Me: I don't know what to do with Veronica's character in post s8 au, I don't want her to be Just Lance's sister and Kuron's friend with Pidge's storyline slapped on her, but also I'm not really sure about her character. Sure there's the whole lying to her family thing but I don't think that's enough?
Brain: ok so what if Veronica started out as trying to look for what was Lance upto but she ends up being so obsessed with finding the truth that not only she repeatedly puts herself in harms way but also the original goal falls on wayside.
This could be her way of dealing with trauma which is getting engrossed in the Mission and a problem to fix while suppressing her grief and refusing to actually acknowledge her problems and her own emotions a foil to Kuron's arc that is him being literally driven by emotions. She's angry at Lance for leaving without a word and angry at her family for their clinginess, however she keeps it to herself and just avoid them pretending everything is fine and normal
Also a foil to Lance who started as trying to figure out what was going on but as soon as he realized that 1) Allura and Kuron are still sorta alive 2) he can bring them back, he got obsessed with it consequences by damned.
Plus through her we can actually explore how quintessence actually effects and changes humans rather than become aware of the end result
Also there's something a character who is obsessed with truth but is also such a frequent liar

i need to put my thoughts on the devil's plan (netflix reality game show) somewhere so can i just say kudos to ORBIT for his commitment to getting everyone to survive like it truly doesn't make for ~the best television but i respect it so much :') also seungkwan constantly making sure yeonwoo remains in the game is very sweet, though apparently he's going into his villain arc now thanks to seewon's convincing, she's a great femme fatale figure :') also ha seokjin is hot but he keeps giving me :// with his attitude (i rly though joonbin would be like that but he really did change his tune after ep1 good for him!) like truly sucks sometimes when men are hot and smart and aware of both. and then also dongjoo is so hot also in terms of personality im rooting for her!!! and for kyeongrim :') <3

Finally started welcome to night vale, cough because of the poll cough and uh
Okay so I'm on episode 23 and several episodes ago, don't remeber which one, Cecil was going on about the voicemails from Carlos right (if you know the episode please give me the name) I'm sitting here just like
"Oh my God you useless dork. Maybe pay attention to literally anything in there but "can we meet up" holy shit. He's obviously freaking out over whatever the hell is happening in this batshut town, maybe notice that"
Uh, but now I'm several episodes later. Like, a lot of episodes later I think. And he somehow hasn't mentioned Carlos since? Wft he never went more than like, a full episode with out being gay for him what is happening
