so don't get me wrong here. I don't think that everythin pony says in the novel is true. however I'm not sure that he truly meets the qualifications for 'unreliable narrator' but rather 'child who is operatin with the most valid assumptions anyone would come to in his circumstances' n let me briefly try to convince you of this

hes not in anyway deluded about his surroundings or situation. in fact, he seems to have a unique understandin of the society him n his family n friends live in. he's realistic in his grasp on the social classes n his comprehension of how poverty affects not only your way in life but how others look at you simply for bein born on the wrong side of things (both the Socs n the social workers). he has many many throw away lines that show he knows exactly what the fact of the matter about their lives are.

as far as people there are two main examples I see the most used to label pony as an unreliable narrator. of course one is darry so I'll start with him. now I implore you to imagine somethin. you are thirteen n your parents have died. n your oldest brother has taken over guardianship of you. n he's changed. you don't know why. but now you no longer have the same relationship. he used to give you piggy back rides n let you tag along with his buddies n fold you in on the joke n cover for you when you stayed up late. n now he. doesn't. he always seems to be chidin you n hollerin at you n you can't understand why. or what happened to your brother. now. do we see why pony figured darry hated him? he doesn't have the privilege of a third party perspective like we do. all he knows is that his brother used to love him. n now he doesn't. n on top of his assumption bein utterly reasonable he realizes he was wrong. he's able to view the other side of the story by the end n recontextualize his understandin. that makes him incredibly reliable.

n this one is mostly silly but I feel the need to throw it out there too. his relationship with Steve doesn't make him an unreliable narrator either cause. again. imagine with me your a kid n you just wanna hang out with your older brother so bad n his friend clearly does not want you there ("That means no lil kids allowed") yeah. I'd assume he hates my ass to n beef with him crazy style. cause again he doesn't have the third party perspective of Steve still cares about him n worries about him while he's gone.

but I think the final nail in the unreliable narrator coffin for me is this line.

Pony's not an unreliable narrator. God. the kid can't even lie to himself.

Sometimes I think about how Adrien, throughout the series, constantly grapples with his fear of abandonment. Gabriel conditioned him to believe that any love he receives is purely transactional, and that to earn affection he has to prove his utility. Adrien is constantly trying to prove his worth to his father for scraps of affection, and Chat Noir infamously crumbles on-screen any time he feels as though he is replaceable to Ladybug. It's a constant insecurity of his, like everyone will just dump him like a sack of potatoes the moment they find out how useless he is.

Meanwhile, all Marinette wants to is ensure that Adrien is happy. Because she loves him. She doesn't give two shits about how """useful""" he is. She holds him and tells him that she will never abandon him (both as Ladynoir and as Adrienette), and her fantasies are about saving him, not about him being "useful" to her. Throughout their relationship, Adrien is forced to disappoint Marinette constantly for reasons outside of his control (amok commands), and yet Marinette is still there for him.

At Adrien's lowest point, when he is forcibly torn away from everyone who had ever showed him genuine care, locked away in an all-white room and at his most "useless", right after disappointing Marinette and unable to even join the final battle or contribute in any way, she still saves him. She still loves him. Because he doesn't have to prove anything to her. Because he is loved and cherished for who he is, not for what he does, and that love is not conditional. Adrien's "happy ending" at the end of the first arc wasn't about him finally proving how useful he can be, because he never actually cared about being useful — he just saw it as the only means to feel loved and needed. Instead, in the end, he found out that he was loved and needed no matter what.

In S10E02, Sam tracks Dean to a bar, gets out his pair of magic handcuffs, and then... walks towards DEMON Dean with the expectation? hope??? that Dean will just LET him put those on??

Sam has a busted arm, he's just been beaten up, so he's definitely not going over there with the intention to fight Dean. He doesn't have the element of surprise to get out his holy water. His entire plan hinges on Dean once again submitting to his patented little-brother-wiles. He's throwing out sad puppy eyes and looking all pathetic and hoping that Dean will just hold out his wrists to be shackled.

That's... kind of an insane plan lol

hey kuniharu, buddy, i think youre thinking of your other son ???

I feel a little bit disappointed when i see people compare violent/manipulative or even normal players to the frontman and vips.

Literally feeling desperate to survive in literal death games to where you do things you would have never imagined you’d do before vs running those very death games (directed just at very poor desperate folks who have their lives threatened anyway) for entertainment and to prove your position that humans are horrible and deserve to die

Yeah you are allowed to be mad at these characters who are bad people and inconsiderate of other people’s lives, but you have to think of the position they are in.
