I'm sorry, could you maybe delete this, please? I didn't realize how long it got, and I think I should repost it in a collapsed comment.

My personal rule is that I can't read a fic if Darcy appears in it but Jane doesn't. What reasoning could you possibly have for that?

I think it's true for most open world games, period. There's so many interlocking pieces and factors and any one of them could break.

N!S: I love this show and I've been a really big fan ever since S2.

Secret: I think a lot of the fans who have since abandoned the show are delusional. Not because I think it's bad that they outgrew it or lost interest, but because they act like the first two seasons were amazeballs and that only the later seasons have issues. The show has always relied on the strength of the actors to carry it, because frankly the writing and plotting is pretty average. Whenever they whine about characters being put in unnecessarily sexy situatiosn or the fact that a lot of the actors drop the show to move onto better projects, I want to ask them what they expected from an MTV remake of a cheesy 80s movie. To be perfectly honest, I found the first two seasons poorly paced, with plot stretched too thin so they drag out ~dramatic~ romantic moments. Yes, there are massive plot holes and Jeff Davies skips over a lot of heavy emotional fallout to keep the show moving forward but again, MTV show. You knew what you were getting into.

I think the only real noticible differece is that the new cast clearly doesn't have the same chemistry as the old, and it's showing up on screen. I miss the characters too, but some people think characters leaving is part of some evil conspiracy of Davies being terrible instead of actors trying to have careers.

B!S: I think most of this hate is thinly veiled "my fanon after S2 didn't come true because Derek isn't a growly Alpha, Stiles isn't pack mom and Scott is portrayed as the hero instead of a bumbling fool, therefore EVERYTHING IS TERRIBLE." I love those fics too, but come on!

Image: A cover of one of the Archie comics collections. Dilton is firing a huge snowball out of a catapult at Archie, who is sitting on the ground covered in snow, while Betty stands nearby holding two regular sized snowballs. Archie is looking at Betty angrily, declaring "Dilton does not fight fair!"

Text: I was really into these comics as a kid, and Betty was always my favorite character. And because I wanted her to be happy, I wound up headcanoning that she would ultimately wind up with Dilton. She deserved way better than Archie, and Dilton seemed like the best option out of all the available guys.

Of course, now I'm wondering if I was identifying with her sweet nature and desire to be a writer, and projecting my own preferences for guys onto her. Either way, though, I still think Archie isn't that great a catch.

Yeah, I've definitely done that. It's a fun little mental game.

I agree with a lot of the thought process here - it is probably more thematically interesting than the Rebellion stuff.

But I don't see any reason to think that they were good men, either in the way they're described in the SW fiction, or in our understanding of society and morality IRL. They were not evil in the same way as Palpatine, certainly, but that's not the same as being good.
