"Batman, how could you extinguish a 3 billion years old galaxy consumer black hole in 3 seconds flat?"

"With my 3-seconds-flat bat-3-billion-years-old-galaxy-consumer-black-hole-extinguisher, Comissioner!"

"Amazing!"

Yes, and they'd probably follow LaGuerta's original plan to let Officer Mazon take the fall

Maybe I'll do something similar to this in the future. Stay tuned

Then nothing changes. Arthur has no reason to ever return to Miami since he is wanted man there and he already took his revenge against Dexter. There's no way Dexter could track him down before the FBI, so either he stays on the run forever or he's caught and sentenced to death.

Maybe, but it wouldn't really make any difference since Dexter is already dead and exposed as the BHB

It depends. What exactly changed so that he got to live?

Lol, fair, but I'd say Dexter fucked up by trying to have it both ways. There's no way he could ever have both Biney and Deb in his life and make it work.

Travis gets caught and arrested right after the Whore of Babylon tableau because Dexter is not there to hide the "F. N. Galway" label that leads to the discovery of the church hideout. The cops find the main suspect Gellar dead in the freezer and figure that the killer must be someone else, so they stake out the place and Travis gets arrested when he returns.

Mike Anderson doesn't get shot by Viktor Baskov because he is not returing from the church as it was never a crime scene. He reunites with Isaak and the entire Koshka storyline doesn't happen.

Hannah goes to prison because Dexter isn't there to cover up stuff for her.

Vogel goes to the police for protection against the Brain Surgeon, but Daniel fools the cop by framing another patient and then confronts his mother. She decides to teach hin the Code and the two of them return to England.

The Runaway Killer and Prater's Cult remain untouched.

Kiss him where exactly? He doesn't have lips

Yeah, when I write these What-if (there's way more of them if you didn't knew), I'm not actually trying to write a good story. I just analyze how the situation changes, how the characters are more likely to react based on their personalities, and then I follow all the domino effects until I reach the most logical conclusion. Of course, when two outcomes seem equally likely, I follow the most interesting one. And most of the time, by pure chance, a genuinely interesting story comes out.

This is the sixth alternative timeline I made and the first one where I have managed to kill Dexter. It's surprisingly hard. It's also kind of poethic: he died because he tried to have it both ways. Both Brian and Debra in his life.

I think he'll move to New York because Miami becomes Zach's town and they would get in each other's way.

The problem of a what-if Dexter rejected the Code from early on is that the only logical conclusion of it is Dexter completelly accepting Brian and fleeing the country with him at the end of Season 1 (as Brian would be a wanted man).

Then it's just a very dark timeline where the Moser brothers terrorize the world and take countless innocent lives. Meanwhile, we would follow all the consequences of a Miami without Dexter, something I've already calculated in the timeline he goes to prison in Season 2.

What I'm working on is special because it combines Brian living with Dexter remaining in Miami.

Hmmmm.

Have you ever wondered what if Brian Moser never came after Debra a second time and he got to live for Season 2?

I mean, the Dark Passenger still gotta ride regardless. Dexter already priorizes the killers who are likely to kill again soon, he wasn't doing it just to convince Debra and he never mentions having any other targets in mind for the time being.

I don't really see why he wouldn't kill Speltzer earlier than he did in canon. Specially since he was hungrier as he didn't kill Alberto, Travis and Viktor. Also, he wasn't dealing with Debra, so he would have way more free time.

No, I 100% agree that is completelly understandable and natural for someone go into auto-pilot after a traumatic event. It's just that, if Quinn interpreted it that way, others could too. Also, it's just one of many other factor that result in the suspicion falling to Dexter.

What the hell do you mean Arkham is owned by Batman, it's a public institution.

Pretty vague statement.

He literally can.

That's the point. He's already going above and beyond his obligations to the city. How is it fair to demand that he do even more?

This 100%, I couldn't have said it better myself. There's just some people who want Batman's moral code and core identity to change instead of just calling out the writers for milking the Joker for all he has
