Apparently I can only draw when I'm grounded so take some of my favorite characters ever.
[ID: two images of three drawings.
Firstly, a drawing of Ignatius Campbell outlined in yellow highlighter. He is crossing his arms and smiling at the viewer with his eyes closed. He's a biff man wearing a dress with flannel tied around his waist. Beside him, is a list titled with his name. List items are as follows:
-soup
-man-shaped!
-could not take Jet Siquliak in a fight
-you are my dad, you're my dad!
-boogie woogies woogie
-bro your smuggler looks GNC AF
-he old...like 40–50
-not...white? More research to be done
-lil' ponytail
-you wanna hug him.
The second drawing is of Brian Jeeter, a tall, thin man with short hair outlined in yellow highlighter. He looks off to the side, and gestures out with one hand as if explaining something. His other hand is clutched to his chest. He wears cargo shorts, novelty socks covered in eyes, and a shirt habeled "obscure band tee". Next to him is a list titled with his name. The list reads:
-lank
-looks like a youth pastor
-powder keg of wilde stories
-if you ask him if he's okay he'll reply "yeah, dude, I just gotta finish my work" in his sleep
-his blank stare will make you fear him more than space
-33% vibes
-33% love for Krejjh
-33% brains
-1% saw God & giggled
-ginger
The third drawing is of Arkady Patel, a brown-skinned woman sitting on the floor with one leg propped up on a cushion outlined in read highlighter. Her deltoid is labeled "haha...arm flushed"
Next to her is a list titled with her name. The list items are as follows:
-wife No.1
-STRONK
-10,000 EQ and none of it applies to herself
-slouches cause the guilt is real heavy
-nobody is surprised she can drive motorcycles
-not always packing guns unless you count the guns she's packing
-probably the most fun at sleepovers
-evokes a mental image of that one pic of the lesbians doing eachother's makeup on the bed?
End ID.]

how good tpp characters are at hugging
because i really like hugs and love thinking about what it would be like to hug fictional characters
Junoverse/Ruby 7 Crew
Juno Steel: secretly like hugs but would never offer/admit that so you just gotta go for it and let him accept it. Hesitant at first but will lightly wrap arms around you or awkwardly pat your back but in a cute way. Broad sturdy chest good for clinging onto.
overall rating: 7/10 surprisingly comforting
Rita: LOVES HUGS. THE BEST AT HUGS. Has a sixth sense of knowing when you need one and might ask beforehand or might just tackle you and make you accept it (see above). Small enough to really wrap your arms around but also round and soft and shaped like a friend. Surprisingly strong and would definitely make that “MMMM!” noise when you really hug someone.
overall rating: 12/10 a pure delight every time
Peter Nureyev: Gives light but firm hugs. His air of pure confidence makes hugging him seem like an incredibly special privelege and his cologne is enough to make you feel intoxicated in the short moment the hug lasts. Hugging peter is also a mistake because while you’re drunk on perfume he’s going through all your pockets.
overall rating: 6/10 he took your wallet but it was kinda worth it
Buddy Aurinko: Slightly stiff but maternal-esque hug. Gives out hugs like a strategic reward but you’ll take what you can get. What are you gonna do, refuse a hug from Buddy Aurinko?? didn’t think so. Cradles your head in a way that kind of makes you feel like crying and she is aware of this.
overall rating: 7/10 you have mommy issues
Vespa Ilkay: Only lets Buddy fully hug her. She probably gives really strong hugs but it’d be a miracle to get a side-hug and get out unscathed.
overall rating: 3/10 great if you’re Buddy Aurinko but you’ll probably get stabbed if you’re anyone else
Jet Siquliak: Hugs are a very rare commodity from Jet, but are heavenly when given. He’s huge and strong and might lift you off the ground a little. His arms completely encompass you and his jacket is surprisingly soft and smells nice, like an old favorite blanket. Incredibly comforting and if you maybe cry a little bit he won’t say anything (unless you’re Juno in which case he Will point it out).
overall rating: 10/10 wonderful when you can get em
(bonus) Benzaiten Steel: Incredible. Peak bro hugs, strong and full of love and never lacking affection. Lightly teases you if you lean into it a little too much but its okay. Gives them all the time but also the type of hug you miss as soon as it’s over.
