This isn’t about Cabby but. Thinking about how Test Tube, who is bad at putting herself in other people’s shoes, did not understand how what happened between her and Fan at the end of Mine Your Own Business hurt Fan, and how Lightbulb showed her how she hurt Fan by physically demonstrating in a uniquely Lightbulb way that I think Test Tube needed in order to finally recognise that she messed up.
Like. Suitcase understands Fan’s perspective because of the time she spent with him in Mine Your Own Business so she tries to make Test Tube understand, but it falls on deaf ears because Suitcase is indirect, and Test Tube still believes Suitcase is to blame for Fan’s elimination so she isn’t willing to listen to her.
But Lightbulb showing her what Fan’s side was like with a tangible example, by taking the tool Test Tube was using and damaging the wing she was working hard on with it? I don’t know. I just think it was a perfect way to do it and I think it had to be Lightbulb that helped Test Tube understand, especially after what happened with them in Alternate Reality Show. And I love that instead of getting scolded for doing things in her way like what usually happens, she’s thanked for it because it’s her specific way Test Tube needed in order to get it.
