Humanity has finally reached the stars and found out why no one had contacted us. The universe is in a sad state. As such, Doctors without Borders, Red Cross, and many othe charities go intergalactic.

Terminal Hanaki? Boring. Chronic Hanahaki? Exciting.

beating the same RPG four times in half a year's got to be a symptom of something but i don't have the time to unpack that as it would interfere with my fifth playthrough of said RPG

i truly think the most torturous thing kleya has to get used to on yavin —aside from the living arrangements, aside from carrying her grief, aside from everyone being nice to her all the time, aside from the gaping space of her control centre— is she has to be sincere in her interactions now.

she has to make small talk with strangers and mean it. she has to give constructive criticism and mean it. she has to take compliments on her work and mean it. she has to make connections with people and have it stick and get to know them beyond their utility, their skills, their discretion, their disposability. she has to do all the things she used to do as a facade and be genuine about them.

for so long it's only been her and luthen and her various masks; the customer-first shop assistant, the unnerved and relentless comms monitor, the collected and headstrong logistics manager who makes sure people are calm and where they need to be. and then luthen's gone and she's kept everyone else at arm's length and all of a sudden cassian's seen her panic and melshi's seen her scared and vel's seen her dissociate and it's the emotional equivalent of a nightmare where you're in your underwear in class. she has to accept kindness and aid and affection, all things that she's never been able to give others because she's never been able to afford the risk, has to let them know that she has shortcomings and blindspots and vulnerabilities.

she has to, gods help her, let herself be known.

"I see my own feelings through the feelings of others because I don't feel in ways that they do" is some brilliantly respectful fucking writing for an autistic character. She feels very deeply, but she can't explain it, not even to herself. And when she tries to, everyone else scoops in with their guesses and she just gets more confused, but ends up agreeing with whatever they're saying because in the moment she feels like they must be right. Because they know her and they're better at the feelings stuff. Truly, all Parker wants is to be understood. But not only by others - by herself as well. Feelings and intentions are confusing to everyone, but more so to the people whose brains work so very differently from what is considered "the norm" in most any modern society.

In short, I love this episode. It showed me that this new Parker is still my Parker. My first ever favourite and one of the first I've related to without realising it. She's weird and she's honest, and she's bad at socialising, and people confuse her, (especially when they hurt others). And she's also brilliant, funny and loving and incredibly protective, in ways that only a Parker can be. I'm so glad Beth understands her as she does. I love her.

I'm not sure how well it holds up but I like this idea that leverage is told from the point of view of the mastermind of that crew, so the original series is steeped in Nate's anger and rage, obviously it has its lighter moments but the series as ads whole definitely finds a more grim tone with Nate at the helm. On the other hand, leverage redemption is told from Parker's perspective, everything is lighter l and more whimsical, less righteous crusade and more justice (and humiliation) being served, the show occasionally dips into a more grounded tone (from my recollection when hardison is around) but overall it's sillier with sound effects and costumes and brighter colors. Just a thought
