One of my possible headcanons for Jax is that, if they do end up finding the exit door, Jax is going to be the one who doesn't want to leave the digital circus. He's been here for so long with these people he's come to kind of sort of care about in his own mean Bugs Bunny kind of way that he's terrified of losing them. Not only will none of them know where anybody else is, none of them remember who they used to be, including Jax. Even if he's too much of an ass to say it before right now when they're all about to leave, he really doesn't want to lose his friends.
But there's also the possibility of him having no change of heart or character growth from his loveable wise-crackin' asshole demeanor and I need you to understand that I would love him all the same.

if dorian didn't show up, do you think louis would have shot minnie?
I do. I know some people think either he wouldn't have or he would've missed so that's why the writers had him shoot Dorian instead, but mmmmmm no, I don't personally think so. I like to think that if he had taken the shot, his shaky hands would've caused him to shoot her fatally.
Mostly because I'm already so normal about the fact that of the Ericson crew, Marlon and Louis are the only ones with a body count. Well, that we know of, but shown to us in the game, at least. Plus, we know it's Louis' first kill.
Like yeah, Clementine and AJ become part of the crew and they have bigger body counts, and if we're counting indirect kills caused by actions, then Tenn has a count... and I guess everyone has blood on their hands for blowing up the boat... but I'm talking about killed directly with a weapon like....... I lied, I'm not normal about that at all, Louis and Marlon are the ones who have killed someone in Louis' route. I'm also not normal about the fact that Louis kills Dorian and then even as he's clearly in shock, he tries to go with Clementine to get AJ, and then later on when they talk about it, he says it feels like bile but not quite and he's glad he has it in him to do it.... listen, listen, listen... I'm obsessed with that.
Anyway, so if Louis shot Minerva, I think he would've accidentally killed her and can you imagine? He's already enough of a mess after killing the woman who pinned him down and tried to cut his finger off [or succeeded] but he knew Minerva, they were friends before the twins were taken. Even Violet couldn't kill her even though that would've been the smarter thing to do, and we know thanks to meta knowledge that killing her would've saved lives, but Violet couldn't, and I don't think Louis would intentionally either.
Speaking of Violet, if Louis killed Minerva, I hate to think about what that would've done to Vi. I think she might've actually left at that point, like what was planned before it got changed to her being burned. I don't think she would've attacked Louis over it, though, like yeah she attacked Clementine in the cell but Louis? I don't know, but I don't think so just because it's Louis and he'd be a mess about it anyway.
Though if he did kill her, it would be a neat parallel to draw... y'know, because Louis forgave AJ for killing Marlon even though he was pissed and heartbroken, and Violet was annoyed with him the entire time... but could she ever forgive Louis for killing Minerva? Y'know? We already have a similar parallel with AJ shooting Tenn, but still.
If Clementine killed Minerva in that moment, though, then I could see Violet attacking her since in her eyes, Clem proved her right.
So yeah, I get why they added the Dorian kill to his route. It adds another compelling element to Louis as a character, but we also need Minerva alive for episode 4; Louis can't kill her, he can't miss, and he's not going to stay with her because we need Violet to stay on the boat and him to be on shore for all routes.

sooo, am i the only one who really isn't that concerned about the dev being okay with nsfw of the cast? because, in my opinion, i really don't think it's going to change much of anything — if i'm being honest, i'm more worried about there being more negative backlash at nsfw content in the fandom than before.
like, bro, i'm asexual. i really don't engage with or seek out stuff like that in the first place. and while there are definitely some dramatic people in the fandom (re: the apparent harassment by xanvid shippers over david's sexuality), i'm pretty sure anyone who makes nsfw content of the series would have the common sense to tag/filter their posts as such so people aren't immediately blasted with david buttcheeks when they log onto social media. and if that does ever happen, i'm pretty sure people will also be receptive to adding those tags/filters/warnings/etc. if asked.
so tl;dr, i feel like we really shouldn't be worried about this. if there is an increase in nsfw stuff and you don't want to see it, you can take your own initiative and block tags & content so it won't appear for you (on Tumblr, at least). you can even just block a user entirely if you see fit.

Hunting Batman
What if Danny comes home from school one day to hear his parents in the living room talking about a new client of theirs that bought up a bunch of their ghost hunting gear in order to go hunt/capture the Batman.
And like it's Batman. Sure the dude is a Gotham cryptid. But a Ghost?! Ha. He's totally not. It's a nice laugh and he can see how his parents would believe it. But Batman a Ghost? No. Danny doesn't believe it.
Only. In the middle of the night. After Danny has come back from chucking the Box Ghost into the Ghost Zone for the 15th billionth time. He's still thinking about it.
Could Batman be a Ghost? It seems unlikely, but....he's heard rumors over the years. Of the various Bats and Robins. How they can't seem to die. Or if they do...they don't stay 'dead' for long....not long enough for anyone to track down a body at least.
And IF he's a ghost. And IF this mysterious client is right....then his parents are going to be complicent in capturing and possibly torturing/maiming/trying to kill etc at this point THE BATMAN one of the FOUNDERS of the Justice League.
And despite all their flaws, especially around Ghosts, Danny does not want his parents to be labeled super villains and placed on the Justice Leagues's watch list or worst their Wanted List just because they didn't do a freaking background check on their new client.
So maybe for his peace of mind, Danny tracks down the paperwork. Just to, you know, double check and make sure the new client isn't some crazy super villain and just your normal regular amateur ghost hunter that they see quite often here in Amity.
And it all seems pretty normal. Sure it's A LOT of weapons and containment devices, but it's not like the government doesn't try to mass order them on occasion. So it's fine. It's all fine. Batman will be fine.
Until he sees the signature of the client at the bottom of the paperwork.
A Mr. Joe Kerr :)

I'm not gonna lie, I still kinda feel shocked that we actually get to see Buck as a queer man on screen. I never thought we were actually gonna get that, just wistful thinking. We already had Hen and Karen (amazing) and Josh, and this isn't a - capital Q- Queer show, they're not gonna do that. I don't really know how to articulate this all the way yet, but it's a really good feeling.
ABC is treating us well, and I'm so excited to see what the writers and crew have planned for us.

rhys' acting in our flag means death is honestly SO amazing, especially in the later episodes, there's SO MUCH stuff going on unsaid, in his face, in his body language, it's a fantastically nuanced and rich performance and i just have to scream about it from time to time hsgfaazgfcferswasdf
