I Just Wanna Talk About Finn For A Minute And His Importance To Fionna And Cake, Or More Specifically

I just wanna talk about Finn for a minute and his importance to Fionna and Cake, or more specifically Simon.

Both of them are going through very very similar things right now. Simon lost the love of his life, Bety, and he's not able to move on. This is very evident from the fact that he is trying to summon Golb and how depressed he is right now. Finn also lost someone very important to him. He lost his brother and he is also not able to move on. In the Distant lands special Finn literally says that he was never able to move on from Jake's death. With them both suffereing through basically the same thing and having known each other for so long, it's obvious that they would both become very close and confide in each other to help the other through the pain they are feeling.

But, Finn has support systems he can go to. He is able to connect to the world he is in better because he grew up there. He has a better reputation then Simon does and a better understanding of the world. Simon is mentally isolated right now. He's a normal dude living in a magical world and no one else around him can relate to that, not even Finn. This separation from everyone else is expressed through everything about Simon. From the way he talks, to the way he dresses, the things he's interested in, even his color pallet.

Finn's important to the show to demonstrate Simon's separation. And if I can be delulu for a minute, I think that having Simon be around someone going through the same thing while being able to get so much support from everyone around him will worsen his mental state. Because also remember, Finn has direct friends and family. We see him with his nephew in the first couple of seconds he was on screen. He talks about how he's going to talk to Huntress Wizard. All at the same time, Simon has no one. Marci is there yes, but she can't be there for him like he needs, she has her own life. At the end of the day Simon's alone.

I think it's clever for the writers to introduce this opposition. It's a great way to emphisize what Simon's going through and bring back a great character. It makes me sad to see Simon like this though, I just want him to be happy :'(

Ive been saying this since I watched the show for the first time. I love each of their characters, just not together. they're toxic.

for the love of god everyone shut up about mattelektra being cute, as someone who has been in a situationship with their ex/ex-best friend, head over heels in love, you will overlook manipulation, abuse, pretty much all of the red flags just to stay for whatever light they have.

you will lose yourself in the process, burn bridges and meaningful friendships to be with someone who only intends to use you and take advantage of your emotions for their betterment. that's how shitty toxic love is.

matt cut off everyone he loved and then stayed in a building that imploded for elektra, he knew he was going to get himself killed - how is any of this cute? did matt love elektra? yes! but was their relationship healthy or normal in the slightest? no, babes stop romanticizing their relationship

just finished the first two episodes of fionna and cake and can i just say the way they wrote finn in relation to simon is so. its so sad. finn spent so long in the series not being able to connect with anyone because he knew he was the only human. and even though simon is back to normal he doesnt know how to relate to finn or any of the other humans that have had to survive in the world like this. its just such bitter irony

and finn really did try n connect with him too. but before finn is human he’s also basically been raised to be a warrior all his life and doesnt know much else. u can also see hes also still kinda grieving the loss of jake?? bcs hes really desperate for companionship even with people who are disinterested in questing with him. its so fucking sad bro

honestly same. their ending had such an impact and was such a fitting ending for them both. it would be such a terrible choice for the writers to undo it.

This is going to make me sound like such an asshole but I really hope Simon and Betty don't like magically reunite or something. The ending of the show made it plain to me at least that Betty CANNOT be back, she's literally on a different plane of existence and perception at this point. She's a chaos god. She's probably not even really Betty anymore, but some unholy combo of herself and Golb. The ending to Simon and Betty's relationship in the original show had flaws, but I think if their going to expand on Simon as a character, it would be redundant to just... Have Betty be magically summoned back and then happily ever after. It would be underwhelming. I think it would be best if they stayed focused on Simon overcoming his grief and trauma, or at least learning how to deal with it as a start.
