I know how it isn't the point of belos character but I would love to have a episode about him, caleb and evelyn.
I'm assuming you mean in the context of the Tag Team AU? That's how I'm going to be answering this question, but apologies if you were referring to canon!
I understand where you're coming from. I've been seeing some people get upset about how the legacy trio didn't have any screentime in WaD, and for all intents and purposes an AU has the ability to explore things that weren't focused on fully in canon. I just... don't really know how I can expand on the story more than it already has been told. The AU doesn't affect their story very much, and I think the show has done a really good job at elaborating what happened without drawing attention away from Luz, Eda, and King.
I'm in the camp of believing the legacy trio aren't... super important. Their actions definitely apply to Belos's character and backstory, but that's about it. It especially rings true with the way the Tag Team AU is panning out – Belos is straight up abandoning his obsession with "saving" Caleb's soul in favor of "saving" Luz's.
That being said, I have some concepts about Elsewhere Elsewhen involving Evelyn that I'm throwing around in my mind, and any conflict involving Belos in season 2 and 3 is going to involve some deeper feelings considering both protags were pretty much raised by him. Caleb will just have to keep haunting the narrative for now.

Thinking about William as a metaphor for disability again. Thinking about how William got into an accident and suddenly he's watching his body rot and fall apart. How does he cope with that? How do his family and friends cope with that? Thinking about how he died, and in a way he and the people around him have to mourn that. How when you're recently disabled you might mourn the ability you've lost, and people around you might mourn because they believe they've lost something too even though you're still RIGHT THERE. Thinking about the monsters in Deadwood being attracted to the wisps and ultimately forcing him to leave home and how that reflects the world suddenly becoming inhospitable and hostile towards you overnight. How rather than making Deadwood safer for William, he had to just leave. How often the way the world treats disabled people forces them to retreat from it in some way. How William was just arguing that the Lich didn't have rights because it wasn't alive, and then finding out he's dead too. How disabled people have their personhood stripped from them by people who think they'll never be disabled so why should they care. Are you listening to me

alright now to complete the albatrio. when i think of Chip, i think of fear.
I think of it as digging deep in him, a constant haunt to his life. I think he tries to act like he's strong to cover up the fact that he is scared. He is so scared of being forgotten, of being nothing, of not being enough- But most of all, Chip is afraid of loss. He would look at the black sea and feel an echo of his nightmares, see flashes of losing everything he had gotten. Chip was loved, finally, and he was something, finally, and then it all was gone.
I wonder if he ever thinks about that first ship. The big chipper. I wonder if he mourns it. I wonder if he was such a bastard to test Jay and Gill. I wonder if he was so scared he would be left again, that he would be hurt again, that he lashed out. I wonder if he never fully trusted them in the beginning, either. I wonder if he looked at Jay, and saw Price. Saw her manipulation, and was waiting to run the moment she revealed her true colors. I wonder if he looked at Gillion, and felt scared that he was next to someone so clearly important to someone, and was scared of his own hands hurting that.
I wonder if Chip intentionally pushed them away because he was both afraid of being hurt and of hurting other people. Maybe, in his haunted mind, he remembers that monster in the black sea, or the man he killed, or every other misfortune act of his life.
Imagine how he felt when he saw Lizzie again, just to realize he didn't truly know her anymore. That despite gaining and gaining he still lost. Imagine when he saw Rufus, and could only grieve the fact that he was young and stupid and never appreciate the time on the Midnight Rose. I wonder how he felt when Jay shot Gill. I wonder if he thought he was finally losing the two people he was finally reluctantly trusting. I wonder if he blames himself for what happened to that girl during the murder mystery. I wonder if everywhere he goes, he only feels the lingering feeling of loss.
Remember the fae wild arc?? He lost so much. He lost Gillion completely. And he almost quit after that. Because he has bonded so close to his crew, he loves them so much because if Chip isn't afraid then he is so caring. He loved them so much, that he would rather leave. I have a piece of dialogue saved from that actually
Gillion: Scared of what?
Chip: Of exactly what happened. Gill I handed you that card, and we lost you and I- And it's not the first time- And it won't be the last I- I'm bad luck. I'm a bad pirate, l'm a bad hero. I'm just bad.
Anyways I could talk so much about his fear. Where Jay is guilt and grief, Gill is trust and maybe some retribution, and Chip is love and fear. Where he loves, he is afraid, and when he fears he loves.
I think that's why it's so impactful that he lost his heart. The symbolism of love, his love which was so resilient, stolen. He LOST his heart, and in turn he started losing who he was. Everything he was afraid of happened in that sea.

I NEED Cantrip and Ashe interactions… and specifically I desperately need Cantrip teaching Ashe how to fight
The other three leave Ashe and Cantrip alone for a girls day and they get Ashe back and she now can break noses in 5 separate ways, knows how to punch in just the right way to completely wind someone, and can horrifically go for the jugular with her long ass nails [that Cantrip also did for her while they were together]

Same vein, William + Vyncent singing "If I Loved You" and the reprise
Lizzie and Ava singing "Take Me Back" or Rand and Rolan
"Monsters and Men" being Miss G singing to Dakota, the reprise is Harlem and William (this actually makes me crazy I want to do something with this now)

"High School Is Killing Me" is the Mythborne trio or PD
