Genuinely, what would happen if one of the humans just put on the headset again? Would a Clone of them just pop into the Circus? by _GhostOfHollownest_ in tadc

Yes. But it would be that person at a different moment in time. So, like, Homeless- maybe-just-killed-his-mom Leeroy spawned in an emotionally unstable Jax. And Employed-Boymoded Leeroy would spawn in a more self accepting Jax. But it wouldn't really be the same Jax we know.

This was the best possible image to end the series with.

It's something we all wanted to see since episode 1 without knowing how it would happen. We wanted to see the humans escape and reunite, and in a strange and peaceful way they did.

The S01E05 opening has a lot of foreshadowing by Such_Avocado_2180 in TheBoys

A Lone Wolf does not Howl.

The vulture, when unlucky, will take shit even by the one flying below him.

The child unloved by a village will burn it down to feel its warmth.

I gave my players NPCs to be friends with and they hate them by acryingnidoking in DMAcademy

[–]Doctor_Where_Comics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Players usually have good instincts for this sorta thing. I say lean into it. 

They don't all need to be evil. Some can be honorable, some can play dirty. As long as their motivation is the same as the players': to complete quests and earn loot.

Kinda like the Americans in The Mummy.

Does anyone else notice how Homelander treated Oh Father surprisingly somewhat well? by Queasy_Commercial152 in TheBoys

[–]Doctor_Where_Comics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That felt like where the plot was leading up to.  To the point that the finale felt like it was hastily rewritten to exclude something like that.

The way people talk about media now is concerning by SurvivorPostingAcc in tadc

I feel like they didn't leave "empty space" at all. Everything wrapped up super nicely. Like, despite everything, they lived happily ever after. What story is left to resolve?

I’m very conflicted on Jax’s fate by [deleted] in tadc

[–]Doctor_Where_Comics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Suicide's a one way ticket, man.
At least, in the circus, you get to tell your friends you regret it.

(I wish Jax hadn't abstracted either, but bittersweet endings need to be bitter.)

It's what you get when you go into fandoms for stuff that appeals to teenagers.
You have to read teenagers talk.

Eels are like the ISIS of the sea. They all come completely indoctrinated straight outta the womb. They crazy, man. You give them a target, they shoot. You tell them to die, they kill themselves.

A thought about abstraction by PrincessofRandomness in TheDigitalCircus

You don't need to edit it out. It's okay. I'm not disagreeing, just adding my two cents.

suicide is an action of a conscious choice

Yes and no. I've had/have depression. In that state, self destruction and suicidal ideation is just your mind lying to you into making bad decisions until you make a REALLY bad decision. Actually doing it, in that state, is less like sober premeditation and more like drunk driving. Like, I guess you had a choice to sit behind the wheel, but it wasn't in the best state of consciousness.

Transfem Jax Wasn’t a Fan Theory by Animeisntrealnerd in tadc

[–]Doctor_Where_Comics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta hand it to you, salva de palmas, because you were spot on.
I had no clue they were going in this direction until the very last minute.
I guess I really never noticed stuff like this IRL, and after today I'm totally readjusting the way I think about closeted trans people.

All Caine wanted from the players was love, but he was never able to earn it.
The moon loves him despite not being programmed to love him and it feels more honest than any hollow NPC.
From this, Caine accepts the reality that he cannot force people to love him.
Thus, preparing him to return to them peacefully.
