While I've been at work we have these little cards and such we can draw on to put people's names for, but I thought they kinda looked like Pokemon cards. I. Don't really know how Pokemon TCG works but I know I like these guys and I think coming up with moves for them to use and giving them stats can be fun, even if they aren't especially accurate
Feat. my gel pen that would Not Dry Fast Enough and smudged so much
Getting in Deep and all the characters shown belong to @peachnewt!

“Joel was wrong it should be Ellie’s choice”
Yeah, it should be Ellie’s choice. Because she’s a child and this is everything her journey has been building up to. She should know all the risks that could come with and what it ACTUALLY (apparently, considering they did no scans or nothing???) takes to make a cure. She should be told everything. But if they kept her alive, she’d probably ask questions that the fireflies would not be willing (or able) to answer, hence keeping her under and not telling her. They were scared. They didn’t know what the hell they were doing
But think, for a second, that he’s the not the one who ‘took it away’ in the first place. The fireflies took Ellie and knocked Joel out. They did not tell her what this would entail. They got her under, somehow, and had no intention of waking her up again. They took away her choice and any agency she had WAY before Joel did. They were going to murder her in cold blood with NO certainties
Is what Joel did morally wrong? Yeah, I mean he killed a ton of people, that’s terrible no matter what way you slice it
But that is his child. I have little kids in my life that I love more than I can comprehend. You know what I’d do if their life was on the line like that? Whatever I had to to save their lives. You expect Joel to just sit there and say “yeah, go on ahead”??? Joel would not do that, not after what they’ve gone through and what they’ve become. He wouldn’t do it because he is a father. Because his child means more to him than some world that’s already twenty years deep into the infection. He loves her more than a world full of raiders, slavers, and cannibals that a cure couldn’t change the ways of
Marlene wouldn’t have compromised with him. He wouldn’t have compromised with Marlene unless they woke Ellie up and were able to run scans and things and Ellie agreed to let them do things that would NOT kill her. But that’s not how it went, so it came down to the extreme. Kill them all to save her. And really, you can’t blame him

mmmmm something about ellie having a violent heart....idk that i agree? ellie absolutely resorts to violence, but i see that as a product of the world she's in vs a natural part of her personality.
i guess i think in regards to her interactions with marlene and maria and tommy and """staring girl [D I N A]""". marlene was a direct threat to her, according to all precedence set, but all she does is pull out a knife? she doesn't even attempt to hurt her.
ellie is prickly and distrusting of maria and tommy but again, doesn't react with violence. same with dina- verbally, she lashes out, and some tough body language, but thats it.
ellie reacts violently wherein she's cornered, where she's threatened and there's no other option (or at least no other better option), where's alone and cornered and afraid.
she likes when joel killed the FEDRA dude, not cause of the violence, but because of the protection it offered her. she's easy to forgive and overlook violence because of the world they're in, the choices available aren't exactly aplenty.
but violence for violence sake, for the enjoyment of it, or for the relief and satisfaction of it at least (akin to joel and violence), that's not ellie.
it's why the second game is so hard - we watch her implement the behaviors she thinks is required of her and we see it chip away.
idk i think that's the biggest disagreement ive had with the writing team this whole show - ellie isn't activated or brought in by violence.
shes activated and brought in by protection.

tragic time travel/time fucker characters are so interesting bc you have:
the happy ones with the capacity for great angst
the ones who lost everything except spite
and the ones who lost their mind
