I keep thinking about q!badboyhalo current arc. The acceptance of the monster hes going to have to become. How casual and even happy he's sounded about it today, "Let's get to work," with a smile on his face and blood on his clothes. How utterly unconcerned he is for himself or his own safety, how he seems to really be struggling worrying for others safety. He's become a lot harsher people have noticed and just... i keep thinking about the acceptance, crossing lines, choosing to be kind until you don't... and then biggest of all I think the eggs will come back but they'll come back to a badboyhalo thats changed. They'll come back and he's all wrong and different, his color is gone he's more grim, the blood doesn't wash from his clothes. He's changed and I'm just vibrating with excitement on what that means for everyone on the island but most of all for badboy himself.
(Im so scared he'll do something and dapper and pomme will be scared of him and no longer want him as a parent and even more scared because im sure badboy thought of that too and accepted that as a price to get the kids back. I can't really see it happening but you never know, cc bad loves to make his character suffer)

Gwen's awkward behaviour with Rio and Jeff makes sense when you consider that she a) has no other friends and her Peter's Aunt May was regularly at her home, there was enough familiarity that she was on a first name basis with May, and b) the only other adults in her life are her work colleagues in the Spider Society and everyone is on a first name basis there
she's 16 and has exactly no idea how to approach Miles' parents because her social circle started off extremely limited and then went straight into the outright bizarre after she ran away from home - it makes sense for her to have a skewed sense of what would be polite when introducing herself to a friend's parents

I noticed something else regarding Far Cry New Dawn promotional content, this time in the Announcement Trailer.
In the video, The Twins threaten the people of Prosperity before brutally executing someone. They say:
Mickey: Listen here, rabbits. You need to understand something: the only currency left in this world is power. We’re going to take everything from you, starting with your home. And if we can’t take it...
Lou: ...we’ll break it.
Mickey doesn’t finish her sentence because she expects Lou to, and we can assume that what Lou adds is exactly what Mickey would have said had she been alone. There’s a great connection and synergy between them.
In the game, the moment they threaten Prosperity happens differently. First, they don’t come right at the gate but stay at a distance. Secondly, instead of beating someone to death with her helmet (which is something she still does in the prologue), Lou places an unpinned grenade in a child’s hands. Finally, they only talk to Carmina and the Captain, and part of what they say, while very reminiscent of the speech we heard in the trailer, isn’t identical to it:
Mickey: The only currency in this world is power. You-- you made us look weak. That ends now. We are going to take everything that you hold dear. Starting with your home.
Lou: And if we can't take it, we'll break it.
The major difference here is that Mickey’s sentence was over, and I don’t think she expected Lou to say anything. Yet, she’s barely done talking when her sister decides to speak... much to Mickey’s annoyance, it seems, as this is her reaction:
The Twins remain very connected and don’t really seem to be in conflict in the game, but I think it’s interesting that Mickey rolls her eyes because of Lou’s comment. Yes, they can still be physically and mentally synchronized, but sometimes, they can also have slightly diverging opinions and get annoyed with each other because, at the end of the day, they’re separate people with different personalities. In my opinion, compared to what the trailer originally showed, the final version of the scene humanizes them more.
