3 years have passed and it feels like a blink of an eye.
This series means more to me than I could ever put into words. The people I've met, the stories I've made, and the community I've found myself in-- it's been an absolutely wonderful ride, and some of the best memories I've ever had on the internet.
From the bottom of my heart, this series is so special to me. Thank you to everyone who supports me and adores this series as much as I do.
I went in to this season expecting it to be a bittersweet ending.
I expected them to end up dead in the original apocalypse.
I had hoped we would see five become the old five that created the commission. I was expecting them to realise that in all timelines an apocalypse takes place but the original was the best for what ever reason. Or maybe the original time line wasn’t the best but five got twisted in some way in to believing it was.
I expected the new time line to be much faker. Maybe the people would be oddly robotic. The whole world would revolve around Reggie but none of it would be real. Or maybe it would be real but people were not allowed to do anything he would not want, 1984 style. After seeing how he monopolised this world in s3 I had hoped that would have been explored.
I thought we might see Alison slowly coming to terms with the fact that Ray and Claire weren’t really her Ray and Claire. They were created to be hers. They would be exactly how she wanted. They would never disagree with her, they would do exactly what she wanted without her having to ask. But it wouldn’t be real. And Alison would notice. They wouldn’t have the autonomy to do anything but serve her so how could they be hers. She would still love them but hate herself for turning them in to this.
Maybe the only way for anything to be real, for anyone in this world to have the autonomy to do as they please, they would have to restore the original timeline.
I don’t know, I just think I would have preferred any other ending to the one we got.
