundred times worse by rewarding that kind of thinking, reinforcing it until it was fully locked into his psyche.

I'm sorry to hear that planning has been stressful, but best wishes this Saturday!!! I'm so excited for you and your wedding and your marriage and wish you every happiness 💕.
Thank you! I am very excited too! Mostly because I get to marry the love of my life 🩷🩷🩷 but also because there are only four days left and judging from my track record this last month that means I will probably have to deal with🤞🏼only🤞🏼four more things going wrong! 🎉 And then I’ll be married to my favorite person and the stress will probably be gone! ✨
(Please send good vibes my way it’s been a very weird hectic month 😂)

I might have given Reece (Reese? Sorry my instinct is to spell it Rhys but I'm guessing he's not Welsh) the benefit of the doubt, even might have brushed off the baklava/note thing even though it was a bit weird, but now he's definitely being shady. Just not sure if he was all along or if it's in reaction to Nowak being mad at him.
Also though Nowak, "we tell each other everything". You literally just found out something Tristan was keeping from you.
