This might be an unpopular opinion, (but this fandom is on life support so who cares) but I personally wish Ace hadn’t killed Novas parents. To me, there’s something so much more compelling with having Nova learn to realize that just because the people who loved her and cared for her genuinely love her, doesn’t mean they aren’t bad people who should be stopped. Idk I felt like making Ace be responsible for her families death makes her decision to turn against Ace almost too easy? And it makes Ace as a character less interesting.
Give me the crazed violent anarchist who cares about his family, the Ace who took in his niece, used his powers to ring bells just to make this traumatized girl laugh. And then show me that girl all grown up, realizing her wise, stern, but always loving uncle is wrong and needs to be stopped, and turning against him to do good and make her dead family proud, even if it means betraying the man who raised her.
Like give me the ANGST. Give me the tortured conflict between good and evil. This series is all about shades of gray and having Ace kill his own brother and not love his niece makes things WAY too easy and takes all of that away.

One thing that makes me so confused about if Ace Anarchy was ALWAYS planned to be the cause of Nova's family's death, is this.
I do not understand why he'd bother to bring a plastic bag, with the medication he said he'd bring for Evie, if he was planning on all of them being dead.
It can't be for an alibi bc, last I checked, the Renegades knew who he was and he wasn't hiding his identity
If Marissa Meyer planned from the beginning that Ace would turn his back on them, then why this??
Is Nova misremembering? Was the medicine for someone else? But why would that be the case?

Unpopular opinion: Lover actually is an album that fits Renegades so well.
THIS MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS SO BE CAUTIOUS
I forgot that you existed: Nova to Ace (at some point I hope)
Lover: Ruby and Oscar cause of the vibes
The man: Nova
The archer: Nova (maybe even Oscar because of the descriptions Nova gives about him at the gala when he asks her about Ruby)
I think he knows: "And boy he's so obsessed with me, and boy I understand" This gave me Nova with Adrian vibes
Miss Americana and the Heartbreak Prince: "They whisper in the hallway she´s a bad, bad girl" Nova and Adrian again
Paper rings: SPOILERS OF SUPERNOVA'S ENDING "I like shiny things but ill marry you with paper rings" Evie and Max, it's them (hopefully)
Cornelia Street: Ruby and Oscar, Nova and Adrian and hopefully their little siblings, and Danna and Narcissa.
Death by a thousand cuts: Nova to Ace
London Boy: "Boy I fancy you" Nova and Adrian vibes
False god: Nova and Adrian when they grow up HABHJSHHSHS
Afterglow: NOVA AND ADRIAN ONLY THEM IF YOU DISAGREE ARGUE WITH THE WALL THIS SONG BELONGS ONLY TO THEM
ME!: idc Adrian, Ruby, and Oscar would love this song
It's nice to have a friend: Adrian, Nova, Ruby, Oscar, and Danna, love their friend group
Daylight: Nova and Adrian.

The Renegade Council: What the- you can’t be here. You’re dead. We literally saw you die.
Ace Anarchy: Death is a social construct.

Altered my art style here so that David didn't look too cartoony and the other characters followed suit.
Under the cut I'm just rambling it isn't too organized but, there's that if you like reading my rambles
In a lot of ways I do think Maggie and her uncle share parallels from: their powers, antagonistic roles they've taken on and presumably will continue to take on, and being wronged by the system they live in due to their powers.
I like the idea a lot but feel more than conflicted about how Ace was written. He was seemingly multi dimensional earlier on in the books and became more stereotypical, which, when I compare to Maggie who shares similarities but is still coming out of the trilogy with sympathetic qualities is hard.
On one hand, Maggie lost everything because of him and yet is seemingly becoming very similar to him. On the other, Ace could have been handled so much better and he could still be the antagonist. I'm tired and won't go in detail in all the ways he could've been different but if his whole thing was about vengeance then hit that home by actually caring and loving the people in his life until they betray him and that overrides any rational about if they deserve it.
Putting that tangent aside, possible future books could expand on Maggie and if she discovered her connection to Ace Anarchy, I wonder how it'd unravel that she is so directly similar to the man that paid for her family's murderer. And how the conflict between Alec and David would compare to Nova and Evie.
Definitely different but I just gotta wonder
Btw here's a version where I tried to add text from the book but I don't know if it nailed the dot on the similarities between Maggie and her uncle

