I enjoyed the ending but I can't stop thinking about how it is/was to be fused with Golb for Betty. Like? Was it painful? Was she fighting to keep him in control? Or was she just. Chilling. Idk
I also like to think that there's a part in both of them that is still deeply in love with each other, but they have accepted that their relationship wasn't the best, and they also can't see each other because she is in,,, wherever Golb is.
And in this AU, with time, Betty slowly melts within Golb, losing her control/sanity, to the point where they end up being one and the same completely. Simon's presence helps her get a grip, but the more time she spends far away from him (and anyone else) she descends more and more. In the end, she fully "transcends" (whatever that means), perhaps reaching some sort of enlightenment, and becomes fully fused with Golb. But also somewhat fulfilled and happy (?) Like she found her purpose independently from Simon. But also she's kinda insane. And a chaos god who craves destruction. So yk.
Or, her love for Simon mixing with Golb, it could create this sort of fixation/fascination, observing him in every universe. It gets to a point where she has watched his every second on every universe, and craving more, she starts haunting Simon in his dreams.
I'm still building this AU so nothing is set on stone. Just thoughts (??
