I have yet to see anyone talking about Wealwell's playing card moment in episode 2--and look, I know it was a bit, okay? But it's Dimension 20, where bits are virtually indistinguishable from serious canon, and the only two things Wealwell has done to affect the plot so far are:

Tell the successful lie that gets them access to the ship

Throw a playing card with such prodigious finesse that he explodes a steampunk plane.

I'm just saying I think it'd be so funny if he continues to be pathetic and wildly competent in equal measure.

season 1: I'm Jonathan Sims, Head Archivist of Magnus Institute, London. My professional opinion is that this is all horseshit and everyone that isn't me needs psychiatric help. Statement ends.

season 2: Supplemental: God lives inside the printer and he keeps telling me my assistants are murderers. I am inclined to believe him based on the fact that Martin told to have a nice day. Innately suspicious behavior.

season 3: My only friends are my ex-girlfriend, her cat, and the many scars I've gotten from various monsters and fear cultists.

season 4: You know, just being socially adept would solve a lot of my problems. Unfortunately, I was traumatized so thoroughly by age eight that I learned the best way to make friends is to blink at them slowly until they get the idea. This does not work when your evil patron god uses eyeballs to devour fear.

season 5: Either Jonah Magnus tells us where he took all the good cows, or my boyfriend and I bash his head in with a lead crowbar. It's his choice.

one of the reasons I really like steampunk as a story setting is because it's the ideal for critiquing capitalism - particularly with how it relates to and is intertwined with the industrial revolution. it's a well known fact that Brennan is fantastic at this, and there are already interesting concepts to chew on:

The Gotch family's sponsorships of expeditions which you can take to be about artists and/or scientists and how integral it is to keep creative and curious people doing what they do -> for advancement and for joy

Widow's Breath being a clear commentary on unsustainable fuel and energy sources. With the added layer of governments using substance dependance as a form of control over their citizens.

Van's arm + the Imperial soldiers needing Widow's Breath to breathe + how many characters have winged gadgets -> what disability means for this world. It's interesting watching how "easily" aid is given in this world - and on what conditions and at what cost.

What I hope they get into more is the implications of "discovering" a new continent. Since again, with industrialization being such an important marker how does that tie into colonialism - we can assume several partied would want to exploit Zood for profit.

okay so the the zephyr crew has:

a very disney princess esque bright eyed transfemme who is just the most precious

a guy who's rowdiness speaks to him like a venom symbiote and also has no straight explanation for any of his behavior

an octagenarian gunslinger who joined a pack of coyotes after his divorce and who's first words when he was introduced were "dribble a little piss"

a (not great) toysmith with a haunted past and a slavic accent

a 6 foot tall butch with a sick prosthetic arm and just the most wet cat of a husband

and a famous author who's novels fell off after the fourth or fifth one

truly the adventuring party of all time

Marya choosing to believe in the crews’ faith in her rather than her own doubt got me a little ngl

We are 2-0 for proving Maxwell is a true rowdy (gay) this episode. I’m sorry but being called a gentleman fister does not help deter the gay allegations
