#supernova theory

[pokeybananas]

I was on the r/GaylorSwift subreddit and something someone said in passing is a very interesting thought: dating Travis is all part of Taylor's Coming Out(ler).

Since the Eras tour has been over, we've been in a bit of a Taylor drought. We went from hearing/seeing her nearly every week to a social media hiatus longer than the one she took after clearing her social media during Reputation era (not by much). The woman deserves a break! But, let's face it, Taylor is always at least 13 steps ahead of us.

First off, let's imagine a world where Taylor is out. Travis and all the other silly boys are out of the picture (besides Benjamin, he's the only silly boy who gets to stay), maybe Taylor is more public with her relationships, maybe not. But What would need to change for that to happen? I would like to possit a theory: she needs more attention, now, before the Coming Out.

(I'm not sure the time stamp will transfer over, it's 49:08). Essentially what Chely said was that in order to come out You have to be on the top of your career, so as to be the most impenetrable, To be able to scream it from the tops of the mountain, so it can reach the maximum amount of ears possible.

I would argue the Eras tour was the biggest point in her career, thus far. So, she must be planning something bigger? A scary thought!

So, let's go to the place where all the roadmaps lead: The Man subway wall (a tangent!)!

Zoom in...

WHAT IS THAT?!

Were we supposed to get Rep TV in November 2024? At the end of the Eras tour? Now, Taylor obviously couldn't have predicted COVID, which is the time when she came up with the idea for the Eras tour, but the fact that Eras did end in November 2024 is EXTREMELY SUSPICIOUS!!! Also ..

Is this supposed to be Taylor Glitter blood? Does Tyler Swift (aka the Man) have a UTI? Is the Man sick of fame?

Anyway, back to attention (can you tell I have ADHD?). What causes Taylor to get some of the most attention? Her dating life! Men! Okay, on to my next point...

We sure have been seeing Taylor reference a lot of celestial bodies lately! I highly recommend reading this post here to catch up, it's not too long (look at Pokey linking to other posts, someone give her a gold star!)!

Anyway, Taylor's stardom is fueled by attention! She's a people pleaser (insert other relevant lyrics here). So, Let's look at the life cycle of a star (there's a graph, it's fun, I swear!)

So, Taylor is a high mass star (high mass just means it's dense, it's got a lot of attention on her!) (so the line to the left!) Basically the "attention" a star gets (like say, from coming out), the bigger it gets, the more likely it is to blow up (picture Britney Spears in 2008, or of your too young Taylor in 2016). The pressure of fame gets too much and they can't stand it anymore. They collapse in on themselves (like a black hole). They then become a gapping hole of their former selves. And their celebrity status gets everyone who comes after them compared to them for the rest of forever (See the lyrics for Clara Bow). Aka stars require more energy (attention) right before they explode and turn into a black hole (which I personally think will turn into the Queer Black Hole, where anyone famous who comes out ever will be compared to her)

In summary, she's dating Travis so she can get bigger and come out.

Anyway, I'm going to bed. Maybe I'll edit this tomorrow. Maybe I won't, who knows

-what will get her the most attention possible? To cause her to go supernova (the supernova is the explosion)

Supernova theory, will she go out with a bang or a whimper

1) now the Eras tour is over, she's not reloading the rerecords at the previous rate

-she gets the most media attention when she's with a man

-when is big Taylor waving at us demanding attention

-i think he coming out will be the explosion

This is a really good post by @pokeybananas:

Eldritch Kidnappings

hmmmm a Kon/Danny/Tim idea? Maybe? Depends if anyone wanna ship all three but leaving it open ended (or if Tim is already dating Bernard just make it a Kon/Danny only?). AND a deaged Ellie.

Red Robin and Superboy (the original) were at a JL meeting. It was boring to be honest. Nothing to much was happening besides the normal stuff for all the heroes there. No big crises or world/universe ending danger.

Or at least it was...

Because not soon after a glowing green portal ripped opened and a large eldritch creature stuck its huge head and half of its body out. Every hero there went on high alert and into fighting stances, ready to defend the Watchtower. Once the creature was halfway in the room its eyes snapped opened, glowing near Lazarus Pit green colored but like brighter? neon?, and darted around the room before stopping right on Superboy.

