So the “it’s gotta effect our mcs in someway or most of the audience won’t care” thing applies to most story beats, but anyways-
(Disclaimer: this is just me brainstorming at 4 am cuz I can’t sleep)
(Just a work in progress idea) Imagine if we got to follow Theresa and Siegfried’s dreams? Like, maybe Theresa’s is just basically Cooking With Valkyries, and Himeko, Otto, and Cecelia are all alive and they just get to hang out with each other again. Otto is just a regular mischievous grandpa with no ill intent, St Freya is just a normal highschool, and all her students have to worry about is their upcoming midterms instead of the end of the world. Theresa only starts to notice somethings up when a second Kiana appears. Somehow, Siegfried and Theresa find each other and realize that they’re the only two people that are actually real in their now merging dream, so they decided it’s time to haul ass out of there and find their real kids/students. Unfortunately, the path out is the memories of each of their loved ones deaths with a heavy focus on the parts that they feel guilty about.
For Cecelia, maybe Siegfried resents himself for not being their with her and later “loosing” their biological daughter, and Theresa feels she could’ve prevented the whole Sirin incident in the first place if she acted against Otto sooner. With Himeko maybe Theresa regrets not looking for her, or that maybe she could’ve survived if they’d gotten to her sooner, or maybe just wishes she could’ve ever found Himeko’s body and given her a proper burial. And Otto… oh boy, Otto. He was a terrible person and they both know he’s a terrible person, but he’s still family to both of them. He raised Theresa and helped bring together Siegfried and Cecilia (even if it was to forward his own goals), plus he’s a member of one of the three major houses, so Siegfried has probably known him his whole life. They probably both have a mixture of fond memories, ingrained respect from childhood, and a certain level of resentment towards Otto, and a writer who’s thought about this more than I have could probably think of a scenario where’d they’d have to confront all that + his death and their new found responsibility to lead the new generation.
Didn’t the Herrscher of Bindings ability have something to do with locking people in dreams (or was that just PE HoC)? Either way, maybe have Theresa gain binding on the way out. Also maybe instead of having Grey Serpent guarding the dreamscape, it’s Hare and they gotta fight her to get out
Imagine if we got to see Kevin’s dream and have him break out of the dream by realizing that the future Dr.MEI planned for him isn’t actually something that’s been good for him. Idk, I just want nice things and character development for Kevin
TLDR: Ara Ara AI-chan was a mistake, Mihoyo should’ve just let Theresa and Siegfried figure this shit out on their own, and Hare should’ve been their enemy to face, not Bronya’s.

Cozy Glow is such an interesting litmus test for die-hard bronies. I was checking r/mlp to prep a post and there’s a discussion post about how she deserved what she got and. How do I tell bronies that children should not be tried as adults. How do I tell bronies that psychopaths and sociopaths deserve human rights and treatment and support. How do I tell bronies that cruel and unusual punishments are bad. How do I tell bronies that the death penalty is wrong. How do I tell bronies that a ruling body should not have absolute say over putting someone to death, least of all a 6-year-old child.
These are all my recent google searches.

People who don’t understand the Arya and Sansa sibling bond obviously didn’t have WWE style brawls in the middle of the living room floor with their sibling.
You can hate each other, say heinous things, full on battle until first blood.
But you’re still siblings,
all the Arya-antis and Sansa-antis are placing too much weight on the events of kings landing.

I love three houses discourse because I'm pretty sure everyone just picks their route based on which house leader they're the most gay for and then tries to defend their pick by pointing out the other sides's war crimes via twitter memes. Reader, all four of them do substantial quantities of war crimes. So many. We're just here because the woman with Issues and a big fuck-off axe said so, and then we gotta justify everything she did in the name of dismantling the class system. I mean, I'm here for that, but you could also try justifying Charm Man uses poison and perfidy to try to stop racism, A Sad Little Meow Meow gives no quarter instead of doing therapy, or the Thicc Pope tries to bring back her mom via human experimentation, depending on your tastes

I feel like Crystal is going to have so much going on in season 2, and she is probably not going to handle it super well at first… just a guess
She’s trying to piece together her old life, coming to terms with who she was (not a very nice person) and who she is now that she has her memories again, her parents didn’t even notice that she went missing, Niko “died” saving her and I suspect she’ll have no small amount of grief over that, and David is buried in her mind and we already know he’s going to cause problems with the tree if he stays there too long. That’s. That’s a lot. Poor Crystal :/

in terms of ships involving equius, which one interests you the most? if you feel like talking about it. for me, i enjoy almost any ship with equius ONLY if the writer/artist understands equius. and the other character as well of course. but i just click off if i see the writer just blatantly misunderstand equius.
My favorite Equius ship is the polyship of Estrogen <> Equius <> Therapy. If Equius survived, this would be endgame. My dad works at Homestuck, so trust me. I know.

People need to accept that some times, a person is just Evil. And there can be lots of complex and nuanced reasons to be evil, but at the end of the day… they’re still evil. And just cause they’re a teenager right now doesn’t undo that, especially when every time they’ve had a chance to step away from evil, they doubled down.
Sorry you wanted her to be some manipulated little pawn but no, she’s a Mastermind. She made the choice, she murdered her friends.
Kipperlily is Evil.
If she didn’t do something in High School, she would’ve done something eventually. She’s a school shooter who slipped through the cracks and was failed by the adults around her - but end of the day she made the choice and is evil
Her best friend, the only one who ‘got it’ seemed to think that she was too far gone.

Also ngl I kinda love the concept of Debling courting Penelope and Colin getting jealous because of it, not because I ship it (he’s barely a character) or because I’m part of the crowd that wants to see Colin ~suffer (though I’m not opposed to seeing him dramatically yearn), but because the reason Penelope specifically is going after this vegan man is so fascinating to me. Like, she obviously doesn’t love him. But she will marry him to protect LW… she’ll marry him to please Portia, that’s so funny.
Girl’s so desperate to escape her awful family life while at the same time keeping her secret, but she also wants her mother’s approval. And she’s so caught up in that toxic mindset that she completely misses the guy she’s been in love with since childhood making heart eyes at her from across the ballroom.
Pen only has her parents’ terrible marriage as a frame of reference, so she probably thinks it’s a bonus if her future husband is much older than her because that could make her a young widow. He’ll leave the country for the majority of the year to fuck off to Antarctica? Oh to be left alone by your own life partner!!!
Meanwhile Portia is enthusiastically nodding behind Penelope like yes, perhaps he’ll die at sea, and neither of them think there’s anything wrong with this outlook in life.
Hilarious.