Relating Midnights to Renegades
Warning this might be long and have spoilers for the entire trilogy
This song talks about a private (maybe even secret) relationship.
How can this be related to Nova and Adrian? Nova could have felt like this when she was in Adrian's basement "staring at the ceiling with you"
"I've been under scrutiny You handle it beautifully All this shit is new to me" She has been observing everything the Renegades (including Adrian) did, and she felt so good in the jungle with him, everything was new to her, to feel safe, comfortable talking about her traumas, and feeling like she was important and unique enough for someone to make her a dream come true (literally)
"I feel the lavender haze creepin' up on me" when she falls asleep and the feeling of need that was growing inside her, the necessity of that to be real, to be more than just a little time. "Surreal, I'm damned if I do give a damn what people say" THE ENTIRE JUNGLE SCENE WAS SURREAL TO EVERYONE, and yes, was damned when she thought about her mission with the anarchist, why she was there, not to spend a nice time with Adrian.
"I just wanna stay in that lavender haze" "For a moment, for the slightest of moments she wished to stay there, to cuddle with Adrian on the sofa and sleep some more time" or something like that, the point is clear anyway.
"All they keep askin' me Is if I'm gonna be your bride The only kind of girl they see Is a one-night or a wife" the Anarchyst, maybe. This can go along with the "1950's shit they want from me", basically the plan was she needed to make Adrian fall in love with her.
"I find it dizzying They're bringin' up my history But you aren't even listening" The days Nova was in Cragmoor, you can´t tell me there weren't rumors about her even if it isn't mentioned in the books, I bet everyone was saying stupid things about why she had done it and yk how rumors are, but Adrian never paid them so much attention, bc even though she was Nightmare he still believe he at least knew some part of her, and Nova wouldn't have liked to know that everyone was talking about her.
"I just need this love spiral" She just wanted their love to work so badly.
"Get it off your chest Get it off my desk" Just get done with it and be happy with no more concerns
And that's all. Hope i'll do another one soon

