i have too many thoughts on the deleted jackienat scene for a girl who's supposed to be enjoying her birthday lol. i think at the root of it all, it's highly likely that when the actresses breathed life into the characters, and scenes got improvised, some things just stopped making sense for characters to do. including good things, like with jackie's 'i love you' to shauna! and i think this is the case for natalie looking at jackie with hatred before leaving her out in the cold. maybe at one point in her early stages of characterization it made sense, but clearly the people on the show didn't think that way anymore at some point, hence the cut. also ngl people taking this deleted scene, which for all we know didn't even make it into the final script, as some sort of 'gotchu' for jackienat enjoyers ( romantic or otherwise ) is weird as hell to me. like, it was removed for a reason.

I like the theory that Eri is either Emmet's daughter or a descendant of Ingo but I raise you this:
Ingo had been in Hisui for a total of five years, three more years than Akari/Dawn. In that time frame, he'd fallen for Zisu and eventually married her. After everything has calmed down and the village and clans have finally gotten along better, they decide to try to make a family. And at the same time, Akari has finally finished the pokedex. Arceus offers to take her home after the official publication of the pokedex as it signifies her mission finally being complete. They even restore her memories. Akari, now going by Dawn because, again, memories are back, asks Them to also restore Ingo's. Arceus does as such and then offers to take Ingo home, too. He's intrigued. He's aching to see his brother and friends and the station again now that he remembers. But there's Zisu. And now their daughter Eri, who'd been born 5 weeks too early. He couldn't just leave them, especially with how scared and worried Zisu was for Eri's health. He's prepared to tell her he was staying, refuse Arceus' offer, but Zisu, straightforward and stubborn as she is, tells him to go. And take Eri with him. Her reason being; "whatever this future you described to me is, maybe they have the stuff to help her? So please. Take her with you. She's gotta have a better chance of living there than here!" She pleaded. She broke down in tears, something she doesn't usually do, or tries not to anyway. After much serious talking, he agrees. He's sad to leave her, but he knows she's strong. So, together, they wrap her up in warm layers to combat the early winter air. And Ingo and Dawn departs to his destination— the Temple of Sinnoh. And so, Arceus takes them home. They're bombarded by press once word gets out. I mean the missing champion coming back in strange clothes with the missing, long presumed dead, Subway Boss who's also holding a baby? Yeah, that would definitely make the news lol. But in the end, Eri got modern medical attention and went on to have a very healthy childhood.
Skip seventeen years, and here we are. Eri is studying abroad. Ingo is working the station with his brother still. Ingo doesn't talk about his time in Hisui. He doesn't talk about Zisu to Eri in full, as it would be.... a lot to explain why she can't meet her.

[Act 3, post vampire spawn ambush, very serious tone as Idalia's (Tav) and Astarion's conflicting ideas start simemring again, as it always does with the Ascencion question.]
Astarion: "You're the only one. Other people dont have a heart like you. Youre you. Nobody is like that."
Idalia: (Trying really really hard to not make a joke out of that, given its. Unfortunate timing. In this rare state of weakness, shes ((unfortunately)) not subtle about it)
Astarion: (Completely Exasperated, how did he not see this coming*) "I-- oh my gods, Idalia, please, im trying to be genuine here. can you not right now"
*he cant be mad at her bc hed make the same joke given the circumstances.
Anyway im in Act 3, and as i finish other companion quests, tensions r high between the ex-schakled lovebirds here bc they Still Cant See Eye To Eye on Astarions opportunity for Ascencion/Idalias opportunity to inflict the same Heart-stealing curse that was done to her. Despite everything theyve come to compromise on, learn from eachother, the repertoire that theyve built, the fact that these two bitches sleep in the same gd quarters bc theyre so used to cuddling/sleeping after feeding that they have a hard time SLEEPING APART (i hate them. hate them so.much oh my god), that one dissagreement has been a point of contention since theyve met, and things... havent realky changed. Not from the outside looks of it, anyway.

For a character who is literally the only other Key of Kresnik that we know about, it is crazy how little we know about Cornelia as a person. We don’t even know how her own son felt about her because all Julius says about her is that she’s dead and he only remembers being looked after by Claudia, presumably even when Cornelia was still alive. I thought Cornelia was just your generic nice dead wife and nice dead mother but then. She was 22. Bisley was 15. The game argues that he did legit love her even after her death. What the hell did Claudia think, seeing her older sister have a child with a boy even younger than Claudia herself? What does Julius think about his mother? It doesn’t seem like he really thinks about her at all, he only seems to have good memories of Claudia and his resentment of Bisley has little to do with Cornelia’s death. Or maybe it’s the guilt of having killed Claudia and taking in Ludger that makes Julius fixate more on her.
I have so many questions and I can only make up answers!
