Part 1
I've been taking readings with the limited equipment I've been able to secure. Some riveting data accumulating. Hypotheses taking shape. My struggle with this is that the way this place works makes any hypothesis immediately come back to alter and contaminate the data.
Anyway, I've been working to capture, isolate and amplify certain frequencies from the background radiation ambient noise, so... let's see what happens.
I was caught in a loop. The deeper into the dark depths I got, peeling off the layers of the Dark Place, like the ocean zones, from twilight to midnight, to abyssal to the deepest trenches, the closer I felt to going mad.
This voice, the narration... It keeps going forever. This leads me to believe it's what's holding this place together, it's making it real. Is this the voice of the dreamer?
What's strange is that it sounds a bit like my voice.

SaShiSu first impression headcanons... but more Shoko, because I love her to bits. 💖
On the first day they met (likely on the first day of school during their first year), I like to think Shoko had her moment of, "Oh, I have two very attractive classmates."
She might have (just a teeny bit) entertained the idea of what it would look like if she ended up dating one of them. It's nothing serious -- just a hypothetical thought from a teenage girl honestly, and she recalls that same thought decades later and laughs at the naivety.
Because after the first time Satoru opened his mouth and started talking and being his obnoxious teen self, 15-year-old Shoko was like, "Ew." 👀😷
Suguru's better and more tolerable, but there's a reason why he and Satoru get along too well, you know. Suguru can be a two-faced asshole and easily goes along with Satoru's brattiness.
Plus, as the three of them got closer, Shoko found herself going along with and getting dragged into the most ridiculous situations.
And in the end, Shoko is like, "I'm never falling in love with either of these idiots."
She loves them for sure... But it's like the way you're fond of your annoying siblings, you know. (They're both technically younger than her too -- by a couple of months, but it still counts.)
Shoko has seen their good, their bad, their ugly.
And in another life, in another world, the three of them are best friends forever -- friends until they're old and gray. 👨🦳👩🦳👨🦳
They probably whack each other with their walking sticks.

I came across an article online about the decision to change the Tale of Two Lovers that was titled something to the effect of "a minor change that doesn't make a difference". But here's the thing: it makes all the difference.
I was 12 when Avatar first aired, exactly in the target demographic. I'm watching it now through the lens of an adult who grew up with the show, and I noticed the difference immediately. My fiance, a cishet man, was more excited about the secret tunnel song than anything, but I got stuck on Oma and Shu, and instantly just thought of what it would've been like to hear that so casually mentioned at 12 years old, uncertain of my wlw identity, to have the story of the foundation of the Earth kingdom be of a love between two women. It's so important and I'm so happy they did that.
