rewatching 13s era for me is not so much diminishing returns as it is something opposite and eviler...............increasing losses? increasing losses

#every time i rewatch an episode the points where it couldve been better poke me in the eye #maybe probably the exact same thing would happen with any other thing i would get this obsessed about #you stare at something long enough its flaws will become ever more apparent #you love something enough everything it could have been but IS NOT becomes ever more painful #i watched 13x5 tonight.........honestly what the fuck goes on #no these were my responses now 3 years and probably a dozen rewatches in:#1) what the fuck goes on #2) philosophically stilll utterly unintelligible to me i might be stupid #swarm and azures whole thing. like. everything they say about their Schemes is completely......incoherent. i dont understand it.am i stupid #3) feels like most agents in these plots are just doing busywork. but might be my inability to understand plot again #but like diane?? who is she what is she why is she #4) 13s message to yaz 'flux destroys universe so refugees coming take over earth your task' is.....like.....profoundly......wtf #and seemingly easily fixable: flux destroys universe refugees come to earth find a way to welcome them #get unit involved THAT way. right?#unit as the liaison between humanity and alienity. rebrand #but maybe that doesnt work with the snakeman plot idfk im stupid with plot #5) scenes between 13 and tecteun couldve been so much more. mastervoice: i have Notes. first and least: tecteun shouldve called her Child #damn now i want to do 13 era rewrite again #i really should do that one day i think it would be good for my skills #turn it into a good oldfashioned 13 ep series. still one story tho. but to deepen everything out a bit more #actually getting into all the stuff thats only sort of Touched upon #making swarm and azure not only make sense but also emotionally important and if possible even lore-wise interesting #more abt the division past. doesnt need to be shown in detail if the absence is the point. that doesnt mean there cant be more absence #swarm&azure lore + division lore + vinder&bel lore in separate pieces starting to show a horrible puzzle when put together #yaz and dan in 1900s for 3 full eps or so. time to breathe. more yaz&13 stuff. a lot more 13&yaz stuff #i think that might actually be the heart of it. maybe it should be the heart of it #leaning into that 13-tecteun parallel. the frustration and resentment. build up to the 'so why are you SO interested in him!' stuff #more of their life in the tardis just the two of them without buffer #i kinda want to play with like a lot more body language between them which the camera doesnt allow as we have it #like zoom the fuck out pls
