Jinx using the gas on Sevika versus the strike team using the gas to find Jinx is incredibly ironic

I've seen a lot of different takes on Fear Toxin/other fear causing stuff (Yellow Lanterns Ring or something)(later just called Fear Toxin cause I'm lazy) but here is another one.

Danny seems like he isn't affected by Fear Toxin because his biggest fear is that his accident changed him so much he is no longer human, he can no longer truly experience human things.

So when he gets lungful of fear Toxin, he feels normal. He was antsy before, because c'mon, it's a rogue attack but it's not worse. Or so he thought. Because the anxiety lingers. Not enough to register as abnormal just this slight hypervigilance that makes you see things about yourself and your surroundings that you'd never realize otherwise. He'd realize he doesn't blink as often. He'd realize that if he doesn't consciously focus, he sometimes seems to not touch the ground. Forgets to breathe. He can't feel his own pulse at time. He'd realize people will miss him when he's walking down the street as if he was invisible (people just don't care about everyone they pass by). When he'd look straight into his reflection, he'd look slightly to the left. Not enough to actually name anything that was wrong but just stretched enough to fall on the wrong side of the uncanny valley. If he just caught his reflection in the peripheral vision, it'd be vaguely shadowy creature with glowing green eyes and white smoke instead of hair. Overall he'd be just wrong enough to be distinctly not human.

For everyone else, he'd be just a dude. Literally couldn't find more normal dude than this dude. Will pass as absolutely normal human unless someone is specifically looking for ecto-ghost stuff. Even most magic users wouldn't clock him at the glance

Tldr: Fear Toxin makes Danny perceive himself as some sort of eldritch horror but not enough to make him believe he'd actually be affected, while from outside perspective he's Just A Dude™

I have an idea (concept sketch that I will make a more refined version of in the morning since it is midnight)

thinking about akane kurashiki's hypocrisy. like, not just her telling delta "only god gets to decide who lives and dies" but also her bringing quark into the ab game.

it's okay when akane brings a child in a game where he's in danger, where he dies. it's different for her, she has grander goals than hongou ever did. it's different.

it's okay when akane gets to decide who lives and dies, after all everyone who matters lives in the end. isn't that what matters? the timeline where everyone important is okay? it's different.

it's okay when akane is zero. she had to do it, she had to survive and she had to adhere to the time loop. she has to live. it's different.

akane is already such a fascinating character to think about, she's the world's worst heroine. she cares and loves very much, she genuinely wants the best for those she cares about. she wants to save humanity even. she's genuinely justified with her actions in 999, how can you condemn them given the circumstances. and she's a hypocrite because of it all. no matter how justified or self sacrificing her actions are, it doesn't change the fact she's still a hypocrite. how utterly fascinating of a character.

Wait! How did I not realize this earlier: the first and last thing that Omega does in the show with the Batch is escape a prison using maintenance crawlspaces. Both prison breaks started with Omega using a crawlspace to get everyone out of the cell, ended with a stand-off/shoot-out featuring Omega and Crosshair and getting help from one of the facility’s top scientists. Also, I cannot believe that it was a coincidence that there was a storm on Wayland for their escape and that it wasn’t a deliberate callback to Kamino.

You know what I'm gonna say it.

Fa Yuiry was important not just to the growth and development of Kamille's character, but extremely important to the story and themes of Zeta as a whole.

Fa was someone who is shown to care a great deal for kamille, but her motivations and charecter do not begin and end with that. Fa shows us the war through a more grounded lens than the powerful newtypes of Kamille and Char. She shows how even though she endured plenty of tragedy over the course of the story, she still finds it in herself to fight for AEUG and fight for the future. She is an incredibly strong person. However she also shows how even though she is undeniably in the right for fighting for what she believes in, the horrors of war still end up taking a very heavy toll and take nearly everything from her, much like Kamille. This culminated in her breakdown with him and Rosamia on Axis where she questions if she even believes in the newtype theory and questions if anything they're doing will put an end to the horrible cycle that the UC is trapped in. Ultimately However, her relationship with Kamille and (above all else) her own personal strength goes her through it all, getting both her and Kamille the happy ending they deserved. All of this is central to the themes of Zeta and Gundam as a whole of the horrors of war and having faith in the future. She was a very important part of the story and the Argama crew.

She was also NOT a bad pilot and I will die on this hill.

She wondered if there would ever come an hour in her life when she didn't think of him- didn't speak to him in her head, didn't relive every moment they'd been together, didn't long for his voice and his hands and his love. She had never dreamed of what it would feel like to love someone so much; of all the things that astonished her in her adventures, that was what astonished her the most. She thought the tenderness it left in her heart was like a bruise that would never go away, but she would cherish it forever." end ID]