overall rating: 15/10 ive made myself sad
Second Citadel:
Sir Angelo: Another Prime bear hug candidate. Will loudly ask if you need one and then proceed to scoop you up into one anyways. So strong and squeezes a little too hard and makes it slightly difficult to breathe but in a good way. Can and Will pick you up if you’re small enough
overall rating: 9/10 it’s worth bruising a rib for
Sir Marc: Not the easiest to hug on account of being on a horse but WILL ruffle your hair and pat you shoulder or back and lightly punch your arm and generally make a lot of small touches to show affection. Will also offer to let you hug Dampierre instead (after he asks Dampierre’s permission of course).
overall rating: 2/10 for the hugs but 8/10 for lil affectionate pats
Talfryn: Tall and lanky but i think that’s great criteria for the hugger’s end, easy to wrap your arms around him. probably smells earthy in a nice way, clearly nervous about giving a hug and it seeps into you a little bit.
overall rating: 5/10 he probably needs it more than you tbh
Sir Damien: Does the “Mom friend instinct overriding anxiety” thing when he can tell you need one. Strong but gentle, probably lightly rubs your back and mumbles calming words to help you relax. might also let a few “Saint Damien”’s slip but it’s okay. 
overall rating: 9/10 himbos are great for hugs
Lord Arum: Seems theoretically nice to hug if you can manage to get one from him. The more arms, the better the hug, right? And then you remember he has scales and is cold-blooded but still probably needs one and would vehemently pretend he did not enjoy it but you know he did.
overall rating: 4.5/10 but you should do it for the bragging rights
Amarillis: Gives a nice sisterly hug. Quick but firm and might peck you on the cheek too. Can also give really soft gentle hugs when you’re down.
overall rating: 7/10 might tell you a really cool science fact afterwards
Sir Caroline: Does not hug. Will not hug. Any information on the quality of her hugs as told by Sir Angelo is to be disregarded immediately.
overall rating: ??/10 Sir Caroline u do realize this makes us wanna hug u more right

Juno Steel and the Tools of Rust (pt 1) Reaction
This episode was a really great one.
Also, this episode is a microcosm of this show’s affect on me: things have been really rough for me lately, but when I started listening to it I was immediately drawn in, and it gave me so much to think about and connect to and feel for. This episode was so much of what I needed at this moment in my life.
Beyond that, spoilers under the cut.
There’s a lot for me to talk about, to the point that I’ve got a notepad next to my laptop for subjects that I feel will need posts of their own later on.
But let’s start with Jet.
Holy shit, Jet Siquliak. 
Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit.
I was in platonic love with him already, when he was this beautiful giant of a man who is patient and quiet and wise and gentle and wonderful. And now we’ve seen inside his head, and I didn’t even know I could love him so much.
Because he’s not patient because it’s his personality, he’s patient because he works really, really hard at it. He’s quiet because he’s making an effort to listen and be mindful. He’s wise because he’s done some shit and he’s hit some serious lows and he’s grown and regretted and learned from it all. He’s gentle because he knows exactly how destructive and cruel he can be, and he has made the choice to do otherwise. 
I’m so glad he’s got Rita around, because I want to hug this man a thousand times.
That piece of wisdom, he shared? That takes on a thousand times greater significance now:
JACKET: We may look backwards only to ensure we have not come this way before. (Soul of the People)
God, he’s had a lot to look back on. 
This is a man who was a serious, serious addict, it sounds like. And now he doesn’t use anymore. Not even caffeine. 
JACKET: It means I am thirsty. It is large because I am very thirsty, and decaffeinated because I have a predisposition to addictive— (Time Gone By)
And despite that, he was working as a bartender during Time Gone By. Not just being in the same room as some serious drink, but actively handling it and mixing it and everything. I know not everyone’s recovery is the same, but I’ve heard enough people talk about theirs that I know that’s no mean feat.
