nice use of your cover story there, champ π
i'm going to be honest with you all. i don't know if i can spend the next two or so years until d5 listening to everyone bending over backwards to theorise that ella and/or charming are secretly evil and pulled the prank on bridget. i really don't. i might blow up.
"but uliana couldn't have opened the book" it was probably morgie. y'know, the person who, according to the royals and villains book is desperate for uliana's validation and 'not the most liked' in his group. and thus the person uliana probably made open the book in the og timeline just incase it did fuck them up. "what if ella or charming were tricked by-" this is ella who would tell uliana to her face to get fucked and charming who thought it was impressive they "bested" uliana. in what world are they doing fuck all for her. "but ella was grounded and the prank didn't happen!" i don't know how to tell you this but ella being forbidden to go to the ball is actually the plot of cinderella.
there is some rhetorical term to describe ashihara's decision to make suwa a prominent figure for osamu's journey at the beginning of both the rank war and the away mission test arcs...
like even though suwa is playing seemingly opposite roles (an opponent in the rank wars, an ally in the away mission test), he's ultimately serving the same role in the narrative: he's helping osamu grow as an agent and as a captain.
in the rank wars, he (along with arafune) was osamu's first rank war opponent. rhetorically speaking, he was there to kickstart osamu's journey into team-strategy.
then in the away-mission, he was the captain of the squad osamu was assigned to -- serving as a guide for osamu to learn the mechanics of an away-mission/learning how to work with agents he's unfamiliar with/even acting as a role model with him being the more experienced captain/etc etc etc
i think it's also interesting to note that suwa being the first of something for the the betterment of his juniors also literally happened IN the story when he got turned into a trion cube during the aftokrator invasion arc. in one of the trivia/author notes or whatever ashihara literally said that "[Suwa would] feel bad for Kitora or Chika if they were to be teased for [being turned into a trion cube], so it doesnβt really matter if itβs happening to him."
there is no point to this post. i just think suwa is neat. mama suwa real? idk

Only in Descendants will you find every form of media made of it contradicting each other in various ways, I swear.
Iβm a huge Disney fan but my favorites are Disney princesses, Mickey and friends Descendants and Lab Rats. Some of my favorite shows are Detentionaire, World Trigger, Blue Lock and The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. I also LOVE music my favorite albums are Lemonade by BeyoncΓ©, Hello my Name Is by Bridgit Mendler, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess by Chappell Roan and Melodrama by Lorde. Some miscellaneous interests are Scooby Doo, Legendborn by Tracy Deonn, Wonder Woman and Newsies.
One of my hottest takes is that I think the mystery and more specifically the transition from a casual mystery show to a more thrilling and serious one was done much better in Detentionaire compared to Mystery Incorporated
To the people saying "Jason wouldn't have jumped into tartarus for Piper, like Percy did for Annabeth" as a way to demean him. Jason, plunged into the sky from the grand canyon to catch Piper in the first few pages of the lost hero without even knowing who she was, and without the knowledge that he could fly. so he basically jumped to his death attempting to catch her. In the first few pages of his journey, he didn't mind dying to save Piper, and ironically, that's also what he did in the last few pages of his journey. Y'all just be making the most out of pocket claims abt jason fr

watching/rewatching a show when you already have an established favorite character is great because every time they come on screen it's like
