Oh you guys don’t understand how hard I’m trying to protect your feeds from my current Josh Hutcherson brain rot.

see i think im the ultimate duck understander bc i believe:
• the other two of the trio mean the world to him, he loves them
• he WOULD actively and maliciously sabotage any way for them to permanently get out of the house
• he does not care about the other twos mental health whatsoever, not near as much as he cares about their physical health & direct proximity to him
ALL AT ONCE!!

It's been rolling around in my brain the last few days for some reason, but I still hate the family backstory reveals for Sophie and Eliot. I've seen some of the meta for it, but quite frankly, it still makes no sense. If it had been something actually thought of and intentional in the original, I think it could have been so fascinating. I mean, Sophie's willing abandonment of Astrid to contrast with Nate's loss of Sam or Eliot's adoption in contrast with Hardison's and Parker's? Could have been excellent! But they came out of nowhere in Redemption and don't work with these characters.
Sophie was still actively using the fucking alias that she met Astrid under! She met with someone from her past on the show! Like. Quite frankly, that one is unequivocally bullshit that they made up and threw in and pretended could fit with the established canon. (And I'm sorry, but the idea of Sophie abandoning Astrid and never telling Nate about her just... So much of Nate's trauma was rooted in the loss of Sam, and I think that introducing this element after he's gone and unable to respond to it taints Sophie and Nate's relationship in a way bc I'm not exactly sure how Nate would've responded to learning about this but I think that it's something he'd have needed to know. I don't know how to fully express my thoughts on that but yeah.)
As for Eliot, I don't like the adoption aspect literally at all. The way that he would interact with his family and the memory of his family would be different, and I think that it's flat out ridiculous to think that he'd have never mentioned it to the team in the original show, especially when dealing with the kid cases. (I also dislike the biracial adoption as its own element because if Eliot was actually raised by Black parents in the... idk what 80s/90s? That just. doesn't feel congruent with how they write Eliot interacting with PoC, not necessarily in a bad way, but babe, he's written like a white southern man raised in a specific kind of culture that does not jell with that. It also makes Eliot look... really bad that he was apparently raised with the knowledge of how fucked up the military was and his parents' history and made the choices that he did.) Like the show may not have explicitly stated it but the implication of that relationship was vastly fucking different throughout the original show.
Just. These were not backstories that were congruent with their depiction and characters in the original show, and they're also just moves that I don't particularly like or find interesting directions for those characters. There's also something to be said about how it was apparently unacceptable for a woman to not have kids or someone not reconciling with their biological family when that was something that the original show handled a lot better. Out of all the directions to take Sophie and Eliot's stories, that's just not really one that I think was a good idea.

uhh wdym that’s how billy died😭
more or less😭the main story with Pat Garrett and all goes that he was at some house and he either heard a noise and got up in the middle of the night or he got up in the middle of the night for a snack/drink, and Pat Garrett surprise attacked him, shot him dead :/ and there was the ‘famous words’ he said which was “¿Quien es? ¿Quien es?" (Who is it? Who is it?)
that’s like the most accepted story, I believe but obviously there’s lots of theories of if he did survive somehow or that’s a fake story, and he got away blah blah, but regardless…imo…he died
Also sorry gonna rant…is this the time to also say, I really hope btk the show goes with this story and like some of what Tom has said about the show’s writer and all, (like about how he’s filling in the gaps that history hasn’t told us and it’s obviously historical fiction so it can take other routes and such)
it does make me wonder if the plan is to go by one of the theories instead and have Pat sorta help Billy fake his death or smth, but I really hope they go with the story of Pat killing him cause like…the reason billy has this sort of folk hero/famed outlaw status now at least is also CAUSE of his death. Cause he did so much and he was so young, and it’s also…tragic. Like his story is a tragic one and I feel like the show is painting it that way already, and I think without that, his story almost doesn’t have the same impact it would if he just…got away and disappeared like it feels too perfect???? Yk??? And the show has already hinted at his death SO many times…idk does someone get me??? I want him to die in the show I feel like that’s the most meaningful way to go about it like it just takes away from so much else😭

rewatching scenes from tybw is making me think about the dynamic between jūshirō, sasameki, and shunsui and how they each carry their own darkness or burden. they all have something that they can't or won't share with most. and despite that, they're like a balm to each other and carry those burdens together. it's, in my humble opinion, the foundation of their dynamic as a family

going through henry's tag and experiencing psychic damage with every third post saying some of the craziest shit you've ever heard in your entire life, because the idea of henry targeting will the way he has since season one suddenly makes liking henry too uncomfortable for some people, leading them to engage in insane mental gymnastics trying to twist canon this way and that, even though that's what the story has been leading to this entire time and the show literally told you multiple times from four different character's mouths, one of which was henry's own, that that was indeed the case lol

Just want to rant about Kai a bit, and how he is in Season 1.
Because I fucking hate him in Season 1. I'm sorry, but he's just such an asshole. And not a funny and lovable asshole. Just an asshole, whether it's about the green ninja shit or Nya being a girl.
And he does improve after his True Potential episode (due to character development), but prior to it (and actually during part of it) he's just unbearable to me.
And I remember that as a kid I hated him as well during Season 1.

i feel i need to clarify im not hinging on any ludinus redemption arc nor do i assume he could ever redeem himself to others for his past actions, im just the kind who goes absolutely feral at the notion of it. i felt ashley above game as fearnes "i want to fix him but i know i cant" to my bones but felt like we were crazy & objectively wrong for it. and now. matt is heavily hinting through all of cooldown & sdcc about it and seems so attached to the elf i dont want him to lose him yet