And not just in the lighthouse, but on the Carte Blanche, Buddy talks about both herself and Juno taking liberally from their supplies, and Jet flatly assures her that he’s not partaking. It’s implied that they’re talking about alcohol (maybe that’s the only thing she can really consume for calories?), maybe it’s coffee, who knows, but she’s concerned and non-judgmental, and he’s steadfast.
Seeing that man that we know-- even if we didn’t know him nearly so well-- as he used to be? The Unnatural Disaster? That chilled me to the bone. That hysterical laughter, that intensity in his voice, that utter glee at the thought of mass murder.
And he’s still haunted by it. He refuses to be any part of that, even slightly, but it’s still there, and still a part of him, and he’s got to work with it and fight against it every day.
And right now Rita’s going to help him with it.
Let’s talk about her, shall we?
Because Buddy knew exactly what she was doing, just like she knew what she was doing when she put Juno in a shiny ballgown and had Peter pretend to be his husband. 
Because Rita has the patience of a saint, but also she’s got fifteen years experience dealing with Juno and all his mood swings, all his self-destruction, all his angry outbursts, all his enemies, and even beyond that, she’s incredibly competent and interested.
She’s an incredible stabilizing element. She’s seen it all before, and she’s not going to judge, she’s not going to get mad, she’s not going to be weird about it. She’s going to be gentle when she needs to be, but otherwise she’s going to just be Rita. 
And this episode really brings it home: she knew Jet’s name the instant she heard it. He was the clear subject of not one but two streams, at least one of which involved him committing mass murder. 
And her reaction right away was “and I’m RIIIIIITA!” over and over again, and then she gets on Jet’s bike with Juno. “If she was scared,” Juno tells us, “She didn’t show it.”
The first time she shows any sign of fear is when he takes her and Juno to an empty stretch of desert in the middle of nowhere, and not unreasonably so:
RITA: You, uh, ain't gonna kill us, Mista Jet, are you? Cuz it would be really super easy to right now, there ain't any witnesses and all that, and-- (Soul Of The People) 
And then the ship lands and she gets on it anyway. 
And when she digs deeper into him, she doesn’t see a killer who might revert back at any moment. She sees him as so fundamentally different from who he once was. He’s not like that anymore. She acknowledges and understands the worst of a person, but still chooses to see the best in them, even during a backslide. 
When he slams a door or breaks a reactor, she knows exactly what he’s capable of doing to her. And yeah, you can hear some trepidation in her voice. But she doesn’t run. She’s still right there, soothing him. Talking him through it, bit by bit. When he fucks up completely, she assures him it’s wonderful timing that it got broken while they’re still able to resupply. When he starts stalling, she eases him back into motion.
She is really, really good at bad mental health days. 
And Buddy knew this would be a bad mental health day. She warned Jet ahead of time that this mission was going to be full of triggers. She gave him time to figure himself out, she gave him space, and then when he started self-isolating, she sent him back inside to do simple mechanical tasks with the one person who’s most qualified to help him through this patch. 
It’s just really nice. 
--
I’ve also spoken in the past about the shape of this season, and I think we’re finally starting to see that shape unfold.
We’ve now got Juno, who’s finally left behind Hyperion City, dealt with his mother and the death of his brother, and decided to work on his depression.
We’ve got Peter, who thought he could freeze himself in one state of being forever (”in glass”, if you will) and finally decides to be a part of his own future, starting with all those things he’s filed away.
We’ve got Jet, who’s so frightened of his past self that he gives it its own name and cages it behind a calm facade. 
We’ve got Buddy and Vespa, both of them legends, one imprisoned and one enslaved, neither of them the woman they used to be. 
We’ve got Rita, who’s so mysterious she doesn’t even let Juno speak her name aloud.
And yes, that means I sincerely believe we’re going to get POV episodes from Buddy, Vespa, and Rita before the season’s end, and I am absolutely thrilled. 
Beyond that: we’ve got Nova Zolotovna, who was rendered unrecognizable by a magnificent haircut.
We’ve got our current mark (I don’t trust myself to spell their name without a script in front of me), who seems to be trying to change, too.
Hell, even Dark Matters seems to be in a period of transition.
Right now we’re all about transformation, about coming to terms with the past and allowing yourself to be grow and change beyond it. 
That’s just so cool, you guys.
