if byron actually got his way
lyta would probably take this role there honestly and i would pay to see her go hardened matriarch
#og#i just think a separatist commune for extremely ill-prepared telepaths would go horrifically wrong in#a psi corps 2 electric boogaloo kinda way and#i kinda wish we'd seen the inevitable lord of the flies descent mixed in with all that#yeah sure pacifism but how long's that gonna last when people start stealing food bc u guys dont know how to grow crops#people are so grateful for safety!!! except infighting is inevitable and the oversimplified kindergarten level#moral lessons are only going to last so long when mundane family members and lower level telepaths try to fit in on equal footing#except oh no! actually pieces of this are now inaccessible to them and mundanes must walk on eggshells and know their place#and so on#maybe punishments are okay if they're telepathic a la grins bc that's not violence :)#oops lower level telepath is sad they're relegated to farm work bc the higher level teeps are needed to stay safe and strong for#defense purposes once 'peaceful commune of weapons up for grabs'#suddenly cant afford to be pacifistic anymore? surely that won't create a hierarchy of worth!#as much as im glad byron exploded the potential for this is SO INTERESTINGGG#thank you byron for being a stupid dreamer idiot with enough stubborn confidence of being right that#this could've almost realistically happened but in a way that would be antithetical to literlaly all of his values if done#he would either cave / keep going without realizing what's happening / or have to fucking die to maintain balance anyway
