the whole "would you rather be alone with a man or a bear in the woods" thing is so fucking infuriating from all sides like on one hand u got the MRA cunts getting waaay too angry over it and proving that they specifically are Bad People to be alone in the woods w, like yeah no 99% of men id see on a hike who gives a shit but U Specifically are worrying. and on the other hand u have the genuinely worrying notion that some ppl are either so terrified of strangers conceptually that they think the very common occurance of "passing a stranger on a hike" is the beginning to one of their spicey true crime murder horror stories, which as much as i hate to say it Says A Lot About Society (general fear of strangers/lack of community fostered in the U.S.A. and shit and that leads to obsessions with security theatre/further isolation in the name of "safety" blah blah blah u kno the drill) meanwhile when ppl who actually go hiking see this they are just like "uhm idk when i see random dudes i just like. nod at them as i pass by" bc tbey actually Go Outside and realize being alone w a strange man on a hike just. happens. a lot. passingly. OR the possibility that some of these are people who are the reason why they have to plaster "DONT FEED THE BEARS" signs everywhere. which. well there are studies showing that quite a few americans are convinced they could take a bear in a fight, i wouldnt be surprised if a lotta ppl have a skewed idea of How Dangerous Bears Are.

Do lim and garak ever have a genuine bonding moment?
OUGHH I think he has to get a lot of his therapizing done offscreen and internally. He needs to put aside his anger and see his father and his contemporaries for the flawed-but-trying people they are. Iskra doesn't really help, but eventually 'if you'd been born into his position you would have done the same thing to protect Cardassia that he did, except worse, because he's smarter than you' settles in.
Garak has to learn to speak his mind more plainly because Lim sees his vague allusions and crafty lies as a cowardly way to hide unpleasant truths. Galactic politics necessitates that he tones his monomaniac Cardassian exceptionalism down, and eventually that may grow to reflect his genuine feelings (but if asked he will certainly lie, so who knows?) Lim needs to grow up a little, see that his parents are also just people trying their best like he is, and maybe go through the mundane trials of adult life on a stunned and recuperating planet to sand his edges off. It's very gradual.
Also tbh they need some time to develop things in common... Lim isn't very well read, doesn't like to talk for fun and is inconsistently disparaging of anything unnecessarily decorative. But eventually he develops an appreciation for creature comforts and realizes that that doesn't make him a bad person, and then he and Garak can debate about what color to paint the house siding or whether or not the azaleas will grow in full sun.
But he very much benefits from some good yadek hugs now and then...

The Achievement Post Industrial inspired the idea that there are adults in the Pale City that pose no threat to the children, and manage to survive through various 'creative' means.
Unless they encounter a child, like Mono.
Since adults are all 'monsters' and always pose a threat to children - even when they don't mean to - children either avoid or will dispatch the threat. Usually avoid.
Unless it's Mono. He's very protective of his Thin Man.

Ive been brainrotting this since last night, and I really want an OPM Personality Swap au, but just Genos and Saitama
Like. Genos being very laidback and neutral and overall just. Chill. And Saitama is this over the top, overly dedicated and motivated, serious, and pretty goddamn clingy guy.
Genos' behavior is almost exact to Canon Saitama's because his emotions have dulled, a result of him being turned into a cyborg and his brain being affected in the process. He only really expresses anger, and that's majorly, if not solely, the result of his hatred towards the Mad Cyborg. But, when he meets Saitama, he does get attached and slowly becomes more emotionally responsive.
Saitama is this guy who heavily believes in justice and wants to do right for the world using his extreme strength. Granted, he still has his depression (which he had prior to achieving strength. His strength only amplified it) and that constant wish of wanting an opponent as strong as him, but he never lets that show. He focuses on what he does in the now and the fact he protects people. When he meets Genos, he becomes an extremely dedicated "sensei". He tries his best to always teach Genos something, even if it is something small or ultimately useless in gaining strength/power, and he always worries for him.
Genos asks to become Saitama's student because he wants to be stronger, but he also hopes to gain his emotionalism back because self-objectification go brr
Saitama willingly accepts and becomes serious about being Gen's sensei because he wants to help Genos regain his emotions (which, he doesn't know Genos himself wants. He just felt bad about it and wanted to help him) and assist him in his search for revenge. But he also hopes that, if he can teach Genos how to become strong, he won't be so lonely anymore.
Other than that, plot is still the same.

He is ancient in every aspect except the most technical.
Webber: Mister Maxwell, how old are you?
Wendy: I said 98.
Maxwell: Let's see... the twins are 11... so I should be... I think... 43?
Webber: Jesus Christ, have you heard of exfoliating?
