gillion tidestrider would find out what being gender fluid means and hed be like “by the gods… even my gender can be wet… we truly are blessed” and jay is like “gill it doesnt mean your gender is wet- it just means you could be a girl one day and a boy the next. or you can be anything any day!” and gill grabs her shoulders and looks into her eyes with the most dead serious look shes ever seen on him and says “jay i can be not only the wettest man alive.. i can also be the wettest WOMAN OR OTHER alive.”

Zane's identity issues. Currently thinking about how in earlier seasons (particularly season 1 and possession) they wanted Zane to act differently than he was, whether that was by making him malfunction or making fun of his 'odd' behaviors

and then how in later seasons Zane seems to consistently lose himself, willingly or not

like he becomes the emperor and then he becomes a detective, and then a pirate captain

it's almost like at some point Zane becomes too scared to be himself (i mean that version of himself became the emperor, right?) and he knows that his friends don't like that version of him either (they've all but chased him out because of it...)

and then we get dragons' rising where he emerges AGAIN after missing so many years, and now he can't even put his own value onto Pixel, he just kind of stays home because at least he can plug himself directly into technology (he can become who his friends want him to be)

and then he finds out about the Zane festival and, amazing! maybe people do like him for who he is!

But the whole thing just seems to boil him down to a robot, the first awful truth about his identity that he realized (don't even get me started on him failing all of the tasks to be Zane's look-alike)

and he had accepted being a nindroid at the time, but slowly over time people begun to see him as 'the robot' There's something so profoundly sad to me about Zane and his fight to be himself, to be more than just a weapon, or battery, or 'the nindroid' Zane so desperately wants to be who he knows he is, but the world seems to put him in a box and it's easier to just make himself fit.

G-g--g-Gillion ... I really liked episodes 97-98. So much so that I redesigned him in my style and made a whole collage.
