man. cassandra. timeloops.

i actually really like what ally and brennan are doing with kristen this season, which is new because i found her arc in the prior two fantasy high seasons to be kind of lacking in comparison to everyone else.

it helps that they've pretty blatantly leaned into the way that kristen sucks (in the way all teenagers suck.)

but also i feel my adaine muse creeping back..... the rage driven villain adaine............. fallinel being reduced to ashes, solisian machines marching across the forests of sylvare to catch and murder her mother.....................................................

rage Adaine is so your niche

my only disappointment with the episode is that we didn't get to hear what every bad kids' bad rage future would be

I know it is good, cause there is no way they would've all made those saves, but I just want to know!!! What if the bad kids become true bad kids

i also kind of wish fig's worst kid bad end was like. more hers y'know, less about the whole bad luck curse she's got right now. i wanna know what fig's villain arc would be because i have opinions on it and they're fairly different from that. namely i think they would involve driving spire into violent delirium built off nothing but rage and chaos.

i thiiink most of the boys wouldn't be as explosive in comparison. fabian would probably just become a violent conquering pirate king like a mix of kalvaxus and his father, riz would still be ostensibly a good guy just like, extremely ruthless and cold about it. gorgug i think would just be considerably more volatile and explosive in his rage.

i could see gorgug being forced/manipulated into becoming a champion of one of the various evil entities after his anger drives him to be categorized by the larger world as more "monster" than "person" but he's pretty unambitious by himself.

nodnod. I've actually just started off on a PSL with that as a basis for Riz. He's just.

but like

not whiny 'oh no, I cannot kill or there shall be the same amount of killers in the world' batman.

batman but in his "robin i think we're gonna have to kill this guy" era

i think riz would still manage to be a better parent and friend

some of the first things he did was become a warlock of Cassandra so Kristen wasn't burdened with solely keeping them alive anymore, and killing Adaine's mom so she could have her inheritance. That is. Friendship behaviour.
