Though they didn't interact, it was really good to see The Question (Earth-4) and Huntress (Helena Wayne, Earth-2) show up and have some speaking lines. JL:COIE Part 1 was a Barry Allen story and it was amazing. Now there's still Part 2 and 3 to go, so there might be more of Vic and Helena in store.

The Question in Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part 1

(also it seems like Huntress is going to be in this movie as well so hopefully there will be some Huntress and Question interactions!)

Well, I had no illusions. I was fully expecting that type of reply, and even though I really hoped to be wrong, I wasn't.

First of all, I NEVER said a clairvoyant dream was absolutely necessary to make Ashley aware of Andrew's attraction — that wasn't part of your original question.

After I explained that we (the players) knew that, and the scene serves the narrative to give Ashley that information, you changed the subject to something else entirely. Now, it went from "How does it help the narrative" to "Why couldn't it have been done differently?".

Fine, let's address that too:

A little bit of genre literacy would help understand why the creator of a dark fantasy piece of media would decide to go for maximum shock rather than a tame reveal.

You said it yourself, the players can know Andrew is into Ashley even before that dream; the game slowly does a tame reveal first, and, as it branches off in multiple routes, Ashley only gets that specific dream in one of them — Now, it does seem like its mere existence as a possibility turned off a lot of people like you from the game, and basically left only proshippers in the fandom. Back when only Chapter 1 had been released, I used to see antis talking about it, now most of them are gone. The game isn't attracting proshippers, antis are the ones too entitled to stick with anything that doesn't conform 100% to their tastes.

I could (ironically) criticize any other aspect of the game with the same argument "We all know that if you're locked up in your apartment and starving, eating a neighbor is the only possible solution. Couldn't Nemlei have thought of something else? Amazing." And why stop there? We could go on forever picking apart pieces of media that way, "Mortal Kombat doesn't need fatalities! All that gore is so unnecessary!" Last but not least, disappointed but not surprised.

The only one who "admitted" anything here was you. What I said was:

Calling me "gross" was just the first thing I assumed you would do, which you did. I doubted it would take long for you to start with the personal attacks against me, and since you openly admitted I'm "absolutely right", you aren't above throwing insults at someone who is trying to have a civilized debate, this is where I draw the line and you won't hear further from me.

Amazing discussion indeed.

can someone on this gross fandom explain to me in 100 words or less why did we need the dream sex scene if this game is not trying to romanticize incest?

if this game is trying to discuss complex issues and is not just an excuse for pairing up two fucked up siblings because its hot i guess, why include that scene? how does it help the narrative my dudes? and for who's sake is it included then?

was it the demons who forced one of them or both hm? what was the fucking point if not sexy twisted siblings having sex because its hot i guess?

I did watch the episode, but hadn't noticed that detail until seeing this post... LMAO Poor Clint 🤣

No need to disrespect Clint with that discount shelf, guys...

I have a request for a thing you could draw, but it requires some context. are you familiar with the folgers incest commercial?

Antishipper x Proshipper enemies to lovers Andrew is still an anti right now - ultimately repressing a lot of desire and using disgust to cover it - while Ashley is the proshipper, acknowledges they did a LOT worse, and "getting laid" pales in comparison.

PS: When Andrew stops repressing himself he will be a proshipper too haha

[csg-iii]

Love how Andrew has the Barbie mugshot look and Ashley has the Ken mugshot look! It makes total sense based on how they would probably react to being arrested.

If anyone else has done this before I’m sorry 😅 but i think they fit so well

Late to the party, but I definitely agree that yes, they needed consequences and to earn forgiveness. I get that the writers were probably aware that the show was very likely to be canceled, that's why they wrapped up the plot threads, and if you stop before the cliffhanger (that was about something else entirely), the IC vs MU story was finished, the Purifiers' leader was caught, etc. And I think the writers didn't want to end it with the characters on each other's throats, so they had Andy and Lorna easily forgiven. I'm pretty sure if there had been a season 3 they would have explored more trust issues. I even wrote a canon-compliant fic set between 2x15 and 2x16 (extending the rooftop scene) about Lorna, Andy, and Lauren talking about the stuff that happened and Andy explaining himself and apologizing properly.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/24673687 However, I don't think what Andy did to Lauren was objectively worse than what Lorna did to Marcos. There are a lot of circumstantial points, like the fight where Lauren had a concussion from the landing. Andy accidentally killed Twist with a push later on the season in a similar fashion (she hit her head somewhere), he clearly underestimated the potential for accidents when pushing someone with his powers, and Lauren's concussion was before that. It could easily have been Marcos instead of Lauren (both were pushed at the same time, Marcos was lucky he landed without getting hurt), or even Andy himself could have gotten hurt - when they played the exact same push vs pull game during that dream fight later on the season, Lauren had Andy's ass handed to him (I felt like they got even after that lmao). Also, Andy was visibly shaken after Lauren was hurt and questioned himself, Lorna was the one who made him 'accept' what happened by telling him he had done good. We could see how different Andy is when he actually wants to hurt someone, like when he started breaking every bone of that Purifier who shot at Lauren without any remorse, smiling as he did it. So I'd say circumstances didn't have Lorna and Marcos fight each other, and, because of that, Andy appears worse. Andy letting the Frosts enter his mind to try to persuade Lauren to join their side was awful as well, but Andy only allowed it after Sentinel Services almost killed Lauren and Caitlin, and was convinced by the Frosts that it was the only way to keep Lauren safe (and was gaslighted into believing that, because the IC's intentions were to have Fenris combined power at their side, not to protect Lauren). But Lorna allowed the Frosts to take control over Marcos' mind (to get him to leave the Inner Circle's building after he had expressed his desire to stay with their baby daughter) so I feel they were equal on that point.

I think Andy was circumstantially worse to Lauren than Lorna was to Marcos, but, objectively, I would put both Lorna and Andy on equal footing, and emotionally probably Lorna was worse since she made decisions that, at the time, cut Marcos off from their daughter's life.

I finally watch the last episode…. Am I the only one who is angry about Lorna and Andy coming back as if nothing had happened? Like, do not get me wrong, I loved that they’re back, but both have done horrible things for those they love, Andy mostly, so I hope there’s at least one apology, a retraction because theirs actions was never right, especially Andy to Lauren. Otherwise, I really enjoyed the episode, I mean, not that much, we missed a great opportunity to have Lauren in action, she could have taken her and Catelyn out of there easy, but someone had a great idea to give that serum to her. The episode was emotional in the right spots, I loved that final, Thunderbird collapsing and hearing Blink calling for him in another dimension really broke my heart.

Honestly, I don’t know what to expect from the last episode, it’s the last and I feel like there are so many open spots to solve, and with the great chances of being the last episode of the show, I do not see how everything can be fixed in an episode…

Maybe if the child was loved, she could have turned out differently.

Get Kissed, Idiot

Ashley knows how to rile Andrew up. 😏 Luckily the outcome is to fuck her and not kill her (this time).

Hopefully the gif keeps a readable speed. :'0 Too bad I don't know how to easily make rolling text like RPG maker does, it would have been a cooler visual.
