wf3: superboy/robin #1
[ID: Robin telling Superboy, “I'd still feel better if we let Federal Authorities handle this,” over not wanting him to pick up a nuclear reactor. Superboy responds, “wuss,” which makes Robin over justify, “I think the Nuclear Regulatory Commission would be better suited to handle this.” Superboy indifferently tells him “whatever” in response. END ID]

The fact that Mike couldn't even say he trusted El until he looked at someone else for guidance astounds me.
In season 3, Mike tells El that she doesn't have to look for Billy because it could be dangerous. El then tells Mike to trust her. Now, he could have just kept looking at her and nodded and said, "yeah, of course I do. Just, be careful." And it would have been a really sweet moment that shows the audience that Mike trusts her, but instead, they show Mike looking over at Max, who then tilts her head and raises her eyebrows like, well? Do you trust her? The answer should be yes. Only then does he turns back to El and say, "Yeah. Just, be careful."
Mike couldn't even tell El he trusted her without looking for guidance from someone else.
This was a choice that the Duffers made. This could have easily been a scene that showed Mike and El starting to repair their relationship after all of their fighting. This could have easily been a scene to show that they still trust each other, even when broken up, but the Duffers chose not to do that.
Almost every meaningful moment in Mike and El's relationship post season 2 that Mike has initiated has happened because someone else has pushed him to do it.
Lucas told Mike to buy an apology gift for El, Lucas told Mike to go talk with El at the hospital, Max told Mike to trust El, and then of course in season 4 Will plays the ultimate relationship counselor (multiple times) and pushes Mike to keep talking to El when she was in danger, which leads to Mike telling El he loves her.
Again, the Duffers chose to do all of this. They chose to have other characters (who are the same age with the same relationship experience, or less relationship experience) constantly have to tell Mike what to do, even things that should be common sense.
If they really wanted to make El and Mike's relationship favorable, they would have had Mike come up with more of these ideas on his own. They would have had Mike do more romantic and caring things for El unprompted.

Imagine if Ivan's dead body haunts Till and in round 7 we'll get brief flashes of him staring at Till while Till avoids eye contact (++stress and angst for me if Luka forces Till to look at him while looking like Ivan)

i think kara and hawkman should have some sort of team-up just bc i think its fun that catar ol (hawkman’s kryptonian past life) was kara’s history professor back on krypton.
i don’t think that hawkman remembers his past lives (?)(←doesn't know anything about hawk lore) but i think their dynamic would be fun anyway. kara trying to form a tangible connection to old krypton by hanging out with the reincarnation of her dead history professor.
