softe (but still fucked up) edizzy thoughts
Ed has nightmares about becoming a monster. Izzy can always hear him crying through the wall between their rooms so he just goes and lets himself in and talks quietly to Ed until he falls asleep again, whispering that it's okay, it's all okay. Izzy doesn't care if he becomes the worst monster this world has ever known. He'll follow him all the same, until the very end.
Izzy always flees before dawn, presuming that Ed's still sleeping and doesn't really know he's there/thinks he's talking to someone else - but he's wrong. One morning, Ed asks why he says stuff like that and strokes his hair and is so fucking nice to him when he thinks Ed's unconscious. Izzy panics because he's a ridiculous little man (affectionate) and blurts out that he's only doing it to protect Ed's reputation, because if anyone else on the Queen Anne's crew heard such 'weakness', there might be a mutiny.
Ed is silly enough (also affectionate) to believe him.
Even during the Kraken era, though he probably shouldn't out of self-preservation, Izzy still goes and just sleeps beside the bed in case Ed wakes up in a panic and needs someone to hold his hand. Even if it means Izzy loses a few fingers...
Then, at some point post-S2, Ed is facing off against an enemy twice his size. The enemy's got Izzy boxed in, so Ed steps in to distract him. The only problem is, there's no way for Ed to take this huge guy down non-lethally. He's getting a tiny bit panicked and desperate and trying to come up with a fuckery to get him out of this without violence then -
Then a sword sprouts from his enemy's chest, from behind
Izzy, his bloody right hand, kicks the guy to the floor and nods at Ed. No words are exchanged because none need to be
Ed comes up to Izzy after and helping him wash the blood off. That night, he crawls into bed beside Izzy rather than waiting for him to come to him, and falls asleep immediately in his arms. Because now, his nightmares aren't about becoming a monster and being unloved - he did that, and he's loved anyway. His nightmares are about losing Izzy.

Hey, so I just remembered something that I think is hilarious.
Qifrey von Witch Hat Atelier has canonically tried to gaslight a child. I'm going to go look back in the volumes for reference, but I'm like 99% sure he tries to textbook gaslight Tartah after he erases his grandpa's memory and to my memory, succeeds.
I want to make it clear: this is not a condemnation of Qifrey's character in any way, he will always be the poor little meow meow of my heart. He can break as many geneva conventions as he wants and I'll only love him more for it. I am only pointing this out because 'gaslit a preteen' is a very funny thing to add to his list of red flags.
I can't wait for the anime to come out because you know the discourse around Qifrey is gonna be as hot as his

I know this has been said many times already, but with Fallout especially, I do wish that they released a new episode every week instead of just dumping it all onto a streaming platform. I wanna speculate about what happens next with other random people online! I wanna have time to build up my blorbos! The way it is now, it all seems kinda futile. The fate of the characters (for this season at least) is already known, and the internet is already full of spoilers. I can ration this for myself but by the time I get to the end, everyone will have long moved to something else. And it sucks.

Cody and Crosshair fighting the Seppies is such an interesting scene because morally you know you’re supposed to root for the Seppies: Crosshair and Cody are brainwashed envoys of a fascist dictatorship.
But clones fighting clankers are such a classic, feel-good battle setup and we’re still not used to clones as villains so there’s this instinctual conflict of “who’s side am I on here?”
Really great method of conveying the absolute bizarreness of this era of the Galaxy; everything that was once taken as fact is now thrown on its head.
