// spoilers for dreams of childhood event story and also my thoughts
guess who finally finished the story? me!!! and my verdict?
ooOOOHHHHHKAY THIS WAS A GOOD ONE....I REALLY LIKED THIS EVENT STORY...
of course ever since the beginning i was like "okay stellan stone is absolutely already dead" but the reveal at the end on how and why he passed away rlly tugged at my heart strings because of how close/similar it is to what luke experiences. the protector in the shadows, the unsung hero....of course luke didnt fess the truth right away, aside from the reason explicitly stated in the story, this whole thing also hit close to him
sidenote: there it is again, the staple of event stories where the one the team is supposedly helping has already been gone from the start. and while it's a bittersweet concept, memory and hope matters.
im a sucker for this theme, im never gonna stop loving it, because it's an active rebuttal against the cynicism of "what's the point of helping now?" the point is bringing happiness and closure to the people who are still here, the point is that even if theres things stuck in the past that cannot be changed or undone, theres still joys to be had in the present and future. im emotional abt this, can u tell?
and ooOOAOOAOAOOUGGHH, THE TEAM CARING ABOUT EACH OTHERRR YES YESSSSSSSS //clapping w tears in my eyes
this is what im TALKIN ABOUT, PEOPLE!!!! no matter how much the team bickers or squabbles, at the end of the day, they are all good people. and good people care. and theyre always gonna have each other's backs...
im REALLY emotional about this, cAN U TELL.........
okay last thing for me to be emotional about: their wishes for children
i am quite sure somebody else has pointed this out before, but all their wishes connect so well with their own experiences...
luke who lost his biological parents at a young age
marius who had to deal with the unfair accountability of being blamed for his mom's death and also many more von hagen worries
vyn who was so frigging lonely growing up and did not have a good example of love and good hearts in his early life to look up to
artem's took me a second but then i remember his connects well to the plotline of his 2nd bday card story (which we dont have on global yet) but SPOILERS: somebody he looked up to became corrupt and he had to take that person down
just in case it wasnt clear the first two times i said it: IM REALLY EMOTIONAL ABOUT ALL OF THIS......
I WISH THAT TOO, MC.... GOD......
