Don't know if anyone has told you this, but your Jujutsu Kaisen fic has a TVTropes page now:

NO. NO ONE TOLD ME. HELLO?

Spinning up an unauthorised fork of tvtropes.org specifically because I feel strongly that every trope page should be illustrated with an appropriate screenshot from The Penguins of Madagascar.

I love this little moment of Mulcahy discarding an apparently scandalous submission to the suggestion box when no one is looking

i think there's an interesting bit of alexei's psychology on display in the what if episode, and that's him telling bucky he comes from a "family of nobodies"

worrying about being a nobody really highlights a lot of his whole deal. dreykov leaves him to rot in obscurity in prison and this is the ultimate punishment. he hated the spying mission (despite handling it pretty well) not because he didn't like the girls and melina, but because he hates the anonymity of being a spy.

and in thunderbolts he tells yelena that fame and fortune is how you make friends. as if he genuinely doesn't see himself as worth being friends with otherwise, or just has a very cynical outlook on people.

my theory here is he always thought of "alexei shostakov" as a nobody and "red guardian" as a somebody, so of course that's who matters. most of this is ego; he's a hero, he's a super soldier, he's the baddest man in prison, etc. etc. but some of it does seem to be tinged with self hate, appropriate for thunderbolts and the overall themes in the movie.

additionally, both BW and thunderbolts have this tension between yelena and alexei, where she wants her dad (the guy who coached her soccer team and got her into mclean and followed her to dc and etc etc) so badly, but he can't help but put the red guardian bullshit first. he seemingly can't accept that anyone wants regular old alexei to give them advice or cheer them up after a shitty day at work, and so if there's no red guardian he just kind of disappears (hence "i'm not good at this" and "i thought you didn't want me")

anyway all that to say the tl;dr is the the funniest most sleep deprived man in the room has some deep seated self esteem issues to work out, i guess?
