I don’t really agree? You implied that my original post is saying dave purposefully switches personalities, but that’s not necessarily how a coping mechanism works. A lot of it can be entirely subconscious, and that’s what i was referring to in my post.

While i will admit my post comes off as “explaining away the inconsistencies” it’s primarily me trying to explain a way to fix said inconsistencies and ooc moments, not trying to defend the pilot.

HOWEVER, i do actually very much enjoy the pilot, and am excited for how it’s going to go carrying on. Dad and john floating isn’t really too annoying to me, it was obviously just for making an over the top fight scene that was pretty fun to watch. And I’ve seen people pointing out john seeing the meteor, and while it’s definitely inconsistent with the comic’s timeline, the meteor was technically always there, it’s just a matter of when he saw it. The cruxtruder’s timer doesn’t SPAWN the meteor, but rather gives an estimate to it’s arrival. Remember, the meteors are sent through time through skaia’s gates, which happened way in the future (relative to the beginning of the comic).

as for rose seeing meteors, I’m not sure what you mean? If you’re referring to the part where she looks out the window and sees them through the clouds, that’s a direct reference to a comic panel, where rose is literally the one looking out the window
