i am fascinated with john rider. he's been dead since the beginning, and yet he haunts the narrative. i will never know what he was thinking. yet, something seems to be wrong with him, and i don't know what is, but it compels me

Ok but... but... the new john-saves-yashas-life-scene is not only so much more intimate, but also it goes from being coincidence to yasha's own fault? Like... pls correct me if I'm wrong, it's been a while, but, doesn't the spider just sort crawl onto yasha and there's not really anything he can do about it because it would bite? And john notices, bc he always knows yasha, and he knows something is off. But in s3, the near-death-experience is yasha's fault because he is jumpy and scared and has no poker face at all, and I don't know what this means, I just thought of it...

Yassen, squinting at Alex's shopping list: You really are your father's son

Imagine John and Yassen sat writing those fake love letters to Julia Rothman together, a little bit drunk and in absolute stitches laughing about it

Angst-filled idea
John Rider's (and possibly Helen's) death was faked.
The more angsty version would be if he faked his own death and decided not to go back for Alex. Maybe he thought Alex would be better off without him. Maybe he thought it would be too risky for him, personally.
Or, still tragic, MI6 or Scorpia faked his death and have been holding him prisoner.
Anyway, somehow, he reunites with Alex.
Alex is not okay. But he's about to get worse, because he mentions how after Yassen had killed Ian, MI6 had started using Alex. And John Rider asks, "Who's Ian?"
John Rider never had a brother.

So this is my first digital art. I can't quite get the hang of faces quite yet when drawing on a tablet. When I get the skill of faces down, I'll deffo add to this but for now here's my little sketch. Not amazing but gotta start somewhere.

There aren’t nearly enough fics where Alex and MI6’s actions are exposed to the world. Think of the potential! The reactions! The politics! The d r a m a

it just occurred to me, martin wilby is the alex rider tv show's ash. there's a line in season 1 where the department is talking about wilby being responsible for ian's death and how ian “thought the world of him.”
very similar to how ash was responsible for john (and helen's) death, but john very clearly loved the guy. enough to make him alex's godfather and save his life. another very interesting parallel for the rider brothers.
ash and wilby are different to each other however. at least ash had somewhat more of a reason to join scorpia? a vendetta against alan blunt. wilby just straight up wanted money. yassen gregorovich stabbed both of them though.

Okay, but imagine I was a Scorpia agent who was insignificant to your mission but you saved my life in Nicaragua, 18 years ago
