me last weekend, about to see Nope: hehe hoohoo, this’ll fuck me up good
me, after watching Nope: This thing punched through every callus ever hardened over the calcified pit of my desensitized horror movie-saturated heart, grew an entirely new spectrum of terror, then beat me into a fine pulp with it. My brain chemistry is permanently altered and I can never trust the sky again. The screaming. God, please, please, the screaming. All of them up, in a line, shrunk in flesh and light, and still screaming,
me, less than a week later, about to see Nope: hehe hoohoo, this’ll fuck me up good

thinking of older jordan who has joined the seven they'd be like maeve was. a lot jaded from all they've seen but still good at heart. kinda lost their hope of changing the world, but still trying their hardest whenever they can. turns to alcohol n drugs and partying to drown out the fact that they're a fuckin token to vought like a pat on the back for being inclusive and maybe if they'd had more self love back then they'd have rejected the offer to be here but they're still that same scared teenager who needs praise so bad and sometimes when they go on Twitter and see people commending them it makes them smile even if it makes them sick too because they dont deserve the praise when they aren't actually being a true hero. and - maybe when someone new comes into the seven - someone like you - brimming with hope and starshine, still with that spark in your eye, thinking you can be a fucking hero and save the day, maybe they fucking hate you. maybe they're mean and cutting at first because they can't stand looking at you and seeing how they were in college.
maybe all the changes one night when you're both at the same club and someone gets hurt and you both get a message from your supervisors to leave it, to let the bad guy go, but you don't follow orders - you disobey. and maybe jordan stands there in the flashing lights outside of the club as they stare after you before cursing and running to help. maybe the shift happens then, when its a shared secret, your joined heroism that night, because they'd never gone against orders before even though they've wanted to their whole lives.
they're softer then. more protective, as they take you under their wing, because you're still young, still new, and they don't want that light extinguished by the other five in the seven, or your uppers. they're like the electric fence that shocks anybody who tries to touch you, the loyal gaurd dog at your side who comes to heel, with a hand at the small of your back, ready to bite into the flesh of those who'd try to tell you you can't be a hero. you can be, and you are. at least to them, anyway.

It’s interesting to see the incredibly cynical corporate world of The Boys filtered through a while main cast where everyone is basically where Starlight was in early season 1.
Definitely some generational commentary there (hence the title) with a cast full of Gen Y/Gen Alpha- whatever kids who all know the world is irrevocably fucked up by previous generations, and who try to actually make the world a better place despite being pitted against each other in a rat race designed by the Olds.
It’s the kind of perspective shift that you always want from a spin off, and which confirms there’s still a lot more to say with this world, if not necessarily with the cast we started with.