aspec terms for beginners!
since it's trending right now, i feel like it might be helpful to clear up some basic aspec (but particularly aromantic, as we are the center of attention currently) terms. if you have absolutely any questions, i would be happy to answer, either in the replies, dms, or my inbox!
★・・・・・・★
the split attraction model (SAM): a model of human behavior that posits that, for some people, romantic and sexual attraction are not the same.
[most often this will come in the form of someone being aspec on one axis and allo (not aspec) on another. for example, a biromantic asexual may be romantically attracted to two or more genders, but sexually attracted to none. some people may even use SAM for allo identities– a bisexual lesbian may be sexually attracted to multiple genders, but only romantically attracted to women (note that this is not the only way that someone can be an mspec lesbian, just one way!). the SAM does not apply to everybody, not even all aspecs! there are non-SAM aros, for instance, who do not differentiate their aromanticism from their sexuality.]
aspec: a collection of queer spectrums centered around the lack of a certain attraction or identity. the most common spectrums under the aspec umbrella are asexual, aromantic, agender, and aplatonic, though there are many other ways to be aspec.
asexual: experiencing little to no sexual attraction.
[aces can still have sex– whether its because they experience some amount of sexual attraction or they just want to participate in sex because they find the act appealing in some other way. that being said, there are still plenty of aces who have not and will never have sex. it is a spectrum.]
aromantic: experiencing little to no romantic attraction.
[aros can still have romantic partners– whether its because they experience some amount of romantic attraction or they just find relationships appealing in some other way. that being said, there are still plenty of aros who have not and will never be in a romantic relationship. it is a spectrum.]
agender: having no gender or little relation to any gender.
aplatonic: experiencing little to no platonic attraction.
[similarly to aros and aces, apls can still form friendships if they so desire– whether its because they experience some amount of platonic attraction or they find friendships appealing in some other way.]
aroallo: combination of aromantic and allosexual– allosexual being someone who fully experiences sexual attraction. an aroallo, then, is someone who is aromantic but not asexual. aroallos often do not have a standard relationship with sex due to its romantic connotations and the stigma against loveless sex. someone having sex with someone else they do not love does not inherently make them aroallo, much in the same way that having a nonsexual relationship with a partner doesn't inherently make either participant asexual.
aroace: someone who is both aromantic and asexual. because aro and ace are both spectrums, an aroace may still experience some amount of attraction on either or both of those spectrums, or they may experience attraction of some other kind (platonic, tertiary, etc.), and that attraction may be only for a certain gender or genders– these are known as oriented aroaces.
queerplatonic relationship: a type of relationship that is defined only by the people within it. i have a post dedicated to explaining this in larger detail.
partnering: an aspec (usually aromantic) person who has and/or desires to have a partnership or multiple partnerships– romantic, queerplatonic, or otherwise.
non-partnering: an aspec (usually aromantic) person who has no desire to form a partnership of any kind.
romance/sex/plato favorable: an aspec who desires or would not reject a romantic, sexual, or platonic relationship. they are also generally not particularly bothered by seeing these relationships in their day-to-day.
romance/sex/plato repulsed: an aspec who does not desire a romantic, sexual, or platonic relationship and generally does not like seeing those relationships in their day-to-day. [x] repulsed people are not necessarily judgemental towards people who desire or participate in those relationships, they just do not desire them for themselves. repulsion often takes the form of discomfort or annoyance. [x] repulsed people are not necessarily cruel sticks-in-the-mud– they are perfectly capable of being respectful, and they very often are. repulsion does not always stem from trauma, though it certainly can.
romance/sex/plato positive: not to be confused with favorability, [x] positivity is the belief that romance, sex, and platonic relationships are human rights that should be supported and uplifted. someone can be [x] repulsed and [x] positive at the same time, because favorability/repulsion revolves around the self, and positivity/negativity extends to others.
sex/romance/plato negative: not to be confused with repulsion, [x] negativity is an inherently judgemental and harmful ideology. most commonly in the form of sex negativity, these ideologies are centered around the opposition to or personal judgement of people who engage in romance, sex, or platonic relationships. sex negativity in particular is embedded in western white supremacist societies and it is important for aspecs not to play into that.
those are the basics, but i have more information below the cut!
★・・・・・・★
> how are aspecs queer?
aspecs are queer because "queer" does not only mean LGBT. queer theory is about far more than just LGBT people– though they are undeniably a large part of it– queerness is any subversion of the traditional cisheteronormative standard. this includes things that cishets may take part in/identify with, because you do not have to be LGBT to subvert those standards. cishets who are gender-nonconforming are queer, for example. a good rule of thumb is that if you have to explain what you whole deal is to cishets, you're queer. queer does mean strange, after all.
traditional cisheteronormative conceptions of attraction, gender, and relationships do not account for aspecs. it is expected that everyone will one day form a traditional partnership with one other person, and that relationship will include sex (even if only for procreation, under some dogmas). virginity past a certain age is seen as a point of shame and something indicative of a larger problem in someone– in men, a red flag even. people past 30 without a relationship are pitied. our economic structure is build for couples and families– it's near impossible for someone to live comfortably alone. romance, friendship, and love are placed on a pedestal, treated as the meaning of life, the best thing anyone could ever experience. "love is the point of everything," as many posts on this site like to claim. people who reject these ideas are undeniably queer.
> i can get behind aros and aces, but the whole "aplatonic" thing feels like a stretch to me. how is not having friends queer? "platonic attraction" isn't even real.
aplatonicism is more than just "not having friends," and many apls have friends anyway, much in the same way that aros can date and aces can have sex. someone who does not have friends is not inherently aplatonic, they only are if they identify that little-to-no platonic attraction in themselves and choose to label themselves that way (just like how virgins aren't inherently asexual). still, apls who don't have friends exist, and they are all queer. what is a greater subversion of traditional cisheteronormative relationship structures than an outright rejection of what's seen as the most basic, fundamental relationship our culture has to offer?
you may not feel that platonic attraction is a distinct phenomenon in your own experience, and that's fine! ultimately, a lot of aspec terms exist for the utility and comfort of aspecs themselves. the SAM isn't for everyone, and platonic attraction isn't for everyone either. you do not have the authority to tell people what their own experiences are, nor should you care.
> i think it's sad that you're limiting yourself with these labels. you'll find someone one day!
for the broad majority of aspecs, our identities are not self-disciplinary, nor are they necessarily permanent. all queer people are capable of misunderstanding their identity or having a fluid identity– it is not a problem unique to being aspec. that being said, a lot of us may always be aspec and completely happy with it. being aspec is not a tragedy. the only thing i don't like about being aromantic is the judgement i receive from other people about it. non-partnering aspecs are not "missing out" on anything, because we don't even want the things we're rejecting in the first place. many of us are romance/sex/plato repulsed and are far more happy engaging with the world and with other people in different ways, because there is so, so much more to life than relationships, and it's wrong to presume that relationships are universally fit for everybody. telling an aspec that they'll find "the right person" one day is no different from telling a lesbian she'll find "the right man" one day. there is no "right person" for an aspec just as there's no "right man" for a lesbian. a lesbian is not "missing out" on a heterosexual relationship just because it's culturally perceived as superior and more fulfilling.
[disclaimer before anyone tries to do a "gotcha," i'm talking about a lesbian who is fully not attracted to men in any way. it's not like homophobes know the intricacies of gender identity and nonconformity as it pertains to homosexuality anyways.]
lastly, i wanna give a special shout out to the loveless aros and the relationship anarchists.
loveless aros are those who either feel little-to-no love as they understand it, or they are someone who supports the de-centering of love. they're worthy of a whole post of their own, but in summary: the loveless experience is all about finding joy in yourself and the countless things our world has to offer that are not dependent on the vague idea of love.
relationship anarchy is another concept worthy of its own post, but in essence it's an ideology aimed at abolishing the standard hierarchy of relationships (in the USA, depending on who you ask, its typically friendship < family < romantic partnership or friendship < romantic partnership < family) and allowing everyone the autonomy to define their relationships for themselves.
if i made any mistakes, let me know! and of course i'm willing to answer any questions anyone may have. :-3 thanks for reading my long ass post!
