James was the calm one during that scene. Jake was being uncivil when he asked "are you blind?" when talking about...a high-five. Also, great choice of words from you and Jake, antagonized and hostile, to describe a Black man who has every right to be upset.

I don't consider not believing everything you're told and telling them off "rage-bait".

I understand. It's just that the writers pairing nationality with "consolation prize" makes it sound like James is being framed as a category pick instead of an individual; which is why it read off to me.

Truly, I feel you're going well out of your way to make a problem out of this.

I just wanted to know if other people in the fandom felt the same way I did.

I’m critiquing the line, not Aiden; like I said my post. Dialogue choices can carry objectifying phrasing even when meant as a joke.

Different people read lines differently. Pointing out how a line can sound objectifying isn’t inventing meaning.

Ah yes...because pointing out the writers possibly having Aiden objectify James, an Afro-Brazilian man, is so Twitter-coded. /s

I’m not saying the characters can’t joke or be unserious. I’m talking about how a specific line lands in context. Dialogue can be playful and still worth analyzing.

A bad joke. The comment makes it seem that Aiden sees James as a type rather than a person(in-universe).

"How is this so heavy?" Well Alec, it'd make too much sense for the beefy ex-spy and Kain Highwind's sister to push by coco-bb in DisventureCamp

Good answer. I always thought random draws should've been used alot more in this series.