Without warning or words the creature quickly reached out, using at first two arms/hands before more sprang out and swatted away heroes in the room that attacked. It quickly took a hold of Superboy who tired use his strength to get free but found the being stronger than him. Red Robin, in a panic to save his best friend (and crush, shhh maybe) quickly joined in but instead of being swatted away like the others gets snagged by a hand and soon found himself captured as well.

Just as quickly as the creature appeared, it retreated back into the still open portal, dragging the two with and not caring at all of the powers, fists, or shouting being thrown at it.

Then it was gone.

Leaving the JL in a panic.

-x-x-

"-And thats why I need your help! I understand its a lot to ask but please, any help will be welcomed." the eldritch being, or rather Danny Phantom begged as he worriedly glanced at them.

So... It turns out the eldritch being was a young halfa ghost hero named Phantom that needed their help stabilizing his clone/sister/maybe daughter?

She was apparently melting and needed stable DNA when he had rushed her to a ghost doctor and was told. But Danny had no clue how to stabilize a clone and the fruitloop that cloned him the notes were bare bones and frankly terrible. In his desperate need for help Danny had sought out clues/advice from his mentor who basically pointed him to Superboy and Red Robin in his frustrating riddling way.

Superboy's DNA had the stable cloning gene/code they needed. Red Robin was smart enough to help figure out a way to put it Danielle 'Elle' Phantom. (it also helped that he had dabbled into cloning during his... bad year)

So yeah, Danny in his panic to save his clone went full on eldritch monster and opened a portal during their meeting and dragged them to the Far Frozen where Ellie was currently suspended in a ecto healing pod and was now begging for their help, promising them anything if they helped out.

The catch? If they put Superboy's DNA in Ellie she'll de-age to her true age and no longer be a 'pure' clone.

Instead she'll be their (Danny and Conner's) kid.

Posting this thread here bc it perfectly summarizes my thoughts on this theory and I want to reference it later

[fhteehj]

okay, I am so excited…

I replayed the roar at the end like five times, and I swear it doesn’t seem quite like our usual Godzilla roar… and the name “Supernova” sounds suspiciously space-like…

also, I took screenshots of the actual merch the Monsterverse monsters have in the trailer (and the hotline is so freaking cool, what a neat little detail)

edit: guys the number is real. The NUMBER IS REAL-

Thought about my theory while reading the trilogy for the first time. I had gotten right that Maggie was Evie very early on but I had also theorized that she'd have a much bigger role in the story. I was consistently getting hype to see Maggie investigate Nova more, like I REALLY wanted to see Maggie be ONTO Nova's identity, and the bracelet was just the beginning.

This went along with my theory that Maggie was found by Captain Chromium and her different name was a result of being put under some kind of witness protection. A niece of Ace Anarchy that survived him just wouldn't be safe if she was in the public eye as Evie Artino. But Hugh and Simon would know, probably not Adrian, and Maggie wouldn't be clueless to her real identity. Theory went that she was trying to find her sister and she'd help Nova escape prison! Maybe..

Nowadays I like some aspects of the theory since it would make much more sense for THAT to have happened, but Maggie's character doesn't align with it very well. It would change her a lot if she secretly had connections to Hugh and Simon, knew her real identity, and all. It would make Hugh and Simon also look a little bit like jackasses cuz REALLY??? THE DUMPING GROUND??? FOR THE ARTINOS DAUGHTER??? WHERE SHE GAINED A SURVIVOR MENTALITY?? If they put her there they'd take her back quickly if they were to be written like they Cared

A more updated au-ified version of this that I thought of was: What if the Tucker Family took her in? Either adopted or fostered, doesn't matter too much for au purposes. Idr how young Adrian was when he met Ruby, but maybe Maggie was at the children's home for a little, they realize it's overcrowded and underfunded, take her out and fund the place, and then they meet the Tuckers.

They'd HAVE to get money for it of course, since they are crammed at their home already in canon, but the family that swears on no secrets sounds pretty fitting for Maggie. Secret girl who wants to know everything about her family.

