Imagine after ELEVEN YEARS she announces a new spin off series to close out a characters story who was originally supposed to die, and then at 1am on a random Wednesday SAYS SHES WRITING TWO MORE BOOKS AND THEYRE ABOUT KEVIN FUCKING DAY
People take Andrew "clocking" Jeremy to mean Andrew instantly knew he was gay, but I don't think that's right. Because of Jeremy's scandal, it's pretty common knowledge that he is gay. Everyone already knows it. I'm sure Andrew knew that as well.
I think what Andrew clocked is that Jeremy has it bad for Jean and vice versa. He could have cut through that tension with a butter knife.
superbat might not be everyone's cup of tea but you have to admit "person who wears glasses as their secret identity but doesn't need them" and "person who avoids wearing glasses until they absolutely have to" is a hilarious dynamic for a relationship.
Thinking about how often Jean quotes Neil to himself to feel safe. Thinking about Jean saying to Jeremy you don’t have to trust him because I do. Thinking of how Nora said if Neil had been a raven when he was supposed to be he could have never left Jean alone even after Kevin did. Thinking about Neil and his ‘one of us has to survive this, and it’s going to be him’ mentality taking root and growing into everyone he cares about. Including Jean. Thinking about misplaced forever partners. Thinking about two kids who had no one but each other in every version of the story except for the one we got, so we see this fractured longing version instead and they’re so much better off, but there’s something missing too.
Kevin Day girlies really playing the long game
Don’t worry, bud, Bruce will get it eventually…
Sometimes I imagine Andrew mumbling “you were supposed to be a side effect of the medication” and Neil laughing like this 🥹
