andornatural is like. i just wanna take eric kripke's stupid american exceptionalism stupid machismo show and make it about the very special fucked up ness of an immigrant mother and her immigrant son.  recasting teh john figure as a female irish immigrant in the 1960's and the dean figure as a modern male mexican immigrant well that’s just going over the entire thing with a red crayon.  the whole hunters as diaspora metaphor. your house is burning and it’s always burning. and like the subliminal rage maarva has towards cassian essentially having the same job she once did so she takes it out on him as being some kind of dissapointemnt. that's REAL immigrant family dynamics. real diaspora vibes. the idea of her being angry with him for not achieving the American dream but also he can't because that doesn't exist but also he can't because they're hunters they gotta be On the Road or else people will die it's not a culture you can leave it's not a path you can walk away from they have no choice but to keep following the hunt. also supernatural did one (1) thing better than andor and that’s having a love/hate honor and shame profoundly fucked up relationship with a parent who took you on the road. let maarva have a john esque absent god role in cassian’s story
