#my fascination with him is entirely based in the quote from tfc where he explains why he hates Kevin so much

[void-and-virtue]

Writing fanfic is so dangerous bc whenever I see the name ‘Seth Gordon’ now, my brain just goes “SETH!! My man!!! My dude!!! Allison and Renee’s platonic husband!!!!” And then I have to take a moment of silence as I remember that oh. Oh, in canon, he is first an asshole and then dead

#truly it’s a struggle #my brain saw him and decided he’s free real estate #I just think this guy has so much potential to be explored in AU #my fascination with him is entirely based in the quote from tfc where he explains why he hates Kevin so much #‘his life is not more important than mine just because he’s more talented’ #and the entire conversation surrounding that #Seth is a foil to the part of Neil that is all boundless jealousy over being the discarded one while Kevin Day shines #and just like Seth is often forgotten about I feel like that part of Neil is not often talked about either even tho it’s so essential to him #it’s literally quoted to be the thing Andrew found so interesting as to let him stay #and Seth is a character who potentially could carry that same theme with a perspective that is both unique and complimentary to Neil #which is why I fully am with the EC part where Nora says she thinks they would have been friends #and I would love to see that friendship explored #just like I would love to see Seth’s character growth and redemption leading to a better relationship with the upperclassmen #which is exactly what brings me to Renee/Allison&Seth #Seth and Allison breaking up for good and happily settling into a very committed platonic relationship is something that can be so personal #I have so many thoughts about their relationship rattling around in my brain I swear #and ofc Renison bc they are incredibly canon to me #and I think it could be really interesting to explore where Renee and Seth may find common causes when they are pulled together via Allison #aftg #aftg spoilers #all for the game #the foxhole court #aftg headcanon #aftg hc #seth gordon #renee walker #allison reynolds