She gets an older sister and two barely older brothers, she's the baby!! They'd remind her of it constantly and she'd hate it!! She'd be little contrarian. She doesn't get as hyped as her siblings do for the Renegades Council, bc contrarian but her own list of reasons for being upset with them. From failing to protect her family (she knows WHY still hurts), then didn't consider adopting her (doesn't fully understand their reasoning), and Dumping her at an orphanage that SUCKED but they at least took her out of not toooo long afterwards (maybe she'd be there for four or five years? She wouldn't remember a ton but enough to dislike it)

The Tucker's would know at least a little about her backstory, and the gravity of it staying a secret in the family. The twins would know less than the rest, I could see Maggie not wanting them to know as much

Since Margaret Tucker would have a family that'd struggle with money, she'd probably still steal a bunch to help out. She'd have spent some time at the children's home where she'd learn that, but she really puts it to use to help her family. She'd steal, pawn it off, come back and hide the money in various places around their home so it isn't a sudden increase in cash. Just "oh sweet! Must have lost this"

She's not very good at the "no secrets" rule.

One secret they'd def find out about is her becoming a Renegade, but Ruby might defend her. She'll be with clean up teams and could really exercise her asset perception to help the city! She wouldn't be in danger

Maggie Tucker may be a little less of a problem than canon Maggie? Since she'd probably have a little more stable life and having an actual family would do a lot for her methinks. But she'd still steal Nova's bracelet, and No Secrets Maggie who's been waiting for this moment immediately investigates Nova. And Supernova would go different, as well as many interactions between them

(post reveal here would feature sister jealousy lol "oooo your jealous of Rubbyyy!!" Nova: "I'm not jealous!!" "LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE" Maggie loves them equally)

I was looking at this one piece volume cover

And I was thinking.. in the story we had more insight on many of the Supernovas, whether they had a huge part in the story (like Law and Bonney), or just as allies in some arcs but they still had plenty of panels and a focus on them in the story (like Kid, Killer, Bege, Drake) or even as rivals even though we don't know a lot of their story (like Hawkins, Apoo).

The only one person that hasn't had a part in the story, at least not with the straw hats, is Urouge! Aside from Sabaody and a few panels in the New World after the time skip (mainly the one with the island full of lightnings and the part where he prays for Kaido while he jumps off the sky island), we know nothing about him.

Which made me start to think, what if he comes up as a character in this next arc? Since the Straw Hats' story always intertwined with all of the Supernovas at some point, except for Urouge.

He's a monk, but we don't know of which cult.. but we know he comes from a sky island and he's almost always smiling

Source

and it got me thinking.. what if he was also following for the cult of Nika?

I might be wrong about everything in this post, but it would be interesting if he actually appears in this next arc!

@ the Anon who asked about Crocodile and Cordelia, I might have found a way to make it work -

Crocodile is the parent. Whether it's Crocomum or Crocodad will be left open until either Oda confirms anything or I have to come up with something. She was most likely left to the other parent who might have died at some point, leaving little Cordy to fend for herhelf in the streets. Tried to steal from Smoker (I'm not sorry, I was going through the Marines in order to get the facts right for Midori's introduction and what can I say, I'm a sucker for the most unlikely people suddenly having to care for someone, blended families, found families and whatever...) and was taken in to find her folks. He did found out who her other parent was but decided not to take action and instead take care of her (assuming he has family somewhere, he brought her there to be taken care of when he was at sea). I might have to make her younger since Smoker is only in his 30s - if I make her younger, he might have been mid-20s when he found her and she got attached quickly and assuming he had parents somewhere who wanted to give the kid a chance instead of sending her to the nearest orphanage.... hmmmm... She grew up on the right side of the law but also learned not taking shit from anybody and learned to stand up for herself. Although she was offered to join the marines, she decided not to, never having liked rules very much and also having seen some of the not-so-great things the marines did. I think I said she was working on Sabaody in a bar - I'll keep that and have her meet the Supernovas and all to get her more involved with pirates. Eventually she learns who her still living parent is which makes things complicated. She is stubborn and headstrong and will eventually seek Crocodile out. She will have learned basic fighting from Smoker and Tashigi but will gain her devil fruit ability later in the story, after the timeskip somehow. I will need her to get involved with a pirate crew so she can join the events that are happening in the story. I have not made any further decisions but that's what I've gotten so far. Also, since she's family to Smoker, she can interact with Tashigi, Hina, Midori and so on as well so Midori won't feel so separated from my other ocs.
