#did derrick ever try to help out alvin??? he seems like the kinda guy that wouldnt tbh.

Screaming and crying and bawling and just. Fucking dying. Im getting all the sub events this time around and it turns out if you go back to the Leronde clinic, theres actually a scene where Alvin and Jude's dad talk and they name drop Exodus so much earlier than in the main story AND they dont beat around the bush about Alvin and him already knowing each other. I cant fucking believe it!!!! And Alvin defends Jude too!!!!! And says theyre friends and they trust each other!!!! And it makes the eventual betrayal hurt even worse AGAIN!!!!!!

#imagine getting that scene early enough on a first playthrough. THE SHOCK. THE COFUSION. #i just cant believe they mentioned exodus like that. youre not supposed to hear the name until xian du #they seem REAL acquainted with each other tho. more so than i expected. idk of any of the novels cover it #but i wonder how well alvin and derrick know each other. #like did derrick have history with either of alvin's parents or maybe gilland? obviously i know he knows gilland cuz who in exodus wouldnt? #but like. i mean before they got stranded. or did derrick help treat alvin's mom in the early days of her being sick before he left??? #did derrick ever try to help out alvin??? he seems like the kinda guy that wouldnt tbh. #just fuckin imagine youre a doctor on a cruise that crosses an impassable barrier in the ocean and everyone on the ship #starts a terrorist group to try to get home. you included. and the little 4yo kid with a sick mom whose uncle started this shit #is raised basically as a killing machine and nothing else. and one day youre like. welp. peace out. #and 20 years later when youve got youre own son. you find out hes become best friend with that now grown up killing machine kid #and the guy's telling you to not be so hard on your son while neither of you can say in front of him that youre terrorists. #like derrick sucks as a person. no doubt. but his life is so fucking funny!!!! like thats what you get bitch!!! #personal
